“…In a systematic review [30] describing pregnant adolescents that participated in integral prenatal care programs, they had a lower risk of developing pregnancyinduced hypertension (RR 0.59) than those following traditional prenatal care programs. This means that integral prenatal care programs focused on adolescents decrease the frequency of pregnancy-induced pregnancy by 41% [10].…”

Adolescent pregnancy is defined as that which occurs in a woman between 10 and 19 years of age. Approximately 10% of all women aged 15-19 become pregnant. It is estimated that 11% of births worldwide occur in this population. In teenage population, preeclampsia has a prevalence twice as high as that in adult population. Adolescent population is exposed to different maternal-fetal adverse outcomes such as preterm birth, low birth weight, and gestational diabetes mellitus, associated with the outcomes of preeclampsia like seizures, pulmonary edema, defects in coagulation, liver or kidney failure, and death. The risk of adverse outcome remained increased in adolescent compared to young adult mothers (20-24 years). That is why it's important to know the approach of preeclampsia in adolescent pregnancy. We will describe the principal chance in the adolescent pregnancy, related risk factors, major complications for mother and fetus, and management and late complication for both.

University desertion is defined as a withdrawal from the academic system that has a negative impact on the economic and social environment. Desertion is influenced by internal and external factors that affect students, institutions, and governments. A literature review shows empirical evidence concerning research conducted to solve the desertion problem. However, most of the studies we analyzed do not consider students' perceptions, which are a key factor in college dropout rates. For this reason, we propose some new factors that influence university desertion. These factors are supported by a study of 65 organizational and educational theories. To examine the influence of these factors, a case study was conducted with 3773 students at a public university in Ecuador. Logistic regression was used to determine the causal relationship between the identified factors and the students' university desertion. As a result, we established that when all the identified factors are present at the same time, the probability of a student deciding to drop out of college is 95% your paper to be published in the conference proceedings, you must use this document as both an instruction set and as a template into which you can type your own text.

INTRODUCTION University desertion is a problem that affects most higher education institutions around the world. This topic generates controversy among administrators, professors, and students [1]. Today, high dropout rates are considered a possible deficiency of the undergraduate education system [2]. This can be seen from the academic and administrative indicators presented by management personnel at universities and higher education control agencies. In 2016, the dropout rate in India was 15.9% [3], while in Belgium, it was 26.9%; in the UnitedStates, the desertion rate for first and second year students was 44.8% [4], and in Costa Rica, it reached up to 49%. According to the United Nations (UN), the 2016 university desertion rate was 40% in several Latin-American countries, such as Colombia and Ecuador, and was approximately 54% in Brazil. University desertion is influenced by a set of interacting factors that have a negative impact on students' decisions to drop out of college [5]. A literature review allows us to identify several studies related to factors that influence desertion. Nevertheless, these studies do not consider students' perspectives, which play a key role in university desertion. Consequently, the following study is based on organizational and educational theories and proposes 11 new factors that affect university desertion while taking students' perspectives into consideration. To examine the influence of these factors, an empirical study is performed with 3773 students. This article is organized into six sections. In section two, the literature review is presented. The methodology applied i...

“…The pillars for the intervention are evidence-based interventions and clinical services, while the supporting elements include community mobilization, stakeholder education, and working with diverse communities to enhance the likelihood that the evidence-based intervention and clinical services elements will have the desired impact on teen birth rates and ensure all strategies within each component are culturally appropriate and tailored to the needs of the community. 56 In recent years, communication, information technology, and mass media have rapidly evolved into a platform that provides innovative opportunities for engaging youth, including disadvantaged and hardto-reach youth and those turned off by traditional health education approaches. Besides the Internet, mobile technology and text messaging are also potential avenues, since texting has become the preferred channel of communication among adolescents and their peers, especially in developing countries.…”
