Background: Allowing a birth companion is the basic right of a mother and is identified as an important component of respectful maternity care. The implementation of this intervention has been a challenge in heavy-load public health facilities in India.
Local Problem: Despite the proven benefits of the presence of birth companions on maternal-fetal outcomes, there was no policy of allowing birth companions in our hospital.
Background And Aim: Phosphate dysregulation is often associated with chronic kidney disease (CKD), and recent studies suggest that it may also be present in non-CKD patients with systemic conditions including iron deficiency anemia. This study aimed to evaluate the relationship between iron deficiency parameters (total iron-binding capacity {TIBC}, hemoglobin, and serum ferritin) and markers of proximal tubular dysfunction (the maximal tubular reabsorption of phosphate normalized to glomerular filtration rate {TmP/GFR} and tubular reabsorption of phosphate {TRP}) in non-CKD patients with iron deficiency anemia.
Methods: This was a hospital-based analytical cross-sectional study conducted in the outpatient department and/or inpatient wards of the Department of Internal Medicine, Swaroop Rani Nehru (SRN) Hospital associated with Moti Lal Nehru (MLN) Medical College, Prayagraj, Uttar Pradesh, India, between July 2023 and August 2024.

Background: Previous UK studies found that only 50-67% of patients are aware that anaesthetists are qualified doctors, and public knowledge of anaesthetists' roles was poor. This study aimed to assess patients' knowledge of anaesthetists and anaesthesia, to identify if there has been any improvement over the past two decades. A secondary aim was to determine if exposure to anaesthetists during day case surgery improved patient knowledge.
