Investigating the Frequency of Placenta Previa and the Associated Risk Factors During Pregnancy.

Introduction: Placenta previa (PP) is the abnormal implantation of the placenta over the lower uterine segment, either partially or completely covering the internal os. It is a major cause of maternal and fetal morbidity and mortality. This study aimed to determine its frequency and evaluate the risk factors for PP among pregnant women.

Prevalence and Predictors of Stress Among Caregivers of Children with Developmental Disorders.

Medical care advances pose challenges with rising caregiving costs and fewer informal caregivers, shifting healthcare responsibilities to families. Healthcare systems adapt to technological changes, stressing person-centered care but lack support for caregivers. Addressing parental stress is crucial, given its impact on both parent and child well-being, highlighting the necessity for customized support.

Evaluation of azo dyes degradation potential of fungal strains and their role in wastewater treatment.

In the present investigation, two fungal strains were exploited to evaluate their degradation capability on Synozol Red, Yellow, and Navy-Blue dyes which gave the utmost decolorization such as 40%, 70%, 90% by Aspergillus niger, and 36%, 73%, 87% by Trichoderma viride, respectively for 60 days. The Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry (GC-MS) analysis of the decolorized dyes suggested that various compounds such as Caprolactam, Furazan-3-carboxamide, oxime, 4-amino-N, N-dimethyl, 6H-Pyrazolo[1,2-a] [1,2,4,5]tetrazine, Hexahydro-2,3-dimethyl, Benzene, 1-propenyl, Dihydroxymaleic acid, Arsenous acid, tris(trimethylsilyl) ester were produced by the fungi which helped in the removal of dyes from the wastewater. The laccase activity of the degraded dyes was proof that both of the strains positively produced the enzyme that helped in the biodegradation of carcinogenic dyes into less harmful products.
