Full textAbstract:
Objective: We conducted a prospective randomised trial to assess whether a specific type of regular physical training performed by women with obesity is related to obtaining specific psychological benefits. Methods: Forty-four women qualified for the study and were divided into two groups. The applied intervention consisted of regular three-month physical exercises in the form of endurance training (group A) or endurance strength training (group B). Initially, and after the completed intervention, we examined anthropometric measurements and the level of: stress (PSS-10), general self-esteem (SES), body self-report (BSQ–34, FRS), and behaviours associated with diet (TFEQ-18). Results: As a result of the intervention, both groups had significantly lower anthropometric parameters and FRS scores with regard to the current figure (gr. A:δ FRS CS −0.90 ± 0.83, p < 0.001; gr. B:δ FRS CS −0.41 ± 0.50, p = 0.01) and BSQ–34 results (gr. A:δ BSQ–34 −14.90 ± 13.5, p = 0.001; gr. B:δ BSQ–34 − 18.64 ± 25.4, p = 0.01). Additionally, an increase in cognitive restraint (δ TFEQ–18 CR1.65 ± 2.06, p = 0.01) and a decrease in emotional eating (δ TFEQ–18 EE −0.82 ± 1.28, p = 0.01) were observed in group B. There were no between-group differences in terms of the magnitude of changes achieved due to the intervention, except for asignificant improvement in the perception of their current figure (FRS) (δ FRSCS −0.90 ± 0.83, p = 0.03) in group A. Conclusions: Regular physical activity over a three-month period by women with obesity promotes the perception of their own body as slimmer and lowers body shape concerns. The change in body shape perception was more pronounced under the influence of endurance training than endurance strength training. Trial registration: ClinicalTrials.gov ID NCT04793451.

Full textAbstract:
Background: the violations of eating behavior began to be actively studied since the mid-20th century. In recent years, researchers from different countries have found new evidence of the role of eating behavior, the patient's eating habits in the development of obesity. Since the scope of the study of eating behavior and its disorders began to develop actively relatively recently, many aspects of this problem have not yet been studied.
Aim: was to study the psychological features, body composition and parameters of actual nutrition of women with eating behavior disorders.
Methods. We used the Dutch questionnaire DEBQ to analyze the types of eating behavior. To assess the severity of eating disorders inherent in eating disorders, the technique "Scale of Eating Behavior Assessment" was used. The actual mental state of the subjects was studied using a clinical and psychological test a questionnaire of the severity of psychopathological symptoms (SCL-90-R). The component composition of the body was assessed using the apparatus for bioimpedanceometry ABC-01 "Medass". The evaluation of the actual nutrition by the method of frequency analysis was carried out with the help of the computer program "Analysis of the state of human nutrition".
Results. In all groups of women with eating disorders, higher values on the scales of desire for thinness, bulimia and dissatisfaction with the body, somatization, obsessional-compulsiveness, interpersonal sensitivity, depressiveness, anxiety were found. As the eating disorders worsened, the consumption of mono-and disaccharides and added sugar increased, which was accompanied by an increase of the body fat, both in absolute and relative units.
Conclusions. In women with eating disorders violations of personal and psychological characteristics, nutrition patterns were detected, which were accompanied by an increase in body fat.

AbstractObesity is a chronic and multifactorial disease promoted by positive energy balance. The objective was to evaluate the effects of interdisciplinary therapy in the neuroendocrine control of food intake, inflammatory markers, and psychological aspects in obese women. Forty-seven obese women (43.32±5.82 years, 34.86±3.08 kg/m2), aged 30–50 years, participated in an interdisciplinary lifestyle change therapy, consisting of nutritional counseling, physical exercises, and psychological therapy for 36 weeks. After the long-term therapy, there was a decrease in body weight (Δ –5.36 kg), BMI (Δ –2.01 kg/m2), abdominal (Δ –9.09 cm), hip (Δ –5.03 cm), and thigh (Δ –5.07 cm) perimeters. There was also a significant improvement in body composition, with an increase in fat-free mass (Δ 1.60%) and reduction of body fat (Δ –3.74 kg). The therapy proposed also provided an improvement in depression scores (Δ –6.63), anxiety (Δ –4.07), body image (Δ –25.25), and binge eating (Δ –5.25). There was a significant reduction in serum levels of leptin (Δ –15.62 ng/ml). The interdisciplinary therapy was able to provide both, physical and psychological benefits in energy balance, which enables the use of this model as a feasible clinical strategy for the treatment of obesity.

