Abstract

Background: Neonatal mortality in the world is mostly caused by premature birth (43%), and in Indonesia the biggest cause of neonatal death is premature birth (45%). One of the causes of pregnant women experiencing premature labor, namely urinary tract infections due to changes in the urinary tract system during pregnancy. This study aims to analyze the primary study of the effect of urinary tract infections in pregnant women on preterm delivery with a meta-analysis. Subjects and Method: This study is a meta-analysis with the following PICO, population: pregnant women. Intervention: Having a urinary tract infection. Comparison: No urinary tract infection. Outcome: Premature delivery. The articles used in this study were obtained from three databases, namely Google Scholar, Pubmed, and Science Direct. Keywords to search for articles (“urinary tract infection” AND “preterm labor” OR “premature birth” OR “premature labor”). The included article is full text in English with a case-control study design from 2006 to 2022 and reports the adjusted odds ratio in a multivariate analysis. The selection of articles is done by using PRISMA flow diagram. Articles were analyzed using the Review Manager 5.3 aplikasi application. Results: A total of 10 case-control studies from Iran, Iraq, India, Tanzania, Ethiopia, and Peru were selected for the meta-analysis. The data collected showed that pregnant women with urinary tract infections increased the occurrence of preterm labor by 2.19 times compared to pregnant women who did not experience urinary tract infections (aOR= 2.19; 95% CI= 1.80 to 2.66; p<0.001). Conclusion: Urinary tract infection during pregnancy increases the incidence of preterm labor. Keywords: urinary tract infection, premature delivery, meta-analysis.

Abstract

Background: Low birth weight is the single most risk factor for perinatal mortality and placenta due to its importance in fetomaternal circulation plays an important role in pregnancy outcome. The present study aims to evaluate the pathological changes in the placenta in term (38-42 weeks) low birth weight babies. Subjects and Method: It is case control study done in Jorhat Medical College and Hospital during the period from June 2020 to May 2021. Consecutive sampling was done. 100 placentae were subjected to detailed gross and histological examination. Sixty placentae were from full term babies with birth weight less than 2,500g (LBW). Fourty placentae from full term babies with birth weight more than 2,500g were included in control group. Weight of the baby was taken within the 1st hour of birth and APGAR score was noted. Gross and microscopic examination of placentae was done. Statistical correlation was carried out between them by using Student t-test with SPSS software, P value <0.05 was taken as statistically significant. Results: Weight of term LBW cases placentae were lighter compared to control, diameter of the placentae in term LBW cases placenta was lesser compared to control (p= 0.045). The syncytial knot count, cytotrophoblastic cell proliferation and perivillous fibrin deposition was more in placentae of term LBW cases compared to controls (p= 0.045). Conclusion: Placental pathology among term LBW cases was high in comparison tocontrol group. The present study shows the importance of histopathological examination of the placenta to know the exact mechanism of placental dysfunction in term LBW cases. Keywords: low birth weight, perivillous fibrin deposition, syncytial knot count, cytotrophoblastic cell proliferation. Correspondence:Dr Sanchita Paul ,house no.129, karimganj, Assam. Pin: 788710.
