Abstract:

Aims and Objective: To study and compare coagulation profile in normal pregnancy, pregnant women at high risk, non-pregnant women and pregnancy outcome. Method: This comparative prospective study was done in tertiary healthy care centre of north India for over period of one year. Result: Total 230 cases were taken, out of which 222 antenatal cases were unbooked cases with no antenatal visits along with 8 non-pregnant healthy women. Cases were further divided into three groups of non-pregnant women, normal pregnant women and pregnant women at high risk. All groups were compared for derangement of coagulation profile and pregnancy outcome in terms of adversity. In normal pregnant women (Group-1), there were 2 cases (94.4%) of deranged coagulation with isolated thrombocytopenia. In pregnant women at high risk (Group-2), 31 cases (16.6%) were having deranged coagulation out of which maximum cases were of eclampsia- preeclampsia spectrum (eclampsia and HELLP syndrome) followed by anaemia, placental abruption and placenta previa. In terms of adverse pregnancy outcome, maximum mortality was again in ecalmpsia and HELLP syndrome cases. In adverse perinatal outcome along with eclampsia and HELLP syndrome, preterm labour and FGR was a significant factor. Conclusion: Hypertensive disorders of pregnancy remain the main cause of deranged coagulation and adverse outcome in high risk pregnancy group along with anaemia and liver disease.

Abstract:

Pregnancy is a purely physiological process, but there are physical and psychological changes that the pregnant woman tells in her pregnancy. On the physical level and external appearance, the pregnant woman has many changes such as weight gain, abdominal and chest hypertrophy, and changes in the skin. On the psychological level, the pregnant woman suffers some disorders and psychological crises such as anxiety from pregnancy, childbirth and depression. The current study studies two important variables related to pregnancy (body image) and (birth anxiety) in pregnant women. And examine the relationship between them and their relationship to some variables (age, number of pregnancies and birth, month of pregnancy, and sex of the fetus). Two instruments were designed to detect body image and obstetric anxiety, and were applied to a sample of pregnant women (126) The results showed that the more negative the image of the body in pregnant women, the higher the levels of birth anxiety, and the age of the pregnant woman contributed to predicting the body image, while both the age of the pregnant woman and the number of birth times in the prediction of concern birth.

Abstract:

Currently, there is evidence that hepcidin is the main regulator of iron metabolism in human and pathogenesis key factor for anemia of inflammation. However, the role of hepcidin in multifactorial pathogenesis of anemia in pregnancy is not clear. We presented the results of the laboratory examinations of 78 pregnant women sera in hepcidin, ferritin, erythropoietin during pregnancy, and 116 sera of pregnant women with iron deficiency anemia (IDA) and anemia of mixed origin. The obtained data indicate a statistically significant decrease in the mean hepcidin concentration in pregnants versus non pregnant women. Mean hepcidin level in pregnant women with IDA was decreased, compared with anemia of mixed origin pregnants (p<0.0001). Evaluation of hepcidin concentrations may be useful laboratory test for differential diagnostic of anemia during pregnancy and for determination of optimal therapeutic option between oral iron, parenteral iron or using erythropoiesis -stimulating agents (ESAs) in combination with iron products.

Abstract:

Abstract Background: Rotational thrombelastometry (ROTEM) is a real-time clotting test that provides insight into clotting factors, the fibrinolytic system and platelet function. We obtained the longitudinal values on ROTEM in normal pregnancy and in puerperium. Material and Methods: After ethics committee approval and subject informed consent, citrated blood was sampled from healthy pregnants four times during pregnancy and one time postpartum. As controls we used nonpregnant women undergoing voluntary blood donation. Extem and Intem tests and basic coagulation test were carried out. Results: We included 112 women in our study, 55 non-pregnant women (controls) and 57 healthy pregnants with 5 samplings. The values of maximum clot firmness (MCF - in EXTEM and INTEM) were significantly higher up to 34th-36th week of pregnancy than those in non-pregnant subjects. MCF in 6th-7th week after delivery was significantly higher in both tests. Clotting time (CT) in pregnant women was significantly shorter (EXTEM) compared to non-pregnant subjects. We also found a very strong correlation between MCF and platelet count in all gestational weeks.' Conclusions: Rotation thromboelastometry clearly demonstrates the hypercoagulability in pregnancy and can reflect the higher risk of venous thromboembolism in both pregnancy and puerperium. Strong correlation between MCF and platelet count can suggest role of platelets in hypercoagulability in pregnant women. This study provides a better knowledge about physiological changes in ROTEM measurement during pregnancy and postpartum.

