Childhood wasting and associated factors in Africa
Childhood wasting in Africa exceeds the global target set for 2025, which aims to reduce it to less than 5%. To address this critical issue, educating mothers without formal education and rural residents about antenatal care visits, institutional delivery, and proper child feeding practices is essential. Moreover, a renewed focus on tackling the multifaceted factors of undernutrition, strengthening health systems, and implementing evidence-based …
Underweight and associated factors among children under age of five in low and lower-middle income African countries
Introduction Globally, nearly half of all deaths among children under the age of five are linked to undernutrition. These tragic outcomes are most prevalent in low- and middle-income countries. The far-reaching impact of malnutrition affects not only individuals but also their families, communities, and entire nations. By examining underweight, we gain valuable insights into the intricate network of factors influencing child health. Therefore, th…
Minimum acceptable diet use and its associated factors among children aged 6–23 in Ghana
Introduction Inappropriate feeding practices are a major contributor to child malnutrition. To monitor the feeding practices of young children, current and frequent studies are required. However, as far as our searches are concerned, there is a scarcity of up-to-date information on attainment of the minimum acceptable diet and its predictors in the study area. Therefore, this study aimed to assess the magnitude of attainment of the minimum accept…
Coverage and determinants of second-dose measles vaccination among under-five children in East Africa countries
The prevalence of adolescent fatherhood and its associated factors in East African countries
Adolescent fatherhood is more prevalent, in East Africa. These findings highlight the complexity of adolescent fatherhood and suggest that multiple factors, including socio-demographic characteristics and reproductive health behaviors, play a role in determining the likelihood of becoming an adolescent father. Understanding these associations can inform targeted interventions and policies aimed at reducing adolescent fatherhood rates and addressi…
Prevalence, spatial distribution and determinants of complete childhood pneumococcal conjugate vaccination in Ethiopia
The distribution of complete childhood pneumococcal conjugate vaccination exhibited spatial variability across Ethiopia. Approximately half of children aged twelve to thirty-five months received the full dose of the childhood pneumococcal conjugate vaccine in the country. Several factors were identified as statistically significant determinants of complete childhood pneumococcal conjugate vaccination, including maternal age, antenatal care visits…
Individual and community level factors associated with discriminatory attitudes against people living with HIV/Aids among women of reproductive age in three sub-Saharan African countries
The prevalence of discriminatory attitudes against people living with HIV/AIDS in three sub-Saharan African countries was high. Individual and community-level variables were associated with discriminatory attitudes against people living with HIV/AIDS. Therefore, special consideration should be given to rural dwellers and young adults. In addition, better to strengthen the accessibility of Internet and HIV testing services, and improve HIV-related…
Complementary feeding practices and associated factors among mothers of children aged 6 to 23 months in Sub-saharan African countries
The prevalence of appropriate complementary feeding practices among mothers of children aged 6 to 23 months in sub-Saharan Africa was relatively low. Higher maternal educational level, female household head, having media exposure, attending more ANC visits, health facility delivery, currently breastfeeding, having PNC follow-up, low community illiteracy, and living in the West Africa region increase the odds of appropriate complementary feeding p…
Minimum milk feeding frequency and its associated factors among non-breastfed children aged 6–23 months in sub-saharan Africa
In sub-Saharan Africa, the proportion of minimum milk feeding frequency among non-breastfed children aged between 6 and 23 months was low. The likelihood of minimum milk feeding frequency increases with high levels of education, unemployment, media exposure, rich wealth status, being unmarried, having a child born in a health facility, getting PNC checks, being between 6 and 8 months old, and living in an urban area. Hence, promoting women's educ…
Perceived work-ability and its associated factors among nurses working in the Northwest of Amhara regional state Referral Hospitals, Northwest Ethiopia, 2022
In this study, the prevalence of poor level of work ability among nurses was high. Nurses with a female sex, nurses who had chronic disease, BSC holders and nurses who had poor sleep quality had a poor level of work ability. The federal Minister of health and the study hospitals collaborative with concerned stakeholders to design strategies to enhance work ability among nurses
