Abstract

Background: Fluorosis is an endemic health problem in twenty-five nations around the globe. Objectives:To correlate fluoride content of groundwater and health status of affected population and suggest remedialmeasures. Methodology: A cross-sectional research design is followed because people from different agegroups were sampled, observations were made and skeletal examinations were conducted at a specified pointof time. The study is conducted in Yavatmal and Chandrapur districts of Vidarbha region of MaharashtraState. Health related surveys were carried out in 54 villages from study area selected on the basis of highfluoride level in groundwater. Result: Out of these, 32 villages are selected from Yavatmal district havinga population of 30320 and 22 villages from Chandrapur district with a population of 21581. Out of thetotal population of 51901 total 3268 subjects have been examined. Amongst these subjects 1760 were male(53.86%) and 1508 were female (46.14%). Out of the total 3268 subjects 2445 subjects included in the‘normal’ grade, which does not show indications of skeletal fluorosis. It has been observed that as theconcentration of fluoride increases the cases of ‘normal’ grade decreases. Out of the 360 subjects studied,about 102 (28.33%) subjects show radiological evidences of skeletal fluorosis. Mild radiological fluorosiswas seen in 55, moderate in 21, severe in 17 and very severe radiological fluorosis in 9 subjects. Conclusion:Based on the outcome of the research work carried out in the study area, it is recommended that awarenessamong the people residing in the area about the protection & prevention of groundwater contamination fromdifferent sources, groundwater quality, its impacts on health, soil and plants should be created on prioritybasis.

Each scenario consisted of 5 questions that rated the severity, likelihood ofconfronting, internal disclosure, external disclosure to the association and external disclosure to media. Thescoring was based on five point likert scale. It was a study that was done with convenient sampling method.The questionnaire was given to 100 Physiotherapy students in Chennai of both the sexes who were willingto participate in the study. Result: From the statistical analysis, there is a significant difference obtained forthe likelihood of reporting the manager’s misconduct than colleague’s misconduct. Also their willingnessto report internally within the organization is greater than that of reporting externally to the associationand to the media. Conclusion: Ethics being a part of Physiotherapy curriculum, these students have wellunderstood the ethical and professional behavior and have good ethical acceptance.
