RESUMEN
INTRODUCTION: Postpartum depression (PPD) is a mental and emotional condition that can affect women during their first postnatal year and concern globally. This study aimed to determine the overall prevalence and determinants of postpartum depression (PPD) in Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) countries. MATERIALS AND METHODS: A systematic search of observational studies conducted in ASEAN countries between 1 January 2010 and 31 December 2020 was performed in the Medline, PubMed and Google Scholar databases. The quality of studies was evaluated based on The Joanna Briggs Institute Checklist. The analysis was performed with Review Manager software version 5.4. Metaanalysis of the estimates from primary studies was conducted by adjusting for possible publication bias and heterogeneity. RESULTS: Twenty-five studies including 19924 postnatal mothers were included in this review. The pooled prevalence of PPD is 22.32% (95% CI: 18.48, 26.17). Thailand has the highest prevalence of PPD with a pooled prevalence of 74.1% (95% CI: 64.79, 83.41). The prevalence of PPD was highest when the assessment for PPD was conducted up to 6 weeks postpartum with a pooled prevalence of 25.24% (95% CI: 14.08, 36.41). The identified determinants of PPD were unplanned pregnancy, term pregnancy, lack of family support and physical violence. There were limited studies done and high heterogeneity in terms of quality, methodology, culture, screening method and time of PPD measurement. CONCLUSIONS: Approximately one in five postpartum women in ASEAN countries had PPD. The risk factor that lowers the risk of PPD is unplanned and term pregnancies, while women with a lack of family support and experienced physical violence increase the risk of PPD. Robust prevalence studies are needed to assess the magnitude of this problem in ASEAN countries.

The multifactorial nature of head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) has led to increased efforts in establishing various risk factors. Well-known environmental risk factors for HNSCC include tobacco use, heavy alcohol consumption, immunosuppression, and more recently human papillomavirus infection. Familial clustering has been observed in cancers occurring at other sites, but not so much with oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) without exposure to shared environmental risk factors. An unusual case of identical twins who presented with OSCC involving an identical site and exhibiting similar histological features is reported here. The two patients underwent identical surgery with curative intent, culminating in good outcomes. It appears that no other cases of identical twins with a similar presentation in time, anatomical site, and histopathology have been reported in the literature.

A 23-year-old man presented with a history of fibrous ankylosis of the left temporomandibular joint (TMJ), scarring and shortening of the left temporalis muscle secondary to transection, and surgically-induced neuropathic pain after previous decompression of the temporal bone. There was evident hollowing of the left temporal fossa, and mouth opening was limited to 5mm. The aims of the operation were to treat the ankylosis, improve cosmesis, and reduce his medication. His left TMJ was reconstructed with a custom-made alloplastic joint, and a simultaneous custom-made cranioplasty. At follow-up after 2 years he was free of pain and taking no drugs. He had no obvious cranial deformity, and his mouth opening had increased to 35 mm. To our knowledge this is the first reported case of simultaneous custom-made cranioplasty and reconstruction of the TMJ.