Full textAbstract:
Advances in medicine and the evolution of health-related behaviors through time and across cultures have contributed to changes in attitudes toward natural alimentation. In the past, women who breastfed their babies were educated by word of mouth and family traditions passed on by their female relatives and communities, and the act of breastfeeding itself constituted a socio-cultural process. The health-related benefits of breast milk for infant nutrition have long been known. Throughout the ages, the image of the breastfeeding woman has inspired many artists and promoted natural alimentation. Ancient beliefs and religious practices were combined with the teachings of the church as well as alchemy principles, and lactation counseling was based on popular belief rather than scientific or medical knowledge. In modern times, breastfeeding has experienced a rise in popularity and is recommended to mothers during pregnancy and as part of contraception education. Anecdotal beliefs regarding the beneficial effects of breastfeeding on children’s overall psychological wellbeing have become a subject of scientific investigation. Within the current pregnancy-related standards, the modern promotion of breastfeeding encompasses nutritional, immunological and psychological aspects. In this paper we have summarized the evolution of the beliefs that have surrounded breastfeeding from antiquity to the present day.

This study aims to understand the relationship between adult women's perception of eyelash cosmetics and their satisfaction with eyelash nutrients. From October 2021 to April 2022, 203 adult women were surveyed using an online questionnaire to collect data on eyelash nutrient product satisfaction and general characteristics.
The data was analyzed using SPSS v. 25 Statistic program package. As a result of investigating using frequency analysis, factor analysis, technical statistical analysis, integrated variable analysis, correlation, and multiple regression analysis, it was found that functional recognition was highest in both eyelash makeup recognition and eyelash application recognition. Satisfaction with eyelash nutrients appeared in the order of product quality, product safety, and product sensitivity. It was confirmed that the higher the cosmetic, functional, and psychological awareness of eyelashes, the higher the product satisfaction with eyelash nutrients. (p<.05). As a result, it was confirmed that the higher the functional and psychological awareness of eyelash beauty among adult women, the higher the awareness of eyelash nutrients. By empirically analyzing the causal relationship between the awareness of eyelash beauty and eyelash nutrition, this research can provide quantitative data on the academic and topical aspects of the use of eyelash nutrition in the beauty industry.

Full textAbstract:
Lactobacillus gasseri CP2305 (CP2305) is a paraprobiotic that exhibits beneficial effects on the intestinal function and microbiota, and increases resistance to psychological stress. The stress response mechanism mainly involves the hypothalamic–pituitary–adrenal axis, which is influenced by the gut–brain axis. Furthermore, the gut–brain axis also communicates bidirectionally with the intestinal microbiota. Additionally, the hypothalamic–pituitary–adrenal and hypothalamic–pituitary–gonadal axes share a common route that affects both mental and health aspects in women. This double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel-group clinical trial aimed to analyze the influence of the intake of CP2305 on mild symptoms associated with menopause. Eighty women aged 40–60 years ingested CP2305 or placebo tablets for six consecutive menstrual cycles. Assessment was based on the observation of climacteric symptoms with two validated questionnaires—the Simplified Menopausal Index (SMI) and the Greene Climacteric Scale (GCS). The results showed that CP2305 provided significant relief in the SMI total score, SMI vasomotor score, SMI psychological score, GCS total score, GCS somatic score, and GCS vasomotor score compared to the placebo. The percentage of women with symptom relief for the SMI total score was 75.0%, with 30 of 40 women in the CP2305 group, and 55.0%, with 22 of 40 women in the placebo group (p = 0.0594). These findings provide new insights into the function of paraprobiotic CP2305 in relieving mild climacteric symptoms in women.

Full textAbstract:
The study presents an assessment of risk factors that affect obesity of a pregnant woman through components in the macrosystem, mesosystem, exosystem, and microsystem hierarchy according to Ramona Mercer's conceptual framework. Through the conceptual framework, we identify aspects with maternal and child impact in women with excessive body weight. The benefits of using the Mercer model are that multiple domains are identified and factors that affect nutrition, physical activity, and optimization of weight gain in a pregnant woman are taken into account. The conceptual framework supports the perception of contextual circumstances, helps to create conditions for changing health behavior and reducing health risks. Obesity in a pregnant woman, excessive weight gain and gestational body weight are influenced by physiological, psychological, behavioral, family, cultural and environmental factors. The interaction of factors creates preconditions for improving or worsening the health of a pregnant woman and a prenatal child during pregnancy. The process of caring for a pregnant woman with excessive body weight is focused on four concepts of obesity, pregnancy, complications and nursing management. The analysis of the conceptual framework helps to create preventive interventions and to select effective strategies. The aim of interventions is to achieve a change of environment for the pregnant woman, which may affect the regulation of body mass index, maintenance of gestational weight, behavioral changes, attitudes, nutritional adjustments, physical activity and reduced risk of complications in the mother and the child.

