Abstract:

A two stage survey was carried out in order, a) to investigate trends and differentials in infant mortality in Abu Dhabi Emirate from 1980 to 1996 and b) to investigate the influence of risk factors on the problem of mortality under five years. The first stage reviewed infant mortality by sex, ethnicity, locality and cause of death. Data about the births and deaths of children were obtained from the Departments of Preventive Medicine in the three Health Regions of Abu Dhabi, Al Ain and the Western Region; 4523 infant deaths were coded according to the 9<SUP>th</SUP> revision of the Internation

Abstract:

Background: Appropriate child feeding prevents nutrient deficiencies, diseases, and deaths in children. However, only 13.3% of children aged 6-23 months in Ghana receive the minimum acceptable diet. Thus, undernutrition remains high in rural northern Ghana, especially among under-fives. This is showing no improvement despite economic development and implementation of globally recommended nutrition & feeding interventions. There is limited context specific evidence about child feeding in rural northern Ghana. Aim: To examine how culture might impact upon the feeding of children under five y

Abstract:

Pain is a very common problem experienced by the general population and children in particular. It goes beyond personal suffering and affects all dimensions of the quality of life and general functioning of both adults and children, be it the physiological, psychological or financial aspects. Children may suffer from pain that may either be chronic or acute, depending on the diagnosis. Assessment of pain in children is equally important as that of adults, except that they lack the verbal fluency and cognitive development to communicate their pain. Children’s experience of pain is similar to

Abstract:

Child mortality can be used to measure the level of social development as well as the health status of children (Hill 1991). By world regions, sub-Saharan Africa maintains the highest rates of under-five mortality. Current under-five mortality is estimated at 76 deaths per 1,000 live births (Hug, Sharrow, Zhong et al. 2018). In Zambia, under-five mortality reached a peak of 197 in 1996 and is currently estimated at 60 (Hug, Sharrow, Zhong et al. 2018). On the world health agenda, reducing child mortality has been made a priority, especially for low income countries that remain the most affecte

Abstract:

Childhood malnutrition is a real-life and a chronic problem and one of the global major public health challenges, especially in developing countries like Ghana. Several attempts from governmental and non-governmental organizations to address the problem have fallen below expectation. It is recognised that the existing studies and nutrition intervention strategies are inadequate and hence not working to expectation.

Background Development of resistance to first line antimalarials led to recommendation of artemisinin based combination therapies (ACTs). High adherence to ACTs provided by community health workers (CHWs) gave reassurance that community based interventions did not increase the risk of drug resistance. Integrated community case management of illnesses (ICCM) is now recommended through which children will access both antibiotics and antimalarials from CHWs. Increased number of medicines has been shown to lower adherence. Objective To compare adherence to antimalarials alone versus antimalarials

Urinary tract infections (UTI) in young children have been associated with serious long-term complications such as renal scarring, hypertension and renal failure. The presenting symptoms of UTI in children are non-specific. If UTI is not suspected, a urine sample is not obtained, and without this, UTI cannot be diagnosed. There is evidence that the diagnosis is often missed. Most published studies have not systematically sampled urine, and those that have are largely based in US emergency departments and only include highly selected groups of children.

The viral infection usually causes self-limited gastroenteritis, although chronic infection has been observed in highly immunocompromised patients.

Abstract:

This thesis describes the development of a novel game-like method, the AnimalSeek method, which can be used, along with motion tracking technology, to measure localisation ability of a child under five years of age. For the game-like task to be successful, a high number of responses (in particular correct head turn responses) was required. Previous studies, although not all looking at localisation ability, have used many different techniques to obtain the maximum number of responses from a child. The children were engaged inside a custom-built environment inside an anechoic chamber. Three larg

Magister Artium (Child and Family Studies) - MA(CFS)<br>Introduction: Malnutrition is the immediate result of inadequate dietary intake, the presence of disease or the interaction between these two factors. It is a complicated problem, an outcome of several etiologies. SAM is one of the leading causes of morbidity and mortality among children under the age of five in developing countries. Although studies in Botswana show some improvement in child malnutrition since the 1980s, severe acute malnutrition still remains a cause for concern in many parts of the country. There is little information

Abstract:

Pneumonia is one of the major public health problems threats to child survival in large parts of the world. The burden of this disease in terms of morbidity and mortality remains unacceptably high with almost one million children dying every year as a result of pneumonia episode. Over 90% of these pneumonia-associated deaths in young children occur in developing countries and are mainly secondary to bacterial infections. The availability of effective vaccines against bacterial pneumonia, coupled with adequate and efficacious antibiotic treatments, should be sufficient to reduce this burden.

Abstract:

El Bisfenol-A (BPA) se ha usado durante muchos años como monómero en polímeros de policarbonato (PC) (botellas de agua y comida para niños-biberones) y en resinas tipo epoxi (botes de comida preparada), a partir de los cuales puede liberarse este compuesto a la comida y al agua, lo que constituye la principal fuente de exposición a BPA de los seres humanos. Como consecuencia de sus propiedades como disruptor endocrino, se prohibió su uso en la producción de polímeros para materiales en contacto con comida para niños menores de 3 años (European Commission, Regulation No. 10/2011).
