<p>The Association of Health Literacy Level with Self-Care Behaviors and Glycemic Control in a Low Education Population with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus: A Cross-Sectional Study in Iran</p> | Khalil Maleki Chollou (https://openalex.org/A5067905326)|Saber Gaffari-fam (https://openalex.org/A5025821820)|Towhid Babazadeh (https://openalex.org/A5017588335)|Amin Daemi (https://openalex.org/A5001533332)|Ali Bahadori (https://openalex.org/A5065862679)|Sohrab Heidari (https://openalex.org/A5066496234) | 2,020 | Promoting Health Literacy (HL) can be a priority in strategic healthcare planning of the countries. Low HL is prevalent some societies which make barriers to successful self-care diseases. The aim this study was examine association with behaviors and glycemic control low education population type 2 diabetes mellitus.This cross-sectional conducted Sarab city, Iran. 192 participants were patients diagnosed as level education. Convenient sampling method applied chosen by their medical records health-care centers. To collect data valid reliable tool used based on dimensions behaviors. Using hierarchical logistic regression, possible variables assessed.The mean age 58.12 (±11.83) years. A 28.8% variation explained demographic (R= 0.288%; p-value<0.05). Furthermore, decision-making strongest predictor (β= 0.451). Approximately 80% HbA1c HL, behaviors, 0.804%; p-value<0.05).This revealed that predicted approximately one-fourth about eight-tenths population. These findings call for need interventional programs improve control. | article | en | Glycemic|Population|Medicine|Cross-sectional study|Logistic regression|Health literacy|Gerontology|Diabetes mellitus|Health care|Self care|Demography|Psychology|Family medicine|Environmental health|Internal medicine|Endocrinology|Pathology|Sociology|Economic growth|Economics | https://doi.org/10.2147/dmso.s253607 | {'openalex': 'https://openalex.org/W3024712948', 'doi': 'https://doi.org/10.2147/dmso.s253607', 'mag': '3024712948', 'pmid': 'https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/32547130', 'pmcid': 'https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/7245439'} | Iran | C144024400|C160735492 | Health care|Sociology | Diabetes, Metabolic Syndrome and Obesity: Targets and Therapy|Europe PMC (PubMed Central)|PubMed Central|PubMed |

<p>The Protective Role of Resilience in Emotional Exhaustion Among Dental Students at Clinical Levels</p> | Alla Alsharif (https://openalex.org/A5011290957) | 2,020 | The epidemic of burnout among dental students has been repeatedly documented. This study aimed to assess burnout, specifically emotional exhaustion (EE), and examined the impact protective risk psychological factors for EE clinical-level in Saudi Arabia (SA).A cross-sectional was conducted, using a convenience sample undergraduate who were recruited from five separate schools. A self-administered questionnaire distributed 500 obtain socio-demographic data students' characteristics (Maslach Burnout Inventory subscale, Dental Environment Stress Scale [DES] Brief Resilience [BRS]). Descriptive, bivariate multivariable logistic regression analyses performed.Of 272 respondents, 53% reported high EE. Adjusted modelling demonstrated that higher BRS scores significantly less likely report (adjusted odds ratio [AOR]=0.79, 95% CI=0.70-0.89, p<0.001). However, females more than twice as males (AOR=2.27, CI=1.14-4.61, p=0.024). In addition, DES also (AOR=1.10, CI=1.07-1.12, p<0.001).The findings suggest resilience is factor against EE, after adjusting key characteristics.

Analyses done with maximum parsimony, maximum-likelihood, Bayesian inference included 67 specimens from 27 geographically distinct localities in Iran. Our molecular results proposed three clear isolated clades by their phylogenetic positions genetic differences. These major are: (1) A. micropholis+ grandis+ khamirensis; (2) blanfordi+ schmidti+ sp1; (3) nilsoni+ boskianus + sp2. The analyses the genus did not group grandis remaining clustered it along khamirensis within micropholis group. In addition, revealed a monophyletic status for schmidti groups.

<strong>Predicting Global Ship Demolition Using Machine Learning Approach</strong> | Rahman Sm (https://openalex.org/A5031326594) | 2,021 | Abstract:Global ship demolition is mostly concentrated in south Asian countries, namely Bangladesh, India, Pakistan and China, since 1990&rsquo;s, having competitive advantage for their high natural tide, low environmental social costs. Due to externalities, stakeholders increase monitoring of the externalities continue prescribe improvement towards sustainability, which put pressures on profitability competitiveness. As a consequence, also seen past, leakage effect may emerge, leading shift this activity region, with relatively less monitored stricter impacts. Unfortunately, never predicted shipbreaking order understand level push compatible given socio-economic contexts. In study, we have attempted predict future landscape, applying machine learning technique 34,531 in-service vessels worldwide, larger than 500 gross tonnage (GT), run against model based 3500 demolished from 2014. This study shows that redistribution occur among top recycling nations: India emerge out be dominant player shipbreaking, surpassing Bangladesh by margin two-fold, while China are decreasing trend. addition, observed, Vietnam fourth largest country, recede third place 6th 8th.
