Introduction: Due to the limited studies in the field of shivering after anesthesia in thyroidectomy surgeries, on the one hand, and different factors involved in the development of shivering in studies performed, on the other hand, and more sensitivity after thyroidectomy surgery to the hypothermia complications, the evaluation of the prevalence of postoperative shivering in children and determining the factors involved in its development was designed to use the results of the study to improve the anesthesia quality after thyroidectomy.Materials and Methods: This study was performed between 2019 and 2020 with the participation of 100 patients candidates for thyroidectomy in the hospitals of Tabriz University of Medical Sciences. The prevalence of postoperative shivering in these patients was measured using an instrument for determining shivering after anesthesia and the results were reported.Results: Prevalence of shivering in this study was 5% (6 patients). There was no significant difference between the two age groups and sex in terms of the prevalence of shivering. The prevalence of shivering was significantly lower in the intravenous anesthesia group (p<0.05). Also, in patients who received premedication anesthesia, the prevalence of shivering was significantly lower than patients who did not receive premedication (p<0.05).Conclusion: The results of this study showed that the overall prevalence of shivering after thyroidectomy is the same as other surgeries. In addition, the prevalence of shivering after thyroidectomy is related to the patient's body temperature, recovery room temperature, receiving premedication, and type of anesthesia.

Introduction: The importance of examining the factors associated with cholelithiasis is to prevent the formation of gallstones in people as much as possible so that they do not need reoperation for cholecystectomy or, if necessary, remove the gallbladder during obesity surgery and impose the reoperation risk on the patient. Therefore, the present study investigates the risk factors, precursors of gallstones, and the need for prophylactic cholecystectomy during bariatric surgery.Materials and Methods: In this cross-sectional descriptive study, 150 patients who were candidates for cholecystectomy with a body mass index greater than 35 were evaluated. Cholelithiasis was evaluated based on the severity of obesity in patients.Results: Out of 23 people who had a history of gallstones and gallbladder surgery due to stones in the past, 19 (82.6%) had a history of weight loss and 4 (17.4%) had no history of weight loss. There was no significant relationship between the history of weight loss and gallstones in candidates for obesity surgery. In addition, no significant relationship was observed between the rate of weight loss in the past and the number of attempts to lose weight and gallstones in candidates for obesity surgery.Conclusion: In general, in the present study, the only factor associated with cholelithiasis in the subjects was H. pylori. In fact, people with obesity who are infected with the bacterium H. pylori are positive, they are more prone to cholelithiasis than others.

Adolescence is a critical period of life after childhood that causes certain changes in the body, motivations, emotions. According to Piaget, it occurs when a person moves from the stage of objective operations to formal operations of self-centeredness. At this stage, the adolescent has difficulty distinguishing between his or her own abstract views and those of others. One of the states of cognitive distortion in adolescents is the personal myth that at this stage he thinks is in the center of everyone's attention and has an impact on individual decisions and risky behaviors that can affect the general health of adolescents. In the present study, the relationship between personal myth, early maladaptive schemas and general health of third year male and female high school students in Islamshahr has been investigated. For this purpose, 300 students (136 boys and 164 girls) who were selected by cluster random sampling method answered three questionnaires of personal myth, Young's early maladaptive schemas and general health. Mean and standard deviation, Pearson correlation coefficient, stepwise multiple regression, independent t-test and multivariate analysis of variance were used to analyze the data. The results showed that there is a statistically positive and significant relationship between personal myth, early maladaptive schemas and general health, but a negative and significant relationship conceptually. According to the stepwise regression model, it was found that fourteen after the initial maladaptive schemas and personal myths were able to predict general health and were able to explain 90% of the variance of general health variables.

