				<abstract><![CDATA[Artificial intelligence (AI) is becoming increasingly adopted across various disciplines. The integration of artificial intelligence technologies into medical research introduces significant ethical challenges that necessitate the strengthening of ethical frameworks (1). Specifically, in midwifery and reproductive health research—a field defined by profound ethical sensitivity and human impact—the use of AI tools for tasks like manuscript drafting, literature review, and hypothesis generation poses a new set of ethical imperatives requiring urgent scholarly consensus.]]></abstract>

				<abstract><![CDATA[Background &amp; aim: Despite the recognized significance of preconception health behaviors (PCHBs) in optimizing maternal and child health outcomes, women of reproductive-age often lack awareness of preconception health, leading to the practice of unhealthy behaviors before pregnancy. This study aimed to critically analyze and synthesize evidence from published studies regarding factors influencing PCHBs among women of reproductive age, based on the health promotion model (HPM).Methods: This integrative review followed the five-step method of Whittemore and Knafl (2005). After problem identification, a literature search was conducted using databases of ProQuest, PubMed, Cochrane Library, CINAHL, Ovid Medline, and ScienceDirect, searching for qualitative or quantitative articles published between June 2014 and June 2024 on preconception health behaviors among women of reproductive age (15-49 years). The QualSyst assessment tool was used for data evaluation.  Data was analyzed and presented using narrative summarization and a constant comparison method.Results: The initial search resulted in 1,490 studies from those 515 duplicates were removed and out of 975 remained studies, 114 records were analyzed for eligibility and finally 22 articles were included in this review following a quality appraisal. The data from the included studies were systematically extracted and synthesized according to the constructs of the HPM. Three overarching categories of influencing factors including individual factors, cognitive factors, and social factors were identified. Conclusion: The study highlights the significant influence of individual, cognitive, and social factors on PCHBs among women of reproductive age, emphasizing the need for tailored health promotion strategies.]]></abstract>

				<abstract><![CDATA[Background &amp; aim: Women’s empowerment is the process of enabling women to actively and creatively participate in all aspects of their lives. Despite its importance, misunderstandings persist globally regarding women’s empowerment, especially in the Islamic context. This study aimed to review the application of Islamic laws in different dimensions of women&#039;s empowerment.Methods: This narrative review, based on the SANRA scale, examined Persian and English articles indexed in Scopus, PubMed, Web of Science, ProQuest, Google Scholar, and Iranian databases including SID, Magiran, and IranMedex. Articles were included without a time limit up to March 2022 and updated until 2024. Studies addressing educational, economic, social, political, and sexual and reproductive health dimensions of women’s empowerment were analyzed.Results: Out of 728 retrieved articles, 9 met the inclusion criteria. Findings highlighted that women’s empowerment plays a crucial role in improving women’s lives. The Qur’an addresses most aspects of empowerment, including education, economy, social and political participation, and sexual/reproductive health. However, in many Muslim societies, women do not fully enjoy the rights granted in Islam. Cultural norms, patriarchal structures, and political oppression often limit women’s opportunities and autonomy.Conclusion: The practical implementation of Islamic teachings and Qur’anic guidance across multiple dimensions of women’s empowerment can provide an effective framework to enhance women’s status. Promoting education, economic participation, social and political engagement, and sexual/reproductive health according to Islamic recommendations can support women’s development and equality within socio- cultural contexts shaped by Islamic values and traditions.]]></abstract>

				<abstract><![CDATA[Background &amp; aim: In Indonesia, premarital sex is currently a common concern among many sexual problems affecting adolescents. This study aimed to determine the effect of proactive cognitive game methods based on self-control theory on knowledge and premarital sexual behavior of adolescent girls.
Methods: A total of 127 female adolescent students from two senior high schools in Surabaya City, Indonesia, were included in this quasi-experimental research. They were selected using simple random sampling and equally divided into two groups. The students received health education on premarital sexual behavior through a proactive cognitive game (intervention group) and lecture method (control group) in one session each for 60 minutes. Assessment of participants’ knowledge and premarital sexual behavior in two groups was performed using knowledge and premarital sexual behavior questionnaires before and three days after intervention. Data were analyzed by Wilcoxon signed-rank and Mann–Whitney test using SPSS version 26.
Results: There was a significant difference in knowledge (game: P=0.000, lecture: P=0.003) and sexual behavior (game: P=0.000, lecture: P=0.000) between pre- and post-test. Moreover, there was a significant difference in knowledge (P=0.023) and sexual behavior changes (P=0.001) between the game and control groups. The game group showed more impact on improving participants’ knowledge and reducing sexual behavior than the control group.
Conclusion: The proactive cognitive game intervantion was more effective in enhancing the knowledge of participants and reducing premarital sexual behavior than the lecture group. This game method is therefore recommended as a reference for health education to prevent premarital sexual behavior.]]></abstract>

