Most available CMD screening tools most low- and middle-income countries do not screen for more than health problem. Having a tool that is free to use, short assessment time, used appealing resource-constrained setting.

Previous reviews have identified 44 risk factors for poor early child development (ECD) in low- and middle-income countries. Further understanding of their relative influence pathways is needed to inform the design interventions targeting ECD.We conducted path analyses associated with 18-month language motor four prospective cohorts children who participated trials as part International Lipid-Based Nutrient Supplements (iLiNS) Project Ghana (n = 1,023), Malawi 675 1,385), Burkina Faso...
The objective of the study was to investigate association between maternal common mental disorder (CMD) and infant growth in rural Malawi. A cross-sectional conducted at a district hospital child health clinic. Participants were consecutive infants due for measles vaccination, their mothers. Mean weight-for-age length-for-age z-scores compared mothers with without CMD as measured using self-reporting questionnaire (SRQ). Of 519 eligible infants/mothers, 501 included analysis. Median age 9.9...

This study examines whether financial conflict arises because of difficulties, marital problems, or both. Using a recent nationally representative sample over 1500 married couples, this finds that economic pressure, communication issues, and deeper "hidden" issues within marriage are all associated with conflict. Specifically, pressure is positively When spouses report satisfying communication, respect, commitment, fairness have equal levels power, they lower These results suggest complex...
Mental health problems represent a major public challenge. Automated analysis of text related to mental is aimed help medical decision-making, policies and improve care. Such may involve classification. Traditionally, automated classification has been performed mainly using machine learning methods involving costly feature engineering. Recently, the performance those dramatically improved by neural methods. However, Convolutional networks (CNNs) have explored. In this paper, we apply...

Stunting prevalence is an indicator of a country's progress towards United Nations' Sustainable Development Goal 2, which to end hunger and achieve improved nutrition. Accelerating reducing stunting requires deeper understanding the factors that contribute linear growth faltering. We conducted path analyses associated with 18-month length-for-age z-score (LAZ) in four prospective cohorts children who participated trials as part International Lipid-Based Nutrient Supplements Project Ghana...
