Design of an implementation research study for a digital omnichannel community engagement and risk communication intervention for the prevention and control of vector-borne diseases in India
Introduction: Vector-borne diseases (VBDs), such as malaria, dengue, and lymphatic filariasis, pose significant public health challenges in India, contributing significantly to the nation's morbidity and mortality. In this scenario, digital technology promises scalable, contextual, and user-centric interventions for behavior change. However, systematic and comprehensive community-based digital approaches for VBD prevention in India are limited. T…
Field based research in the era of the pandemic in resource limited settings
The coronavirus pandemic that began in December 2019, has had an unprecedented impact on the global economy, health systems and infrastructure, in addition to being responsible for significant mortality and morbidity worldwide. The “new normal” has brought along, unforeseen challenges for the scientific community, owing to obstructions in conducting field-based research in lieu of minimizing exposure through in-person contact. This has had greate…
Contribution of indigenous foods towards nutrient intakes and nutritional status of women in the Santhal tribal community of Jharkhand, India
Objective The indigenous food environment, dietary intake and nutritional status of women in the Santhal tribal community of Jharkhand were assessed. Contribution of indigenous foods to nutritional status and nutrient intakes was explored. Design Exploratory cross-sectional study with a longitudinal dietary intake assessment component. Household and dietary surveys were conducted to elicit information on socio-economic and demographic profile and…
The Effect of Rural-to-Urban Migration on Obesity and Diabetes in India
BACKGROUND: Migration from rural areas of India contributes to urbanisation and may increase the risk of obesity and diabetes. We tested the hypotheses that rural-to-urban migrants have a higher prevalence of obesity and diabetes than rural nonmigrants, that migrants would have an intermediate prevalence of obesity and diabetes compared with life-long urban and rural dwellers, and that longer time since migration would be associated with a higher…
Assessment of physical activity using accelerometry, an activity diary, the heart rate method and the Indian Migration Study questionnaire in South Indian adults
Objective To validate questionnaire-based physical activity level (PAL) against accelerometry and a 24 h physical activity diary (24 h AD) as reference methods (Protocol 2), after validating these reference methods against the heart rate–oxygen consumption (HRVO 2 ) method (Protocol 1). Design Cross-sectional study. Setting Two villages in Andhra Pradesh state and Bangalore city, South India. Subjects Ninety-four participants (fifty males, forty-…
