For patients enrolled in the Coronary Artery Surgery Study (CASS), surgery was recommended for 46.5 per cent of Blacks and 59.4 Whites, despite similar clinical angiographic characteristics. Of those recommended, 80.5 90.4 Whites had bypass surgery. These differences were most apparent Black laborers. Overall, only 38.0 coronary artery surgery, whereas 58.4 received

Between 1990 and 2010, maternal mortality decreased globally by nearly 50%, from 543 000 deaths per year to 287 000,1WHOUNICEFUNFPAthe World BankTrends in 2010.

Abstract It is suggested that environmental or geographical factors (e.g. population density, climate and disease environment) play an important role in determining infant child survival above beyond played by individual household level factors. Only recently, however, have relevant spatial data become available demographic survey systematically recorded location of surveyed households, has the technology to integrate these accessible. This study estimates risk death ten West African...

In this paper we examine the relationship between risk factors and angiographically determined coronary artery disease for blacks whites enrolled in Coronary Artery Surgery Study (CASS). Analysis of data from CASS registry indicated that had a higher incidence hypertension current cigarette smoking than did chest pain was major reason both underwent angiography suspected or proven disease. The also showed that, despite high levels pain, minimal absent results study raise several questions....

The persistence of preventable maternal and newborn deaths highlights the importance quality care as an essential element in coverage interventions. Moving beyond conventional measurement crude coverage, we estimated effective facility delivery by adjusting for preparedness to provide services Bangladesh, Haiti, Malawi, Nepal, Senegal, Tanzania.

Anemia is a significant public health problem in many low- and middle-income countries (LMICs), with young children being especially vulnerable. Iron deficiency leading cause of anemia prior studies have shown associations between low iron status/iron poor child development outcomes. In LMICs, 43% under the age five years are at risk not meeting their developmental potential. However, few examined status early childhood (ECD) large population-based surveys. We severe or moderate ECD domains...

Importance The global success of the child survival agenda depends on how rapidly mortality at early ages after birth declines in India, and changes need to be monitored evaluate status. Objective To understand disaggregated patterns decrease early-life across states union territories (UTs) India. Design, Setting, Participants Repeated cross-sectional data from 5 rounds National Family Health Survey conducted 1992-1993, 1998-1999, 2005-2006, 2015-2016, 2019-2021 were used a representative...

<h3>ABSTRACT</h3> <h3>Background:</h3> The Kabeho Mwana project (2006–2011) supported the Rwanda Ministry of Health (MOH) in scaling up integrated community case management (iCCM) childhood illness 6 Rwanda9s 30 districts. trained and equipped health workers (CHWs) according to national guidelines.

<h3>ABSTRACT</h3> <h3>Objective:</h3> Early breastfeeding has numerous benefits for both the mother and her baby. Previous research typically analyzes initiation in binary terms (within first hour or day). Although delays are associated with cesarean delivery skin-to-skin contact may facilitate early breastfeeding, a more nuanced understanding of these relationships is needed. <h3>Methods:</h3> With data from 31 countries that had Demographic Health Survey since 2015, we described among...

Importance Despite a global decline in the mortality rate of children younger than 5 years (the under-5 rate), neonatal deaths continue to present substantial challenge. The etiology behind varies between early and late periods as well at later ages. Objective To decompose 47 low- middle-income countries into 8 age intervals, providing comprehensive understanding varying vulnerability across groups. Design, Setting, Participants This cross-sectional study used nationally representative data...

Introduction In India, most child deaths now occur within the first 28 days of birth. Trends in socioeconomic disparities death during these early and late neonatal stages over past few decades have been understudied. This paper elucidates trends mortality by household wealth maternal education. We also examined for post mortality, thereby examining risk status from birth until 59 months. Methods Using data five rounds India’s National Family Health Survey, we how neonatal, rates changed...

<h3>ABSTRACT</h3> <h3>Background:</h3> Developing effective context-specific strategies to ensure that a high proportion of children receive timely and appropriate care requires knowing the source from which is sought. Although Demographic Health Surveys (DHS) Multiple Indicator Cluster (MICS) collect such data in disaggregated form, they are not made available standard DHS MICS reports. <h3>Methods:</h3> Secondary analysis was done on 42 surveys conducted since 2005 for seeking acute...
