Pregnant women's perceptions of anemia and iron supplement consumption

Abstract

Anemia is a condition that is commonly indicated by low hemoglobin levels in the blood. This situation is proven by the lack of quality and quantity of red blood cells that consequently decrease the amount of oxygen transported into the tissue. The high incidence of anemia in pregnancy can cause high maternal mortality after childbirth resulting from pregnancy complications such as bleeding. A lot of research on the factors that influence anemia and the prevention of anemia during pregnancy has been conducted previously. However, there is still few of research exploring women's perception of anemia and the consumption of iron supplements. This Scoping Review aims to determine the extent of women's perception of anemia and iron supplement consumption. The method used is Scoping Review using Wiley Online Library, PubMed, and ScienceDirect databases. The research results that match the criteria are then analyzed with the aim of generating these articles. Appropriational study applied here uses Joana Briggs Institute (JBI), and the synthesis method uses PEOS modification. Six of the 141 articles relevant to titles and abstracts met the inclusion and exclusion criteria.

Periodontium in pregnancy

“…Subsequently a comprehensive prespecified and peerreviewed protocol. 11 Outcomes clearly support strong positive relations between periodontal disease and these outcomes and were extremely consistent across systematic reviews with low risk of bias. For a number of outcomes, there was supplementary evidence from within reviews that higher-quality chief studies supported this link.…”

“…[8][9][10] Dependent on the specific bacterial strain, P. gingivalis dental infection encourages preterm delivery and fetal growth restriction with abnormal placental vascularization in mice, P. gingivalis DNA in human chorionic villous tissue or amniotic fluid has been linked to recurrent early miscarriage or premature labor with preterm LBW, respectively. [6][7][8][9][10][11][12] Presence of P. gingivalis in the placenta or umbilical cord has been associated with preterm birth and preeclampsia. Published guidelines on oral health care during pregnancy note that it is an underdeveloped area and that the relevance of oral hygiene during pregnancy is insufficiently recognized by dental and obstetric health professionals.…”

Malaysian socio-demographic characteristics, mean haemoglobin levels and BMI distribution of the monthly transfused group (MTG) and non-monthly transfused group (NMTG) thalassemia patients

“…There were other reports highlighting the advantages of this method which are used to generate stabilized genes of the patient's hematopoietic stem cell (HSC) that lead to effective erythropoiesis and avoid the haemolytic anaemia in thalassemia patients thus there is no need for blood transfusions. Two main obstacles while implementing a secured and efficient gene therapy are by providing an adequate amount of HSC cells as well as ensuring a safe transduce of CD34+ HSCs cells among the different levels of gene therapy [15].…”

Thermal and mechanical study of polymeric composites prepared from epoxy with iron filings

“…as shown in Table (1) and From Figure (4), it was found that the Impact resistance of epoxy is low due to its fragility, but the values of the Impact strength increase after strengthening it with Iron filings because iron improves this resistance because it bears the bulk of the Impact energy applied to the composite material [27]. temperature as a result of the relaxation of the bonds between the molecules of the material and its sliding movement, which gives it the possibility of absorbing part of the energy that leads to an increase in the energy needed to break [28], as shown in Table ( Figure (5) Relationship between Impact strength and Temperatures ℃ (8, 25,55) before and after reinforcement…”
