2Introduction: Osteoarthritis (OA) is the most common joint disorder in adults, which gradually reduces the joints and increases the pain, leading to disability in daily activities. The purpose of the study is to determine the effectiveness of self-care training in a combined method on the nature of pain and daily activities of patients with knee osteoarthritis. Methods: In this semi-experimental study, 70 patients with osteoarthritis of the knee referred to the Orthopedic and Rheumatology Clinic in Ahvaz were randomly divided into two self-care training groups using a combined method and a control group based on the inclusion criteria. The control group received self-care training in the usual way. In the test group, self-care training was conducted by a combined method (film, lecture, use of pamphlets, SMS) during 5 sessions in groups and individually. The research samples were followed up in person and by phone for three months. The data of the study were completed by using three questionnaires on the nature of Mag Gill pain, pain intensity VAS and WOMAC daily activity before, during one month, two months, and three months after the intervention. The results of the study were analyzed using SPSS 23 software and using descriptive and inferential statistical tests. Results: Self-care training in a combined method caused a significant decrease in the intensity of pain in the intervention group compared to the control group (P=0.001). Daily activity showed a significant difference between the two intervention and control groups (P=0.001), which indicates improvement in activity in the intervention group. However, there was no significant change in the nature of pain after the intervention compared to before (P=0.01). Conclusion: According to the results of the research, combined training can be used for self-care and disease management to improve and modify the lifestyle, and improve the health and performance of patients.

2Introduction: Chronic back pain is one of the most common types of musculoskeletal pain in the elderly. The self-management based of the 5A training program for problem control has positive consequences for the elderly. This study aimed to evaluate the impact of the self-management-based of 5A program on the non-specific chronic low back pain of elderly patients. Methods: This clinical trial study was performed on 66 elderly patients with non-specific chronic low back pain refereed in the specialized and super-specialized clinics of Abadan University of Medical Sciences, 2022. The block randomization method assigned the patients to the experimental and control groups. The experimental group was trained in self-management programs based 5A model for 6 weeks and followed up for 8 weeks.  The scale was measured in two groups before intervention,4 weeks, and 8 weeks after intervention.  Data analysis using SPSS 22 software. Results: There was no significant difference in the average pain between the experimental and control groups before the intervention, while there was a significant difference between the two groups (P <0.001). In addition, the results showed that there was a significant difference in mean pain score between the two groups after four and eight weeks (P < 0.001). Conclusion: The implementation of the self-management program based on the 5A model in the elderly with non-specific chronic back pain is effective and can reduce the pain intensity, so nurses can use this self-management method as a supportive and non-pharmacological method in the control of non-specific chronic low back pain.

Findings: The results showed that there is a direct relationship between ambivalent insecure attachment style and death anxiety of nurses (P<0.05), and there is a relationship between emotion self-regulation and death anxiety (P<0.05). There is a direct relationship between negative emotion regulation strategies and death anxiety and an inverse relationship between positive emotion regulation strategies and death anxiety (P<0.05). Based on the results, there is no significant relationship between avoidant insecure attachment style and death anxiety (P<0.05). Conclusion: According to the results, there is a relationship between ambivalent insecure attachment style and emotion regulation with death anxiety in nurses working in the corona ward.

In this study, the method proposed by Whittemore & Knafl is used, which consists of five steps: A: identifying and determining the goal, B: searching for sources, C: evaluating data, D: analyzing data, and E: presenting results. . Using this method increases the accuracy of the study. Results: The result of the initial comprehensive search included 359 articles, and finally 11 articles were included in the study. The findings showed that the benefits and challenges of supervision and control in educational organizations are very large. But the main causes in educational organizations are the influence of supervision and control on the quality of education and the productivity of teachers, the enthusiasm and motivation of teachers towards the quality of the educational program, and improving the academic status of students. Conclusion: Considering the positive impact of supervision and control on the quality of education, it is suggested that educational organizations have a written plan for supervision and control in their organizations. The studies conducted showed that there are very few researches in the field of monitoring and control in universities, and considering the advantages and challenges mentioned, it is necessary for researchers to pay more attention to the issue of monitoring and control in universities. And this can improve the quality of education in universities.
