Sleep disturbances, a common compliance of the elders with heart failure(HF) reduce quality of life. But it isn’t noticed to simple, and low-cost interventions as exercise for sleep quality. The objective of this study is “Effects of Aerobic and Resistance Exercise on sleep quality in the elderlies with HF”.

This study is a randomized, clinical trial design.60 male elderlies suffering from HF type 2 and 3were selected using convenience sampling and randomly assigned into intervention and control groups. Pitzberg’s sleep quality questionnaire as a tool for examining the sleep quality was used for data gathering. The aerobic and resistance exercise program were performed for 3 months. The sleep quality questionnaire was filled both in pre- and post-intervention, and the results were compared between the groups.
FINDINGS: The aerobic and resistance exercise had promoted scores of sleep duration(0/23±0/77), sleep efficiency (0/73±1.01), subjective sleep quality (0/6±0/93), and daytime function (0/06±1/14)(p<0/05). But the exercise Program doesn’t affect on sleep latency, sleep disturbances, and use of sleep medications.

Improving the sleep quality,and components of sleep outcomes with the aerobic and resistance exercise promote daytime function in the elderlies with HF.

Considering the importance and incidence of hematologic malignancies and emphasis on chronic lymphoproliferative disorders, the aim of this study was to evaluate the epidemiology and clinicopathology of these hematologic malignancies. In this descriptive cross-sectional study, the information of the patients referred to Ramsar Imam Sajjad Hospital Oncology Clinic with final diagnosis of chronic lymphoproliferative was studied in 2009-2014, . To determine the type of chronic lymphoproliferative, Bone marrow aspiration , biopsy and flowcytometry were performed. Data were analyzed usin SPSS 20. The main complaints of 134 patients was: lymphadenopathy(41.8%), fever and infection (17%), and lethargy and weakness (3.7%). Most patients with chronic lymphoproliferative disorder had Hodgkin's lymphoma (41%), non-Hodgkin lymphoma (35%), Chronic lymphocytic leukemia (22.4) and Hairy cell leukemia (1.5%). Considering the difference in incidence of lymphoproliferative disorders in terms of age, sex, geographical area, and type of malignancy, and considering the valuable role of nurses in educational programs in the three levels of prevention, treatment and rehabilitation, and with regard to the frequency of this disease in Mazandaran, these results can help nurses and other people of the treatment team to familiar with the risk factors of the disease in educational programs to promote people's awareness about preventive strategies and appropriate measures in suspected cases