AbstractObjectiveTo investigate the associations between obesity and self-rated health and psychological well-being in Spanish women.DesignCross-sectional study. Three dependent variables were defined: self-rated health; self-declared diagnosis of psychiatric disorders or use of psychiatric drugs; and General Health Questionnaire-12 (GHQ-12) score. A set of variables (sociodemographic, morbidity and lifestyle) were used to adjust for possible confounding effects.SettingThe National Health Survey was conducted in Spain in 2006.SubjectsA total of 15 099 women aged ≥18 years. Participants were classified into groups according to their BMI.ResultsIn all, 55·4 % of the women had normal weight, 29·4 % were overweight and 15·2 % were obese. Self-perception of poor health in obese women was 57·8 %, a significantly higher value than in women of normal weight (28·8 %). Prevalence of psychiatric disease was 35·5 % in obese women and 18·9 % in women of normal weight. In multivariate analysis, obese women had 34 % higher odds of declaring poor self-perception of health (OR = 1·34; 95 % CI 1·12, 1·61), 18 % higher odds of self-reporting psychiatric disease (OR = 1·18; 95 % CI 1·02, 1·38) and 26 % higher odds (OR = 1·26; 95 % CI 1·02, 1·55) of having an abnormal outcome (≥3) on the GHQ-12 than women of normal weight.ConclusionsThe present study highlights that obese Spanish women have worse self-rated health and psychological health than those with normal weight. These aspects are relevant because of the growing importance placed on the functionality of patients and their mental health within the obesity epidemic.

Full textAbstract:
Lactation contributes to the recovery of the mother after pregnancy and can affect many aspects of maternal health later in life. The short-term benefits of breastfeeding are associated with faster postpartum psychological and emotional recovery. In the long term, lactation reduces the risk of breast, ovarian and endometrial cancer, as well as a number of other diseases, more if exclusive breastfeeding continues for six months or more. Inappropriate nutrition of a nursing mother is one of the most destructive factors for her health. It is also important to remember that the amount of milk depends on the frequency of breastfeeding, and there is no evidence for foods, herbs or medications to prolong lactation or increase milk volume. A varied, balanced diet, including natural and specialized foods for nursing mothers, as well as dietary supplements, sources of vitamins and minerals, can ensure that the mother is consuming enough nutrients for both herself and her baby.

Full textAbstract:
The single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) rs3808607, rs2072183, rs2032582, and rs1761667 are associated with coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10) bioavailability in women after long-term CoQ10 supplementation. However, the beneficial aspects of the association between these SNPs and CoQ10 supplementation remain unknown. We investigated their relationship using the subjective quality of life score SF-36 by reanalyzing previous data from 92 study participants who were receiving ubiquinol (a reduced form of CoQ10) supplementation for 1 year. Two-way repeated-measures analysis of variance revealed a significant interaction between rs1761667 and the SF-36 scores of role physical (p = 0.016) and mental health (p = 0.017) in women. Subgrouping of participants based on the above four SNPs revealed significant interactions between these SNPs and the SF-36 scores of general health (p = 0.045), role emotional (p = 0.008), and mental health (p = 0.019) and increased serum CoQ10 levels (p = 0.008), suggesting that the benefits of CoQ10 supplementation, especially in terms of psychological parameters, are genotype-dependent in women. However, significant interactions were not observed in men. Therefore, inclusion of SNP subgrouping information in clinical trials of CoQ10 supplementation may provide conclusive evidence supporting other beneficial health effects exerted by the association between these SNPs and CoQ10 on women.

AbstractObjectivePerceptions that fruit and vegetables are expensive have been found to be associated with lower consumption of fruit and vegetables among disadvantaged women; however, the determinants of these perceptions are relatively unknown. The purpose of the current paper is to examine whether perceived availability and quality of fruit and vegetables, and social support for healthy eating, are associated with perceptions of fruit and vegetable affordability among women residing in disadvantaged neighbourhoods.DesignCross-sectional self-report survey.SettingThe study was conducted in Melbourne, Australia.SubjectsAn Australian sample of 4131 women, aged 18–45 years, residing in neighbourhoods ranked in the lowest Victorian tertile of relative disadvantage by the Australian Bureau of Statistics, an index that considers aspects of disadvantage such as residents’ income, education, motor vehicle access and employment.ResultsResults showed that irrespective of education, income and other key covariates, women who perceived poor availability and quality of fruit and vegetables in their local neighbourhood were more likely to perceive fruit and vegetables as expensive.ConclusionsOur results suggest that perceptions of fruit and vegetable affordability are not driven exclusively by lack of financial or knowledge-related resources, but also by women's psychological response and interpretation of their local nutrition environment.

