RE: https://biologists.social/@biorxivpreprint/116530172372365984
Very interesting pre-print on C-section delivery and oxytocin and vasopressin.
Why voles?
"The use of voles as subjects here also offers several advantages.
First, voles tolerate room temperature housing well [36], without the metabolic [37,38], autonomic [12,39] and
neuroendocrine [40] consequences faced by mice housed at room temperature. Voles are undomesticated,
which means their OXT and AVP systems have not undergone artificial selection as in mice [41]. "#Csection #neuroscience #obstetrics #pediatrics #obesity #oxytocin #vasopressin #cesarean

https://www.mkuh.nhs.uk/wp-content/uploads/2022/10/Women-with-Disabilities-and-Special-Needs-Guideline.pdf "Appendix 1: MOTHERS WITH LEARNING DISABILITIES GUIDANCE TOOL
V
Value family – Involve individuals who best know the woman with learning disabilities as they can provide additional information that may be helpful to the decision-making process.
A
Avoid making assumptions – Do not assume that because someone has a diagnosis of a learning disability that they cannot be good enough parents
L
Look for support – Professionals should not work in isolation and should involve learning disability services for further support and guidance.
U
Understand emotions – Take into consideration that many mothers with learning disabilities have their own anxieties and worries about motherhood and fear of judgment. Do not assume they are being difficult.
E
Establish reasonable adjustments – Professionals should put reasonable adjustments into place to ensure women with learning disabilities can comprehend and understand information to give informed consent. I.E. easy read, pictorials, large font, visual and hearing aids.M
Mental Capacity – Do not assume capacity. In liaison with the Mental Capacity Act 2005, professionals should consider completing a Mental Capacity Assessment (MCA) to establish whether the women can give informed consent. Professionals should also consider best interest, Deprivation of Liberty Safeguards (DoLS) and involving an Independent Mental Capacity Advocate (IMCA).
E
Efficient discharge – Professionals should consider possible support that can be put into place to ensure a person-centered discharge is consolidated. Consider, access to health and additional services, transport, financial support and accommodation.THINK... VALUE ME"

Omfg. Read section 3.4 "Learning Disabilities support" on page 5. Literally everyone will be helped by these suggestions, not just diagnosed disabled people.
https://www.mkuh.nhs.uk/wp-content/uploads/2022/10/Women-with-Disabilities-and-Special-Needs-Guideline.pdf
"3.4 Learning Disabilities support
Although 7% of people with learning disabilities become parents ( Best Beginnings) the Equality Act 2010 obligates responsibility to service providers to ensure that reasonable adjustments are put into place to ensure the holistic needs of people with learning disabilities are met to the highest standards.
Remember to think VALUE ME! (Appendix 1)1. Early intervention strategies should be considered. Ensure that the community midwife is involved and if they are under 20 consider discussion with the specialist teenage pregnancy midwife for additional support.
2. Professionals should ensure that adequate time is provided for consultations, appointments and formal discussions. Taking time to allow the woman to understand the information in
order to make an informed decision.
3. Professionals should ensure that reasonable adjustments are put into place to aid with understanding. Including: easy read, pictorials, large font, visual and hearing aids.
4. Abilities led practice rather than inabilities led practice. Professionals should avoid making assumptions based on a diagnosis of a learning disability as often mothers will have their own anxieties, fears and worries regarding motherhood.
5. Avoid assuming that mothers are being difficult. Consider other possible reasons such as the environment, loud noises, bright lights (especially if they have a dual diagnosis of learning disability and ASD), sensory needs, stress and anxiety. Provide a side room if possible."#maternity #pregnancy #ObGyn #Obstetrics #pregnant #nativity #disabled #DisabledJoy #DisabledFedi #disability #MedMastodon #med #meds #medicine #medical

If you're a #doctor or #pharmacist in #Canada, you can read my newest story for the Medical Post/Canadian Healthcare Network.
SEPT 2024 -- Over a dozen live births in Texas have resulted among people with uterine-factor infertility after getting a uterus transplant.But there are still many risks and unanswered questions around the procedure—for both recipients and donors.
In a case series published in JAMA, researchers reported on the outcomes of 20 women who received a uterus #transplant. Of the recipients, 14 (70%) had both a successful uterus transplant and gave birth.
“It is the first time that we can offer women with this previously untreatable infertility the chance of becoming pregnant and deliver their own child. It is groundbreaking. It is also exciting that the children born are completely healthy and develop normally,” said study coauthor Dr. Liza Johannesson, associate professor at the Baylor University Medical Center in Dallas.
Absolute uterine infertility occurs in about one in every 500 women, traditionally leaving those who wish to start a family to either adopt, or where its legal and available, choose surrogate pregnancies.
Absolute uterine #infertility can be acquired or congenital due to either a dysfunctional or absent uterus, the paper said.
The year 2011 saw the first successful uterus transplant, and since then there have been just over 100 procedures conducted globally resulting in an estimated 70 live births. A total of 48 occurred in the U.S. since May 2024. Donated uteri can come from either living or deceased donors.
The Dallas Uterus Transplant Study (DUETS) began enrollment in 2016. Transplants were conducted between September 2016 and August 2019. The selection for donors and recipients was modeled after existing processes for kidney and liver transplants....

