Read More Introduction and Objective: Perception is the most important predictor of behavior andthere is a strong relation and correlation between behavior and believes. Thus, to improveself‑care behaviors of patients, it is required to fully understand their perceptions aboutbehavior. This paper aimed to assess the prediction power of health promotion modelof systolic blood pressure (SBP) as the result of self‑care behavior in rural hypertensive.Methods: This cross‑sectional study has been carried out through random multistagesampling on 671 rural patients under the coverage of health center of Ardebil city in2013. Data were collected through reliable and valid questionnaire based on the healthpromotion model in eight sectors. For data analysis, Pearson correlation statisticaltests, multivariate linear regression, ANOVA and independent t‑test were used and forconfirmatory factor analysis, SPSS 18 and AMOS 18 (SPSS Inc., Chicago, IL, USA) wereused. Results: The results showed significant negative correlation between self‑efficacy,perceived benefits, situational influences, affects related to behavior and commitment toaction structures with SBP and showed a positive significant correlation between perceivedbarriers and SBP. Furthermore, age and body mass had direct significant relation with SBP.The age of patients showed inverse significant correlation with self‑efficacy, perceivedbenefits, affects related to behavior, interpersonal influences and commitment and showeda direct significant correlation with perceived barriers, means that by increase of age,the perceived barriers also increased. The structures of health promotion model havein overall the prediction power of 71.4% of SBP changes. Conclusion: The diet perceptions of patients, the same as healthpromotion model, has good predictive power of SBP, especially the structuresof perceived benefits and self‑efficacy have inverse meaningful relation withsystole blood pressure and predicted a higher percentage of this variable.

Read More Introduction: Metabolic syndrome is a collection of metabolic disorders, which can increase themortality rates from 20% to 80%. One of strategies to control the disease is the attention to thedietary habits. Compliance with proper diet is one of the major challenges in the managementof this syndrome. Due to this fact, that the patient is responsible for the adjustment of thedaily diet, it is important to identify the factors affecting the adoption of nutritional self-care.Besides, self-efficacy is considered as an important pre-requisite for this behavior because itacts as an independent part of the basic skills. This study was carried out with the purpose ofdetermining the predictive role of perceived self-efficacy on macronutrients intake in womenwith metabolic syndrome. Materials and Methods: In this descriptive study with correlationalnature in 2012, there were 329 patients with the metabolic syndrome. The patients were coveredby Isfahan oil industry medical centers and selected by a systematic method. In order to gatherinformation on perceived self-efficacy, the questionnaires constructed by the researchers wereused and the validity and reliability had been confirmed by the calculation of content validityindexand content validity ratio values and the indices of internal consistency and stability of thetool. The 24-h dietary recall questionnaire was also used for 3 days in order to investigate thenutritional behavior. The obtained data from the dietary recall questionnaire were analyzed bythe N4 nutritional software. In this study, AMOS software version 16 was used for the structuralmodel fitting by using the generalized least squares method besides the SPSS statisticalsoftware version 16. Results: These averages obtained from the results: 2512.37 kcal energyintake, 70.95 g protein, 420 g carbohydrates and 61.61 g of fat per day. The mean of perceivedself-efficacy score was 47.89. The Pearson correlation coefficient was indicated a significantinverse relationship between the perceived self-efficacy and intake of macronutrients in themetabolic syndrome. The most direct effect of the coefficient of perceived self-efficacy wasobserved on fat and carbohydrate intake (P < 0.05 and β = −0.592) and (P < 0.05 and β =−0.395). Conclusions: The amount of energy,carbohydrate, fat and protein were more thanthe recommended dietary allowances levelsand the amount of self-efficacy was moderate.The present study showed that perceivedself-efficacy provided a useful framework tounderstand and predict adherence to dietaryself-care behaviors in patients with metabolicsyndrome.
