Abstract:
Cadmium, chromium, iron, zinc, and copper levels of flaked paints collected from fifty buildings of four major cities – Enugu, Onitsha, Aba, and Port Harcourt in Eastern Nigeria were studied. Fifty samples of the flaked paints were ground with laboratory pestle and mortar, 2 g of fine ground paints that could pass through a 0.5-mm sieve were digested with 15 ml concentrated nitric acid and perchloric acid at a ratio of 1:1 and analyzed for cadmium, chromium, iron, zinc and copper using atomic absorption spectrophotometer 500. Cadmium ranged from 9.032 ± 0.000 to 10.575± 0.000 and 6.845 ± 0.000 to 10.028 ± 0.002 mg/kg in Enugu and Onitsha, respectively. In Aba and Port Harcourt, the levels of cadmium ranged 7.464 ± 0.002–9.343 ± 0.002 and 7.293 ± 0.002–9.395 ± 0.000 mg/kg, respectively. Chromium levels were significantly lower in Enugu (range 0.940 ± 0.000–12.793 ± 0.002 mg/kg) when compared with the values from other cities namely Onitsha (range 1.613 ± 0.002–15.140 ± 0.000 mg/kg), Aba (range 15.206 ± 0.000–39.215 ± 0.000 mg/kg) and Port Harcourt (range 33.118 ± 0.002–55.418 ± 0.002 mg/kg). The highest levels (mg/kg) of iron (11 908.150 ± 0.000), zinc (31.508 ± 0.002) and copper (7.588 ± 0.002) were seen in buildings from Enugu aged 11 years and above. The iron level (mg/kg) ranged from 1391.750 ± 0.000 to 10 476.845 ± 0.000, 1450.176 ± 0.000 to 11 580.750 ± 0.000 and 3314.913 ± 0.002 to 8162.333 ± 0.002 in Onitsha, Aba, and Port Harcourt, respectively. Zinc levels were significantly lower in Onitsha than in Aba and Port Harcourt. Age of building did not seem to affect the levels of these metals namely iron, zinc and copper from these cities. This study shows that flaked paints increase the environmental heavy metal burden in Nigeria.

Abstract:
The study focused on comparison on impact of HIV/AIDS patient’s characteristics on their blood pressure in Nigeria: a case of NAUTH, COOUTH and Onitsha general hospital in Anambra State. The blood pressure being the response variables are systolic blood pressure & diastolic blood pressure, while the predictor variables being the HIV/AIDS patient’s characteristics are age, baseline count, initial weight, present weight and CD4 count of HIV/AIDS patients. The R software package was employed to facilitate the data analysis. The Multivariate Regression Model of the two response variables (Systolic PB and Diastolic PB) was first fitted with the coefficient of determination of 31.88% and 46.80% respectively for NAUTH data, 27.9% and 37.98% respectively for COOUTH data and 97.35% and 57.15% respectively for general hospital, Onitsha data. The test on the significance of the parameters for the multivariate regression for NAUTH data revealed that age and baseline count of HIV/AIDS patients have significant relationship with systolic BP at 5% level of significance, whereas other predictor variables (initial weight, present weight and CD4 count of HIV/AIDS patients) are not significant, while in the second model, only age has a significant relationship with diastolic BP, whereas initial weight, present weight, baseline count and CD4 count of HIV/AIDS patients do not have significant relationship with diastolic BP at 5% level of significance. The test on the significance of the parameters for the multivariate regression also revealed that only age has significant relationship with systolic and diastolic BP at 5% level of significance, whereas other predictor variables are not significant for both COOUTH and general hospital Onitsha data. It was further revealed that the data collected from the general hospital Onitsha has the highest coefficient of determination (0.9735) with the lowest AIC (1348.944), BIC (1374.462) and residual standard error (2.587) for systolic blood pressure model which makes the data used in this study the most suitable for the model employed under the stipulated year of study. Also observed that the same data collected from the general hospital Onitsha has the highest coefficient of determination (0.5715) with the lowest AIC (1825.917), BIC (1851.435) and residual standard error (6.008) for diastolic blood pressure model which equally makes the data used in this study the most suitable. It is clear from the result obtained in this study that the data set collected from general hospital, Onitsha from 2003 to 2017 is most appropriate for the multivariate multiple linear regression models.

