Anemia among Adolescent Girls: Its Association with Protein and Iron Intake

Adolescence is a time of physical and psychological growth as people transition to adulthood, and proper nutrition is essential for this process. Anemia, a condition characterized by a lack of red blood cells or hemoglobin, is the most common health issue among young women. In 2018, the prevalence of anemia was higher in women (27.2%) than in men (20.3%), and particularly high (32%) in the 15-24 age group. The purpose of this study was to investigate the prevalence of anemia among teenage women in a rural area . The study used a cross-sectional design and included 112 middle school female students in Rejang Lebong Regency. The data was collected using survey questionnaire and a semi-quantitative food frequency questionnaire to assess factors such as knowledge, the intake of calorie, protein, vitamin C, and iron. Correlation analysis and multiple linear regression were used to analyze the relations between these variables and anemia status. The correlation analysis showed that knowledge, calorie intake, and vitamin C were not significantly correlated with anemia (p values 0.378, 0.563 and 0.087, respectively). However, there was a significant correlation between iron and protein intake with the occurrence of anemia (p values 0.000 and 0.030).

Causes and Solutions to the Current Dilemma of Chinese Youth Women's Soccer

Chinese teenage women's soccer is often overlooked in China's overall efforts to improve sports literacy and develop soccer talent.

Switching emergency contraceptives to non-prescription status and unwanted pregnancy among adult and teenage women: A long-term European comparative study

Aim: Unwanted pregnancy is an important social issue, not least among teenagers. Emergency contraceptives (EMCs) can prevent from unintended pregnancy, if taken quickly after unprotected sex. This study’s objective was assessing abortion/birth rates among adult and teenage women in Europe before/after an EMC switch to non-prescription status. Methods: National authorities were consulted for EMC consumption data and abortion/live birth statistics. Rates (n=26 countries) in the year before the switch (= year of reference) were compared with rates before/after the change (up to ±15 years). The focus was laid on the European Union and further countries closely related to the European Union. Results: All countries with available data (n=12) experienced a substantial increase of EMC consumption after the switch. On average, abortion rates among women aged 15–49 years were 83% higher 15 years before (compared with the year of reference) and 14% lower 15 years after the switch. Correspondingly, teenage abortion rates were 35% higher 15 years before and 40% lower 15 years after the switch. In 2017, no country had higher teen abortion rates than at time of the switch. Teen birth rates continued decreasing at almost the same rate after the switch as before. Conclusion: An EMC switch to non-prescription status increases EMC use and may contribute reducing unwanted pregnancy among teenage girls.

Comparison of characteristics between adolescent and adult pregnant women who used methamphetamine: a retrospective study in a tertiary hospital

PurposeThis study aims to examine the characteristics of pregnant women who used methamphetamine to determine the differences in characteristics between teenagers (aged under 20 or 20–25 years) and adult women who used methamphetamine during this period.Design/methodology/approachThis retrospective study extracted data from the medical records of obstetric patients who gave birth between 2011 and 2015 in a tertiary hospital in Thailand. All included patients were diagnosed with amphetamine use disorder. Demographic data, history of antenatal care, history of substance use and psychiatric evaluations were recorded.FindingsFour hundred and twelve patients were recruited for analysis. Of these, 194 (53.4%) did not attend regular antenatal care, 326 (92.1%) had unplanned pregnancies and 42 (12.5%) had a history of abortions. Socially, 47 patients (21.7%) reported drug use in their families and 160 (49.5%) reported a history of parental separation. Compared with the adult and 20–25 years groups, the < 20 years group tended to have a lower educational level, have experienced parental separation and had more regular antenatal care.Research limitations/implicationsPregnant teenagers with methamphetamine use had psychosocial difficulties. Physicians should be aware of these psychosocial issues, including education and family planning.Originality/valueThese findings showed that pregnant women who used methamphetamine faced psychosocial difficulties, unplanned pregnancies and inadequate antenatal care. Adult and teenage pregnant women who used methamphetamine differed in some ways. For example, teenage pregnant women tended to be of a lower education level, experienced parental separation and had a history of more frequent antenatal care. Further longitudinal research exploring the outcomes of mothers who used methamphetamine and their children is needed to build on the existing evidence.

