Abstract Background Chlorine dioxide has been promoted as an alternative for the prevention and treatment of COVID-19, especially in Peru, despite the lack of evidence to support its efficacy. This study aimed to evaluate the factors associated with chlorine dioxide consumption in the Peruvian population. Methods Analytical cross-sectional study. An adult Peruvian population was evaluated where chlorine dioxide consumption was divided into two groups according to the purpose of use: as prevention (individuals without COVID-19 history) and as treatment (individuals with COVID-19 history). The associated factors in each group were evaluated using Poisson regressions with the bootstrapping resampling method. Results Of 3610 participants included, 3213 reported no history of COVID-19, and 397 had been infected. The prevalence of chlorine dioxide consumption to prevent or treat COVID-19 was 8 and 16%, respectively. Factors either positively or negatively associated with chlorine dioxide consumption for prevention were male sex (aPR: 1.36; 95% CI: 1.09–1.71), being an adult or older adult (aPR: 0.54; 95% CI: 0.35–0.82), having a health sciences student within the family unit (aPR: 1.38; 95% CI: 1.02–1.87), using medical information as the main source of information of COVID-19 (aPR: 0.57; 95% CI: 0.40–0.80), having comorbidities for COVID-19 (aPR: 1.36; 95% CI: 1.01–1.82), considering COVID-19 dangerous and deadly (aPR: 0.57; 95% CI: 0.45–0.74), using medications (aPR: 1.59; 95% CI: 1.25–2.06) and plants to prevent COVID-19 (aPR: 1.69; 95% CI: 1.21–2.36), considering chlorine dioxide ineffective (aPR: 0.18; 95% CI: 0.18–0.24), and being uninformed of its efficacy (aPR: 0.21; 95% CI: 0.16–0.28). In addition, factors associated with chlorine dioxide consumption for treatment were considering COVID-19 dangerous and deadly (aPR: 0.56; 95% CI: 0.33–0.96), considering chlorine dioxide ineffective (aPR: 0.22; 95% CI: 0.12–0.42), and being uninformed of its efficacy (aPR: 0.15; 95% CI: 0.07–0.32). Conclusions The prevalence of chlorine dioxide consumption to treat COVID-19 was higher than prevent. It is important to apply information strategies, prioritizing population groups with certain characteristics that are associated with a higher consumption pattern.

Objetivo: Analizar la funcionalidad familiar, y factores relacionados en un grupo de adolescentes embarazadas que asisten a control prenatal en los centros de atención de ASSBASALUD ESE (Manizales, Colombia). Materiales y métodos:Estudiode corte transversal con una población de 190 adolescentes embarazadas entre los 12 y 21 años, el instrumento utilizado fue una encuesta escrita, anónima, que interrogaba sobre variables sociodemográficas, relación con sus padres, tipo de educación recibida, situaciones conflictivas en la familia y funcionalidad familiar. Resultados: Promedio de edad de 18 años, el 72,1% de la población presentó disfuncionalidad familiar de leve a severa, 46,9% tenían una relación con el padre entre ninguna y regular, 25,3% con la madre, 38,9% presentaban antecedentes de violencia familiar, 25,8% depresión, 23,2% de consumo de alcohol, 36,3% pensaban que no iban a quedar embarazadas, 26,8% deseaban tener hijos, la buena funcionalidad familiar tuvo relación significativa con no empleo de métodos anticonceptivos (p=0,000), alto número de embarazos (p=0,025), alto número de abortos (p=0,007) entre otras. Conclusiones: La población de adolescentes gestantes estudiada tiene características similares a las poblaciones de otras ciudades de Colombia, y otros países. Se demuestra que, como prácticamente en todos los ámbitos del ser humano, en este también la familia es decisiva y determinante en la presencia de embarazo precoz en estas adolescentes. Objective: To examine family functioning and related factors in a group of pregnantadolescents attending prenatal-control care in ASSBASALUD ESE centers (Manizales,Colombia). Materials and Methods: Cross-sectional study with a population of 190pregnant adolescents between 12 and 21 years, the instrument used was a writtensurvey, anonymously, which questioned about sociodemographic variables, relationshipwith parents, type of education, conflict situations in the family and family functioning.Results: Average age 18 years, 72.1% of the population had family dysfunction frommild to severe, 46.9% had none or a moderate relationship with the father and 25.3%with the mother, 38, 9% had a history of family violence, depression 25.8%, 23.2%for alcohol, 36.3% thought they would not get pregnant, 26.8% wanted children. Agood family functioning was significantly related with no presence of family violence(p=0,000), with no pregnancies < 17 years (p=0,020), no use of contraceptive methods(p = 0.000), a high number of pregnancies (p=0,025), no induced abortions (p=0,007),discussions about pregnancies and sexuality with parents (p=0,000). Conclusions: Thestudied population of pregnant teenagers has characteristics similar to the populationsof other cities of Colombia, and other countries. It is demonstrated that, as practicallyin all areas of the human being, in this the family is also crucial and decisive in thepresence of early pregnancy in these adolescents.

