The purpose of this study was to determine the level of patients' satisfaction with the services provided in one of the selected military hospitals. Methods: This descriptive study was conducted on 260 patients discharged from one of the naval hospitals, which was selected and conducted by available sampling method in 2018. The data collection tool was a 48-question patient satisfaction questionnaire whose validity and reliability were confirmed in previous studies. Descriptive statistics (frequency, percentage) were used for data analysis, and independent t-tests, one-way analysis of variance, and Pearson were used for the relationship between satisfaction and demographic characteristics. Results: The level of satisfaction in medical and non-medical departments was at a high level. Facility services and reception services had the lowest level of satisfaction. The variables of age, gender, marital status, and number of hospitalizations had no significant statistical relationship with satisfaction, while the number of referrals and reason for referral had a significant statistical relationship with satisfaction.   Conclusion: Considering the low satisfaction of patients with health and hygiene services in medical departments and admission in non-medical departments, it is necessary to investigate the management method of these departments to improve satisfaction by searching for the causes of dissatisfaction based on the cause. http://jmarmed.ir/article-1-441-en.pdf patient patient satisfaction hospital military per Marine Medicine Research Center Journal of Marine Medicine 9 2676-6051 2023-12 5 3 136 144 article Ali Taheri taherienator@gmail.com 1 Sara Kazemi Khanaposhtani kazemi@cmu.ac.ir 2 Rouholah Zare zare@cmu.ac.ir 3 Associate Professor, Faculty of Marine Sciences, Chabahar Maritime University, Chabahar, Iran CMU CMU Background and Aim: To fight food pathogenic microorganisms, it is necessary to search for new antimicrobial compounds. Marine sponges are potential sources of new antimicrobial agents due to secondary metabolites. This study investigated the antibacterial effect of methanolic extract of H. implexa sea sponge collected from Chabahar. Methods: This study investigated at two concentrations of 3 and 5 mg/ml of the methanolic extract against two foodstuffs bacteria of Escherichia coli and Pseudomonas aeruginosa by disc diffusion sensitivity test, minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC), and minimum bactericidal concentration (MBC). Statistical analysis was done with One-Way Analysis of Variance and comparison of means with Tukey's test. Results: According to the results, the highest effects were obtained on concentrations of 5 mg/ml with 11.03±1.7 and 12.033±0.702 mm diameters of non-growth halos for Escherichia coli and Pseudomonas aeruginosa, respectively, and showed significant difference by Gentamycin (p<0.05). The minimum inhibitory concentration of H. impelxa sponge organic extract in Escherichia coli and Pseudomonas aeruginosa was observed at 1 and 3 mg/ml concentration, respectively. Minimum bactericidal concentration observed in Escherichia coli at 3 mg/ml concentration and no effect on Pseudomonas aeruginosa strain observed.   Conclusion:  Based on the results, H. impelxa sea sponge extract has a good antibacterial effect on pathogenic bacteria of Escherichia coli and Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Therefore, the extract of this sponge can be further studied for use in food packaging. http://jmarmed.ir/article-1-438-en.pdf Marine Sponge Minimum Inhibitory Concentration Minimum Bactericidal Concentration Antibiotic Haliclona implexa per Marine Medicine Research Center Journal of Marine Medicine 9 2676-6051 2023-12 5 3 145 154 article Farshad Heidari-Beni heidarifarshad70@yahoo.com 1 Mohammad Nobakht marinemedicine@gmail.com 2 Amir Vahedian-Azimi amirvahedian63@gmail.com 3 Seyed Shahram Mirzamani ss.mirzamani@gmail.com 4 Seyed Tayeb Moradian t.moradyan@yahoo.com 5 Abbas Ebadi Ebadi1347@bmsu.ac.ir 6 Morteza Kameli Morandini mortezakameli38@gmail.com 7 Iran University of Medical Sciences Baqiyatallah University of Medical Sciences Trauma Research Centre, Nursing Faculty, Baqiyatallah University of Medical Sciences, Tehran, Iran Science and Research Branch, Islamic Azad University Baqiyatallah University of Medical Sciences Baqiyatallah University of Medical Sciences Baqiyatallah University of Medical Sciences Background and Aim: Marine medicine is one of the medical science fields that deals with the health and safety of people related to the sea but marine medicine syllabus for education to students is not specified yet.