- I Survived 26 Days Of Tagging In O&G – Housemanship Diaries
In my previous article, I have talked about my experience as an EPAU (Early Pregnancy Assessment Unit) House Officer.
The ANSC (Antenatal Specialist Clinic) is a separate clinic of its own. Usually patients with other underlying issues comes in for follow up here and most of the time, it is combined with the Medical team. The operating hours are on weekdays from 9am till 12pm and 2pm till 5pm.
The joblists for ANSC is similar to that of EPAU. The patients over here will come in for scan and the medical officers are in charge of screening and scanning the patients. After which, the patients will go to their allocated specialists.
The job of the House Officer?
Our job is merely to record down scan findings or to call the patients or to take their blood or fill up blood requests forms if needed. There are instances whereby we need to request certain radiological tests or to get an outpatient appointment.
But that’s about it actually. The good thing about EPAU and ANSC is that we do get lunch breaks. Thus, it is something I always looked forward to.
Usually in the afternoon, it is a different clinic. Most of the time I would stay behind. Mainly because once we are done with the clinics, we are expected to return to Labour Ward and help out since our working hours are till 7pm. Thus, I try my best to delay my return to the labour ward for as long as possible.
My experience as a House Officer in both the EPAU and ANSC were both enjoyable and fun.

In my previous article, I have talked about my experience as an EPAU (Early Pregnancy Assessment Unit) House Officer.
The ANSC (Antenatal Specialist Clinic) is a separate clinic of its own. Usually patients with other underlying issues comes in for follow up here and most of the time, it is combined with the Medical team. The operating hours are on weekdays from 9am till 12pm and 2pm till 5pm.
The joblists for ANSC is similar to that of EPAU. The patients over here will come in for scan and the medical officers are in charge of screening and scanning the patients. After which, the patients will go to their allocated specialists.
The job of the House Officer?
Our job is merely to record down scan findings or to call the patients or to take their blood or fill up blood requests forms if needed. There are instances whereby we need to request certain radiological tests or to get an outpatient appointment.
But that’s about it actually. The good thing about EPAU and ANSC is that we do get lunch breaks. Thus, it is something I always looked forward to.
Usually in the afternoon, it is a different clinic. Most of the time I would stay behind. Mainly because once we are done with the clinics, we are expected to return to Labour Ward and help out since our working hours are till 7pm. Thus, I try my best to delay my return to the labour ward for as long as possible.
My experience as a House Officer in both the EPAU and ANSC were both enjoyable and fun.

EPAU of the Early Pregnancy Assessment Unit is like working in a clinic. Before I begin, allow me to express how much I absolutely love it when I am allocated as the “EPAU House Officer” for the day.
The hospital that I am practicing in is Hospital Umum Sarawak otherwise known as Sarawak General Hospital.
The working hours as an EPAU HO is from 8am till 5pm, with a lunch break from 12pm till 2pm. This is then followed by the continuation of work from 2pm till about 5pm.
Most of the cases seen here are patients who go for follow up most likely due to foetal growth restriction (FGR) or cases referred from Klinik Kesihatan. There are some cases whereby the gestation is yet to be seen in utero likely because it is too early but the pregnancy test appears positive, hence they are on follow up for scan of gestational viability after a week or two. In terms of gynae cases, most of the patients that come in are impending miscarriages or patients who have miscarriage but are on follow up to check on their B-hCG.
As an EPAU house officer, our duty is to first screen through the cases that comes in. As I mentioned before, some cases are referred while some are on follow-up.
Thus, we will screen through by writing their age followed by their gestation and parity and finally, any relevant antenatal history.
After we are done screening, we help out with writing the scan findings, calling the patients or helping to take bloods.
There’s not much that needs to be done actually but on certain days whereby the patient load is tremendous, it can get extremely busy.
However, being an EPAU house officer is a good experience and a good change of scene especially if you’ve been allocated to the ward always.

A woman lost her baby in Nanded. Why couldn’t a new medical college near her home save her child?
Maharashtra government’s scramble to open new medical colleges, without hiring enough doctors, may have contributed to the tragic deaths of 24 patients.