Abstract:

Pregnancy is a natural and physiological process that every woman experiences. Pregnant women are a high risk group for health problems. Stress is a health problem that often occurs in pregnant women. The goals of pregnancy exercise include reducing stress and preparing physically and psychologically for pregnant women. The purpose of the activity is to increase knowledge and empower pregnant women to care for their health independently. The method used is pregnancy exercise lectures and exercises. Participants in pregnancy exercise were 20 trimester III pregnant women. Implementing activities consisted of lecturers, health center midwives and students. The results of the activity were obtained through interviews which explained that participants learned about the benefits of pregnancy exercise, pregnancy exercise can make the body comfortable, and participants are interested in pregnancy exercise. The results of this activity can be concluded that the class of pregnant women must be held at the Puskesmas with activities such as pregnancy exercise.

Abstract:

Abstract: Introduction: Monitoring the health status of populations is essential for good health policy decisions. This is particularly true in maternal and child health where targeted and timely interventions may have long-term consequences. Aim: Our objective was to describe changes in the health status of pregnant women at the national and county level during the period of 1997–2012. Method: Data were extracted from the mandatory annual reports of district nurses responsible for primary maternal care. Information on the smoking status of expecting mothers, special care during pregnancy, pregnant women entering into maternity care after 28 weeks of pregnancy, borne woman without district nurse care were analysed using Microsoft Excel and STATA 13.0. Results: The mean prevalence of smoking was 13.8% among pregnant women during the investigation period. The ratio of smoking pregnant women was higher (p<0.01) in Borsod-Abaúj-Zemplén, Nógrád, Heves, Szabolcs-Szatmár-Bereg, and Somogy counties. The ratio of pregnants requiring special care was higher (p<0.01) than the national average in Somogy, Szabolcs-Szatmár-Bereg, Borsod-Abaúj-Zemplén and Nógrád counties. More, than 1% of the pregnant women entered into care only after the 28th week of the pregnancy. Women who were registered by district nurses and gave birth less than 1% did not participate in pregnant nursing. Conclusion: National data hide significant regional disparities within the country which should be amended by targeted interventions, taking into account the large regional inequalities in the country.

ENGLISH ABSTRACT: Introduction: Heavy alcohol consumption during pregnancy is teratogenic.49-51 A woman’s nutritional requirements increase during pregnancy.4 The dangers of heavy drinking in the presence of malnutrition may put the fetus at a further disadvantage to normal development and life. Objectives: To determine the nutritional status of pregnant women in relation to alcohol consumption during pregnancy, and pregnancy outcome. To relate the combined effect of maternal alcohol consumption and nutritional status to pregnancy outcome. Study design: Prospective, longitudinal and cohort. Study population: Pregnant women attending Hanover Park MOU for pre-natal care. They were classified as subjects (heavy drinkers) or controls (light drinkers or abstainers), and 15 pairs were matched according to race, parity and gestational age at the onset of their participation in the study. Methodology: A skilled FARR worker determined the alcohol consumption of the individuals through a validated questionnaire, whilst the investigator gathered the study data blinded to the participants’ alcohol consumption status. The investigator conducted three interviews with the pregnant individuals. Anthropometrical, clinical and biochemical investigations were done and questionnaires completed to determine dietary intake, sociodemographics, health and eating habits. An experienced FARR paediatrician examined the newborns, assessing their anthropometric status, health and the presence of any alcohol-related signs. Results: The nutritional status of the matched subjects and controls did not differ significantly in terms of dietary intake, anthropometric or clinical assessment. There were significant differences between the 2 groups’ serum vitamin A values (p<0.0097). Significant associations were found between the mother and newborn data; specifically energy intake and gestational age at birth (p<0.0083), MUAC and birth weight (p<0.04), and weight gain and weight for age (p<0.0056). The participants’ energy intake also had a significant correlation with their weight gain during pregnancy (r=0.0389, p<0.01). The prevalence of FAS in the total population was 6.67%; a finding that confirms previously reported data in nearby Wellington, Western Cape.49 Conclusion: Some mothers’ good nutritional status did not protect their offspring against alcohol’s teratogenic effects. Nutritional status did have a few statistical significant effects on pregnancy. However, the investigator is of the opinion that the few significant findings were not enough to accept or reject the hypothesis; therefore, making the results inconclusive.
AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Inleiding: Swaar alkoholgebruik tydens swangerskap is teratogenies.49-51 Vroue se voedingsbehoeftes verhoog met swangerskap.4 Die gevare van swaar alkoholgebruik in die teenwoordigheid van wanvoeding mag die fetus verhoed om normal te ontwikkel en groei. Doelwitte: Om die voedingstatus van swanger vroue te bepaal in verhouding met alkoholgebruik tydens swangerskap, en die swangerskapsuitkoms. Asook om die gekombineerde effek van die moeder se voedingstatus en alkoholgebruik op haar swangerskapsuitkoms te bepaal. Studie-ontwerp: Prospektief, longitudinaal en kohort. Studiepopulasie: Swanger vroue wat Hanover Park MOU besoek vir voorgeboorte sorg. Hulle is of as toetslinge (swaar drinkers) of as kontroles (ligte drinkers of geheelonthouers) geklassifiseer, en 15 pare is gepaar na aanleiding van ras, pariteit en gestasionele ouderdom by die aanvang van deelname aan die studie. Metodologie: ‘n Ervare SAVN lid het die individue se alkoholgebruik bepaal deur middel van ‘n gevalideerde vraelys. Die navorser was geblind vir die individue se alkoholgebruik. Die navorser het drie onderhoude gevoer met elke individu. Antropometriese, kliniese en biochemiese ondersoeke is gedoen. Vraelyste is voltooi om dieetinname, gesondheid, sosiodemografiese en eetgewoonte- inligting te versamel. ‘n Ervare SAVN pediater het alle pasgeborenes ondersoek om hulle antropometriese status, gesondheid en die teenwoordigheid van enige alkohol-verwante tekens te bepaal. Resultate: Die voedingstatus van die gepaarde toets-en kontrolegroepe het nie beduidend verskil in terme van dieetinname, antropometriese of kliniese evaluering nie. Daar was ‘n beduidende verskil tussen die 2 groepe se serum vitamien A vlakke (p<0.0097). Beduidende assosiasies is gevind tussen die moeder en pasgebore se data; naamlike tussen energie-inname en gestasionele ouderdom by geboorte (p<0.0083), bo-armomtrek en geboortegewig (p<0.0056), en gewigstoename tydens swangerskap en die baba se gewig vir ouderdom (p<0.0056). Die deelnemers se energie-inname het ook ‘n beduidende positiewe korrelasie met hul gewigstoename tydens swangerskap gehad (r=0.0389, p<0.01). Die prevalensie van FAS in die totale populasie was 6.67%; wat ook gevind is onlangs in die nabygeleë Wellington, Weskaap.49 Gevolgtrekking: Sommige moeders se goeie voedingstatus het nie hul kinders teen alkohol se teratogeniese effekte beskerm nie. Voedingstatus se effek op swangerskapsuitkoms was statisties beduidend in ‘n paar gevalle. Tog is die navorser van mening dat daar nie genoeg beduidende bewyse is om die nulhipotese te aanvaar of verwerp nie; dus is die gevolgtrekking onopgelos.

