Abstract:
In the latter half of gestation in the mare, progesterone concentrations decline to near undetectable levels while other 5α-reduced pregnanes are elevated. Of these, 5α-dihydroprogesterone and allopregnanolone have been reported to have important roles in either pregnancy maintenance or fetal quiescence. During this time, the placenta is necessary for pregnane metabolism, with the enzyme 5α-reductase being required for the conversion of progesterone to 5α-dihydroprogesterone. The objectives of this study were to assess the effects of a 5α-reductase inhibitor, dutasteride on pregnane metabolism (pregnenolone, progesterone, 5α-dihydroprogesterone, 20α-hydroxy-5α-pregnan-3-one, 5α-pregnane-3β,20α-diol and allopregnanolone), to determine circulating dutasteride concentrations and to assess effects of dutasteride treatment on gestational parameters. Pregnant mares (n = 5) received dutasteride (0.01 mg/kg/day, IM) and control mares (n = 4) received vehicle alone from 300 to 320 days of gestation or until parturition. Concentrations of dutasteride, pregnenolone, progesterone, 5α-dihydroprogesterone, 20α-hydroxy-5α-pregnan-3-one, 5α-pregnane-3β,20α-diol, and allopregnanolone were evaluated via liquid chromatography–tandem mass spectrometry. Samples were analyzed as both days post treatment and as days prepartum. No significant treatment effects were detected in pregnenolone, 5α-dihydroprogesterone, 20α-hydroxy-5α-pregnan-3-one, 5α-pregnane-3β,20α-diol or allopregnanolone for either analysis; however, progesterone concentrations were increased (P < 0.05) sixfold in dutasteride-treated mares compared to control mares. Dutasteride concentrations increased in the treated mares, with a significant correlation (P < 0.05) between dutasteride concentrations and pregnenolone or progesterone concentrations. Gestational length and neonatal outcomes were not significantly altered in dutasteride-treated mares. Although 5α-reduced metabolites were unchanged, these data suggest an accumulation of precursor progesterone with inhibition of 5α-reductase, indicating the ability of dutasteride to alter progesterone metabolism.

Abstract:
Introduction: Hypertensive disorders complicate 5-10% in all pregnant and together form the deadly triad and hemorrhage and heart disease that contribute greatly to maternal morbidity or mortality. This study aims to identify retinal changes in pregnancy-induced hypertension and analyze the association between retinal changes and hypertension severity. Method: A total of 100 pregnant admitted with pregnancy-induced hypertension(PIH) were included. Patients with pre-existing hypertension, diabetes mellitus, and renal diseases were excluded from the study. The vision, anterior segment, and Fundus were examined. Result: Higher number of PIH were recorded in the 21-30 years age group. Fifty-four pregnant women suffered from mild preeclampsia, 40 pregnant women with severe preeclampsia, and six pregnant women with eclampsia with seizures. 41% of pregnant had normal fundus, and 24% of pregnant had hypertensive retinopathy. Whereas grade 2,3, and 4 retinopathy was observed in 22%, 6%, and 2% of pregnant women. Two percent of pregnants had macular edema, and 3% had central serous retinopathy. No association was observed between the fundus findings with age/gravida. Whereas a significant positive correlation was observed between the fundus findings and hypertension severity (P < 0.001). Conclusion: Overall, 54% of pregnants were recorded with hypertensive retinopathy. A positive correlation was observed between fundus changes with the hypertension severity. This study reports the importance of routine fundus examination in pregnant with hypertension. Retinal change during pregnancy is an important indicator to decide the pregnancy termination or any other opt.

