Micro minerals (Fe) are indispensable for every woman, especially during pregnancy. The need for micro minerals (Fe) increases with increasing gestational age. Micro minerals (Fe) are not only important for pregnant women, they are also important for babies in the womb. Deficiency of micro minerals (Fe) can increase the risk of giving birth to babies with low body weight or premature birth and even maternal and infant mortality. If the baby is born with a normal weight, but there is still the possibility of stunting (short children). The purpose of this community service is to increase the knowledge of pregnant women about the importance of consuming micro minerals (Fe) during pregnancy. Knowledge of pregnant women in Sungai Rengit Murni village about the consumption of micro minerals (Fe) can be said to be quite good, reaching 70% of the total number of pregnant women (statement of regional midwives). We hope that as a servant, with this community service program, it is hoped that the knowledge of pregnant women about the importance of consuming micro minerals (Fe) during pregnancy will increase. So that the risk that will occur to the mother and baby is reduced. In addition, the service also supports government programs in reducing maternal problems during pregnancy until delivery.

The objective: to determine the risk factors for the development of ESRD in pregnant women with preeclampsia and anemia. Materials and methods. 97 pregnant women with preeclampsia with iron-deficiency anemia were monitored. The first group included 46 pregnant women with diagnosed ZRD, the second group-51 pregnant women who gave birth to children with normal body weight. Criteria of FGR is to reduce body weight and length of newborn at birth (less than 10 percentile of assessment tables in comparison with due to gestational age), morphological maturity index (a lag of 2 weeks or more from the true gestational age), disproportionate body, the signs of malnutrition and trophic disorders of the skin and mucous membranes. Results. A step-by-step elimination of the factors that contributed the least to the development of ARI in a combination of preeclampsia and anemia was performed. The results of multivariate analysis showed that in General, the following factors had the strongest influence on the development of RR in preeclampsia and anemia: arterial hypertension (RR= 2.055 [95% CI 1.31-3.20]), overweight/obesity (RR=1.646 [95% CI 1.03-2.62]), anemia in the anamnesis (RR=2.591[95% CI 1.56-4.28]),complicated labor in the anamnesis (RR=1.886 [95% CI 1.29-2.74]), habitual miscarriage (RR=1.850 [95% CI 1.21-2.82]), a history of preeclampsia (RR= 1.922 [95% CI 1.31-2.80]), a history of RR (RR=3.502 [CI 2.37-5.16]). Conclusions. The most significant clinical and anamnestic risk factors for the development of RRT are: arterial hypertension, overweight/obesity, anemia in the anamnesis, pre-eclampsia in the anamnesis, complicated labor in the anamnesis, habitual miscarriage, RRT in the anamnesis.

Aim. To evaluate the effects of maternal pre-pregnancy body weight and excessive gestational weight gain (GWG) on the risk of different subtypes of preeclampsia (PE).Methods. A cohort study of 289 pregnant women: 41 with early-onset (less than 34 weeks) preeclampsia (EPE), 76 with late-onset (more than 34 weeks) preeclampsia (LPE) and 172 normotensive women (control). Associations between anthropometric indicators (pre-pregnancy BMI, GWG, fat mass in the 1st, 2nd, 3rd trimesters, on the 2–3rd day after birth) and risk of PE and its subtypes were evaluated.Results. Pre-pregnancy body weight (r = 0.36; р = 0.000) and BMI (r = 0.38; р = 0.000) moderately increased risk of PE. GWG had independent risk of developing PE (r = 0.46; р = 0.000). Women with excessive GWG had an increased risk of PE in normal BMI (RR = 2.2; р = 0.019), in overweigh (RR = 2.7; р = 0.028), in obese (ОР = 5.2; р = 0.000). The risk of developing preeclampsia increased in normal weight with GWG more than 500 g per week in the 2nd trimester (р = 0.000) and more than 400 g per week in the 3d trimester (р = 0.000), total GWG more than 16.5 kg increased risk of preeclampsia in 3.4-fold (ОР = 3.4; р = 0.001). Overweight and obesity had an increased risk of late-onset preeclampsia (RR = 4.9; р = 0.000). No association was found for early-onset preeclampsia (p > 0.050). Gestational metabolic disorders were independent risk of LPE: weekly GWG and the per cent of fat mass in normal weight pregnant women with LPE were significantly higher compared to the women with EPE and control. The per cent of fat mass in the 1st trimester in PPE (23.90 ± 4.40 %) exceeded control (20.50 ± 4.30 %; р = 0.003) and EPE (21.20 ± 3.65 %; р = 0.008) groups. Differences were aggravated during pregnancy (р < 0.050).Conclusions. Pre-pregnancy overweight and obesity, excessive GWG and gain of fatty mass were an independent risk of developing PE with synergistic negative effect. Pre-pregnancy and gestational lipid dismetabolism were associated with LPE. Our results suggested that no correlation between pre-pregnancy BMI, GWG, fatty mass and risk of EPE.

