Introduction: Parents (especially mothers) undergo severe stress and experience psychological distress after the diagnosis of their child's cancer. there are individual differences among mothers in distress tolerance. The main purpose of this study was to determine the role of the mother’ s distress tolerance on the internalization and externalization problems in children with cancer. Methods: The study was a descriptive correlational study. 130 mothers who have a child with cancer and admitted to the Pediatric Cancer Hospital (Mahak) participated in this study. They completed two Distress Tolerance Scales (DTS) and Child Behavioral Inventory (CBCL) (a Parenting report version). Results: Among the four dimensions of distress tolerance scale, emotion regulation had the most significant correlation with the internalization and externalization behavioral problems. This connection was more intense about internalizing problems. Simultaneously multiple regression analysis showed that the distress tolerance effected on child's physical complaints more than other factors; however, it could not predict law-breaking behavior in children at a significant level. Conclusions: The level of the mother's distress through parenting style, learning of coping with stress and quality of interaction with the child can influence the internalizing and externalizing behavior problems in children.

Introduction: Based on the theory of optimal motor learning, autonomic factors and the focus of external attention facilitate the performance and learning of motor skills. The purpose of the present study was to investigate the effect of autonomy factors, focus attention and the combination of these factors on the implementation of hands-on skills in children with attention deficit / hyperactivity disorder. Methods: The present study was a quasi-experimental, pre-test, post-test, and control group. The statistical population of the study consisted of all 2nd and 3rd grade elementary school children in Babol province in the academic year 2018. For the screening of children with ADHD, teachers 'and parents' ratios of Conners were used. A sample sampling method was used to select the sample. The sample consisted of 24 children, in the experimental group 12 were children and in control group 12 children. Then, the Farsi Handwriting Assessment Tool was used to measure children's handwriting as a pre-test for both groups. The children of the experimental group were placed in the autonomy and focus areas of external attention, and the control group did not receive any interventions. At the end of this period, children's handwriting tools were administered as a post-test for both groups. Data were analyzed using variance analysis at P <0. 001 level. Results: The results of the study showed that both children with attention deficit / hyperactivity disorder had better performance in control / self-control position than other situations (P <0. 001). There was no significant difference between the other situations. Conclusions: Based on the results of this study, improving handwriting skills, autonomy is more effective than the focus of external attention, and the feature of the automatic implementation of handwriting skills in children as well as the importance of autonomy for improving handwriting skills was shown.

Introduction: Congenital cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection is the most common intrauterine infection, and while many women of reproductive age are CMV-positive, neonates born to these mothers can be asymptomatic, but they can be in later years with permanent and progressive effects, hearing loss is the main side effect. So, early detection and treatment can prevent its progress. On the other hand, this congenital infection can only be shown as a reduced intrauterine growth. In this study, we examined the frequency of CMV in the small for gestational age (SGA) neonates in AlZahra hospital during 2015-2016. Methods: This analytical cross-sectional study was performed on SGA infants admitted to Alzahra Hospital in Rasht, Iran during a one-year period)2015-2016). Data from the neonates and their mother were gathered by a checklist. They were extracted and their urine was sent to the laboratory for CMV PCR examination. Results: Of 205 SGA infants, 138 cases of urine specimens were reported for CMV PCR, two cases reported positive (1. 4%) for a 38-week-old female with a weight of 2350, followed by a 34-weekold boy with a weight of 1320 and CBC tests (HBV-WBC). They were normal, one in rural and the other in the city. The two CMV-positive children were generally well-off. The average age of their mothers was 32 years old. The hearing loss of these two infants was reported at normal birth but was not followed up for follow-up. Conclusions: Regarding the importance of CMV infection in hearing loss and the importance of timely intervention in the treatment of hearing loss, it is unlikely that the routine CMV study in SGA infants is important in order to detect hearing impairment, movement and these neonates will be diagnosed early and be intervene in a timely manner.

Introduction: Congenital anomalies are common causes of medical interventions, long-term illness and death. The aim of this study was to determine the risk factors of congenital anomalies in disabled patients under 15 years old registered in Welfare Organization of Shahrekord. Methods: The present study was a case– control study. 350 disabled patients registered in the Welfare Organization of Shahrekord and 350 matched healthy children were included in study. Demographic information and probable risk factors were recorded in the checklist through the patient's file and interviews with parents. Results: The most common anomalies were cardiac disorders (31. 1%), cerebral palsy (18. 3%) and Down syndrome (14. 9%). The body weight, length and head circumference at birth, mean father's and mother's age at the time of pregnancy, Father's and mother's ethnicity, economic status, education, type of delivery, birth season, maternal body mass index during pregnancy, maternal diabetes mellitus, hypothyroidism, hypertension and infectious disease during pregnancy, parental addiction, parents' smoking, folic acid and iron intake during pregnancy, drug use during pregnany, hypoxia, consanguinity and family history of congenital anomaly were significantly different in two groups (p<0. 05). Based on the results of logistic regression Type of delivery (caesarean section), low socioeconomic status, father’ s age, family history of congenital anomalies, father’ s smoking and infant hypoxia had a significant correlation with the congenital anomalies. Conclusions: Since early identification of congenital anomalies is essential for preventive interventions, considering the risk factors of this study will be helpful for primary prevention. Women at risk especially from poor socioeconomic should be mentioned and screened for more support and prenatal care.
