Pain is one of the most common symptoms experienced by patients undergoing coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery. Adequate pain management is critical to the well-being and overall recovery of these patients. This study aimed to evaluate the effect of preoperative in-person pain education on the pain severity experienced by patients undergoing CABG surgery in Rajaie Cardiovascular, Medical and Research Center in Tehran in 2022. In this quasi-experimental study, 72 patients undergoing coronary artery bypass surgery were selected and randomly divided into intervention (n=36) and control (n=36) groups.

Cardiac Rehabilitation (CR) is a medically supervised preventative cardiovascular program that involves a multi-disciplinary approach including physician-prescribed exercises, cardiac risk factor modification (education, counseling, and behavioral intervention), psycho-social assessment, outcomes assessment, and individual treatment plans [1,2]. 

Maintenance of neuroendocrine-immune homeostasis is tightly regulated by the active involvement of neural, endocrine and immune mediators. As age progresses, this bidirectional regulation losses its robustness due to the influence of several factors especially, gonadal hormones. Among the hormones, estrogen has gained significant attention due to its diverse effects as a potent modulator on the cellular and systemic level which influences both physiological and psychological functions.

The case study describes a rare and maybe fatal consequence of coronary stent infection (CSI), with an emphasis on the rise in occurrence over the last decade [1]. In order to enhance patient outcomes, the authors stress the need for early recognition and proper medical and surgical management. Coronary artery disease (CAD) is a serious global health concern, with an estimated 126 million people worldwide suffering from it. In addition, CAD caused millions of fatalities in 2017 [2].

Renal rehabilitation is a process to conduct treatments for the patients suffering from kidney disease and support to help them for their smooth achievement of social rehabilitation. Patients with dialysis-dependent kidney failure carry some additional burden of co-morbidity, such as, diabetes mellitus, hypertension, cardiovascular disease, infections, and many other. Approximately 10% of the world population is affected by chronic kidney disease and the incidence of dialysis is quite high.
