Objectives To assess the rate of stillbirth and associated risk factors across nine states in India. Design Secondary analysis cross-sectional data from Indian Annual Health Survey (2010–2013). Setting Nine India: Madhya Pradesh, Chhattisgarh, Rajasthan, Uttarakhand, Jharkhand, Odisha, Bihar, Assam Uttar Pradesh. Participants 886 505 women, aged 15–49 years. Main outcome measures Stillbirth with 95% CI. Adjusted OR to examine associations between (1) socioeconomic, behavioural biodemographic...
Unsafe abortion is a preventable cause of maternal mortality. While studies report high number abortions in India, the population-level rates unsafe and their risk factors are not well understood. Our objective was to analyse for abortion-related death India.We conducted secondary analysis data from 1 876 462 pregnant women aged 15-58 years nine states Indian Annual Health Survey (2010-2013). We calculated rate mortality with 95% CI. Multivariable logistic regression models examined...
Objective To examine the risk factors for pregnancy-related death in India’s nine Empowered Action Group (EAG) states. Design Secondary data analysis of Indian Annual Health Survey (2010–2013). Setting Nine states: Assam, Bihar, Chhattisgarh, Jharkhand, Madhya Pradesh, Odisha, Rajasthan, Uttar Pradesh and Uttarakhand. Participants 1 989 396 pregnant women. Methods Maternal mortality ratio (MMR), overall each state, with 95% CI was calculated. Stepwise multivariable logistic regression used...
Breastfeeding is commonly practiced by a majority of mothers in developing countries, though there are widespread misconceptions about optimal breastfeeding traditions. In addition to culturally prominent rituals and social norms, incorrect inadequate knowledge major factors for this high-risk behavior.To assess knowledge, attitude practices among girls women visiting tertiary care center India find out the factors, which influence behaviors.It cross-sectional, questionnaire-based study done...
Abstract Objective This study aimed to investigate the incidence of and risk factors for stillbirth in an Indian population. Methods We conducted a secondary data analysis hospital‐based cohort from Maternal Perinatal Health Research collaboration, India (MaatHRI), including pregnant women who gave birth between October 2018–September 2023. Data 9823 singleton pregnancies recruited 13 hospitals across six states were included. Univariable multivariable Poisson regression performed examine...
Deoxyelephantopin (DOE), a phytochemical, extracted and purified from Elephantopus scaber, has been shown to exhibit antitumor activities. Objective of the present study was investigate anti-tumor apoptosis-inducing properties DOE against uterine leiomyoma (UL) explore their molecular mechanisms. Primary cell cultures fresh UL tissue were established maintained up 12 passages. The cells exhibited continuous proliferation with 24 -h doubling time until passages then subjected...
Objectives To investigate the association between coagulation parameters and severity of anaemia (moderate anaemia: haemoglobin (Hb) 7–9.9 g/dL severe Hb <7 g/dL) during pregnancy relate these to postpartum haemorrhage (PPH) at childbirth. Design A prospective cohort study pregnant women recruited in third trimester followed-up after Setting Ten hospitals across four states India. Participants 1342 women. Intervention Not applicable. Methods parameters: fibrinogen, D-dimer,...
Small non-coding micro RNAs (miRNAs) are indicated in various metabolic processes and play a critical role disease pathology, including gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM).The purpose of this study was to examine the altered expression miRNAs their target genes placental tissue (PL), cord blood (CB), maternal (MB) matched non-glucose tolerant (NGT) GDM mother.In case-control study, micro-RNA quantified from forty-five serum (MB n = 15, CB PL 15) using stem-loop RT-qPCR followed by...
BackgroundGuidelines for labour induction/augmentation involve evaluating maternal and fetal complications, allowing informed decisions from pregnant women. This study aimed to comprehensively explore clinical non-clinical factors influencing induction augmentation in an Indian population.MethodsA prospective cohort included 9305 women 13 hospitals across India. Self-reported socio-demographic lifestyle factors, medical obstetric histories records were obtained at recruitment (≥28 weeks of...
Gestational Diabetes Mellitus (GDM) is an emerging maternal health problem with increasing incidences. The lack of complete understanding its pathophysiological mechanisms and novel regulatory biomarkers makes early diagnosis difficult. High-throughput RNA sequencing computational bioinformatics analyses were conducted to identify hub genes, their validated through qRT-PCR, western blot, siRNA-mediated knockdown studies. Intermediate metabolites circulatory levels amino acids in the serum...
Background: In this modern era where women have achieved the highest positions in politics, corporate world and conquered moon, on other side she is still fighting for her right, i.e. health. For should become economically independent. The concept of waiting a son preference by society be discouraged. Postpartum post abortal period are very crucial especially many those belonging to villages as may only time comes contact with health personnel. Hence counseling given all patients at time....
Abstract Low hemoglobin is widely used as an indicator of iron deficiency anemia in India and other low‐and‐middle income counties, but need not accurately reflect deficiency. We examined the relationship between biomarkers status antenatal postnatal period. Secondary analysis uncomplicated singleton pregnancies two Indian study cohorts: 1132 women third trimester 837 12–72 h after childbirth. Associations with ferritin both data sets, sTfR, TSAT, hepcidin cohort were using multivariable...
To investigate whether induction/augmentation of labor in pregnant women with anemia increases the risk postpartum hemorrhage (PPH) and this varied by indications for severity pregnancy.
This study aimed (1) To record the nutrient intake of respondents and compare same with available recommended dietary allowances (RDA). (2) assess correlation between maternal weight newborn.Two hundred ninety two pregnant women.Five hospitals Aligarh city, Uttar Pradesh.