Abstract:
Lead is a malleable metal previously used to improve the durability and color luster of paint applied in homes and on industrial structures such as bridges. Lead has deleterious effects on multiple organs in humans. There is paucity of information on the extent of the use of lead-based paint in Nigerian houses. This study has attempted to estimate the extent of use of lead-based paint in buildings in Eastern Nigeria using 168 buildings. Flaked paint samples were collected from residential, church, commercial, and school buildings from four most populous cities in Eastern Nigeria namely Enugu, Onitsha, Aba, and Port Harcourt, and they were digested using conc HNO3:HCLO4 (1:1) and analyzed using atomic absorption spectrophotometer. The lead levels from buildings in Enugu ranged from 39.385 ± 1.111–69.843 ± 4.886 mg/kg. The highest level of lead was found in Onitsha ranging from 49.503 ± 0.000–74.352 ± 0.571 mg/kg. Residential buildings, which mainly serve the under privileged populations, has the highest lead level in this study. In Aba, the highest lead level (66.432 ± 0.013 mg/kg) was found in commercial buildings aged 5–10 years. The lead levels in paint flakes from buildings in the four cities tended to decrease with increasing age of the buildings. Taken together all the building paint flakes from the four cities had lead levels higher than the United States Environmental Protection Agency permissible level of 5 mg/kg. There is a need for primary intervention strategy to reduce the paint lead levels in Nigeria.

Abstract:
The purpose of this study is to understand the non home-based travel behavior of urban market traders in Onitsha, Nigeria, where 58-70% of the labor force is engaged in trading. Relevant trip-inducing variables--gender, location, a means of personal transportation, size of stall and, type of good sold--were selected to assist in theorizing about the travel behavior of traders. Using a systematic sampling methodology, 246 stalls were selected and the MLR model was applied in data analyses. The results show that a typical stall is occupied by either one or two traders. There are three male traders for every female trader and 89.4% of stalls are occupied exclusively by one gender. The mean trips produced by a stall in a typical business day is 2.7 trips, with a variation from zero to ten trips. In the CBD, an average stall produced 4.4 trips while stalls in the periphery generated an average of 2.1 trips. Small stalls generate two trips, while medium (three occupants) to large stalls generate twice as many trips. While stalls occupied exclusively by males have a mean of 3.0 trips, female-occupied stalls generate only 2.0 trips. On the other hand, stalls which have a personal means of transportation generate more trips than stalls where none existed. Even though the maximum number of a personal means of transportation available to a stall was two, there was a substantial difference between the number of trips produced by stalls with the maximum number of vehicles and stalls where vehicles were unavailable. Finally, while provision goods stalls generate a mean of 3.3 trips, foodstuffs stalls generate about 2.1 trips with intermediate results for other commodities. For policymaking purposes, there is empirical evidence to show that traders, together with consumers, contribute to off-peak trips which directly impact the urban transportation system. There is the need to evolve policies to minimize the frequency of trips by traders, especially by discouraging multiple tripmaking because, it will contribute to a reduction in the amount of resources allocated to the upkeep of the urban transportation infrastructure.

Abstract:
The purpose of the study is to investigate and identify the factors that affect utilisation of prevention mother to child transmission of HIV services and propose measures to promote utilisation of services by HIV positive pregnant women in Onitsha, Anambra State, Nigeria. Mother-to-child transmission of HIV accounts for over 90% of infections in children under 15 years. Infected pregnant women can pass on the infection to their babies during pregnancy, delivery or through breastfeeding. There are effective interventions now reduce of the infection to the baby. However some infected women still do not avail themselves of these services due to several reasons. A quantitative descriptive study, using the Health Belief Model as the conceptual framework was used to conduct the research. A structured interview schedule was used to interview 102 pregnant women at two health facilities in Onitsha, Anambra state, Nigeria. The findings from the study reveal that majority of the respondents knew about HIV transmission but not about ways the infection can be transmitted from mother-to-child. The respondents recognise that HIV/AIDS is a very serious threat in Nigeria and the study site and were of the opinion that all pregnant women should know their HIV status. The attitude of health care workers and fears about disclosure of HIV status to others was a setback. Revealing their status to the spouse was feared.
