 The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic has negatively influenced several aspects of medical education (ME).

 We aimed to assess the perception of emergency medicine (EM) residents of COVID-19 impacts on the quality of ME and their wellness.

 This descriptive study was conducted in Tehran, Iran. A questionnaire consisting of 33 questions (5 on hospital experience, 5 on clinical experience, 12 on education, and 11 on wellness) and 1 open-ended question were designed based on the elements found in the existing literature. Face and content validity were determined by an expert panel. The baseline and demographic data were recorded, and the viewpoints of EM residents about different items in the questionnaire (ME and wellness) were evaluated.

 The mean age of residents was 36.4 ± 7.3 years, and 64.8% and 71.8% of the participants were female and married, respectively. Most residents (81.7%) had a previous history of COVID-19 infection (mainly mild and outpatient). We observed that 90.1% of the residents had concerns about transmitting the virus to their families. Most residents agreed on the negative impacts of COVID-19 on the EM residency program and routine clinical care in hospitals. COVID-19 led to a decrease in the diversity of other diseases and bedside learning opportunities. They added that virtual learning and online programs were comfortable and flexible despite some unpleasant outcomes. EM residents experienced anxiety and stress due to the change in physical and social activities and sleep habits during the COVID-19 pandemic.

 EM residents declared that despite the positive attitudes developed after the pandemic, COVID-19 had non-negligible and negative effects on ME. They were also exposed to greater anxiety and worriedness during the mentioned period.

To explore how ophthalmologist productivity, wellness, and musculoskeletal(MSK) symptoms are affected by heads‑up display (HUD) use.

A digital survey was emailed to the United States ophthalmologists. Questions covered topics including MSK health, surgical output, work hours, wellness hours, and factors related to HUD use.

One hundred and forty‑four ophthalmologists responded, and 99 completed all eligible questions. HUDs were utilized by 33 respondents, 29 of whom submitted complete surveys. HUD users worked 353 more hours annually (P = 0.01) and performed 673 more cases(P = 0.07) than nonusers. MSK symptom presence (P = 0.79), severity (P = 0.80), and frequency (P = 0.86) were independent of use. Over half (n = 16/29) of users identified symptomatic improvement attributable to the device, mostly in the cervical and lumbar regions. Mean job stress was moderate‑severe for both users and nonusers (P = 0.10), and there was no significant difference in wellness hours (P = 0.44). Retina specialists(P = 0.02) and males(P = 0.03) were more likely to have operated with the technology. Nearly half of heads‑up surgeons(n = 12/29) had obtained new equipment to target MSK symptoms, versus 1.4% of nonusers (n = 1/70; P = 0.0009). Most of those who operated with HUDs would recommend them to others(69.0%, n = 20/29), but 44.8% (n = 13/29) indicated ergonomic challenges. Primary concerns included awkward viewing angles, setup difficulties, and a lack of access.

HUD surgeons reported greater work output versus nonusers without significant compromises in wellness or MSK health. User feedback suggests that the technology may lessen neck and low back pains, but barriers including cost and system inconveniences may impede adoption.

The main element of quality of life is wellness, defined as the quality of life-related to health. Therefore, health does not only include estimating the amount and severity of the disease but also includes having good conditions and suitable quality of life. Achieving a satisfying and successful life will not be possible without paying attention to the issue of burnout in married life and trying to fix or reduce it. In this regard, it seems that the components of positive psychology, such as psychological capital, psychological stability, and wellness, as well as the relationship of these variables with married life, identifying this relationship and how to exploit it, have an important effect on the quality of life of couples. Therefore, this research was conducted to structurally model wellness based on psychological capital and psychological stability with the mediation of marital burnout.

