Abstract

Pregnancy, childbirth, postpartum, newborns and family planning are physiological and continuous processes. The aim of providing midwifery care with continuity of care is to use SOAP midwifery management. qualitative descriptive method using a case study approach where Mrs. M was given care starting from TM III pregnancy, childbirth, newborns, postpartum to family planning in a sequence starting from reviewing data, formulating problems, planning care, carrying out care and evaluation, finally documenting using the SOAP method with SOAP development data. Midwifery care in NY. M, 24 year old postpartum mother, first day 6 hours post partum with blood pressure examination results of 110/80, conjunctiva not anemic, perineal suture wound still wet, bleeding less than 100 cc, uterine fundus height 2 fingers below the center and good uterine contractions, breast milk The first day hasn't come out yet. Mothers are advised to breastfeed their babies on demand and as often as possible to stimulate breast milk to come out and do acupressure massage at the PC 6 and GB11 points. For approximately 30 minutes of continuity of care midwifery care for Mrs. M has been done, the problem is slightly resolved. Breast milk slowly comes out, even if only a few drops. It is hoped that the mother will always breastfeed her baby a maximum of every 2 hours for good results. Furthermore, it was concluded that midwifery care provided when breast milk has not yet come in, can be an experience for mothers in order to achieve sustainable breastfeeding success. The hope is that midwives can implement and maintain quality and sustainable service quality in accordance with the SOP. Highlights:  Continuity of Care: Midwifery care was provided from late pregnancy to postpartum and contraception using the SOAP method. Early Breastfeeding Support: Immediate postpartum care focused on stimulating breast milk through frequent breastfeeding and acupressure. Quality Midwifery Practice: The experience emphasizes the importance of consistent, SOP-based care to support breastfeeding success. Keywords: Childbirth, Midwifery Care, COC, Acupressure

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

In addition to causing weight gain, eating too much sugar raises the risk of obesity and diabetes, both of which raise the chance of cancer. It turns out that while eating sugar does not always cause cancer, it can cause the disease because of the way it affects your waist. Sugar is necessary for cancer cells to survive, not to proliferate and divide. Although this sugar is absorbed by all bodily tissues, it is more readily absorbed by tissues with higher energy requirements, such as cancer cells. Because of this, some people have concluded that sugar accelerates the growth of cancer cells. "I'd be shocked if cutting back on sugar didn't help lower the risk of cancer," she says. "High-fructose corn syrup, which is found in soft drinks, sweetened teas, sports drinks, and processed meals, as well as in candy, cookies, ice cream, and sweetened breakfast cereal, should be avoided. Highlights: Excess sugar raises obesity and diabetes risk, increasing cancer risk. Cancer cells absorb more sugar due to higher energy needs. Avoid high-fructose corn syrup in processed and sugary foods. Keywords: cancer, cells, crave, sugar

Abstract

Background: In the brain, neurotransmitters and hormones interact intricately to control sleep. While adenosine builds up over time to cause tiredness, neurotransmitters like serotonin and norepinephrine encourage wakefulness. Objectives: Measuring the impact of a lack of sleep on daytime sleepiness and daily performance and identifying factors affecting sleep, such as psychological stress, working hours, and daily habits. Methods: This study employs a descriptive, analytical, cross-sectional design. To measure daytime sleepiness and sleep quality, 150 college students were given a self-administered questionnaire. Data on sleep habits and their relationships can be gathered at a single point in time according to the study's cross-sectional design. Descriptive and inferential statistics were utilized to examine the replies, and convenience sampling was employed. Results: Based on the overall statistical results, which include the descriptive statistics for the mean score of 1.52 and a standard deviation of 0.175, the final assessment of sleep quality for individuals is classified as "Bad" This indicates that the majority of participants are experiencing poor sleep quality, as reflected by the mean score falling within the "Bad" range. Conclusion: This indicates that the majority of participants are experiencing poor sleep quality, as reflected by the mean score falling within the Bad range. Highlights: Neurotransmitters and hormones regulate sleep and wakefulness in the brain. Cross-sectional survey of 150 students using descriptive, inferential statistics.

