BACKGROUND: Skin-to-skin contact care practice is placing a naked baby on the mother's chest with no cloth separating them, in a prone position covered by a cloth or blanket. It improves the survival of newborns by preventing hypothermia, improving breastfeeding, and strengthening mother-to-child bonding. Nevertheless, it remains under-practiced in many resource-constrained settings. Therefore, the main objective of this study is to explore the spatial variation and determinants of mother and newborn skin-to-skin contact care practices in Ethiopia...

The human papillomavirus is known to cause cervical and anogenital cancer and benign anogenital and cutaneous warts. Both males and females can contract the virus during sexual intercourse and skin-to-skin contact. Communities in low- and middle-income countries, including Africa, are particularly suffering from human papillomavirus-related diseases, mainly cervical cancer. Vaccination is the most economical and efficient prevention strategy to control human papillomavirus-related diseases. Undoubtedly, to control all types of human papillomavirus-related morbidity and mortality, the entire at-risk, sexually active population needs to be vaccinated regardless of their sex...

Objectives: To evaluate the efficacy of breastfeeding or feeding of breast milk in reducing blood sampling pain in full-term neonates by comparing with other intervention measures. Methods: Related literature was searched from PubMed, EMBASE, Web of Science, and Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials (Central). Only randomized controlled trials (RCTs), which reported the effect of breastfeeding or feeding of breast milk on blood sampling pain in full-term neonates, were eligible. The primary outcome was set as pain score on scales, and the secondary outcomes as physiological and behavioral indicators...

REVIEW
Yuxi Xie, Brooke C Feeney
This narrative review describes the current state of the literature that has examined associations between non-sexual social touch (i.e., affectionate touch, touch therapies, touch with animals and inanimate objects that mimic social touch) and sleep quality. It also highlights areas for future research to clarify the links and to identify underlying mechanisms. Most existing studies have focussed on and shown positive effects of touch therapies (e.g., massage, therapeutic touch) on sleep quality in clinical populations...

INTRODUCTION: Establishing an adequate bond and attachment between a mother and child is essential for preventing pathologies and developing this relationship in the future. PURPOSE: To identify the factors related to a disturbance of the mother-child bond or attachment. METHODS: A cross-sectional descriptive study was carried out with women with a biological child between 6 weeks and 18 months of age. The Mother-Child Bond-Attachment Questionnaire (VAMF, for its name in Spanish) was administered to measure the bond and postnatal attachment together with a questionnaire containing sociodemographic, psychosocial, and health variables referring to the mother and the newborn...

BACKGROUND: Touch interventions such as massage and skin-to-skin contact relieve neonatal pain. The Parental touch trial (Petal) aimed to assess whether parental stroking of their baby before a clinically required heel lance, at a speed of approximately 3 cm/s to optimally activate C-tactile nerve fibres, provides effective pain relief. METHODS: Petal is a multicentre, randomised, parallel-group interventional superiority trial conducted in the John Radcliffe Hospital (Oxford University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust, Oxford, UK) and the Royal Devon and Exeter Hospital (Royal Devon University Healthcare NHS Foundation Trust, Exeter, UK)...

Sohane and Sélenn are twins and will soon be 6 years old. They had a birth journey often described as unusual, because they were born far too early, at 31 weeks of amenorrhea. Through the pen of their father, they share their testimony with us, looking back on this complicated period of which they were able to keep memories thanks to the photographs and stories of their parents.

Every child born prematurely has skills that professionals must support in order to promote their development. Motor and postural support constitute two important points in the strategies deployed in this regard. Other techniques, such as position changes and skin-to-skin practice, complete the care and monitoring of the baby.

BACKGROUND: Sirohi is one of the aspirational districts of Rajasthan which is also tribal-dominated. The maternal and early infant health indicators are worrisome compared to regional or national statistics. First-trimester registration of pregnant women is 54% in district Sirohi, which is much less as compared to registration in the state of Rajasthan (63%) and India (59%). Four antenatal care (ANC) visits of pregnant women are 32% in district Sirohi, which is also much less as compared to ANC visits in the state of Rajasthan (39%) and India (51%)...

Over the past decade, our laboratory has made significant progress in developing and refining vascularized mouse lung transplantation models using an efficient and highly reliable "cuff technique" of transplantation. This article describes a sophisticated and comprehensive method for orthotopic lung transplantation in a vascularized orthotopic lung model, representing the most physiologic and clinically relevant model of mouse lung transplantation to date. The transplantation process consists of two distinct stages: donor harvest and subsequent implantation into the recipient...

Background The femoral vein is commonly used as a pacemaker access site during transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR). Using an upper arm vein as an alternative access site potentially causes fewer bleeding complications and shorter time to mobilization. We aimed to assess the safety and efficacy of an upper arm vein as a temporary pacemaker access site during TAVR. Methods We evaluated all patients undergoing TAVR in our center between January 2020 and January 2023. Upper arm, femoral, and jugular vein pacemaker access was used in 255 (45...

INTRODUCTION: Breastfeeding to strengthen the immune system suggests allergy prevention as a possible option. The connection between breastfeeding and the development of atopic-allergic diseases is being discussed. The primary aim of this work was to investigate an association of the first early skin-to-skin contact following cesarean section with the development of atopic diseases within the 1st year of life.

Background and Objective: Childbirth is one of the most significant experiences in a woman's life. The manner in which childbirth unfolds and is experienced can be influenced by various factors, including the birthing environment and the woman's attitude and preparation. Taking a holistic view of childbirth, it becomes apparent that addressing the basic physiological needs during childbirth can significantly influence the comfort and sense of security of laboring women. The aim of this research was to assess the level of satisfaction among women with their experience during childbirth and to identify its determinants...

Breast milk is the optimal and essential source of nutrients for babies. Many women, however, do not breastfeed or stop early after giving birth, often due to lack of support. For newborns delivered by caesarean section, there is often a delay, or no skin-to-skin contact after birth; thus, early breastfeeding is not achieved. Separation, complementary feeding or pacifier use also limits the mother's ability to breastfeed. A quantitative, cross-sectional study was conducted. Sociodemographic data, the mode of delivery and postpartum circumstances, information on breastfeeding, and the method and duration of feeding were collected (n = 2008)...
