This study investigated beliefs about sensitive parenting of cross-generational caregivers from urban and rural areas of China. A total sample of 135 urban and rural mothers and grandmothers sorted the Maternal Behavior Q-Sort to indicate their view of the ideal mother. These sorts were compared with the expert sort reflecting the highly sensitive mother as defined in attachment theory. Generally, the caregivers from both generations and both urban and rural residence showed beliefs convergent with the notion of sensitivity. The variation in their sensitivity beliefs could be predicted by the caregivers’ generation and this relation was mediated by the caregivers’ education levels. The mothers’ higher educational level predicted views that were more in line with the experts’ view of sensitivity. Caregivers’ education levels also mediated between their urban or rural residence and sensitivity beliefs. The possible implications for differences in parental care and grandparental care in the Chinese cultural context are discussed.

ABSTRACT Postpartum hemorrhage is bleeding that exceeds 500 ml after the baby is born in vaginal delivery and exceeds 1000 ml after abdominal labor before 6 weeks of delivery. However, even a smaller amount of blood loss is very dangerous especially in anemic pregnant women. The purpose of this study was to determine the description of anemia in maternal with the incidence of postpartum hemorrhage.  This research is a descriptive study with cross sectional design using secondary data from medical records for the period of January 1 to December 31 in 2018 taken from two hospitals representing type A hospitals and Type B Hospitals in Palembang, namely RSUP Dr.  Mohammad Hoesin and Siti Khodijah Islamic Hospital Palembang with a total sample of 176. Data analysis used univariate analysis of the variables descriptively to determine the appearance of anemia in the incidence of postpartum hemorrhage. The results showed that of 111 mothers who experienced anemia there were 53 (47.7%) who experienced postpartum hemorrhage while of 65 mothers who were not anemic 14 (21.5%) had postpartum hemorrhage. The conclusion of this study is the picture of anemia in pregnant women tends to experience postpartum hemorrhage. Therefore, the government's action in an effort to prevent anemia in pregnant women by providing iron tablet supplements still needs to be done by looking at the socioeconomic conditions and education levels of the Indonesian people which are still mostly included in the poor category especially in rural areas. Keyword : Anemia; Post Partum Hemorrhage    ABSTRAK Perdarahan postpartum merupakan perdarahan yang melebihi 500 ml setelah bayi lahir pada persalinan pervaginam dan melebihi 1000 ml setelah persalinan abdominal sebelum 6 minggu persalinan. Akan tetapi kehilangan darah dengan jumlah yang lebih kecilpun sangat berbahaya khususnya pada keadaan wanita hamil yang anemis. Tujuan penelitian ini untuk mengetahui gambaran anemia pada ibu bersalin dengan kejadian perdarahan postpartum. Penelitian ini adalah penelitian deskriptif dengan desain cross sectional dengan menggunakan data sekunder rekam medik periode 1 Januari s/d 31 Desember tahun 2018 yang diambil dari dua rumah sakit yang mewakili rumah sakit tipe A dan Rumah Sakit Tipe B yang ada di Kota Palembang yaitu RSUP Dr. Mohammad Hoesin dan Rumah Sakit Islam Siti Khodijah Palembang dengan total jumlah sampel sebanyak 176. Analisis data menggunakan univariat yaitu menganalisis variabel secara deskriptif untuk mengetahui gambaran anemia pada kejadian perdarahan postpartum. Hasil penelitian didapatkan bahwa dari 111 ibu yang mengalami anemia ada sebanyak 53 (47,7%) yang mengalami perdarahan postpartum sedangkan dari 65 ibu yang tidak anemia ada 14 (21,5%) mengalami perdarahan postpartum. Kesimpulan dari penelitian ini adalah gambaran anemia pada ibu hamil cendrung mengalami perdarahan postpartum. Oleh sebab itu tindakan pemerintah dalam upaya mecegah anemia pada ibu hamil dengan pemberian suplemen tablet besi tetap perlu dilakukan secara melihat kondisi sosial ekonomi dan tingkat pendidikan masyarakat Indonesia yang masih sebagian besar masih termasuk dalam kategori miskin terutama didaerah pedesaan.

The study investigates how the territorial community can influence the individual and social well-being of lesbian, gay, bisexual (LGB) youth and especially the recognition of their feelings and the construction of their own identity as well as their needs to be socially recognized. This research focuses on the experiences of 30 LGB individuals (23 males and 7 females), with a mean age of 25.07 years (SD = 4,578), living in urban and rural areas of Southern Italy. Focalized open interviews were conducted, and the Grounded Theory Methodology, supported by the Atlas.ti 8.0 software, was used for data analysis. The textual material was first coded, and then codes were grouped into five macro-categories: Freedom of identity expression in the urban and rural context, identity construction and acceptance process, need of aggregation and identification with the LGB community, role of the interpersonal relationship in the process of identity acceptance, socio-cultural context, and LGB psychological well-being. The results showed a condition common to the two contexts that we can define as “ghettoization.” The young LGB is alone in the rural area due to a lack of places and people to identify with and greater social isolation. On the contrary, although there are more opportunities in the urban area, young people feel stigmatized and ghettoized because “their places” are frequented exclusively by the lesbian, gay, bisexual, transexual, queer (LGBTQ) community. The work will extensively discuss the limitations of the research, future proposals, and the practical implications of the results.