Abstract:

Pregnancy outcomes have improved tremendously in developed countries. Notwithstanding, it is still a huge challenge in developing countries, especially Sub-Saharan Africa. In 2015 in Nigeria, about 145 women died daily from pregnancy-related causes. Similarly, nearly 2,300 children under 5 years were lost in the same year. Nigeria consistently underperformed in some of the critical pregnancy indicators such as maternal and neonatal mortality, second worst only to India in the world. Studies on poor pregnancy outcomes are scarce in Nigeria. The purpose of this quantitative, retrospective cross-sectional study was to use local evidence to ascertain the risk factors that predict poor pregnancy outcomes for women of childbearing age (15-49 years old) in Nigeria. The theoretical framework for this study was the social cognitive theory. Secondary data from 400 pregnant women from Island Maternity Hospital, Nigeria, was used for this study. Five central research questions were analyzed through univariate and multiple logistic regressions. The results indicated moderate to strong statistically significant associations between outcomes of last pregnancy, gestational age at delivery, mode of delivery, and the timing of antenatal care booking with maternal mortality, neonatal mortality, and low birth weight, even after controlling for other covariates. Findings from this study may foster positive social change by further enhancing the understanding of poor pregnancy outcomes, especially in Nigeria. It will help public health practitioners, policymakers, community leaders and other stakeholders to design strategies and interventions that will take advantage of cultural and religious norms and educational status of women of childbearing age in promoting reproductive health in Nigeria.

Abstract:

Objective: To describe the worldwide experience of Bacillus anthracis infection reported in pregnant and postpartum women. Data Sources: Studies were identified through MEDLINE, WEB OF SCIENCE, EMBASE, and GLOBAL HEALTH databases from inception until April 2012. The keywords [(“anthrax” or “anthracis”) and (“pregna*” or “matern*” or “post partum” or “postpartum” or “puerperal” or “lact*” or “breastfed*” or “fetal” or “fetus” or “neonate” or “newborn” or “abort*” or “uterus”)] were used. In addition, all references from selected articles were reviewed, hand searches were conducted and relevant authors were contacted. Methods of Study Selection: The inclusion criteria were: 1) published articles referring to women diagnosed with an anthrax infection during pregnancy or within six months postpartum, 2) any article type reporting patient-specific data, 3) articles in any language, and 4) non-duplicate cases. Non-English articles were professionally translated. Duplicate reports, unpublished reports and review articles depicting previously identified cases were excluded. Tabulation, Integration and Results: Two authors independently reviewed articles for inclusion. The primary search of the 4 databases yielded 800 articles and the secondary cross-reference search revealed 146 articles. Seven articles from these searches met inclusion criteria. By contacting the lead author of the largest systematic review of inhalation anthrax to date, 6 additional articles, published before the databases’ inception, were identified that met inclusion criteria. In total, 19 cases of anthrax infection were found, 16 in pregnant women and 3 in postpartum women. Conclusions: Based on these case reports, anthrax infection in pregnant and postpartum women is associated with high rates of maternal and fetal death. Evidence of possible maternal-fetal transmission of B. anthracis was identified in early case reports. Transmission of B. anthracis through breast milk has not been reported. This review provides important insight to guide anthrax treatment and prophylaxis recommendations for pregnant and postpartum women.

