An amniocentesis is a prenatal procedure where a small amount of amniotic fluid is removed from the amniotic sac surrounding the fetus using a hollow needle. The fluid is tested for genetic disorders and chromosomal abnormalities. While the risk of miscarriage is low, around 1 in 1,600, it cannot be ruled out. The procedure takes about 45 minutes under ultrasound guidance. Genetic counseling is provided to discuss options if abnormalities are detected.

Lecture on prenatal genetic diagnostic techniques and their value in detection of prenatal genetic anomalies. This lecture details techniques employed in the common diagnostic interventions used in prenatal period and their usefulness.
Amniotic fluid maintain the perfect homeostasis between mother and fetus. It protect both mother and fetus from various complications. Details is enclosed in presentation.
An oocyte is a female gametocyte or germ cell involved in reproduction.It is an immature ovum or an egg
An oocyte is produced in the ovary during female gametogenesis.The female germ cells produce a primordial germ cell pgc which undergoes mitosis to form an oogonium
During oogenesis the oogonium becomes a primary oocyte
Oogenesis consists of several sub processes – oocytogenesis, ootidogenesis and the maturation to form an ovum
Folliculogenesis is a separate sub process and supports all three oogenetic sub process

Many complications can occur during pregnancy and affect health of mother and fetus as well as outcomes. Hemorrhage is the first ten causes of maternal mortality and morbidity, affect about 32% of all maternal deaths. Abortion represents 4.5% of all maternal death. Many women do not understand the bleeding is abnormal and dangerous signs and they come late to health care facilities.
Pregnancies can be designated as high risk for any of several undesirable outcomes. In the past, risk factors were evaluated only from a medical standpoint. Therefore only adverse medical, obstetric,or physiologic conditions were considered to place the woman at risk. Today a more comprehensive approach to high-risk pregnancy is used, and the factors associated with high risk childbearing are grouped into broad categories based on threats to health and pregnancy outcome.
SCREENING
Screening is a process of identifying apparently healthy people who may be at increased risk of a disease or condition. They can then be offered information, further tests and appropriate treatment to reduce their risk and/or any complications arising from the disease or condition.
ASSESSMENT
Assessment is a process for defining the nature of that problem, determining a diagnosis, and developing specific treatment recommendations.
FETAL ULTRASOUND OR ULTRASONIC TESTING
Fetal ultrasound is a test done during pregnancy that uses reflected sound waves to produce a picture of a fetus camera.gif, the organ that nourishes the fetus (placenta), and the liquid that surrounds the fetus (amniotic fluid). The picture is displayed on a TV screen and may be in black and white or in color. The pictures are also called a sonogram, echogram, or scan, and they may be saved as part of your baby's record.

Prenatal diagnostic procedures are medical tests performed during pregnancy to assess the health of the fetus.
These procedures are typically recommended when there is an increased risk of certain genetic or chromosomal disorders, or when there are concerns about the baby's development.
It's important to note that these procedures carry some level of risk, and decisions regarding their use should be made after careful consideration of the potential benefits and drawbacks.