One-sixth of women experienced obstructed labor among those delivered at public hospitals in Southern Ethiopia: A multicenter study.

The study aimed to assess the prevalence of obstructed labor and associated factors among women delivered at public hospitals in Southern Ethiopia. Institution-based cross-sectional study was employed among 704 systematically selected postnatal women. The data were collected by the structured and pre-tested interviewer-administered questionnaire and analyzed by Statistical Package for Social Science version 20. Multivariable logistic regression with a 95% confidence level was used to determine the associated factors. Statistical significance was declared at p < 0.05. The prevalence of obstructed labor was 15.8% (95% confidence interval: 13.1-18.5). Age (adjusted odds ratio = 5.23, 95% confidence interval: 2.98-11.12), antenatal care follow-up (adjusted odds ratio = 1.8, 95% confidence interval: 1.10-3.39), duration of labor (adjusted odds ratio = 4.41, 95% confidence interval: 2.56-7.67), and experiencing complications (adjusted odds ratio = 4.21, 95% confidence interval: 2.63-6.98) were significantly associated with obstructed labor. The study revealed that one-sixth of women experienced obstructed labor. Regional health sectors and non-governmental organizations need to collaborate with healthcare providers in providing improved maternal health services with special emphasis on teenage women with optimum and proper follow-up throughout the pregnancy, by early identifying complications during labor and delivery to manage the problem early.

PREVALENCE AND TRIGGERING FACTORS ASSOCIATED WITH UNINTENDED PREGNANCY IN SOUTH ASIA AND SUB-SAHARAN AFRICA: EVIDENCE FROM DEMOGRAPHIC AND HEALTH SURVEY DATA

Unintended pregnancy is a global social health concern among women from developing countries. It plays a significant role in the women's health condition, their children, and their family economy, particularly in South Asia (SA) and Sub-Saharan Africa (SSA). The prime concentration of this study was to explore the prevalence of unintended pregnancy and point out the factors associated with unintended pregnancy in the women from the SA and SSA regions. This study utilized the Demographic and Health Survey (DHS) data of 35 developing countries from the SA and SSA region for analysis purposes. Univariate analysis was conducted to calculate the prevalence, and bivariate and multivariate analyses were applied to explore associated factors of unintended pregnancy. Results revealed that unintended pregnancies accounted for 20.50 % of combined data of the SA and SSA region. There were 17.40% and 25.10% unintended pregnancies found in SA and SSA countries. Binary logistic regression indicated that the age of the respondent (OR=1.28, CI=1.20-1.36) was a highly influential factor for unintended pregnancy in the selected countries. Besides this variable, place of residence, educational level, family size, household head, wealth index, age at first birth, contraceptive method, and current residence with a partner were found to be significant critical factors in determining the risk of unintended pregnancy in both regions. Several intervention programs on reproductive and maternal health care, such as increasing awareness among teenage women from the rural areas, and women with wealthy family backgrounds, are highly recommended to reduce the risk of unintended pregnancy.

