The prevalence of anemia in pregnant women is still high (69,7%). Low iron intake and high intake of iron inhibitors may have a role to the anemia prevalence in pregnant women. However, the contibution of iron inhibitors on anemia prevalence is still unknown. Objective : The study was conducted to investigate the relationship between intakes of iron inhibitors and hemoglobin level of pregnant women. Methods: This cross sectional study was conducted in Muara Enim regency. Subjects of this study were 244 pregnant women with 20-28th weeks of gestation. Iron and iron-inhibitor intake were collected by trained interviewers using food frequency questionnaires. Socioeconomic data were also collected using structured questionnaires. Hemoglobin concentration of pregnant women was measured by using cyamet henoglobin method at the start of the study. Data analysis was done using STATA sofware. Result: About thirty seven present (37,29%) of pregnant women in this population were anemic. In multiple linear regression models, intake of iron, calcium and tannin were significantly associated with hemoglobin concentration ( p< 0,05). Every 1 mg of iron intake was associated with 0,052 gr/dl increase in Hemoglobin concentration. On the other hand, every 1 mg of calcium intake and every 1 gr of tannin intake were associated with 0,00687 gr/dl and 0,123 gr/dl decrease in hemoglobin concentration. Pregnant women with a high iron intake have a higher hemoglobin concentration. In contrast, pregnant women with a high intake of tannin and calcium have a lower hemoglobin concentration.

In pregnancy a healthy dietary behavior is beneficial for the expecting mother and her fetus. Anemia is one of the most common nutritional deficiency disorders that can be prevented through promoting dietary behavior. The aim of this study is to examine the dietary behavior of pregnant woman with anemia in Bangladesh. A descriptive cross-sectional study design was applied. By using G* Power, 135 pregnant women were purposively recruited from MMCH, Dhaka. Data was analyzed by using descriptive statistics and inferential statistics, independent t-test and one way ANOVA. Findings showed the mean age of the participants was 25 (SD=4.96) years. Multi gravida was 55.6% and 68.1% reported their medium healthy condition. The average dietary behavior reported 56.03 (SD=6.15) and 67.4% participants’ hemoglobin concentration were within 10-10.9 g/dl. In bivariate analysis, finding showed that anemia has significantly related with age (F = 12.88, p < 001), level of education (F = 2.92, p = .036), income (r = 0.19, p = .027), gravida (F = 5.63, p = .004) health condition (F = 10.89, p < 001). The result of dietary behaviors showed that anemia has positively correlated (r = 0.21, p = .017) with dietary behavior. Dietary behavior is related with some factors, age, low level education, grand multi and primiparous, poor health condition found less hemoglobin concentration indicate as less dietary intake. Monthly income and dietary behavior impact in increasing Hemoglobin concentration. In this regards, maternal nurses might play a vital role for providing nursing intervention to improve pregnant women’s dietary behavior. Asian J. Med. Biol. Res. December 2020, 6(4): 674-682

Dietary diversity and quantity are important for pregnant women, particularly anemic pregnant women. This study aimed to analyze the association between dietary quantity and diversity among anemic pregnant women. This cross-sectional study was conducted in 2017 at Madura Island, Indonesia, and involved 152 anemic pregnant women. Hemoglobin concentration was analyzed by the cyanmethemoglobin method. Dietary quantity was measured by the 2 × 24 h recall. Dietary diversity was determined by Minimum Dietary Diversity for Women of Reproductive Age (MDD-W). Spearman’s rank association was performed to analyze the association between dietary diversity and quantity. The median of hemoglobin concentration was 10.1 g/dL, and 57.2% pregnant women had mild anemia. Most of the pregnant women had low adequacy levels of energy and macro- and micronutrients (except for iron). More than half (57.9%) of anemic pregnant women had reached minimum dietary diversity. Family size (p=0.048) and gestational age (p=0.004) had negative associations with dietary diversity. Dietary diversity had positive associations with energy (p=0.029), protein (p=0.003), vitamin A (p=0.001), vitamin C (p=0.004), and zinc (p=0.015) adequacy levels. Dietary diversity had no significant association with calcium (p=0.078) and iron adequacy level (p=0.206). High prevalence of mild and moderate anemia was found among pregnant women in their third trimester. Anemic pregnant women already consumed food with minimum dietary diversity but did not meet dietary quantity. Increasing dietary quantity is a priority for anemic pregnant women.

