Abstract

Introduction Comprehensive midwifery care includes pregnancy, childbirth, postpartum, newborns, and family planning (KB). The aim is to reduce the maternal mortality rate (MMR) in Indonesia through Continuity of Care (COC). This research method uses a descriptive method with case studies, collecting data through interviews, observation, physical examination and documentation. The data was analyzed for midwifery care using the SOAP technique. The results of the mother experiencing back pain during pregnancy were overcome with prenatal yoga. The delivery went normally without complications, the baby was born spontaneously weighing 3,200 grams and an Apgar score of 8-9. In the postpartum period, the mother complained of perineal wound pain and with early ambulation the pain was reduced. When the mother has finished postpartum, she is ready to become an IUD birth control acceptor. The conclusion was that no problems or abnormalities were found, so Mrs. F is categorized as normal/physiological. Highlights: Full cycle midwifery care applied from pregnancy to family planning. Non-pharmacological methods like prenatal yoga proved effective. Case supports COC as a model for safe, physiological maternal care. Keywords: Continuity of Care, Midwifery Care, Comprehensive

Abstract

Midwives try to reduce MMR by providing continuous midwifery care (CoC) for pregnant women to postpartum women. Continued care (COC) is midwifery care with a continuous service model for women during pregnancy to postpartum and family planning. The purpose of this study was to analyze midwifery care using the continuous care method in the independent practice of midwives. The design of this case study research uses a descriptive method, where Mrs. M was given midwifery care starting from the third trimester of pregnancy, childbirth, newborns, postpartum to family planning. Continuous midwifery care (CoC) for Mrs. M is standard midwifery care. The results of the study showed that after providing midwifery care to Mrs. M, it was found that the condition of the mother and baby was healthy or within normal limits, there were no complications until the implementation of care was completed. During the postpartum period, Kegel exercises were performed because Mrs. M was afraid that her vagina would not return to normal because heaching was not performed. Conclusion: Continuous midwifery care provided to the subject was in accordance with the applicable midwifery service standards. Highlights:  Comprehensive Care: Midwifery services covered pregnancy to family planning. Positive Outcomes: Mother and baby remained healthy without complications. Standard Compliance: Care followed established midwifery service standards. Keywords: Continue of Care, Midwifery, Service

Abstract

Background: As more women search for natural solutions or prescription medications to manage their symptoms, supplements like Alpha Lipoic Acid and CoQ10 are growing in popularity. Combining these with a personalized plan can lead to better health outcomes and a higher quality of life. Aim of the study: the aim of the current research project is to evaluate the effect of combined administration of metformin, ALA and CoQ10 on PCOS metabolic and fertility parameters. Patients and methods: This clinical trial, which was randomized, single-blind, and actively controlled, took place in Diwaniyah, Iraq, from October 2024 to June 2025. Participants were randomly assigned to three different groups. The random assignment was carried out using computer-generated random numbers. Patients in Group Met. received Glucophage (500 mg; Merck, West Drayton, UK) three times per day; Group Met.+ALA patients were given metformin as in the first group along with ALA (600 mg, Batch no. 6N5483; Holzkrichen, Bavaria, Germany) three times daily; Group Met.+ALA+CoQ10 patients received metformin and ALA as in the second group, along with 200 mg of CoQ10 each day. All treatments were provided over a duration of 12 weeks. Result: Post-treatment, all three forms of management showed significant decline in average free Testosterone, LH and LH:FSH ratio, GnRH anti-body and ovarian volume (p < 0.001); the effect of Met. plus ALA plus CoQ10 was significantly more profound when contrasted to other 2 modes of therapy (p < 0.05). However, none of these treatment approaches was able to affect serum levels of FSH, prolactin and TSH significantly (p > 0.05).Conclusion: The combined use of metformin therapy, CoQ10 supplements and ALA supplements is associated with the most optimum hormonal and ultrasound characteristic in PCOS women by reducing the pathogenic effect of anti GnRHR antibody level. Highlights: Combined Metformin, ALA, and CoQ10 improved hormonal and ultrasound parameters in PCOS. Significant reductions were observed in LH, free testosterone, LH:FSH ratio, and ovarian volume. No significant changes were found in FSH, prolactin, or TSH levels. Keywords: Polycystic Ovary Syndrome, Metformin, Alpha Lipoic Acid, Co-Enzyme Q10

