The food and nutritional insecurity experienced by pregnant women living in shelters following the 2023 earthquakes in Turkiye
Natural hazards may limit household access to food and water. Shelters and food aid were provided as emergency measures following the 2023 earthquakes (EQ) in Turkiye. Pregnancy is a nutritionally vulnerable time. This study investigated weight changes, experienced level of food insecurity and changes to dietary patterns in pregnant women displaced following the EQ. A questionnaire was developed to collect demographic and anthropometric data. We …

America's Changing Attitudes toward Homosexuality, Civil Unions, and Same-Gender Marriage
On May 17, 2004, Massachusetts became the first state to legalize same-gender marriage. From California to Missouri, nearly all states now face legislative challenges to the once firmly entrenched notion that marriage can only exist between a man and a woman. Public opinion polls conducted from 1977 to 2004 found that Americans' attitudes toward gay men and lesbians and marriages or civil unions for same-gender couples have evolved. Opposition pe…
Ethnic differences in perinatal mortality--a challenge
The perinatal mortality rates of mothers who delivered at St. Thomas's Hospital from 1969 to 1976 have been examined. The rate in the West Indian population was significant higher than in the United Kingdom white population. The increased West Indian mortality was confined to infants with a birth weight of more than 2.0 kg and a gestational age of more than 37 weeks. The relative risk of perinatal death for West Indian mothers compared with UK wh…
The influence of obstetric procedures and social and cultural factors on breast-feeding rates at discharge from hospital
The influence of obstetric factors on breast-feeding rates at discharge from St. Thomas's Hospital in 1969 and 1970 has been examined in 1356 primiparous mothers delivering healthy babies. Induction of labour and assisted delivery were significantly associated with lower breast-feeding rates. The association could not be explained by differences in social class, country of origin, birthweight, anaesthesia in labour, or medical reasons for inducti…
