Cognitive Penetration and Monstrification
Research on monstrification has broadly examined how Western rhetoric targets marginalized groups, including Muslim immigrants. Much less attention has focused on how religiously conservative Muslim immigrants, especially those affected by war, displacement, and trauma, may develop their own forms of counter-monstrification in response to exclusion in the host society. Drawing on Sweden as a case study, this conceptual article calls for a bilater…
Vietnamese mother's conceptions of childhood overweight
BACKGROUND: Childhood overweight and obesity is a new and emerging problem in Vietnam. The so far observed prevalence increases have pointed to the need for public health intervention strategies with parents as crucial resources for change. OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to understand mothers' conceptions of childhood overweight. DESIGN: Four focus group discussions were conducted with a total of 33 mothers of preschool children, 4-6 years …
Preschool overweight and obesity in urban and rural Vietnam
BACKGROUND: Childhood obesity may soon be an equally important health threat as undernutrition and infectious diseases. Accurate information about prevalence and risk factors of obesity in children is important for the design of prevention. OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to estimate prevalence of overweight and obesity for preschool children in two Vietnamese areas, one urban and one rural, and to identify risk factors. DESIGN: A cross-sect…
Breastfeeding practices in urban and rural Vietnam
Intervention programs with the aim to promote breastfeeding are needed. Mothers should particularly be informed about the importance of starting breastfeeding early and to prolong exclusive breastfeeding. In order to reach the WHO recommendation of six months exclusive breastfeeding, we propose an extended maternity leave legislation to at least six months
Tuberculosis suspicion and knowledge among private and public general practitioners
In Oman, GPs appear to have low suspicion and poor knowledge of TB, particularly private GPs. To strengthen TB control program, there is a need to train GPs on TB identification and adopt a Private Public Mix (PPM) strategy for TB control

Maternal and infant health problems after normal childbirth
STUDY OBJECTIVES: The main aim of the study was to discover if a midwife home visiting programme has a significant effect on the prevalence of health problems and breast feeding behaviour of mothers who delivered normally and their healthy fullterm newborn babies, during a period of 42 days after delivery. Another aim was to compare the mothers', the midwife's, and the doctor's findings of prevalence of health problems at the end of the puerperiu…
Population policy, son preference and the use of IUDs in North Vietnam
This paper discusses contraceptive use and discontinuation among women in north Vietnam, in the context of a strong cultural preference for sons and astringent two-child population policy. Among a random sample of 1432 married women aged 15–49 in a rur al province in north Vietnam in 1994, nearly 60 percent used the intrauterine device (IUD) for contraception; other modern methods were hardly used at all. Overall discontinuation rates were high -…
