Prevalence and Determinants of Smoking Behaviour in Raymond Mhlaba Local Municipality
Investigating the Knowledge and Attitude of Teenage Pregnancy among Learners in the Eastern Cape
Teenage pregnancy is one of the social problems in South Africa and is of great significance, as it affects the education of young girls.Previous studies indicate that pregnant teenagers are more likely to be at risk of complications of pregnancy than older women.The aim of this study was to investigate the knowledge and attitudes toward teenage pregnancy among high school learners.A sample of 181 learners was taken from three selected schools in…
Statistical Assessment of Malaria Risk Factors Using Cox Proportional Hazard Approach
The Cox proportional hazards (PH) model with time-dependent covariates has been widely used in medical and health related studies to examine the impacts of time-varying risk factors on survival. The study aimed to model the relapsing time using biographical, sanitation, environmental and preventive information as covariate risk factors. The Kaplan-Meier method, log-rank test and the Cox proportional hazards (PH) model to examining the covariates.…
Assessment of Risk Determinants in the Regularity of Malaria Using the Binary Logistic Approach
Malaria is a deadly sickness caused by parasitic organisms and it is transmitted to humans through the bite from an infected female anopheles mosquitoes. The spread of the mosquito parasites responsible for malaria infection is often traceable to living in an unhygienic condition such as poor environmental sanitations. Binary logistic regression was applied to verify the determinants influencing malaria patients’ relapse after treatment and the c…
Seasonality and Trend Forecasting of Tuberculosis Prevalence Data in Eastern Cape, South Africa, Using a Hybrid Model
The combined model indicated a better TB incidence forecasting with a lower AICc. The model also indicates the need for resolute intervention to reduce infectious disease transmission with co-infection with HIV and other concomitant diseases, and also at festival peak periods
Knowledge, Attitude and Practices of HIV/Aids among High School Students in Eastern Cape, South Africa
Millions of people are living with HIV worldwide, and more than half of these people are adolescent, aged between 12-25 years. Insufficient knowledge, bad attitudes and unsafe practices are major impediments in preventing the transmission of the virus. 420 students from grades 9-12 were selected through random sampling from different schools in Eastern Cape. The majority of students assessed (95.5%) were knowledgeable about the spread of the viru…
