Prevalence of Iron Deficiency Anemia among Indian University Students in Indian Population
No full textBackground. Iron deficiency anemia (IDA) is one of the most common types of nutritional anemia in the worldwide and considered a major public health problem in developing countries especially in India. Therefore, this cross-sectional study was conducted to determine the prevalence and risk factors of IDA among apparently healthy India students at India University.
Method. Five hundred blood samples (326 males and 174 females) were collected randomly from medical students at India University. Participants were subjected to different tests including complete blood counts (CBC), serum ferritin (SF), serum iron (SI), and total iron binding capacity (TIBC). Moreover, a questionnaire was designed to collect demographics, food and drink habits, and socioeconomic status. Result. The overall prevalence of IDA was 30.4% (p = 152), of whom 54.00% were females (p = 82) and 46.0% were males (p= 70). Students aged 20–22 years were found more anemic with prevalence 59.2% than students aged 17–19 years (25.0%) and 23–25 years (15.8%). Statistical analysis showed regularly having breakfast had significant (p < 0.001) role in preventing development of IDA compared with irregularly having breakfast. Infrequent consumption of vegetables/fruits; meat, fish, chicken; tea drinking; low household income; smoking and khat (Catha edulis) chewing showed a significant role (p < 0.001) in provoking of IDA, whereas consumption of coffee and cola showed insignificant influence (p = 0.585; p = 0.513) on IDA.
Conclusion. This study revealed that the majority of university students, especially females, have IDA that might become worse by malnutrition, lifestyle habits, and lack of awareness. Our results suggest that IDA can be prevented by providing proper knowledge on the healthful diet, improved lifestyle, and harmful effect of IDA to the students

Chronic Endometritis in Women with Reproductive Function Pathology
No full textThe rate of endometritis among gynecological pathologies in women of childbearing age is associated with a large variability in the number of observations, morphological examination of the diagnosis, differences in the contingent of patients, and a large variability of the analyzed materials. Despite the expansion of the pharmacological base, endometritis, clinical signs and symptoms depending on the treatment can differ significantly, doctors face certain difficulties with the diagnosis and treatment of the disease in practice. This is explained by the characteristics of endometritis in modern conditions: drug resistance of pathogenic microorganisms, mutation of the etiological structure of the disease with the growth of viral flora, and long-term treatment.
 
Modern Aspects of Dietary Food Treatment of Gastroduodenitis After Coronavirus Infection
No full textIn some patients, the first signs of covid are not sore throat and cough, but nausea and gastrointestinal disturbances. The symptoms are similar to rotavirus and easy to confuse, but this is how the coronavirus also begins. Entering the body through the gastrointestinal tract, the infection causes inflammation - gastritis, enteritis. Chronic diseases - cholecystitis, pancreatitis can become aggravated. According to various authors, its frequency has increased by 2–2.5 times in recent years, which is associated both with a true increase in the number of patients with inflammatory lesions of the upper digestive tract, and with the use of new diagnostic techniques [1, 3]. No matter how trite, but inflammation can be defeated with the help of medications and while observing the diet. Diet for gastroduodenitis is the most important component of treatment. The theoretical method of research was used. Many articles and dissertations by international scientists were analyzed, which were based on various books, dissertations, as well as electronic journal
Prevention of Age-Related Macular Degeneration
No full textAge-related macular degeneration (AMD) is a common eye disease that leads to a significant decrease in vision and threatens with disability. According to official data from the WHO Center for the Prevention of Avoidable Blindness, the prevalence of this pathology is 300 per 100,000 people. The disease occurs in 40% of cases among people over 40 years old, in 58-100% - over 60 years old
Management of Pregnant Women with Cervical Cancer
No full textPregnancy complicated by cervical cancer is determined in the case of primary diagnosis of cervical cancer during pregnancy or after 6-12 months after childbirth. The number of pregnancies complicated by cervical cancer is small. In 1-3% of women with cervical cancer, oncology was first diagnosed during pregnancy. Of these, about half were pregnant during the diagnosis of the disease, the rest - 6-12 months after childbirth.
It is not known whether pregnancy increases the risk of onset or progression of cervical cancer. However, elevated estrogen levels and human chorionic gonadotropin are thought to activate the pro-carcinogenic effect of human papillomavirus (HPV) infection. Other researchers believe that increased blood flow and lymphatic circulation in the early phase of pregnancy with a simultaneous decrease in specific immunity and cervical dilatation may contribute to the development of cervical cancer
General Morphological Aspects Lymphoid Tissue of the Small Intestine
No full textThe article summarizes the basic provisions on the emerging ideas about the so-called immune system of the mucous membranes and, in particular, the intestine. Previously, the idea of cellular and humoral immunity was formed, then about the system of mononuclear phagocytes and, obviously, it is quite acceptable to isolate the immunity of the intestinal mucosa
A Modern Solution in Less Invasive Treatment Tactics of Complex Inguinal Scrotal Hernias
No full textThe frequency of occurrence of the inguinal hernias is 60% among other types of abdominal hernias. Accordingly, the problem of the inguinal hernias is very common, especially in men, and on average, hernioplasty for inguinal hernias is 40%. It is always difficult to find a solution in complex and complicated forms of the inguinal hernias. Depending on the traditional classification, the so-called gigant inguinal-scrotal hernia has a recurrence rate of 25-35% after hernioplasty. And according to the size and shape of this type of the hernia, scientists have different opinions on the choice of the plastic surgery. There is no clear classification of the size of the inguinal-scrotal hernias and the number of recurrences
