Food insecurity is the major determinant of low birth weight in developing countries. Objective: This study aimed to identify the effects of food insecurity and other possible factors associated with low birth weight in West Wollega, West Ethiopia. Methods: This facility-based unmatched case–control study was conducted among mothers who gave birth to live newborns in randomly selected hospitals in West Wollega. Data were collected using a structured interviewer-administered questionnaire. Collected data were coded and entered into Epi Info version 7.2.0.1 and analyzed by SPSS version 24. Adjusted odds ratios were used to identify predictors of low birth weight at a p -value less than 0.05. Results: The study indicated that the mother living in a food-insecure household (AOR [95% CI] = 2.9 [1.05–8]), uneducated mother (AOR [95% CI] = 5 [1.8–14]), birth interval of <24 months (AOR [95% CI] = 4.6 [1.2–18]), age at first birth of <18 years (AOR [95% CI] = 4 [1.1– 15]), late initiation of antenatal care (ANC) (AOR [95% CI] = 4.4 [1.3–15.7]), pregnancy-induced hypertension (AOR [95% CI] = 3.6 [1.03–12.9]), and maternal mid-upper arm circumference (MUAC) of <23 cm (AOR [95% CI] = 11 [4–35]) were predictors of low birth weight. Conclusion: Household food insecurity, a birth interval of <24 months, age at first birth <18 years, late initiation of first ANC, pregnancy-induced hypertension, and maternal MUAC of <23 cm were predictors of low birth weight in this study. Early screening for medical and obstetric conditions, as well as maternal nutritional status and household food insecurity, is a key action needed to reduce low birth weight in this study area.","PeriodicalId":43423,"journal":{"name":"Nutrition and Dietary Supplements","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.5,"publicationDate":"2021-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44768161","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}

Malnutrition is one of the diseases under the surveillance system which is reported weekly and monthly. In the Bale zone, malnutrition is one of the major public health problems. Therefore, this trend analysis of severe acute malnutrition was to describe the magnitude, trends, disease outcome and geographical distribution of the severe acute malnutrition in Bale Zone from 2014-2017. Methods A descriptive cross-sectional study was conducted on April 2018. Data was extracted from Bale zone monthly malnutrition report database and checked for completeness and consistency then four years’ trends of severe acute malnutrition were analyzed. The prevalence and trend of severe acute malnutrition by Woreda, year and age were analyzed using Microsoft office excel and SPSS version 20 then summarized using text, table, and figure. Result A total of 37,678 severe acute malnutrition cases registered over four years (2014-2017). Of these, 31,642(84%) cured, 52(0.14%) died, 641(1.7%) defaulters, 66(0.18%) non-respondents.

Patients and Methods: A total of 116 participants (age range 18–74 years, 31% males and 28.4% of participants being overweight and obese) were recruited. Estimates for energy and macro- and micronutrient intakes, and food group intakes were compared between the two methods using Wilcoxon-sign-rank test, correlation coefficients, Cohen’s Kappa, Bland– Altman plots with 95% limits of agreement, and quartile classifications. Results: Cohen’s Kappa values for energy and macronutrient intakes indicated moderate agreement, ranging from 0.402 (protein) to 0.470 (fat), fair agreement for most micronutrients (0.2–0.4) and poor agreement for most food groups (<0.2). When data were cross-classified into quartiles for energy and macronutrients, about 58% of participants were cross-classified in the same quartile using both methods, while 33% of participants were cross-classified in adjacent quartiles of one method versus the other. Micronutrients (such Na, Mg, Ca, K, Fe, vitamins) had the highest degree of misclassification, on average 40% being cross-classified in the same quartile and another 40% in adjacent quartiles. Bland– Altman plots suggested that both methods were comparable for energy and all macronutrients. When the consumption of food groups was compared, correlation coefficients between methods ranged from 0.09 (legumes) to 0.26 (whole grain), indicating poor correlation. Conclusion: These results showed that the relative match of a standard FFQ, as compared to the 7-day food records, was moderate in estimating macronutrient and energy, fair for most micronutrient intakes and poor for others and as for food groups.","PeriodicalId":43423,"journal":{"name":"Nutrition and Dietary Supplements","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.5,"publicationDate":"2021-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43604812","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}

