The article presents data on the psychological health characteristics of the first-graders of different groups, depending on the prevalence of the number of medical and biological risk factors in early ontogeny. 193 first-graders of Arkhangelsk schools were examined with a set of sixteen techniques that allow describe the characteristics of personal health at the physiological, psychophysiological, psychological, and socio-psychological levels. Statistical analysis carried out with the methods of descriptive statistics and stepwise discriminant analysis. Data processing performed using SPSS 22.00 software package. Based on the results obtained, the authors conclude that with an increase in the number of biomedical risk factors of dysontogenesis in a child’s anamnesis, there is an increase in the scope of their influence on the different levels and characteristics of the psychological health of the sampled schoolchildren. First-graders of the group with the least amount of biomedical risk factors are characterized by higher characteristics of personal health. A combination of biomedical risk factors in the early periods of ontogenetic development of first-graders can lead to disadaptation processes in the physiological, psychophysiological, cognitive, emotional, regulatory, communicative, spiritual and moral spheres, various somatic health disorders and school difficulties. The number of biomedical risk factors in early ontogeny is a barometer for predicting personal health impairments, which, in turn, requires timely prevention and correction.

The paper presents results of a study on the effects of unfavourable socioeconomic factors in preschool development on the features of school adaptation in children of Arkhangelsk city. The study involved 193 first-graders aged 7—8 years. A set of sixteen methods was used to describe the components of school adaptation: cognitive, emotional, emotional-behavioral, behavioral. Socioeconomic risk factors were analysed using the Social Family Passport technique. Statistical analysis was conducted using descriptive statistics, correlation and stepwise discriminant analysis. The most frequent factors of socioeconomic deprivation are the following: drastic changes in the child’s life; disparity in the estimated values of the family’s living expenses; parental alcoholism and smoking; incomplete families, etc. It is shown that adverse socioeconomic factors in preschool childhood have a controversial effect on the features of school adaptation in children, but are definitely a significant risk for all of its components.

In Software engineering software metrics play wide and deeper scope. Many projects fail because of risks in software engineering development[1]t. Among various risk factors creeping is also one factor. The paper discusses approximate volume of creeping requirements that occur after the completion of the nominal requirements phase. This is using software size measured in function points at four different levels. The major risk factors are depending both directly and indirectly associated with software size of development. Hence It is possible to predict risk due to creeping cause using size.

Abstract Background Greater cognitive performance has been shown to be associated with better mental and physical health and lower mortality. The present study contributes to the existing literature on the linkages of self-perceived income sufficiency and cognitive impairment. Study also provides additional insights on other socioeconomic and health-related variables that are associated with cognitive impairment in older ages. Methods Data for this study is derived from the 'Building Knowledge Base on Population Ageing in India'. The final sample size for the analysis after removing missing cases was 9176 older adults. Descriptive along with bivariate analyses were presented to show the plausible associations of cognitive impairment with potential risk factors using the chi-square test. Also, binary logistic regression analysis was performed to provide the relationship between cognitive impairment and risk factors. The software used was STATA 14. Results About 43% of older adults reported that they had no source of income and 7.2% had income but not sufficient to fulfil their basic needs. Older adults with income but partially sufficient to fulfil their basic needs had 39% significantly higher likelihood to suffer from cognitive impairment than older adults who had sufficient income [OR: 1.39; OR: 1.21–1.59]. Likelihood of cognitive impairment was low among older adults with asset ownership than older adults with no asset ownership [OR: 0.83; CI: 0.72–0.95]. Again, older adults who work by compulsion (73.3%) or felt mental or physical stress due to work (57.6%) had highest percentage of cognitive impairment. Moreover, older adults with poor self-rated health, low instrumental activities of daily living, low activities of daily living, low subjective well-being and low psychological health were at increased risk for cognitive impairment. Conclusion The study highlights the pressing need for care and support and especially financial incentives in the old age to preserve cognitive health. Further, while planning geriatric health care for older adults in India, priority must be given to financially backward, with no asset ownership, with poor health status, older-older, widowed, and illiterate older individuals, as they are more vulnerable to cognitive impairment.

Stroke Risk Factors

Background. Knowledge of stroke risk factors is expected to reduce the incidence of stroke—whether first-ever or recurrent. This study examined knowledge of stroke risk factors and its determinants among stroke survivors.Methods. A cross-sectional survey of consenting stroke survivors at two physiotherapy facilities in Nigeria was carried out. Sociodemographic and clinical data were obtained and knowledge of stroke risk factors (defined as the ability to mention at least one correct risk factor) was assessed using open-ended questionnaire. Data were treated with descriptive statistics and logistic regression analysis.Results. Sixty-nine stroke survivors (male = 72.5%; mean ± SD age =49.7±10.6years) participated in the study. Thirty-four (49.4%) participants had knowledge of stroke risk factors. Only educational level was significantly associated with knowledge and participants with tertiary educational qualification were about 48 times (odds ratio = 48.5; CI = 7.6–309.8;P<0.0001) more likely to be knowledgeable than those with no education.Conclusion. Less than half of the participants had knowledge of stroke risk factors. Participants with tertiary education were significantly more knowledgeable than those with lower educational qualifications. Effective means of educating stroke survivors on stroke risk factors should be identified and adopted.

Asrigdara is a disease produced by Dosha Prakopa (vitiation of Dosha) along with Rakta Dushti (vitiation of blood components) primarily in Artavaha Srotas characterised by excessive excretion of menstrual blood where the increased Rakta mix with Raja (menstrual blood) thus, the quantity of Raja increases. It refers to all types of Abnormal Uterine Bleeding (AUB), in which Asrigdara is traditionally expressed as menorrhagia, metrorrhagia, polymenorrhea etc. Up to 1/3rd of women is experiencing abnormal uterine bleeding most commonly in menarche and menopause. Still, the cure of Asrigdara is facing difficulty, which shows that the understanding of Asrigdara is still incomplete, and this motivates to determine further, the other risk factors or other pathology involved in asrigdara. Objective: This calls for an evaluation of the possible Shonitha Dushti Nidana in Asrigdara to identify more risk factors. Methods: In this cross-sectional observational study, 36 subjects diagnosed with Asrigdara were selected. The probable incidence of Nidana (causes), in patients, were assessed through a questionnaire de- veloped for the study. The recorded data were analysed with descriptive statistics. Results: Aharaja Nidanas of Asrigdara acts as Viprakrushta Hetu (remote cause) causes Dhatu Pradooshana (vitiation of tissues) in the body. The Nidana Viruddha Ahara causes Rakta Dushti directly. The Manasika Nidanas such as Krodha (anger) is found to act as Vyanjaka Hetu (weak cause) in the manifestation of Asrigdara. Conclusion: Bahya Hetu (externalfactors) triggers Dosha Kopa or causes Dhatu Pradooshana. In Asrigdara patients, Pitta Pradhana Tridosha and Rakta were vitiated to initiate the disease manifestation. Keywords: Asrigdara, Rakta, Abnormal uterine bleeding, Raja.
