Effect of prenatal counselling on compliance and outcomes of teenage pregnancy

To evaluate the effect of prenatal counselling on compliance for health promotion and pregnancy outcomes we conducted an experimental randomized control study on a sample of 86 teenage pregnant women attending the maternal and child health centre in Elkhosos village, Egypt. Data were collected pre-counselling, post-counselling and after delivery. At the post test, women in the study [counseling] group showed statistically significantly greater knowledge and compliance of health promotion [P < 0.001] than women in the control group. In the study group, 90.7% were full term at labour compared with 41.9% in the control group; 88.4% of the women in the study group had normal vaginal delivery compared with 76.7% of those in the control group. The health condition in 90.7% of the study group neonates was classified as good compared with only 46.5% in the control group. Only 9.3% of the study group babies had low birth weight compared with 32.6% of the control group babies [P = 0.008]

Some molecular responses of chlorella vulgaris to stringency induced by urea

A partially synchronized culture was obtained by the light-dark regimen. Higher order of synchronous culture can be induced by combination of dark incubation and CO[2]/N[2]deprivation. The different forms of nitrogen nutrition resulted in very different and growth habits of the population cells. The urea cultures had a lower nitrogen contents than the cells of NO[3]/NH[+4]treatments. Although urea possesses twice as many moles of nitrogen per mole as the other nitrogen sources, it was found that urea induce a "stringent response"; induce nitrogen starvation and idling in macromolecular [DNA, RNA and protein] biosynthesis consequently slowing the growth rate in contrast to that of other nitrogen sources. Is that peculiar protein pattern in ChloreIla upon urea supplied due to what is known "protein turnover" or the modifications of cellular structures and functions to following the actual response to environmental "Changes"
