Telephonic intervention to combat non-adherence to oral iron-folic acid supplementation in pregnancy: A randomized controlled trial
CONCLUSION: In addition to improving adherence to oral IFAS, telephonic intervention mitigates side effects and enhances hemoglobin in anemic pregnant women. The increase in adherence was threefold in the experimental group compared to a marginal rise in the control group. This study recommends the implementation of a telephonic intervention to promote adherence to oral IFAS among anemic pregnant women.PMID:37736306 | PMC:PMC10509657 | DOI:10.1016/j.eurox.2023.100235

Plasticity of gastrointestinal vagal afferents in terms of feeding-related physiology and pathophysiology
J Physiol. 2023 Sep 22. doi: 10.1113/JP284075. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTGastrointestinal vagal afferents play an important role in communicating food related information from the gut to the brain. This information initiates vago-vagal reflexes essential for gut functions, including gut motility and secretions. These afferents also play a role in energy homeostasis, signalling the arrival, amount and nutrient composition of a meal to the central nervous system where it is processed ultimately leading to termination of a meal. Vagal afferent responses to food related stimuli demonstrate a high degree of plasticity, resp...

Antenatal corticosteroids in specific groups at risk of preterm birth: a systematic review
Conclusions There is a paucity of evidence on ACS for women who have diabetes. ACS therapy may have benefits in women with chorioamnionitis and is probably beneficial in FGR. There is limited direct trial evidence on ACS efficacy in women undergoing planned CS in the late preterm period, though the totality of evidence suggests it is probably beneficial. PROSPERO registration number CRD42021267816.

Military families: the impacts of having a first child during service on military mothers
Conclusions This study provided insight into the impacts of having a first child during military service on servicewomen. Overall, female Army veterans who had their first child during service had poorer outcomes, including leaving service non-voluntarily. However, none of the health or well-being outcomes remained significant after adjusting the results. This study explored a widely under researched population and field of research. Future research should seek to expand on our findings and continue to explore the impacts of having a first child during military service for military mothers.

Predictors of compliance with higher dose omega-3 fatty acid supplementation during pregnancy and implications for the risk of prematurity: exploratory analysis of the ORIP randomised trial
Conclusions Results in compliers were similar to those from intention-to-treat analyses, suggesting that non-compliance was not a major factor in explaining outcomes from the ORIP trial. Trial registration number ACTRN12613001142729.

Non-criteria autoantibodies in antiphospholipid syndrome may be associated with underlying disease activity
ConclusionSystemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is the most commonly associated disease with APS, being present in approximately 35% of cases  [1]. Since the majority of the patient group in our study had APS that was secondary to SLE, non-criteria antibody positivity may be linked to the immunological activity of SLE. Large multicenter studies are necessary to investigate the clinical significance of isolated/combined positivity for criterion/non-criteria aPLs.

Assisted reproductive technology outcomes and management considerations for people with epilepsy
Curr Opin Endocrinol Diabetes Obes. 2023 Sep 22. doi: 10.1097/MED.0000000000000838. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTPURPOSE OF REVIEW: Epilepsy is a common neurologic condition amongst people with reproductive capacity, and assisted reproductive technology (ART) is being increasingly utilized. A recent population-based study described favorable outcomes of ART in this population, but other work shows how fluctuating sex hormones may influence medication concentrations and seizures.RECENT FINDINGS: This review discusses hormonal influences on epilepsy and catamenial epilepsy, considerations regarding fertility in women with e...

Nanoparticles: a breakthrough in COVID-19 prevention, diagnosis and treatment
Arch Med Sci. 2021 Oct 15;19(5):1410-1420. doi: 10.5114/aoms/142103. eCollection 2023.ABSTRACTCoronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is an infectious disease caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), declared a global pandemic by the World Health Organization (WHO). The three key principles in management of the COVID-19 pandemic are prevention, early detection and targeted treatment. Vaccine-based prevention together with early detection has already proven its efficacy in controlling the pandemic. Early detection of infected patients could substantially accelerate the implementation of treatment,...

Relationships of pregnancy and postpartum diet quality with offspring birth weight and weight status through 12  months
CONCLUSIONS: Maternal diet quality during pregnancy (and during postpartum in mothers who breastfed for a longer duration) was inversely related to LGA and weight status indicators from birth through 12 months. Increasing maternal diet quality may have use for promoting healthy infant weight development.PMID:37731285 | DOI:10.1002/oby.23891
