Thrombocytopenia (TCP) is the second most common hematological change during pregnancy and considered as a major source of maternal neonatal morbidity mortality. Despite its effects to mortality, it frequently ignored or disregarded, particularly in resource-limited nations. Thus, purpose this study was determine prevalence thrombocytopenia associated factors among pregnant women attending antenatal care at Hiwot Fana Comprehensive Specialized University Hospital, Eastern Ethiopia from June...
Childhood anemia is a significant global public health problem. It influences the physical and cognitive development, as well immunity of affected children. This in turn leads to poor academic performance, low working potential, increased morbidity mortality. There limited facility-based data on magnitude predictors among under-five study aimed determine prevalence associated factors children attending Hospitals Harari Regional State, eastern Ethiopia. Institution-based cross-sectional was...
Background Nasopharyngeal swab (NPS) remains the recommended sample type for Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2) diagnosis. However, collection procedure causes discomfort and irritation to patients, lowering quality of exposing healthcare workers risk. Furthermore, there is also a shortage flocked swabs personnel protective equipment in low-income settings. Therefore, this necessitates an alternative diagnostic specimen. The purpose study was evaluate performance...
Background Staphylococcus aureus nasal carriage has been linked to higher rates of infection and morbidity. People with Methicillin-resistant can be a potential source for others. University students living together in crowded conditions increase their risk acquiring infections. The prevalence S. , particularly carriage, Ethiopian university is sparse. Objective This study aimed determine the rate, associated factors, antimicrobial susceptibility patterns methicillin-resistant among...
Background Coronavirus-19 disease is more severe in patients on antiretroviral therapy (ART). Low-income countries, such as those Sub-Saharan Africa, are particularly vulnerable to the virus’ spread. However, there little information (ART) use Ethiopia during pandemic, study area. Therefore, this aimed assess level of treatment adherence and associated factors COVID-19 pandemic era public hospitals Jigjiga City, Somalia, Eastern Ethiopia. Methods An institution-based cross-sectional was...
Cervical cancer, the second leading cancer in Ethiopia women, is six times higher among women infected with Human Immune Virus 1-infected women. Its screening provides protective advantages, and linked to a decrease incidence of invasive cervical mortality. Although has great advantages for early treatment prevention further complications, uptake low developing countries. Women Living Immunodeficiency (WLHIV) not well known Eastern Ethiopia. Thus, we aimed assess its associated factors WLHIV...
Urinary tract infection (UTI) is a highly prevalent that can affect individuals of all ages, posing significant risk to global health in terms both morbidity and mortality. The emergence multidrug-resistant bacteria adds the complexity this public issue. There limited data on current study area. Therefore, aimed determine bacterial profiles, antibiotic susceptibility patterns, associated factors UTIs among symptomatic university students at Haramaya University, Eastern Ethiopia from May 10...
Medical and health science students are among the demographics most at risk from Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA), which is a serious hazard to public health. The main reservoir for MRSA nasal cavity, colonization of this area can raise infection transmission in healthcare settings. This study aimed assess carriage rate clinically affiliated Haramaya University, College Health Medicine Sciences, Ethiopia, July August 2022. An institution-based cross-sectional 250...
