“…There is ample evidence that the presence of NTDs can be reduced if women receive FA supplementation in the preconception period [78]. NTDs, the risk of heart defects, urinary tract malformations and cleft lip and palate defects can all be significantly less prevalent when using FA supplementation during the neural tube closure; between the third and fourth week of gestation is crucial in this regard [91011]. In addition to the birth defects, FA deficiency during pregnancy may increase the risk of preterm birth, low birth weight and intrauterine growth retardation of the fetus, and it may raise the level of homocysteine in the blood.…”

Folic acid (FA) given before and during pregnancy reduces the risk of several birth defects, including neurologic, cardiac, urinary and other congenital anomalies in the newborn. Several studies around the world showed less than satisfactory awareness and intake of this important vitamin. We undertook the task of exploring this question among Lebanese women of childbearing age. Between June and November 2014, we conducted this cross-sectional study on women aged 20 to 40 years. The subjects, who agreed to participate, completed a questionnaire, which included questions on sociodemographic characteristics, lifestyle, and knowledge about FA roles during pregnancy, as well as their babies’ health. Seventy-six percent reported having knowledge about FA during pregnancy, but only a small proportion knew the benefits for taking it. Also, 93.9% of women took FA supplements during pregnancy, however only 33.6% of the participants took FA before becoming aware of their pregnancy. Public health interventions to improve awareness of FA’s roles before and during pregnancy are crucial to curtail birth defects. It is our opinion that it is a very fruitful preventive medicine tool in which every community should invest.

“…The minimum sample size was determined using the Schwartz formula, considering the prevalence of iron deficiency anaemia in pregnant women in Gabon, which was 11.1% in 2011. 9 The application of this formula allowed us to obtain a minimum sample size of 150 mother-child pairs.…”

Introduction: iron deficiency is responsible for serious neurodevelopmental disorders in newborns. Our objective was to study the martial status of the mother-child couple in the birth room of the CHUME-FJE. Patients and methods: prospective cross-sectional and analytical study, carried out from November 2022 to January 2023 at the CHUME-FJE including 150 pregnant women carrying a full-term, single pregnancy, without any sign of infection and their newborns who were to be born by vaginal route with good adaptation to extrauterine life. The iron metabolism was assessed by measuring serum iron, ferritin, transferrin and his biological consequence was appreciated by haemoglobin level. Results: 14.6% (n=22) of parturients had an insufficient iron reserve and 36.0% (n=54) had anemia, the mild stage of which represented 63.0% of cases. Among these anemic parturients, 18.5% had an insufficient iron reserve. In newborns, an iron reserve was insufficient in 8.0% (n=12) of cases and 30.7% (n=46) had anemia. Regular iron intake significantly improved maternal reserve (p=0.03). This positive influence of iron on the maternal martial reserve had not been observed on the martial reserve of their newborns (p=0.56). The increase in hemoglobin and serum iron levels of newborns were associated with the increase in hemoglobin (r= 0.05, p=0.0001) and serum iron levels of their mothers (r= 0.452, p=0.0001). Conclusion: the rate of iron deficiency in the mother-child couple is considerable and challenges. This suggests a real intervention in the population of pregnant women.

Республиканский научный центр сердечно-сосудистой хирургии, душанбе, Республика таджикистан 2 Кафедра хирургических болезней № 2, таджикский государственный медицинский университет им. абуали ибни Сино, душанбе, Республика таджикистан В работе описан случай успешной диагностики и хирургического лечения аневризмы внутренней ярёмной вены (ВЯВ) у молодого пациента. Анализ существующей литературы показывает, что данное заболевание встречается относительно редко и мало изучено. Патология бывает, как врождённой, из-за недостаточного развития каркасного аппарата венозной стенки (отсутствие эластических и коллагеновых волокон), так и приобретённой, вследствие экстравазального сдавления или травматического повреждения. Из-за возможности развития двух серьёзных осложнений-тромбоэмболии лёгочной артерии и разрыва аневризмы с массивным кровотечением-заболевание относится к числу жизнеугрожающих состояний, в связи, с чем необходимы своевременная его диагностика и хирургическое лечение. Основным скрининговым методом диагностики аневризмы, а также инструментом для дальнейшего наблюдения за эффективностью проведённого хирургического лечения является ультразвуковое дуплексное ангиосканирование. На сегодняшний день предложено около 50 способов хирургического лечения аневризм ВЯВ, которые в большинстве случаев позволяют получить хорошие отдалённые результаты. Ключевые слова: аневризма, внутренняя ярёмная вена, диагностика, лечение, результаты.
