Abstract:
Health of children and their mothers is a vital aspect of a society's longterm development. Unfortunately, around half of all mothers and over 10 million children die due to preventable causes. Data from a current National Family Health survey (NFHS) was utilized and compared with the previous data of the surveys conducted at national level. The maternal mortality ratio in India has decreased to 113 per 100,000 live births, according to a report released by the WHO. Only 51.6% women reported three or more ANC visits where anaemia is still found among 35.4% women. Although 88% of women delivered in a health facility whereas only 5 7.5 % mothers received postnatal care within two months. The Maternal Mortality Ratio (MMR) in Uttar Pradesh is remains high due to a lack of utilisation of available maternal and child health services, putting the health of mother and children at risk. Hence, to improve the health status, evidence-based policies with grass root level programme planning are required.

Abstract:
Secondo l'Organizzazione Mondiale della Sanità (OMS), ogni giorno, in tutto il mondo, circa 1.000 donne muoiono per cause legate alla gravidanza o al parto e, ogni anno, più di otto milioni di bambini nei paesi a basso e medio reddito muoiono prima di raggiungere i cinque anni di vita. L'OMS è stata chiara: la salute materno-infantile è un tema di enorme importanza sanitaria e richiede investimenti, progetti, energie e impegno, rappresentando una componente fondamentale della salute pubblica delle popolazioni umane. Migliorando l'approccio e l'accesso alle cure sanitarie, rendendo più disponibili assistenza qualificata, trattamenti farmacologici e la formazione degli operatori, ma anche semplici interventi preventivi durante la gravidanza, nel corso della gravidanza, del parto e dei primi anni di vita del bambino è possibile, infatti, prevenire le morti evitabili. A fronte della complessità dell’insieme dei temi e delle problematiche relative al percorso nascita e alla salute materno-infantile, ho ritenuto di suddividere in più fasi il mio progetto sviluppando diversi profili, come quello socio-economico, farmacologico, e clinico. Sono state utilizzate diverse metodologie statistiche a seconda dell’obiettivo dello studio. Le associazioni tra le diverse esposizioni della madre, prima e/o durante la gravidanza, e gli esiti neonatali selezionati, sono state valutate attraverso modelli di regressione logistica. In alcuni studi c’è stata la necessità di imputare i dati mancanti. Vista la natura di questi ultimi, arbitrary missing data pattern, è stato utilizzato il modello “fully conditional specification (FCS)”, ipotizzando l'esistenza di una distribuzione congiunta per le variabili mancanti. Per rendere le stime più robuste, a seguito della presenza di confondenti non misurati, è stato utilizzato l'approccio rule-out descritto da Schneeweiss. Per valutare il ruolo che gli eventi avversi neonatali alla nascita svolgono nel rapporto tra l’esposizione della madre durante la gravidanza e gli esiti neonatali in questione, ho utilizzato la “mediation analysis” descritta da VanderWeele e Vansteelandt. Infine, a seguito dell’utilizzo di dati osservazionali, le caratteristiche basali di esposti e non esposti potrebbero essere sbilanciate. Ho quindi utilizzato la tecnica del “propensity score startification” che permette di creare gruppi di pazienti con simile probabilità di ricevere il trattamento. Il propensity score è stato stimato sia attraverso il metodo classico della regressione logistica, sia utilizzando l’algoritmo “high-dimensionale propensity score” per valutare le centinaia di diagnosi, procedure, e prescrizioni più significative. Lo scopo della mia tesi è quello di identificare i possibili fattori per sviluppare e migliorare la salute materno-infantile da un aspetto socio-demograficho, farmacologico, e clinico. Ho strutturato la mia tesi in diverse sezioni. Procederò in prima istanza, dando una panoramica dei metodi utilizzati nei vari studi effettuati durante il mio dottorato, procedendo con una descrizione dettagliata di questi ultimi.
According to the World Health Organization (WHO), every day, worldwide, about 1,000 women die due to causes related to pregnancy or childbirth and, every year, more than eight million children in low and middle income countries die before reaching five years of age. The WHO was clear: maternal and child health is a topic of enormous medical importance and requires investments, projects, energy and commitment; it is an essential part of the public health of human populations. Improving the approach and access to health care, making qualified assistance, drug treatment and training of the operators more available, but also elementary preventive interventions during pregnancy, childbirth and the early years of a child's life, can prevent avoidable deaths and reduce several neonatal outcomes. Given the complexity of all the issues and problems concerning births and maternal and child health, through this thesis I propose a path divided into several stages which covers various topics starting from the socio-economic profile of the mother, moving to the pharmacological profile of pregnancy, up to the prevention of stillbirths. Several statistical methods were implemented to answer the different questions depending on the aim of each study. Log-binomial regression was used for estimating the association between the mother’s exposure during pregnancy and the selected neonatal outcomes. The fully conditional specification (FCS) model was performed to generate appropriate values of missing data for those women with missing covariates. The rule-out approach described by Schneeweiss was implemented to make our estimates, which might be affected by unmeasured confounder, more robust. The mediation analysis described by VanderWeele and Vansteelandt was used to assess the role that some adverse neonatal events at presentation (mediator) play in the relationship between the mother’s exposure during pregnancy (exposure) and adverse neonatal events later in life (outcome). Lastly, the Propensity Score Stratification derived from the predicted probability of treatment estimated in a logistic-regression model, as well as the high-dimensional propensity score algorithm to evaluate hundreds of inpatient diagnosis, procedures, and pharmacy claims, were completed to account for all potential confounders. The aim of my thesis is to identify factors to develop and improve the health care related to maternal- fetal and maternal-child world (before and after birth, respectively) from a sociodemographic, farmacoepidemiology, and clinical point of view. The layout of the thesis has been divided into different sections. I will proceed in the first instance by giving an overview of the methods used in the various studies carried out during my PhD, proceeding with a detailed description of the latter.

