While most women remain healthy during pregnancy, they<br />may experience minor symptoms. Recognizing symptoms that could<br />indicate more serious problems is important, as pregnancy impacts<br />every aspect of a woman’s daily life.<br />Objective of the Study: This study aims to assess the effectiveness of<br />pranayama in reducing anxiety and stress among antenatal women<br />attending the antenatal OPD of selected hospitals in Anuppur (M.P.).<br />The study will evaluate the pre- and post-test levels of anxiety and<br />stress and determine pranayama’s effectiveness in reducing them.<br />Methodology: An evaluative research approach with a one-group<br />pre-test, post-test design was used. The sample included 60 antenatal<br />women attending the gynae OPD, selected through non-probability<br />convenience sampling. The study was conducted at Civil Surgeon Govt.<br />Anuppur District Hospital (M.P.).<br />Results: The study found a statistically significant difference between<br />pre-test and post-test anxiety and stress levels. The t test value (t =<br />27.01, p &lt; 0.05) showed a highly significant reduction in anxiety and<br />stress after pranayama intervention.<br />Conclusion: The study concluded that pranayama significantly<br />reduces anxiety and stress among antenatal women. This indicates<br />that pranayama can be an effective intervention for managing these<br />conditions during pregnancy.</p> <p>How to cite this article:<br />Shrivastava Y, Thampy B S, Anjum S.

The extended latent</div> <div> </div> <div>precancerous phase, spanning from initial human papillomavirus (HPV)</div> <div>infection to potential cancer onset, underscores the significance of</div> <div>screening as a highly effective prevention strategy.</div> <div>Material and methods: A quasi-experimental study was conducted to</div> <div>assess the effectiveness of structured teaching programme on knowledge</div> <div>and attitude regarding cervical cancer among women. The study was</div> <div>carried out in selected hospitals, Amritsar. A total of 50 samples were</div> <div>involved using purposive sampling technique whom met inclusion criteria.</div> <div>Data were collected using by self-structured knowledge questionnaire</div> <div>and attitude scale through interview methods. Data was analyzed using</div> <div>by IBM SPSS software version-27.</div> <div>Results: The study revealed that a significant increase in knowledge and</div> <div>attitude scores, both significant at the 0.01 level. These findings confirm</div> <div>the effectiveness of the STP in enhancing both knowledge and attitudes</div> <div>about cervical cancer among women. Consequently, the null hypothesis</div> <div>was rejected, and the alternate hypothesis, asserting the effectiveness</div> <div>of the STP, was accepted. The pre-test results demonstrated a positive</div> <div>relationship (r=0.716, p=0.001), indicating a significant correlation</div> <div> </div> <div>between knowledge and attitudes towards cervical cancer. The post-</div> <div>test results showed an even stronger positive relationship (r=0.911**,</div> <div> </div> <div>p=0.001), further emphasizing the robust association between increased</div> <div>knowledge and more favorable attitudes towards cervical cancer after</div> <div>the intervention.</div> <div>Conclusion: This study substantiates that structured educational initiatives</div> <div>can effectively bridge the information gap and positively alter attitudes</div> <div>regarding health issues such as cervical cancer. This underscores the</div> <div>potential of such programs in promoting better health outcomes through</div> <div>informed decision-making and proactive health behaviors, thereby</div> <div>advocating for their broader application with in public health strategies.</div> <div> </div> <div>How to cite this article:<br />Bhat P, Sharma K.

Intercornual angle<br />is obtuse in bicornuate uterus and outcome is poorer than uterus<br />didelphys . Bicornuate uterus is commonly associated with recurrent<br />abortions and preterm deliveries. Many of the cases are asymptomatic,<br />but it is important to suspect and consider this diagnosis in recurrent<br />miscarriages, preterm delivery, intrauterine growth retardation and<br />malpresentations. We report a case of 28 year female primigravida,<br />diagnosed with bicornuate uterus. Patient delivered preterm live baby<br />through caesarean section.