Abstract

Background: Escherichia coli bacteria possess a number of virulence factors, in addition to their ability to acquire enterotoxin genes through plasmids or bacteriophages, or through genes acquired from other pathogenic bacterial genera through bacterial conjugation. The resistance to antibiotics that bacteria possess is considered one of the most important economic and health problems around the world. Nanoparticles are mainly used in antibacterial applications due to their long-term stability and biocompatibility. The mechanisms behind the antimicrobial effect of these nanoparticles are metal ion release, oxidative stress, and non-oxidative stress that occur simultaneously. Mineral nanoparticles are characterized by their broad-spectrum properties against both Gram-negative and Gram positive bacteria. Objectives: The study aimed to determine the effect of nanomaterials on the growth of E. coli bacteria Methods: Been collected of 100 samples collected from urinary tract infections and stool in Sterile bottles in different hospitals in Baquba city (Baquba Teaching Hospital and Al- Batool Hospital) It was subjected to detecting the resistance of the isolates to six antibiotics and the extent of the effect of nanomaterials on bacterial growth Results: Thirty-three isolates of E. coli bacteria were obtained. From urine and stool, the isolates were tested for resistance to six antibiotics: Amoxicillin-Clavulanic acid, Cefotaxime, Cefepime, Ciprofloxacin, Ampicillin, and Tetracycline. The effect of nanomaterials, silver and zinc nanoparticles, on bacterial growth was determined, as the results showed a decrease in bacterial growth as a result of the use of nanomaterials. Conclusion: Escherichia coli isolates are characterized by their multiple resistance to antibiotics, which increases their pathogenicity. The use of nanoparticle inhibitors of silver and zinc led to a decrease in bacterial growth, which makes them used as alternatives in treatment. Highlights: coli shows virulence, gene transfer, and antibiotic resistance. Evaluate nanomaterials' effect on E. coli bacterial growth. Silver, zinc nanoparticles reduce E. coli growth; potential antibiotic alternatives. Keywords: Escherichia coli. Nanoparticles; urinary tract infection; Antibiotic resistance

Abstract

Background: About 50% of men and nearly 50% of women experience hair loss, making it one of the most prevalent aesthetic issues in the world. This condition can have a detrimental impact on each person's quality of life and can result in circumstances that can cause psychological distress and demoralization. It's critical to comprehend whether hair loss is a regular physiological process or whether it's an aberrant process brought on by issues with the scalp or its bulb, for example. Since baldness, alopecia, and all forms of hair loss are always the consequence of multiple factors that contribute to their development, defining them is frequently difficult and reductive. Objectives: To assess the knowledge about the physiological reasons that lead to hair loss and find the relationship between knowledge and socio-demographic characteristics. Material and methods: A descriptive cross-sectional study was conducted from October 10, 2024, to January 15, 2025. A random sample of 150 people from Basrah University participated in the study. To gather information and evaluate knowledge, a questionnaire was employed. Results: Most of the university population is not sure that Cushing's syndrome does not cause hair loss (44.7%), most of the university population agree Hyperthyroidism causes hair loss (76.7%), most of the university population agree Vitamin D deficiency causes hair loss (89.3%), The majority of university students concur that there is a connection between ferritin insufficiency and hair loss (40.7%), while the majority of students concur that there is a connection between zinc deficiency and hair loss (71.3%). However, half of the students disagree. The majority of university students believe that iron deficiency and hair loss are related (84.7%), that obesity causes hair loss (50%), and that heredity does not cause hair loss (76.7%). Additionally, the majority of university students (70%) concur that there is a connection between vitamin A insufficiency and hair loss, and over half (55.3%) concur that there is a connection between biotin shortage and hair loss, more than half of college students (57.3%) concur that folic acid deficiency and hair loss are related. Conclusion: According to the results of this study, most university students are well-informed about hair loss. Highlights: air loss affects 50% of men and women, impacting quality of life. Objectives: Assess knowledge on physiological causes of hair loss and socio-demographics. Conclusion: Most university students are well-informed about hair loss causes. Keywords: Society, Physiological, Hair loss, Vitamin D, knowledge

