Abstract

Background: Diarrheal disease is a health problem until now and is the leading cause of death in toddlers. It is also supported by environmental sanitation and personal hygiene of the community which is still poor. The use of bad water sources will also affect the quality of the water, so it can increase the risk of diarrhea in the community. Method: This type of research is analytical observational with cross sectional design. The samples used were 75 out of a population of 523 mothers who had toddlers and lived in Purwodadi Village, Purwodadi Subdistrict, Pasuruan Regency, with purposive sampling techniques. Using questionnaire method, as well as statistical test using chi-square with the help of computer software. Result: The results of this study showed that there was a significant association between the location of the sheltered water source as many as 38 respondents (50.7%) and unprotected as many as 37 respondents (49.3%) with a value of p = 0.003, as well as the physical quality of water that qualified as many as 37 respondents (49.3%) and did not qualify as many as 38 respondents (50.7%) with a value of p = 0.000, against the incidence of diarrhea in toddlers, where the value of p ≤ 0.05. Conclusion: Location of water source and physical quality of water is related to the incidence of diarrhea in toddlers

Abstract

Background and Objectives: Cardiorespiratory endurance refers to the ability of the heart and lungs to deliver oxygen to working muscles during continuous physical activity, which is an important indicator of physical health. Physical activity is a complex multidimensional behaviour that is difficult to assess in free-living populations and for which a gold standard measurement does not exist. Thereby, we assessed cardiovascular fitness among young sedentary adults using 1600 M walking test Methods:   The study participants were assessed for Pulse rate, Respiratory rate, Blood pressure and oxygen saturation at rest followed by 1st, 2nd, 3rd and after 5 minutes after 1600 M walking test. Results: There were no significant changes in pulse rate, respiratory rate, blood pressure; both systolic and diastolic blood pressure, and oxygen saturation across both the genders after performing 1600 M walk at 1st 2nd and 5th minutes except significant changes for respiratory rate (P=0.03) & systolic blood pressure (P =0.02). Conclusion: There is no single gold standard for estimating the cardiac endurance and fitness. It has to be assessed for Vo2 along with basic parameters and need to be repeated to validate the outcome and reduce the bias in case of aerobic exercises.

Abstract

Background & Aim: Acute viral hepatitis (AVH) is a condition that is known to be caused by enterically transmitting Hepatitis A virus (HAV) and Hepatitis E virus (HEV). Usually, they result in self-limiting disease but can be seriously threatening if complications arise. This study was done to determine the prevalence rate of HAV and HEV in a tertiary care hospital in East Delhi, India. Material & Methods: The retrospective and observational study of 2-year duration was conducted in the Department of Microbiology at UCMS and GTBH Delhi, India. A total of 410 samples from patients presenting with a clinical diagnosis of acute hepatitis were considered in the study. The serum samples were analysed for IgM anti-HAV and IgM anti-HEV, respectively, using commercially available ELISA kits. Results: The seroprevalence of HAV and HEV were 2.19% and 0.24%, respectively. No case was found to be reactive for both parameters, indicating no case of co-infection. The majority of clinical samples were from female patients. Conclusion: The incidence of HEV and HAV illnesses suggests that East Delhi has a lower prevalence rate of the reported viral illnesses. This finding suggests one of the following: limited circulation of the agents, good sanitary conditions, and/or protective immunity among the population tested. Nonetheless, we should continue to assess the ongoing conditions and take measures to improve them.
