Published: August 2024

ABSTRACT Objectives: To study the epidemiological, diagnostic, therapeutic and prognostic aspects of endometrial cancer at the Joliot Curie Institute in Dakar. Results: There were 30 cases of endometrial cancer over a period of 5 years. The average age was 63 years old with extremes of 30 and 71 years old. The average age of first menses was 15 years and the age of menopause was 51.91 years. Hypertension was the main risk factor and metrorrhagia the main circumstance of discoveries. Pelvic magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) was performed in 12 patients, or 40.0% of cases. Histology was obtained before surgery in 10 patients (33%) and in 77% on the surgical specimen. Endometrioid adenocarcinoma was the most common type of histology and was found in 25 patients, or 84% of cases. The patients were classified as stages I and II of FIGO in 43% of cases, stage III in 24% of cases and stage IV in 33% of cases. Colpo hysterectomy with pelvic lymphadenectomy (CHL) was the main surgical procedure performed External radiotherapy was performed in 3 patients or 10%. A case of radiation cystitis and radiodermatitis were recorded as a radiotherapy complication. No patient received brachytherapy. Chemotherapy was performed in 17 patients, ie 56.6%. She was adjuvant in 10 patients, or 34% of cases. Pelvic recurrences were noted in three patients who underwent 10% surgery. After 13 months of follow-up, survival was 50%. Conclusion: Endometrial cancer is diagnosed late in our conditions. He is responsible for a heavy mortality. Surgery is not optimized because of difficult access to radiotherapy and chemotherapy.

Published: August 2024

ABSTRACT Introduction: Giant cell tumors (GCTs) of the bone are osteolytic lesions, which are usually localized in the epiphysis. They are frequent, recurrent and benign. The treatment is almost exclusively surgical. Case report: A 22-year-old woman, with no reported history, received a consultation for cervical spine pain. The radiological assessment carried out showed osteolytic lesions with compression of the body of C2. The indication for a surgical biopsy was asked and performed. An Indian neck brace-type cast was performed after the surgery. The postoperative follow-up was straightforward. She was seen again two months after surgery with a disappearance of pain and complete mobility without apprehension in the different segments of the upper limbs. The follow-up CT scan revealed complete ossification of the C2 body with filling of the bone defect. Conclusion: Due to the cervical architecture and the very close neighborly relationship with the vessels and nerves, its therapeutic management by a large “enbloc” excision bring often a problem and represents a danger for the future of the patient.

Authors: Sabzevari Sara Sadat
Published: August 2024

Objective: The aim of the present study was to design a model of self-care culture for the elderly, which was conducted using a mixed approach. Methods: This research is developmental in terms of its objective and is descriptive-correlational based on its methodology, utilizing Excel software for analysis. The statistical population in the qualitative section consisted of 28 academic experts in the fields of medicine, nursing, and sociology. These experts were selected based on criteria such as experience, relevance of academic discipline, educational degree, university teaching, and research and publication background in this area, using purposive and snowball sampling methods. Findings: The output of this stage included 47 categories in the form of 6 components (self-care knowledge, self-care self-efficacy, self-care skills, spiritual self-care discipline, self-care self-centeredness, and social self-care norms). Self-care knowledge is the foundation for developing a self-care culture among the elderly. Spiritual self-care discipline and self-care self-centeredness fall into the dependent cluster, meaning they are primarily the result of the elderly self-care culture model and changes in other components of the model lead to changes in these components. Additionally, self-care self-efficacy is in the interdependent cluster, indicating that this component is dynamic and any change in it can affect the model. Self-care knowledge also lies in the independent cluster and influences other components. Conclusion: The self-care culture model provides the groundwork for creating conditions and infrastructures that lead to the empowerment of individuals and society for self-care.

Published: August 2024

Objective: This study aimed to determine the effectiveness of mentalization-based training and positive thinking for parents of children with autism on their reflective functioning and their children's aggression. Methods: This quasi-experimental study employed a pretest-posttest design with a control group and a three-month follow-up. The statistical population included all parents of children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) enrolled in day centers for education and rehabilitation of individuals with ASD in Tehran during the 2022-2023 academic year, and their children. A total of 32 parent-child pairs were selected using purposive sampling and were randomly assigned to either the experimental group (16 parents) or the control group (16 parents). Data collection tools for parents included the Reflective Functioning Questionnaire (Fonagy, 2016), and for children, the Achenbach Child Behavior Checklist Aggression Scale (2001) Parent Form. Initially, a pretest was administered to both groups, and the Aggression Scale was completed by the parents for their children. The mentalization-based and positive thinking training package (Fonagy) was then conducted in 12 sessions of 120 minutes each for the experimental group. Subsequently, a posttest was administered to both groups, and the Reflective Functioning Questionnaire and Positive Beliefs Questionnaire were completed by the mothers, while the Aggression Scale was again completed by the parents for their children. A follow-up phase occurred three months later. Data analysis was conducted using repeated measures analysis of variance. Findings: The results indicated that the impact of mentalization-based and positive thinking training on the components of reflective functioning (F = 14.35) and aggression (F = 7.17) in children was significant (P < 0.01), and this effect persisted through the follow-up phase. Conclusion: Given the results, it appears that mentalization-based and positive thinking training, by enhancing reflection on mental states, emotional regulation, and the ability to enjoy pleasant events, provides a suitable context for reflective functioning. This, in turn, leads to a reduction in aggression in children with autism.

