Safer among their own Caste? Everyday Discrimination and Mental Health among Community-dwelling Older Adults in Rural India
Utilization of Integrated Child Development Services (ICDS) and its linkages with undernutrition in India
The Integrated Child Development Services (ICDS) programme has been the central focus of the POSHAN Abhiyaan to combat maternal and child malnutrition under the national nutrition mission in India. This paper examined the linkages between utilization of ICDS and underweight among children aged 6-59 months. The study utilized data from two recent rounds of the National Family Health Survey (NFHS-4 [2015-2016] and NFHS-5 [2019-2021]). Descriptive a…
The burden of hypertension and unmet need for hypertension care among men aged 15–54 years: A population-based cross-sectional study in India
Hypertension is one of the primary causes of morbidity and premature mortality among the working-age population in India. This study evaluated the burden of hypertension and unmet need for hypertension care among working-age men aged 15–54 years in India using data from the fourth round of the National Family Health Survey (NFHS-4, 2015–16). An individual was recognized as hypertensive if his blood pressure was over 140/90 mmHg or if he was consu…
Exploring the non-communicable disease (NCD) network of multi-morbid individuals in India: A network analysis
Nationally representative evidence discussing the interplay of non-communicable diseases (diseases) are scarce in India. Therefore, the present study aims to fill this research void by providing empirical evidence on disease networking using a large nationally representative cross-sectional sample segregated by gender among older adults in India. The analysis utilized data on 10,606 multimorbid women and 7,912 multimorbid men from the Longitudina…
Population and sub-national (district) level diversity in missed and dropout of different doses of hepatitis-B vaccine among Indian children aged 12–59 months
Initiating with a birth dose and a full immunization against hepatitis-B is crucial during early childhood in a country like India where maternal screening of hepatitis-B surface antigen is almost negligible and there is a considerable risk of vertical transmission among children. It is also evident that coverage of hepatitis-B is lowest among all other vaccine doses included in the universal immunization program. In addition, the major challenge…
Estimates and correlates of district-level maternal mortality ratio in India
Despite the progress achieved, approximately one-quarter of all maternal deaths worldwide occur in India. Till now, India monitors maternal mortality in 18 out of its 36 provinces using information from the periodic sample registration system (SRS). The country does not have reliable routine information on maternal deaths for smaller states and districts. And, this has been a major hurdle in local-level health policy and planning to prevent avoid…
Association between experiences of intimate partner sexual violence and cigarette smoking among women in union in Papua New Guinea: Evidence from a nationally representative survey
The rates of IPSV and cigarette smoking among women in union in PNG in the current study were relatively high. Irrespective of diverse demographic, social and economic factors, IPSV was still significantly associated with cigarette smoking among women in union in PNG. The findings presented call the attention of policy-makers and relevant authorities in PNG to an important association that needs to be addressed. Counseling, awareness creation, se…