				<abstract><![CDATA[Background &amp; aim: Globally, cervical cancer mortality rates remain alarmingly high, emphasizing the significance of HPV as a cause and exacerbated by unequal access to effective prevention and treatment, a critical issue in middle-income countries.This study focused on the perception and acceptability of self-sampling for HPV among female attendees of gynaecology clinics.
Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted among 256 participants aged 25–65 years who regularly attended gynaecology clinics at a tertiary hospital in South West Nigeria in 2022. Participants were selected via simple random sampling and completed a semi-structured questionnaire on HPV self-sampling. The collected data were analysed using SPSS software version 25, including an examination of associations via Fisher&#039;s exact test and logistic regression at a significance level of 0.05.
Results: The participants had an average age of 35.8 ±9.7 years and were almost all literate (98.0%). The mean perception score was 9.4±3.1 (74.2%), with approximately one quarter (25.8%) having a negative perception. The mean acceptability score was 9.2±1.7 (96.5%).   Respondents with good HPV knowledge were 5.4 times more likely to have a positive perception than those with poor knowledge (OR = 5.361, p = 0.001, CI: 2.047–14.037).
Conclusion: In this study, many participants had a positive perception, and almost all had a high level of acceptability. Poor perception and inadequate education on self-sampling were related to a low level of acceptability of HPV self-sampling, indicating the need for additional infrastructure and guidelines regarding cervical cancer screening.]]></abstract>

				<abstract><![CDATA[Background &amp; aim: Health anxiety usually increases during new emerging pandemics. The perinatal period is a high-risk time in pandemics, and anxiety can negatively impact maternal and fetal outcomes. This study aimed to assess the psychometric properties of the Persian version of the Short Health Anxiety Questionnaire (SHAI) during the COVID-19 pandemic in the perinatal period.Methods: This validation study was performed on 339 perinatal women from health centers affiliated with universities of medical sciences in southern Iran in 2019 using a multi-stage sampling method. Pregnant and postpartum women received a questionnaire, while those in the delivery unit completed it with the help of a researcher.  Variables were evaluated by univariate analysis. Construct validity was assessed via exploratory factor analysis (EFA). Cronbach&#039;s alpha reliability and criterion EFA and validity were conducted using SPSS-19.Results: The mean and standard deviation of women&#039;s age were 28.39 ± 5.52 years. 63.5% were ≤30 years old. Three factors with the eigenvalues of 8.34, 1.62, and 1.39, labeled &quot;illness likelihood,&quot; &quot;negative consequences,&quot; and &quot;illness severity factor,&quot; respectively, accounted for 63% of the total variance. The total Cronbach&#039;s alpha coefficient of the scale was 0.92, and the three subscales ranged from 0.81 to 0.92. The correlation coefficient between subscales ranged from 0.51 to 0.67. Conclusion: Although the Persian-SHAI showed promise, given that the study was conducted on a specific group during a particular period, caution is advised when generalizing its use to general populations. Further research with more diverse sample is recommended to confirm its applicability.]]></abstract>

