Abstract. The Use of Tombstone Statues: Pre-Islamic Cultural Influence in Islamic Cemetery Complexes in The Bugis Ethnic Region, South Sulawesi. Unlike several previous studies that focused on the discovery and distribution of tombstone statues in the Makassar ethnic region, this research specifically examines the influence of pre-Islamic culture on the use of tombstone statues in the Bugis ethnic area, including Barru, Bone, Pinrang, Sidrap, Enrekang, and East Luwu Regencies. The study was conducted with the desk study method, reviewing various literature sources that document the presence of tombstone statues in the Bugis ethnic region, including the research reports of Archaeological Center (Balai Arkeologi), scientific articles, books, theses, dissertations, technical study reports, conservation, and zoning report from the Cultural Heritage Preservation Office (Balai Pelestarian Cagar Budaya), as well as other online reference sources. This research reveals that the use of these tombstones was suspected to be the influence of pre-Islamic culture, which had developed strongly in the previous period. This is evidenced by the discovery of megalithic statues in several areas in South Sulawesi and its neighboring province in Central Sulawesi, which functioned as ceremonial media and representations of ancestral spirits.

Published: July 2024

Background: Cervical cancer is one of the leading causes of death in women worldwide. Women living with Human Immunodeficiency virus are at higher risk of acquire cervical cancer. Despite the importance of screening, the proportion of willingness for screening among these women is low in Ethiopia. Therefore, this study aimed to determine the magnitude of willingness for cervical cancer screening and its associated factors among women living with HIV.

Methods: A facility-based cross-sectional study was conducted from March 14 to May 8, 2018.341 women were selected by using systematic sampling method among adult HIV positive women attending treatment at Jinka general hospital. The data were collected using an interviewer-administered questionnaire.

Bivariate and multivariable logistic regression analyses were used to determine the presence and the strength of association between dependent and independent variables by using odds ratio with 95% confidence interval.

Results: The status of willingness for cervical cancer screening was 56.9% (95%CI; 51.6%, 62.1%). Women aged 40 years and above (AOR=2.58; 95% CI = 1.21-5.45), having two or less number of children (AOR=2.49; 95% CI =1.3-4.78), having awareness about cervical cancer screening (AOR = 4.85; 95% CI = 2.56-9.17), high perceived susceptibility (AOR=5.02;95%CI=2.74-9.18) and low perceived barrier (AOR=9.87; 95% CI = 5.34-18.31) were found to increase willingness for cervical cancer screening.

Conclusions: In this study, the willingness for cervical cancer screening among HIV positive women was low. Age, number of living children, awareness about cervical cancer screening, perceived barrier and susceptibility were independent factors associated with the willingness of cervical cancer screening. Health care workers and cervical cancer prevention and control programs should create awareness by using different mass media. Health care providers should counsel on the above barrier for willingness to cervical cancer screening.

BACKGROUND
Early marriage is a harmful practice associated with serious adverse health and social outcome. It is common practice in a male-dominated society. Ethiopia has legislative provisions and stakeholders advocating for the abolition of early marriage, however, the practice appears to continue due to perceived ideal age, which has not been monitored regularly. The aim of this study was to determine the ideal age at first marriage among adolescent girls and assess the role of influencers for early marriage in West Hararge Zone, Eastern Ethiopia.
METHODS
Descriptive analysis of the ideal age for first marriage was done as part of a large cross-sectional survey. Participants were female adolescent girls 13-17 years of age, male reference groups, and female reference groups. Both quantitative and qualitative data were used. Data were cleaned with (SPSS version 20) and analyzed by STATA/SE version 13 and summarized by descriptive statistics. A thematic data analysis approach was utilized to summarize qualitative data.
RESULTS
The reported mean ideal age at first marriage by adolescent girls was 16.96 (95% CI: 16.81,17.11). The qualitative component of the study also revealed that girls still marry between the ages of 12 and 15 years. Family, peer pressure, marriage intermediaries, and community as a whole were found to influence decisions of young adolescent girls to marry early.
CONCLUSION

In conclusion, the Ideal age at first marriage of adolescent girls’ in selected districts of West Hararge is below the legal age of marriage in Ethiopia which is 18 years. This implies early marriage is still common practice in this study area. Since the role of family, peers, religious and community leaders were found significant, in addition to young adolescent girls, working with all influential group and community as a whole could be necessary to decrease and eliminate early marriage

Authors: Florent Fouelifack Ymele , Bambo Hetcheu Pascaline , Ofeh Anyimbi Mosman , Foumane Pascal 
Published: July 2024

Introduction
Abortion is the termination of pregnancy before the period of fetal viability which is 22 weeks according to the WHO. It can be spontaneous or induced. Spontaneous abortion is one of the most common complications of pregnancy and represent 10 to 20% of pregnancy terminations. Our objective was to determine the factors associated with first trimester spontaneous abortion.
Methods
We conducted a case-control study at the Yaoundé Gyneco-Obstetrics and Pediatric Hospital and the Yaoundé Central Hospital, concerning women received from December 15, 2017 to June 01, 2018. The cases were women whose pregnancy ended in a miscarriage in the first trimester. The controls were pregnant women beyond 14 weeks of pregnancy. Data were analyzed using Epi Info 3.5.4 software. The search for associations between different variables studied was done by the odds ratio with its 95% confidence interval. P was significant for any value <0.05.
Results
In total we recruited 69 cases for 138 controls. The absence of daily walking, having a spouse employed in the private sector, not having had a prenatal check-up, the occurrence of malaria and history of spontaneous abortion in the 1st trimester were independent risk factors of first trimester spontaneous abortion, with respectively: aOR=4.83; CI=1.3417.38; aP=0.0159, aOR=2.90; CI = 1.51 - 5.58; aP=0.001, aOR=72.02; CI=7.86 - 659.61; aP<0.001, aOR=63.11; CI=4.18 - 952.02; aP=0.003, and aOR=65.01; CI=5.93-711.54; aP=0.001.
Conclusion
The absence of daily walk, secondary education level, history of abortion, the absence of prenatal check-up and malaria increased the risk of spontaneous abortion in the first trimester. Screening for these factors and intensifying campaigns for Provider Behavior Change Communication would improve the prognosis of pregnancies.

Authors: Dejene Tafese 
Published: July 2024

Background: Rupture of the pregnant uterus is life-threatening for the mother and fetus. Most ruptures occur in women who have had a previous transmyometrial surgical incision, typically for cesarean delivery. Rupture of the unscarred uterus is rare, but the incidence is increasing. It is associated with higher major maternal and neonatal morbidity than cases of rupture of the scarred uterus.
Case presentation: Here we presented a case of 36 years old gravida 4 para3 presented at gestational age of 38 weeks with vomiting of ingested matter mixed with blood and abdominal pain of 12 hours and, initially diagnosed to have Placenta previa, severe anemia secondary to acute blood loss secondary to upper gastrointestinal bleeding, Intrauterine fetal death. Finally diagnosed to have uterine rupture and total abdominal hysterectomy done.
Conclusion: A high index of suspicion is needed in pregnant patients presenting with sudden onset of abdominal pain so as not to miss uterine rupture and its complications.