Recomendações da OMS sobre cuidados maternos e neonatais para uma experiência pós-natal positiva.
Em consonância com os ODS – Objetivos do Desenvolvimento Sustentável e a Estratégia Global para a Saúde das Mulheres, Crianças e Adolescentes, e aplicando uma abordagem baseada nos direitos humanos, os esforços de cuidados pós-natais devem expandir-se para além da cobertura e da simples sobrevivência, de modo a incluir cuidados de qualidade.
Estas diretrizes visam melhorar a qualidade dos cuidados pós-natais essenciais e de rotina prestados às mulheres e aos recém-nascidos, com o objetivo final de melhorar a saúde e o bem-estar materno e neonatal.
Uma “experiência pós-natal positiva” é um resultado importante para todas as mulheres que dão à luz e para os seus recém-nascidos, estabelecendo as bases para a melhoria da saúde e do bem-estar a curto e longo prazo. Uma experiência pós-natal positiva é definida como aquela em que as mulheres, pessoas que gestam, os recém-nascidos, os casais, os pais, os cuidadores e as famílias recebem informação consistente, garantia e apoio de profissionais de saúde motivados; e onde um sistema de saúde flexível e com recursos reconheça as necessidades das mulheres e dos bebês e respeite o seu contexto cultural.
Estas diretrizes consolidadas apresentam algumas recomendações novas e já bem fundamentadas sobre cuidados pós-natais de rotina para mulheres e neonatos que recebem cuidados no pós-parto em unidades de saúde ou na comunidade, independentemente dos recursos disponíveis.
É fornecido um conjunto abrangente de recomendações para cuidados durante o período puerperal, com ênfase nos cuidados essenciais que todas as mulheres e recém-nascidos devem receber, e com a devida atenção à qualidade dos cuidados; isto é, a entrega e a experiência do cuidado recebido. Estas diretrizes atualizam e ampliam as recomendações da OMS de 2014 sobre cuidados pós-natais da mãe e do recém-nascido e complementam as atuais diretrizes da OMS sobre a gestão de complicações pós-natais.
O estabelecimento da amamentação e o manejo das principais intercorrências é contemplada.
Recomendamos muito.
Vamos discutir essas recomendações no nosso curso de pós-graduação em Aleitamento no Instituto Ciclos.

RESULTS: Overall life span (LS) was 2252.1±1742.5 days and cumulative 5-year survival (5YS) reached 73.2%, 10 years – 64.8%, 20 years – 42.5%. 513 LCP lived more than 5 years (LS=3124.6±1525.6 days), 148 LCP – more than 10 years (LS=5054.4±1504.1 days).199 LCP died because of LC (LS=562.7±374.5 days). 5YS of LCP after bi/lobectomies was significantly superior in comparison with LCP after pneumonectomies (78.1% vs.63.7%, P=0.00001 by log-rank test). AT significantly improved 5YS (66.3% vs. 34.8%) (P=0.00000 by log-rank test) only for LCP with N1-2. Cox modeling displayed that 5YS of LCP significantly depended on: phase transition (PT) early-invasive LC in terms of synergetics, PT N0—N12, cell ratio factors (ratio between cancer cells- CC and blood cells subpopulations), G1-3, histology, glucose, AT, blood cell circuit, prothrombin index, heparin tolerance, recalcification time (P=0.000-0.038). Neural networks, genetic algorithm selection and bootstrap simulation revealed relationships between 5YS and PT early-invasive LC (rank=1), PT N0—N12 (rank=2), thrombocytes/CC (3), erythrocytes/CC (4), eosinophils/CC (5), healthy cells/CC (6), lymphocytes/CC (7), segmented neutrophils/CC (8), stick neutrophils/CC (9), monocytes/CC (10); leucocytes/CC (11). Correct prediction of 5YS was 100% by neural networks computing (area under ROC curve=1.0; error=0.0).
CONCLUSIONS: 5YS of LCP after radical procedures significantly depended on: 1) PT early-invasive cancer; 2) PT N0--N12; 3) cell ratio factors; 4) blood cell circuit; 5) biochemical factors; 6) hemostasis system; 7) AT; 8) LC characteristics; 9) LC cell dynamics; 10) surgery type: lobectomy/pneumonectomy; 11) anthropometric data. Optimal diagnosis and treatment strategies for LC are: 1) screening and early detection of LC; 2) availability of experienced thoracic surgeons because of complexity of radical procedures; 3) aggressive en block surgery and adequate lymph node dissection for completeness; 4) precise prediction; 5) adjuvant chemoimmunoradiotherapy for LCP with unfavorable prognosis.

