Evaluation of prognostic factors of head and neck squamous cell carcinomas in Iranian patients: A narrative review

Background: Head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) represents the largest proportion of head and neck cancers (HNCs). Despite new treatment modalities, the 5-year survival rate has not improved much. Identifying the factors affecting the prognosis and survival of patients is the first step in trying to improve the prognosis of these patients. The aim of this review was to investigate prognostic factors of HNSCC in Iran. Methods: A web-based search of all original articles conducted in Iran until October 2022 on prognostic factors of HNSCC was done using English and Persian language databases such as Google Scholar, PubMed, IranMedex, etc. The data were categorized according to clinical, histopathological and treatment parameters. Results: A total of 7 articles related to the aim of this study were found. Age and regular periodic follow-ups were common prognostic factors in three studies. The results about factors such as the tumor staging and treatment method were contradictory among different studies. It seems that some factors such as gender, microscopic grading, and patient and professional delay in cancer management have no effect on the prognosis of this group of patients. Conclusions on some factors, such as P53 and EGFR expression and body mass index, also seem to require further investigation. Conclusion: Age and regular periodic follow-ups are among the common prognostic factors that have been mentioned in different studies. In order to improve the survival of HNSCC patients, diagnosis at lower ages and early stages of the tumor along with periodic evaluations after cancer treatment, seems necessary.

Changes in speech prosody perception during Parkinson's disease: A comprehensive analysis

IntroductionParkinson's disease (PD) is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder that affects approximately 1%–2% of individuals aged 60 and above. Communication disorders in PD can significantly impact the overall quality of life. As prosody plays a vital role in verbal communication, the present study examines Persian prosody perception in PD, focusing on linguistic and emotional aspects of prosody. MethodsThis cross-sectional study aimed to compare the perception of linguistic and emotional prosody in three groups: middle-aged adults (n = 22; mean age = 50.40 years), healthy older adults (n = 22; mean age = 68.31 years), and individuals with Parkinson's disease (n = 22; mean age = 65years). All individuals with PD were classified in stages 1; 1.5; 2; 2.5, and 3 of the disease using the Hoehn and Yahr scale. All participants had an MMSE score of 24 or above. The Florida Affect Battery (FAB) was used to evaluate prosody perception. This Battery was validated in the Persian language and its reliability and validity were reported as 94 % and 100 % respectively. ResultsParticipants with PD presented significantly lower scores than the older adults in all subtests of the FAB (p < 0.05), while healthy older adults were significantly different only in linguistic discrimination (β = -2.14; -3.68 to -0.61), and linguistic naming of prosody (β = 1.25; 0.17 to 2.33) compared to middle-aged adults. ConclusionsThe present study sheds light on the influence of PD on Persian prosody perception. Given the crucial role of prosody in verbal communication, these findings enhance our understanding of communication disorders in PD and could bring attention to consider prosody perception, among other aspects, when assessing individuals affected by PD.

Understanding Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease in Iran: a systematic review of case reports.

To systematically review the reported cases of Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (CJD) in Iran. A comprehensive literature review of CJD cases in Iran was undertaken using the PubMed®, Scopus® and Google Scholar databases. In addition, the Iranian database MagIran was searched for Persian language reports. Case selection used the following criteria: (i) patients of Iranian origin; (ii) publication in peer-reviewed journals or reputable medical databases; (iii) a definitive diagnosis of CJD based on established diagnostic criteria. Thirteen cases from twelve reports were included in this systematic review. The majority of the cases were female (11 of 13; 84.6%). The mean ± SD age of patients at hospital admission was 59.38 ± 7.44 years. The findings of the case review suggested that the prevalence of CJD in Iran is not fully established. CJD may be misdiagnosed alongside other clinical signs. The most prevalent early indications of the disease were psychiatric and neurological in nature. A considerable delay in diagnosis was observed in some cases and there was a shortage of brain autopsy records. Efforts to improve diagnostic capabilities, promote awareness and establish monitoring systems are necessary for managing the challenges of providing an early diagnosis of CJD in Iran.

Development and psychometric properties of appraisals of post traumatic spinal cord injury health scale in Iran.

