Abstract
Background: Regarding the widespread prevalence of chronic diseases, nurses need to understand the choices, priorities, and abilities of patients in reality, their communication, and the social context in order to play their professional role and responsibility. This review study was conducted with two purposes: determining the effect of partnership-care-model (PCM) on the outcomes of chronic diseases, and describing and assessing the quality of methodology of published papers in the field.
Methods: The systematic review was conducted from inception to the year 2019. A systematic search was conducted using PRISMA guidelines to retrieve all national and international PCM studies. To assess the quality of the methodology of studies, four instruments were used, including JADAD, Consort, New Castle-Ottawa, and Cochrane.
Results: In the initial search, 11509 papers were retrieved, which according to the PRISMA guidelines, 23 relevant papers remained. The results of the reviewed papers indicated the effectiveness of the PCM. Describing and assessing the quality of the methodology of published papers of PCM was at an acceptable level. The final papers were classified and reviewed according to the authors, year, sampling characteristics, data collection methods, and final PCM conclusion.
Conclusion: According to the review of the studies and their effectiveness in the different outcomes, also, the acceptable quality of the methodology of published papers, it can be concluded that the PCM is an effective, context-based, simple, efficient, and reliable model and has the ability to be used in promoting and improving the various dimensions of chronic diseases.

Abstract
Background: Urolithiasis is a common, sever, painful, and costly disease with a high probability of relapse. This study was performed to compare the effect of Polycitra-K containing potassium citrate and Bicitra containing sodium citrate in the treatment of kidney stones in children who referred to Hazrat Masoumeh hospital in Qom.
Methods: This double-blind randomized clinical trial study was carried out on 176 patients aged between 5 and 18 years old with kidney stones, hypocitraturia, and negative urine who referred to Hazrat Masoumeh hospital in Qom (Iran). Patients were divided into 2 groups of treatment (a dose of 1 mL/kg or 1-1.5 mg/ kg Polycitra-K) and control (Bicitra in the same dose). The results of kidney ureter bladder X ray (KUB ) was followed and the 2 groups were compared. The chi-square test or the Fisher exact test was used to analyze qualitative values in the treated groups.
Results: Regarding bladder stones, there was a significant difference between the 2 treatment groups (p = 0.025), in which16 patients (18.2%) in the Polycitrat-K group and 29 patients (33%) in the Bicitra group had bladder stones. With respect to stone passage, 58 patients (65.9%) in the Polycitra-K group and 36 patients (40.9%) in the Bicitra group were recorded.
Conclusion: Oral Polycitrat-K is an effective preferential supplement against kidney stones in children due to urine alkalization, but the results of our study showed that both Polycitrat-K and Bicitra drugs have similar effects as therapeutic agents.