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:
Background: Pregnancy causes immense hormonal, vascular and immunologic changes affecting every organ system including skin. It can have a positive as well as a negative effect on the course of pre-existing skin diseases. Specific dermatoses of pregnancy constitute a heterogenous group of inflammatory dermatoses associated exclusively with pregnancy. Objectives: To study the spectrum and frequency of pregnancy dermatoses and to compare the clinico- epidemiological profile of non-specific dermatoses among pregnant versus non-pregnant women of reproductive age.Material and Methods: This descriptive hospital based study recruited 300 patients with skin lesions; the test group comprised 150 pregnant ladies while the control group comprised 150 non-pregnant female of reproductive age. Demographic characteristics, medical history, examination findings, and relevant investigation reports were noted and diagnosis established. The patients of test group were then classified into distinct subgroups of dermatoses and were compared with non-pregnant patients of control group. Results: Specific dermatoses of pregnancy was very common (41.33%) in our study among which Prurigo of pregnancy was the commonest (24%). Inflammatory lesions were predominant in pregnant group (57.33%, p=<0.001) whereas infectious diseases were predominant in the non-pregnants (44.67%). The demographic variables had no significant role in determining the distribution of any of the skin lesions in this study. Conclusion: Inflammatory lesions mostly specific dermatoses of pregnancy are found to be the commonest skin lesions among the pregnant ladies whereas infectious diseases are found to be comparable among pregnant and non pregnant ladies in our study.NJDVL Vol. 13, No. 1, 2015 Page: 38-44

Abstract:
Background: Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) can be transmitted from mothers to their babies during pregnancy, delivery through vaginal fluids or breastfeeding. As false positivity anti-HIV results due to pregnancy could be detected and no relevant study have been reported in Northern Cyprus so far, we aimed to estimate the false anti-HIV positivity rate in pregnant women. Methods: A total of 11.977 women admitted to Near East University Hospital between 2015 and 2018 were involved. The fourth generation anti-HIV-1/2 ELISA test was carried out by chemiluminescence enzyme immunoassay. Positive results were confirmed by real-time polymerase chain reaction (rt-PCR). SPSS (Statistical Package for the Social Sciences) Demo Ver 22 program was used for statistical analysis and significance (p<0.05) was measured by Person Chi-Square and Fisher's Exact tests. Results: Anti-HIV-1/2 ELISA test was positive in 7 (0.3%) of pregnant and 11 (0.1%) of non-pregnant women. HIV RNA was not detected in any pregnant however, was detected in 2 (0.02%) of non pregnant. S/Co titer of pregnant and non pregnant who have positive anti-HIV-test without viral load was x̄=2.68±1.64 (1.34-5.20) and x̄=8.63±7.68 (1.56-20.98) respectively. False positivity was significantly higher in pregnants compared to non-pregnants (p=0.033). Conclusion: False positivity can be encountered during pregnancy therefore, positive anti-HIV-1/2 ELISA results should be confirmed with molecular techniques before initiating antiretroviral treatment.

Abstract:
Intrahepatic cholestasis of pregnanсу is the most common liver pathology in pregnant women. This disease has complex multifactorial pathogenesis, which is based on a genetic predisposition, insufficient amount of selenium in food and an incorrect reaction of a pregnant woman's body to a normal or elevated level of sex hormones and their metabolites. The main clinical manifestation is skin itching without skin rash. Intrahepatic cholestasis of pregnanсy leads to the development of pregnancy complications, such as preterm labour, often accompanied by meconium staining of amniotic fluid. In newborns, regardless of the gestational age, it contributes to the development of severe respiratory distress syndrome. These complications during pregnancy and the perinatal period are accompanied by high perinatal morbidity and mortality. This article describes three cases of pregnancy complicated by intrahepatic cholestasis, with early neonatal death of newborns. An indepth study and identification of the possible predictors of perinatal death of newborns from mothers with intrahepatic cholestasis of pregnancy will prevent negative outcomes in the future.