Abstract

Background: Neonatal sepsis involves physical and laboratory findings due to infection within the first 30 days of life, with preterm infants being six times more at risk than term infants due to their immature immune systems and prolonged hospitalization. Sepsis is more common in males and in developing countries. The World Health Organization estimates 5 million neonatal deaths annually, mostly in developing countries. Despite advances in neonatal care, late-onset sepsis remains a significant cause of morbidity and mortality. Aim: To evaluate the significance of acute phase reactants and hematological findings versus blood culture in diagnosing sepsis in late preterm infants. Method: A cross-sectional study of 70 neonates with suspected sepsis from January 2011 to March 2012 at Babylon Teaching Hospital. Patients were classified as having early or late-onset neonatal sepsis. Tests included blood culture, c-reactive protein, erythrocyte sedimentation rate, white blood cell, platelets, and band cells. Results: Of the 70 patients, 55.7% were male and 44.3% were female. Early sepsis was observed in 40% of patients, and late sepsis in 60%. Blood culture was positive in 25.7% of cases, with 83.3% of these in early sepsis. CRP was positive in 91.4% of patients, including 100% of early sepsis cases and 85.7% of late sepsis cases. Positive band cells were found in 45.7% of cases, with 83.3% of these having positive blood cultures. Abnormal WBC counts (<5000 or >21000) were found in 64.3% of cases. Low platelet counts (<150,000) were observed in 55.7% of patients, with 67.8% in early sepsis and 47.6% in late sepsis. Elevated ESR (>6mm/h) was seen in 91.4% of cases. Conclusion: Blood culture remains the gold standard for diagnosing sepsis, though its accuracy can be affected by antibiotic use. Combining multiple diagnostic tests improves predictive values over single tests. Highlights: Late-onset sepsis remains a major cause of neonatal morbidity and mortality. CRP and ESR showed high positivity, supporting their value in early detection. Blood culture is essential but benefits from combined diagnostic markers.

Abstract

Background: Breast cancer is the leading cause of death in women worldwide and the second most common cause in the US. Rescovitine a clinical CDK2 inhibitor has been studied as a potential anticancer agent in breast cancer. has a short half-life (2–5 h), necessitating new analogs with improved pharmacokinetics. Objective: To design and synthesize five thiourea derivatives (VIa–VIe) that mimic rescovitine selectivity and low toxicity, while addressing its pharmacokinetic limitations. Evaluation the cytotoxicity in MCF-7 breast cancer cells. Materials & Methods: Derivatives were synthesized by reacting substituted benzoic acids with SOCl2, followed by the formation of isothiocyanates (IIa–e). Subsequent reflux with 5-amino-1H-pyrazole-4-carbonitrile yielded the thioureas VIa–VIe. Characterization: Melting points, NMR (¹H/¹³C), FT-IR spectroscopy, and EI-MS. antiproliferative activity against MCF-7 cell (MTT assay, IC₅₀), compared to rescovitine. Results: VIa and VIe showed best MCF-7 inhibition (93.77%, IC₅₀ = 123.64 μM; 94.55%, IC₅₀ = 118.49μM) vs. rescovitine (97.33%, IC₅₀ = 20.27μM). VIe (4-F substituent) and VIa (unsubstituted) exhibited strongest cytotoxicity against. All compounds complied with Lipinski’s Rule of Five (0 violations) and showed excellent GI absorption but no BBB permeability. Electronic substituents (e.g., F in VIe) enhanced the activity, while steric groups (e.g., CH₃ in VIb) reduced the efficacy. Conclusion: VIa and VIe emerged as lead candidates with cytotoxicity comparable to that of rescovitine. Fluorine substitution (VIe) optimized the activity, highlighting structure-activity relationships for future to get more potent molecules. Highlights: Lead Compounds Identified: VIa and VIe demonstrated strong antiproliferative activity in MCF-7 cells, approaching that of rescovitine, despite higher IC₅₀ values. Structure-Activity Relationship (SAR): Electron-withdrawing substituents like fluorine (VIe) enhanced cytotoxicity, while bulky groups reduced efficacy. Pharmacokinetics Advantage: All synthesized compounds complied with Lipinski’s Rule and exhibited excellent GI absorption—supporting their potential as orally available anticancer agents.

Abstract

General Background: Thyroid disorders such as hypothyroidism and hyperthyroidism are common endocrine abnormalities characterized by disrupted levels of triiodothyronine (T3), thyroxine (T4), and thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH). Specific Background: Mutations in the thyroid hormone receptor beta (THRB) gene are implicated in thyroid hormone resistance syndromes and potentially in other thyroid dysfunctions. Knowledge Gap: However, there is limited data regarding the prevalence of THRB gene mutations among thyroid disorder patients in Misan Province, Iraq. Aims: This study aimed to evaluate the presence of THRB gene mutations among women diagnosed with thyroid disorders and assess corresponding hormonal variations across age groups. Results: Hormonal analysis revealed significant deviations in FT3, FT4, and TSH levels in both hypothyroid and hyperthyroid patients across multiple age groups. Molecular analysis, however, did not detect any pathogenic mutations in the THRB gene. Novelty: Despite the identification of several unique haplotypes among patients, none corresponded to known pathogenic mutations, suggesting possible population-specific genetic profiles without direct impact on receptor function. Implications: These findings underscore the need for broader genetic screening beyond THRB in diagnosing thyroid disorders and highlight the limited role of THRB mutations in the pathogenesis of thyroid dysfunction in this regional cohort.Highlight : No mutations were found in the THRB gene in patients with hypothyroidism and hyperthyroidism. Hormone analysis showed significant differences in FT3, FT4, and TSH levels between age groups. There were ten varying THRB gene haplotypes, but no mutations were detected. Keywords : Thyroid disorders, Thyroid hormone, TRHB gene, Novel mutation, Hyperthyroidism
