SUMMARYThis study was performed to investigate space–time patterns ofCampylobacterspp. colonization in broiler flocks in Norway. Data on theCampylobacterspp. status at the time of slaughter of 16 054 broiler flocks from 580 farms between 2002 and 2006 was included in the study. Spatial relative risk maps together with maps of space–time clustering were generated, the latter by using spatial scan statistics. These maps identified the same areas almost every year where there was a higher risk for a broiler flock to test positive forCampylobacterspp. during the summer months. A modifiedK-function analysis showed significant clustering at distances between 2·5 and 4 km within different years. The identification of geographical areas with higher risk forCampylobacterspp. colonization in broilers indicates that there are risk factors associated withCampylobacterspp. colonization in broiler flocks varying with region and time, e.g. climate, landscape or geography. These need to be further explored. The results also showed clustering at shorter distances indicating that there are risk factors forCampylobacterspp. acting in a more narrow scale as well.

Abstract Background Micronutrient deficiencies are the most prevalent nutritional deficiencies that cause serious developmental problems in the globe. The aim of this study was to assess the spatial distribution of iron rich foods consumption and its associated factors among children aged 6–23 months in Ethiopia. Methods The data retrieved from the standard Ethiopian Demographic and Health Survey 2016 dataset with a total sample size of 3055 children aged 6–23 months. Spatial scan statistics done using Kuldorff’s SaTScan version 9.6 software. ArcGIS version 10.7 software used to visualize spatial distribution for poor consumption of iron rich foods. Multilevel mixed-effects logistic regression analysis employed to identify the associated factors for good consumption of iron-rich foods. Level of statistical significance was declared at a two-sided P-value < 0.05. Results Overall, 21.41% (95% CI: 19.9–22.9) of children aged 6–23 months had good consumption of iron rich foods in Ethiopia. Poor consumption of iron rich foods highly clustered at Southern Afar, Southeastern Amhara and Tigray, and the Northern part of Somali Regional States of Ethiopia. In spatial scan statistics, children aged 6–23 months living in the most likely cluster were 21% more likely vulnerable to poor consumption of iron rich foods than those living outside the window (RR = 1.21, P-value < 0.001). Child aged 12–17 months (AOR = 1.90, 95% CI: 1.45–2.49) and 18–23 months (AOR = 2.05, 95% CI: 1.55–2.73), primary (AOR = 1.42, 95% CI:1.06–1.87) and secondary and above (AOR = 2.26, 95% CI: 1.47–3.46) mother’s education level, rich (AOR = 1.49, 95% CI: 1.04–2.13) and middle (AOR = 1.83, 95% CI: 1.31–2.57) household wealth status, Amhara (AOR = 0.24, 95% CI: 0.09–0.60), Afar (AOR = 0.38, 95% CI: 0.17–0.84), and Harari (AOR = 2.11, 95% CI: 1.02–4.39) regional states of Ethiopia were statistically significant factors for good consumption of iron rich foods. Conclusion Overall, the consumption of iron rich foods was low and spatially non-random in Ethiopia. Federal Ministry of Health and other stakeholders should give prior attention to the identified hot spot areas to enhance the consumption of iron rich foods among children aged 6–23 months.
