Pooled risk ratios with 95% confidence interval were calculated. Trial sequential analysis was conducted for the main outcomes to weigh the risks of type I and type II errors.ResultsFive studies involving 27,563 patients were included.

Despite the existence of established risk factors for postnatal depression, the role of the mode of delivery in influencing its prevalence remains a topic of debate. This study investigated the potential association between postnatal depression and the mode of delivery, specifically comparing the prevalence of postnatal depression in women who had a vaginal delivery versus those who underwent either an emergency or elective cesarean section. This study aimed to explore how different modes of delivery affect the prevalence and severity of postnatal depression among women in Jordan.MethodsA cross-sectional study was conducted at Jordan University Hospital between January and April 2024 to assess postnatal depression among women who delivered singleton fetuses 1 week after delivery. The participants completed a self-reported questionnaire, which collected demographic data and responses to the Edinburgh Postnatal Depression Scale. These responses were used to evaluate postnatal depression symptoms.ResultsA total of 267 women participated in the study. Results showed no significant association or difference in the postnatal depression scores between different modes of delivery (p = 0.459 and 0.441). Moreover, gestational age at the time of delivery and the infant feeding method after delivery showed no significant differences in the postnatal depression scores (p = 0.681 and 0.537, respectively). Results showed that the occurrence of intrapartum complications was associated with an approximately two times greater risk of developing postnatal depression (adjusted odds ratio = 1.96, p = 0.013).DiscussionThis study found no clear relationship between the mode of delivery and postnatal depression, with similar depression scores observed across vaginal and cesarean deliveries. Peripartum complications were linked to a higher risk of postnatal depression, whereas factors such as age, occupation, and infant feeding method showed inconsistent associations. The results highlight the complex, multifactorial nature of postnatal depression.ConclusionsThere was no significant association or difference in the postnatal depression scores between the modes of delivery. The results suggested that factors other than the mode of delivery played a more significant role in the development of postnatal depression among the women included in this study.

It typically manifests as masses in the head and neck, accompanied with regional lymphadenopathy. This report describes the case of a 50-year-old man initially diagnosed with Kimura's disease 13 years ago, following surgical removal of a left submandibular mass. Subsequent recurrences involved the parotid and contralateral submandibular regions, requiring radiotherapy and intermittent oral prednisone therapy. After 6 years, he developed progressive proptosis and visual impairment, revealing multiple orbital masses bilaterally. A puncture examination of the left submandibular mass was indicative of Kimura's disease. Throughout the follow-up period, the eosinophil levels correlated with prednisone use. This case highlights the disease's capacity for multisite recurrence within the head and neck over an extended duration. The extensive orbital involvement without renal manifestations is a rare presentation. Long-term follow-up is crucial in Kimura's disease management, and oral prednisone can effectively control disease progression.</p>","PeriodicalId":16129,"journal":{"name":"Journal of International Medical Research","volume":"53 5","pages":"3000605251337422"},"PeriodicalIF":1.4,"publicationDate":"2025-05-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12075989/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143996050","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