Published: August 2024

Objective: The aim of the present study was to investigate the effectiveness of intensive short-term dynamic psychotherapy on pain perception and pain catastrophizing in women with breast cancer. Methods: In this quasi-experimental study, 30 women with breast cancer who referred to Imam Khomeini Hospital in Sari in 2024 were studied using convenience sampling. They were then randomly assigned to two groups: the short-term intensive psychodynamic intervention group (15 participants) and the control group (15 participants) without any intervention. The short-term intensive psychodynamic intervention was implemented according to the protocol by Teska et al. (2005) over 16 weekly sessions, each lasting one and a half hours. The samples were assessed at two stages, pre-test and post-test, using the Pain Perception Questionnaire by Schaal et al. (2010) and the Pain Catastrophizing Scale by Rahmati et al. (2017). Data were analyzed using repeated measures multivariate analysis of variance in SPSS24 software. Findings: In the intervention group, the mean scores for pain catastrophizing were (17.20±36.60) and for pain perception were (36.33±80.80) in the pre-test and post-test stages, respectively. Post-test scores significantly decreased compared to pre-test scores in the components of pain catastrophizing and pain perception in the experimental group compared to the control group. Additionally, the results showed that intensive short-term dynamic psychotherapy had a statistically significant effect on pain catastrophizing (P<0.05, F=24.41) and pain perception (P<0.05, F=56.201) after adjusting the means of the two groups based on the pre-test score. Conclusion: The results indicate the effectiveness of intensive short-term dynamic psychotherapy on pain catastrophizing and pain perception in women with breast cancer. Therefore, this therapy can be used alongside other medical treatment methods in hospitals and clinics dedicated to breast cancer patients to reduce the psychological needs and problems of women with this condition.

Objective: This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of self-compassion training on reducing loneliness and improving health-related quality of life in infertile women. Methods: A randomized controlled trial design was used, involving 30 infertile women recruited from a specialized infertility treatment center. Participants were randomly assigned to an experimental group (n = 15) receiving eight sessions of self-compassion training or a control group (n = 15) with no intervention. Assessments were conducted at baseline, post-intervention, and at a five-month follow-up using the Loneliness Questionnaire and the Health-Related Quality of Life Questionnaire. Data were analyzed using repeated measures ANOVA and Bonferroni post-hoc tests. Findings: The experimental group showed significant reductions in loneliness from pre-test (M = 45.32, SD = 6.45) to post-test (M = 30.21, SD = 5.28) and follow-up (M = 31.12, SD = 5.34), while the control group remained stable. Health-related quality of life significantly improved in the experimental group from pre-test (M = 62.45, SD = 7.34) to post-test (M = 78.53, SD = 6.78) and follow-up (M = 77.95, SD = 6.65), with minimal changes in the control group. ANOVA results indicated significant time and group interactions for both loneliness (F(2, 56) = 67.03, p < .001, η² = .71) and health-related quality of life (F(2, 56) = 113.20, p < .001, η² = .80). Conclusion: Self-compassion training is effective in reducing loneliness and improving health-related quality of life in infertile women. These benefits were sustained at the five-month follow-up, highlighting the long-term potential of self-compassion interventions in supporting the psychological well-being of infertile women.
A Qualitative Study of Sexual Separation in Married Women
Authors: Torki Maasumeh , Etemadi Ozra
Published: August 2024

Objective: Proper sexual functioning is among the factors affecting marital satisfaction. A satisfactory sexual relationship plays a crucial role in individuals' sexual satisfaction, increased life satisfaction, and, consequently, family stability. The aim of this study was to explore the lived experiences of women dealing with sexual separation. Methods: To this end, a qualitative research approach was employed using a descriptive phenomenological method. Data were collected through semi-structured interviews with thirteen married women who reported having experienced sexual separation for more than a year and were living with their husbands at the time of the interview. Data analysis was conducted using Colaizzi's method. Findings: Ultimately, two main themes emerged: the nature of sexual separation and the reasons for sexual separation. The nature of sexual separation was divided into two sub-themes: lackluster relationship and wrong path. The reasons for sexual separation were coded into six sub-themes: personal injuries, emotional divorce, emotional wounds, beyond tolerance, unilateral pleasures, and backgrounds. Conclusion: According to the research findings, it can be inferred that sexual separation has different culturally dependent meanings. However, what stands out more prominently in the categories derived from this study is the reduction in frequency and duration of sexual relations and the lack of sexual desire and enthusiasm towards the spouse. Additionally, the factors causing sexual separation are an intertwined set of various reasons, with the most influential being emotional wounds and emotional divorce. The findings of this study indicate that some cases of sexual separation lead to sexual divorce.

