Abstract ABSTRACT Background: Even though postpartum IUCD is effective, reliable, safe and recommended contraceptive method during postpartum women, only a small amount of mother who gave birth in health facilities used PPIUCD in the world. Besides the underlining problem and as to the knowledge of the researcher; nothing is known in Gamo zone about the determinants of PPIUCD. Therefore, this study aimed to assess determinants of postpartum IUCD utilization among mothers who gave birth in Gamo zone health facilities, southern Ethiopia, 2019. Methods: a facility based unmatched case control study was conducted in Gamo zone public health facilities, southern Ethiopia. A total of 536(179 cases and 357 controls) participants were selected in the study with a 1:2 case to control ratio. Data was collected by a pretested interviewer administered questionnaires from March 1 to April 15 2019. The data was coded, cleaned and entered by Epi-Info version 3.5.1 and exported to SPSS version 25 for advanced analysis. Bivariable and multivariable logistic regression analysis were performed to identify the determinants. Result: A total of 510(175 cases and 335 control) were involved in the study, which makes a response rate of 95.1%. The odds of mothers who have partner support for IUCD insertion were ten times more likely to utilize PPIUCD than those do not have partner support. (AOR (95 CI) 10(4.03, 24.3)). Mothers who have a birth interval of 1-2 year and 3-5 years 12 and almost 10 times more likely to utilize PPIUCD than mothers who have greater than five years. (AOR (95 CI) 12.0(1.5, 97.7), 9.7(1.7, 55.1)) respectively. The odds of mothers who are spacer four times more likely to utilize PPIUCD than limiters (AOR (95 CI) 4(1.44,10.84)). Mothers who are counseled during early labor around 88% less likely to utilize PPIUCD than those counseled during ANC (AOR (95 CI) .125(.034, .46)). Conclusion and recommendation : Birth interval, fertility plan, timing of counseling, pregnancy plan and partner support were determinant factors. Therefore, health professionals better to give counseling by incorporating partners during antenatal follow up and after delivery. Key words : Postpartum IUCD, Gamo zone, unmatched case control, determinant factors

There is little available evidence that quantifies the determinats of NNM in Ethiopia despite an increasing magnitude of neonatal mortality. Therefore, this study was designed to provide concrte evidence about the determinats of NNMS among neonates admitted to Guji and Borena Zones Public Hospitals, Southern Ethiopia, 2021. A facility based unmatched case control study design was conducted on 402 (134 cases and 268 controls) selected neonates admitted to Bule Hora, Adola and Yabelo General Hospitals from February 1-March 31, 2021. Cases were consecutively selected. Whereas for each case, two controls were selected by systematic random sampling technique. The data collection included a pretested and structured face-to-face interviewer administered questionnaire with a supplementation of maternal and neonatal medical records with checklists. Then the data were coded and entered in to Epi data version 3.1 and then exported to the Statistical Package for Social Science IBM version 25 for analysis. The descriptive statistics run and the results of the data were presented using frequencies, and tables. Bivariable and multi variable logistic regression was used for the analsysis of the data. Finally, Adjusted Odds Ratio together with 95% Confidence Intervals and p value <0.05 was used to declare the significance of all statistic. A total of 134 cases (neonatal near misses) and 268 controls (normal neonate) were participated in this study to make a response rate of 100% for both cases, and controls. In this study rural residence (AOR = 0.51, 95% CI: 0.27, 0.96), previous history of neonatal death (AOR = 4.85, 95%CI: 2.24,10.49), birth interval ≤ 2 years (AOR = 1.83, 95% CI: 1.04, 3.11) and history of abortion (both induced and miscarriage) (AOR = 1.97, 95%CI: 1.17, 3.31) were found to be statistically significant at a p-value of <0.05. History of prior abortion history of prior neonatal death and short birth interval (≤ 2 years) were identified to be the determinats of NNMs. High quality antenatal and intrapartum continuum of care should be provided for women and neonates. Additionally, contraceptive utilization should be encouraged for a women to space the births of their children.

Common bean is among the major crops grown in southern Ethiopia including Borana zone where the majority of the farmers are Agro-pastoralist and produce the crop mainly for home consumption. The area has potential to the production of common bean for food and nutrition security as well as export commodity. However, scarcity of varieties that fit to the environment is one of the major constraints of production. Therefore, this experiment was conducted to evaluate 36 common bean genotypes including seven released varieties to evaluate performance of genotypes for yield and agronomic traits. The field experiment was conducted in 2015 at two locations (Abaya and Yabello) and genotypes were planted in triple lattice design. Data were collected on yield and important agronomic traits. Analysis of variance computed for individual locations and combined analysis over locations revealed significant variations among genotypes for all traits. Moreover, 16.67% of the genotypes had mean grain yield greater than the best performing released variety across locations and the genotypes showed a grain yield as high as 3.25 tons ha-1. Based on results of this study it is recommended to test the high yielding and early maturing genotypes at many locations to develop preferred varieties across many locations.
