BackgroundWomen often wish to discuss their pregnancy symptoms with their GP. However, the two parties’ understanding of symptoms may not be aligned.AimTo examine to what degree a specific pregnancy-related symptom worried women in the first trimester and analyse the characteristics of the most worried women.Design & settingA cross-sectional study was performed in general practice in Denmark from 1 March 2015–15 August 2016.MethodWomen attending the first prenatal care visit completed a questionnaire about pregnancy-related physical symptoms and worries. Women were recruited from 125 GP practices and 294 GPs participated in the study. Further data were obtained from their pregnancy health record. Multivariable logistic regression analysis was used to assess the associations between the women’s worries and the severity of the symptoms, which were adjusted for age and parity.ResultsA total of 1508 women, aged 16–45 years, were included and 1455 completed the questionnaire. Nausea, vomiting, pelvic cavity pain, and back pain were the most common symptoms, and 88% reported having two or more symptoms simultaneously. Among the 1278 women reporting nausea, only 21% were worried, while 88% of the 252 women reporting vaginal bleeding were worried. Primigravidae (those pregnant for the first time) were significantly more worried about vomiting and nausea than multigravidae (those who have experienced pregnancy previously). Those aged >35 years were more worried about pelvic girdle pain and pelvic cavity pain than younger women.ConclusionPregnancy-related physical symptoms are frequent in the first trimester. The severity of worries depends on the symptom. Vaginal bleeding and pain give rise to the majority of severe worries, especially among young women.

Depression and Pre-term birth are the most important and serious health problem now a days. For decades, while infectious diseases have had the attention of the global health agenda, non-communicable diseases have received little attention. Preterm delivery, which occurs in approximately 5% to 10% of all births, is the leading cause of neonatal morbidity and mortality. This cross-sectional study was conducted with the aim to determine the depression and spontaneous preterm birth among 275 women of Dhaka Community Medical College and Hospital during January to June 2011. Results show, 44.7% of the respondents are in the age group >20 years. Among others 32% and 23.3% of the respondents respectively are in the age group 20-25 years and <20 years. 70.5% of the respondents belong to Islam religion. At the most 45.5% of the respondents are illiterate and 59.3% of the respondents are housewife and rest of them service holder. Most of the respondents were live in extended family (60.4%). Out of 275 respondents, the number of depressed women was 67.3% where as non depressed women were 32.7%.Women categorized as depressed 56.2% had 1-2 children, vaginal bleeding in 3rd trimester were most commonly seen in 82.7% of them and were more frequently hospitalized during the third trimester. Gestational hypertension and Polyhydramnios were less prone to depressed women. There is a highly significant relationship of depression with parity of women (P=0.00), vaginal bleeding in 3rd trimester of pregnancy. (P=0.00). Also there is a significant relationship of depression with hospitalization of 2nd trimester of pregnancy (P=.038) hospitalization of 3rd trimester of pregnancy (P=0.020) among the women of Dhaka Community Medical College and Hospital.

Abstract A study by Yaruss and Quesal (2002), based on responses from 134 of 239 ASHA accredited graduate programs, indicated that approximately 25% of graduate programs in the United States allow students to earn their degree without having coursework in fluency disorders and 66% of programs allow students to graduate without clinical experience treating people who stutter (PWS). It is not surprising that many clinicians report discomfort in treating PWS. This cross-sectional study compares differences in beliefs about the cause of stuttering between freshman undergraduate students enrolled in an introductory course in communicative disorders and graduate students enrolled and in the final weeks of a graduate course in fluency disorders.

Abstract. Conflict avoidance increases across the adult lifespan. This cross-sectional study looks at conflict avoidance as part of a mechanism to regulate belongingness needs ( Sheldon, 2011 ). We assumed that older adults perceive more threats to their belongingness when they contemplate their future, and that they preventively react with avoidance coping. We set up a model predicting conflict avoidance that included perceptions of future nonbelonging, termed anticipated loneliness, and other predictors including sociodemographics, indicators of subjective well-being and perceived social support (N = 331, aged 40–87). Anticipated loneliness predicted conflict avoidance above all other predictors and partially mediated the age-association of conflict avoidance. Results suggest that belongingness regulation accounts may deepen our understanding of conflict avoidance in the second half of life.

The One

This investigation focuses on the question whether assessments of the development of internalizing behavior from childhood to adolescence are affected by the kind of research design (longitudinal versus cross-sectional). Two longitudinal samples of 432 second-graders and 366 fourth graders participated in a longitudinal study with subsequent measurements taken 1, 2, and 3 years later. A third sample consisting of 849 children covering the same range of grades participated in a cross-sectional study. The results show that the development of internalizing symptoms in girls – but not in boys – varies systematically with the research design. In girls, there is a decrease of internalizing symptoms (especially between the first two timepoints) in the longitudinal assessment, which may reflect, for example, the influence of strain during the first testing situation. Both longitudinal trajectories converge to a common trajectory from grade 2 to grade 7 when controlling for this “novelty-distress effect.” Moreover, when we control this effect, the slight but significant decrease characterizing the common trajectory becomes similar to the one obtained in the cross-sectional study. Therefore, trajectories based on longitudinal assessments may suggest more changes with regard to internalizing symptoms over time than actually take place, while trajectories based on cross-sectional data may be characterized by an increased level of internalizing symptoms. Theoretical and practical implications of these results are discussed.
