conclusions this study showed that drivers, passengers and pedestrians were the most vulnerable road users. regarding the fact that most of them were illiterate or had primary education and were self-employed or laborers, it seems essential to develop plans not only to train the road users but also to evaluate the safety of vehicles and roads and post-accident care programs, and consequently, i...

abstract background: clinical risk index of babies (crib), score for neonatal acute physiology (snap), an update of the clinical risk index for babies score (crib ii) and score for neonatal acute physiology - perinatal extension (snap-pe) are scoring devices developed in neonatal intensive care units. this study reviewed these scoring systems in critically ill neonates to determine how well the...

Background & aim: Sepsis is a major cause of neonatal mortality in the developing countries. The prevention and management of this infection require informed workforce and availability of necessary resources and equipment. Regarding this, the present study was conducted to investigate healthcare workers’ neonatal sepsis knowledge; prevention and management strategies in use for the control of t...

pulmonary haemorrhage (pH) in a sick neonate is a life-threatening complication and is often associated with a high mortality. it is now often seen in extreme preterm and very low birth weight infants who are growth restricted and have received surfactant with significant respiratory distress syndrome. the mainstay of treatment includes ventilation and vigorous resuscitation of a shocked and cr...

the experiment was conducted to determine the effects of different photoperiods and darkness on the growth and survival of juvenile catla catla in the laboratory for 90 days. fishes were divided into four aquaria (10 fish per aquarium), and subjected to different photoperiod regimes of 8 hours light: 16 hours dark (8l:16d), 16 hours light: 8 hours dark (16l:8d), continuous light (24l:0d) and co...

Introduction: The neonatal death rate indicates the improvement of community health. Knowing the maternal factors associated with neonatal  death is very effective for proper planning to improve care systems during  pregnancy, labor and birth. Therefore, the researchers decided to study the characters of mothers before and during pregnancy who had died neonate. Methods: This is a retrospective...

background:respiratory distress syndrome is the most common respiratory disease in premature neonate and the most important cause of death among them. we aimed to investigate factors to predict successful or failure of insure method as a therapeutic method of rds.methods:in a cohort study,45 neonates with diagnosed rds and birth weight lower than 1500g were included and they underwent insure fo...

Fine-scale monitoring of neonate mammals can provide important data about survival rates and cause-specific mortality. However, the VHF transmitters collars frequently used to monitor necessitate logistically intensive field efforts, often requiring personnel check on collared animals several times a day. We adapted technology that creates proximity link between GPS fitted adult expandable for ...
