    Get PDF
    Anemia remains a major public health problem among women of reproductive age worldwide, particularly in developing countries such as Indonesia. Limitations of conventional anemia management, including adherence issues and side effects of iron supplementation, have encouraged interest in complementary therapies such as wet cupping therapy (WCT). This study aimed to systematically map existing empirical evidence on the effects of wet cupping therapy on hemoglobin levels and hematological parameters in women through a scoping review approach. The review was conducted following the PRISMA-ScR guidelines. Literature searches were performed across multiple databases, including PubMed, Scopus, Google Scholar, and institutional repositories, resulting in 312 identified records. After screening and eligibility assessment, six studies published between 2016 and 2023 were included. The selected studies employed diverse designs, including experimental clinical trials, quasi-experimental, pre–post, cross-sectional, prospective cohort, and retrospective observational studies, with sample sizes ranging from 17 to 364 female participants. Across all studies, wet cupping therapy was associated with either maintenance or improvement of hemoglobin levels, as well as favorable changes in iron, total iron-binding capacity, and other biochemical parameters. No evidence indicated that WCT caused anemia when administered appropriately. Overall, the findings suggest that wet cupping therapy may serve as a safe and potentially beneficial complementary intervention for improving hematological status in women. However, further research using randomized controlled trials and standardized intervention protocols is required to establish its clinical effectiveness and inform evidence-based practice

    Sepsis and Septic Shock in Pregnancy

    Get PDF
    Sepsis during pregnancy is a critical condition that leads to organ dysfunction due to an abnormal response to infection. It remains a significant cause of maternal morbidity and mortality worldwide. The World Health Organization (WHO) reports a global prevalence of 4.4% of live births affected by maternal sepsis, with varying incidences across countries. Sepsis ranks among the top five causes of maternal deaths globally, contributing to 12.7% of pregnancy-related mortality in the United States. The physiological changes during pregnancy, such as increased blood volume and immune response modulation, create conditions that make pregnant individuals more susceptible to infections, complicating the timely diagnosis of sepsis. Due to these physiological differences, common sepsis screening tools like qSOFA and SOFA are often inadequate in pregnant patients, highlighting the need for specialized diagnostic and management strategies. Early detection and timely treatment are essential to improving maternal outcomes. Several screening tools, such as the Maternal Early Warning Trigger (MEWT) tool, have been designed to aid in the early identification of deteriorating maternal health. Once sepsis is suspected, prompt antibiotic therapy, fluid resuscitation, and vasopressor support are critical to prevent progression to septic shock. Additionally, controlling the infection source through surgical intervention or drainage may be necessary. Despite advances in sepsis management, challenges remain, particularly in identifying and treating sepsis in pregnant patients due to overlapping symptoms with normal pregnancy changes. Therefore, early recognition and appropriate intervention are key to reducing the impact of sepsis during pregnancy

    Endocrine Control of Fetal Growth, the Delivery Process, and the Physiology of Childbirth

    Get PDF
    Childbirth is a complex physiological process characterized by the expulsion of the fetus from the uterus, marked by uterine contractions and cervical changes. The timing of labor is crucial for favorable pregnancy outcomes and is regulated by the neuroendocrine maturation of the fetus. Hormones like estrogen, progesterone, and human placental lactogen play key roles in fetal growth regulation, with fluctuations influencing birth weight and placental development. Progesterone inhibits labor by relaxing the uterus, while estrogen promotes labor by stimulating uterine contractions and cervical changes. The transition from uterine quiescence to active labor involves multiple stages, from myometrial relaxation to enhanced contractility. Labor progresses through phases, starting with quiescence, followed by the onset of rhythmic contractions, active labor, and concluding with involution. Uterine stretching and the role of fetal lung maturation also contribute to labor initiation, as fetal lung surfactant activates macrophages, leading to inflammation and progesterone withdrawal. This process synchronizes labor timing with fetal lung development. In conclusion, labor is influenced by a combination of endocrine and mechanical factors, including prostaglandins, cytokines, and hormones such as oxytocin and CRH. Proper endocrine regulation ensures timely labor, while disruptions in this system, such as premature or prolonged pregnancies, can lead to increased fetal morbidity and mortality