This cross sectional study carried out at a selected slum in Dhaka city, Bangladesh. The objective of the study was to examine the reasons of dropout of EPI vaccination among the children of slum areas. Mothers having children 11-23 months with history of EPI dropout were included in the study. A total of 128 mothers were interviewed. Out of 128 respondents 32.8% were in the age of 26-30 yrs; 96.9% were married, 65.7% were housewife, 62.5% had 4-6 members in the family, 50.78% had primary education & rest 10.15% had secondary level education. Approximately 53.1% of the husbands of the respondents were day laborers, and 57.8% of the family had a monthly income in range of Tk.  2001-3000. Out of 128 dropout children, 31.2% were in the age group 11-13 moths and 28.2% were in the age group 20 months and above. During the interview, respondents were able to show the EPI Card of their children. The main reasons for dropping out were a lack of awareness to complete the vaccination schedule (25%), and illness of child (21.9%). The other reasons were fear of reaction (9.4%) and business of the mother (9.4%). There is a need to intensify efforts to increase access for immunization, strengthen surveillance and promote health education to reduce the dropouts in slum areas.South East Asia J Public Health | Jan-June 2012 | Vol 2 Issue 1 | 64-67 DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.3329/seajph.v2i1.15268

A prospective, analytical and cross-sectional study to find out the role of contact with tuberculous patientsduring the process of development of Tuberculous Cervical Lymphadenitis was currently carried out in theDepartment of ENT- Head & Neck Surgery of Tribhuvan University Teaching Hospital Kathmandu, Nepal.Altogether 103 cases of histopathologically confirmed cases of Tuberculous Cervical Lymphadenitis of morethan six weeks of duration were included in the study during the period of one year from March, 2000 toFebruary, 2001.History of contact with tuberculous patients in the past during the development of the disease process wasfound to be positive in 19(18.4%) of the 103 cases. In rest of the 84 cases history of contact with tuberculouspatients was found to be negative (81.6%).The result of this study so far indicates that there is a minimal role of contact with tuberculous patients forthe development of tuberculous cervical lymphadenitis. Although tuberculosis is known as a chroniccommunicable disease, in our study majority cases of Tuberculous Cervical Lymphadenitis did not give anyhistory of contact with tuberculous patients in the past.Key Words: Tuberculous cervical lymphadenitis, tuberculous patients, communicable disease.

Aims: To determine the prevalence of urinary incontinence (UI); risk factors; impact on quality of life and symptom specific health seeking behaviour. Methods: A cross-sectional study of 395 women attending gynaecological clinic of the Lagos State University Teaching Hospital. UI was defined as the complaint of any involuntary leakage of urine in the previous six months. Socio-demographic characteristics, obstetrics, gynaecological, medical and surgical risk factors, impact on daily activities and treatment history were assessed. Univariate, bivariate and multivariable analyses were performed. Results: Participants age ranged from 25-67 years with a mean of 38.81 ± 10.1. Prevalence of UI was 32.9%.  Urge UI occurred in 18.0% of all respondents while the prevalence of stress and mixed incontinence was 7.3% and 7.6% respectively. Independent risk factors for urinary incontinence were age (OR= 0.49, 95%;CI = 0.26-0.92), higher body mass index (OR = 1.92; 95% CI =1.53-3.00) and history of constipation(OR = 2.11; 95% CI =1.30 - 3.43). About47%of those with UI admitted to having negative feelings such as despair, anxiety and depression while 45% had a cumulative moderate to severe affectation of their quality of life in all domains. Despite these, only 27.7% sought help. Conclusions: Despite thesubstantial impact of UI on the quality of life, majority do not seek help. Addressing modifiable risks factors, improving treatment seeking behaviour by correction of misconceptions and elimination of stigma will go a long way in reducing the prevalence of UI.

Abstract Background: Chlorine dioxide has been promoted as an alternative for the prevention and treatment of COVID-19 especially in Peru, despite the lack of evidence to support its efficacy. We aimed to evaluate the factors associated with chlorine dioxide consumption in the Peruvian population. Methods: Analytical cross-sectional study. An adult Peruvian population was evaluated where chlorine dioxide consumption was divided into two groups according to the purpose of use: as prevention (individuals without COVID-19 history) and as treatment (individuals with COVID-19 history). The associated factors in each group were evaluated using Poisson regressions with the bootstrapping resampling method. Results: Of 3610 participants included, 3213 reported no history of COVID-19, and 397 had been infected. The prevalence of chlorine dioxide consumption to prevent or treat COVID-19 was 8 and 16%, respectively. Factors associated with chlorine dioxide consumption for both prevention and treatment were considering COVID-19 dangerous and lethal and considering chlorine dioxide ineffective or being uninformed of its efficacy. In addition, factors associated with the use of chlorine dioxide only as a preventive were the male sex, being an adult and older adult, having a health sciences student within the family unit, using medical information as the main source of information of COVID-19, having some comorbidity, and using medications and plants for prevention of COVID-19. Conclusions: The prevalence of chlorine dioxide consumption among the Peruvian population evaluated was high so it is important to apply information strategies, prioritizing population groups with certain characteristics that are associated with a higher consumption pattern.

Aim: To determine association of location of cyst with the family history and mutated gene among patients of myelomeningocele. Methodology: This cross sectional study consists of fifty diagnosed cases of myelomeningocele and ten healthy individuals taken as controls. The cases were collected from Jinnah Postgraduate Medical Center (JPMC) for a period of six months. The research was conducted in Dow Diagnostic and Research Laboratory (DDRL) (DUHS). Majority of the patients included in the study were neonates. Patients were examined for the presence and site of the cyst. Family history of the patients was also recorded. After taken informed consent from the patient’s attendants, blood was drawn by a trained phlebotomist. DNA was extracted from whole blood followed by PCR amplification of VANGL1 gene. Results: We found that among fifty individuals five patients showed mutation in VANGL1 gene. Mutation was absent entirely from the controls. The cyst was mostly (92%) present in the lumbar region. Only 2% patients showed positive family history. The association between site of the cyst and family history was statistically significant. Conclusion: It is concluded that all mutation of VANGL1 gene was present at lumbar region.There was a strong relation between location of cyst and family history. Keywords: Myelomeningocele, cyst, VANGL1 gene, PCR, mutation.