The research method was analytical and structural equation modeling. The statistical population of this research included the students at Tehran Azad University, center branch in the academic year 2020–2021, and the sampling method was available. To select the sample size in modeling research, 15 people are needed for each obvious variable, and based on the 16 obvious variables, at least 240 people were needed. However, due to the dropout and the possibility of not completing all the questions of the questionnaires by the participants and predicting the lack of access to students due to the restrictions of the coronavirus, 540 questionnaires were distributed, of which 517 questionnaires were completely completed and could be analyzed. The inclusion criteria included students of Tehran Azad University over 18 years of age, having a marriage history of more than two years, subjects not suffering from a specific physical disease or psychological disorder, and not undergoing psychological treatment or special medication. The exclusion criterion was non–cooperation in completing the questionnaires. To collect data, the Five Factor Wellness Inventory (Myers & Sweeney, 2005), the Mental Toughness Questionnaire (Clough et al., 2002), the Psychological Capital Questionnaire (Luthans et al., 2007), and the Marital Burnout Scale (Pines, 1996) were used. This research used descriptive statistics (mean and standard deviation). Also, the Pearson correlation coefficient and the structural equation modeling were used. Data were analyzed using SPSS version 24 and AMOS software version 24. The significance level of all tests was considered 0.05.

Examining the coefficients of the direct path between different paths showed that psychological capital with marital burnout (p<0.001, β=–0.45), psychological capital with wellness (p=0.001, β=0.14), marital burnout with wellness (p<0.001, β=–0.27), psychological stability with marital burnout (p<0.001, β=–0.58) and psychological stability with wellness (p<0.001, β=0.51), had significant direct relationships. Also, the indirect effect of psychological capital on wellness with the mediating role of marital burnout (p=0.001, β=0.23) and the indirect effect of psychological stability on wellness with the mediating role of marital burnout (p=0.001, β=0.29) was significant. The goodness of fit indices supported the good fit of the model with the collected data (χ2/df=2.834, GFI=0.956, NFI=0.913, CFI=0.932, AGFI=0.902, RMSEA=0.078).

Based on the research results, a person's reactions to his environment and his partner and his evaluation of these relationships can affect the success and understanding of emotions related to marital relationships. As a result, marital burnout is considered a bridge between personality traits such as psychological capital and psychological stability with people's health, and its changes affect the relationship between personality traits and wellness.

Physical changes in high‑risk pregnancy (HRP) can lead to changes in mood and social relationships and negative effects on women’s well‑being. Individuals in different sociocultural contexts have different perceptions of well‑being. Yet, there is limited information about perceptions of well‑being in HRP. This study aimed to explore the Iranian women’s experiences of well‑being in HRP.

This qualitative study was conducted in 2019–2020 through directed content analysis based on the conceptual framework of well‑being in HRP. Participants were 26 women with HRP purposively recruited from public and private healthcare settings in Mashhad, Iran. Face‑to‑face semistructured interviews were held for data collection until data saturation. Data were analyzed through directed content analysis proposed by Elo and kyngäs (2008) and were managed using the MAXQDA (v. 10) program.

Well‑being in HRP had seven attributes in the five main dimensions of physical, mental‑emotional, social, marital, and spiritual well‑being. The seven attributes of well‑being in HRP were controlled physical conditions, controlled mood, emotions, and affections, perceived threat, self‑efficacy, and competence for multiple role performance, maintained social relationships, meaning seeking and relationship with the Creator, and positive marital relationships.

The present study provide an in‑depth understanding about well‑being in the Iranian women with HRP. It is a complex and multidimensional concept with physical, mental‑emotional, social, marital, and spiritual dimensions. Comprehensive multicomponent interventions are needed to promote well‑being among women with HRP and designed the guidelines to provide woman‑centered care.

The objective of this study was to better understand veterinary medical students’ sleep hygiene and identify the extent to which sleep hygiene behaviors may result in consequences (either positive or negative) for students. SAMPLE: A total of 187 doctor of veterinary medicine (DVM) program students at a large College of Veterinary Medicine in the United States.

The Epworth Sleep Scale and Daytime Sleepiness Scale were administered to 393 students enrolled in the DVM program.

About 55.1% of students reported <7 h of sleep per night, 28.9% reported having trouble sleeping, and 50.3% reported feeling sleepy all day. With respect to sleep quality, 5.3% described it as excellent, 52.4% as good, 34.2% as fair, and 8.0% as poor.

A significant percentage of veterinary medical students exhibit poor sleep hygiene habits that may be detrimental to both their health and academic endeavors.
