Methodology: This cross-sectional study was performed at Department of Pediatrics, King Abdullah Teaching Hospital, Mansehra, Pakistan from October 2020 to April 2021. A total of 186 children of either gender aged 1-5 years and admitted with SAM were included. Children with SAM were given F75-proxy every two hours for 2 days and then were fed with a locally made formula aimed to replace F-100 (F100-proxy), 6 times a day for a further duration of 2 days. After completing three days at the hospital, blood was drawn for measurements of blood and serum levels of phosphate, potassium, calcium and magnesium. Results: In a total of 186 children with SAM, the mean age was 3±1.21 years while 100 (53.8%) children were aged between 1-3 years. There were 146 (78.5%) boys and 40 (21.5%) girls representing a male to female ratio of 3.5:1. Re-feeding syndrome was noted among 25 (13.4%) children. Conclusion: Children with SAM were found to have high prevalence of re-feeding syndrome. Early recognition with appropriate treatment can be the key to a successful outcome in these children.","PeriodicalId":20844,"journal":{"name":"Rawal Medical Journal","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.2,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"70840479","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Methodology: This comparative cross-sectional study included 70 pregnant and non-pregnant females who were enrolled at Tikrit general hospital, Tikrit from January 1, to July 1, 2022. Inclusion criteria include pregnant women with toxoplasmosis. Anti-toxoplasma IgM and IgG antibodies (Torch-IgG, IgM) and IL8 levels were determined in all women. Results: The survey indicated a high number (48.5%) among ages 20, followed by 40% among ages 21-29. At age >20 years, the most positive IgM and IgG cases were reported (3 and 12), respectively, while only (2 and 7) were reported at age 21-29. In women who had a miscarriage with IgM positive as (8.5%) compared to miscarriage (11%), while women with miscarriage and positive IgG as (10.5%) compared without miscarriage (70%). The study found pregnant women had higher IL-8 levels than the control group (p=0.0001). Conclusion: Those under 20 years old had the largest total, followed by those in 21-29 years age. There were fewer cases of positive antibodies (M and G) seen in women aged 21–29 (8 and 7 cases). The levels of IL-8 were significantly higher in pregnant women who had experienced a miscarriage with a positive IgM (8.5%) than in those who had not (11%).","PeriodicalId":20844,"journal":{"name":"Rawal Medical Journal","volume":"8 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135357644","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Randomly, 500 women were taken, 150 of them had history of consanguineous marriage.

Consanguinity and rural living (p=0.0001) and employment (p=0.0001) were substantially correlated. Consanguinity was correlated with congenital abnormalities (p=0.0001), recurrent miscarriage (p=0.022), and unexplained intrauterine death (p=0.036). Conclusion: Consanguineous marriage is prevalent in our region (30%), especially in rural areas and jobless groups, which increases prenatal abnormalities, miscarriage, and intrauterine mortality.","PeriodicalId":20844,"journal":{"name":"Rawal Medical Journal","volume":"10 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135358675","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