Abstract:
Objective: This research was carried out with the aim of examining the relationship between internet use in pregnant women and their thoughts about the health of their baby. Method: The descriptive cross-sectional study was conducted with 216 pregnant women registered in two Family Health Centers between November 2021 and February 2022. The data of the study were collected using the Personal Information Form, the Prenatal Decision-Making Scale for Pregnants, and the Prenatal Self-Assessment Scale's Thoughts About Self and Baby's Health Sub-dimension. Results: A statistically significant difference was found between the abortion/abortion history, number of pregnancies and current pregnancy desire status of the pregnant women and the total mean score of the Internet Decision Making Scale for Pregnants. A statistically significant difference was determined between the current pregnancy-related risk/disease status of pregnant women and the means cores of the Opinions About Self and Baby's Health Sub-Dimension. It was determined that the mean score of the Pregnant Women's Decision-Making Scale on the Internet was 34.75±7.13 and the Sub-dimension of Thoughts About Self and Baby's Health was 23.71±5.16. A positive correlation was found between the total and sub-dimensions of the Pregnant Women's Internet Decision-Making Scale and the Opinions About Self and Baby's Health Sub-dimension. Conclusion: As the decision-making level of pregnant women increases via the internet, their thoughts about improving their own health and the health of their baby also increase.

Objective: It was carried out to determine the attitudes of pregnant women toward the Covid-19 vaccine and related factors. Methods: The correlational and descriptive study was conducted with 356 pregnant women. In the study, data were collected using an introductory questionnaire, "Attitudes towards Covid-19 Vaccine Scale", "Vaccination Hesitancy in Pandemics Scale", and "Covid-19 Vaccine Literacy Scale". Research data were analyzed with SPSS 25 package program. One-way ANOVA and Student-t test were used to determine the difference between the descriptive characteristics of the pregnant women participating in the study and the total and sub-dimension mean scores of the Attitude Scale towards the Covid-19 Vaccine. Pearson correlation analysis was used to determine the relationship between the Vaccine Hesitancy Scale in Pandemics, the Covid-19 Vaccine Literacy Scale, and the Attitudes Towards Covid-19 Vaccine Scale. Linear regression analysis was used to determine the factors affecting the Attitudes of Pregnants towards the Covid-19 Vaccine. Results: It was concluded that 37.4% of the pregnant women did not have any Covid-19 vaccine, 62.6% had the Covid-19 vaccine before pregnancy, and 22.5% had the vaccine during pregnancy. In pregnant women, those who have hesitations about the vaccine in cases such as working, increase in education level, fear of contracting Covid-19 before birth, having pre-pregnancy Covid-19 vaccine, thinking that pregnant women may have Covid-19 vaccine, getting Covid-19 vaccine during pregnancy, etc. increase their attitudes towards vaccination. Conclusion: Consider to change the conclusion: It was found that quite a few pregnant women received the Covid-19 vaccine during their pregnancy. Pregnant women's vaccination hesitancy influences their attitudes toward Covid-19.

Abstract:
Background: In this study, it was aimed to investigate the sociocultural and socioeconomic status of pregnant patients who applied to the department of oral and maxillofacial surgery for tooth extraction as well as their level of awareness about oral and dental health. Methods: A questionnaire including total of 16 questions about their awareness, practices and attitudes towards oral and dental health was filled by 193 pregnant volunteers, and the results were evaluated statistically. Results: When the attitudes of pregnant women towards oral and dental health were examined according to their monthly income, it was found that there was no statistically significant difference (p&gt;0.05). However, it was determined that the attitudes of pregnant women with a middle income towards oral and dental health were better. In addition, it was determined that there was a statistically significant difference in the level of consciousness between those who had a dental examination during pregnancy and those who did not (p&lt;0.05). Conclusions: Not all the pregnant women are always aware that they may have problems by their oral and dental health during their pregnancy and moreover, they are not always well informed by the health personnel. It seems there is a lack of dental health controls in Turkey for pregnants. This pilot study indicates that oral health screening needs to be a routine procedure of antenatal clinics in Turkey in order to inform pregnants in detail regardless of their sociocultural and socioeconomic status to reach better oral health and consequently better pregnancy outcomes.