				<abstract><![CDATA[Background &amp; aim: While epidural analgesia is regarded as the gold standard for managing labor pain, some studies suggest that it may be linked to increased fear of childbirth (FOC). We aimed to compare the effects of lavender aromatherapy and epidural analgesia on FOC during labor and postpartum.Methods: This randomized controlled trial was conducted on 56 women with full-term singleton pregnancies, admitted for vaginal delivery at one teaching hospital in Qom, Iran between October 2021 and June 2022. Participants were randomly allocated to either the aromatherapy group (receiving essential oil of lavender) or epidural analgesia with ropivacaine group at the onset of active labor. Outcomes were assessed using the Delivery Fear Scale, the Wijma Delivery Expectancy Questionnaire, and the visual analog scale. Univariate general linear models were employed to compare the groups.Results: There was no significant difference in mean scores of FOC between the two groups one hour post-intervention (P = 0.629). Postpartum FOC mean scores were significantly lower in the aromatherapy group compared to the epidural group at both two hours (47.0 vs. 63.8, P &lt; 0.001) and five weeks (40.0 vs. 66.1, P &lt; 0.001) postpartum. The mean labor pain intensity was higher and the duration of the active phase was shorter in the aromatherapy group (Ps &lt; 0.001).Conclusion: Although lavender aromatherapy is not as effective as epidural analgesia in alleviating labor pain intensity, it appears to reduce postpartum childbirth fear and may also shorten the first stage of labor. Larger trials with longer follow-ups are recommended to provide high certainty evidence in this area.]]></abstract>

				<abstract><![CDATA[Background &amp; aim: Breastfeeding is not merely a biological act but it is shaped by social factors, including gender roles and cultural Pressures. This study aimed to investigate the correlation between gender role attitudes, maternal Competence, and breastfeeding performance among primiparous women in Iran.Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted, involving 320 primiparous women with 4-6-months-old infants in urban comprehensive health centers, Urmia, Iran, in 2022. Data collection tools included a demographic questionnaire, the Attitude towards Women scale (AWS) for assessing gender role attitudes, the Maternal Competence Questionnaire (MCQ), and a checklist for assessing breastfeeding performance. Random sampling was used, and data were analyzed by SPSS version 21 using the Pearson correlation test, chi-square test, and multivariate linear regression.Results: The average age of women was 27.53 ± 6.05 years. Mean scores (±SD) for gender role attitude, maternal Competence, and breastfeeding performance were 27.75±5.11, 4.21±0.42, and 2.13±1.78, respectively. A significant association was found between gender role attitude and breastfeeding performance (P=0.014). Maternal Competence showed a significant correlation with breastfeeding performance (P&lt;0.01), as did gender role attitude with maternal Competence (P=0.019, r=0.13). Gender role attitude (P=0.000, B=0.49) and maternal Competence (P=0.000, B=1.245) were identified as predictors of breastfeeding performance, explaining 68.4% of the variance.Conclusion: Psychosocial factors such as gender role attitudes and maternal Competence significantly impact breastfeeding initiation and continuation, enhancing its success. The findings suggest that interventions aimed at promoting egalitarian gender role attitudes and enhancing maternal competenc may lead to improved breastfeeding outcomes.]]></abstract>

				<abstract><![CDATA[Background &amp; aim: Providing the information needs of couples in an easy and low-cost manner has a fundamental and significant role in the health of the family, and promoting childbearing. This research study was conducted to analyze reproductive health information and services websites.Methods: All relevant websites were searched in Google, Yahoo and Bing search engines with the keywords &quot;pregnancy&quot;, &quot;childbirth&quot;, &quot;childbearing&quot;, website&quot; between August 2022 and February 2023.  Through the search, 85 websites were identified, and finally 40 were analyzed in terms of content and design. The content of websites were analyzed with conventional inductive content analysis approach, using MAXQDA software.Results: By analyzing the websites, 486 codes were extracted. All the codes were merged into three main categories including structural patterns, content patterns and service patterns. In the category of structural patterns, greater familiarity with the website accounted for 5.5%. In the category of content patterns, contents related to the pregnancy and childbirth (33.1%), factors influencing fertility (10.6%), family issues (10.2%) and women&#039;s health (8.02%) were the most popular contents on the web. In the category of service pattern, fertility and ovulation calendars accounted for the highest number of codes (6.7%)Conclusion: The themes identified on the websites covered a wide range of aspects related to fertility. The use of the discovered themes can serve as a suitable model to construct a comprehensive and inclusive website in the field of pregnancy and childbirth, but there is a need to produce more content regarding the promotion of childbearing.]]></abstract>