Development and psychometrics study OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the reliability and validity of a new version of Appraisals of Post-Traumatic Spinal Cord Injury Health Scale (APTSCIHS) in the Persian language for persons with spinal cord injury (SCI). The persons were selected from National Spinal Cord Injury Registry of Iran (NSCIR-IR) and Brain and Spinal Cord Injury Research center (BASIR). This was a mixed sequential exploratory study that performed in two phases. In the qualitative phase, a systematic scoping review and 12 interviews with the participants were done. Finally, items were generated. In the quantitative phase, face, content, construct and convergent validity were assessed to evaluate validity. To evaluate construct validity, a cross-sectional study was conducted on 305 persons with TSCI along with internal consistency and stability assessments. All quantitative data analyses were conducted using SPSS 22 software. The content validity and reliability were indicated by Scale's Content Validity Ratio (S-CVR) = 0.73 and Scale's Content Validity Index (S-CVI) = 0.86, Cronbach's α = 0.9 and the Test re-test reliability using intra-class correlations were (ICC) = 0.97 to 0.98. Exploratory factor analysis determined eight factors which showed more than 52% of the variance. APTSCIHS had a significant and strong correlation with Appraisals of DisAbility Primary and Secondary Scale (ADAPSS) (r = 0.475, P < 0.001). Results showed the 36 items APTSCIHS tool had an acceptable validity and reliability in Iran, and it can help health care providers or even administrators improve the quality of the rehabilitation services and quality of life.

Translation and cross-cultural adaptation of Persian version of Evidence Based Medicine Questionnaire (EBMQ) in postgraduate medical students in Iran.

Evidence Based Medicine Questionnaire (EBMQ) was developed to assess the knowledge, practice and barriers towards the implementation of Evidence-Based Medicine (EBM). This study aimed to translate, cross-culturally adapt and psychometrically validate the Persian version of EBMQ. This was an analytical cross sectional study. The EBMQ underwent translation and cross-cultural adaptation following best practices. Face validity was assessed by a panel of five experts. The content validity index (CVI) and content validity ratio (CVR) were evaluated by 15 experts who were familiar with EBM. The tool's internal consistency and test-retest reliability over a 2-week period were evaluated using Cronbach's α and intra-class correlation (ICC), respectively. To assess construct validity, the questionnaire was completed by 400 medical students. Exploratory factor analysis (EFA) and confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) were used for construct validity assessment. All analyses were carried out using IBM SPSS v.24 and AMOS v.24. A significance level of 5% was considered. The CVR for 40 items was higher than 0.62, and their CVI score was 1.0, indicating good content validity. The scale demonstrated acceptable internal consistency and test-retest reliability (n = 30) with an ICC of 0.909 (95% CI: 0.866 to 0.941), and an overall alpha coefficient of 0.957. The structural validity was established through exploratory factor analysis (Bartlett's test p<0.001; the Kaiser-Meyer-Olkin index = 0.862), and it was further confirmed by confirmatory factor analysis. A three-factor solution with 40 items, explaining 51.610% of the variance, exhibited the best fit indices Chi-square statistics/df = 4.23; RMSEA = 0.08; CFI = 0.95; NFI = 0.93; TLI = 0.92). The Persian version of the EBMQ was a reliable and valid tool that could be utilized to assess the knowledge, practice and barriers of EBM for physicians in Persian language countries.

Researching Ibn Muhanna’s dictionary in terms of linguistic features

In many linguistic studies, many studies have been conducted on the work “Hilyetü’l-insan” and “Halbetü’l-lisan”, which was mentioned as Ibn Muhanna’s Dictionary, whose real name was revealed when the Istanbul copy was found, and which belongs to Jamaladdin Ibn Muhanna. In the middle of the century, the Persian, Turkic and Mongolian languages gained influence and were widely used in Iraq as well as in the entire Elkhanid territory. Ibn Muhenna wrote his dictionaries “Hilyetü’l-insan” and “Halbetü’l-lisan” in this scientific environment. It is estimated that it was written in Meraga or Baghdad in the second half of the century. Despite the fact that the official language of the Elkhanid state is Turkic, Ibn Muhanna wrote his work in Arabic based on the main features of these three languages, considering that Arabic, Persian and Mongolian languages are also used in cultural, administrative, commercial and public life. According to the Istanbul copy of the introduction and the three-part dictionary, pages 5–111 were devoted to Persian, pages 113–310 to Turkic, and pages 311–371 to Mongolian. The part of the work related to the Persian language consists of an introduction and twenty-eight chapters where general grammatical rules are explained. In this research study, we will try to compare the linguistic features of Ibn Muhanna’s Dictionary.

