Abstract:
This project was designed to ascertain the prevalence and risk factors for epilepsy in a rural health district in the North-West Region of Cameroon. A community-based epilepsy screening targeted all inhabitants, six years and older, in all 16 health areas in the Batibo Health District. During door-to-door visits, fieldworkers used a validated questionnaire to interview consenting heads of households about the possibility of epilepsy in eligible residents of the house. All people with suspected epilepsy were subsequently assessed by a physician who confirmed or refuted the epilepsy diagnosis af

Abstract:
Children are among the most vulnerable to violence. A global problem, child victimization has been extensively studied in the context of public health research. As negative consequences of victimization are demonstrated, estimation of its prevalence and identification of its risk factors are two major concerns of researchers. Intimate partner violence (IPV), a worldwide prevalent family problem in itself, is directly or indirectly demonstrated in association with risk of different child victimizations.

Abstract:
Feline hyperthyroidism is an important disorder in middle-aged and older cats. The cause and pathogenesis of the disease is still unknown and there are few published incidence rates or prevalence estimates. A descriptive cross-sectional study was conducted to determine the prevalence of and potential risk factors for feline hyperthyroidism in Hong Kong. Serum thyroxine (T4) was measured in 305 cats 10 years and older that presented at various veterinary clinics in Hong Kong between June 2006 and August 2007.

Background Midwives are frequently exposed to traumatic birth events which may place them at risk of developing posttraumatic stress (PTS) symptoms. Posttraumatic stress can reduce empathic and cognitive abilities and increase perceptions of risk and danger.

It is not known whether these factors also apply among midwives. Aims 1. To identify prevalence of posttraumatic stress among Australian midwives. 2.

A cohort of 490 boys and 657 girls, aged 12.6 ± 0.7 years, were assessed for CVD risk factors. Socioeconomic status was determined by school attended, and ethnicity via self-reporting. Measurements included indices of obesity, blood pressure, diet, physical activity, aerobic fitness, blood lipids and lipoproteins, high sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) and high-molecular weight (HMW) adiponectin.

Feline hyperthyroidism is a metabolic disease of middle-aged to older cats that has shown a marked increase in its world-wide prevalence within the last three decades. This disorder is now recognised as the most common feline endocrinopathy in many geographical locations, with diabetes mellitus coming a close second. Epidemiological studies performed to date have also suggested a geographic variation in the prevalence of the disease. This seemingly apparent variation may, in fact, reflect differences in dietary, environmental or genetic factors. Although clinical features of feline hype
