“…No similar study to the present study was found in terms of the application of apple vinegar for the treatment and prevention of striae gravidarum. However, use of apple vinegar for treatment of vaginal and skin fungal infections has produced useful results [30,31]. Given the positive effect of apple vinegar in reducing the size of striae, further studies on the effects of apple vinegar in preventing the incidence of striae gravidarum are recommended.…”

Objective: Striae happen to 50–90% of pregnant women and never disappears completely. It is, therefore, a major aesthetic concern for most women, which can cause psychological distress and disturbed body image. This study was conducted to examine the effectiveness of the topical use of apple vinegar on striae gravidarum.Methods: This randomized controlled clinical trial study was conducted on 23 women referred to health centers in Gonabad city, selected according to inclusion criteria and systematic random method. The right half of the abdomen in each participant was considered as a trial group and the left half as the control. On the trial side, apple vinegar was massaged onto striae twice daily for 1 month. Data were collected using a demographic questionnaire, checklist of striae aesthetic change, a pair of calipers and a camera and analyzed in SPSS-20 using descriptive statistics, paired t, and Wilcoxon tests at significance level p<0.05.Results: No significant change was observed in mean length and width of striae in either trial or control sides after the intervention (p>0.05). However, on the trial side, the difference between striae length and width before and after the intervention was statistically significant (p<0.001). A significant difference was observed during intervention in the reduction in striae length and width on trial side (p<0.001).Conclusion: Topical application of apple vinegar effectively reduces the size of striae. Further and longer studies with larger sample size are recommended.

“…The risk of reflux, vomiting, and pulmonary aspiration, however, remains to be further studied in the prone position [5]. In a case study by Berg et al, removing pressure from the stomach by inserting a nasogastric tube dramatically increased the flowing volume and improved ventilation [14,31], which must have been due to the insertion of the tube after distension, causing gases, and liquids to be emptied and leading to a subsequent reduction in distension and an increased respiratory flow volume. In the present study; however, the gastric tube was in place before the intervention for the purpose of feeding and the patients were not experiencing distension at the beginning.…”

“…Swallowing air is higher in patients under positive pressure ventilation and therefore causes distension and esophageal reflux [13,14]. In addition, certain conditions in patients, especially ICU patients, increase the amount of air swallowed, such as swallowing the excess salivary and postnasal discharge, attempting to increase lip and tongue movement to produce more saliva and overcome the dry mouth caused by an open mouth, tracheal intubation or the anticholinergic side effects of some medications.…”

Objective: Increased gastric residual volume is a complication of enteral nutrition intolerance that leads to gastrointestinal complications such as nausea, vomiting, and aspiration pneumonia. The present study was conducted to determine the effect of gastric gas emptying on the residual gastric volume in mechanically-ventilated patients fed through nasogastric tubes.Methods: This randomized, single-blind, clinical trial was conducted on two groups of patients in the intensive care unit (ICU) of Kamyab Hospital of Mashhad. A total of 64 patients were randomly divided into a case and a control group. In the case group, the gastric gases accumulated through the nasogastric tube were emptied by applying palm pressure on the epigastric region. The control group did not undergo this intervention but received the routine care provided in the ward. Data were collected using a demographic questionnaire and a form containing records of the patients’ residual gastric volume and disease-related information. The residual gastric volume was measured and compared in the two groups before and after the intervention. Data were analyzed in SPSS-19 using the Chi-square test, the independent t-test, and the repeated measures ANOVA at the significance level of 5%.Results: The residual gastric volume did not differ significantly between the two groups before the intervention (p=0.14); after the intervention; however, a significant reduction was observed in the case group compared to the controls (p=0.007).Conclusion: Gastric gas emptying helps reduce the residual gastric volume in mechanically-ventilated patients fed through nasogastric tubes. Further studies are recommended to further ensure the benefits of this method.

“…According to the Roy adaptation model, self-concept is consisted of the physical self-concept, personal selfconcept, and interpersonal self-concept in relationships with others. Psychologist has extensively examined his self-concept as one of the human existential dimensions to find mental coordination and cohesion (19).…”

“…Many studies have indicated the positive effect of employing this pattern on disease course improvement and adaptation promotion in chronic diseases such as heart failure, diabetes, and kidney failure (20,21). In the other research, the positive effect of nursing interventions based on the Roy adaptation model on the self-concept of pregnant women was studied (19). However, the use of supportive-instructional measures in self-concept context related to the promotion of mental health of teenage girls seems necessary.…”

Background: Self-concept is among the most important factors influencing health, particularly during adolescent years. Mental health in adolescents, social adaptation, and healthy behaviors require coordination and adaptation with physical and mental changes resulting from this period. Objectives: The purpose of the present study was to determine the effect of the Roy adaptation model-based intervention on the self-concept of teenage girls. Methods: This quasi-experimental study was conducted in 2016 on 64 teenage girls with the available random sampling method; subjects were randomly assigned into control and intervention groups. For the intervention group, 12 weeks of intervention were performed as instruction and follow-up. Data were collected before and after intervention using personal information form and a researcher-made questionnaire, including 50 questions of self-concept in teenage girls based on the Roy adaptation model. The validity was examined by content validity, and the reliability was examined by internal consistency with the Cronbach's alpha of 0.74. Finally, data were analyzed using SPSS 16, descriptive statistics (mean, standard deviation, frequency), and analytical tests (independent t-test, chi-square). The significance level was below 0.05. Results: The average age of participants was 14.2 ± 1.21. Average self-concept before intervention in the control group was 171.31 ± 11.95 and in the intervention group was 165.03 ± 17.82 where no significant difference existed (P = 0.10). Average self-concept after intervention on control group was 176.62 ± 12.18 and in the intervention group was 197.06 ± 10.09, where a significant difference existed (P < 0.001). The results of the independent t-test in research groups after intervention showed that the employment of the Roy adaptation model promoted the average self-concept in teenage girls (P < 0.001). Conclusions: Employment of the designed program, based on the Roy adaptation model, can promote the self-concept of girls regarding transformations during their adolescent years.
