“…In Sub-Sahara Africa, the uptake of antenatal care (ANC) services is exceptionally low, 68 %of women reported at least one antenatal visit. The number of regions remaining in the world ranges from 82% to 86% [22]. Poor pregnancy outcomes are more egregious in unbooked cases than in booked cases.…”

BackgroundAdverse neonatal outcomes are affected by maternal and fetal factors, it is the occurrence of Low Birth Weight (LBW), preterm delivery, low Apgar scores at first and fifth minutes after birth, early or late neonatal death, small for gestational age, and/or severe neonatal conditions. PurposeThis study aimed to determine the association of adverse neonatal outcomes with demographic and obstetric factors among displaced women. MethodologyThis was a descriptive cross-sectional hospital-based study conducted at Algabalin Teaching Hospital, a public hospital in Southern Sudan from January 2023 to June 2023. Data were collected from patient notes, the maternal information, delivery events, and neonatal outcomes were recorded using an interview questionnaire. ResultsA total of 200 women and their neonates were included, adverse neonatal outcomes were 25 (12.5%), intrauterine growth restriction (IUGR) 4(16%), intrauterine fetal death 3(12%), preterm labor 5(20%), early neonatal death 4(16%), need resuccitation1 (4%), respiratory distress syndrome (RDS) 5(20%) and hypoglycemia 2(8%), APGAR score <7 was 14(7%). Gestational age 32-35 weeks were 6(3%), with adverse neonatal outcomes were 6(24%),35+1-36+6 weeks were 6 (3%) of the total. Neonatal weight less than2.5kg were 18(9%), with adverse neonatal outcomes16(64%), with normal outcomes 2(1.1%), weight >4kg was 6(3%), with adverse neonatal out-comess4(16%), with normal outcomes 2(1.1%). NICU was 22(11%), of 20(80%) of adverse neonatal outcomes and 2(1.1%) in normal neonatal outcomes cases.Associated with rural unbooked, advanced age, emergency cesarean section, preterm labor, and medical illness. Postpartum hemorrhage (PPH) 3(1.5%), amniotic fluid embolism 1(0.5%), Eclampsia 1(0.5%), maternal death 2(1%). ConclusionThe study concluded that adverse neonatal outcomes associated with advanced maternal age, rural residence, low education, primigravida, grand multiparous, unbooked women, maternal uncontrolled medical disorders with pregnancy, delivery by emergency cesareans section, early and late preterm fetus, low birth weight, macrosomia.

A Seemingly Paradoxical Relationship Between Masturbation Frequency and Sexual Satisfaction

Despite many benefits related to masturbation, we know surprisingly little about how solo sex is associated with sexual satisfaction. Using questionnaire data from a probability-based sample of 4,160 Norwegians aged 18–89 years, we explored subgroups of women and men that differed in their masturbation–sexual satisfaction typology and examined whether sociodemographic, psychological, and sexual behavioral characteristics were associated with distinct masturbation–satisfaction patterns. A cluster analysis revealed four similar groupings for women and men, reflecting sex lives characterized by high masturbation/sexual satisfaction, low masturbation/sexual satisfaction, high masturbation/sexual dissatisfaction, or low masturbation/sexual dissatisfaction. While being younger, higher pornography consumption, and sexual variety were primarily associated with increased masturbation frequency, sexual distress and a negative body and genital self-image were more clearly associated with sexual dissatisfaction. Predicting different masturbation–satisfaction groupings also revealed some gender-specific findings in the use of pornography, and in the association between masturbation and intercourse frequency, which suggested a complementary pattern for women and a compensatory pattern for men. Our findings emphasize that the linkage between masturbation and sexual satisfaction warrants closer focus.
