Abstract In developing countries, one-quarter of young women have suffered from anemia. However, the available studies in Ethiopia been usually used traditional stastical methods. Therefore, this study aimed to employ multiple machine learning algorithms identify most effective model for prediction anemia among youth girls Ethiopia. A total 5642 weighted samples 2016 Ethiopian Demographic and Health Survey dataset were utilized. The data underwent preprocessing, with 80% observations...
Abstract Background Neonatal jaundice is a significant contributor to illness and death in newborns, leading frequent admissions neonatal intensive care units. To better understand this issue, study was conducted identify the factors contributing among newborns admitted Dessie Woldia comprehensive specialized hospitals northeast Ethiopia. Methods The took place from April 1 May 30, 2022, using unmatched case-control design. A total of 320 neonates paired with their mothers were involved,...
Background Stunting is a vital indicator of chronic undernutrition that reveals failure to reach linear growth. Investigating growth and nutrition status during adolescence, in addition infancy childhood very crucial. However, the available studies Ethiopia have been usually focused early they used traditional stastical methods. Therefore, this study aimed employ multiple machine learning algorithms identify most effective model for prediction stunting among adolescent girls Ethiopia....
A justified cesarean delivery plays a major role in reducing maternal and neonatal death Ethiopia. However, inequalities exist access to within the country. Therefore, this study aimed assess geographic variations predictors of hotspots Ethiopia using geographically weighted regression analysis. For study, data from 2019 Ethiopian Mini Demographic Health Survey were utilized. Moran's I Getis-OrdGi* statistics used geographical disparities occurrence deliveries. Subsequently, spatial was...
Objective. This study aimed to determine the prevalence and risk factors for lower back pain (LBP) among Bajaj drivers in Gondar City, northwestern Ethiopia. Methods. A community-based cross-sectional was conducted City. The collected data were entered into Epi Info version 7.2 analyzed with SPSS 20. adjusted odds ratios (AORs) p < 0.05 at 95% confidence interval (CI) reported variables considered be significant factors. Results. of LBP 49.2% (44.5–54.7%). Driver's age above 30 years (AOR...
Schistosomiasis is a parasitic disease that causes coagulation disorders and biochemical abnormalities. This due to liver failure, platelet destruction, disruption of blood flow, endothelial function by the schistosomes. However, there no adequate data on profiles count patients infected with Schistosoma mansoni in Dembiya Selected Health Institutions. Hence, aim this study was assess effect infection selected count. An institutional-based comparative cross-sectional conducted from March...
Despite significant efforts, undernutrition remains a critical public health issue, particularly in developing countries like Ethiopia. Anthropometric failure, which indicates inadequate child growth and development, has severe consequences. Analyzing the spatial distribution determinants of anthropometric failure is crucial for evaluating improving nutritional programs. Understanding these patterns can enhance targeted resource allocation, thereby accelerating progress toward optimal...
Background Over the past three decades, Ethiopia has witnessed a dynamic shift in burden of HIV/AIDS, public health crisis that profoundly impacted communities nationwide. While significant strides have been made combating disease, evolving trends incidence, mortality, and disability reveal complexity progress. The insights drawn from Global Burden Disease Study (1990–2021) offer comprehensive perspective on successes ongoing challenges. Understanding these is critical for refining...
Background . Each year, immunization averts an estimated 2–3 million deaths from diphtheria, tetanus, pertussis, and measles. In 2011, nearly 107 infants (83%) worldwide received at least 3 doses of DTP vaccine; however, approximately 22.4 failed to receive doses, this causes large numbers children susceptible vaccine-preventable diseases death. Nearly 8.4 1 dose. The aim was assess coverage, opportunity, challenges EPI among age 12–23 months in Woldia town, Amhara region, Northeast...
Health professionals need a strong prediction system to reach appropriate disease diagnosis, particularly for under-five child with health problems like anemia. Diagnosis and treatment delay can potentially lead devastating complications resulting in childhood mortality. However, the application of machine learning techniques using large data set provides scientifically sounded information solve such palpable critical health-related problems. Therefore, this study aimed determine predictors...
Abstract Background Adverse birth outcomes, including preterm birth, low weight, and stillbirth, remain a major global health challenge, particularly in developing regions. Understanding the possible risk factors is crucial for designing effective interventions outcomes. Accordingly, this study aimed to develop predictive model adverse outcomes among childbearing women Sub-Saharan Africa using advanced machine learning techniques. Additionally, employ novel data science interpretability...
The implementation of Electronic Health Record (EHR) systems is a critical challenge, particularly in low-income countries, where behavioral intention plays crucial role. To address this issue, we conducted study to extend and apply the Unified Theory Acceptance Use Technology 3 (UTAUT3) model predicting health professionals' use EHR systems. A quantitative research approach was employed among 423 professionals Southwest Ethiopia. We assessed validity proposed through measurement structural...
