“…The high percent of infection may be back to the majority of females in current work belonged to socioeconomic with lower and/or middle levels; this theory is supported by various studies that referred that the UTI has happened at a higher rate among pregnant females living in status with poor socioeconomic [13][14]. The isolated bacteria from the urine sample in the present work was E. coli and this agreed with the findings of previous studies [15][16][17][18]. The flora located in faeces serves as the source of E. coli that colonizes the introitus of the vagina and urethra to bladder infection [19].…”

The objective of this study is a measurement of some immunoglobulin's (IgM and IgG) and complement cascade (C3, C4) in pregnant women suffering from urinary tract infections (UTI) by single radial Immunodiffusion test 30 samples of urine and the blood were collected from pregnant female infected by UTI and 10 specimens were collected from healthy pregnant women in the period from December 2020 to June 2021 the samples were taken from pregnant female and they're aged ranging from 18 to 30 years. The results of the study showed that the levels of IgG is higher in those with UTI the mean is in the three trimesters respectively than in control and there's a statistically significant in the first trimester only with P≤0.05. In UTI patients, the results appeared a elevate in the level of C3 and C4 in those with UTI is higher in the first and third trimester, however, it's slightly lower in UTI patients than in control in the second trimester, there's no statistical significance between those with UTI and control. Otherwise, the results demonstrated that the level of hepcidin in UTI patients increased compared with control in the first, second and third trimesters respectively.

“…Pastore et al identified two strongest predictors of bacteriuria at prenatal care to be antepartum UTI prior to prenatal care and a prepregnancy history of UTI 17 . Same was observed by Sheikh et al 18 . This study also showed a high figure of UTI in women with a abnormal voiding pattern and positive past history of UTI.…”

Background : Risk factors of Pregnancy is a stress that may reveal a variety of medical conditions which includes hypertension, metabolic syndrome, pre-eclampsia, gestational diabetes and ischemic heart disease etc. Urinary tract infection in first trimester is not uncommon with different risk factors. So the objective of the present study was to describe the clinical profile and risk factors of urinary tract infections during 1st trimester of pregnancy. Materials and methods: A descriptive study was conducted in the Obstetric and Gynaecology Department of BGC Trust Medical College Hospital, Chittagong from 1st January to 30th August 2016. Total 100 women were selected to ascertain the frequency and pattern of urinary symptoms as well as the risk factors of Urinary Tract Infection (UTI) such as age, parity, past history of UTI and haemoglobin among women attending an antenatal clinic. All pregnant women at 1st trimester irrespective of age, parity and gestational age were included, while women with known underlying renal pathology, chronic renal disease, renal transplant, diabetes or taking immunosuppressant therapy were excluded. Informed consent was taken and data collected on a self designed proforma. All the women underwent complete examination of urine. Dipstick test was performed on midstream urine and urine was cultured incase of positive dipstick test and women with urinary symptoms. Data was analyzed on SPSS version 18. Results: Regarding age distribution of the patients and found more than a half (52.0%) of patients belonged to 20–25 years age group. The mean (±SD) age of the patients was 23.7±4.5 years with range from 16 to 32 years. Regarding the general examination it was observed that anxious was found 55(55.0%), mild anaemia 59(59.0%), fever 25(25.0%) and high respiratory rate 16(16.0%). Build, nutritional status, lungs and examination of breast shows normal of the studied patients. The mean (±SD) Hb% of the patients was 10.0±0.6 gm/dl with range from 9 to 11 gm/dl. The mean (±SD) total count of the patients was 8428.6±1746.9/cumm with range from 6000 to 10000 /cumm. The mean (±SD) differential count of the patients was 69.0±3.4% with range from 65 to 75. The mean (±SD) ESR of the patients was 43.6±5.4 mm in 1st hour with range from 30 to 50 mm and the mean (±SD) RBS was 95.7±8.7 mg/dl with range from 90 to120 mg/dl. Pseudomonas 23(23.0%) Klebsilla 15(15.0%) E. coli 45(45.0%) and Proteus 17(17.0%) isolated from urine of UTI after caesarean section cases. Abnormal voiding pattern 87 (40.3%). Illiteracy(15%) History of sexual activity(10%), Low socioeconomic (Monthly income < Tk. 10,000 / month) group(17%) Past history of UTI(5%) and Multiparity(14%) were found to be risk factors for UTI in 1st trimester in these women. Conclusion: The common urinary symptoms encountered in the studied women were abnormal voiding pattern followed by irritative symptoms. Majority of urinary symptoms were due to pregnancy related changes in the urinary system. Past history of UTI, sexual activity, lower socioeconomic group and multi parity were significant risk factors for UTI. JCMCTA 2017 ; 28 (1) : 21 - 26

“…Other studies have also indicated that a lower number of prenatal visits increases the risk of anemia (15). In studies conducted in Egypt, Pakistan, Libya, and Ethiopia, the prevalence of UTI was 32%, 23.9%, 30%, and 15.3%, respectively (3,(16)(17)(18). The combined overall prevalence of UTI among pregnant women in Khash was estimated at 49%.…”

Background: Urinary tract infections (UTIs) and anemia are significant disorders that occur during pregnancy, potentially leading to severe complications. Objectives: This study explored the prevalence of urinary tract infections and anemia, along with their associated factors, among pregnant women. Methods: A cross-sectional retrospective study was conducted with 700 pregnant women attending clinics in Khash, Iran, in 2022. A self-administered questionnaire collected data on the socio-demographic and clinical factors of these women. The data were analyzed using descriptive statistics and the chi-square test in SPSS software, version 22. Multiple logistic regression models were used to calculate the adjusted odds ratio (AOR) with a 95% confidence interval (CI). Results: The prevalence rates of anemia and urinary tract infections were 63.6% (95% CI: 59.8 - 67.1) and 49% (95% CI: 45.2 - 52.7), respectively. Significant associations were observed between anemia and the number of medical care visits, smoking status, the use of iron and folic acid supplements, history of abortion, and thalassemia (P-value < 0.05). Additionally, income level, previous history of urinary tract infections, education level, and syphilis were significantly associated with UTIs among pregnant women (P-value < 0.05). Conclusions: The prevalence rates of anemia and UTIs among pregnant women are high. Consequently, standard antenatal care services, as recommended for the early identification of risk factors, should be emphasized by the Ministry of Health and its stakeholders to mitigate the high prevalence of anemia and UTIs during pregnancy and their associated complications.