Expression of a person’s emotional state using phraseological units with a color component in Russian and Persian languages

This article is devoted to a comparative analysis of phraseological units with a color component in Russian and Persian linguistic cultures, expressing the emotional state of a person. Color is an integral part of the perception of the reality around us; with its help, we can consciously or unconsciously convey our mood, inner state, and attitude towards everything around us. Phraseologisms, being a stable combination, give speech an emotional coloring and figuratively characterize a particular state. The object of the study is phraseological units of the Russian and Persian languages containing a colorative component, selected by a continuous sampling method from explanatory, phraseological, etymological and encyclopedic dictionaries and other literary sources of the Russian and Persian languages. The main research method used in this work is the comparative method and axiological analysis of phraseological units containing a color component in the Russian and Persian languages. Let us note that work on the comparative analysis of various lexical units is currently being carried out quite actively, but research in the field of comparing phraseological units with the color component of the Russian and Persian languages is not numerous. The scientific novelty of the work lies in the study and understanding of information about the emotional state of a person, which is conveyed by phraseological units of the Russian and Persian languages, containing a color component. Based on the results of the study, the symbolism and associative perception characteristic of representatives of Russian and Persian culture were determined, and the colors included in the phraseological units characterizing the emotional state of a person were identified, and the subjective evaluative attitude of a person to existing or possible situations and the objective world was indicated, transmitted by them.

An Analytical Evaluation of the Signification of ‘The Development of Metaphysics in Persia’ in the Advancement of Allama Muhammad Iqbal’s Theo-Philosophic Ideas

Allama Muhammad Iqbal (1877-1038) is a versatile thinker of the modern Muslim world. Although he was born in Sub-Continent but his thought crossed all the barriers of color, creed, race and land. Syed Jamal Din Afghani (1838-1898) was the 1st person who set the foundation of the renaissance of the modern Muslim world. Iqbal preceded and accelerated Syed Jamal al Din Afghani’s movement of reformation with his sagacious approach in a new way with new dimensions. He used both the mediums ‘prose’ and ‘poetry’ to present his thought. His poetic work is in Persian and Urdu languages while his prose work is in English, Urdu and Persian. He was a theologian, philosopher, mystic poet and politician. His 1st research work is his doctoral dissertation under the title ‘The Development of Metaphysics in Persia’. This research work is the 1st outcome of his intellectual endeavors during his stay in Europe from 1905 to 1908 in England and Germany. A common viewpoint of Iqbal scholars about this research work of is that ‘it is outdated and has no value in Iqbal’s thought and literature now’. The last and final philosophical work of Allama Iqbal is under the title ‘The Reconstruction of Religious Thought in Islam’. From 1st to final philosophical work there are many others his valuable books in poetry and prose. In this article our aim is to analyze the said views about his doctoral thesis and to find out the significance of his 1st philosophical work in the development of his thought.

Health Literacy and Care Behaviors Among Iranian Pregnant Women: A Systematic Review

Background: Prenatal care and care behaviors can affect pregnancy outcomes. In this regard, it is crucial to identify the variables that can influence the care behaviors of pregnant women. The literature review reveals that extensive research has been conducted on the association between health literacy and care behaviors among pregnant women in Iran. However, these studies have not yet been evaluated and summarized comprehensively. Consequently, the present study aimed to investigate the impact of health literacy on care behaviors in pregnant women in Iran. Methods: This systematic review encompassed a comprehensive search of various English-language databases, including Pub Med, Scopus, Web of Science, Google Scholar, and ProQuest. The search was conducted using MESH keywords related to health literacy, along with other relevant keywords. Furthermore, Persian language databases, namely SID, Magiran, and Irandoc, were searched using the appropriate keywords. The collected data were subjected to qualitative analysis. Results: Finally, 19 articles were included. The findings showed that pregnant women with higher levels of health literacy exhibited improved adherence to various care behaviors. These behaviors included following a nutritious diet, using recommended supplements, practicing preventive measures for urinary infections, initiating prenatal care promptly, and maintaining good oral and dental hygiene. Conclusion: Health literacy is a significant factor influencing care behaviors during pregnancy. Therefore, it is recommended to incorporate health literacy as a crucial consideration when designing interventions aimed at enhancing care behaviors among pregnant women.

