BACKGROUND Postnatal depression is a public health problem requiring intervention. To provide effective care, information is needed on the experiences of those with high levels of depressive symptoms who are offered and accept, or decline, psychological intervention postnatally. AIM To provide the first integrated in-depth exploration of postnatal women's experiences of the identification and...

Information technology is currently developing very rapidly, one of which in the health sector. Current computer/machine technology, equipped with various capabilities, able to recognize human condition, related psychological health. Psychological often appears post-natal women; not a few women experience stress and even depression, some manage adjust well, but others fail disorders symptoms. T...

Natal dispersal may have considerable social, ecological and evolutionary consequences. While species-specific dispersal strategies have received much attention, individual variation in dispersal decisions and its fitness consequences remain poorly understood. We investigated causes and consequences of natal dispersal age in rhesus macaques (Macaca mulatta), a species with male dispersal. Using...

I present data indicating that Polistes dominulus females overwinter in multi-colony groups, recognize natal nest fragments after overwintering, and select nesting cavities based on cavity volume. In a seminatural environment, seven fi eld-captured P. dominulus colonies completed the colony cycle, and the resulting reproductive females were observed in hibernacula groups, on natal nest fragment...

The experience of animals in their natal or larval habitats has long been considered a potential source of variation in the habitat choices made later during dispersal. This idea has been of particular interest to evolutionary biologists because of the role such variation plays in the formation of host races and species. However, experiments that have tested for the effect of natal experience o...

AIM to investigate association between growth disorders in pre and post natal period and abnormal lipid profile in adolescents aged 12 -15 years old in Tanjungsari population. METHODS a cohort study was conducted in 3350 children who were born in 1988-1990 in Tanjungsari Subdistrict, Sumedang, West Java. A complete anthropometric data since their birth were collected from October 2002-Februar...

BACKGROUND Stress results in hyperactivity of the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis, characterized by increased central CRF activity, elevated circulating glucocorticoid levels, impaired glucocorticoid-mediated negative feedback and abnormal hippocampal functions, possibly contributing to the development of behavioral pathologies, such as depression. The hippocampus is critically involv...

Background: Despite public perception to the contrary, pregnancy does not offer a protective effect for suicide ideation. In low and middle income countries (LMIC) multiple concurrent risk factors including unplanned pregnancies, testing for HIV, intimate partner violence and depression may increase suicide risk among pregnant women. We examine suicide ideation among women attending routine ant...

Objective(s):Skin extracellular matrix, which contains type I and type III collagens, is involved in skin development. The aim of this study was to investigate type III collagen distribution pattern as well as its changes during pre and post-natal skin morphogenesis in rats. Materials and Methods: Ventral skins of Wistar rat embryos at different stages from 10 to 20 gestational day (E10-E20) a...

The possibility for all babies to be born and remain HIV-negative for the first year of life is achievable in South Africa. HIV-positive mothers' adherence to their antiretroviral medication is one of the crucial factors to achieve this target. Cross-sectional data were collected at 12 community health centres, over 12 months (2014-2015), from 673 HIV-positive women, less than 6 months pregnant...
