“…Depression is also common during gestation, a ecting approximately 10-15% of women [3]. ere have been several studies examining the relationship between NVP and depression [4][5][6][7][8]; however, the authors were not able to establish if depression preceded or resulted from the symptoms of NVP. In a preliminary study by our group, depression and treatment with antidepressants prior to and during early pregnancy were not associated with the occurrence of NVP; however, the severity of neither NVP nor depression were examined at that time [9].…”

“…ey used the 20-item Center for Epidemiologic Studies Depression Scale (CES-D) to measure depressive symptoms and a checklist to examine the frequency of occurrence of NVP (occasional, frequent or absent) to establish NVP. ey concluded that pregnant women without NVP had signi cantly lower CES-D scores than did women with frequent NVP, suggesting that depressive symptoms were positively correlated with NVP [5].…”

The development of Nausea and Vomiting in Pregnancy (NVP) is rife, affecting approximately 80% of pregnant females, where only 1% of these might progress to develop a severe form of NVP known as hyperemesis gravidarum [1][2][3] . NVP is commonly seen between the 5 th and the 18 th weeks of gestation, and affect the overall well-being of patients 4 . Importantly, the severity of the NVP varies among pregnants, and consequently, the management will vary as well. Although there are plenty of etiologies and pathophysiological theories underpinning NVP, it is still considered to be an area of controversy 5. The importance of addressing NVP lies behind the possibility of developing dehydration, affecting the pregnancy, affecting the quality of life, productivity, and might lead to depression 6 . Treatment modalities incorporate identifying trigger factors and avoiding them, utilizing pharmacological and complementary agents and supportive therapy 7-9 .Ginger (Zingiber officinale), which is a common ingredient in Asian meals, started gaining momentum as a treatment modality for NVP 10 . Noncompliance to medications and treatment plans is not uncommon among pregnant women which might be gauged by concerns related to fetus health 11 . However, herbal or complementary medicine tends to be more accepted as they are perceived to be a safer option although they might be not 12 . Hence, this systematic review aims at investigating the efficacy of ginger in relieving NVP. Although investigating the safety of this ingredient is imperative, the majority of studies included in this systematic review were conducted for a very short period (e.g. four days), and used different doses and dosage forms, therefore rendered this objective unachievable. AbstractNausea and Vomiting (N/V) are unpalatable manifestations seen commonly during pregnancy, which impinge upon the overall well-being, the productivity and might result in hospitalization. There is growing evidence concerning the efficacy of ginger in alleviating Nausea and Vomiting in Pregnancy (NVP). Therefore, we sought to conduct a systematic review to explore the effectiveness of ginger for NVP. A comprehensive search was conducted in Google Scholar, PubMed, and Science Direct which resulted in identifying five studies. These studies showed that ginger can improve NVP in a statistically significant manner (P< 0.05). Assessing the safety profile of this agent was difficult due to the short duration of intervention, and inconsistency in the dose and dosage form of ginger used. This study helped to glean evidence about the efficacy of ginger in NVP. It also emphasized the need for conducting more studies with a better quality and that are using standardized dose and dosage forms to be able to conduct a meta-analysis.

“…These complaints may have an onset in the first trimester and remain until the end of pregnancy and be observed in 75% of all pregnancies (3). It is reported that the severity of complaints might vary from one to another and even from one pregnancy to the other of the same person while they were seen at any time of the day despite its highest occurrence in the morning (4).…”

Eating attitudes, depression and anxiety levels of patients with hyperemesis gravidarum hospitalized in an obstetrics and gynecology clinicObjective: Nausea and vomiting are the first symptoms of pregnancy, and hyperemesis gravidarum is more severe form. The aim of the study was to investigate socio-demographic and clinical features, eating attitudes, depression and anxiety levels of this diagnosis in which etiology remains unclarified. Method: Fifty one hyperemesis gravidarum patients hospitalized in obstetrics and gynecology clinic of Okmeydanı Training and Research Hospital between October 2012-May 2013 were included in the study. Forty one pregnant women with no hyperemesis gravidarum diagnosis who applied to obstetrics and gynecology outpatient clinic were taken as control group. Socio-demographic data, features about family and marriage, medical and psychiatric history, family history and features about pregnancy have been collected with face to face interview. Beck Depression Inventory, Beck Anxiety Inventory and Eating Attitudes Test were applied to cases. Results: Socio-demographic data showed no difference between hyperemesis gravidarum and control groups. No significant difference in medical and psychiatric history and features about pregnancy was found between two groups. Family history of psychiatric disorder was found significantly higher in hyperemesis gravidarum group. Depression and anxiety levels were significantly higher in hyperemesis gravidarum group compared to control group. A significant difference was detected in eating attitudes of two groups. Discussion: Depression and anxiety levels were higher in pregnant women diagnosed with hyperemesis gravidarum compared to control group, and eating attitudes were more negative. There was no difference between hyperemesis gravidarum and control group in socio-demographic data and features about pregnancy, but family history of psychiatric disorder was associated with hyperemesis gravidarum. Psychiatry consultation might be useful in treatment and follow-up of hyperemesis gravidarum cases. Key words: Anxiety, depression, eating attitudes, hyperemesis gravidarum ÖZET Hiperemezis gravidarum nedeniyle kadın doğum servisinde yatan hastalarda yeme tutumları, depresyon ve anksiyete düzeyleri Amaç: Bulantı ve kusma gebeliğin ilk belirtilerinden olup hiperemezis gravidarum bu durumun daha ciddi bir hal almasıdır.