Study of fetomaternal outcome of teenage pregnancy in a tertiary care hospital

Background: The objective is to study the fetomaternal outcome in teenage pregnancy at Government Maternity Hospital, S V Medical College, Tirupathi for the study period of 1 year from June 2021 to May 2022. Teenage pregnancy is a worldwide health problem. WHO defined adolescence as the period from 10-19 years? It is a serious health problem in a developing country like India. Teenage pregnancy is associated with high risk of prematurity, low birthweight, preeclampsia and anaemia.Methods: It is a retrospective study conducted in a tertiary care hospital at GMH, SVMC, Tirupathi over a period of 1 year. 1325 teenage pregnant women were included in the study out of 12992 pregnant women admitted for delivery during the study period. Results: Study showed the incidence of teenage pregnancies as 10.1%. Among these teenage pregnant women 87% had anemia, 21.6% had gestational hypertension, 7% had eclampsia, 6% had intrauterine death and malpresentations were noted in 4%. Intrapartum complications noted in the study are preterm labor (41.9%), cephalopelvic disproportion(25.8%), fetal distress(22.4%) and obstructed labor(0.3%). 52 cases were complicated with postpartum hemorrhage, 2 with puerperal sepsis and 6 with retained placenta. 2 cases of maternal deaths occurred due to antepartum eclampsia and pulmonary edema. LSCS rate was 27%, 65.9% had normal vaginal deliveries and 11.9% had instrumental deliveries. Among the total births 57.8% were low birth weight.Conclusions: Teenage pregnancy is associated with increased incidence of anemia, pre-eclampsia, eclampsia, preterm delivery, instrumental delivery, low birth weight and perinatal death. The healthcare provider should consider teenage pregnancy as high risk pregnancy and should emphasise for more number of antenatal visits to identify the risk as early as possible.

Progression of anaemia during antenatal period among South African pregnant women.

Anaemia in pregnancy is a known public health problem in South Africa. Maternal, perinatal morbidity and mortality are known to be associated with anaemia in pregnancy. Very little is known from literature with regards to the progression of anaemia during the antenatal period of pregnancy. To estimate haemoglobin levels, the prevalence and determinants of anaemia at different gestational ages and to show the trend. A retrospective cohort (follow-up) study was conducted using the antenatal clinic register. Prevalence rates of anaemia (haemoglobin < 11 g/dl) at different gestational ages were measured. Factors associated with anaemia were assessed using chi-square test and stepwise multivariate logistic regression analysis. A total of 801 pregnant women were enrolled at the booking visit and followed-up during their antenatal period. The prevalence of anaemia at the booking visit was 37%. The prevalence of anaemia at 20, 26, 32 and 36 weeks of gestation were 36.6%, 39.6%, 39.8% and 29.2% respectively. Binary logistic regression at the booking visit showed that teenage women were 2.5 times more likely to have anaemia (OR=2.5, p=0.005) than older women. Women who booked during the first trimester were 60% less likely to have anaemia (OR= 0.40, P=0.005) at the booking visit and 62% less likely to be anaemic at 36 weeks of gestation (OR=0.38, p=0.013) compared to those who booked late for antenatal care. Prevalence of anaemia during pregnancy was high. Early booking for antenatal care was a predictor for lower rate of anaemia. Thus, health education strategy should be encouraged for early antenatal booking.

The Child Kidnapping and Abuse by Gang-criminals and the Legitimate Custody of Minor to Parents After Rescue and use of Geofencing to Arrest the Absconding Criminals

This paper mainly focuses on the custody of a minor child, abducted and abused by criminals from the place of parental residence. The cases regarding the kidnapping of minor young girls and teenage women are increasing rapidly. The modus operandi of criminals varies from case to case. In some cases criminals torture the abducted minors, rape, and kill them; while in some other cases to escape from law enforcement agencies, they arrange “forced-illegal-fake” marriages under threat of life. In most of the offenses, an organized rich Gang of criminals is tangled and involved. The Gang members are given different responsibilities to perform and commit the crime by the leader of the Gang. They have also the backing of the most effective personalities, who safeguard them in the existing system and such personalities remain effective and hidden. Therefore, the victim and the family do not get justice from any corner. The Gang and the “effective personality” invest huge amounts of money in “red light areas” or the sale of limbs like kidneys, hearts or livers, etc inland or abroad. However, the abductee undergoes a lot of torture and gang rape. Secondly, the authors focus on and stress the need for strong legislation so that criminals are punished when their guilt is proven and also not bailed out for nonbailable offenses. Thirdly and most importantly, the abductee must be handed over to the parents after recovery from the criminal Gang. This paper presents a case study of an abducted school-baby, who has not been handed over to the parents for the last six months. The faults of the legal system in Pakistan require to be overviewed, revamped, and overhauled. The antagonistic behavior of Police and investigating officers is also required to be modified, which adversely affects the merits of the case in courts of law.