ENGLISH ABSTRACT: The alarming rate of teenage pregnancies among South Africans became a driving force for the researcher to investigate this particular phenomenon. The goal of this study was to explore and describe the experiences of pregnant teenagers about their pregnancy. Guided by the research question “ What are the experiences of pregnant teenagers about their pregnancy?” a scientific investigation was undertaken. The objectives set for the study were to determine their experience of their current pregnancy; to determine their knowledge of contraceptives; and to explore their experience regarding the services delivered by the health care workers. A phenomenological descriptive design with a qualitative approach was the most suitable scientific method to describe the experiences of pregnant teenagers who attend an antenatal clinic in Chatsworth, Kwazulu Natal. An interview guide or protocol that includes a list of open-ended questions based on the objectives, the literature review, and the professional experience of the researcher was designed and used to explore during each interview. The final sample consisted of ten participants. Experts in the field of nursing and research methodology were consulted to determine the feasibility and content of the study, to evaluate the research process and outcome. The researcher collected the data personally. Data was collected by means of individual interviews. The researcher did the transcription of the interviews. Ethical approval was obtained from Stellenbosch University and the relevant health authorities. Informed written consent was obtained from the participants. Parental permission was obtained for participants under the age of 18 years. Participants younger than 18 years of age also completed an assent form. Data that emerged from the data analysis was coded and categorised into sub-themes and themes. The researcher compiled a written account of the interpretations that emerged from the data analysis. In addition, member checking was done with each participant after individual interviews, to validate the transcribed data. The conceptual framework for this study was adapted from Maslow (1968). The findings suggest that there is a need for parental intervention as far as teenage pregnancy is concerned, financial difficulties associated with poverty was identified as one of the major contributing factor to teenage pregnancy, and attitudes of providers of contraceptives led to teenagers, not using contraceptives in some cases. It is recommended that services at the clinic be improved; health care workers undergo extensive training and education regarding teenage health and sexuality needs. Furthermore review and revitalisation of education programs at schools, to meet the needs of teenagers, which are constantly changing according to the times, are recommended. The involvement of parents and the community in combating issues surrounding teenage pregnancy is vital. Further research is recommended to find solutions to alleviate this problem of teenage pregnancy. All stakeholders need to work together to remedy this social problem as it is not an issue that can be dealt with in isolation.
AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Die veronrustende voorkoms van tienerswangerskappe onder Suid-Afrikaners was die motiverende faktor vir die navorser om die studie te onderneem. Die doel van die studie was om die ervaringe van swanger tieners ten opsigte van hul swangerskap te identifiseer en te beskryf. Die wetenskaplike ondersoek is gelei deur die navorsingsvraag, “wat is die ervaringe van swanger tieners betreffende swangerskap?” Die doelwitte vir die studie was om te bepaal: die ervaringe van die huidige swangerskap; kennis betreffende voorbehoedmiddels sowel as die ervaring ten opsigte van die dienste soos gelewer deur die gesondheidswerkers. 'n Fenomenologiese, beskrywende ontwerp met 'n kwalitatiewe benadering is as die mees geskikte wetenskaplike metode beskou om die ervaringe van swanger tieners wie 'n voorgeboorte-kliniek in Chatsworth, KwaZulu-Natal bywoon, te beskryf. Die navorser het gebruik gemaak van 'n vooraf opgestelde onderhoud gids, protokol bestaande uit 'n lys van oop vrae gebaseer op die doelwitte, die literatuuroorsig en die professionele ervaring van die navorser. Die finale steekproef was tien deelnemers. Kundiges op die gebied van verpleging en navorsingsmetodologie is geraadpleeg ten opsigte van die haalbaarheid, inhoud van die studie sowel, as om die proses en uitkoms van die navorsing te evalueer. Die data is persoonlik deur die navorser versamel. Data is ingesamel deur middel van individuele onderhoude. Transkripsie van die onderhoude is deur die navorser self-gedoen. Etiese goedkeuring is vooraf verkry vanaf die Universiteit van Stellenbosch sowel as die betrokke gesondheidsowerhede. Ingeligte skriftelike toestemming is verkry van die deelnemers sowel as van die ouers in geval van minderjaige tieners. Tydens die data-analise is data gekodeer en in temas en sub- temas kategoriseer. 'n Skriftelike verslag is saamgestel ooreenkomstig die interpretasie uit die data-analise. Die navorser het na transkripsie met elke onderskeie deelnemer gekontroleer ten einde geldigheid van die data te verseker. Maslow (1968) se teorie is gebruik as konseptuele raamwerk vir die studie. Die bevindinge dui daarop dat daar 'n behoefte is aan ouerlike tussentrede betreffende tienerswangerskappe. Finansiële probleme in verband met armoede is ïdentifiseer as een van die groot bydraende faktore tot tienerswangerskappe, sowel as dat houdings van diegene wat kontrasepsie verskaf daartoe kan lei dat tieners nie wil gebruik maak van voorbehoedmiddels nie. Dit word aanbeveel dat die dienste by die kliniek moet verbeter; gesondheidswerkers uitgebreide opleiding en onderrig moet kry ten opsigte van tienergesondheid en seksualiteit behoeftes. Hersiening en vernuwing van opvoedkundige programme by skole om in die voortdurende veranderende behoeftes van tieners, te voldoen. Die betrokkenheid van ouers en die gemeenskap in die bestryding van kwessies rondom tienerswangerskappe is noodsaaklik. Verdere navorsing word aanbeveel om oplossings te vind om hierdie probleem van tienerswangerskappe aan te spreek. Alle belanghebbendes moet saamwerk om hierdie sosiale probleem op te los.