				<abstract><![CDATA[Background &amp; aim: Perimenopause is a natural transition from reproductive years into menopause that women experience it in their middle age. Although most women go through this period without experiencing psychological problems, some may experience anxiety.  Therefore, this study aimed to assess the cognitive-behavioral group therapy (CBGT) on the level of anxiety among perimenopausal women.
Methods: A randomized clinical trial was conducted on 42 premenopausal women (aged 45 to 60 years). Participants were recruited from one comprehensive health service center affiliated to Shahrood University of Medical Sciences, Shahrood, Iran, using convenience sampling. Participants were randomly assigned to either the CBGT or the control group (routine care) in a block design. The intervention group received seven weekly two-hour counseling sessions, with 8 to 10 participants in each group. The data were collected using the Hamilton Anxiety Rating Scale (HAM-A) and the Kupperman’s menopausal symptom questionnaire. Both groups completed questionnaires immediately after the intervention. To analyze data, independent t-test and paired t-test were employed. All statistical analysis was performed using SPSS version 24.
Results: There was no statistically significant difference between the two groups in the average total anxiety scores before the intervention (P=0.574). However, the total anxiety score were significantly decreased in the intervention group after the intervention, as compared with the control group (P&lt;0.001).
Conclusion: CBGT could reduce the symptoms of perimenopausal anxiety. Therefore, its use in clinical settings is recommended.]]></abstract>

				<abstract><![CDATA[Background &amp; aim: Fear of Childbirth (FOC) can range from a general anxiety disorder to a specific, intense phobia related to pregnancy and childbirth. Labor pain, as an inevitable and multidimensional experience, is closely related to women’s perception of childbirth and may interact with FOC. We conducted this study to compare the FOC and labor pain intensity in multiparous and primiparous women.Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted on 432 pregnant women using convenience sampling in Babol, Iran, between January 2018 and June 2019. All pregnant women completed the demographic and fear of childbirth (FOC) questionnaires. Then, labor pain intensity was measured four times in labor and postpartum using a visual analog scale (VAS). Data were analyzed with student t-test, paired t-test and linear regression model using SPSS version 16.Results: FOC in primiparous women was significantly higher than in multiparous mothers (MD: 12.08, P&lt;0.001). The multivariate linear regression showed that after adjusting the counfounding variables, in terms of intensity of pain in the active phase of labor (MD: 0.07; CI 95% -0.32, 0.47; P=0.71) and the phase of fetus expulsion (MD: 0.02; CI 95% -0.38, 0.44; P=0.89), there was no statistically significant difference between primiparous and multiparous women. However, multiparous women significantly experienced higher levels of pain compared with primiparous women during placental expulsion (MD: 0.52; CI 95% 0.01; P = 0.043).Conclusion: This study provides basic information for policy makers to pay more attention to reducing the fear and pain of childbirth in both primiparous and multiparous women.]]></abstract>

				<abstract><![CDATA[Background &amp; aim: Premenstrual syndrome (PMS) refers to a periodic recurrence of a combination of physical, psychological and behavioral changes in the pauses of the menstrual cycle that can disrupt one&#039;s functioning and communication. The present study was performed to evaluate the prevalence of PMS and its related factors among medical university students.Methods: This Cross-sectional study was conducted on 450 female students of different faculties of Golestan University of Medical Sciences, Gorgan, Iran in 2021. The data were collected using the demographic questionnaire and menstrual symptom assessment questionnaire (PSST) on a self-report basis. Data were analyzed by SPSS software version 16 using Chi-square, independent T and Mann- Whitney tests. Results: In this study, 68% of students had the criteria of PMS. PMS had a direct and significant relationship with educational field (P=0.001), ethnicity (P=0.023), academic degree (P=0.002), educational level (P=0.031) and BMI (P=0.001),. But it had an inverse significant relationship with the number of children (P=0.001). There was no statistically significant relationship between bleeding and marital status with PMS symptoms (P&lt;0.05).Conclusion: The results showed that premenstrual syndrome is common among female university students in Gorgan, North Iran. Educational Field, ethnicity, academic degree, educationl level and BMI had a significant direct relationship with PMS and the number of children had a significant inverse relationship with PMS. Therefore, it seems necessary to raise awareness of university students and provide them proper training about the symptoms of PMS when they entered to the university.]]></abstract>

