Community-based Study, Demographic and Socio-Economic Factors Associated with TB in Rural Jaipur NIMS Hospital
Abstract: This study showed that fewer women sought care in out-patient clinics for respiratory symptoms, fewer submitted sputum for testing, and if tested, fewer were smear-positive. This implies persistent lower representation of females at the different clinical steps for TB management using DOTS at community level. These findings raise grave concerns about the gender sensitive DOTS strategy for TB control. The findings indicate that an epidemiology of TB complicated by gender …

An Institution-based Cross-sectional Study on Magnitude and Factors Affecting Communication on Sexual and Reproductive Health Issues with Their Parents among Secondary and Preparatory School Students in Gimbi Town, Oromia Regional State, Ethiopia, 2015
Abstract: Inadequate reproductive health knowledge has been identified as one of the underlying reasons for poor sexual decision-making and risky behavior among young people. Parent-young people’s communication regarding sexuality and reproductive health is an important and effective means of encouraging young people to adopt, responsible, sexual and reproductive behaviors. Yet, the status of the communication level is not well investigated and literatures recommended further studies on parent-young people’s communication. Therefore, the …
