These diseases are the fifth leading risks for global deaths. Virtually, all age groups are affected bythe consequences of overweight and obesity. Aims and Objectives: This study was undertakento evaluate risk factors of overweight and obesity among higher secondary school adolescents. Methodology: A cross-sectional study was conducted among 492 school adolescents of the government sector six higher secondary schools in Muzaffarpur. This study measured height, weight and plotted Body mass Index on CDC (Child Development Centre) charts. Factors affecting obesity like physical and sedentary activities (using Bharathy et al. questionnaire) and school-based risk factors were also studied. Results: Based of measurements taken risk factors for overweight and obesity in 492 higher secondary school students, the estimated provincial prevalence of overweight was found to be 9.7%, obesity 3%, and malnutrition 18% respectively. Students involved in household chores for 4 hours or more a week were associated with a decreased risk of overweight (OR 3.97, 95% CI 1.41-11.03) and those with less activity were at increased risk for obesity (OR 6.59, 95% CI 1.83-21.19). Conclusion: The problems of overweight and obesity are taking place while students are still at the risk of underweight. Several factors were correlated with overweight and obesity. Therefore, interventions targeting gender, frequency of eating food out of home, vigorous activities, and frequency of doing the vigorous physical activity are recommended.","PeriodicalId":13368,"journal":{"name":"Indian Journal of Public Health Research and Development","volume":"44 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"86888142","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A cross-sectional survey was performed utilising an online questionnaire from the 1st to 27th March 2021. Data were gathered from a random sample of 260 community pharmacists (CPs) in Tripoli. Of the 260 participants, most respondents (71.66%, n = 187) had a good knowledge level about COVID-19. Moreover, approximately (88.23% n = 229) of the participants had positive attitudes. Most of the participants (84.35%, n = 219) had good practice levels against COVID-19. Educational level was associated with knowledge attitudes and pharmacist practices (p <0.05). No association was found between employment type with attitudes and pharmacist practices, while the experience was not associated with attitudes. There was a difference in the degrees of knowledge of community pharmacists in marital status, age, experience, level of education in relation to COVID-19. The only difference occurs in the CPs attitude scores for education level. Moreover, employment, level of education, marital status, and experience were all associated with levels of practice. The results indicated the existence of differences in the scores of CPs’ practices with respect to marital status, experience and qualifications. Regarding COVID-19, good knowledge was observed to be a better indicator of positive attitude (OR: 2.0993, p=0.001) and good practice (OR:1. 828, p=0.049) The requirements for applying the KAP of COVID-19 among CPs are acceptable and require more attention.","PeriodicalId":13368,"journal":{"name":"Indian Journal of Public Health Research and Development","volume":"45 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"87894119","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Childhood lead exposure is one of the most significant environmental health threats that affects children. In children, it is defined as a blood lead level equal to or greater than 10 µg/dl. Iron deficiency is a cause of hypochromic microcytic anemia, and also increases the absorption of elements like lead. Anemia in children leads to increased morbidity and mortality. This study was done to determine the relation of blood lead levels greater than 10 µg/dl with the anemia compared to levels less than 10 µg/dl. Material and methods: The conduct prospective observational study was conducted on 100 children. For each children haemoglobin, MCV, RDW and blood lead level were tested. 50 children with proven anemia and equal number of children without anemia were enrolled in the study and was analysed and their blood lead levels were tested. Results: Out of 100 children, 63 were male and 37 were female. The overall children mean age was 73.65 + 52.94 months, male mean age was 73.30 + 51.52 months & female mean age was 74.24 + 55.99 months. The Prevalence of Iron Deficiency Anemia by MCV is 64.2% and Prevalence of Iron Deficiency Anemia by RDW is 58.8%. Conclusion: Prevalence of Iron Deficiency anemia by MCV and RDW was 64.2% and 58.8%. However there was a significant difference between the anemic and Non anemic group regarding MCV and RDW. According to the study, there is minimal lead exposure and no lead toxicity in this area.","PeriodicalId":13368,"journal":{"name":"Indian Journal of Public Health Research and Development","volume":"33 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"83916491","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
