Malnutrition is a malnourishment condition resulting from the imbalance of micro nutrient an macro nutrien. Parental diet can help create problems related to the nutritional status of toddlers. Giving the child a right opportunity to consume food does not assure the toddler to be free of his nutritional statis. That’s why researches are interested in studying the effectof a diet for twelfth-twenty fourth months old of child’snutritional status. The sample design of this study is taken for sixty nine respondents, data gathering on the foster diet variabel diet question naire and variable data nutritional status with anthropo metric mesures. The collected data was analyzed using cross table analysis. Cross table analysis showsthat there is a linkbetween the foster diet and thet welfth-twenty fourth months old of child’s nutritional status, and the diet of democratic food has the highest impact on the nutritional status of the toodler twelfth-twenty fourth months old of child’s nutritional status at the medical center of Pademawu, Pamekasan. The study found that there is a nurturing pattern of eating under the child’s twelfth-twenty fourth months old of child’s nutritional status by the most dominan foster pattern is the democratic upbringing in the workplace of the medical center of Pademawu, Pamekasan.

This paper provides a list of good practice in the conduct and reporting of survey research. Its purpose is to assist the trainee researcher to produce survey work to a high standard level. The research paper provides a scope of the methodology used showing the processes of data gathering tools & field procedures for each population of interest(citizens, residents, and tourists), data analysis, and some sample size issues. The research is not meant to provide a manual of how to conduct a survey, but rather to identify common difficulties and errors to be avoided by researchers if their work is to be efficient and sound.The paper has shown the approaches for Assessing Customer Satisfaction and the main outcome of this experience in judging whether the survey questions flow: logic, order, relevance, easily understood, adequate to be measured.Sampling plan used in this research suggested that the sample is a national probability sample drawn proportionate to the population by age and gender, and separately by the municipality. These groups are used as sampling parameters that have provided the number of sub-groups to be investigated. In this survey, there were two sources of under-coverage and over-coverage in the sample design. First, some residents live in labor gatherings. Second, there was the challenge of having to over-sample citizens in individual municipalities. Each of these issues examined and dealt with accordingly.

Background: Tuberculosis (TB) is a common communicable disease in Bangladesh. Treatment of TB sometimes depends on nutritional status of the patient. Both in developed and developing countries TB has been found to coexist with malnutrition among patients at the beginning of treatment. So it would be very important to evaluate the nutritional assessment of a patient before starting treatment. If malnutrition exists in a patient of TB than nutrition supplementation can play an important role in improving the disease condition to reduce further morbidity and mortality. Method:It was a descriptive study, conducted on eighty-seven adult TB participant attending at medicine department, Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujib Medical University (BSMMU), where nutritional status (Body-Mass Index or BMI) was measured by keeping records of patient’s height in meters and weight in kilogram. Result: A total 87 participants were included in this study where 45 (52 percent) were males and 42 (48 percent) were females. Most of the participants were healthy 56 percent (n=49) participants. However, under-nutrition was present in 36 percent (n=31) participants and over-nutrition were only 8 percent (n=7). Most of the participant takes more than three meals 54 percent (n=47) participants. However, three meals were taken by 45 percent (n=39) participants and two meals were taken only 1 percent (n=1). Conclusion: In this study almost 36% participants of tuberculosis were in under-nutrition. So Nutrition supplementation could be needed in improving the disease condition to reduce further morbidity and mortality. On the other hand large scale study should be needed for taking proper steps to know the overall situation of the country. Bangladesh J Medicine July 2019; 30(2) : 53-57

Index Estimation

A prospective study into the nutritional status of 114 patients with untreated primary squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck was undertaken to assess its possible prognostic value for survival. Nutritional status was evaluated by anthropometry, creatinine height index estimation, serum albumin and transferrin assays, and nitrogen balance studies. Weight change and other anthropometric indices found to be the most reliable nutritional parameters were averaged to derive a clinically useful, general nutritional status score. A nutritional deficit was found in 43 of the 114 patients (37.7%) and was associated with neoplasms of the upper gastrointestinal tract in more than 80% of the patients. Life table analysis showed a statistically very highly significant difference between the survival of the adequately nourished patients (57.5% at 2 years) and the survival of the undernourished patients (7.5% at 2 years) (χ2 = 36.08; P = .0). These results indicate that nutritional deficiency is an important adverse prognostic factor in head and neck cancer. Undernutrition probably exerts its effect, at least in part, by causing secondary immunologic dysfunction.

The Impact

Malaria is a leading cause of morbidity and mortality in Africa. Children are mostly exposed to this disease; numerous studies have investigated the relationship between child malnutrition and either malaria morbidity or infection. Few studies demonstrated the interaction between child malnutrition and specific anti-Plasmodium falciparum immune responses. The purpose of this study was to investigate the impact of nutritional status and iron on total anti-Plasmodium falciparum IgG levels in children living in the Gado-Badzéré refugee camp. We carried out a cross-sectional study during August–November 2017 in the Gado-Badzéré refugee camp in the East region of Cameroon. Children aged from 6 to 59 months with fever were recruited from the medical center. The data were recorded using a standardized data collection sheet and were analyzed using SPSS and WHO Anthro software. The total anti-Pf 3D7 total IgG level was determined using an ELISA technique while a colorimetric method was used to measure the total iron level. A total of 83 patients aged 6–59 months were enrolled in this study. The prevalence of malaria and malnutrition was 47% and 31%, respectively. Acute malnutrition was statistically less recurrent in noninfected children compared with that in the infected children. The infection tended to have significant influence on the level of anti-Plasmodium falciparum antibodies in children. In addition, nutritional status and serum iron levels had no significant influence on children’s anti-Pf IgG T levels. Malaria and malnutrition remain real public health problems in the Gado-badzéré refugee camp. Knowledge of the nutritional profile of the population would be of great benefit in setting up an appropriate health program. We therefore suggest that more standardized studies be conducted to highlight the effect of nutrition and micronutrients on immunological status.

Main Research

Purpose/Objectives: To determine if serum prealbumin (PAB) levels can be used by nurses to predict patients who may be at higher risk for postoperative complications after pancreatic surgeries. Design: A quantitative, retrospective study. Setting: One cancer center at an urban medical center in Detroit, Michigan. Sample: A convenience sample of 41 patients with resectable pancreatic neoplasms. Methods: Descriptive study with cross-sectional data using chart review to obtain preoperative PAB levels and perioperative data. Main Research Variables: Pancreatic leak, chyle leak, gastroparesis, sepsis, heart attack, length of hospital stay, and readmissions. Findings: There was a higher incidence of pancreatic leak reported after a distal pancreatectomy; however, this complication was not associated with a low PAB of ≤20 mg/dl. Patients with a diagnosis of adenocarcinoma or who underwent a pancreaticoduodenectomy experienced a longer hospital stay. Conclusions: Results did not reinforce the relationship between preoperative nutritional status and outcomes in pancreatic surgery. Implications for Nursing: Surgical oncology nurses should be aware of the importance of presurgical risk assessment and optimization. Tailored implementation of nutritional prehabilitation to improve patient outcomes after resection of pancreatic neoplasms should be studied more comprehensively.