Abstract:
Background: Research suggests that postnatal affective disorders such as anxiety, depression and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) are associated with lower levels of maternal sensitivity. Understanding the mechanisms through which maternal affective disorders influence maternal sensitivity is important as it could lead to more tailored effective interventions to improve outcomes for women and their infants. One mechanism that is yet to be explored is the way in which mothers' process infant-related information. This thesis therefore developed a cognitive model that aimed to examine this mechanism. Aim: The aim of this thesis was to test this cognitive model of maternal sensitivity using a range of experimental, observational and questionnaire studies. The model proposed that maternal affective symptoms would be associated with maternal processing of infant-related information, which in turn would be associated with maternal sensitivity. Methods & Results: The aims were addressed through a systematic review and a study of women with (n = 23) and without (n = 47) affective symptoms and their infants (aged 2-8 months) after birth. The systematic review found that mothers with perinatal affective disorders are faster to disengage from sad infant faces and are more accurate at identifying sadness in infant faces (Article 1). To assess how mothers process infant-related information, validated pictures of infants' emotional faces were needed. Therefore, a validated set of infant emotional expressions was created and validated on student midwives and nurses and members of the general public. The images were found to have high criterion validity and good test-retest reliability (Article 2). Mothers processing of infant-related information and its relationship with maternal sensitivity was tested using a series of questionnaires, computerised and observational tasks. Results are reported in Articles 3, 4 and 5. Conclusion: Overall, the cognitive model of maternal sensitivity was only partly supported, in that maternal affective symptoms explained more of the variance of maternal sensitivity than maternal processing of infant-related information. Despite this, the work in this thesis provides a novel contribution to the literature by developing and testing a model based on previous research and by using robust measures such as eye-tracking technology and observational measures of mother-infant interaction. However, interpretation of the data is hindered due to methodological issues such as small sample sizes, homogeneous sample and demand characteristics. Therefore, more research is needed to test this model on a larger, more heterogenous sample.

Abstract:
The worldwide maternal mortality rate is excessive. Developing countries such as Tanzania experience the highest maternal mortality rates. The continued exploration of issues to create ease of access for women to quality maternal health care is a significant concern. A central strategy for reducing maternal mortality is that every birth be attended by a skilled birth attendant, therefore special attention was placed on motivations and factors that might lead to an increased utilization of health facilities. This qualitative study assessed the perceptions of local population concerning maternal health services and their recommendations for improved quality of care. The study was conducted in the Karatu District of Tanzania and gathered data through 66 in-depth interviews with participants from 20 villages. The following components were identified as essential for perceived quality care: medical professionals that demonstrate a caring attitude and share information about procedures; a supportive and nurturing environment during labor and delivery; meaningful and informative maternal health education for the entire community; promotion of men’s involvement as an essential part of the system of maternal health; knowledgeable, skilled medical staff with supplies and equipment needed for a safe delivery. By providing these elements, the community will gain trust in health facilities and staff. The alignment the maternal health services offered to the perceived expectation of quality care will create an environment for increased attendance at health facilities by the local population.

