A comparative study of the prevalence of BA was carried out. A questionnaire was administered to 2899 parents of first-graders, using the international standardized ISAAC program. Results. The prevalence of BA symptoms on the ISAAC program among elementary schoolchildren in the Udmurt Republic in 2020 was 7.70.2%, being significantly lower than in the previous studies of 2002 and 2009 (p0.001). Conclusion. There was a further downward trend in the prevalence of AD symptoms in younger schoolchildren. The difference between the current symptoms of the disease and the established diagnosis remained rather significant. Reliable (p10.001) increase in the number of children with dry cough, not related to cold, and children with bronchospasm connected with physical load was revealed.

The purpose of the article is to study the volumes, forms, content, specific subjects of grandparental labor, to assess the determinants of the frequency of implementation of this type of labor. We used the data of a sociological survey conducted in May-June 2021. Residents of the Sverdlovsk region who have both minor children and their parents and(or) their spouse’s parents living at the same time were interviewed. The main results are as follows: 1) every fifth parent surveyed uses the help of grandparents on an almost daily basis; the same number-on weekends. In a little more than a quarter of cases, there is no grandparental assistance to families; 2) raising grandchildren is the most common form of assistance to a family with children from the older generation; 3) parents on the part of the child’s mother often perform the functions of grandparental labor than parents on the part of the child’s father; 4) most often, grandparents perform a communicative function; then follows the introduction to work, then accompanying children to various educational institutions, organizing leisure activities, attending cultural events, etc.; 5) in the group of parents who are not helped by grandparents, the average number of children is higher; 6) more intense desire to increase the amount of assistance from the grandparents is expressed by those parents who are currently less often helped by grandparents. The results obtained can be used in the development of tools aimed at activating grandparental labor in Russia, as well as mechanisms for stimulating it.

Abortion is an essential social and public health issue. The diverse opinions about abortion originate from several factors that affect attitudes toward abortion. Using the world-value survey (2010-2014), this study sought to understand if Ghanaians and Nigerians justify abortion and the factors that inform why they justify abortion. Various sociodemographic variables (religion, religious attendance, gender, and the number of children born) were used to understand their association with justification for abortion. The results here replicate what other studies have found, with emphasis on the relationship that exists between sex and justification of abortion. The study revealed the influence of religion and religious attendance on justifying abortion cut across Ghana and Nigeria. The findings carry implications as to how the debate on abortion can be undertaken in West Africa.

There is a phenomenon among the Javanese ethnic population, in which many wedding ceremonies are held whenever the Javanese calendar points to particular months such as Besar, Rejeb, and Ruwah, because marrying in those months is believed to bring good fortune. This study aimed to analyze the influence of wedding date determination through pitungan and feeling safe on birth variations of first-born and the number of children the wife gives birth to. The research was conducted in Blitar City, Blitar Regency, and Surabaya City with 193 married couples. Linear Regression and Chi-square were the statistical tests used in this research. Chi-square and Linear Regression tests proved that pitungan affects the birth variations of first-born (p = 0.004; p = 0.004) and the number of children a couple has (p = 0.007; p = 0.002). Both Chi-square and Linear Regression proved that feeling safe (roso slamet) does not have any significant effect on birth variations of first-born (p = 0.162; p = 0.767) and the number of children in household (p = 0.863; p = 0.680). The conclusion is that there is an important relationship between pitungan and birth variation in which the more pitungan is done, the sooner first-born is given birth to and the more children a married couple has.
