“…According to section A's distribution of ANC mothers by age in years, 48% of them were in the 20-25 age range, 36% were in the 26-30 age range, and 16% were in the 31-33 age range. According to their level of education, ANC moms are distributed as follows: 24% of them have a doctorate degree, 44% have a high school diploma, and 32% have only completed their primary education [32][33][34][35][36][37][38][39][40].…”

Background : Oligohydramnios is a condition in which the amniotic fluid volume (AFV) is lower than usual for the gestational age. The volume of the amniotic fluid changes throughout pregnancy and increases linearly up to 34–36 weeks, which results in a reduced post-term gestation. This pattern facilitates fundal height measurements and pregnancy ultrasound analysis for the clinical evaluation of AFV. After the sonography has thoroughly scanned the belly, the largest vertical pockets of amniotic fluid can be seen that are free of the unborn child's body components or umbilical cord. Both single-fetal and multifetal gestations are considered to have oligohydramnios if the pocket is smaller than 2 cm. Objective : To assess the maternal and neonatal outcome of oligohydramnios among the ANC mothers. To associate the maternal and neonatal outcome of oligohydramnios among the ANC mothers with selected demographic variables. Research Design : Research Approach descriptive Research Approach. Setting of the study: the study was conducted at AVBR Hospital sawangi Meghe Wardha Population : ANC mothers. Sampling technique : simple random sampling .Sample size : 25. CONCLUSION : In order to analyse the maternal and newborn outcome of oligohydramnios among ANC moms, the researcher used a descriptive research design, which is examined in the section that follows the thorough analysis in this thesis. Under the headings of sepsis, perineal laceration, postpartum haemorrhage, premature membrane rupture, placental insufficiency, twin to twin transfusion syndrome, and cardiomyopathy, the mother outcome is broken down. Additionally, the neonatal outcome is broken down into the categories of low birth weight, APGAR scores at 1 and 5 minutes, reflexes, congenital anomalies, admission to the NICU, intrauterine growth restriction, birth asphyxia, foetal distress, delayed lung maturation, preterm birth, and stillbirth.The demographic characteristics did not significantly affect the maternal or neonatal outcome of oligohydramnios. As a result of the assessment and low levels of amniotic fluid found in this study, it is advised that all women increase their ANC visits in order to lower the risk of oligohydramnios in ANC mothers.

“…Since the start of the pandemic, several clinical trials have been used to determine the efficacy of certain existing anti-inflammatory and anti-viral drugs as alternative treatment for the disease (Bhatia 2021). Despite these attempts, there are still no drugs which promise to fully cure people from this new disease.…”

The World Health Organization declared the novel coronavirus, named as SARS-CoV-2, as a global pandemic in early 2020 after the disease spread to more than 180 countries leading to tens of thousands of cases and many deaths within a couple of months. Consequently, this paper aims to summarize the evidence for the relationships between nutrition and the boosting of the immune system in the fight against the disease caused by SARS-CoV-2. This review, in particular, assesses the impact of vitamin and mineral supplements on the body’s defence mechanisms against SARS-CoV-2. The results revealed that there is a strong relationship between the ingestion of biological ingredients like vitamins C–E, and minerals such as zinc, and a reduction in the effects of coronavirus infection. These can be received from either nutrition rich food sources or from vitamin supplements. Furthermore, these macromolecules might have roles to play in boosting the immune response, in the healing process and the recovery time. Hence, we recommend that eating healthy foods rich in vitamins C–E with zinc and flavonoids could boost the immune system and consequently protect the body from serious infections.

“…As of November 2021, a total of 7.370.902.499 vaccine doses have been administered [3]. Since the outbreak of the pandemic, few clinical studies have been conducted on the efficacy of existing anti-inflammatory and anti-viral drugs as an alternative treatment for the disease [4]. Despite the attempts, there is still no drugs have been developed to cure the disease, except a few vaccines that have been applied so far.…”

While the world is fighting against SARS-CoV-2, this virus continues to mutate around the world, infecting with new variants and causing the death of people. According to the World Health Organization (WHO) data, there were over 255 million confirmed cases and more than 5 million deaths globally as of November. To date, approximately 7.4 billion doses of vaccine have been administered. However, no therapeutic drugs have been found yet. By considering a significant part of the global population remains unvaccinated and the potential of the constantly mutating virus to become partially resistant to vaccines, it is understood that a healthy immune system is one of the important weapons in the fight against COVID-19. It is essential to consume food products containing sufficient amounts of bioactive compounds and micronutrients to strengthen overall immune functions and prevent this life-threatening infection. In the context of COVID-19, boosting the immune system has been considered a viable approach to both prevent and alleviate the infection. Bioactive compounds and micronutrients can present antiviral capacity either by interfering with target viruses directly by entering the defense mechanism or indirectly by activating adaptive immune system-related cells. This review presents the effects of bioactive compounds (phenolic compounds, polyphenols), vitamins (A, B, C, D, E, K), minerals (zinc, selenium, iron, copper, magnesium ), ω-3 fatty acids and probiotics on the body's defense mechanisms against SARS-CoV-2. It also provides information on the evidence surrounding the specific effects of these compounds to potentially reduce the morbidity and mortality rates of COVID-19 patients, and how they may act in key immunological pathways.
