Reproductive Health Status in India
Background This study investigates the disparities in reproductive health and the underlying causes in various Indian states. Based on a large-scale population-based, nationally representative data set, this study aims to track the changes between National Family Health Survey (NFHS)-IV and NFHS-V in the status of reproductive health and examine the factors contributing to it in various regions of India for women aged 15–49 years in 29 states (NF…
Dyslipidemia in pre- and post-menopausal women
Dyslipidemia is an important risk factor of cardiovascular disease, whereas menopause is a decrease in ovarian follicular activity at the end of reproductive age of the women, which is significantly influenced by hormonal changes brought on by menopause's impact on serum lipids. This study was undertaken among pre- and post-menopausal Paundra Kshatriya women in Sonarpur, South 24 Parganas, West Bengal, India in order to determine the prevalence o…
Prevalence of Dyslipidemia in a Peri-Urban Population
Body Mass Index and Chronic Energy Deficiency of Adult Males of Central Indian Populations
Data on body weight, height, and sitting height from 11,496 adult males, age 18-62 years, belonging to 38 different populations of five major social groups (scheduled tribes, scheduled castes, "other backward castes," general castes, and Muslims) of Central India were taken for our analysis to assess the nutritional status of these groups. Cormic index and body mass index (BMI) were computed, and an analysis of variance (ANOVA) was carried out am…
Body Mass Index in Central India
Basic causes of poor state of nutrition and infections in developing countries are poverty, low level of hygienic conditions and little access to preventive and health care. Central India is known for its high rate of population growth and mortality, which persisted over time along with a low level of social, economic and infrastructure development. In the present study the body mass index (BMI) of 31 populations residing in 38 districts of Centr…
Variation in anthropometric characters and their relationship with climatic factors
In the present study an attempt has been made to examine the anthropometric variation and the relationship of anthropometric variables with climatic factors among the peoples of Arunachal Pradesh, India. The distance analysis does not seem to provide any interesting corroboration between anthropometric data and the intra- and intergroup relationship. A similar trend has also been noticed while analysing the correlation coefficient between two ind…
Secondary Sex Ratio in a Sample of the Ladiya Population of Sagar (Madhya Pradesh)
The paper deals with the secondary sex ratio among the Ladiya, residing in Pathariya Jat village of Sagar district, Madhya Pradesh. The study reveals a preponderance of male births to female births. Birth order, mother's age and father's age all are found to be maintaining an inverse relationship with the secondary sex ratio. Though the association between father's age and secondary sex ratio (χ2 7 = 17.21) is statistically signficant association…
A morphometric study of the Thingbu-pa and population comparison with neighbouring Monpa tribes of Arunachal Pradesh, India
In the present study an attempt has been made to examine the morphometric characteristics of the adult males of the Thinbu-pa and the nature and extent of morphometric variation among four neighbouring Monpa groups of Arunachal Pradesh (India), namely the Panchen-pa, Dirang Monpa, Tawang Monpa and Kalaktang Monpa. For the sake of investigation altogether 14 anthropometric measurements (11 pertaining to head and face and 3 on the body as a whole) …
Child Mortality in Three Tribal Populations of Shillong
The present paper deals with the early childhood mortality among the Khasi, Garo and Mizo tribe of Shillong in respect of causes of death, mortality rates and medical facilities. The study reveals that diarrhoea, respiratory troubles, asphyxia and jaundice are the main factors causing child mortality in these three populations. Infant and under five mortality both are found to be very low among the Mizo than India’s urban rate, whereas among the …
Distribution of Plantar Creases in Relation to Anatomical Axis Among the Gond
The Gond of Sagar District. Madhya Pradesh were studied for planer creases in relation to ana-tomical axis The results show that distribution of plantar creases is well marled in SMBC as compared with DMBC and TMBC, excepting the fibular incidence of DMC in both the soles among females
Plantar Interdigital Ridge Among The Gond of Madhya Pradesh
The present study deals with the plantar interdigital ridge counts of the Gond of Sagar, Madhya Pradesh. The study reveals that there is no significant bilateral or bisexual differences. In both sexes the Gond and Tibetan independently form two clusters, whereas the Brahman and Bhangi combinedly form another cluster
A Study of Numerical Taxonomy and Group Divergence in Seven Endogamous Groups of Assam
Anthropometric characters of seven endogamous groups, namely, the Muslim. Brahmin. Kalita. Kaibarta. Kumar. Jogi and Hira of Assam have been examined to study the numerical taxonomy and group divergence using the methodology of Penrose (1947, 1954) and Rao (1952). The study reveals three distinct clusters. Out of seven groups, the Brahmin and Muslim independently form two clustres i.e. B and C respectively. whereas the rest i.e. the non-Brahmin H…
Birth Rate and Death Rate of Tripura (1971-1989)
Time series analysis on birth and death rates (1471-1989) of Tripura has been preformed to ex-amine the trend in the successive intervals. The study reveals that in Tripura the death rates are less than half of the birth rates of total, rural and urban population. The imbalance between the birth and death rates emerge as one of the principal causes for population growth in the State. The oilier probable reason for rapid population growth is the h…
A Study of Numerical Taxonomy and Group Divergence in Five Mangoloid Population Groups of Assam
Anthropometric characters of five Mongoloid populations, namely, the Ahom. Chutia, Deuri, Mishing and Moran of Upper Assam have been examined to study the numerical taxonomy and group divergence using the methodology of Penrose (1947. 1954) and Rao (1952), The study reveals three distinct clusters. viz., cluster II: formed by the Deuri and Chutia, cluster II: formed by the Mishing and Moran and cluster HI: formed by the Ahom alone. It appears tha…