Abstract:
A method for measuring human platelet Angiotensin II (All) binding was validated, and characterisation studies involving 67 non-pregnant subjects were performed. Platelets were found to possess high affinity binding sites with many of the characteristics of receptors. No correlation was found between platelet All binding and the rise in intracellular free calcium after ex vivo All infusion, thus formal validation of the binding sites as receptors was not achieved. In 25 non-pregnant subjects, there was an inverse correlation between platelet All binding and simultaneously measured plasma All (P<0.02). In 10 ovulatory subjects, platelet All binding diminished in the luteal phase of the menstrual cycle (P<0.02). In a pilot cross-sectional study of platelet All in normotensive pregnancy, incorporating 125 pregnant/postnatal patients, platelet All binding was significantly lower in 1st trimester patients as compared to non-pregnant subjects (P<0.001). Platelet All binding remained low throughout pregnancy. Higher values, approximating to the non-pregnant level, were found 6 weeks postnatally. These findings were confirmed in a longitudinal study .of 30 pregnant women, with a diminution in platelet All binding being suggested by 5-8 weeks gestation (p= 0.02). Inverse correlations in pregnancy between platelet All binding and the components of the renin-angiotensin system were found (P<0.01). There were also significant correlations between platelet All binding and the levels of serum sodium, urea and osmolality (P<0.01). When platelet All binding was measured in 67 patients with established hypertension in pregnancy, binding in patients with pregnancy induced hypertension (PIH) was significantly higher than in normotensive primigravidae (P<0.0001). No differences in binding were found in the puerperium. In a prospective comparison of platelet All binding and the All sensitivity test in predicting the development of PIH, involving 34 subjects, platelet All binding was a more effective discriminant than any of the parameters derived from the All sensitivity test. There was a significant correlation between platelet All binding and the slope of the curve relating the diastolic pressor response to infused All (P<0.01).

Abstract:
The purpose of this study is to examine the problems that pregnant teenagers encounter at school and at home while they are trying to complete their high school education. Data were collected by in-depth interviews. Twenty pregnant adolescents, who were between the ages of 15 through 18, and were participants in a special teen pregnancy program were interviewed. The major findings in this study included the respondents': 1) unstable family life histories, 2) denial that they were pregnant, 3) need for self-identity as an adult, 4) conflict with parents and 5) motivation to complete their high school education. This study points to the need for more research on the problems that pregnant adolescents encounter in their everyday lives.

