ANEMIC PATIENTS; RELATIONSHIP OF FREQUENCY AND SEVERITY OF IRON DEFICIENCY ANEMIA WITH PRETERM LABOR AND EVENTUAL PERINATAL OUTCOME

Objective: To prove the association of iron deficiency anemia, cystitis, and bacterial vaginosis as risk factors for preterm labor.Methods: This study was an observational case-control study conducted at the Polyclinic and IRD of Obstetrics and Gynecology Sanglah Denpasar General Hospital Center between September and December 2015. The sample selection was done by consecutive sampling with total sample as many as 35 case samples (women with preterm pregnancy) and 35 control samples (women with aterm pregnancy).Results: Pregnant mothers with iron deficiency anemia had 4 fold increased risk of developing preterm labor (OR = 4.04, 95% CI = 1.15 to 14.16, p = 0.023) compared to those without iron deficiency anemia. Pregnant mothers with cystitis had 4 fold increased risk of preterm labor (OR = 4.00, 95% CI = 1.25 to 12.80, p = 0.016) compared to those without cystitis. Pregnant mothers with bacterial vaginosis had 3 fold increased risk of preterm frequency (OR = 3.24, 95% CI = 1.22 to 8.63, p = 0.017) compared to those without bacterial vaginosis.Conclusion: Iron deficiency anemia, cystitis, and bacterial vaginosis increase the risk for developing preterm labor.[Indones J Obstet Gynecol 2017; 5-2: 73-76]Keywords: bacterial vaginosis, cystitis, iron deficiency anemia, preterm labor

Background : Nutritional problems frequently experienced by adolescents is anemia. Anemia is a condition with blood hemoglobin levels were lower than normal as a result of the inability of tissues forming red blood cells in its production in order to maintain hemoglobin levels at normal levels. The prevalence of anemia in women age 15 and older, according to Riset Kesehatan Dasar in 2013 by 22.7%. Objective : The purpose of this study analyze the relationship between nutritional status and the incidence of iron deficiency anemia among high school students in Pakem. Method : This observational study using cross sectional approach, implemented in four high schools in the District of Pakem. The population in this study were students of class X and XI in four high school in Pakem. The independent variables were the nutritional status. The dependent variable is the iron anemia. Hemoglobin levels were measured by the method cyanmethemoglobin, weight was measured with a digital bathroom scales, height measured by microtoise. Data analysis used chi-square statistic. Conclusion : Based on the analysis proves that there is a relationship of nutritional status according to BMI / U with the incidence of iron deficiency anemia in high school in Pakem with p = 0.017.

Background and objective: Febrile Seizure (FS) is the commonest seizure disorder among under 5 children. Iron deficiency is a documented risk factor of FS and as the data about the relationship of iron deficiency with FS among Bangladeshi children is scanty, this study was undertaken to assess the association of Serum Ferritin to simple FS.Materials and Methods: This case control study was conducted at the department of pediatrics of SSMC & Mitford Hospital during 7th May 2011 to 6th January 2012 on consecutive 120 children aged between five months to six years who fulfilled the inclusion criteria were considered as cases. Similar number of age and sex matched children admitted with fever without seizures were taken as controls. All candidates were gone through CBC with RBC indices and serum ferritin and iron deficiency anemia was diagnosed on the basis of mentioned tests.Results: The results showed that majority of the cases were male (66.7%) and most of them were between 13-24 months of age (51.7%). Mean duration of convulsion was less than 5 minutes in 70% of the cases. Level of Hb was low in both the cases and controls but the other RBC indices for anemia like MCV, MCH, MCHC and serum ferritin were significantly lower among the febrile seizures group in comparison to controls. The chi-square test is indicated as a significant difference between two groups and odds ratio is 6.0 which signifies that febrile seizure group were 6.0 times more likely to develop iron deficiency anemia compared to control group.Conclusion: The findings suggest that children with febrile seizure have association with iron deficiency anemia (which is evident by microcytic hypochromic anemia and low serum ferritin level) .This means low serum ferritin and presence of anemia can serve as a risk factor for febrile seizure in children.J Bangladesh Coll Phys Surg 2017; 35(2): 75-79

Control Study

Pregnant women are particularly considered to be the most vulnerable groupbecause of the additional demands that are made on maternal stores during pregnancy. Theiron deficiency anemia is the most common nutritional deficiency problems in females and isresponsible of high maternal death rate in our society. Objectives: To determine the relationshipof frequency and severity of iron deficiency anemia to preterm labor and eventual perinatalout come in anemic patients. Study Design: It was a case control study. Study Setting: InObstetrics and Gynecology Unit-III, Sir Ganga Ram hospital, Lahore from July 2012 to June2013. Methodology: The study was conducted on 200 patients (100 cases and 100 controls)were studied. Cases were patients admitted in labor room with preterm labor and Controlswere females in labor at term at. Convenience sampling was done. On admission relevanthistory taking examination and investigation were done. The data was collected on a Performa.Results: There were 50 patients with anemia amongst the patients with preterm labor. In thecontrol group, 40 patients were suffering from anemia. In the patients with preterm labor themean hemoglobin was 9.83 grams/deciliter. In the control group the mean hemoglobin was10.3gm/dl. (Pregnant women having hemoglobin <10gm/dl are considered to be anemic). Theodds ratio was calculated to be 3.4 and P value was <0.05. Conclusions: Iron deficiencyanemia was associated with increased risk for low birth weight, preterm delivery, and perinatalmortality. The frequency of iron-deficiency anemia was seen in both groups of pregnant women.
