Social media allows individuals to express themselves, communicate with peers and meet new people. Peer support is crucial for adolescent development and disease management. Young people with chronic conditions may not know someone in their offline life with a similar condition. A majority of young people with chronic conditions are interested in finding peers with similar conditions through social media. There is a gap in the literature regarding how young people with chronic conditions use their social media in relation to their condition. The purpose of this commentary is to discuss social media use in adolescents and young adults with connective tissue disorders (CTDs) and to explore future avenues for social media research in this population.","PeriodicalId":92765,"journal":{"name":"Clinics in mother and child health","volume":"18 1","pages":"1-3"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"69966947","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}

Objectives: To assess the level of knowledge and practice of mothers caring for children with an acute respiratory infection. Methods: Facility-based cross-sectional study was conducted at the hospital employing all consecutive mothers who brought their children to the under-five outpatient department (n=195). The data was analyzed by SPSS, and the finding was presented by figures and tables. Results: Among the included mothers more than half, 54.87% of them were within age group of 25-34 years. The study indicated that 70% of respondents had good knowledge, the rest 30% had poor knowledge on the other hand, and 57.15% of the respondents had a good practice on ARTI. Conclusion: Although the majority of the mothers had good knowledge, still a significant proportion of the mothers had poor practice about acute respiratory tract infection. Therefore, to further increase the knowledge and improve the practice of mothers about ARTI additional effort is needed. Furthermore, identifying the determinant factors by interested researcher is also valuable.","PeriodicalId":92765,"journal":{"name":"Clinics in mother and child health","volume":"1 1","pages":"1-4"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"69967188","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}

Ongoing pain during breastfeeding, concomitant emotions, and breastfeeding self-efficacy scores (BSES) have not been explored in association with EBF at 6 weeks postpartum. Research Aims: To examine the association of ongoing pain with breastfeeding, concomitant emotions and BSES with EBF outcomes at 6 weeks postpartum. Method: A secondary analysis of a randomized pilot trial of a breastfeeding pain self-management (BSM) intervention for 56 mothers (26 BSM, 30 controls). The BSM intervention provided self-management strategies for breastfeeding and breastfeeding pain. Using multiple regression analyses, associated symptoms of depression, anxiety, sleep, well-being pain severity scores, BSES, and group assignment was assessed related to EBF at 6 weeks postpartum. Results: EBF was significantly associated with Group, depression, anxiety, sleep, BSES, and pain severity, (F(6, 49)=5.751, p<0.000, R2=0.413) BSES (p<0.005) and anxiety (p<0.041) were significant variables in the prediction model. A second model which included Group, BSES, pain severity, anxiety, depression, sleep and well-being was significantly associated with EBF (F (7, 49)=4,728, p<0.0004, R2=0.403). BSES again, significantly added to the prediction, p<0.002. Conclusion: Examinations of EBF at 6 weeks should include evaluation of mothers’ ongoing pain and emotional distress, as mothers continue to breastfeeding even at personal cost. Early validation of breastfeeding challenges, ongoing pain, and emotional distress are needed to bolster mothers’ confidence in their breastfeeding skills, thus supporting their EBF goals.","PeriodicalId":92765,"journal":{"name":"Clinics in mother and child health","volume":"31 1","pages":"1-7"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"69967209","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}

Due to a lack of alternatives, many couples ultimately resort to In Vitro fertilization (IVF) with Intracytoplasmic Sperm Injection (ICSI). This treatment puts most of the infertility burden on the female partner and requires an invasive surgical procedure. The availability of IVF/ICSI has inhibited progress into the understanding and treatment of male infertility and put the female at risk. To overcome this negative impact on the female, there is a need to reinvest in the study of sperm biology. As recent examples demonstrate, sperm have many unknown factors – the sperm dark matter-that can help resolve undetermined male infertility. Directing research to uncover the sperm dark matter will ultimately lead to novel treatments of male infertility focused on treating the underlying etiology and not merely focusing on the female partner.","PeriodicalId":92765,"journal":{"name":"Clinics in mother and child health","volume":"18 1","pages":"1-3"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"69967086","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}
