    Objective: We aimed to determine the risk perceptions of women with risky pregnancies. This study aimed to enhance and reevaluate their risk perceptions after providing education abouttheir risks. Material and Methods: This educational intervention study aimed to engage 336 pregnant women out of a 2,664 population with high-risk pregnancies in Adiyaman, T & uuml;rkiye. In total, 444 pregnant women participated in the study. Participants completed the sociodemographic questionnaires, a pregnancy risk perception assessment, and a knowledge assessment related to pregnancy risks. The questionnaires were administered twice: once before the educational intervention and again 2-4 weeks after the intervention, allowing us to measure the effectiveness of the education. Results: After the educational intervention, pregnant women demonstrated a significant increase in both their risk knowledge and risk perception scores (p<0.001). Furthermore, we observed a positive correlation between knowledge scores and age (p<0.001) as well as first gestational age (p<0.001), while a negative correlation was found with gestational age (p=0.003). Additionally, a positive correlation emerged between the risk perception score and age (p=0.008) and the number of obstetrician visits (p=0.024). Conclusion: To enhance the risk perception, it is crucial to provide them with specialised education on this subject. This is imperative because every woman with a high-risk pregnancy is not only vulnerable to maternal mortality but also places her infant ata higher risk of infant mortality.

    (Cambridge Univ Press, 2025) Kucukkelepce, Osman; Konyalioglu, Fatma Sena; Kurt, Osman; Oz, Erdogan
    Objectives On February 6, 2023, seismic activity struck Kahramanmara & scedil;, with earthquakes of magnitudes 7.7 and 7.6. The study aimed to determine the effect of the presence of PTSD and its scores on hygiene behaviors.Methods This cross-sectional study was conducted in Ad & imath;yaman, T & uuml;rkiye, between September and October 2023. The study population comprised individuals aged 18 and above who had experienced the earthquake. The PTSD Checklist-Civilian (PCL-C) scale was used to evaluate PTSD, and the Hygiene Inventory was used to evaluate the participants' hygiene behaviors.Results Females, those with lower levels of education, the unemployed, singles, those living in tents, individuals who lost a loved one in the earthquake, and those with PTSD had worse hygiene behaviors compared to other groups. In the multivariate model of linear regression analysis of hygiene total score, only the PTSD score retained its predictive significance for hygiene behavior. More than 50% of the participants had scores meeting PTSD. The total PTSD score and the prevalence of PTSD among women was notably greater.Conclusions Mental health plays a pivotal role in shaping individuals' hygiene practices and behavior patterns post-disaster. Swift implementation of mental health interventions is crucial for the prevention of behavioral pathologies.