Full textAbstract:
(1) Background: Weight bias (WB) is an implicit psychological construct that can influence attitudes, beliefs, body experience, and evaluation of specific psychopathology relationships. Sexual orientation has played a crucial role in developing and maintaining psychiatric conditions linked to body evaluation, but few studies have evaluated possible connected biases. Thus, the paper aims to assess potential relationships between sexual orientation and WB, looking at potential roles in specific psychopathology; (2) Methods: A total of 836 cisgender subjects participated in an online survey, aged between 18 and 42 years old. Two specific aspects of WB were evaluated with validated scales about beliefs about obese people and fat phobia. Demographic variables, as well as depression and eating concerns were evaluated; (3) Results: Gay men and bisexual women showed higher levels of fat phobia, depression, and eating concerns. Regression analysis showed that sexual orientation significantly predicted fat phobia (p < 0.001) and beliefs about obese people (p = 0.014); (4) Conclusions: This study confirms the vulnerability of gay men and bisexual women to cognitive bias about their own bodies, showing a potential vulnerability about body and weight concerns.

Qualitative Sociology Review 9, no. 3 (July 31, 2013): 74–95. http://dx.doi.org/10.18778/1733-8077.9.3.05.
Full textAbstract:
Breastfeeding is an important source of nutrition and sustenance for infants and toddlers, and has also been linked to several aspects of emotional, physiological, and psychological developments. Benefits of breastfeeding include lower morbidity and mortality rates in infants, appropriate nutrition for early physiological development, and improved immune system development. Some studies also suggest it may enhance cognitive development and reduce the risk of diabetes. These health benefits positively influence the physiological status of the infant throughout his or her early childhood and adolescence. The World Health Organization (WHO) recommends that breastfeeding be initiated immediately following birth and continued until the infant is at least 6 months of age. However, according to the UNICEF report, between 2000-2007 in Qatar, only 12% of babies under 6 months were exclusively breastfed. Funded by the QNRP (Qatar Undergraduate Research Experience Program), the goal of this exploratory qualitative study was to find ways to effectively promote breastfeeding practices among Qatari women by investigating factors affecting the ways in which Qatari women (national and nonnational Arab women) make decisions to engage in breastfeeding practices and their overall knowledge of breastfeeding. Purposive sampling was used to recruit 32 Arab mothers as research participants and individual in-depth, semi-structured interviews were conducted with each participant. Results showed that professional support from doctors and nurses, social support from parents and spouse, cultural and religious values, economic ability work restrictions, time, as well as availability of help and care at home, personal challenges, such as perceptions of pain, body image, and body changes, were some of the major factors in making decisions to breastfeed or not.

Full textAbstract:
Functional hypothalamic amenorrhea (FHA) is a very common condition affecting women of procreative age. There are many reasons for this disorder, including a low availability of energy in the diet, low micro- and macronutrient intake, overly intensive physical activity, disturbed regeneration processes, sleep disorders, stress, and psychological disorders. The main determinant is long-term stress and an inability to handle the effects of that stress. FHA is a very complex disorder and often goes undiagnosed. Moreover, therapeutic interventions do not address all the causes of the disorder, which could have implications for women’s health. As shown by scientific reports, this condition can be reversed by modifying its causes. This review of the literature aims to update the current knowledge of functional hypothalamic amenorrhea and underscores the complexity of the disorder, with particular emphasis on the nutritional aspects and potential interventions for restoring balance.

Aim - to study the influence of medical and social risk factors on the psychoemotional state and selfesteem of female patients of reproductive age with tuberculosis of the respiratory system. Material and methods. The main group consisted of 93 women aged 18-44 with tuberculosis of the respiratory system who received treatment in one of the anti-tuberculosis institutions of the Nizhny Novgorod region in 2013. The comparison group consisted of 82 almost healthy women of the corresponding age. To assess the psychoemotional state, we carried out a survey using the SAM test method (state of health, activity, mood); to evaluate personality traits - the test «Self-assessment of the personality» by O.I. Motkov. The questionnaire included additional questions of medical and social nature. Results. It was proven that the presence of unfavorable medical and social risk factors in this category of patients causes a decrease in self-evaluation of the positive aspects of the personality, and has a negative impact on the psychoemotional state of patients, causing poor health (lowest evaluated), low activity, bad mood. In the course of long-term treatment, women feel tired and exhausted. Among the medical and social risk factors that have adverse impact on the psychoemotional state and self-esteem of women, the following factors should be highlighted: low level of education, poor financial situation, lack of awareness about prophylaxis of tuberculosis, intense interpersonal relationships in the family, frequent exposure to stress and rueful feelings, irregularity of the prophylactic chest X-ray examinations, violation of the work-rest regime, dietary regimen and quality of nutrition, the history of tubercular contact and incarceration. Conclusion. The results of the research demonstrate the need for developing and implementation of measures of providing psychological assistance to the female patients of reproductive age with active tuberculosis of the respiratory system, as well as new approaches to the prevention of this disease, based on established psychological risk factors for the emergence of tuberculous process and its recurrence.