Abstract:
Maternal phenylketonuria is a disease process caused by the adverse effects of high maternal blood phenylalanine (PHE) on the fetus. Unless treated, maternal PKU results in teratogenic effects on the fetus that can lead to mental retardation, microcephaly, intrauterine growth retardation, congenital cardiovascular defects, low birth weight, spontaneous abortion and fetal death. Although PKU has been recognized as a major challenge for many years, surprisingly little is known about the pathophysiologic mechanism(s) of PHE toward the fetus. To more thoroughly investigate the pathogenesis of this heritable disease and to explore potential therapeutic actions, the genetic mouse model Pahenu2 was used. The overall goals of this project were to use the Pah enu2 mouse to examine the effect of maternal blood PHE level on: (1) The pregnancy outcome of maternal PKU offspring as measured by the incidence of spontaneous abortion and certain key measures of development at birth (i.e., head circumference, weight, and crown-rump length of offspring); and (2) The fetal nutritional status of maternal PKU offspring as assessed by the levels of PHE, tyrosine (TYR), and other essential amino acids (EAA) at birth. In this study, we clearly observed that elevated maternal blood PHE levels, whether they were caused by the maternal diet or maternal genotype, were responsible for the fetal abnormalities in maternal PKU. With regard to fetal developmental outcomes, significant reductions in birth weight, crown-rump length, and head circumference were seen in offspring gestated under high maternal blood PHE conditions. The incidence of fetal loss was significantly different between treatment and control groups. Reductions in the levels of alanine, glutamine, and glutamic acid were observed in fetal blood among offspring born to mutant mothers with high blood PHE levels. None of the branched chain amino acids were reduced in maternal PKU offspring. These findings strongly suggest that there are important maternal genotype and dietary components but no fetal genotype component to this maternal PKU model. Given that these maternal factors also appear to be the most important components of human maternal PKU, this model seems certain to provide a valid animal model to overcome the difficulties of human studies.

Abstract:
Reducing maternal and child mortality was established as a global priority with the signing of the Millennium Declaration in September 2000. Neonatal vitamin A supplementation and very early breastfeeding initiation are scalable interventions which may improve infant survival. Although breastfeeding has proven benefits for infant health, the potential health consequences of breastfeeding for HIV-infected women are not well studied. In paper one, “The effect of neonatal vitamin A supplementation on morbidity and mortality at 12 months: A randomized trial”, we assessed the efficacy of neonatal vitamin A supplementation (NVAS) in reducing infant morbidity and mortality. Using data from an individually randomized clinical trial of 31,999 infants in Tanzania, we found that NVAS did not affect the risk of death or the incidence of morbidities. However, we noted that postpartum maternal vitamin A supplementation modified the effect of neonatal vitamin A supplementation on infant mortality. In paper two, “Effect of delayed breastfeeding initiation on infant survival: a systematic review and meta-analysis”, our objective was to synthesize the evidence regarding the association between breastfeeding initiation time and infant morbidity and mortality. We pooled five studies, including 136,047 infants. We found a clear dose-response relationship; the risk of neonatal mortality increased with increased delay in breastfeeding initiation. We found a similar pattern when the analysis was restricted to exclusively breastfed infants or low birthweight infants. There was limited evidence regarding the association between breastfeeding initiation time and infant morbidity and growth. We concluded that health policy frameworks and models to estimate newborn and infant survival should consider the independent survival benefit associated with early initiation of breastfeeding. In paper three, “Breastfeeding and Maternal Health among HIV-infected Women in Tanzania”, our objective was to assess the relationship between infant feeding practices and the incidence of maternal mortality, morbidity, and indicators of poor nutritional status from six weeks to two years postpartum in a prospective cohort of Tanzanian women living with HIV. We concluded that breastfeeding may be associated with mixed health outcomes. Additional research should investigate whether HIV-infected women require nutritional support, in addition to antiretroviral therapy, during and after lactation.