Abstract:

There is a growing body of research aimed at understanding social support during pregnancy in South Africa. Pregnancy is constantly referred to as one of the challenging and stressful periods affecting women’s physical and psychological well-being. Various research studies on social support argue that social support is paramount at this stage. Research on social support indicates that having adequate and quality social support impacts on how pregnant women experience pregnancy. My interest in social support comes in the wake of absent fathers in South Africa and with the emerging trend of “new” fathers. Although there is a volume of research on social support, it tends to be realist. Using a social constructionist framework, I explore other ways of talking about social support in an attempt to expand the discourse around social support. I explore how pregnant women talk about social support during pregnancy from their intimate partners in the small rural municipality of Elundini, Eastern Cape, South Africa. Intimate partner support was limited to heterosexual partners regardless of their marital status. The sampling procedure followed a non-probability sampling method. Participants of the study were between 24 and 32 years old. Their gestational age ranged between five and eight months. Fourteen in-depth interviews using photo-elicitation were conducted with seven participants and were analysed using a social constructionist informed thematic analysis. The major theme that emerged from the analysis was partner involvement and absence during pregnancy. The analysis of results suggests that expectant father presence translates to social support. Participants constructed his presence as reassurance in the context of possible abandonment. Absence was constructed in different ways: participants constructed absence as unjust and unfair, absence and marriage, temporary absence in the form of cultural phenomenon of ukwaliswa/ukubukubazana, absence as normal but burdening to the pregnant women’s social network. Participants reported that social support from the expectant father affected pregnancy wantedness.

Full text

Abstract:

Increased levels of oestrogen and progesterone during pregnancy may lead to periodontal disease. The anaerobic Gram-negative bacteria called red complex (Porphyromonas gingivalis, Tannerella forsythensis and Treponema denticola) are frequently associated with periodontal disease. Periodontopathogens produce toxins and enzymes which can enter the bloodstream and cross the placenta to harm the foetus. The response of the mother&rsquo
s immune system to infection by these periodontopathogens, brings about the release of inflammatory mediators which may trigger preterm labour or result in low birth-weight infants. The purpose of this study was to examine the prevalence of red complex, using BANA and PCR in subginginval plaque samples from pregnant women. Subgingival plaque samples were obtained from pregnant women between the ages of 17 to 45 years attending a Mitchells Plain ante-natal clinic. Plaque samples were analyzed by the enzymatic BANA-test for detection of the presence of red complex and DNA was extracted and analyzed using 16 rDNA-Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR).

Seventy-nine percent of pregnant women showed gingival index scores of &ge
1 of which 74.24% harboured by at least one of the members of the red complex. P.gingivalis was the most prevalent of the three members of the red complex. Findings of this study confirmed a need for dental preventive measures in pregnant women and microbial monitoring of suspected periodontopathogenes. This could be achieved by joint cooperation between Maternity Obstetric Units (MOU), Dentistry and oral microbiology departments. The results of this study revealed that although PCR is more sensitive than BANA in detecting members of the red complex, BANA showed a better association with the indices used to diagnose periodontal disease.

Abstract:

Urinary tract infections (UTIs) are common in pregnant women and provide a substantial therapeutic challenge due to the high potential of serious effects for both the mother and the baby. Pregnancy affects the urinary system physiologically, anatomically, and functionally, which can lead to infections emerging from the urethra. Unlike the general population, all pregnant women should have their urine cultures examined for bacteriuria, and any cases of asymptomatic bacteriuria should be treated, as it is a major risk factor for pyelonephritis in this group. Both the mother and the fetus should be safe from the antibiotic administered. To determine the prevalence of UTI in pregnancy in compare to non-pregnant woman in Wasit province to roll out the impact of pregnancy on the frequency of UTI. A case–control study between 2019 July and 2019 September was carried out on 30 pregnant women in compare to 30 matched non pregnant women were attending Al-Zahraa teaching hospital. A randomized (Every member of a population has the same probability of being picked for the sample, as do all possible samples of a given size) age, employment, present history, previous history, obstetric history, sex partner, frequency of sexual intercourse, and peeing frequency were all analyzed separately utilizing a plate form questioner. Urine samples, as well as a regular urine examination and urine culture, were obtained from the women who were being studied. Bacteriouria was shown to be prevalent in 13.3% of women, 16.7% of pregnant women, and 10% of non-pregnant women in this research. Asymptomatic bacteriuria in all women was 5/60 cases 8.3%. This indicates that about 16.7% of pregnant women are at risk of development of acute episode of UTI during pregnancy if they are not properly treated. In pregnant women, urinary tract infections (UTIs) are still a prevalent concern, particularly in the second trimester. During the prenatal period, urinalysis is necessary for all pregnant women. Early diagnosis and treatment of asymptomatic bacteriuria will be aided by the screening, preventing complications for both mother and child. The most prevalent risk factors for UTI during pregnancy were poor personal cleanliness, a history of UTI, diabetes mellitus, and anemia. As a result, the study suggests that pregnant women get health education on personal sanitary cleanliness, be advised not to overuse antibiotics, and undergo frequent comprehensive urine analysis.

Abstract:

Chapter 2 explores the foundations of working motherhood as women become pregnant and begin to negotiate professional and mothering roles as they disclose their pregnancies at work and prepare for maternity leave. We discuss three significant adjustments most women experience as they begin to integrate pregnancy and work. The first is a psychological adjustment that starts as a pregnant woman begins to envision her future identity as a working mother. The second adjustment is a physical one that stems from how a woman copes with her changing body in the workplace. The last adjustment is an interpersonal one and relates to how a pregnant woman manages interactions with her boss and her colleagues. We explore various ways women navigate these adjustments and how they set women up for positively integrating work and motherhood.

Abstract:

Pregnancy leads to extensive and complex physiological changes in the kidney and renal system. This chapter explores the various complications that can occur in the renal system of the pregnant woman, including acute kidney injury, chronic kidney disease, and urinary tract infection. The causes of acute kidney injury in pregnancy are as those in the non-pregnant patient, but additional pregnancy-related pathologies must be considered, including pre-eclampsia and HELLP syndrome. Microangiopathic haemolytic anaemias (haemolytic uraemic syndrome and thombotic thrombocytopenic purpura) are rare but can be triggered by pregnancy or the post-partum state. Failure of the renal system to adapt to pregnancy is hypothesized to lead to the increase in adverse maternal and fetal outcomes seen in women with chronic kidney disease. Asymptomatic bacteriuria affects 2–10% of pregnant women and is associated with increased risks of symptomatic infection, preterm birth, low birth weight, and perinatal mortality. Antibiotic treatment mitigates these risks.

Abstract:

This chapter addresses the intense surveillance placed upon American women during pregnancy. Given the dynamic connections between medical, media, and political attitudes toward pregnancy and a view that pregnant women are obligated to promote fetal life at all costs, it is little surprise that civil and criminal consequences abound for these women. Frequently, pregnant mothers’ personal or religious objections and rights are overruled, leading judges to order caesarean sections and other medical treatment, including keeping pregnant women on life support to keep their fetuses alive. Criminal prosecutions against pregnant women are increasing.

Abstract:

Uterine fibroid is the most encountered benign tumour in women of reproductive age. It causes spontaneous abortions, missed abortions, painful red degeneration or infarction of the fibroids, abnormal foetal presentation, obstructed labour, and an increased likelihood of premature deliveries, caesarean deliveries, postpartum haemorrhage in pregnancy, whereas, in the non-pregnant women it is associated an irregular menstrual cycle sometimes associated with heavy menstrual bleeding, infertility, constipation, urinary incontinence, and leiosarcoma transformation. Till date is pathophysiology and management both in the non-pregnant and pregnant woman have not been well described. In this chapter, we present contemporary evidence to help elucidate this enigma.

Abstract:

A parametric anthropometric model of a pregnant woman has been produced for use in crash protection research. The model is based on anthropometric measurements of pregnant women, with the initial model representing a 5th percentile woman in her 30th week of gestation. The model has been developed to be easily scaleable so women of different sizes can be modeled and adapted to simulate any stage of pregnancy. Previous research has simply added an enlarged abdomen to existing females models. However the model presented describes a comprehensive depiction of the altered pregnant form by incoporating the anthropometry of the entire body. This paper presents the pregnant occupant model for use in evaluation of safety systems and vehicle interiors. This work is the first step toward a computational pregnant occupant for crash protection research, capable of simulating dynamic impact response and predicting injury risk in automobile crashes.