Full textAbstract:
Women show an increased risk of cognitive impairment and emotional disorders, such as anxiety and depression, when approaching menopause. Data on risk and protection factors have yielded robust evidence on the effects of lifestyle factors, such as diet, in preserving emotional and cognitive functioning. This review focused on the effects of omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (n-3 PUFA) on anxiety, depression, and cognition during the menopausal transition. This systematic review considered all articles published until 31 December 2021, and the search was performed on two databases, PubMed and Scopus. The fields of interest were “menopause”, “n-3 PUFA” and “emotional and cognitive aspects”. Out of the 361 articles found on PubMed and 283 on Scopus, 17 met inclusion criteria. They encompassed 11 human and 6 animal studies. Most studies reported relieved depressive symptoms in relation to n-3 PUFA intake. While controversial results were found on anxiety and cognition in humans, n-3 PUFA consistently reduced anxiety symptoms and improved cognition in animal studies. Taken together, n-3 PUFA intake shows beneficial effects on emotional and cognitive behaviours during menopause transition. However, further investigations could increase knowledge about the effectiveness of n-3 PUFA on psychological well-being in this delicate period of feminine life.

The cumulative hazard function was estimated by complementary log–log transformation models, which allowed the ensuing estimation of early breast-feeding cessation rates in different age groups and the ratio of rates of weaning between women exposed and not exposed to violence.SettingFive large public primary health-care facilities of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.SubjectsThe sample comprised 811 randomly selected mothers of children under 5 months of age who were waiting to be consulted.ResultsSPVP is an independent risk factor of cessation of EBF since, after controlling for socio-economic, demographic, reproductive and lifestyle variables, women exposed to violence presented an incidence density that was 31 % higher than those who were not exposed (hazard ratio = 1·30, 95 % CI 1·01, 1·69).ConclusionsThe findings corroborate the hypothesis that SPVP is an important risk factor for EBF. This indicates the need for incentives to adequately train health-care personnel in dealing with lactating women in order to gain a broader view of breast-feeding beyond the biological aspects of lactation, including the maternal psychological dimension.

The health problem of women towards elderly is menopause syndrome starting from 40 to 45 years old and it needs attention. It is estimated that one-third of a woman's life span will be in age with a hypoestrogen condition. Women will experience various kinds of disorders both physically and psychologically which negatively impact both in the short and long term. Factors that can influence complaints during menopause are physiological factors due to decreased ovarian activity, socio-cultural and psychological factors that underlie women's personality.
This study used a cross sectional approach which aims to learn more about the relationship between anxiety levels with menopausal women's complaints. The research was carried out in the working area of the Tanah Sareal Community Health Center, Central Bogor District, starting from Oktober until November 2020 with a questioner via E-form conducted to 107 respondents. Results: The age of the respondents was dominated by 50-55 years with an elementary and high school education background. In general, respondents are married and some have normal nutritional status and tend to be obese, most of them do not smoke. Bivariate analysis showed that there was a significant relationship between anxiety and menopause complaints. Multivariate analysis confounder test with regression, the variable anxiety was the most closely related to menopausal complaints with p = 0.023 and an OR value of 5.7. It is recommended that Tanah Sereal Puskesmas carry out health promotion to change women's views about menopause as a physiological thing and pay more attention to psychological aspects in providing health services. The results of this study can be taken into consideration in developing a nursing intervention model in the form of more comprehensive health promotion in preventing and overcoming menopausal complaints by involving family members.

Objective. The purpose of this report is to review the obstetric medical, psychological, and nutritional aspects and outcome of the women and offspring enrolled in the Maternal Phenylketonuria Study, which was established to assess the efficacy of a phenylalanine (Phe)-restricted diet in preventing the morbidity associated with this disorder. Methods. A total of 382 women with hyperphenylalaninemia (HPA) were enrolled in the study and completed 572 pregnancies. Outcome measures were analyzed with χ2, Fisher exact text, analysis of variance, t test, Wilcoxon nonparametric test, and multiple logistic regression. Outcome measures were stratified according to maternal HPA classification and the time when dietary control was achieved. Results. Optimal birth outcomes occurred when maternal blood Phe levels between 120 and 360 μmol/L were achieved by 8 to 10 weeks of gestation and maintained throughout pregnancy (trimester averages of 600 μmol/L). Mothers with mild HPA achieved similar birth outcomes as mothers who were in control preconceptually and those in control by 8 to 10 weeks of pregnancy. Conclusions. Before conception, counseling and early entrance into a prenatal care program is essential in achieving optimal fetal outcome in women with HPA. The achievement of pre- and periconceptional dietary control with a Phe-restricted diet significantly decreased morbidity in the offspring of women with HPA.

