Abstract

Backgrounds: The coverage of exclusive breastfeeding in the world is still low. It is influenced by the limited number of breastfeeding counselors, the lack of education, advocacy and coaching breastfeeding support groups, maternal health and physiological factors (prolactin and oxytocin hormones). Dates contains oxytocin and many chemical elements which are good for breastfeeding mothers. Regular oxytocin massage therapy is also shown to increase the production of the oxytocin hormone. Aims: To compare the effectiveness of palm dates and oxytocin massage in stimulating breastmilk production of postpartum mothers. Methods: it is a literature review study, using keywords breastfeeding, palm dates and oxytocin massage from national and international journals. Results: The results shown that palm date and oxytocin massage have been proven to increase the oxytocin hormone that is influential on the smoothness of breastfeeding in postpartum mothers. Some studies noted that the palm dates contain potuchin hormone that serves spur blood vessel contractions around the breast spurring mammary gland to produce milk. In addition, there is the hormone oxytocin can help stimulating the contractions of the muscles of the uterus to facilitate childbirth. While oxytocin massage can increase milk production and the babys weight and also to drive a contraction in the veins surround the breast and spurring the milk glands to produce milk. Conclusion: The results of several studies suggest that the oxytocin massage is more effective applied to increase oxytocin than the consumption of palm dates.

Abstract

Background: Anemia is a major cause of bleeding due to iron deficiency. Iron tablets which contain 60 mg of Ferrous Sulphate and 0.25 mg of folic acid did not show good results in changing the body’s iron level and there are many perceived side effects. However, there is now exists an oral iron tablets in the form of available salt compounds of ferrous fumarate, ferrous sulphate, and ferrous gluconate. These tablets contain iron hydroxide polymaltose complex (III) or better known as IPC (Iron Polymaltose Complex) and have minimal side effects. Aims: To understand the effect of IPC tablets in increasing the hemoglobin level in pregnant women with anemia. Methods: This study used quantitative study with pre-experimental design, or experiments that have not been applied in real terms. This study used non-probability sampling technique and purposive sampling for the selected sample. The sample were 35 people based on the inclusion criteria. The design used was one group pre-test – post-test approach without the control group. The subjects undertook the anemia examination on the first day (pre-test) and afterwards were administered 100mg IPC tablets daily for the next 30 days. In the end of the intervention, the subjects were re-examined and the results were compared (post-test). Results: The study showed that there is a significant increase of hemoglobin level in pregnant women with anemia with p value = 0.023 (p<0.05) after the intervention in the form of IPC tablet administration was conducted for 30 days. Conclusion: The intervention performed in administration of IPC tablets for pregnant women with anemia showed a significant increase of hemoglobin level before and after the provision of IPC tablets.

Abstract

Recent studies have clearly demonstrated adverse health impacts related to pollutants such as ozone (O3), particulate matter (PM), carbon monoxide (CO), nitrogen oxides (NOX) and sulfur dioxide (SO2). Relative high concentration of such pollutants have certain link to degraded human health, for example cardiovascular and respiratory (Guo et al. 2014; Wong et al. 2008). The consequent rising mortality and hospitalization rate will also bring about economic burdens to the society. According to annual report of Pollution Control Deparment year 2015 (Pollution Control Department (PCD) 2017) (PM10) and PM that ae Bangkok Metropolitan Region - Thailand (BMR), one of the major metropolitan areas in the world, is an upper-middle class megacity composed of Bangkok city proper and five surrounding provinces. With an actual population of approximately 15 million, it is the central hub for commerce and tourism in the Southeast Asian (SEA) region. In the past decades, the BMR has experienced extraordinary economic development and urban expansion, which displaying notable concern regarding the ambient air pollution and its adverse effects on human health. In the BMR, relatively high emission are located inside Bangkok, due to on-road transport activity as well as relatively high emissions in industrial combustion and processes are located in vicinity provinces of Bangkok. Objectives of this study include 1) To assess mortality health burden using with Bangkok ambient data of PM10 and 2) To assess air benefit and health benefit due to emission reduction in transport sector from advanced environmental policy, case study for BMR, focusing on PM2.5 long-term mortality. Results indicated that there is health benefit to comply ambient air with standard. This is possible message to our policy maker “Just to enforce ambient air to Thailand standard of PM10, avoided mortality of respiratory and cardiovascular disease in Bangkok is up to 40%. And if the country reaches that, we can move forward to set higher target, of course, the benefit can be higher (up to 85%) if we successfully enforce ambient air to World Health Organization (WHO) standard. In addition, implementation of more stringent environmental policy in transport sector in the BMR indicated good example of health benefit associated to the PM2.5 reduction associated with current legislation. However, approaches to provide mitigation options for multiple sources sectors and regions should be considered to obtain better benefit”.

Abstract

Adolescent pregnancy has become a growing concern nowadays and hence it has become imperative to look into the various causes of teenage pregnancy in order to deal with this issue carefully. Adolescent pregnancies are widely discouraged because the of health risks raised for the young mothers and babies. Adolescent pregnancies create a host of other problems like incomplete education, unemployment, poverty, social embarrassment and numerous other emotional traumas. Further, early motherhood also affects the psychological development of the child adversely. Adolescent pregnancy can also have negative social and economic effects on girls, their families and communities. Besides, bodies of teenage girls are not as developed as those of adult women in terms of childbearing, therefore, they are likely to face certain complications as well. Early childbearing increases the risks for both mothers and their newborns.Moreover, the chances of maternal death can not be ruled out. Therefore, analyzing the various causes of adolesecent pregnancy can help a great deal in addressing this issue effectively and eventually reducing the cases of adolescent pregnancies.
