Currently, in the field of medical sciences, research evaluation places greater emphasis on assessing social impact. To achieve this goal, the present research aims to identify the components of the social impact model for medical research application. The current research conducted a systematic review and analysis of previous studies. The research examined 8 Persian sources and 29 English sources related to the social impact of medical research application. This analysis was carried out using a meta-synthesis approach. The research time frame spans from 1990 to June 2022 for English and Persian sources up to the time of conducting the research. From the available sources, 37 were selected and analyzed. The Cohen's Kappa expert agreement coefficient was used to validate the results. Based on these findings, the researcher proceeded to present a conceptual framework that includes key concepts and categories from each of the reviewed sources. As a result of the analysis of the conducted studies, 147 codes were identified across 24 concepts, 12 categories, and 6 themes. These themes encompass various aspects of knowledge, including knowledge governance, knowledge production and exchange, knowledge dissemination and transfer, knowledge mobilization, popularization of knowledge, and knowledge utilization. The conceptual model of the social impact of medical research application aims to reveal the processes of knowledge governance and knowledge production and exchange. It begins with the interactive model, emphasizing relational capital and fostering closer collaboration between researchers and policy makers. This collaborative approach extends to industry and government investment in research. The overall goal is to strengthen research systems, ensuring they meet society’s needs by facilitating knowledge transfer and mobilization. Two key strategies are employed: the structure of formal and informal exchange networks, and the utilization of intermediaries.

Nursing knowledge is built in the framework of philosophical thoughts.Nowadays, paying attention to philosophy has become important in the production and application of knowledge.The aim of present study was to do a metsynthesis systematic review on philosophical thoughts in Iranian nursing sciences.

The present study was a metsynthesis systematic review that deals with the comprehensive combination of previously published articles in the field of studies and philosophical thoughts in Iranian nursing sciences. The Search was done in English and Persian language, in the databases of Web of Science, PubMed, Scopus, SID, Mag Iran and Google Scholar &….  The Search was done with the keywords of Philosophy, Philosophizing, and Philosophical thoughts, Nursing, Metasynthesis and Iran.  The Search was done without considering the time frame.  In this study the research team founded 459 articles, and finally 12 articles were included in the study.

Philosophical studies and thoughts in Iranian nursing sciences were related to the necessity of changing the Iranian nursing thought frameworks, based on Islamic- Iranian- Shieh philosophy and providing the nursing care models based on these philosophical thoughts. Also Philosophical studies and thoughts focused on the role of postmodernismand Gilles Deleuze's philosophy on global nursing. The Iranian nursing philosophers emphasized on the necessity of using philosophy in nursing education and criticized western nursing philosophies including liberalism.

Nursing policy makers should encourage that nurses have a deep look at philosophical thoughts.More importantly, in order to reduce the challenges in providing education, research, management and nursing care based on Western philosophies, it is suggested to develop theories based on Islamic- Iran- Shia philosophy.

By increasing the rate of unethical behaviors in the workplace, addressing Islamic work ethic can play an important role in effective management of organizations and reducing corruption. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to explain the consequences of Islamic work ethic in reducing corruption in government organizations.

This study was conducted through a qualitative approach using Sandlowski and Barroso’s seven-step meta-synthesis method (2007). The corpus of the study included all Persian and English studies published on consequences of Islamic occupational ethics between 2001 and 2021. In this regard, keywords related to the purpose of the study were searched and the obtained papers and documents were examined using purposive sampling according to the acceptance criteria. Finally, 36 papers meeting the inclusion criteria were analyzed using the three-step coding method (open, axial, selective) by MAXQDA 20 (2020) software. The reliability of coding was calculated using kappa agreement coefficient in SPSS software with a value of 0.83.

Ethical Considerations: 

In order to organize this research, while observing the authenticity of the texts, honesty and fidelity have been observed.

Based on the results of data analysis, 145 open codes were identified for the data which were classified into 45 subcategories and four main categories of: 1- Individual; 2- Organizational; 3- Occupational; 4- Social Consequences.

The results revealed that the existence of Islamic occupational ethics in the organization can lead to increased ethical growth of managers and employees and organizational effectiveness and it will have Impressive internal and external consequences for the organization.

This study aimed to design a model for developing health system partnerships by using electronic word-of-mouth communication. This issue has recently attracted the attention of researchers and managers of the country’s public and private sectors.