According to researchers, there is a part of the brain that is both for negative emotions and for positive emotions. Research has shown that people who are often happy are more active in the front of their frontal lobes, while people who are anxious are more active on the right side. The good news is that "you can" adjust your emotions through meditation and change the point of emotion in the brain. You will be happier if you meditate for about an hour a day, that is, 6 days a week and one hour a day for 8 weeks. In addition to happiness, you will gain more understanding and empathy with others, and your immune system will be strengthened. Meditation helps you to sleep deeper and with better quality by calming your mind and modulating hormones. When your sleep is deep and quality, growth hormones and melatonin are released in the body, both of which are anti-aging hormones. In addition, deep, quality sleep releases toxic proteins from the brain that, if left in the brain (due to poor sleep quality), reduce the ability to process information, solve problems, and be creative, and increase emotional responses. Also, meditation has an effective role in increasing the power of the mind. This process also increases the speed of learning by increasing your level of concentration and increases the power of memory, level of consciousness and the amount of emotion control and prevents the decrease of the mentioned cases with age.

The present study was conducted with the aim of investigating the spiritual status and organizational commitment of elementary school teachers. It was an applied survey study and its statistical population included all elementary school teachers of district 1 in Kerman City which included a total of 1050 subjects. Simple random sampling was used in this study and the sample size was 285 subjects. Two questionnaires were used for data collection: a researcher-made spirituality questionnaire that included 13 questions with a Likert Scale of 5 which was an extraction of Kenda nd Foreman's (2010) questionnaire and Allen and Mayer's organizational commitment questionnaire (1993) which included 18 questions with a Likert Scale of 5. The content validity and reliability of the questionnaires were estimated by Cronbach's alpha. Descriptive and inferential statistics including one sample t –test and regression test were used for data analysis. Results of the one sample t-test showed that the teachers had a high level of spirituality and organizational commitment. In addition, results of the regression test showed that spirituality has managed to predict 0.91 of the teachers' organizational commitment.

Objective: The aim of this study was to compare the quality of life, meaning of life, body image and mental health in two groups of postmenopausal and non-menopausal women with emphasis on their education. Methods: The statistical population included all postmenopausal and non-menopausal women. The statistical sample included 50 people, of whom 25 were postmenopausal and 25 were non-menopausal, who were selected through women's gatherings from among women who wanted to participate in the study. The General Health Questionnaire (GHQ-28), the Women's Quality of Life Questionnaire, the 12-item Stieger and fraser meaning of life questionnaire, the Physical Self-Description Questionnaire, and demographic characteristics were used. Data were analyzed by independent t-test and two-factor analysis of variance. Findings: indicate a significant difference between quality of life in postmenopausal and non-postmenopausal women with a diploma level, which means that the quality of life in non-postmenopausal women with a diploma is better than the quality of life in postmenopausal women with the same level of education. But the quality of life in women was not different from the level of primary and university education in these two groups (postmenopausal and non-menopausal women), so the higher the level of education of women, the better their quality of life. In this study, physical image, meaning of life and mental health were the same between postmenopausal and non-menopausal women and there was no significant difference, but the higher the level of education of both groups of women, the more desirable physical image and higher mental health.

The aim of the present study was to investigate the relationship between defense mechanisms and empathy on anxiety biological discharge channels in students of Islamic Azad University, Roodehen Branch. The research method was descriptive-correlational and the statistical population of this study included 170 students of Islamic Azad University, Roodehen Branch. Which were selected as the sample size using the available random sampling method. For data collection, three questionnaires predicting the discharge paths of Farhadi et al., Andrews DSQ defense styles and Toronto empathy questionnaire were used by Nathan Spring et al. In order to analyze the data in this study, descriptive statistics have been used in the first part. In the inferential section, in order to test the research hypotheses and questions, the Kolmogorov-Smirnov test was used to measure the normality of the data and multiple regression was used to test the research hypotheses. The results showed that defense mechanisms (developed, immature, psychotic) have a significant effect on empathy and the channels of discharge of striated, smooth and chaotic anxiety. Also, empathy has no significant effect on the discharge channel of striated, smooth and cognitive anxiety.