About the Russian and Persian verbs of speech impact in business communication

Nowadays, business contacts between Iran and Russia are expanding more and more, and the success of this kind of communication depends on the level of proficiency in effective business communication skills. In this article are analyzed verbs of speech impact, used in business communication situations in the Russian and Persian languages. The purpose of the article is to identify these verbs, their functions and specifics in the Russian and Persian languages. The relevance of this article is determined by the necessity and importance of studying verbs of speech impact for Iranian students, especially in business communication. Due to the expansion and successful development of Iranian-Russian business, cultural, economic, and trade relations, there is a need to teach business communication, official business correspondence to Iranian students studying Russian as a foreign language. If we take into account the fact that the learning process is conducted outside the language environment, the topic of this article becomes even more relevant. These verbs are an integral part of oral and written business communication. They are an important component, without which business correspondence and business communication are impossible. The relevance of the work is also determined by the goals and objectives of teaching Russian as a foreign language in an Iranian audience and correct language knowledge in a non-linguistic environment. The theoretical and practical significance of the work lies in the fact that students as well as translators can use the conclusions of the article as additional material in classes of Russian as a foreign language at the departments of Russian in Iranian universities.

Mohammad Ebrahim Jafari: Aesthetics of Painting in Poetry

The article is devoted to the creative heritage of the outstanding figure of Iranian culture — poet and artist Mohammad Ebrahim Jafari (1940–2018). The novelty of the presented research is determined by the almost complete absence of scientific works devoted to this issue: basic biographical facts, analysis of artistic language and the specific imagery of M. E. Jafari are poorly represented even in the Persian language. The purpose of the work is to identify the features of the national-cultural horizon of the synthetic genre combining painting and poetry developed by Jafari. To achieve this goal, it was necessary, firstly, to trace the poet’s biography; secondly, to clarify the nature of the artistic images created by him at different stages of his life and to analyze the original method of the author’s initiative as a way of artistic enrichment of the new synthetic genre. The multifaceted nature of the research subject determined the need for an interdisciplinary approach and the use of a complex of methods such as biographical, hermeneutic, and comparative typological. The author of the article has studied all the video materials and interviews of the poet published to date, his paintings, as well as a collection of selected poems. The author of the article also translated, for the first time, from Persian all the poetic material presented in the text. The study showed that M. E. Jafari, who does not differentiate the forms of creativity, easily transfers the stylistic techniques of his paintings to poems, which fills his lyrics with different shades of colors and smells. Poetic rhythm can be seen in his paintings, at the same time, abstract pictorial images embody the most significance for the poet in terms of acuity of perception, creating images of space and time as a unique experience, extremely concrete in its strength and depth. The masterly combination of abstract expressiveness and specificity of the sensual image makes it possible to attribute the deeply personal artistic creativity of M. E. Jafari to the cultural wave of new poetry, which meets the basic principles of the philosophy of Iranian modernism.

From virtual reality to cultural reality: integration of virtual reality into teaching culture in foreign language education