ABSTRACT BACKGROUND: Inflammatory bowel disease encompasses pathological entities, the main being Crohn’s disease and ulcerative rectocolitis. Both are characterized by chronic inflammation of the intestine. It affects young people of active age, compromising the situation of those patients, especially their quality of life, experiencing a strong deterioration in their clinical condition, from physical to social and emotional aspects. OBJECTIVE: Evaluate the quality of life of patients assisted in the multidisciplinary reference outpatient clinic for the treatment of inflammatory bowel diseases, through sociodemographic data and specific questionnaires on the disease, evaluating the intestinal and systemic symptoms and the social and emotional aspects. Make a comparison between the two scales used to obtain the data. METHODS: A cross-sectional study was carried out in which patients diagnosed with inflammatory bowel disease were evaluated and observed at a reference outpatient clinic for treatment from May 2017 through December 2018. The participants responded to the Socio-demographic and Clinical Protocol, the SF-36 general quality of life questionnaire and the specific Inflammatory Bowel Disease questionnaire, in addition the correlation between the two scales was performed using Pearson’s Correlation (metric scale), which data were analyzed by means of descriptive statistics and the significance level adopted was 5% (P≤0.05). The population studied consisted of 71 patients, excluding pregnant or nursing women and patients under 18 years of age. RESULTS: Seventy-one patients participated in the study, with an average age of 46.5 years and standard deviation of ±13.8; 45 patients had Crohn’s disease and 26 were diagnosed with ulcerative rectocolitis; 73.2% were women; 64.8% married; 8.4%, smokers; 50.7% reported practising some type of physical activity. A good distribution of patients was observed between the domains of each questionnaire; no low scores were found for quality of life, and systemic symptoms and emotional aspects were those with the lowest scores among the parameters of the Inflammatory Bowel Disease Questionnaire; physical (40.6±44.4) and emotional aspects (49.5±46.0) had lower scores among the Short Form-36 domains. The correlation between the two questionnaires proved to be significant. CONCLUSION: The clinical profile of the patients followed the characteristics of distribution and prevalence of these diseases. The impact of diseases on quality of life was observed in several aspects, especially those related to psychological components. Multidisciplinary follow-up, as well as psychological, social, nutritional and educational support should be considered important determinants to maintain or improve the quality of life of these patients.

The aim of reproductive and child health program of government of India is to get a healthy child from a healthy mother. The woman is considered as one of the most essential factors for the continuity of the human race. Garbhini paricharya (Antenatal Care) means all round care of the pregnant women. According to modern science, antenatal care is a systemic supervision of the pregnant women. It should be started from confirmation of pregnancy to the delivery. During Garbhavastha (pregnancy), she experiences lots of anatomical as well as physiological changes at the level of Dosha (body humors), Dhatu (Body tissues) and Mala (body waste products). During pregnancy women experiences features like edema, pallor, heartburn, vomiting, constipation, weakness, increase in weight and abdominal fundal height, etc such changes though physiological may turn in to pathology, so prevention of these must so she has to take a range of medicine. These changes are nothing but maternal adaptation to the increasing demand of the growing foetus. The Growth and development of foetus requires more nutrition from mother. This causes increased workload on the maternal Dhatus (Body tissues), so she needs extra nutrition during Garbhavastha (Pregnancy). Now a days due to change in life style i.e. sedentary and increased stress, strain due to this has increased incidence of pregnancy complications, abnormal labor that leads to surgical incidence in conducting delivery. Aim of Garbhini paricharya (Antenatal care) is to develop all the Dhatus (Body tissues) of the pregnant women and foetus and decreases adverse outcome of pregnancy. Ancient Indian physicians were very much aware of this fact and various diet recipes and regimens have elaborately mentioned in our Samhitas (Ayurvedic Texts) under the heading of Garbhini paricharya (Anti natal care). According to all acharyas the commonly used drugs in garbhini paricharya (Antenatal care) are brumhana (nourishing), Madhura (sweet), Snigdha (unctuous) these drugs help in achieving the good health, energy, strength, complexion of the child. Ayurveda has suggested a very good protocol Masanumasika Garbhini Paricharya (month wise antenatal care) i.e. Ahara (diet), Vihara (lifestyle), Vichara (psychological aspect) to be followed during pregnancy with respect to each month. This article describes an Ayurveda perspective of Ahara- Vihara (Diet and Regimen) W.S.R to Masanumasika Garbini Paricharya (month wise antenatal care).

