Objetivos. Determinar la relación entre la seropositividad a Hp y la presencia de náusea y vómitos durante las primeras 20 semanas del embarazo en gestantes de una red hospitalaria, entre marzo y diciembre de 2015. Material y métodos. Estudio de casos y controles no pareado en gestantes hasta las 20 semanas de embarazo. El índice de Rhodes para náusea y vómitos clasificó a las gestantes en casos (9-40 puntos) y en controles (8 puntos). La seropositividad a Hp fue definida como IgG ≥ 1,1 U/mL. La asociación entre Hp y náusea y vómitos del emb...

Objectives To examine the associations of Intimate partner violence (IPV) with stress-related sleep disturbance (measured using the Ford Insomnia Response to Stress Test [FIRST]) and poor sleep quality (measured using the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index [PSQI]) during early pregnancy. Methods This cross-sectional study included 634 pregnant Peruvian women. In-person interviews were conducted in early pregnancy to collect information regarding IPV history, and sleep traits. Adjusted odds ratios (aOR) and 95% confidence intervals (95%CIs) were calculated using logistic regression procedures. Results Lifetime IPV was associated with a 1.54-fold increased odds of stress-related sleep disturbance (95% CI: 1.08–2.17) and a 1.93-fold increased odds of poor sleep quality (95% CI: 1.33–2.81). Compared with women experiencing no IPV during lifetime, the aOR (95% CI) for stress-related sleep disturbance associated with each type of IPV were: physical abuse only 1.24 (95% CI: 0.84–1....