Abstract:

This paper presents an optimization-based dynamic simulation for pregnant women pseudo standing, forward falling, and pulling tasks. Based on anatomy of pregnant women a digital pregnant woman model is developed. The model has 55 degrees of freedom (DOFs) including 6 global DOFs and 49 body DOFs. Recursive dynamic algorithm is used to formulate the equations of motion. Human motion can be formulated as a non-linear optimization problem. Control points of B-spline curves that represent joint angle profiles are design variables. The joint angles, angular velocities and angular accelerations, will be obtained from the control points. The summation of all joint actuator torque square acts as the objective function. Besides some common constraints, different constraints are adopted for standing, falling, and pulling, respectively. Three cases, non-pregnancy, 6-month, and 9-month pregnancy, are investigated. For the pulling task, 2N, 100N or 200N external load is applied as the pulling force. Determinant joints (hip, knee and ankle) are plotted to analyze the simulation results. The simulation results show the effects of pregnancy on human movement kinematics and dynamics. The average computational time for each case is close to 3.5 minutes in a Dell computer with 3.25 GB of RAM and 3.16 GHz.

Abstract:

Moderate and systematic physical activity during pregnancy is not only safe, but it also brings numerous health benefits, such as metabolic acceleration, lower risk of hypertension in preg-nancy, prevention of swelling due to water retention within the body, reduction of premature birth, it also shortens and facilitates the childbirth and lower the risk of postpartum compli-cations improves well-being and accelerates return to original physical condition after the child is born. Rather than regular exercises, however, it is a physical inactivity that brings risks. Some women are aware of this and they keep various physical activities during the pregnancy, on the other hand there exists a group of pregnant women who are afraid of doing exercises at all. This study attempts to define what are suitable activities during pregnancy, and find the reasons for pregnant women to perform and also not to perform physical activ-ities. Survey was carried out in a group of pregnant women, the information concerning their attitude towards physical activities have been obtained by a questionnaire method. Question-naires were anonymous and were submitted by 107 pregnant women. Results revealed that 63.6% of women spent their leisure time during pregnancy in an active way. Most of them reported that they are suficiently informed; they mainly used the Internet to seek information. Pregnant women typically perform their pastime physical activity at home, alone (usually with DVD) or outdoor – walking alone or with a dog, which is even more beneficial, since the dog gives a brisk pace of the walk. Concerning the frequency of physical activity, most women stated the frequency of 2 – 3 times a week. Women, who do not perform any physical activity at all, usually refer to lack of time and energy, frequent nausea, back aches and other health problems. Some women feel like doing an activity, but to perform it, they would need a stim-ulus and/or more information on suitable activities for pregnant women. Some women also pointed to lack of information concerning proper physical activities during pregnancy, hence they are afraid that choosing the wrong type or intensity of exercise they might injure either themselves or their unborn child.

Abstract:

ABSTRACT Background: Nausea and vomiting are common in pregnant women, and the condition may be a mild or severe disabling disease. Nausea and vomiting are common in the early stages of pregnancy, affecting 70-80% of pregnant mothers. In most women, vomiting begins between 4-7 weeks of pregnancy. Nausea and vomiting are usually mild and self-limiting, but some mothers have a deeper course and cause pregnancy vomiting. This study aimed to analyze the effectiveness of ginger extract consumption on reducing morning sickness in first trimester of pregnant women at Pratama Mariana Clinic Medan, North Sumatra. Subject and Method: This was a quasi experiment study with pretest-posttest control group design conducted in Pratama Mariana Clinic, Medan from July to August 2018. A sample of 15 pregnant women. The dependent variable was emesis gravidarum. The independent variable was extract of ginger. The data were collected by observation and analyzed by wilcoxon test. Result: The extract of ginger is effective to reduce nausea and vomiting in first trimester pregnancy women after ginger extract was given (Mean= 1.93; SD= 0.26) was higher than before (Mean= 1.20; SD= 0.41), and it was statistically significant (p <0.001).

Abstract:

The article discusses how the emotional state of pregnant women is influenced by their previous experience of pregnancy. The study relies on the following methods: ‘Test of Pregnant Woman’s Relations’ by I.V Dobryakova; ‘Self. Assessment of Emotional States’ by A. Wessman and D. Ricks; “Self. Estimate” by T. Dembo and S. Ya. Rubinshtein (modified by P. V. Yanshin); “Test of Meaningful Life Orientations” by D. Krambo and L. Makholikh (adapted by D. A. Leontyev). The study has shown that in the presence of complications and pathologies — in the form of a history of miscarriage — the emotional sphere of a woman will be characterized by emotional instability, increased anxiety and low self.esteem. Emotional instability is typical of pregnancy in general and it often is accompanied by dependence on others, distrustfulness, fatigue, vulnerability, impressionability combined with excitement, anxiety, and some fear.