The combination of digital finance and financial inclusion can better meet the needs of those who have little access to financial services. This paper investigated the differences in the determinants and mechanisms of digital financial inclusion development between urban and rural areas. The sample consists of 1607 counties in China from 2014 to 2019, and uses the fixed-effect model and panel threshold technique. The empirical results indicate that: (1) The industrial economy and governmental intervention are the common determinants of urban and rural digital financial inclusion development, in which the degree is different. At the same time, secondary education is only a determinant in rural areas. (2) Industrial upgrading and indirect finance play a mediating role in the determinants of digital financial inclusion, but indirect finance is only significant for urban areas. (3) There is a threshold effect in the financial development-digital financial inclusion relationship. Under different financial development levels, the determinants of urban and rural digital financial inclusion show the discrepancy. With the development of digital financial inclusion under the trend of promoting innovative digital finance in China, these findings are expected to enhance access to financial services in urban and rural areas for more inclusive and sustainable futures.

Data on management practices, incidences of common diseases, uses of indigenous knowledge (IK) and conditions and problems of the poultry farmers in some selected areas of Rajshahi, Bangladesh, were investigated. Data from small, medium and large poultry enterprises situated in the urban, semi-urban and rural areas at six Upozillas of Rajshahi District viz., Boalia, Godagari, Motihar, Mohonpur, Poba and Rajpara were collected. An indigenous (IND), four exotic (EXO) viz. Cob 500 breed of broiler, Cockerel, Fayoumi (FAY), and Rhode Island Red (RIR), and a crossbred (CRO) called Sonali (derived from RIR cock × FAY hen) chicken breeds were included in the study. Eighteen parameters on management practices, 13 diseases, 20 indigenous knowledge (IK) items, 3 major conditions, 11 problems encountered and top 10 opinions of the poultry farmers were identified. Satisfactory to good management practices were recorded for IND in Godagari and that for EXO and CRO in Rajpara. All the remaining farms practiced moderate to unacceptable management practices. Bacillary white diarrhoea (39.56%), omphalitis (57.40%) and hypervitaminosis (55.56%) were the most frequent diseases whereas common cold (10.16%), bacillary white diarrhoea (32.82%) and bacillary white diarrhoea (27.62%) were the least frequent diseases for IND, EXO and CRO chickens, respectively. However, no incidence of bird flu (avian influenza) was recorded during the survey period. Uses of broody hens (82.25%), changing of waterier (62.45) and vaccination (49.19) were found to be the prevalent IK items for IND, EXO and CRO birds. Separating healthy versus diseased respectively, chicks (26.45%), feeding maize grain (52.45%) and feeding molasses (49.10%) were healthcare IK items for the chicken breeds, respectively. Majority of the poultry farmers of IND, EXO and CRO breeds had respectively primary (50.08%), graduate (47.18%) and higher secondary (45.77%) education levels. Agriculture (60.71%), miscellaneous (46.14%) and miscellaneous (35.50%) were dominant occupations among the three categories of poultry farmers. IND farmers predominantly had cultivable land (50.16%) in comparison with the cultivable landholdings by the EXO (21.69%) and homestead landholdings by their CRO (31.16%) counterparts. Poor housing (44.86%), disorganized and unreliable marketing system (52.05%) and lack of institutional credit facilities (47.89%) were identified to be the major problems for the IND, EXO and CRO farmers respectively, who opined strongly in favour of improved native breeds (30.04%), proper breeding facilities (49.90%) and government co-operation (48.01%). The impacts of these findings on the poultry enterprise in Rajshahi have been discussed. DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.3329/jles.v7i0.20120 J. Life Earth Sci., Vol. 7: 43-49, 2012

Abstract Objective Enhancing financial protection in health is one of the main goals of Iran’s health transformation program (HTP), a recent reform conducted in early 2014. This study aimed to measure financial protection using the fair financial contribution index (FFCI) in urban and rural areas before (2008–2013) and after (2014–2018) the HTP implementation. Using a retrospective study on annual national cross-sectional surveys of households' income and expenditure, FFCI was measured. The total sample sizes for urban and rural areas from 2008 to 2018 were 207,980 and 212,249 households, respectively. Results The worst fair contributions to health expenditure in urban (FFCI = 0.684) and rural areas (FFCI = 0.530) were related to 2010 and 2009, respectively. Otherwise, the best fair contributions for urban (FFCI = 0.858) and rural (FFCI = 0.836) areas were made in 2011. Before the HTP implementation began, FFCI showed minor changes from 0.834 in 2008 to 0.833 in 2013. Following the HTP implementation, the FFCI values in urban and rural populations declined (worsened) from 0.842 to 0.836 and 0.816 to 0.809, respectively.On average more fair financial contributions had been made following five years after the HTP, especially in rural areas, but less than that expected in upstream documents (as determined 0.9).