In the present study, the pattern and per capita of fish consumption in the urban households of Chabahar Port in 2019 was investigated. Methods: In this study, according to the population of Chabahar city, 383 questionnaires were prepared and completed in person by the respondents. A standard formula was used to estimate the average amount of fish consumption. 52.22% of the interviewed people were women and 47.78% were women. The highest age category of the interviewed people belonged to the age group of 36-45 years. In terms of the number of people in the household and the type of job, families with 3 or 4 children and government jobs had the highest frequency, respectively. Results: The priority of meat consumption among Chabahari households was chicken, red meat and fish respectively. More than 34% of households consumed fish more than 6 times a month. Wild fish (including barracuda, narrow-barred Spanish mackerel and black pomfret) was the main priority for purchasing fish in more than 94% of Chabahar households. The results also showed that "freshness" and "usefulness" of fish were respectively the main priority and criteria for choosing fish among the respondents.   Conclusion:  In the present study, the per capita of fish consumption in urban households of Chabahar was equal to 27.13 kg/person/year, which indicates the good status of fish consumption as a valuable protein source in Chabahar city. http://jmarmed.ir/article-1-422-en.pdf Fish Per Capita Consumption Purchasing Pattern Chabahar Port per Marine Medicine Research Center Journal of Marine Medicine 9 2676-6051 2023-12 5 3 180 195 article Ahmad Amerion ad_amer_heli@yahoo.com 1 Taha Nasiri dr.tahanasiri@gmail.com 2 Mehdi Rai 3 Mohammad Mesgarpour 4 Morteza Rahimi rahimimorteza321@gmail.com 5 sepah sepah Baqiyatullah University of Medical Sciences, Tehran, Iran Background and Aim: Accountability as one of the main goals of the health system is a very important issue for policy makers and managers. Methods: The study is descriptive-analytical and cross-sectional and was carried out in the spring and summer of 1401. To collect and measure the data required for the research, two questionnaires were used to measure public trust and responsiveness, and the research questionnaires were distributed among 610 clients using the stratified sampling method, so the number of samples in Chalus Hospital is 250 people and There are 360 ​​people in Sari Velayat hospital. Results: The findings of regression models and structural equation models indicate that there is a positive statistical relationship between the dimensions of communication, dignity, independence, confidentiality of information, the right to choose and physical facilities with all dimensions of public trust and the average total score of public trust. P-value>0.05). The dimension of quick action has a positive statistical relationship with other dimensions of public trust, except for the two dimensions of public trust (macropolitics and communication and information) and the dimension of social support, except for the dimension of macropolitics, which do not have a significant relationship with each other. The results of the regression model showed that all response variables except quick action (p=0.195), the right to choose (p=0.469) and social support (p=0.253) had a statistically significant relationship with public trust (p<0.05). Conclusion: Responsiveness as a qualitative criterion has an effective relationship with public trust and a clear picture of the performance of hospitals, and the responsiveness of Sari Velayat Hospital has been better than Imam Reza Chalous Hospital. http://jmarmed.ir/article-1-437-en.pdf Public Trust Responsiveness Recipients of Health Services per Marine Medicine Research Center Journal of Marine Medicine 9 2676-6051 2023-12 5 3 196 203 article Sarina Jafari gonja.jafari@yahoo.com 1 Mohammadhosein Movassagh drmhmg@gmail.com 2 Faculty of Veterinary Medicine, Shabestar Branch, Islamic Azad University, Shabestar, Iran Department of Food Hygiene and Quality Control, Faculty of Veterinary Medicine, Shabestar Branch, Islamic Azad University, Shabestar, Iran Background and Aim: Various natural and human activities, non-biodegradability and toxicity of heavy metals even in low concentrations are among causative agents of aquatic ecosystem pollution, which can cause serious threat to the environment and humans. The aim of study was to investigate the level of lead and cadmium in the edible tissue (muscle and skin) of caspian kutum and rainbow trout in Gonbad Kavus, Iran and also to compare the accumulation levels with the European Union standard. Methods: To investigate the concentration of lead and cadmium, 25 samples of caspian kutum and 25 samples of rainbow trout were randomly collected from fish supply centers in Gonbad Kavus, from April to June 2022. The levels of lead and cadmium in the samples were measured using the graphite furnace atomic absorption spectrometry technique. Results: The concentration of lead and cadmium in Caspian white fish was 587±22.30 and 120.89±6.07 µg/kg and in rainbow trout 323.72±9.89 and 62.37±3.98 µg/kg, respectively. The levels of lead and cadmium in caspian kutum were significantly higher than those of rainbow trout (P<0.05). The amount of lead and cadmium in caspian kutum samples exceeded the EU standard limit, while the levels exceeded the EU standard limit in 30% and 36% of rainbow trout samples, respectively.   Conclusion: The levels of lead and cadmium heavy metals pollution were high in rainbow trout compared to caspian kutum in Gonbad Kavus, Iran. It is suggested that in order to find the causes of the pollution and provide suitable solutions, the amount of these heavy metals must be periodically measured in rainbow trout compared to caspian kutum in Gonbad Kavus, Iran.  The influx of human and industrial sewage from Iran and other countries in the Caspian Sea and the lowering of the water level in the Caspian Sea increase the contamination of seafood with heavy metals. Therefore, the pollution of water resources in areas such as Gorgan Bay with sewage should be prevented. http://jmarmed.ir/article-1-430-en.pdf Rainbow Trout Caspian white fish Lead Cadmium
