  • Women’s Knowledge and Practice Towards Breast Cancer in Nagaland, Northeast India

    Open Access•Khriesivonuo Nakhro, Abhishikta Ghosh Roy et al.•ARTICLE•Journal of the Anthropological…•2023

    With the rising incidence of breast cancer, it is imperative to assess awareness of breast cancer in various groups. Being the most frequently occurring life-threatening malignancy and the most prevalent cause of morbidity and mortality, its upsurge calls for concern and awareness of factors associated with it. A cross-sectional design was carried out in Kohima and Dimapur districts of Nagaland. Purposive and Convenience sampling methods were ado…

  • The role of anthropometric variables in assessment of obesity among Tripuri women of North-East India

    Open Access•Piyali Das, Kusum Ghosh et al.•ARTICLE•Papers on Anthropology•2023

    Obesity is an etiologically complex and multifactorial phenotype, underpinned by genetic, environmental, socioeconomic and behavioural or psychological factors. Worldwide prevalence of obesity is reaching epidemic or pandemic proportions, which has resulted in an increased prevalence of obesity-related co-morbidities and financial burden that needs effective interventions. The prevalence of obesity varies significantly across the world, and sever…

  • North-East Indian Anthropological Research 2019 (preliminary results)

    Open Access•Arup Ratan Bandyopadhyay, Denis V Pezhemsky et al.•ARTICLE•Moscow University Anthropology…•2022

    Introduction. Russian-Indian Anthropological expedition was organized in 2019 by Paleoethnology Research Center (Russia), Timiryazev State Museum of Biology (Russia) and Department of Anthropology University of Calcutta (India). The goal was to examine the peoples of Tripura state, North-East India. Data and methods. About 350 individuals from eight different locations next to Agartala were examined. Currently there are 19 tribes in Tripura, Trip…

  • Prevalence and Factors Associated with Overweight/Obesity in Adolescent School Girls: A Cross-Sectional Study in Kolkata, India

    Open Access•Papiya Roy, Suman Chakrabarty et al.•ARTICLE•Anthropological Review•2022•References: 25

    Overweight and obesity in adolescent girls are considered a leading global public health issues in recent times. There is a need to evaluate the potential socioeconomic and behavioural factors behind adolescents' overweight and obesity in different environmental settings. The present study aims to understand the prevalence of overweight and obesity among urban adolescent school girls and to determine the association between selected socioeconomic…

  • Estimation of optimal obesity cut-offs among Tripuri and Halam women of Tripura, Northeast India

    Open Access•Rima Chaudhuri, Priyanka Das et al.•ARTICLE•Papers on Anthropology•2020

    Obesity is one of the risk assessments for various non-communicable diseases (NCDs), while anthropometric measurements are one of the measures of obesity, which has been demonstrated as a time-tested important technique for risk assessment of NCDs. Due to variation of anthropometric measurements, it seems difficult to classify obesity using world cut-offs in different population groups. The objective of the present study is to discern the populat…

  • Maternal fetal interaction in the ABO system: A comparative analysis of healthy mother and couples with spontaneous abortion in Bengalee population

    Open Access•Arup Ratan Bandyopadhyay, Diptendu Chatterjee et al.•ARTICLE•American Journal of Human Biology•2011

    Objectives: The selective effects on genotypes could generally be perceived by its manifestation in prezygotic and postzygotic stages, which is further extendable to neonatal and postnatal periods in human. Selective elimination of genotypes could generally be perceived by the study of reproductive performance of the couple on the basis of their mating types. Actual studies on the products of conception, living, or dead (aborted material) of thes…

  • Non-Communicable Disease and Health Hazards in Bengali Population: A Major Public Health Issue in India

    Open Access•Diptendu Chatterjee, Arup Ratan Bandyopadhyay•ARTICLE•Journal of Human Ecology•2009•References: 1

    Health policy of a nation is necessary to avoid the health hazards of the people of the nation. Obesity related non-communicable disease is considerably associated with high accumulation of calorie and uneven or less expenditure of calorie due to inadequate physical activity. Obesity could be related with many non-communicable diseases — Hypertension, Coronary Heart Disease (CHD), and NIDDM for example. The main objective of the present study is …

  • Relationship between anthropometric measures and body composition among Muslim females of West Bengal, India

    Zahira Khatoon, Jayita Roy Tapadar et al.•ARTICLE•Anthropologischer Anzeiger•2008

    The human body composition is assessed to determine percent body fat (PBF), fat mass (FM), and lean body mass or fat free mass (FFM). The topological distribution of body fat has been the subject of many studies in the world and India. To the best of our knowledge the present paper is the first report on the body composition in terms of PBF and FM, and their relationship with anthropometric measures in Muslim females in India. The present study e…

  • Relationship Between Anthropometric Measurements and Body Composition Among Santal Girls Aged Between 6-18 Years of Galudih, Jharkhand, India

    Open Access•Diptendu Chatterjee, Jyoti Ratan Ghosh et al.•ARTICLE•The Anthropologist•2006

    A cross sectional study of 116 Santal girls was undertaken to compare the relationship of biceps and triceps skinfolds, waist, hip and mid upper arm circumferences, waist-hip ratio and conicity index with three body composition variables; percentage of body fat, fat mass and fat free mass of the anthropometric characteristics. Waist circumference displayed the strongest correlations (p,0.001) with present body fat (r=0.85) and fat mass (r=0.86). …

  • Age and sex variation of body mass index and waist circumference among the Santal children of Jharkhand, India

    Arnab Ghosh, Diptendu Chatterjee et al.•ARTICLE•Anthropologischer Anzeiger•2006

    Central body fat (CBF) as measured by waist circumference (WC) etc. has now been considered as risk factor for chronic disease, disability, and death. It has been assumed that one's characteristic level of body fat, as measured by body mass index (BMI), and CBF unfolds during the normal course of growth and development. However, studies of the development of CBF show relatively weak consistency in comparison to body fat. But to the best of our kn…

  • A Comparative Study on Anthropometry and Central Body Fat Distribution of Pre-menarcheal and Post-menarcheal Santal Girls of Jharkhand

    Open Access•Diptendu Chatterjee, Sudeshna Chanda et al.•ARTICLE•Studies of Tribes and Tribals•2005

    The cross sectional study of 103 pre-menarcheal and post-menarcheal Santal girls was carried to investigate difference in General adiposity Body mass index (BMI), anthropometric variables and central body fat distribution (Waist-hip ratio and conicity index). The result showed that menarcheal girls had significantly greater values for mean height, weight, BMI, minimum waist circumference compared with pre-menarcheal girls. How ever, both groups h…