Asymptomatic malaria and anemia during pregnancy increase the risk of negative birth outcomes. This cross-sectional study investigated the prevalence and correlates of asymptomatic malaria and anemia during first antenatal care (ANC) visit among pregnant women in a rural district, Tanzania. HIV-uninfected pregnant women without symptoms of malaria (n = 819) attending their first ANC at Kibiti Health Centre were enrolled from February 2017 to February 2018. Asymptomatic malaria was detected by malaria rapid-diagnostic tests (mRDT) and real-time PCR. Hemoglobin concentration was determined by HemoCue Hemoglobin 201+. The study outcomes were the prevalence of asymptomatic malaria and anemia (Hemoglobin level <11 g/dL). The overall prevalence of asymptomatic malaria was 36.4% (95% CI: 33.1, 39.8). The monthly prevalence of asymptomatic malaria remained >25% throughout the year, and the highest prevalence (40%) was recorded during the rainy season. Asymptomatic malaria was significantly associated with primigravida, younger maternal age, and anemia. The prevalence of anemia was 68.5% (95% CI: 65.2, 71.6). Asymptomatic malaria, primigravida, younger maternal age and low Body Mass Index were significant predictors of low hemoglobin concentration. We report high prevalence of asymptomatic malaria and anemia among pregnant women on the first ANC visit. Screening of malaria and anemia during the first ANC visit is recommended for targeted interventions.

Abstract Background: We aimed to compare the changes experienced by pregnant women before and during the pandemic regarding fear of childbirth andhow much they were affected by factors such as age, education level, and planned delivery type.Materials and Methods: This cross-sectional study comparedthe pre-pandemic pregnant group (July 2019 and December 2019) and the pandemic group (November 2020 and May 2021) of patients atKütahya Health Sciences University Evliya Çelebi Training and Research Hospital. A total of 696 pregnant womenin their second trimesterwere included in the study. All of them were literate andvoluntarily agreed to participate in the study. Data were collected with the Wijma Delivery Expectancy/Experience Questionnaire (WDEQ-A), and the outpatient doctor asked the questions face-to-face.Results: The mean age of the pregnant women participating in the study was 31.6±6.8 years. While the total Wijma score was 62.1±25.1 in the pre-pandemic group, it was 61.3±26.4 in the pandemic group, and there was no significant difference between the two groups (p=0.738).While 25.7% (n=179) of all participants had a normal fear of childbirth, 22% (n=153) had a mild fear of childbirth, 27% (n=188) had a moderate fear of childbirth, and 25.3% (n=176) had a severe fear of childbirth (Wijma score of 85 and above). When the pre-pandemic and the pandemic period were compared, the fear of childbirth wasunchanged in pregnant women at all education levels (p=0.079, p=0.957, p=0.626, p=0.539, p=0.202).Conclusion: When the pre-pandemic and pandemic periods are compared, it is seen that the fear of childbirth didnot change within each education level. Informing pregnant women about the effects of COVID-19 during the pandemic period may be effective in reducing fear of childbirth and reducing the numberof cesarean sections due to fear of birth.

Part Time

Background: Future health-care professionals face stress both during education and in later professional life. Next to educational trainings, many students are forced to assume part-time employment. Objective: Applying the Job Demands-Resources Model to the educational context, we investigate which role part-time employment plays next to health-care professional students’ education-specific demands and resources in the prediction of perceived stress. Method: In this cross-sectional study, data from N = 161 health-care students were analysed, testing moderation models. Results: Education-specific demands were associated with higher and education-specific resources with lower amounts of perceived stress. Part-time employment functioned as moderator, i.e. demands were less associated with stress experiences in students who were employed part-time. Conclusion: Identifying part-time employment as a resource rather than a demand illustrates the need to understand students’ individual influences on stress. Both educators and students will benefit from reflecting these resources to support students’ stress management.
