Leukoreduction of red blood cell units decreases dysregulatory micro RNAs during routine storage: An observational study with In-silico analysis.

Background: Red Blood cells (RBCs) bring about harmful consequences during storage. MicroRNA (miRNA) dysregulation in stored RBCs could represent potential biomarkers of storage lesions. Although leukoreduction prevents damage to RBCs, it is uncertain whether leukoreduction of RBCs would impact the dysregulation of miRNAs during storage.

Effectiveness of breathing exercise on the duration of labour: A systematic review and meta-analysis.

Background: Prolonged labour intensifies labour pain, and failure to address labour pain may lead to abnormal labour and augments the usage of operative interventions. Prolonged labour is common among women, resulting in maternal morbidity, increased caesarean section (CS) rates, and postpartum complications. It may bring forth negative birth experiences that may increase the preference for CS.

Outcomes of teleconsultation services and patient satisfaction among pregnant women delivering at a tertiary care center in South India during coronavirus disease 2019 pandemic.

Coronavirus disease 2019 pandemic has disrupted the antenatal care in low- and middle-income countries such as India. Telemedicine was introduced for the first time in India for continuing antenatal care. Hence, a questionnaire-based descriptive cross-sectional study is done to assess the outcomes of teleconsultation services, factors influencing it, and patient's perceived satisfaction.

Knowledge, perceived threats and protective behaviour related to COVID 19 among pregnant women.

Unlabelled: Pregnancy is usually a period of joy, happiness, and expectation for a baby. However, COVID-19 changed the priority and created an environment of worry, perceived threats, and increased protective behaviour to safeguard mother and baby against COVID-19.

Method: A cross-sectional study was conducted to assess, the level of knowledge, perceived threats, protective behavior, and factors affecting protective behavior among pregnant women by using a convenient sampling technique.