Abstract:
Volume 1: Research component There are three papers contained in this volume, all concerned with maternal mental health problems in the perinatal period. The first is a review that examines the existing literature on eating disorders in the perinatal period. It examines prevalence, symptomatology levels across the perinatal period and factors associated with development and remission from eating disorders in the perinatal period. The second paper is a report of research, carried out by the author, investigating obsessive compulsive disorder, bonding and meta-cognitions in new mothers. It specifically examines whether bonding is impaired in new mothers with OCD when compared with mothers who have no symptoms of OCD, a subject that has not been investigated in previous research. Both papers have been prepared for submission to Archives of Women‟s Mental Health. The final paper is a public domain paper describing the literature review and empirical papers and has been used to disseminate the findings of the research amongst participants, mother and baby organisations and mental health professionals. The appendices contain information regarding ethical approval, measures used and instructions to authors from the Archives of Women‟s Mental Health. Volume 2: Clinical component This volume contains five clinical practice reports (CPR) submitted during the doctorate course. These reports reflect the training of the course and the work completed over the three years of the course. CPR 1 and 2 were conducted during a child and adolescent placement. CPR 1 describes a doctor phobia in a five year old girl, formulated from a behavioural and a systemic perspective. CPR 2 reports a single case experimental design study on a narrative intervention for sleep difficulties in a nine year old boy. CPR 3 describes a qualitative service evaluation of a waiting list initiative and changes to the referral system to a Psychological Therapies Service within an adult mental health service. CPR 4 is a case study of a CBT intervention for a client with OCD in a specialist adult service. The abstract of CPR 5, a presentation on a CBT and narrative intervention for anger in a woman with a learning disability in an inpatient setting. The names and identifying details have been changed or removed from these reports to protect anonymity.

Abstract:
Background: Direct estimations of maternal mortality were carried out in Pakistan for the first time. Maternal health and health issues, maternal mortality and the specific causes of death among women must be studied to improve the health care of women and better utilization of maternal health services for better public health. Objective: The main objectives of this study are to analyze maternal health, morbidity and mortality indicators. The causes of death and health care utilization will be highlighted, hence, useful recommendations can be made to reduce maternal deaths and to attain the Sustainable Development Goal 3.1. Method: Utilizing the data of Pakistan Maternal Mortality Survey 2019, crosstabs and frequency tables are constructed and multivariant analysis was conducted to find out the most effective factors contributing to the deaths. IBM SPSS and STATA were used for the analysis. Results and Conclusion: 40% population surveyed was under 15, age 65 or above. Average household members were 6-7. Drinking water facility was majorly improved in both urban and rural areas. Hospital services in rural areas were mostly (54%) in the parameter of 10+ kms and Basic Health Units were mainly found inside the community. Very few urban households were in the poorest quantile while very few rural households were in the wealthiest quantile. Women education distribution showed that a high percentage of women (52%) were uneducated and only a 12% had received higher education. Maternal mortality ratio (MMR) for the 3-year period before the survey was 186 deaths per 100,000 live births while pregnancy related mortality rate was 251 deaths per 100,000 live births, which was higher compared to the MMR. Maternal death causes were divided into direct and indirect causes, where major causes were reported to be obstetric Hemorrhage (41%), Hypertensive disorders (29%), Pregnancy with abortive outcome (10%), other obstetric pregnancy related infection (6%) and non-obstetric (4%). 37% women who died in the three years before the survey sought medical care at a public sector health facility while 26% at private sector and 5% at home. A majority (90%) of women who had pregnancy complications in the 3 years before the survey received ANC from a skilled provider.

Abstract:
Background: Numerous studies have shown the adverse effects of maternal depression, which impacts both mother and child as well as can lower the maternal-fetal attachment. However, during pregnancy, a pregnant woman tends to practice healthier behavior to improve her health and the baby. A gap remains in our understanding of the effect of health behavior as the variable which influences the relationship between depression and maternal-fetal attachment. This study aimed to investigate the mediating effect of healthy behavior on the relationship between maternal depression and maternal-fetal attachment. Subjects and Method: A cross sectional study was conducted at Community Health Centers in Surakarta, from July to September 2019. A sample of 224 pregnant women was selected for this study. The dependent variable was a healthy lifestyle. The independent variable was depression and maternal-fetal attachment. Depression was measured by Edinburgh Postpartum Depression Scale (EPDS). The data were analyzed by Hayes’ process mediation analysis. Results: Health-promoting lifestyle totally mediated the relationship between maternal depression and maternal-fetal attachment (b= -0.25; SE= 0.10; 95% CI= -0.47 to 0.05). Conclusion: Health-promoting lifestyle and behavior mediates the relationship between maternal depression and maternal-fetal attachment.