PurposeThis research paper aimed to investigate the affordances of using virtual reality (VR) in teaching culture among in-service teachers of teaching Persian to speakers of other languages (TPSOL) in Iran.Design/methodology/approachThis qualitative case study, conducted at two Iranian universities, used purposeful sampling to select 34 eligible in-service Persian teachers from a pool of 73. Data collection used an open-ended questionnaire and interviews.FindingsBefore the TPSOL in-service training workshop, teachers expressed their reservations regarding the use of VR to teach culture in TPSOL courses. The emerged themes were “skepticism toward effectiveness,” “practicality concerns,” “limited awareness of VR applications,” “technological apprehension” and “prevalence of traditional teaching paradigms.” During the post-workshop interview, it was discovered that the teachers’ perceptions of VR in teaching culture had undergone a positive shift. The workshop generated emergent themes that reflected positive perceptions and affordances for using VR to teach culture in TPSOL, including “enhanced cultural immersion,” “increased student engagement,” “simulation of authentic cultural experiences,” and “facilitation of interactive learning environments.”Research limitations/implicationsOne primary limitation is the lack of prior experience with VR for teaching practices in real-world classrooms among the participants. While the study aimed to explore the potential of VR in enhancing pedagogical approaches, the absence of participants with prior exposure to VR in educational contexts may impact the generalizability of the findings to a broader population. Additionally, the study faced practical constraints, such as the unavailability of sufficient facilities in the workshop. As a result, the instructor had to project the VR cont7ent on a monitor, potentially diverging from the immersive nature of true VR experiences. These limitations offer opportunities for future research to refine methodologies and gain a more comprehensive understanding of the implications of integrating VR into teaching practices.Originality/valueExtensive research has been conducted on the effectiveness of VR in language education. However, there is a significant gap in research on TPSOL, which is considered a less commonly taught language. This study aims to address this gap by exploring the use of VR in the TPSOL through the lenses of in-service teachers. As part of a larger investigation, this qualitative inquiry focuses on the perceptions of in-service teachers about VR, with a particular emphasis on the cultural understanding of the Persian language.

Inborn error of immunity associated with allergic and allergic like symptoms

Introduction: Inborn error of immunity (IEI) includes variety of genetic disorders that affect both the innate and acquired immune system. The number of primary immune deficiency disorders is increasing due to advanced laboratory testing methods. The patients with IEI are susceptible to multiple infectious and non-infectious diseases، including autoimmune disorders، allergies، and malignancies. Several studies have shown an increasing prevalence of non-infectious disorders in patients in IEI. Among the non-infectious manifestations of primary immunodeficiency، allergic symptoms can play an effective and important role in diagnosis and treatment of these patients.&#x0D; Methods: Articles were searched in Google Scholar، PubMed، Web of Science، and Scopus databases. In this review، we have tried to use the latest and most reliable articles related to the subject that have been published in Persian and English language.&#x0D; Conclusion: Allergic diseases can be a common part of some primary immunodeficiency diseases. Even in some types of primary immunodeficiency، they are considered the main symptom and important indicator of the disease، which are very decisive factors for the diagnosis of immunodeficiency.

Spanning the Spectrum of Hatred Detection: A Persian Multi-Label Hate Speech Dataset with Annotator Rationales

With the alarming rise of hate speech in online communities, the demand for effective NLP models to identify instances of offensive language has reached a critical point. However, the development of such models heavily relies on the availability of annotated datasets, which are scarce, particularly for less-studied languages. To bridge this gap for the Persian language, we present a novel dataset specifically tailored to multi-label hate speech detection. Our dataset, called Phate, consists of an extensive collection of over seven thousand manually-annotated Persian tweets, offering a rich resource for training and evaluating hate speech detection models on this language. Notably, each annotation in our dataset specifies the targeted group of hate speech and includes a span of the tweet which elucidates the rationale behind the assigned label. The incorporation of these information expands the potential applications of our dataset, facilitating the detection of targeted online harm or allowing the benchmark to serve research on interpretability of hate speech detection models. The dataset, annotation guideline, and all associated codes are accessible at https://github.com/Zahra-D/Phate.