In this qualitative study, the meta-composite method and Delphi technique were employed. The data collection tools included library studies and review of articles related to the research background. First, relevant information and findings were extracted from reliable national and international scientific databases using the meta-combination method, and then the opinions of the expert panel were recorded using a questionnaire. After two stages of opinion polling, the initial findings of refinement and unnecessary items were merged or deleted. Finally, the components and indicators affecting the development of health system partnerships were identified and categorized through word-of-mouth communication.

Out of 66 primary codes extracted by metacombination method, 36 final indicators were identified by the experts using Delphi method. The identified indicators were then divided into three categories and nine components including Creation Factors with “structural and contextual, economic and financial, communication, and interactive” components, Diffusion Factors with “organizational and institutional, legal and contractual, awareness, and trust building” components, as well as Impact Factors with “legal and regulatory, technical and specialized, and acceptability and effectiveness” components.

A new model and perspective was presented for developing health system partnerships through electronic word-of-mouth communication, so that the enormous economic, social, and cultural potentials of the public, private, and charitable sectors may have been exploited for developing health and treatment through using new marketing tools and modern technologies.

The health of employees and the work environment is important for any organization, but some organizational phenomena challenge this issue. One of the emerging organizational phenomena is presenteeism, which causes an employee to decide to be at work despite being sick (physical or mental) and feeling unwell. The aim of the current research is to provide a model of employee presenteeism based on factors affecting this behavioral phenomenon.

In this study, by Meta-synthesis method, all the researches of reliable databases that were related to the research topic from 1991 to 2022 were systematically examined and finally, following the entry and exit criteria, 78 articles were identified and analyzed.

The results showed that the most important factors affecting employee attendance can be designed in the form of a three-dimensional model with 13 core categories and 60 components. In this model, three main dimensions include behavioral, structural and contextual dimensions. 13 core categories also include organizational characteristics and procedures, job characteristics, human resources management of the organization, organizational culture, health status of the individual, employee's attitude and perception towards the consequences of absenteeism or presenteeism, Organizational communications and interactions, Individual characteristics, Individual personality, Job and organizational attitude, Cultural and social factors, Economic factors of society and Legislation and infrastructure.

The results of the synthesis and analysis of 78 articles in this research showed that presenteeism is a complex and multidimensional phenomenon that is caused by various factors, and the correct management of this behavior in the organization depends on careful attention to the pattern identified in this research.

In sanction situation, moving from traditional economy to knowledge based economy and the development of businesses has been emphasized. One of the approaches that facilitates this development is entrepreneurial orientation. The aim of this study is to providing e model for developing knowledge-based businesses in the context of sanctions with entrepreneurial orientation, using meta-synthesis and systematic grounded theory strategy. The approach of present study is qualitative and the paradigm is interpretive. In research analysis portfolio, using document screening processes, 33 studied were coded and summarized in the form of 76 initial coded and 11 categories. Finally these categories are classified into casual conditions, main phenomena, strategies, contextual conditions, intervening conditions and consequences. In quality control phase, the reliability of these codes is obtained based on kappa coefficient of 0.758 and then the codes are classified using Shannon entropy method. Finally after 7 main steps of research, the results and suggestions are presented.

There is a huge emphasis on the integrity and incorruptibility of organizations to prevent corrupt behaviors. Hence, this paper aimed to make a better understanding of integrity frameworks and components in international publications.

To achieve that aim, this paper was done through a Meta-synthesis analysis. For this purpose, after searching the databases in a time limit of 2000- 2020 (November), studies were selected that directly examined the subject of organizational integrity and entered the analysis phase. The selected studies were entered into MAXQDA11 software for coding.Research

 After the coding process, 98 codes were identified. From the referral point of view, among the identified codes are clear codes of behaviors, Informing about the results of the organization's performance, training, and empowerment of personnel codes were the most important in terms of the number of referrals in research terms respectively. In the next step, codes were divided into 15 Categories.Innovation or Value of the Article: Achieving a comprehensive model with the Meta Synthesis approach is one of the innovations of this study, which could be a pattern for other research.