Abstract:

"The article is the review of the available research papers on anxiety, depression, stress and signs of PTSD in pregnant women during the COVID-19 pandemic. Articles were searched in the databases of Scopus, Web of Science, EBSCO, APA using the keywords ""pregnancy"", ""COVID-19"", ""anxiety"","" depression"","" stress"","" PTSD"". For this article review we selected only those research studies that have comparatively large samples, with the most widely used measures: State and Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI), Generalized Anxiety Disorder (GAD-7), Edinburg Postpartum Depression Scale (EPDS), and Impact of a Traumatic Event Scale (IES-R). In these studies levels of anxiety, depression and PTSD are either compared to the existing cut-off scores for these disorders in the literature or in COVID-19 and pre-COVID cohorts of pregnant women. Some papers include not only women during pregnancy but also postpartum. Data here are presented only on pregnancy. The results show that 22% to 68% of pregnant women experience moderate to severe anxiety, and it is two to five times more than the prevalence of anxiety in the literature. The state anxiety has increased more compared to trait anxiety. 14.9%-34.2% of women report on clinically significant levels of depression, and it is twice higher than the pre-existing data. About 10.3% of pregnant population have PTSD signs which falls into a moderate range. The levels of anxiety, depression and PTSD are significantly higher in COVID-19 cohorts than in pre-COVID samples. The most predicting factor for anxiety, depression and PTSD is the pre-existing mental health disorder of anxiety or depression."

Abstract:

Pregnant women’s size, shape, and weight changes have significant effects on their walking stability. Traditionally, experiments are used to study the effects of subjects, but it is time consuming and expensive. This paper presents an optimization-based pregnant women walking simulation with one-stride formulation. The pregnant woman’s model with 55 degrees of freedom (DOFs) is used, including 6 global DOF’s and 49 human body DOF’s. The dynamic equations of motion are based on the recursive dynamics. Without the constraint of symmetry of the human body between two steps within one walking cycle, the study is based on bio-mechanical, human kinematic, and dynamic properties to perform the one-stride simulation, which represent the holonomic and non-holonomic constraints in walking simulation. This forms a nonlinear optimization problem. The summation of all joint actuator torques squared within one stride is the cost function. Nine determinant DOF’s are used to analyze the kinematics and three for dynamics. Three cases (non-pregnancy, 6 month, and 9 month pregnancy) are adopted for the test and investigation. The simulation results show that during the course of pregnancy, pregnant women’s bodies dynamic and kinematic properties change and thus affect their walking and stability.

Abstract:

ABSTRACT Background: Stunting is one of the global nutrition problems, which is recorded in the six global nutrition targets in 2025. Stunting is defined as a condition when a child’s body length or height based on age and sex is below -2 SD of the median standard of child growth by World Health Organization. The prevalence of stunting in newborns in the world is 3.8%. The causes of stunting are multifactorally occurring from the age of conception to the age of two. Factors that influence stunting of newborns during the prenatal period are maternal height, maternal weight gain, anemia, and infection during pregnancy. Anemia occurs in 37% of pregnant women. Maternal anemia causes disruption in fetal growth which increases the risk of stunting at birth. This study aimed to examine the Association between maternal anemia with stunting incidence among newborns in Surakarta, Central Java. Subjects and Method: This was a cross-sectional study conducted at Sibela Community Health Center, Surakarta, Central Java. Total of 184 third trimester pregnant women and 184 newborns were enrolled in this study. The dependent variable was stunting among newborns. The independent variable was anemia in pregnant women. The data were taken from medical records in the period February-March 2020. The data were analyzed using Chi-square. Results: The prevalence of stunting among newborns was 8.2%. Anemia among pregnant women were 31.0%. Pregnant women who had anemia increase the incidence of stunting among newborns (OR = 5,19; 95% CI = 1.69 to 15.99; p = 0.002). Conclusion: There is a relationship between anemia among pregnant women and the incidence of stunting among newborns. Keywords: anemia, pregnancy, stunting, newborn Correspondence: Safitri Tia Tampy.

Abstract:

The fibrinolytic response to venous occlusion was assessed in pregnant women with measurements of total and free t-PA, using specific ELISAs based on monoclonal antibodies.Total t-PA levels increased after venous occlusion with 11±8 ng/ml (mean ± SD) in healthy fertile non-pregnant women (n=6), with 0.8 ± 1.3 ng/ml in 2nd trim. (n=5) and with 3.8 ± 3.9 ng/ml in 3rd trim. (n=4) healthy pregnant women. The increase in free t-PA was 12 ± 11; 1.2 ± 0.9 and 0 ng/ml respectively. The difference in post- and pre-occlusion levels in 3rd trim, pregnant women with insulin dependent diabetes mellitus IDDM (n=4) was 3.2 ± 4.2 ng/ml, with intrauterine growth retardation (IUGR) (n=4) 2.6 ± 3.0 ng/ml and with preeclampsia (n=5) 3.2 ± 3.5 ng/ml for total t-PA and 0, 0 and 0 ng/ml for free t-PA.Fibrin fragment D-dimer levels in plasma measured with a specific ELISA were 130 ± 36 ng/ml in healthy fertile non-pregnant women (n=8). A significant increase was found in 4 out of 5 1st trim., 25 out of 25 2nd trim, and 21 out of 22 3rd trim, normal pregnant women. In these groups, plasma levels were 340 ± 160, 400 ± 170 and 440 ± 220 ng/ml respectively.Fibronectin levels, measured with a Laurell electroimmunoassay and expressed as percentage of pooled human plasma (=330 yg/ml) were 83 ± 26% in 2nd trim, patients (n=24) and 102 ± 35% in 3rd trim, patients (n=17). Normal fibronectin levels were found in 4 patients with IDDM and in 6 with IUGR, whereas in 6 out of 8 preeclamptic patients significantly increased levels were observed.These results confirm, with the use of a newly developed free t-PA assay, that the fibrinolytic response to venous occlusion is completely inhibited in the 3rd trimester of pregnancy. A reduced release of t-PA from the vessel wall during venous occlusion and/or an increased inhibition of released t-PA were observed. No difference was found in the fibrinolytic response between normal and complicated pregnancy. D-dimer levels are significantly elevated during pregnancy. Finally, the usefulness of fibronectin for the diagnosis of preeclampsia is confirmed.

Abstract:

Background. Untreated maternal mental health disorders can have devastating sequelae for the mother and child. For women who are currently or planning to become pregnant or are breastfeeding, a critical question is whether the benefits of treating psychiatric illness with pharmacologic interventions outweigh the harms for mother and child. Methods. We conducted a systematic review to assess the benefits and harms of pharmacologic interventions compared with placebo, no treatment, or other pharmacologic interventions for pregnant and postpartum women with mental health disorders. We searched four databases and other sources for evidence available from inception through June 5, 2020 and surveilled the literature through March 2, 2021; dually screened the results; and analyzed eligible studies. We included studies of pregnant, postpartum, or reproductive-age women with a new or preexisting diagnosis of a mental health disorder treated with pharmacotherapy; we excluded psychotherapy. Eligible comparators included women with the disorder but no pharmacotherapy or women who discontinued the pharmacotherapy before pregnancy. Results. A total of 164 studies (168 articles) met eligibility criteria. Brexanolone for depression onset in the third trimester or in the postpartum period probably improves depressive symptoms at 30 days (least square mean difference in the Hamilton Rating Scale for Depression, -2.6; p=0.02; N=209) when compared with placebo. Sertraline for postpartum depression may improve response (calculated relative risk [RR], 2.24; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.95 to 5.24; N=36), remission (calculated RR, 2.51; 95% CI, 0.94 to 6.70; N=36), and depressive symptoms (p-values ranging from 0.01 to 0.05) when compared with placebo. Discontinuing use of mood stabilizers during pregnancy may increase recurrence (adjusted hazard ratio [AHR], 2.2; 95% CI, 1.2 to 4.2; N=89) and reduce time to recurrence of mood disorders (2 vs. 28 weeks, AHR, 12.1; 95% CI, 1.6 to 91; N=26) for bipolar disorder when compared with continued use. Brexanolone for depression onset in the third trimester or in the postpartum period may increase the risk of sedation or somnolence, leading to dose interruption or reduction when compared with placebo (5% vs. 0%). More than 95 percent of studies reporting on harms were observational in design and unable to fully account for confounding. These studies suggested some associations between benzodiazepine exposure before conception and ectopic pregnancy; between specific antidepressants during pregnancy and adverse maternal outcomes such as postpartum hemorrhage, preeclampsia, and spontaneous abortion, and child outcomes such as respiratory issues, low Apgar scores, persistent pulmonary hypertension of the newborn, depression in children, and autism spectrum disorder; between quetiapine or olanzapine and gestational diabetes; and between benzodiazepine and neonatal intensive care admissions. Causality cannot be inferred from these studies. We found insufficient evidence on benefits and harms from comparative effectiveness studies, with one exception: one study suggested a higher risk of overall congenital anomalies (adjusted RR [ARR], 1.85; 95% CI, 1.23 to 2.78; N=2,608) and cardiac anomalies (ARR, 2.25; 95% CI, 1.17 to 4.34; N=2,608) for lithium compared with lamotrigine during first- trimester exposure. Conclusions. Few studies have been conducted in pregnant and postpartum women on the benefits of pharmacotherapy; many studies report on harms but are of low quality. The limited evidence available is consistent with some benefit, and some studies suggested increased adverse events. However, because these studies could not rule out underlying disease severity as the cause of the association, the causal link between the exposure and adverse events is unclear. Patients and clinicians need to make an informed, collaborative decision on treatment choices.
