Article The Relationship Between Health Literacy and Healthy Lifestyle Behaviors of Women With Preeclampsia(Assoc Medica Brasileira, 2025) Kolcu, Merve; Akturk, Nur Bahar Kuru; Ozturk, Gizem; Akkus, MineOBJECTIVE: The aim of this studywas to explore the relationship between the levels of health literacy and healthy lifestyle behaviors in women with preeclampsia. This research was planned as a descriptive relational study. METHODS: The data were collected from 251 pregnant women with preeclampsia who were admitted to a training and research hospital between February and July 2024. The Patient Information Form, Health Literacy Scale, and Healthy Lifestyle Behaviours in Pregnancy Scale were used for data collection. RESULTS: The mean Health Literacy Scale total score of the women was 76.25 +/- 14.48, and the mean Healthy Lifestyle Behaviours in Pregnancy Scale total score was 110.17 +/- 17.57. A moderate positive correlation was found between the mean total scores of the scales (r=0.365, p<0.05). CONCLUSION: As health literacy levels increased amongwomen diagnosed with preeclampsia, the level of healthy lifestyle behaviors also increased. It would be beneficial to integrate the topic of health literacy into prenatal care and pregnancy preparation classes.Article Comparative Cross-Sectional Study on Sexual Function of Couples During Pregnancy: Assisted Reproductive Techniques Versus Spontaneous Conceptions(Womens Health & Action Research Centre, 2024) Dulger, Ozlem; Dinmez, Sinem; Torun, Sebahat D.; Osmanoglu, Usame O.This study aims to compare the sexual functions of couples undergoing assisted reproductive techniques (ART) with those conceiving spontaneously during pregnancy. A total of 102 couples participated in this cross-sectional study, with 68 couples in the spontaneous conception group and 34 couples in the ART group. Data collection was conducted face-to-face in the antenatal clinic using separate "Descriptive Information Form" for women and men, "Female Sexual Function Index (FSFI)" for women, and "Libido Scoring System (LSS)" for men. Descriptive statistical methods, Chi-square and Fisher exact tests, t-test, and Pearson correlation test were used for data analysis. It was observed that the mean FSFI total scores of women who conceived spontaneously and through ART during pregnancy were at a good level (>= 30), while the mean LSS scores of their partners were at a moderate level (5-7). No statistically significant distinction existed among the groups. Further research is advisable by adjusting the sample selection criteria, such as gravida, duration of ART treatment, and gestational age.Article Citation - WoS: 2Citation - Scopus: 3A Rare Disease With Pregnancy: Castleman Case Report(Kamuzu Univ Health Sciences - Kuhes, 2021) Karaman, Ozen Esra; Kilicci, Cetin; Onder, Pelin OzdemirCastleman's disease was first described by Castleman et al. in 1956 as a non-lymphoproliferative disease.1 Castleman's disease (CD), or angiofollicular lymphoid hyperplasia, is a rare disease with unknown etiology that can be easily misdiagnosed as lymphoma, neoplasm, or infection. Very few cases of pelvic origin and observed in pregnancy have been reported in the literature and are usually asymptomatic. Preoperative diagnosis is very difficult due to nonspecific imaging findings and rarity; most cases are diagnosed based on postoperative pathological examination. In this paper, a case of a 36-year-old pregnant woman suspected of adnexal origin in the uterine posterolateral, which was detected incidentally by ultrasound, was presented. The patient underwent a successful mass excision. Pathology of mass observed to be in the pelvic retroperitoneum was detected as localized unicentric and hyaline vascular CD. The study was conducted to discuss the diagnostic tools and perioperative management needed to identify the retroperitoneal unicentric Castleman case.