Abstract

Taxol is a microtubule inhibitor drug widely used in treatment of many types of cancer. In the present study Taxol at different doses if the rats were randomly divided into three groups, each group containing 12 laboratory rats, as follows: The control group consisted of 12 rats injected with 0.5 ml of distilled water. The low dose group consisted of 12 rats injected with 2 mg/kg of Taxol intraperitoneally. The high dose group consisted of 12 rats injected with 4 mg/kg of Taxol intraperitoneally. The results of histological examination of tissue sections showed pathological histological changes in the kidneys of laboratory rats. The results of the current study showed a significant decrease below the probability level of P≤0.05 in blood parameters including white blood cell count and percentage of lymphocytes, neutrophils, eosinophils and basophils in laboratory rats treated with (TAXOL) at two doses (2.4 mg/kg). The results of the study showed a significant decrease in the number of red blood cells below the probability level of P≤0.05 at both high and low doses, noting that the effect of the high dose was greater than the low dose. The results of histological sections of the kidneys of laboratory rats treated with Taxol showed blood congestion in the blood vessels with degenerations in the proximal and distal endothelial cells and atrophy of the renal glomeruli Highlights: Groups: Control, 2 mg/kg Taxol, 4 mg/kg Taxol (n=12/group). Blood: Taxol reduced WBC, RBC, lymphocytes, neutrophils significantly (P≤0.05). Kidney: Congestion, cell degeneration, glomerular atrophy observed in treated rats.

Abstract

It has recently been proven that many natural compounds made from crude plant extracts offer protection from the passive effects of various contaminants. One common spice and therapeutic herb is Gingko Biloba Extract. To study the effect of aqueous Gingko Biloba Extract in inhibiting the genotoxicity of cisplatin, we gave the first group cisplatin 10mg/kg only. During the work, the second group was treated with an aqueous extract of Gingko Biloba Extract 50mg/kg then 10mg/kg cisplatin. The third group was treated with an aqueous extract of Gingko Biloba Extract 100mg/kg then cisplatin 10mg/kg. On the other hand, the last group was treated with the same aqueous extract 150mg/kg, then 10mg/kg cisplatin. To perform genetic tests, we used micronuclei and sperm abnormality tests. After the treatment with cisplatin, the micronuclei and sperm abnormality were induced; however, the treatment with aqueous extract of Gingko Biloba Extract, the micronuclei and sperm abnormality were significantly reduced in male mice. These results demonstrated that cisplatin treatment alone is not effective as cisplatin treatment in combination with aqueous extract of Gingko Biloba Extract in reducing the amount of sperm head abnormalities and micronucleus. Highlights: Groups: Cisplatin alone; Ginkgo 50, 100, 150 mg/kg + cisplatin. Tests: Micronucleus and sperm abnormality tests performed on male mice. Result: Ginkgo reduced cisplatin-induced micronuclei, sperm abnormalities significantly. Keywords: Crocus sativus, Cisplatin, Sperm head abnormalities, Micronucleus Tests

Abstract

Candida, an opportunistic fungus in immunocompromised patients, can cause an infection like oral candidiasis which usually starts with Candida overgrowth. Thalassemia major (TM) patients are known to suffer from immune abnormalities that may lead to a condition of immune deficiency. So, we aimed to estimate the prevalence and intensity of Candida growth in oral cavity of TM patients, determine the accuracy of Candida identification, and assess some virulence factors. Our study was conducted on 150 TM patients and 80 controls between (1-40 years). Oral swabs were used for microscopic examination and culturing on SDA. The identification was done by candida differential agar (CDA), VITEK 2, and conventional PCR. Also, the virulence was estimated by measurement of proteinase, phospholipase, lipase, hemolysin, and biofilm. Candida species were orally isolated from 70% of TM patients with mean colony count (124±94) significantly more than 42.5% of control with (11±7), so a significant oral Candida overgrowth was observed in most (TM) patients compared with the control, referring to an increased probability of developing to oral candidiasis. Significantly, in total TM patients, male or female patients, the age group (11–20) showed a higher prevalence of Candida than other age groups, at 52.4%, 49%, and 55.56%, respectively. PCR identified 105 isolates from TM patients: C. albicans constituted the most common species with (61.9%), C. dubliniensis (35.2%) and C. glabrata (2.86%). Generally, in comparison with results of PCR, the accuracy of identification by CDA was (95.2%) more than (87.6%) by VITEK 2, but both were typical methods for identifying C. albicans with (100%). Significantly, the higher production of proteinase and lipase was by (92.3%) and (90.7%) of C. albicans isolates, respectively. While the majority of phospholipase and biofilm production was noted by (70.3%) of C. dubliniensis and (100%) of C. glabrata, respectively. All Candida species were hemolysin producers with 100%. Highlights: Samples: 150 TM patients, 80 controls; oral Candida prevalence 70%. Identification: PCR, CDA, VITEK 2; C. albicans most common (61.9%). Virulence: High proteinase, lipase (C. albicans); biofilm (C. glabrata). Keywords: accuracy of Candida identification, biofilm, extracellular enzymes, oral Candida overgrowth, thalassemia major patients