Ethanol (CH3CH2OH), or beverage alcohol, is a two-carbon alcohol
that is rapidly distributed in the body and brain. Ethanol alters many
neurochemical systems and has rewarding and addictive properties. It
is the oldest recreational drug and likely contributes to more morbidity,
mortality, and public health costs than all illicit drugs combined. The
5th edition of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders
(DSM-5) integrates alcohol abuse and alcohol dependence into a single
disorder called alcohol use disorder (AUD), with mild, moderate,
and severe subclassifications (American Psychiatric Association, 2013).
In the DSM-5, all types of substance abuse and dependence have been
combined into a single substance use disorder (SUD) on a continuum
from mild to severe. A diagnosis of AUD requires that at least two of
the 11 DSM-5 behaviors be present within a 12-month period (mild
AUD: 2–3 criteria; moderate AUD: 4–5 criteria; severe AUD: 6–11 criteria).
The four main behavioral effects of AUD are impaired control over
drinking, negative social consequences, risky use, and altered physiological
effects (tolerance, withdrawal). This chapter presents an overview
of the prevalence and harmful consequences of AUD in the U.S.,
the systemic nature of the disease, neurocircuitry and stages of AUD,
comorbidities, fetal alcohol spectrum disorders, genetic risk factors, and
pharmacotherapies for AUD.
Acute scrotum is a general term referring to an emergency condition affecting the contents or the wall of the scrotum.
There are a number of conditions that present acutely, predominantly with pain and/or swelling
A careful and detailed history and examination, and in some cases, investigations allow differentiation between these diagnoses. A prompt diagnosis is essential as the patient may require urgent surgical intervention
Testicular torsion refers to twisting of the spermatic cord, causing ischaemia of the testicle.
Testicular torsion results from inadequate fixation of the testis to the tunica vaginalis producing ischemia from reduced arterial inflow and venous outflow obstruction.
The prevalence of testicular torsion in adult patients hospitalized with acute scrotal pain is approximately 25 to 50 percent
2. WHAT is an Amniocentesis Amniocentesis is a procedure performed usually in the beginning of pregnancy to examine a baby's chromosomes. During this procedure, amniotic fluid is removed for testing. Cells within the amniotic fluid are examined in the lab to test for specific fetal disorders. The entire amniocentesis appointment lasts approximately 45 minutes — most of which involves a detailed ultrasound examination.
3.
4. What can be detected through an Amniocentesis? • Nearly all chromosome disorders, including Down’s Syndrome as well as sex chromosome abnormalities (such as Turner syndrome and Klinefelter syndrome). • Several hundred genetic disorders, such as cystic fibrosis and sickle cell disease. The test is not used to look for all of them, but if your baby is at increased risk for one or more of these disorders, in most cases amniocentesis can usually tell you whether he has the disease • Neural tube defects such as spina bifida
5. Is there any Risks with an Amniocentesis? There is a natural miscarriage rate throughout pregnancy. Although it's often estimated to be between one in 200 and one in 400, there's no real consensus on the actual risk of miscarriage due to amniocentesis. One large recent study estimated the risk to be as low as one in 1,600. Because a certain percentage of women will end up miscarrying in the second trimester anyway, there's no way of knowing for sure whether a miscarriage following an amnio was actually caused by the procedure. Your particular risk depends in large part on the skill and experience of the doctor performing the procedure. (Tests, Labs, and People do screw up on things many people abort a healthy baby or have a perfect baby when they thought they were getting say a baby with Down’s Syndrome)
7. 1. The woman's abdomen is cleansed with an antiseptic. 2. The physician may give a local anesthetic to numb the skin. 3. Ultrasound is used to help guide a hollow needle into the amniotic sac. 4. A small sample of fluid is withdrawn for laboratory analysis.
8. You will be offered genetic counselling so that you can get more information and discuss your options. Some women choose to terminate the pregnancy (ABORTION,MURDER,FEDICIDE) while others decide to continue. What happens if my baby is found to have a problem? 3 rd Trimester Fetus about to be Killed Photo taken from inside the womb.