Gelaye","doi":"10.2147/NDS.S314411","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.2147/NDS.S314411","url":null,"abstract":"Purpose: Globally in 2016, 22.9% of under-five children were stunted. In Ethiopia, the current reduction rate was 2.8%, which was far from the global nutritional target of 2025. However, evidence on the prevalence of stunting and its associated factors in Janamora district was very limited. Therefore, this study aimed to determine the prevalence of stunting and to identify the risk factors among 6–59 months children in Janamora district. Methods: A community-based cross-sectional study was conducted in Janamora district from February to March 2020. A multistage cluster sampling technique was used to select 845 study participants. Data were collected using an interviewer-administered technique from caregivers, and anthropometric measurements were taken from the child. An adjusted odds ratio and a P-value <0.05 were used to declare statistical significance. Results: The prevalence of stunting in this study was 44.9% (95% CI: 41.5, 48.4). The following conditions were significantly affected stunting: age of child 6–11 months (AOR=2.5 (1.18–5.29)), 12–24 months (AOR=3.38 (1.95–5.88)), 24–35 months (AOR=2.33 (1.35,4.01)), wealth status: poorest (AOR=2.79 (1.66,4.68)), poor (AOR=2.15 (1.29,3.57)), medium (AOR=2.09 (1.25,3.49)), good knowledge of mothers/caregivers on handwashing: (AOR = 0.64 (0.43,0.92)), presence of diarrhea: (AOR = 1.9 (1.23,2.95)), start complementary feeding at six months: (AOR=0.58 (0.39,0.88)), start complementary feeding before six months: (AOR=1.58 (1.07,2.34)), and large family size: (AOR=2.33 (1.70,3.21)). Conclusion: In this study, the prevalence of stunting was high. Being a younger child, living with a large family size, low wealth status, starting complementary feeding before and at 6-months, and diarrhea were provoking factors for stunting. On the other hand, good knowledge of mothers on handwashing during the critical time was associated with a low risk of stunting. Therefore, the nutrition programs need to give focus activities that enhance caregiver’s handwashing knowledge at the critical time and to start complementary feeding at the appropriate age.","PeriodicalId":43423,"journal":{"name":"Nutrition and Dietary Supplements","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.5,"publicationDate":"2021-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46369491","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}

Globally, about 40% of under two years of age deaths are attributed to inappropriate infant and young child feeding practices. In Ethiopia, a large range of inappropriate feeding practices of mothers during infancy and early childhood were documented. This study aims to assess infant and young child feeding practice status and its determinants among mothers of children aged 6–23 months in Kalu district, Northeast Ethiopia. Methods: Community-based cross-sectional study design was applied from May 1–30/2019. A total of 605 mothers–children pair’s 6–23 months were included in the study using multi-stage sampling followed by a simple random sampling technique. Data were collected using a pretested semi-structured interviewer-administered questionnaire. Bi-variate and multivariable logistic regression were used to assess determinants associated with child feeding practices. Statistical significance was decided at p-value less than 0.05. Results: Of six hundred five (605) sampled mothers having an infant and young child age 6–23 months, 589 were successfully included in the study making a response rate of 97.35%. In our study, the overall proportion of appropriate infant and young child feeding practices was 57.7%. Place of delivery (AOR=1.977; 95% Cl (1.101, 3.552)), mothers’ age being 25–35 years (AOR =2.091; 95% Cl: (1.452, 3.011)) and family size >4 members (AOR=1.873; 95% CI: (1.311, 2.675)) were determinants positively associated with appropriate infant and young child feeding practices in Kalu district at 95% CI. Conclusion: The overall appropriate infant and young child feeding practices were better in general in Kalu district. However, this prevalence is not acceptable to ensure good health and better nutritional status of children. As a result, intervention initiatives should focus on institution delivery services that are crucial to implementing appropriate infant and young child feeding practice. Health facilities need to be strengthened and fully utilized to provide high-quality feeding counseling. Special attention needs to be given to younger mothers, in addition to increasing institution delivery service.","PeriodicalId":43423,"journal":{"name":"Nutrition and Dietary Supplements","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.5,"publicationDate":"2021-03-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46127638","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}
