    Abstract Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) constitutes a significant public health challenge, with delayed diagnosis and underdiagnosis being pervasive issues. The United States Preventive Service Task Force recommends restricting COPD screening to symptomatic smokers, a focus that has exhibited limitations, leading to delayed diagnoses, and imposing a substantial burden on patients, their families, and the healthcare system. This paper explores an alternative approach, highlighting the potential utility of the COPD assessment test (CAT) score as a prescreening tool. A CAT score of 10 or higher could serve as an appropriate threshold for further diagnostic procedures, given its robust correlation with pulmonary function test parameters and is valuable capacity to quantify patients' symptoms. The utilization of CAT as a prescreening tool in primary care signifies a transition towards a more patient-centered and comprehensive approach to COPD diagnosis and care.

    Abstract Background: Leadership in health system is a universal challenge. The Young Innovative Leadership Program (YILP) designed for undergraduate and postgraduate medical sciences students, implemented at the Isfahan University of Medical Sciences, aimed to cultivate leadership capacities through a 16-week training program. This program comprises ten modules covering innovation, change leadership, and management skills, with mentor-facilitated group discussions. This study aimed to provide a qualitative report of the experiences of participants in the YILP.
    Methods: A qualitative study was conducted in 2022, three months after the end of the training program, to investigate the participants' perspectives. Data was extracted through in-depth, semi-structured interviews with 14 participants.
    Results: In this study 14 undergraduate and postgraduate medical sciences students who had participated in the YILP the previous year were included. Four main categories emerged from the interviews: "emergence of new horizons", "values as beacon", "an expanded toolbox", and "program's structure: a learning atmosphere".
    Conclusions: The results of our study indicated that medical science students would benefit from leadership development programs. In this regard, the framework utilized to implement YILP could serve as a role model.

    Abstract COVID-19 vaccines are supposed to be critical measure for ending the pandemic. Governments had to decide on the type of vaccine to provide for their population. In this decision-making process, cost-effectiveness analysis is considered a helpful tool. This study is a cost-effectiveness analysis utilized to calculate the incremental cost per averted disability-adjusted life year (DALY) by vaccination compared to no vaccination for different COVID-19 vaccines. The incremental cost-effectiveness ratio (ICER) for a vaccination with COVID-19 vaccines was estimated at 6.2 to 121.2 USD to avert one DALY and 566.8 to 10,957.7 USD per one death. The lowest and highest ICERs belong to Ad26.COV2.S and CoronaVac, respectively. Considering the scenario of Iran, vaccines that are recommended include ad26.cov2.s, chadox1-S, rAd26-S + rAd5-S, and BNT162b2 in the order of recommendation.

    Abstract Abstract Background: The Comprehensive Child Development Center was established in 2012 in the center of Isfahan province to rapidly identify and intervene in the developmental problems of children. The aim of this study was to evaluate the implementation of this program. Methods: This was a descriptive-analytical study conducted based on the framework for evaluating public health programs established by the Center for Disease Control and Prevention of United States of America with regard to evaluation of infrastructure, process and outcome. The infrastructure’s checklist included an area of land, equipment, workforce and equipment completed with presence of researcher at the center. Process and outcome evaluation was performed for 127 registered children during 2019. A satisfaction questionnaire was completed in person or remotely by parents of 144 children referred to the center in 2019 and 2020. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics and independent t-test, and one-way ANOVA was carried out through SPSS 16 software. Results: The overall compliance of infrastructure with standards was 75.42%, with the highest compliance related to the equipment and the lowest related to the specialized workforce. The degree of compliance of the process compared with the standard one varied in different dimensions. 6.30 % of the children were cured and 76.38 % quit treatment. The most common reasons for treatment discontinuation were lack of appointment (29.53 %) and long distance (18.12 %). The overall satisfaction score was 83.90 ± 14.08. The satisfaction of the parents who completed the questionnaire in person was higher than those who completed the questionnaire remotely. Conclusion: The results of this study revealed that the rate of complete cure is low and the rate of treatment discontinuation is high, whose main reasons were the lack of appointment to admit children with developmental disorders and long distance. It is suggested that, in order to solve the problem, the Ministry of Health establish more centers ...

    Abstract Background: Since December 2019, countries experienced different numbers of COVID-19 pandemic waves. The COVID-19 pandemic led to adverse psychologic problems in the communities and among healthcare workers (HCWs), but the dynamic of these problems through different waves needs to be established more.
    Materials and methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted in October 2020, through the third wave of the COVID-19 pandemic, in Isfahan, Iran. We studied HCWs' depression, anxiety, and stress using Depression, Anxiety, Stress Scale-21 (DASS-21) and insomnia using Insomnia Severity Index (ISI) questionnaires. Multiple linear regression was used to evaluate the association of some characteristic factors with different psychologic symptoms.
    Results: Our results showed that about 80% of HCWs had one or more psychological problems. The prevalence of depression, anxiety, stress, and insomnia was 46.0%, 50.2%, 44.6%, and 66.5%, respectively. Female sex, working in ICU, and having a history of chronic disease were predictors of psychological symptoms in our participants.
    Conclusion: HCWs' mental health state could be underestimated or neglected. The third pandemic wave negatively affected the mental health of the HCWs. Since mental health problems of HCWs may reduce the quality of care, the potential impact of not addressing this issue should be highlighted.

    Abstract Background: There is debate on the necessity of booster doses of COVID-19 vaccination, especially in countries with limited resources.
    Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted in a referral laboratory in Tehran, Iran. The level of COVID-19 antibodies was measured and compared between individuals regarding the number of COVID-19 vaccine shots.
    Results: In this study, 176 individuals with a mean age of 36.3 (±11.7) years participated. A total of 112 individuals received two doses of the COVID-19 vaccine, and 64 individuals received three doses. Level of all antibodies was higher in those who received three doses than in those who received two doses of the COVID-19 vaccine. Considering the SARS-CoV-2 Spike IgG, the difference was not statistically significant but for the SARS-CoV-2 RBD IgG and SARS-CoV-2 NAB the difference was statistically significant. Regarding to the background variables, receiving influenza vaccine in the past year, history of autoimmune diseases and past medical history of chicken pox showed a significant association with the number of vaccine doses received. Their effects on the outcome variables assessed with multivariate logistic regression analysis.
    Conclusion: The results of our study show that a booster dose of the COVID-19 vaccine enhances the antibody response.
