Abstract

Twin Reversed Arterial Perfusion Sequence (TRAPS) is a rare and severe complication unique to monochorionic twin pregnancies, characterized by retrograde perfusion of a nonviable acardiac twin by a structurally normal pump twin. Management of TRAPS diagnosed in late gestation remains controversial due to limited interventional options and an unpredictable clinical course. While early fetal intervention is generally recommended, evidence supporting expectant management in late-diagnosed cases, particularly in resource-limited settings, remains scarce. We report a 31-year-old gravida 2, para 1 woman with a monochorionic diamniotic twin pregnancy complicated by TRAPS, who was referred to a maternal–fetal medicine clinic at 29–30 weeks of gestation. Given stable pump twin hemodynamics, late gestational age, and unavailability of fetal therapy, expectant management with intensive ultrasound surveillance was pursued. At 32 weeks, signs of evolving cardiac compromise prompted delivery by cesarean section. The pump twin survived with prematurity-related complications and was discharged in stable condition. This case highlights that expectant management may be a reasonable option in carefully selected late-diagnosed TRAPS cases when fetal therapy is unavailable, provided that close surveillance and timely delivery are ensured.

Abstract

This study examined the relationship between rumination and mental health among university students by testing the mediating roles of depression and anxiety. Rumination refers to a repetitive and passive focus on negative experiences and emotions that may influence psychological functioning. A quantitative correlational design was employed. A total of 113 students completed the Ruminative Response Scale (RRS), Beck Depression Inventory-II (BDI-II), Beck Anxiety Inventory (BAI), and General Health Questionnaire (GHQ-12). Parallel mediation analysis indicated that rumination significantly predicted depression (β = .6197, p < .001) and anxiety (β = .5830, p < .001). Depression significantly predicted mental health (β = .2893, p = .025), whereas anxiety was not a significant predictor (β = .1186, p = .343). The direct effect of rumination on mental health was not significant (β = −.0940, p = .427), nor was the total effect (β = .1544, p = .098). However, the indirect effect through depression was significant (β = .1793, p = .031; 95% CI [.00464, .0957]), whereas the indirect path through anxiety was not significant (β = .0692, p = .347). These findings indicate that depression fully mediates the relationship between rumination and mental health. Thus, the influence of rumination on students’ mental health primarily operates through increased depressive symptoms.