The demographic situation in Ukraine indicates a deep demographic crisis. Although most couples want to have children, they often postpone this event to a later reproductive period. But no doubt every couple wants to have a healthy baby. An important measure to help women conceive and bear a healthy child is effective pre-pregnancy training to maintain and rehabilitate the reproductive health of the couple, with a special focus on preventing possible complications at the planning stage of pregnancy. Among the main factors influencing the health of the population, WHO identifies lifestyle. Therefore, already at the stage of planning a pregnancy, the important point is to give up bad habits, physical activity, nutrition and effective organization of sexual life. Nutritional deficiency of vitamins and traditional seasonality of nutrition in Ukraine often do not allow to ensure a full micronutrient status in the body of future parents, especially in the winter3spring period of the year. Therefore, the use of multivitamin complexes, including folic acid, is important for the people of Ukraine, both during pre-pregnancy preparation and during pregnancy, and then during lactation. In order to eliminate any pathology that may harm the expectant mother and her child, the couple must be rationally examined and rehabilitated during pre-pregnancy preparation. Also, expectant parents should avoid any harmful effects on their body, both at work and at home. Secondary prevention of morbidity and mortality of mother and child is early prenatal diagnosis, which is now actively developing in the world and in Ukraine. An equally important aspect of antenatal protection of the fetus is the formation of the psychological health of the future person. Therefore, the introduction of physiopsychoprophylactic training of each couple for the birth of a child with the involvement of perinatal psychologists is extremely important in modern conditions. No conflict of interest was declared by the authors. Key words: antenatal care of the fetus, pre-pregnancy training, primary and secondary prevention of congenital malformations, bad habits, pregnancy, fetal alcohol syndrome, nutrition during pregnancy, sex during pregnancy, perinatal fetal psychology.

BackgroundBreast milk is the natural and most physiological nutrition for a child from the first days of life. The benefits of breastfeeding are numerous, including psychological aspects. However, some women with rheumatic diseases are afraid that their disease or therapy is not compatible with breastfeeding.ObjectivesTo describe frequency, duration and reasons for stopping lactation in women with AS, to compare the activity of AS in women with and without lactation.Methods44 women with confirmed AS (modified New York criteria, 1984) were followed within 1 year after childbirth. Visits were carried out in 1, 6 and 12 months after delivery. The average age of patients was 32,5 ± 5,8 years, the duration of the disease was 149,0 ± 96,3 months. BASDAI at 1, 6 and 12 months after giving birth was: 2,4 [1,4; 4,2]; 2,6 [1,4; 4,4]; 2,7 [1,5; 4,1], respectively. ASDAS-CPR was: 2,0 [1,2; 2,7]; 1,9 [1,4; 2,5]; 1,7[1,3; 2,3], respectively.ResultsLactation was established in 41 women (93,2%), duration – 10 [4; 12] months; in 17 patients (41,5%) lactation persisted for 12 months. Lactation was unreasonably medically suppressed in 3 women in an obstetric unit due to therapy of AS (sulfasalazine – 2, certolizumab pegol – 1); in 1 woman lactation was not established for organizational reasons. Lactation lasted less than 6 months in 16 patients (39%), 13 of them had a natural attenuation of lactation, and in 3 cases, drug-induced suppression of lactation was carried out on the recommendation of pediatricians in connection with onset of AS therapy (adalimumab).During lactation, 51,2%, 74,1% and 88,2% of women received nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs for 1, 6 and 12 months after delivery, respectively; adherence to NSAID therapy did not differ in women with and without lactation. TNF-α inhibitors (certolizumab pegol) were received by 4 women (7,3%), while the need for iTNF-α was in 13 patients (not received due to medicine unavailability).In women who retained lactation, the severity of back pain was: 3,0 [2,0; 6,0], 3,0 [2,0; 5,0] and 3,0 [2,0; 4,5] according to NRS (numerical rating scale) after 1, 6 and 12 months since delivery, respectively; severity of night pain - 3,0 [2,0; 5,0], 3,0 [2,0; 5,0] and 2,0 [2,0; 4,0] according to NRS, respectively. BASDAI activity at 1, 6 and 12 months after delivery was 2,3 [1,0; 4,2], 2,1 [1,4; 4,1] and 2,2 [1,6; 2,8], respectively. Activity on ASDAScrp was 1,9 [1,2; 2,7], 1,6 [1,4; 2,6] and 1,6 [1,3; 1,7], respectively. CRP level was 3,4 [1,9; 8,2], 4,5 [2,0; 12,5] and 2,0 [0,8; 5,6] mg/l, respectively. The severity of back pain, BASDAI and ASDAS values of CRP did not differ in women with and without lactation.Women with high AS activity (BASDAI≥4) maintained lactation at 1, 6 and 12 months after delivery in 84,6%, 50% and 8,3%, respectively; while patients with low activity did it in 93,6%, 66,7% and 51,6%, respectively (p < 0,05 12 months after delivery).ConclusionThe vast majority of women with AS are set up for lactation. High AS activity becomes a risk factor for termination of lactation more than 6 months after delivery. It is necessary to conduct training for obstetricians-gynecologists and pediatricians on issues related to medicine capabilities during lactation, in order to exclude unjustified cancellation of medicines compatible with breastfeeding.References[1]N.

