Background: Moral distress is a common phenomenon in the nursing profession. Objectives: This study was aimed to determine the mean intensity and frequency of moral distress among Iranian Nurses. Methods: This systematic review and meta-analysis was based on PRISMA guideline and searching in National databases as SID, Magiran, Irandoc, Noormag, IranMedex, and Medlib as well as International databases as Madlib and Web of Sciences, Scopus, PubMed, Direct-Science, Cochrane, Embase, Springer, Online Library Wiley, Ebsco, CEBM, CINHAL, SAGE, and Google Scholar were published by 2016. Researched keywords were in Persian and their English equivalents in accordance with their Mesh: "Moral", "Morale", "Distress", "Iran", "Frequency", "intensity", "Ethics", "Nurse", and all possible combinations. The obtained documents were analyzed based on appropriate checklist through a random effects model by using Review Manager Software ver: 5.3.5.

“…Therefore, the findings of our study may not be generalizable to the other regions and the whole population of Tehran.Our finding of an 8.8% C. trachomatis infection rate in the present study is consistent with results from studies conducted within the past two decades across Iran. In a meta-analysis on reports of C. trachomatis infection rate among pregnant Iranian women, the overall prevalence of C. trachomatis infection has been reported to be 8.74% (95%CI: 5.40 -13.84) (16). However, the prevalence estimate of C. trachomatis infection that we report in this study is moderate in comparison to those reported previously in this region (2.2% and 3.3% by Khezerdoust et al,11.1% by Rashidi et al, and 11.2% by Chamani et al) (17)(18)(19).…”

Background: Pregnant women with Chlamydia trachomatis and Neisseria gonorrhoeae infections can vertically transmit these microorganisms to their newborns through the birth canal and cause neonatal conjunctivitis secondary to sexually transmitted infections. Objectives: In this cross-sectional study, we aimed to evaluate the prevalence of C. trachomatis and N. gonorrhoeae infections among pregnant women attending a hospital in Tehran, and also determine the vertical transmission rate of these two organisms to the eyes of newborns after vaginal delivery. Methods: Endocervical and conjunctival swabs were collected from pregnant women and their newborns within 24 hours after birth. Demographic and clinical data of participants were obtained using a questionnaire and from the hospital records. Then, DNA was extracted and tested by a multiplex PCR assay to detect C. trachomatis and N. gonorrhoeae in specimens. Results: Genital infections of C. trachomatis and N. gonorrhoeae were detected in 9.6% (11 of 125) and 1.6% (2 of 125) of pregnant women, respectively. Among newborns, ocular infection with C. trachomatis was detected in 2 (1.6%), and no case of N. gonorrhoeae infection was found. Both infected infants were born from asymptomatic infected women. Therefore, the vertical transmission rate of C. trachomatis infection was calculated as 18.1%. Our results also revealed that ocular C. trachomatis infection in neonates is significantly in association with genital C. trachomatis infection in pregnant women (OR = 0.16, 95% CI = 0.03 -0.7, P = 0.002). Conclusions: Pregnant women with asymptomatic infection of C. trachomatis have a key role in the distribution of chlamydial conjunctivitis in newborns. Since ocular prophylaxis in neonates is not effective for chlamydial conjunctivitis, therefore education and screening of pregnant women, as well as treatment of infected cases, remain as the best approach for controlling the disease.

“…In other studies carried out in Iran, some risk factors were recognized for HBV and HCV infection such as the history of imprisonment, unemployment, low educational level, injection of drug use, and unprotected sex (19)(20)(21). In a review of another study that evaluated the risk factors for HBV infection among pregnant women, illiteracy, occupation, abortion, history of blood transfusion, and addiction of spouse were known as significant risk factors (22). In another study conducted in general population of BIrjand, the prevalence of anti-HBc seropositivity was significantly higher in subjects with a lower level of education, intravenous (IV) drug users, older subjects, subjects with piercings, and those with a history of familial HBV or HCV infection.…”

Background: Hepatitis B (HBV) and hepatitis C (HCV) are viral infections which attack the liver and can cause both acute and chronic diseases. Objectives: The aim of this study was to investigate the knowledge, risk factors, and prevalence of hepatitis B and C infections among high-risk populations of Guilan province, North of Iran. Methods: The current cross-sectional study was conducted on three high-risk groups, including nurses, municipal workers and barbers as well as the control group from the general population. Results: A total of 3391 subjects were recruited for this study. The results of the ANOVA test showed that knowledge about HBV and HCV and their components are statistically different among the groups (P value < 0.05). The overall prevalence of HBV surface antigen (HBsAg) positivity was zero in nurses, barbers, and municipal workers, and 0.5% in general population (95% CI 0.14% to 0.86%). The overall prevalence of HCV infection was zero in nurses and barbers, 0.5% in municipal workers (95% CI 0.03 % to 0.97 %), and 0.2% in the general population (95% CI 0.02 % to 0.38 %). Conclusions: Regarding the low prevalence of HBV and HCV infection in high-risk groups, it seems that mandatory vaccination has had a significant role in recruiting or obtaining work permits. However, given the low level of knowledge, it was suggested that authorities should pay more attention in general education and specialized courses for high-risk groups.