The behavior and performance of the leaders of start-up businesses can be the most important factor driving the business towards success and performance improvement. One of the behaviors that organizational leaders adopt to advance their goals in the organization is ambivalence. The current research is based on the deviation of the current situation from the desired situation, following the design of a dual leadership model in new knowledge-based businesses. The strategy of the current research was to solve the met combination problem with a qualitative approach and content analysis tactics. The current research has used the seven main steps mentioned by Sandlovski and Barroso (2007) to carry out the research steps. The data collection tool of the current research is a checklist (in the section of library studies) and a questionnaire (in the section of analyzes related to the prioritization of codes and Shannon's entropy). The research data analysis method was done by coding and summarizing data in MaxQda qualitative data analysis software. In the research analysis portfolio, using the screening process, 34 studies have been summarized in the form of 40 primary codes, 11 concepts and 4 categories, which is the highest abstraction level of the codes. In the document quality control phase, the reliability value of these codes based on the Kappa coefficient is 0.723 was obtained and then the codes were classified using the Shannon entropy method. Finally, after going through the seven main steps of the research model, the results and suggestions of the research were presented. The results of the present study show that the antecedents or factors that affect ambidextrous leadership behaviors include the capabilities of start-up businesses, entrepreneurial orientation, innovation tasks, and leader characteristics. The capabilities of business in the present research include growth tendency, networking ability and market diversity.

Public-private partnerships (PPPs) are among the interesting topics for scholars, policymakers and managers in various fields, including health. The purpose of this study is to design a model for the development of PPP in the health system of Iran.

This is a qualitative study using a Meta-analysis approach. The data were collected by reviewing articles related to the literature which were searched in valid national and international databases. Then, using the opinions of a panel of experts, the qualitative findings extracted from the articles were synthesized to finally discover new concepts.

Out of 217 articles extracted, 27 final articles were selected and 66 initial codes were extracted. According to experts, the final results include 3 main dimensions and 12 Components: public sector with Components (organizational and institutional, Administrative and social, legal and regulatory, structural and contextual), private sector with Components (economic and financial, Banking and inflation, technical and specialized, Technology and equipment, legal and contractual) and the charity sector with Components (acceptability and effectiveness, awareness and confidence building, communication and interaction).

The present study provides a new model and perspective on how to develop PPP in the health system of Iran. Based on this model, the managers of public, private and charity sectors can improve the health system of the country by using the huge economic, social and cultural capacities of society.

Given the different definitions of spiritual health in different cultures and the little agreement among experts on the definition of this concept, it is necessary to identify the components of spiritual health according to the Islamic-Iranian approach. This study aimed to identify the components of spiritual health based on the Islamic-Iranian approach according to research conducted in Iran.

This research was a basic study based on the purpose and meta-synthesis in data collection, which was performed based on the seven-step Sandlovsky and Barroso meta-synthesis method. The statistical population of the study included the collection of research published in the scientific communities of Iran, ie articles and dissertations during the 15 last years (from 2006 to 2020), which were selected based on the purposive sampling method on the basis of inclusion and exclusion criteria. The research tool included a check form. Data were collected in Iranian databases such as elmnet, Magiran, Irandac, SID, and other information sources. The analysis process was based on open coding, axial coding, and creating categories in maxquda software. In order to measure the reliability of the coding, the kappa index was used, which was equal to 0.74. The validity of the data was also confirmed by internal validity or expert opinion.

Findings showed that the concept of spiritual health is a comprehensive multidimensional structure that has cognitive, emotional-emotive, and consequential components in behavior and action.

As a result, it can be said that relying on the structure of spiritual health as a multidimensional factor can pave the way for making effective interventions in dealing with various mental disorders and social harms.

For this purpose, qualitative studies in the field of cosmetic surgery were reviewed and analyzed, in which 14 main concepts and 4 general categories were extracted. It shows that cosmetic surgery in women is influenced by individual perceptions of beauty, family background and friends and socio-cultural and economic structures and leads to negative and positive consequences after surgery.

In Iranian Islamic culture, one of the most important duties of mothers is to take care of their children. Caring for a child with a mental or physical disability is fraught with challenges. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to review the lived experiences of mothers with children with physical and mental disabilities.

This study was performed by a qualitative approach and document analysis using meta-synthesis method to examine 13 articles related to the seven-step method of Sandlowski and Barros. The stages of this research included preparing the research question, reviewing the texts systematically, searching and selecting appropriate texts, extracting textual information, analyzing and combining qualitative findings, quality control, and presenting the findings.

Dimensions and categories included individual dimensions (personal education and knowledge, emotions, spirituality, defense mechanisms, personal life) and social dimensions (social stigmas, social supports).

The findings of the present study revealed that mothers with disabled children experience many painful experiences and psychosocial concerns about caring for their disabled child. These findings highlight the need for specialized support for mothers during the first years of a disabled child's birth and beyond, and encourage readers and professionals to make each of these categories a potential therapeutic goal, and to strengthen mothers' strengths in resilience, and in this way prevent the damage they face.