AbstrakStatus gizi pada Ibu dan Anak merupakan faktor penting yang wajib menjadi perhatian besar bagi petugas kesehatan. Keadaan kurang gizi pada Ibu hamil dan balita penyebab terbesar yaitu dipengarui oleh kebiasaan mengkonsumsi makanan yang kurang baik. PMT (Pemberian Makanan Tambahan) sangat memengaruhi untuk status gizi nantinya pada Ibu Hamil dan Anak. Pemberian Makanan Tambahan tujuannya yaitu untuk memperbaiki keadaan gizi untuk mencapai status gizi yang Optimal. Padahal kondisi status gizi yang kurang baik Ibu dan Anak akan mengakibatkan bertambahnya Stunting.Kondisi diatas mendasari penulis untuk  membuat Inovasi resep PMT berbahan dasar  makanan atau sayuran yang mudah di temuai di lingkungan sekitar sebagai makanan tambahan. Untuk mengetahui Ibu dan Anak secara langsung mengkonsumsi PMT maka peneliti melakukan pendampingan dalam membuat, mengkonsumsi dan mengevaluasi hasil tersebut. Program Pengabdian Kepada masyarakat ini juga bertujuan untuk melatih anggota keluarga, khususnya orang tua balita dalam menyiapkan makanan tambahan yang sehat dan nilai gizinya seimbang, sehingga status gizi balita nantinya semakin membai. Metode yang di gunakan dalam program pengabdian masyarakat yang dilakuka di Kelurahan Nginden Jangkungan adalah penyuluhan dan demonstrasi bagaimana cara pembuatan PMT. Hasil dari pengabdian dalam kurun 1 bulan ibu-ibu PKK sudah bisa melakukan cara pembuatan PMT dan juga diterapkan dikehidupan sehari-hari untuk pemenuhan gizi pada anak.Kata Kunci: PMT , Meningkatan Kesehatan ,Ibu dan AnakAbstractThe nutritional status of mothers and children is an important factor that must be of great concern to health workers. The state of malnutrition in pregnant women and toddlers is the biggest cause, which is influenced by the habit of consuming less good food. PMT (Supplementary Feeding) greatly affects the nutritional status of pregnant women and children. Supplementary feeding aims to improve nutritional status to achieve optimal nutritional status. Whereas the condition of poor nutritional status of mothers and children will result in increased stunting. The above conditions underlie the author to make PMT recipe innovations made from food or vegetables that are easily found in the surrounding environment as additional food. To find out mothers and children directly consume PMT, the researchers provide assistance in making, consuming and evaluating the results. This Community Service Program also aims to train family members, especially parents of children under five, in preparing complementary foods that are healthy and have a balanced nutritional value, so that the nutritional status of toddlers will improve. The method used in the community service program carried out in Nginden Jangkungan Village is counseling and demonstration of how to make PMT. The results of the service within 1 month of PKK mothers have been able to do how to make PMT and also apply it in daily life to fulfill nutrition in children.Key Word: PMT, Improving Health, Mother and Child

Obesity is rapidly increasing worldwide and there is a general misconception regarding body weight perception. The aim of this study was to determine the prevalence of obesity and body weight perception among pregnant women. A total of 315 pregnant women participated in this study. Their Body Mass Index (BMI) was recorded and weight perception was assessed using a questionnaire. About two third (60.6%, n=191) participants in the study had excess weight out of which, 29.8% (n=94) were obese and 30.8% (n=97) were overweight. There was poor agreement between participant’s true body weight category and their perception (k=0.185 (95% CI, 0.119 to 0.258), p<0.001). Majority of participants who were obese (84%, n=79) and overweight (77.4%, n=75) underestimated their weight status. Only a very small percentage of obese (16%, n=15) and overweight 18.6% (n=18) participants had correct perception of their weight. However, the majority (84.3%, n=86) of participants with normal body weight had correct perception regarding their body weight. This study found that most obese and overweight women tend to underestimate their weight status while those of normal weight had correct perception of their body weight. The inaccurate perception of those who are obese and overweight may impact weight gain during pregnancy and affect pregnancy related complications. Education regarding ideal body weight and its benefits needs to be instilled during pre-pregnancy care to achieve better overall outcome.

ABSTRACTFor the first time, a population approach was used to describe abacavir (ABC) pharmacokinetics in HIV-infected pregnant and nonpregnant women. A total of 266 samples from 150 women were obtained. No covariate effect (from age, body weight, pregnancy, or gestational age) on ABC pharmacokinetics was found. Thus, it seems unnecessary to adapt the ABC dosing regimen during pregnancy.

The article gives a scientific and practical justification for the expansion of the diagnostic algorithm in pregnant women with the threat of miscarriage, taking into account the woman’s phenotype. The objective: was to study the basic patterns of the formation and disruption of the reproductive system in pregnant women with overweight and obesity and to evaluate possible criteria for the formation of endocrine and metabolic disorders for the timely diagnosis and prevention of perinatal complications in pregnant women, depending on their phenotype. Materials and methods. Clinical groups comprised 175 pregnant women of different body weight (120 women with overweight and obesity, who were observed from a small gestation period on the basis of the department of fetal medicine and the pathology of early pregnancy of the communal institution «Dnepropetrovsk Regional Perinatal Center with a hospital» in the city of Dnepr (I clinical group) and 55 pregnant women with normal body weight (II clinical group – comparison group)). Results. The dependence of the detection of menstrual cycle disorders in women with overweight and obesity is 1.5 times more often than in women with normal weight. The course of early gestation was analyzed. The necessity of lipid and carbohydrate profile estimation in these patients is substantiated. Authentic criteria of violations of carbohydrate metabolism are specified. Сonclusion. It is necessary to move from the assessment of the effects of obesity to the «Body Mass Index-Oriented Approach» to the assessment based on the «complicity approach». This will make it possible to individualize therapeutic tactics in pregnant women depending on their phenotype and reduce the incidence of gestational complications and perinatal losses. Key words: phenotype, pregnancy, loss of pregnancy, obesity, phenotype, carbohydrate profile, lipid profile, hormonal characteristics.
