Evaluation of Factors Affecting Perinatal Mortality in Patients with HELLP Syndrome by Reyhan Gunduz, Senem Yaman Tunc, Mehmet Sait Icen, Sabahattin Ertugrul, Talip Gul

“…Logistic regression revealed the APGAR score at 5 minutes as the most reliable independent predictive finding for perinatal mortality. CONCLUSION: We think that to decrease perinatal mortality rates, maternal and fetal well-being in patients with HELLP syndrome should be closely monitored and delivery and follow-up should take place at tertiary health institutions after maternal and neonatal intensive care arrangements are made. …”

The impact of internet use on physical activity among Chinese older adults: the mediating role of social support by Yifei Shen, Yifei Shen, Chuntian Lu, Bin Wang

“…Additionally, the SPSS macro PROCESS is used to test the mediation effect, examining the mediating role of social support in this relationship.ResultOur research findings indicate the following: (1) Internet use significantly and positively predicts physical exercise among the old adults; (2) Social support exerts a positive influence on physical exercise in this population; and (3) Social support partially mediates the relationship between internet use and physical exercise among the old adults.ConclusionThe study concludes that increasing Internet penetration among the old adults is of great practical significance in expanding their social support network and promoting physical activity. …”