Abstract:
AbstractBodily changes and processes play a crucial role in the emergence of life course transitions. Pregnancy is a clear example of this, being a temporary corporeal and transitional, biographical state. While bodily and material aspects of transitions are often naturalized, this chapter highlights discourses that give culturally and historically contingent meaning to the pregnant body and its changes. Focusing on German pregnancy advice literature, it shows how discourses on bodies in transition are articulated with medical risk concepts and gendered ideals to form specific normative notions of doing pregnancy as well as being pregnant the “right” way. The ambiguous concept of pregnancy as a natural, healthy condition and in need of medical control strongly responsibilizes pregnant persons for the development of the fetus. Fathers-to-be figure as supporters and controllers, their involvement in pregnancy expressed in narratives about “pregnant men”. While gendered ideals are challenged by the bodily and practical changes during pregnancy, they are recalibrated and reproduced in advice discourse.

Abstract:
Pregnant women, as a special group, bear the mission of nurturing and continuing human life. Pregnant women need to experience psychological and physiological changes in the tenth month of pregnancy. In the special "post-epidemic era", it is hard and unsafe for pregnant women to go to the hospital regularly for birth check-up. In order to make pregnant women have a better prenatal experience, our team wants to design a wearable device, which can monitor the fetal heart rate and the frequency of fetal movement, so that pregnant women can also realize routine detection of the fetal condition at home, and protect the growth health and safety of the fetus. In this design, questionnaire interview, literature search and collaborative story telling are used to deeply understand the pain points of pregnant women's antenatal examination, the development status of wearable devices for pregnant women at home and abroad, pregnant women's preferences and so on. Then, determine the product use process, product functional structure and product packaging. This design adopts cutting-edge technologies such as flexible sensors, and combines ergonomics and kansei engineering. The product obtains the data and information of pregnant women and fetuses, and then through sorting and analysis, the results are intuitively transmitted to pregnant women, pregnant women's relatives or doctors in the matching APP, so that users can clearly obtain the health data of pregnant women in real time. Realize early warning of physical abnormalities of infants and mothers, early warning and early treatment, so as to better protect the safety and health of pregnant women and fetuses during pregnancy. After the usability test, the interviewed pregnant women thought that the design had a certain effect.

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: During pregnancy, there can be various pregnancy complications, including nausea and vomiting, which is often experienced by pregnant women. This condition is one of the earliest symptoms of pregnancy. This nausea and vomiting are physiological. This physiological condition will turn into a pathology if not appropriately treated. This study aimed to analyze the effect of acupressure on reducing nausea and vomiting in pregnant women at the Sidoarjo midwife’s independent practice. Subjects and Method: This study is a quasi-experiment with pre and post-test control group design conducted at Midwife Independent Practice, Sidoarjo from April to September, 2020. The dependent variable was nausea and vomiting. The independent variable was acupressure. The population of all primigravida pregnant women who experience nausea and vomiting. A sample of 40 was divided into 20 given intervention and 20 as control selected by purposive sampling. The data were collected by acupressure SOP and questionnaire with a Score Pregnancy Unique Quantification of Emesis and or Nausea Scoring System (PUQE) assessment. The data were analyzed by Wilcoxon and Mann Whitney. Results: The results showed that acupressure was effective in reducing nausea and vomiting in primigravida pregnant women (OR = 19.00; 95% CI = 2.11 to 5.13; p= 0.009). Conclusion: Acupressure is effective in reducing nausea and vomiting in primigravida pregnant women. Keywords: acupressure, pregnant women, nausea and vomiting Correspondence: Nanik Handayani.

