         <description><![CDATA[<p><strong>Abstract</strong></p><p>About 50,000 women dead due to result hypertension in pregnancy every year worldwide. Frequency of hypertension in pregnancy is 5-10% and complicate pregnancy. Control of high blood presure in pregnancy and therapy of hypertension are elements that prevent complication as a praeclampsia, eclampsia, abruption of placenta and operation end pregnancy. Aim of work is to establishing frequency of hypertension of controlled group of pregnen women and determinate results of pregnancy in pregnant women with high blood presure. The sample were 230 pregnant women which we controlled in Health Care Sapna. Hypertension was found at 7 pregnant women or 3.04%, at 14.28% was found chronic hypertension and at 87.1% was found gestation hypertension. Pregnant women were controlled, averagely 4 times and pregnant women with hypertension were controlled 8 times. Hypertension was treated with drugs at 6 pregmnant women with hypertension and one pregnant women did not take a medicine. 28.57% pregnant women with hypertension was delivered Caesarean section and 71.42% was vaginal delivery. Pregnancy of one pregnant women with chronic hypertension who did not take medicine was complicated of abruption of placenta and she was delivered Caesarean section. Pregnant women with gestation hypertension did not complicate during delivery.</p><p><strong>Conclusions: </strong>Regular control and therapy of hypertension during pregnancy can significantly reduce perinatal morbidity and mortality. Health educated pregnant women is important for control pregnancy as using advise and regular treating of medicine of pregnant women.</p><p><br/></p><p>1-What are some of the results anticipated in this abstract?</p><p>2-What can significantly reduce perinatal morbidity and mortality according to the text?</p><p>3-</p><p>Name at least five cognates.</p><p>4- What verb tenses are used in this piece of writing?</p>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<p><strong>Abstract</strong></p><p>Hemodynamic and metabolic effects of a lethal 5-hour infusion of Ps. aeruginosa at a dose 10(8) organisms per ml per min were studied in 39 dogs. Blood glucose, insulin, catecholamines, body temperature, WBC, and hemodynamic parameters were measured before and at 1-hour intervals during controlled bacterial infusions. Induced bacteremia in the upper 10(4) range per ml of blood was accompanied by a decline of mean arterial blood presure from 130+/-6 mm Hg to 84+/-12 mm Hg at 4 hours, hypothermia, leukopenia, and hypoglycemia. Death within 24 hours was associated with hypoinsulinemia and increased blood catecholamines. Survival was characterized by maintenance of arterial blood pressure, only moderate decline in blood glucose levels, and normal plasma insulin concentrations with little change in plasma catecholamines. Mortality could be reduced significantly by glucose administration. This was associated with correction of hypoglycemia, rise in plasma insulin activity and increased energy production.</p><p><br/></p><p>5-What is the tense used in this abstract?</p><p>6-What data survival chances revealed?</p><p>7-Name at least 5 cognates.</p>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<p><strong>Abstract</strong></p><p>Meditation training appears to be a promising psychological approach to the control of hypertension. However, most studies to date have had serious deficiencies. This study attempted to correct many of these deficiencies. Forty-one unmedicated hypertensives referred by general practitioners were randomly allocated to three groups. The treatment group (SRELAX) underwent training procedures based on Transcendental Meditation; a placebo control group (NSRELAX) underwent identical training but withou a mantra. Both procedures were compared with a no-treatment control group. The results showed modest reductions in blood pressure in both SRELAX and NSRELAX groups, compared with the no-treatment controls, with diastolic percentage reductions reaching significance (p &lt; 0.05). There was considerable subject variation in response, with overall a mean decline i diastolic blood presure of 8-10% on 3-month follow-up. Possible indicators to predict the response of subjects are considered and reasons for the similarity in the effectiveness of the SRELAX and NSRELAX conditions are discussed.</p><p><br/></p><p>8-What is the objective of this study?</p><p>9-What is the possible effect of meditation on blood pressure?</p><p>10-Name at least 5 cognates.</p>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<p><strong>Abstract</strong></p><p>The scientific breakthrough proving that antiretroviral therapy (ART) can halt heterosexual HIV transmission came in the form of a landmark clinical trial conducted among serodiscordant couples. Study findings immediately informed global recommendations for the use of treatment as prevention in serodiscordant couples. The extent to which these findings are generalizable to other key populations or to groups exposed to HIV through nonsexual transmission routes (i.e., anal intercourse or unsafe injection of drugs) has since driven a large body of research. This review explores the history of HIV research in serodiscordant couples, the implications for management of couples, subsequent research on treatment as prevention in other key populations, and challenges in community implementation of these strategies.</p><p><strong>Keywords: </strong>HIV transmission; Serodiscordant couples; Treatment as prevention.</p><p><br/></p><p>11-What does this publication explore according to what is mentioned in the abstract?</p><p>12- How would you define serodiscordant couple in Spanish?</p><p>13- Name at least 7 cognates</p>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<p>Abstract</p><p><strong>Purpose: </strong>To examine pregnancy rates and outcomes (births and abortions) among 15- to 19-year olds and 10- to 14-year olds in all countries for which recent information could be obtained and to examine trends since the mid-1990s.</p><p><strong>Methods: </strong>Information was obtained from countries' vital statistics reports and the United Nations Statistics Division for most countries in this study. Alternate sources of information were used if needed and available. We present estimates primarily for 2011 and compare them to estimates published for the mid-1990s.</p><p><strong>Results: </strong>Among the 21 countries with complete statistics, the pregnancy rate among 15- to 19-year olds was the highest in the United States (57 pregnancies per 1,000 females) and the lowest rate was in Switzerland (8). Rates were higher in some former Soviet countries with incomplete statistics; they were the highest in Mexico and Sub-Saharan African countries with available information. Among countries with reliable evidence, the highest rate among 10- to 14-year olds was in Hungary. The proportion of teen pregnancies that ended in abortion ranged from 17% in Slovakia to 69% in Sweden. The proportion of pregnancies that ended in live births tended to be higher in countries with high teen pregnancy rates (p = .02). The pregnancy rate has declined since the mid-1990s in the majority of the 16 countries where trends could be assessed.</p><p><strong>Conclusions: </strong>Despite recent declines, teen pregnancy rates remain high in many countries. Research on the planning status of these pregnancies and on factors that determine how teens resolve their pregnancies could further inform programs and policies.</p><p><strong>Keywords: </strong>Cross-national comparisons; Pregnancy outcomes; Pregnancy trends; Teen pregnancies.</p><p><br/></p><p>14-What are the conclusions about teen pregnancy rates?</p><p>15-What are the countries with the highest and lowest rates according to statistics?</p><p>16-Do you notice the information in the abstract is organized in sections? What are those sections?</p>]]></description>