Published: August 2024

Objective: This study aimed to compare the effectiveness of Paradox Timetable Cure (PTC), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy Matrix (ACTM), and Emotion-Focused Therapy (EFT) on differentiation and emotional self-regulation in women experiencing marital conflicts. Methods: The research employed a quasi-experimental design with pre-test, post-test, and follow-up stages. The study sample consisted of 60 women with marital conflicts, selected through purposive sampling from an initial group of 154. The participants were randomly assigned to four groups: PTC, MACT, EFT, and a control group, each containing 15 members. The intervention included ten 90-minute sessions for each therapy group, while the control group received no treatment. Data were collected using the Differentiation of Self Inventory and the Emotion Regulation Questionnaire. Repeated measures ANOVA and Bonferroni post hoc tests were used for data analysis. Findings: The results indicated significant improvements in differentiation and emotional self-regulation across all three therapeutic approaches compared to the control group. ACTM and EFT were found to be slightly more effective than PTC in enhancing differentiation and emotional self-regulation (MACT and EFT p = .000, PTC p = .004 in differentiation; ACTM and EFT p = .000, PTC p = .001 in emotional self-regulation). Conclusion: All three therapeutic approaches—PTC, MACT, and EFT—were effective in improving differentiation and emotional self-regulation in women with marital conflicts. However, ACTM and EFT demonstrated marginally higher effectiveness compared to PTC. These findings suggest the utility of these therapies in clinical settings for addressing marital conflicts.

Published: August 2024

Objective: To evaluate the effectiveness of cognitive therapy on pain self-efficacy, meta-emotions, and catastrophizing in women with breast cancer. Methods and Materials: A randomized controlled trial was conducted with 30 women diagnosed with breast cancer experiencing chronic pain. Participants were randomly assigned to an intervention group (n = 15) or a control group (n = 15). The intervention group received a ten-week cognitive therapy program, while the control group received standard care. Data were collected at baseline, post-intervention, and five months follow-up using the Pain Self-Efficacy Questionnaire (PSEQ), Meta-Emotion Scale (MES), and Pain Catastrophizing Scale (PCS). Statistical analyses included ANOVA with repeated measures and Bonferroni post-hoc tests. Findings: Descriptive statistics showed significant improvements in the intervention group compared to the control group. The intervention group had a mean pain self-efficacy score of 45.67 (SD = 6.23) versus 30.45 (SD = 5.89) in the control group. Meta-emotions scores were 52.89 (SD = 7.34) in the intervention group and 38.76 (SD = 6.45) in the control group. Catastrophizing scores were 20.23 (SD = 4.56) for the intervention group and 35.67 (SD = 5.78) for the control group. ANOVA results revealed significant differences for pain self-efficacy (F(1, 28) = 47.19, p < .001), meta-emotions (F(1, 28) = 36.65, p < .001), and catastrophizing (F(1, 28) = 67.98, p < .001). Bonferroni post-hoc tests confirmed these differences with p-values < .001 for all comparisons. Conclusion: Cognitive therapy significantly enhances pain self-efficacy, improves meta-emotional regulation, and reduces catastrophizing in women with breast cancer. These findings support the integration of cognitive-behavioral and meta-emotional interventions into chronic pain management practices to improve psychological well-being and quality of life for breast cancer survivors.

Authors: Stojanovski Todor
Published: August 2024

City Information Modelling (CIM) seeks to evolve Building Information Modelling (BIM) into urban planning and design practices that are today dominated by Geographic Information Systems (GIS). The design toolbox in GIS software does not relate to urban design elements (streets, sidewalks, buildings, lots, etc.) or urbanist parameters. Urban designers must use geometric design elements from GIS (lines, polygons, and points) that do not correspond to their practices and threedimensional (3D) understanding of cities. This paper explores the CIM framework thought evolution of the architects’ and the planners’ office, the history, and new trends in digitalisation of urban planning and design from a perspective of urban designer and morphological structure of cities.

The Impact of Government R&D Subsidies on the Transformation of Innovation Achievements in Enterprises
Authors: Yu Zitian
Published: August 2024

Based on the differences in the amount and effect of government R&D subsidies (g-R&D-s) in different regions, this study measures the transformation of innovative achievements by measuring the sales revenue of new products. Using high-tech industries in 30 provinces (regions, cities) in China from 2009 to 2021 as research samples, this study explores the impact and mechanism of g-R&D-s on the transformation of innovative achievements by enterprises, and incorporates the degree of market as a threshold into the research framework. Empirical research has found a significant U-shaped relationship between g-R&D-s and the transformation of innovative achievements in high-tech industries in China. When g-R&D-s are low, they have an inhibitory effect on the transformation of innovative achievements in enterprises. However, when the level of market exceeds the threshold of 3.7390, the inhibitory effect of g-R&D-s on the transformation of innovative achievements in high-tech industries is weakened and turns into a positive impact. It is recommended that the government increase R&D subsidies for enterprises, scientifically refine fund management, and improve the level of market in various regions to help enterprises overcome the dilemma of insufficient market.