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:
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:
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:
Thrombomodulin(TM) is a cell surface protein found on endothelial cell that binds thrombin and increases thrombin's ability to activate protein C(PC). In the present study, we examined hematological characteristics and behavior of plasma PC level in pregnant women and localization of TM in the placental villous tissue. The results obtained are reported here. Cubital venous blood of 20 normal pregnants, 8 purperants and 60 non-pregnants. PC antigen(PC:Ag) was measured by the Laurell's technique using Assera plate-proteinC. Localization of TM was determined in such a way that the villous tissue was fixed in formalin, cut into paraffin sections, and stained by ABC method using anti-TM antibody. Coagulation-related factors of the pregnant blood, i.e. fibrinogen, FV, FVIII, FX, FXII and prekallikren showed statistically higher values compared with the control group, and AT-III showed almost simillar value to the control group or tended to decrease to scxne extent compared therewith. As for fibrinolysis-related factors, on the other hand, plasminogen, α1-antitripsin showed higher values with the progress of pregnancy, and α2-macro_ globulin showed slightly lower values in both 3rd trimester and puerperal stage. PC:Ag increased in the 2nd and 3rd trimester (p<0.01). Comparative examinations made of PC:Ag level between pre- and post-taking oral centraceptives revealed a significant (p<0.05) decrease frcm 131.0%( pre-taking) to 117.0%(post-taking). At the 11th week of pregnancy, TM was confirmed to be highly localized in syncytiotrophoblast in the villous tissue, especially in microvilli. At the 40th week, TM was also confirmed in the same site, but with weaker stainability. It was suggested that thrombosis and hemostasis-related factors were in a state of co-existing overproduction and consumption. Moreover we supposed that the existence of TM and the increase in PC might be just appropriate for the maintenance of anti-thrombogenesis in the uteroplacental circulation.

Abstract:
While pregnant, the mother and fetus coexist, which is a unique physiological state.Disruption of maternal-fetal connection leads to diseases of pregnancy and the infant This study aims to present current developments that may help in the early detection of issues, highlight the difficulties in measuring vital signs accurately in pregnancy, and estimate typical ranges for maternal vital signs throughout pregnancy. Additionally, the study focuses on the association between SARS-CoV-2 infection during pregnancy and unfavorable pregnancy outcomes. A higher risk of preeclampsia, premature birth, and other unfavorable pregnancy outcomes may be linked to COVID-19. The vital signs of Covid-19-contaminated expectant mothers, particularly respiration, pulse, and temperature, were found to differ significantly at p values of (0.0001*, 0.0001*, and 0.001*). The research demonstrated how Covid 19 affected expectant mothers who were at risk for preeclampsia, stillbirth, premature birth, and NICU hospitalization. It is believed that changes to vital indicators (Heart rate, blood pressure, temperature, oxygen saturation, and respiratory rate)occur both during and right after pregnancy. especially when a pregnant woman contracts the Corona infection. With COVID-19, we seek to synthesize the body of research on changes in vital signs throughout pregnancy so that fresh centile charts could be made for every stage of pregnancy and the first few weeks following delivery.

Abstract:
Review question / Objective: The objective of this systematic review was to synthesize the available evidence on food taboos and their perceived reasons among pregnant women in Ethiopia to posit comprehensive and precise evidence for decision making. The systematic review has addressed the following two questions: What are the various foods considered taboos by pregnant women in Ethiopia? What are the perceived reasons for food taboos by pregnant women in Ethiopia? Condition being studied: Undernutrition among pregnant women has been one of the serious public health challenges in Ethiopia. Food taboos prevent eating certain food items thus compromising one’s dietary diversity and quality which, in turn, would lead to poor health and nutritional outcomes. Evidence shows that food taboos are largely associated with maternal and fetal malnutrition during pregnancy and could have consequences on the mothers and their children later in life. Realizing such associations between food taboos and maternal undernutrition which in turn has fatal consequences, this systematic review synthesized evidence on food taboos and their perceived reasons among pregnant women in Ethiopia.

Abstract:
Traditional birth attendants (TBAs) who assist women are common in low-income countries. Providing formal training to untrained TBAs or additional training on specific tasks could improve care for pregnant women and pregnancy outcomes. Training programmes can differ considerably, making it difficult to make clear distinctions between initial training and additional training that are applicable across different settings.