				<abstract><![CDATA[Background &amp; aim: Pregnant Afghan immigrant women are a vulnerable population that often experience food insecurity. The Health Belief Model (HBM) is a recommended framework for nutrition education programs to influence health behavior. This study determined the effect of HBM-based nutritional education on the nutritional behaviors of pregnant Afghan immigrant women.Methods: This randomized clinical trial used a pretest-posttest design with 116 eligible pregnant Afghan women, who were selected from health centers in Mashhad, Iran, in 2022. Participants were randomly assigned to an intervention (n=56) and control (n=56) group. Data were collected using a researcher-designed questionnaire based on HBM constructs and a standard nutritional behavior assessment for low-income populations. The intervention group received HBM-based nutrition education through four 45-60 minute sessions with 8-10 individuals in each group. Questionnaires were completed pre-intervention, immediately post-intervention, and one month later. Data were analyzed using Chi-square, Fisher’s exact, independent t-test, Mann-Whitney, and repeated measures ANOVA/Friedman’s tests in SPSS.Results: The intervention group showed a significant improvement in the total HBM score and its constructs immediately and one-month post-intervention compared to both baseline and the control group (P&lt;0.001). A significant increase was also observed in the nutritional behavior score of the intervention group at both follow-ups compared to the control group (P&lt;0.001).Conclusion: Nutrition education based on the HBM effectively improved the nutritional behaviors of pregnant Afghan immigrant women, providing a suitable and cost-effective method to enhance their nutritional status.]]></abstract>

				<abstract><![CDATA[Infertility is a major health problem and has a significant negative impact on people, society and the economy. Therefore, the study of fertility trend is one of the main interests of health researchers and policy makers. The aim of this study was to evaluate the interest in searching for infertility related contents in Persian language over the internet. Our model forecasted an increase in search for terms related to infertility from September 2023 to November 2027 by 50.2%. Given the recent national reports on the fertility rate, we showed that the provinces with the highest rate of infertility had a higher interest in searching for terms related to infertility and the provinces with the lowest rate of infertility had a lower interest in searching. In addition, provinces with high internet access showed lower interest in searching for fertility-related contents, while provinces with lower internet access had higher rates of fertility-related searches. Consequently, regional health care providers can offer more fertility-related contents online for the provinces with high infertility rate as they are more likely to seek for online fertility related contents. Moreover, increasing the internet users in these regions can facilitate access to fertility-related topics for more infertile couples.]]></abstract>

				<abstract><![CDATA[In recent years, infertility has been considered as a medical and social problem, so couples have sought medical help to overcome childlessness. However, the involvement of a third party in the creation of child is apparently very problematic in    most countries (1). Getting pregnant is not necessarily the end of this problem, and treatment through assisted reproductive technologies (ARTs), itself, is a very difficult process from an emotional and physical point of view (2). Iran is the only Muslim country where there is no legal or religious obstacle to use embryo donation (Giving Life and Hope) for an infertile couple.]]></abstract>

				<abstract><![CDATA[Background &amp; aim: About 1 in 100 pregnancies are ectopic pregnancies (EPs), which most commonly occur in the fallopian tube. Most EPs rupture during the first trimester. An objective assessment is required to ensure the diagnosis is not missed or delayed, especially in atypical cases and in resource-limited settings. A strong suspicion of EP should warrant careful ultrasound examination, as some cases are atypical.
Case report: We present an unruptured EP at 20 weeks of gestation in a 21-year-old primigravid woman presenting with right lower quadrant pain, managed with a total salpingectomy. The diagnosis was challenging. Despite having two ultrasound reports of an intrauterine pregnancy, the diagnosis of an EP was likely amidst right lower quadrant pain, no palpable uterus, an ultrasound report of probable EP, and failed cervical ripening. Intra-operative findings confirmed a right ampullary pregnancy with the contralateral tube absent. She was counseled on future infertility resulting from the total salpingectomy and provided education on alternatives, including in vitro fertilization.
Conclusion: Early diagnosis requires careful clinical judgement, especially when the presentation is atypical, and can prevent complications and salpingectomy. Patients should be educated on the role of first-trimester ultrasound scans in determining the location of pregnancy.]]></abstract>
