Abstract
Aim The aim of this study was to compare attitude of the last-year nursing and medical students studying at Iran University of Medical Sciences, Tehran, Iran about spiritual careBackground The spirituality is a complex and multidimensional concepts including cognitive, behavioral and experimental aspects. For promoting spiritual care we have to consider the physical, mental, emotional and spiritual aspects of the human. The studies showed that many patients believe that spirituality plays an important role in their life they believe there is a positive relationship between their recovery and religious and spiritual aspects. Many patients expect health care personnel consider these factorsMethod A descriptive comparative design was used to conduct the study. “Spiritual care perspective scale” (SCPS) was completed by 110 nursing and 220 medical students. Data were analysed by SPSS.Findings Based on the findings, 56% of nursing students and 51.8% of medical students have positive attitude on the spiritual care of patients. There was no statistically significant difference between attitudes of the two groups of students. Nursing students had more favorable attitude about existing a superior force or transcendental existence influencing spiritual health. Medical students had more favorable attitudes about considering spiritual care as part of the caring performance.Conclusion Paying more attention to the spirituality and spiritual care in educational programs for those who provide health services seems to be necessary for educational planning authorities. It is required to improve culturally in the field of principles of beliefs and religion and their education among the young and educated people. It is necessary to improve the culture of religious believes through education among students.

Abstract
Aim. This study evaluated the effects of prenatal substance abuse, predominantly Methamphetamine (MA) , on obstetric complications and neonatal health in an Iranian tertiary referral center.
Background. Methamphetamine abuse during pregnancy is a critical public health concern with significant implications for maternal and neonatal outcomes.
Method. A retrospective cohort study was conducted in 2021 at Shahid Akbar Abadi Hospital, Tehran. Three hundred and twenty two pregnant women were divided into a substance-using case group (n=98) and a non-using control group (n=224). Maternal and neonatal data were extracted from medical records and analyzed using statistical methods.
Findings. The case group was significantly older with lower education; MA was the predominant substance (75.5 percent). Major obstetric complications were significantly higher in the case group, including premature rupture of membranes (32.3 percent), gestational hypertension (20.4 percent), and preeclampsia (9.2 percent). Neonates in the case group experienced significantly higher rates of respiratory distress syndrome (49.0 percent), intrauterine growth restriction, and NICU admission (71.4 percent). Notably, head circumference was significantly reduced in the case group (P<0.001) despite comparable birth weights to controls, suggesting selective neurotoxic effects on brain development rather than global growth restriction.
Conclusion. Prenatal MA exposure is a significant predictor of hypertensive disorders and neonatal neurodevelopmental risk characterized by selective brain growth restriction. Given the substantial neonatal morbidity, comprehensive multidisciplinary care and universal screening for substance use are essential for optimizing outcomes in this vulnerable population.
