Active screening of presumptive tuberculosis cases in rural communities through youth club members in India
Introduction: The majority of presumptive TB cases report late. Early detection of tuberculosis (TB) cases is crucial for its control. We developed a logic model program involving members of a governmental and community-driven youth club of Nehru Yuva Kendra Sangathan (NYKS) volunteers and explored its feasibility. Methodology: The study defined the purpose, scope, and program domains. The domains were input, process, output, and outcome. These d…
Magnitude, Distribution and Associated Socio-behavioral Risk Factors of Coronary Artery Disease
Coronary artery disease is among the leading causes of deaths and disease adjusted life years lost world wide. This is an emerging health threat in India too. Government of India has recently launched a pilot programme for prevention and control of non-communicable diseases. There is paucity of information on this disease in desert part of Rajasthan, India. Study aims to provide the initial baseline information on occurrence of this disease in di…
Awareness and Practices about Silicosis among the Sandstone Quarry Workers in Desert Ecology of Jodhpur, Rajasthan, India
Silicosis is the oldest recorded chronic challenging public health problem globally and particularly in developing countries. Disease silicosis is not curable. Prevention of silicosis is the only option for its control. Community awareness towards silicosis becomes more important tool in this situation. A cross-sectional study was conducted using questionnaire technique to assess awareness and practices regarding silicosis among the sand stone qu…
Studies on the nutritional status of children aged 0–5 years in a drought-affected desert area of western Rajasthan, India
Objective The present study was undertaken to assess the impact of drought on the nutritional status of pre-school children aged 0–5 years from a rural population in a desert area facing drought conditions very frequently. Design The sampling design for assessment was the three-stage sampling technique. Setting The study was carried out in 24 villages belonging to six tehsils (sub-units of district) of Jodhpur District, a drought-affected desert …
Studies on the nutritional status of children aged 0–5 years in a drought-affected desert area of western Rajasthan, India
The prevalence of wasting was high, greater than the cut-off point of 15% stated by the World Health Organization to indicate that the severity of malnutrition is critical. PEM, vitamin A and B complex deficiencies and anaemia, along with dietary deficits of energy and protein, were observed to be higher than in non-desert areas. This may be due to the harsh environmental conditions in desert areas where drought occurs quite frequently and advers…
