The data collection tool was a questionnaire with three parts including demographic information and disease history, clinical examinations, and LSQ lifestyle questionnaire. Data analysis was performed using SPSS software and univariate and multivariate logistic regression. A P-Value of <0.05 was considered statistically significant.
Results: The results showed that the mean age in the group with hypertension was 55.30
±13.16 years and in the healthy group it was 49.23
±12.69 years. Among the life style dimensions, psychological health (R = 0.96 and P-Value <0.05) and avoiding the use of drugs and narcotics (R = 0.92 and 0.05). P-Value <0.05) had the highest correlation with the blood pressure.
Conclusion: According to the findings, health can be improved by improving the dimensions of lifestyle. Therefore, health policymakers need to look at lifestyle dimensions to identify high-risk groups, increase screening efficiencies, and promote the health.

Abstract
Introduction: The risk of uterine cancer in women with a history of genital warts is high. In addition, uterine cancer has a significant effect on quality of life and psychological stress. The aim of this study was to investigate the Correlation of health belief model constructs with preventive behaviors of genital warts in women in Bandar Abbas.
Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted on 720 women who aged 15-49 years and were selected using multi-stage cluster sampling method in Bandar Abbas in 2020. Data were collected using a valid and reliable researcher-made questionnaire and analyzed using SPSS software. Pearson correlation coefficient was used to investigate the relationship between health belief model constructs and health behavior.
Results: The mean and standard deviation of age of participants was 30.43 ±8 8.697. The scores of perceived benefits and perceived intensity were lower than the average level and the rest of the structures were almost close to the average level. Based on the results, knowledge (P-Value<0.001), perceived sensitivity (P-Value<0.001), perceived intensity (P-Value<0.001), and perceived self-efficacy (P-Value<0.001) had a significant correlation with health behavior. There was no significant correlation between perceived benefits (P-Value>0.001) and perceived barriers (P-Value>0.356) with health behavior.
Conclusion: Based on the results, the Health Belief Model can be a suitable model for the prevention and reduction of sexually transmitted infections, including genital warts. The findings of the present study indicate that the health belief model can be a useful tool for health professionals as a theoretical context in evaluating prevention programs and reducing sexually transmitted diseases such as genital warts.

Abstract
Introduction: Determining the survival rate of cancer patients is a prerequisite for development of prevention and treatment services and implementation of cancer screening programs. The aim of this study was to determine the survival rate of breast cancer and to investigate the related factors.
Methods: In the Cancer Registration Center of Hormozgan Health Department, 212 people with initial diagnosis of breast cancer had been registered. The Kaplan-Meyer method was used to determine the survival rate and determine the related risk factors using Cox proportional hazard regression model. For all tests, the error rate was considered 5%. Data analysis was performed by SPSS software (version 19).
Results: The results showed that the five-year survival rate in patients with breast cancer is 80.2%. The risk of death is lower in people diagnosed in the early stages of cancer than in those diagnosed in the advanced stages (CI = 0.482-0.482: HR = 0.22). Risk of death in people with education of 8 classes and less was 0.267 (HR= 0.27, CI: 0.097-0.664)
and in people with education of more than eight classes it was 0.254 (HR= 0.36, CI: 0.097-0.664).
Conclusion: According to the results of this study, implementation of screening program and early diagnosis of breast cancer in women with low levels of education, especially in the first level of the health system, is highly needed. In addition, prompt and timely referral of suspects is necessary.

Abstract
Objective Waste anesthetic gases (WAGs) are known as one the most important air pollutants in operating rooms. This study was to evaluate occupational exposure to WAGs in the operating room of a hospital in Shiraz, Iran, by measuring the urine concentration of nitrous oxide, isoflurane, and sevoflurane.
Methods This is a descriptive-analytical study with a cross-sectional design that was conducted on 60 people divided into two groups of 30 including exposed group (operating and recovery rooms staff) and non-exposed or control group (administrative staff). Urine samples were collected at the end of the morning shift (after at least three hours of exposure). Urine samples were analyzed by gas chromatography–mass spectrometry method (Agilent 5977B device, paired with a headspace autosampler. Data analysis was conducted in SPSS software, version 21.
Results Urinary concentrations of nitrous oxide, isoflurane, and sevoflurane were found to be 175.8±77.52 μg/L (ranged 7.98-319.91), 4.95±3.43 μg/L (ranged 0.78-14.9) and 15.0 3±16.06 μg/L (ranged 0.76-46.40).
Conclusion The operating room personnel of the selected hospital are exposed to high concentration of WAGs (nitrous oxide, isoflurane and sevoflurane).