About the origin of the Ayrums

&#x0D; &#x0D; &#x0D; In more recent times, political problems faced by all-Turkic toponymy did not leave the toponymic system of Azerbaijan out of the grip of these challenges. In scientific journals, symposiums, and conferences, the opinions of our linguists, historians, and geographers regarding the linguistic and etymological analyses of any toponymic unit, turning from scientific debates into personal conflicts and outpourings of dissatisfaction, diverted attention from the correct and fair steps taken by honest researchers in the direction of solving the problem. Regretfully, it can be noted that sometimes, without any reason, the search for the explanation of our onomastic units in the Persian and Armenian languages has been connected with the fact that our territory borders Iran and Armenia. But we should not forget the fact that throughout history, Azerbaijan has bordered the Iravan Khanate, South Azerbaijan, and Türkiye. We must not forget that the population here consists entirely of Turkic tribes. Armenians who occupied our historical homeland not only tried to adopt our native names in those areas but in general, the representatives of this nation have always taken a biased position with the desire to appropriate toponyms of Turkish origin. Their main goal was to falsify the fact that our people live in our homeland, which they have owned for thousands of years, by changing these names. One of the ancient Oghuz tribes, the Ayrums contributed to the origin of the Azerbaijani people. The lack of substantial research on this tribe has led to the creation of fictional ideas about the origin of the Ayrums that have no scientific basis in certain periods. Surely, all this indicates the negative intentions of the Armenians and their allies, who from time to time steal the names of ancient Turkic tribes from our history and create a so-called history for themselves. G. Garagashli, a scientist who conducted serious research on the Ayrums for the first time, clarified many points in his work based on quite valid and logical arguments. G. Garagashli advises his colleagues, who do not agree with his views, to prioritize not only archaeological but also paleontological (linguistic) research in the region inhabited by Ayrums when re-investigating this topic. It is possible to draw confident theoretical conclusions based on thorough research. To preserve its national memory, every nation must first of all have its place names. From this point of view, toponyms are of exceptional importance as an invaluable source for the study of the language, history, geography and ethnography of our people. Our old tribal names, beliefs, and language units live probably better live on oeconym. «Ayrums» is one of the ethno-toponyms that keep our ancestry alive.&#x0D; &#x0D; &#x0D;

One Hundred Thousand Greetings!

Abstract The Judeo-Persian texts from the Afghan Ginza provide us with unique information about the Jewish communities in Central Asia before the Mongol invasion. Among these texts, some letters can be considered not only the earliest evidence of the New Persian language, but more specifically the earliest evidence of the epistolary tradition in New Persian. This paper examines the opening sections of these letters in order to demonstrate and discuss the changes and the evolution of the opening formulae over time.

The influence of the Arabic language on the Persian language in the mirror of the prose ‘Al-Monsha’at by Farhad Mirza Mo’tamid al-Dawlah

العلاقة بين اللغة العربيّة واللغة الفارسيّة لها تاريخ ماضٍ بعيد، علاقة برزت جليّا مع دخول الإسلام إلى إيران وتزامنا مع ظهور أولى باكورة النتاج الأدببي الفارسي في القرنين الثالث والرابع الهجريين. وفي هذه الأثناء، كانت حصّة تأثير اللغة العربيّة على الفارسيّة أكثر من صاحبتها، وقد وصل هذا التأثير إلى ذروته في القرنين السابع والثامن، وفي المنهج الذي اشتُهر بالنمط العراقي. وقد كان لهذه الحركة في العصور الأخرى إقبال وإدبار، خاصّة في عهدي الصفويّة والقاجاريّة (1158-1304هـ.ش/ 1779ـ1925م)؛ واستمرّ الشعراء وكتّاب اللغة الفارسيّة في هذا المسار على غرار أسلافهم.أحد هؤلاء الكتّاب هو فرهاد ميرزا معتمد الدولة، الملقّب بربّ السيف والقلم، وهو أديب وكاتب عاش في العهد القاجاريّ. في رسائله التي اشتُهرت بـ«منشآت فرهاد ميرزا» نرى تأثّرا ملحوظا وبشتّى الطرق من اللغة العربيّة، وقد زيّن نثره بالمفردات العربيّة وكذلك بأشعارها وأمثالها.نظرا لأهميّة هذا الموضوع، يسعى هذا البحث أن يدرس مدى نفوذ وتأثير اللغة العربيّة في نصوص فرهاد ميرزا النثريّة عن طريق المقارنة، هذا التأثير الذي تجلّى تارة بالاستناد إلى آيات القرآن والأحاديث، وتارة أخرى بالأمثال والأشعار.أظهرت الدراسة التي تمّ إجراؤها أنّ جزءا كبيرا من منشآت فرهاد ميرزا من حيث الألفاظ والعبارات، وكذلك من حيث المضامين والمعاني، استعير من اللغة العربيّة، ولهذا فقد ظهر التأثير من هذه اللغة في نصوصه النثريّة ظهورا واضحا.