The article deals with the modern problem of developing the endurance of girls aged16–17 years by means of fitness, the feasibility of using fitness as a modern type of physical activity.Endurance is one of the most important physical qualities needed in the rapidly changing realities ofmodern life-in physical and psychological aspects. Endurance is a multifunctional property of thehuman body and integrates a large number of processes that occur at various levels: from the cellularto the whole organism. The leading role in the manifestation of endurance belongs to the factors ofenergy metabolism and the vegetative systems that provide it, namely, the cardiovascular, respiratory,and Central nervous system. Endurance training has a beneficial effect on a person”s mental stability.It educates moral and volitional qualities, and especially forms patience and the preservation ofpsychological stability to the effects of external factors. In the modern world, these advantagesare especially important, because life activity in conditions of constant stress, the requirementsof accelerated adaptation, reaction, and the influence of external stimuli becomes difficult for aperson, sometimes unbearable and leads to” emotional burnout “and Manager”s syndrome”. Thehealth of the nation and future generations is largely determined by the health of women.

Sixty women aged between 30 and 55 years, having hysterectomy for benign conditions, were prospectively studied to investigate psychological adjustment to operation, and to explore social, psychological and physical factors associated with psychological outcome. A further 30 women were included for prospective research on psychological outcome. Investigations took place within two weeks of operation and after four months and 14 months. The findings indicated a high prevalence of pre-operative psychological morbidity (55%), which reduced to 31.7% afterwards. There was no evidence that hysterectomy led to a greater psychological distress. The principal risk factors of poor psychological outcome were the previous scores on the mental health measures and personality inventory. Involvement in the research process did not appear to affect psychological outcome.

One of the main markers of socially unfavorable pregnancy is anthropometric indicators of newborns. They reflect not only the narrow medical problems of complicated gestation but also social problems in general, the quality and access to the medical care. The objective: to determine the risk factors for fetal macrosomia in pregnancy with high levels of psychosocial stress. Materials and methods. The course of pregnancy and childbirth, demographic and medical risk factors for a fetal macrosomia were analyzed in 140 pregnant women with different levels of psychosocial stress. They were divided into 2 groups: 1 group (main) – 56 women-forced migrants from Luhansk and Donetsk regions, 2 group – 84 women with low and moderate level stress according to the questionnaires and psychological tests (L. Reeder, Spielberg–Khanin scale). Results. Gestational diabetes was the main reason for the birth of heavy children in both groups. Women–forced migrants had late manifestation of impaired tolerance to carbohydrates and a higher frequency of pathological weight gain. Male neonates are at risk for macrosomia. Childbirth in women with macrosomia is accompanied by a high frequency of complications and abnormal births. Conclusions. The frequency of births of macrosomic children in women - forced migrants is higher than in women at low risk of psychosocial stress. Risk factors in this group of pregnants include: the level of stress and behavioral responses to stress, impaired carbohydrate tolerance due to gestational diabetes, abnormal weight gain due to malnutrition and male sex of the fetus. Keywords: macrosomia, pregnancy, childbirth, women–forced migrants psychosocial stress, gestational diabetes, weight gain.

Psychologists, such as Freud, Piaget, and Kohlberg, have indicated that there are sex differences in moral reasoning of men and women. Generally men's moral reasoning is more advanced than that of women. This is attributed to various factors such as culture and over-all child-rearing practices which include greater expectation of men than of women. Despite this conclusion, it is doubtful whether some assessments of women's moral reasoning are accurate and fair.

Full textAbstract:
Les femmes de la classe ouvrière : survie psychologique et sociale. Dans ce texte, l’auteur se propose d’étudier certains aspects du discours produit autour des femmes de la classe ouvrière, dans un contexte, la période d’après-guerre, où la notion de classe ouvrière, à la fois surestimée, dénigrée et crainte, pose problème. Dans ces discours et ces pratiques, les femmes ont une place centrale en tant que mères ayant à leur charge la production de citoyens dans un ordre démocratique bourgeois en extension. En effet, le discours de la mobilité sociale, de l’égalité des chances transforme en pathologie tout échec d’entrer dans la classe moyenne définie comme normale. Il s’agit donc de “normaliser” les groupes potentiellement pathologiques et entre autres les mères de la classe ouvrière dont la capacité à exercer la maternité doit être mise sous surveillance. Inadéquates, ne sont-elles pas responsables d’un large éventail de maux sociaux (criminalité, délinquance...) ? Ce modèle normatif et normalisant, ce nouveau mode de régulation sociale fait l’impasse sur les conséquences de l’oppression, et sur les réalités psychologiques qui découlent de la souffrance vécue, d’une subjectivité construite à travers des “vérités” projetées sur 1’ ’’autre”. L’auteur a mené une recherche auprès de femmes d’origine ouvrière ayant eu accès à l’Université pour comprendre la spécificité de ce groupe et les mécanismes de défense mis en place pour vivre et survivre l’oppression.
