“…In the subgroup analysis of studies that mainly focused on RRT done by pediatricians only,[ 11 20 22 24 26 ] the pooled sensitivity and specificity were 56% (95% CI, 47–64%) and 97% (95% CI, 97–97%), respectively. The pooled sensitivity of studies where RRT was done by ophthalmologist[ 21 27 28 ] was 15% (95% CI: 13–16%), whereas the specificity was 96% (95% CI: 95–96%).…”

Red reflex test (RRT) screening is yet to be a part of the neonate's normal examination before discharge from hospital in a majority of low- and middle-income countries. The purpose was this review was to systematically evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of RRT for the detection of ocular abnormalities in newborns. PubMed, EMBASE, Scopus, Web of Science, and Cochrane database of systematic reviews were the data sources. Quality of Diagnostic Accuracy Studies-2 (QUADAS-2) was utilized for quality assessment of bias and applicability. Random effects models were used to summarize sensitivities, specificities, positive likelihood ratio (PLR), negative likelihood ratio (NLR), diagnostic odds ratio (DOR), and respective confidence intervals (CI). The pooled sensitivity, calculated from the meta analysis of 11 studies, was 23% (95% CI: 21–24%) and pooled specificity was 98% (95% CI: 98–98%). The PLR was 32.52 (95% CI: 7.89–134.15), NLR was less than 1 (0.69 [95% CI: 0.55–0.88]), and DOR calculated was 138.48 (95% CI: 23.85–803.97). The area under the curve (AUC) and Q* index for RRT were 0.98 ± 0.02 and 0.95 ± 0.045, respectively. The results of our study justify the conclusion that RRT is a highly sensitive and specific test for the detection of anterior segment abnormalities.

“…A high variance was seen among the studies in reporting sensitivity (0% to 99%). Only three studies have reported a sensitivity greater than 90%,[ 12 24 27 ] whereas four studies have sensitivity less than 50%. [ 21 22 23 28 ] This high degree of variation was statistically significant ( P = 0.00; I 2 = 98.8%).…”

“…A review of various studies showed that unexpected medical problems in mothers, such as prolonged labor, stimulation and induction, forceps delivery, emergency cesarean section, and analgesics in labor (epidurals and pethidine), have led to negative experiences in women (Baldino et al, 2020).…”

Introduction: Labor experiences have potential short and long term physical and psychological effects on women’s lives. Many factors influenced role in a mother’s experience of childbirth, both positively and negatively. This study aimed to determine the prevalence and factors that influence the delivery experience.Methods: This study searched for articles in the databases, namely Pub Med, Scopus, ProQuest, ScienceDirect, and Sage. The keyword used is labor experience. A total of 3654 articles were found, after selecting studies using PRISMA found 18 corresponding articles.Results: In this study, 18 studies were included in this systematic review, eight studies examined the prevalence of labor experiences. The prevalence of labor experience was 6.8-44%. Factors related to childbirth experiences included: individuals, such as age, parity, fear, self-efficacy, participation, control, expectations, preparation, and interpersonal, such as husband support, caregiver support, unwanted medical problems, such as prolonged labor, stimulation, and induction, forceps delivery, emergency cesarean section, and use of analgesics in mothers, low APGAR scores and transfer to the NICU.Conclusion: This review showed the various factors associated with the childbirth experience. This finding suggests conducting further research into the reason these factors influence the experience of labor.
