Abstract
Background. Cardiovascular disease is one of the most common causes of morbidity and mortality around the world. The number of people with cardiovascular disease is increasing. This review article discusses the role of Vitamin D and Vitamin D deficiency complications in cardiovascular system.
Methods. This review article was conducted by searching out electronic databases as Google scholar, Elsevier, PupMed, PMC, and Springer to find articles published between 2007 and 2015. The keywords searched out were: “Cardiovascular disease AND Vit D”, “Vit D AND Hypertension”, “Vit D AND Heart”, “Vit D AND Atherosclerosis”, and “Vit D deficiency”.
Findings. The response of Vitamin D receptors in all tissues including cardiovascular system (in presence of sufficient amount of Vitamin D) can prevent from uncontrolled growth and proliferation of cells in cardiomyocytes and smooth muscle of vessels wall. This is done by specific gene control through 1/25 Dihydroxyvitamin D (active form of Vitamin D). These genes control proliferation and differentiation of cells resulting in prevention of cardiovascular tissue hypertrophy and vessel thickness. Studies revealed that Vitamin D deficiency can cause inadvertent complications in cardiovascular system but it isn’t completely clear that administration of vitamin D can be beneficial in treatment of cardiovascular disease.
Conclusion. It is essential that adequate levels of Vitamin D is provided and replaced in the body before complications happen.

Abstract
Aim. This review examines
cardiovascular diseases as the most common disease of the elderly population,
and discusses about causes and methods of prevention, mitigation and treatment.
Background. Nowadays, with
increased level of health and life expectancy, the phenomenon of elderly and
increase in chronic diseases is a main issue. In modern societies, aging and diseases of this
period of life create a high cost for health care system.
Methods. This review was
conducted by searching out databases such as Google Scholar, Elsevier, PubMed,
PMC, and Springer for the time period of 2008 to 2016.
Findings. In addition to the
impact of aging on the body organs, especially the cardiovascular system, many factors including biological factors,
lifestyle, risk factors for heart disease, underlying disease, psychosocial
factors and personality factors, may influence the acuity of cardiovascular
diseases. During aging, many irreversible changes occurs in all body systems
including cardiovascular system. These changes cause hardness, thickening and
narrowing of the arteries. With the narrowing of the heart arteries and
increased blood pressure, the heart needs to work harder to pump the blood,
resulting in left ventricular hypertrophy. Impaired cell growth and
proliferation of fibrous tissue occurs as a result of the problem in production
of impulse and electrical conductivity of the heart. Increase in volume of the
left ventricle and blood vessel narrowing lead to ischemia of the heart. Early
heart disease with progression to irreversible heart failure results in
disability, exercise intolerance, and taking multiple medications in elderly,
and ultimately, death may occur. By understanding the mechanisms of aging and
cardiovascular disorders and modifying influential factors, the process of
development of cardiovascular disease can be slowed down and the complications
can be prevented.
Conclusion. Aging may lead to
irreversible cardiovascular disease with the ultimate result of chronic heart
failure. Compliance with lifestyle modification may prevent early occurrence of
this phenomenon and some of its complications such as disability and death.

Abstract
Abstract
Aim. This research aimed to identify and analyze the factors affecting resilience in nurses working in Intensive Care Units (ICUs) in Iran.
Background. Resilience is defined as the ability of individuals to resist, adapt, and recover from shocks and stresses while maintaining their functions. This concept is influenced by individual characteristics such as hope, optimism, and coping strategies, as well as social and environmental factors like social support, community cohesion, and effective governance, which play a key role in shaping resilience.
Methodology. In this review study, the keywords resilience, nurses, and intensive care unit, along with their English equivalents, were used. The Persian databases utilized included SID, MagIran, IranMedex, and the database of scientific journals of medical universities in the country. International databases included PubMed, Scopus, and Web of Science, and the Google Scholar search engine was also used. Ultimately, 20 articles were evaluated in the study.
Findings. Resilience in ICU nurses is a vital construction influenced by various factors. To improve nurses' resilience, interventions should be comprehensive, targeting both individual and organizational factors.
Conclusion. Regular assessment of nurses' resilience levels and monitoring the effectiveness of interventions through continuous qualitative and quantitative research are essential to ensure that strategies adapt to the changing needs of this critical group of healthcare personnel. This approach will not only improve the mental health of nurses but also directly lead to an enhancement in the quality of healthcare and the sustainability of the nursing workforce in the future.
