Caesarean Section at the Rivers State University Teaching Hospital, Southern Nigeria: A Five-year Review | Chapter 05 | New Horizons in Medicine and Medical Research Vol. 9

 This chapter looked at the occurrence, trend, and indicators of CS at the Rivers State University Teaching Hospital (RSUTH) in order to enhance management results.

Between January 1, 2015, and December 31, 2019, the RSUTH performed 5,598 caesarean sections (3699 emergency, 1899 planned). The data was analysed using IBM Statistical Product and Service Solutions (SPSS) version 25.0 Armonk, New York. There were 13,516 births and 5,598 instances of CS throughout the study period, resulting in a prevalence of 41.4 percent or 414 per 1000 deliveries. 66.1 percent of CS cases were emergency, while 33.9 percent were planned. There was an increase trend in CS across the review period. The participants' average age was 32.301.04 years (95 percent CI:30.26,34.34). 35-39 years old was the median age group, accounting for 33.2 percent, followed by 30-34 years old (26.2 percent ). The majority of the patients were multiparous [3396 (60.7%)], married [4890 (87.4%), Christians [5540 (99%)], and had a tertiary degree [2800 (50%)]. Previous caesarean section (34 percent) was the most prevalent reason for CS at RSUTH, followed by cephalopelvic disproportion (75 percent), foetal distress (41 percent), preeclampsia (39 percent), and multiple gestation (25 percent).

The number of caesarean sections performed at RSUTH is increasing. Despite the fact that CS saves lives, efforts should be made to lower the rate to the WHO-recommended level, particularly in LMICs where CS is detested.

Status of Agricultural Trade in Asia Pacific Region: A Recent Study | Chapter 15 | Current Topics in Agricultural Sciences Vol. 2

 The purpose of this study was to determine the growth rate of agricultural exports and imports in major Asian Pacific countries as well as the broader Asia Pacific area. Data over a 27-year period, from 1992 to 2018, is used in the analysis. Indonesia has the highest compound annual growth rate for agricultural commodity exports in terms of value (10.28 percent), followed by India (9.52 percent), China (8.60 percent), Thailand (6.30 percent), and Australia (6.30 percent) (4.68 percent ). Due to a growth in the unit value of commodities, agricultural commodity exports for key exporting countries in Asia Pacific have shown an upward tendency in terms of value. Agriculture exports from the Asia Pacific region and the rest of the globe grew at a positive and significant annual pace of 7.90% and 7.09%, respectively. India, China, Indonesia, Republic of Korea, and Japan, the key importing countries, experienced positive and significant growth rates of 12.92, 12.89, 8.64, 5.92, and 1.78 percent each year, respectively. Because of rising affluence, changing lifestyles, and fluctuating commodity prices, agricultural commodity imports are on the rise in terms of value. In addition, agricultural commodity imports to the Asia Pacific area (7.29 percent) and the rest of the world are on the rise (6.94 percent ). In terms of agricultural exports and imports from Asia, the share of animal and fibre products declined over time, while the share of vegetable and food products increased. Vegetable goods had a growth rate of 9.33 percent for exports and 9.29 percent for imports, respectively. Due to an increase in the share of vegetable products in agricultural exports and imports, the growth rate of both agricultural exports and imports is growing across the entire Asia Pacific area. Reforms are needed to liberalise logistics, facilitate the adoption of contemporary information and communication technologies, promote competition among service providers, and improve access to credit and trade financing.

In Nagaur and Jodhpur, there was a strong negative link between prices and Moth bean arrivals. In the Merta and Jaipur markets, however, there was a negative but non-significant link. However, the correlation between arrivals and prices in the Nokha market was positive, but not significant. Trend analysis of moth bean arrivals in the markets of Nagaur, Merta, Jodhpur and Jaipur showed a decreasing (non-important) trend with the exception of the market of Jodhpur where it was important. Nevertheless, the pattern values for arrivals in Over the years, the Nokha market has shown optimistic, though not major, trends. The rates of moth beans are depressed during the peak season. Government should therefore intensify efforts in the peak time in the procurement of moth bean at MSP. Marketing loans can also be used by farmers to withhold their goods for some time in order to receive remunerative prices during the mid-term and lean season. Credit facilities should also be provided for farmers under Gramin Bhandaran Yojana to provide village-level scientific storage facilities.
