Background: Previous studies have examined relationship between cognitive function and lifestyle; however, the nature of this relationship is expected to vary in diverse cultural and low-income setting where lifestyle practices differ from those in high-income countries.

Aim: This study aims to investigate the correlation between lifestyle factors and cognitive function among individuals aged 60 years and older in 2021.

Methods: This cross-sectional, Community-based study involved 300 older adults from comprehensive urban health centers in Khorramabad, Iran, selected through stratified cluster sampling.

Objectives: Measures to reduce nurses' fatigue are necessary to improve the patient's care and the nurse's health and well-being. This study investigated the effectiveness of aromatherapy with Pelargonium graveolens (P. graveolens) essential oil on fatigue and sleep quality of nurses working in intensive care units (ICU).

Background: Pre-hospital emergency care is a critical part of the health care system. Helicopter emergency medical service (HEMS) is a novel part of the medical services of the health care delivery system. The goal of these medical services is to provide appropriate treatments at the right place and time.

The effect ofannealing is investigated in GdCaMnO(GCMO) thin films in oxygen and vacuum atmospheres. We show that the reduction of oxygen content in GCMO lattice by vacuum annealing induced more oxygen complex vacancies in both subsurface and interface regions and larger grain domains when compared with the pristine one. Consequently, the double exchange interaction is suppressed and the metallic-ferromagnetic state below Curie temperature turned into spin-glass insulating state.

The evolution of lattice strain on crystallographic domain structures and magnetic properties of epitaxial low-bandwidth manganite GdCaMnO (GCMO) films have been studied with films on different substrates: SrTiO, (LaAlO)(SrAlTaO), SrLaAlO, and MgO. The X-ray diffraction data reveals that all of the films, except the films on MgO, are epitaxial and have an orthorhombic structure. Cross-sectional transmission electron microscopy (TEM) shows lattice mismatch-dependent microstructural defects.
