Safety and Adverse Effects Related to COVID-19 Viral Vector Vaccines: A Systematic Review.

Background: There have been safety concerns regarding the COVID-19 vaccines because of their unprecedented speed of development. Therefore, systematic reviews are necessary to address these concerns and reduce public hesitancy regarding COVID-19 vaccines. This study aims to systematically review the reported adverse events related to viral vector COVID-19 vaccines.

Breast Cancer Sentinel Lymph Node Detection Rate: First Large Scale Multi-Centric Data for Technetium Phytate.

Background: Sentinel lymph node biopsy (SLNB) with injection of radiopharmaceuticals is now the standard of care for staging the axilla in patients with breast cancer. Sulfur or antimony colloids labeled with Technetium (Tc) are used globally for the procedure, with a detection rate of 94%. However, in Iran, Tc phytate has been used because it is more easily producible in the country.

Evaluation of HER2 Positivity Based on Clinicopathological Findings in HER2 Borderline Tumors in Iranian Patients with Breast Cancer.

Background & Objective: Human epidermal growth receptor-2 (HER2) gene amplification is an important predictive and prognostic factor in breast cancer treatment. However, the expression of HER2 determined by immunohistochemistry (IHC) is considered as borderline in some cases, and confirmation of the HER2 status by either fluorescent in situ hybridization (FISH) or chromogenic in situ hybridization (CISH) is necessary for correct treatment decision-making. Considering the high cost of FISH and CISH, we aimed to investigate whether clinicopathological findings of the tumor could predict the HER2 status.

Evaluating the effects of air disinfectants in decontamination of COVID-19 aerosols.

Introduction: Airborne transmission is the most  crucial mode of COVID-19 transmission. Therefore, disinfecting the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2) aerosols float can have important implications in limiting COVID-19 transmission. Herein, we aimed to review the studies that utilized various disinfectants to decontaminate and inactivate the SARS-CoV-2 aerosols.

Complications of COVID-19 Vaccines during Pregnancy; a Systematic Review.

Introduction: Rare serious complications have been documented after COVID-19 vaccination as clinical research proceeded and new target populations, such as children and ‎pregnant women, were included. In this study, we attempted to review the literature relevant to ‎pregnancy complications and maternal outcomes of COVID-19 immunization in pregnant women. ‎.

Safety and Adverse Events Related to Inactivated COVID-19 Vaccines and Novavax;a Systematic Review.

Introduction: Knowledge of the safety of vaccines is crucial, both to prevent and cure them and to decrease the public hesitation in receiving vaccines. Therefore, this study aimed to systematically review the adverse events reported for inactivated vaccines and Novavax.

Methods: In this systematic review, the databases of PubMed, Scopus, Cochrane, and Web of Science were searched on September 15, 2021.

Design, development, and evaluation of a registry system for hyperbaric oxygen therapy: A methodological study.

Background And Aims: Hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT), utilizes 100% oxygen at pressures greater than sea-level atmospheric pressure, for the treatment of conditions in which the tissues starve for oxygen. The Undersea and Hyperbaric Medical Society (UHMS) has granted HBOT approval for the treatment of various conditions. On the other hand, applying informatics registry systems can improve care delivery, ameliorate outcomes, and reduce the costs and medical errors for the patients receiving HBOT treatment.

Safety and Adverse Events Related to COVID-19 mRNA Vaccines; a Systematic Review.

Introduction: Knowledge of vaccine-related adverse events is crucial as they are among the most ‎important factors ‎that cause hesitation in receiving vaccines. Therefore, we aimed to systematically ‎review the adverse events ‎related to the mRNA vaccines reported in the literature.‎.

Mucormycosis infection in patients with COVID-19: A systematic review.

Introduction: Several reports previously described mucormycosis co-infection in patients with COVID-19. As mucormycosis and COVID-19 co-infection might adversely affect patients' outcomes, we aimed to systematically review the related evidence and the subsequent outcomes.

Methods: We conducted a systematic review of relevant articles searching the keywords in the online databases of PubMed, Scopus, Embase, Cochrane, and Web of Science.

Evaluation of the indication of BRCA1/2 genetic tests in Iranian women and acceptance rate of risk-reducing surgeries in BRCA mutation carriers.

Background: A higher risk for breast and ovarian cancer has been reported in BRCA carriers and prophylactic surgeries are proposed to reduce this risk. This retrospective cohort study has evaluated the indication of BRCA1/2 genetic tests in Iranian women and the rate of women's acceptance of prophylactic surgeries recommended by the surgeon.

Methods: Medical records of 147 high-risk women according to NCCN clinical practice guidelines who referred for BRCA mutations testing were assessed.
