“…4 Uterine inertia is a condition where there are no uterine contractions or initially, there are uterine contractions, then stop due to muscle fatigue, causing prolonged labor. 5 Several studies have reported a link between anemia and uterine inertia. Anemia in pregnancy can interfere with the transport of oxygen to the uterus it can cause uterine inertia.…”

Objective: To determine the relationship between ferritin levels and the incidence of uterine inertia in pregnant women. Method: This study uses a prospective cohort design. The study was conducted on all pregnant women aged 20-40 years who had antenatal care and be in labor at the Teaching Hospital in the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, Faculty of Medicine, Hasanuddin University. Data were analyzed with the chi-square test and the Mann-Whitney test. Results: Obtained 76 pregnant women where 44.7% of them had uterine inertia. The average ferritin level in the uterine inertia group was significantly lower (3.80 ± 2.84 ng/mL) than without the uterine inertia group (12.99 ± 11.40 ng/mL) with a value p<0.001. The average ferritin level in the mild anemia group was significantly higher (9.83 ± 10.35 ng/mL) than in the moderate anemia group (3.82 ± 2.51 ng/mL) with a p-value <0.05. Pregnant women with moderate anemia were found to be 4.68 more susceptible uterine inertia than pregnant women with mild anemia. Conclusion: There was a relationship between ferritin levels in pregnant women and the incidence of uterine inertia where low ferritin levels was risk factor of uterine inertia.

Background: Ascites is one of the most important clinical syndromes, caused by multiple organ disorders, characterized by abdominal distension with accumulation of fluid of various colors and consistencies depending on the etiology that are encountered commonly in canine practice worldwide. Although it has been reported from different countries including India but it has not yet been documented from Bangladesh. Objectives: To evaluate the successful therapeutic management of a clinical case of ascites in dog supported with its brief review for its appropriate application Materials and Methods: A female Spitz dog two and half years old brought for treatment with the history of abdominal distension on 1st November 2009. Clinical examination, abdominocentesis and laboratory examination of ascitic fluid were used for the diagnosis of ascites in dog. Results: Clinical examination revealed dyspnea, discomfort, lethargy, weakness, pale mucous membrane, normal rectal temperature 103.2 0F and distended abdomen with fluid thrill on palpation. Examination of ascitic fluid revealed clear white fluid (pure transudate) which is mainly hepatic origin resulting portal hypertension and hypoproteinaemia. Treatment with restricted sodium diet, antibiotic (amoxicillin), diuretic (furosemide; Lasix, Sanofi Aventis) and vitamin B-complex and C- vitamin supplement with regular monitoring assisted in successful recovery. The recovered dog survived for next five years up to 2014 and then died due to other reasons. Conclusions: This clinical case record on canine ascites with successful treatment along with review especially on the methods of diagnosis and cause-wise treatment would certainly help the clinician for proper management of the clinical cases of canine ascites.
