This study was conducted to determine the factors associated with the incidence of gastritis in Tanjung Pinang Village, Jambi City. The research design used was quantitative with a cross sectional approach. The population in this study was the productive age community in the area of Tanjung Pinang which numbered 9,489 people. The sampling technique uses Random Sampling techniques with a total sample of 95 respondents. This research was conducted on September 28, October 16, 2018. Data obtained were analyzed by univariate and bivariate using the Chi-Square test. The results showed that there was a relationship between eating patterns with the incidence of gastritis p-value 0,000 (P-Value <0.05), coffee consumption with the incidence of gastritis p-value 0.027 (P-Value <0.05) and the relationship of stress levels with Gastritis incidence p-value 0,000 (P-Value <0.05). It is expected that respondents and the community will always maintain a regular diet, reduce or limit coffee consumption in a day, and exercise for one hour and relax regularly, recreation/refreshing, share or manage work time properly

Acute respiratory infections (ARI) are the commonest infections in children under the age of five years inNepal. An under five child will have 4-6 episodes of ARI per year in Nepal. ARI episode does not differmuch between developed and developing countries. Pneumonia is the commonest single cause that causesdeath in a child with respiratory infections in developing countries. Treating pneumonia is still confusing.This article re-visits the basic concept in the treatment of pneumonia.Key Words: Pneumonia, persistent, pneumonia, antibiotics, treatment.

Background: The World Health Organization (WHO) recommends the use of tachypnea as a proxy to the diagnosis of pneumonia. Objective: The purpose of this study was to examine the relationship between body temperature alterations and respiratory rate (RR) difference (RRD) in children with acute respiratory infections(ARI). Methods:This cross-sectional study included 297 children with age 2-60 months who presented with cough and fever at the pediatric emergency and outpatient clinics in the Department of Pediatrics, Baskent University Hospital, from January 2016 through June 2018. Each parent completed a structured questionnaire to collect background data. Weight and height were taken. Body temperature, respiratory rate, presence of the chest indrawing, rales, wheezing and laryngeal stridor were also recorded. RRD was defined as the differences in RR at admission and after 3 days of treatment. Results: Both respiratory rate and RRD were moderately correlated with body temperature (r=0.71, p<0.001 and r=0.65, p<0.001; respectively). For every 1°C increase in temperature, RRD increased by 5.7/minutes in overall, 7.2/minute in the patients under 12 months of age, 6.4/minute in the female. The relationship between body temperature and RRD wasn’t statistically significant in patients with rhonchi, chest indrawing, and low oxygen saturation. Conclusion: Respiratory rate should be evaluated according to the degree of body temperature in children with ARI. How- ever, the interaction between body temperature and respiratory rate could not be observed in cases with rhonchi and severe pneumonia. Keywords: Fever; tachypnea; pneumonia; respiratory rate difference; children.

 Introduction: Acute Respiratory Infection (ARI) is one of the leading causes of morbidity and mortality in under five-year children. Risk factors include age, sex, socio‐economic status, indoor air pollution, passive smoking, lack of basic health services, and lack of awareness. In this study, we aimed to determine the associated risk factors of ARI in children under five-years of age. Methods: We carried out a hospital-based descriptive cross-sectional study in the peak period of of November 2017 to February 2018. The study was conducted in Fishtail Hospital and Research Center (FHRC), Pokhara, Nepal. Non probability, purposive sampling technique was used and a structural interview was taken for data collection. The tool comprised of two main parts. Part I- questions related to socio-demographic variables of mother and baby. Part II- questions related to risk factors of ARI. The collected data was analyzed using Statistical Package for Social Science (SPSS) software, version 16. The Chi Square statistic is used for testing relationships between categorical variables. Results: In total of 302 children visited to FHRC with the symptoms of ARI, only 188 (63%) were diagnosed as ARI. The most common symptoms were fever (42.2%), cough (35.7%), running nose (34.1%), difficulty in breathing (28.5%) and chest in drawing (11.6%). The age of children with ARI ranged from one to sixty month with the mean age of 21.46 ±13.52. Among 188 children, 51% were males whereas 49%were females. There were no statistically differences of children weight at birth among ARI. Our results revealed environmental and social factors associated with ARI. Conclusions: The risk factors significantly associated with ARI were malnutrition, exposure to wood smoke and mosquito coil and contact with person having ARI. Reducing these conditions may reduce the morbidity and mortality associated with ARI in children.

Background: Malnutrition continues to be a major problem in India and is rightfully described as “the silent emergency.” Sociocultural factors and rural urban disparity in health services in our country further impact the health outcomes. The effects of malnutrition are long-term and trap generations in the vicious circle of poverty. Improving nutrition is therefore essential to accelerate economic growth and development of the country.Methods: It was a community-based cross-sectional study conducted among 200 under five children residing in rural Udaipur, Rajasthan. Random sampling technique was used to select the study participants. A structured validated questionnaire was used to collect socio demographic data, birth history, Anganwadi beneficiary status etc. Mid upper arm circumference (MUAC), weight and heights were recorded and classified as underweight, wasted and stunted, using standard World Health Organization (WHO) guidelines.Results: This study revealed that 58% of the study population was stunted, 45% was wasted, 54% was underweight and 5% was overweight of the study population was overweight. Regarding the association of malnutrition parameters with other factors, it was found that malnutrition was high among female children, lower socioeconomic class, children of low educated mothers and children who were not exclusively breast fed.Conclusions: To combat malnutrition in India, there is need of multifaceted approach, taking into account the sociocultural determinants, demographic variables, especially in rural areas. In addition to providing supplementary nutrition, innovations regarding specific interventions targeted towards vulnerable population is necessary.

Stunting is one of the nutritional problems experienced by toddlers in the world today. In 2017, 22.2% of children under five in the world were stunted. Indonesia is included in the third country with the highest prevalence in the Southeast Asia region, the prevalence of children under five with stunting in Indonesia in 2005-2017 was 36.4%. Aims to determine the risk factors for stunting in children under five in the working area of ​​the Baraka Community Health Center, Enrekang Regency. This study used the analytical survey method with the Cross Sectional Study approach using the simple random sampling technique, which means that the sample taken is where each element or member of the population has the same opportunity to be selected as the sample. The sample size in this study was taken using the Slovin formula. The location was carried out in the working area of ​​the Baraka Community Health Center, Enrekang Regency. The research time was 1 month. The sample in this study amounted to 94 people with the process of data collection and data collection was carried out by interview techniques. The results showed that exclusive breastfeeding (p = 0.002), complementary breastfeeding (p = 0.002) had a relationship with the incidence of stunting, while there was no relationship between LBW (p = 0.106), gestational age (p = 0.303), and maternal nutritional status ( KEK) (p = 0.229) with the incidence of stunting.
