Severe Acute Malnutrition- Low but Hurting Indian Children?_Crimson Publisherscrimsonpublisherscojrr
The childhood undernutrition is an important public health and development challenge in developing countries including India. Despite multiple National Nutrition Programs implemented over last 50 years and supplementary feeding activity as a nutrition improving activity in Integrated Child Development Scheme since 1975, it is matter of concern that we still run nutrition rehabilitation centers for hospitalizing and managing Severe Acute Malnutrition (SAM) cases coming from poor-socio-economic families even in 2021. COVID-19 pandemic since early 2020 has further exacerbated the situation with shrinking food diversity and low intake combined with episodes of missing supplementary feeding at times. Over a million Anganwadi centres have identified nearly a million ‘severely acute malnourished’ children from six months to six years across the country as of November 2020. The recently published results of Phase I of the National Family Health Survey-5 have reported an increase in the incidence of SAM over the last 10 years. Nutrition Rehabilitation Centres (NRCs) launched in 2014 as National Plan of Action for Children were meant to treat SAM cases at health facilities. However, there are studies that suggest that NRCs have not been highly effective. In many NRCs, SAM cases are being discharged early because either the caregivers could not stay for a requisite duration, or the centre could not keep the baby for requisite period, due to lack of oversight.
This document provides a summary of the under five children's health situation in Bangladesh. It discusses the leading causes of under five mortality, including preterm birth, pneumonia, and diarrhea.

Status of Child Health in Bangladesh.pptx 2024Motahar Alam
As of my last update in January 2022, the status of child health in Bangladesh has seen significant improvements over the years, yet challenges persist. Here's a detailed description:
Bangladesh has made remarkable strides in improving child health outcomes over the past few decades. Efforts by the government, alongside various national and international organizations, have led to notable advancements in reducing child mortality rates, enhancing access to healthcare services, and improving overall well-being.
One of the most significant achievements in recent years has been the substantial decline in child mortality rates. The implementation of various healthcare initiatives, such as expanded vaccination programs, improved maternal and child healthcare services, and community-based interventions, has played a crucial role in reducing mortality rates among infants and children under five years of age.
Efforts to combat malnutrition and improve nutrition outcomes for children have also been prioritized. Programs focusing on promoting exclusive breastfeeding, providing nutritional supplements, and addressing micronutrient deficiencies have contributed to better nutrition and overall health outcomes among children.
However, despite these advancements, challenges persist in ensuring universal access to quality healthcare services, particularly in rural and remote areas. Limited access to healthcare facilities, inadequate infrastructure, and socio-economic disparities continue to impact the health and well-being of children, especially those from marginalized communities.
Childhood diseases such as pneumonia, diarrhea, and malaria remain prevalent in Bangladesh, posing significant health risks to children, particularly those living in impoverished conditions. Additionally, emerging health threats such as the COVID-19 pandemic have further strained healthcare systems and highlighted the need for resilient and adaptable healthcare infrastructure to address public health emergencies effectively.
In response to these challenges, ongoing efforts are underway to strengthen healthcare systems, improve healthcare delivery mechanisms, and enhance access to essential services for children across the country. Collaborative initiatives involving government agencies, non-governmental organizations, healthcare professionals, and community stakeholders are crucial for sustaining progress and addressing the remaining gaps in child health.
Moving forward, continued investment in healthcare infrastructure, capacity building, and innovative solutions will be essential to further improve the status of child health in Bangladesh. By prioritizing the well-being of children and ensuring equitable access to healthcare services, Bangladesh can continue its journey towards achieving better health outcomes for its youngest citizens.
It has been thirteen years since HAQ fi rst started questioning the State’s responsibilities and promises towards children through budget analysis. Over these years, we have moved from the Union to the states.

Worlds largest and unique early childhood development programme Introduced on 2nd October 1975 has so many positive outcomes till date but yet to achieve its objectives....
Bangladesh has made progress in reducing maternal and child mortality. Maternal mortality declined 40% in the last 9 years to 194 per 100,000 live births due to fertility reduction and increased facility usage for complications. Under-5 mortality declined from 133 to 65 deaths per 1,000 live births, driven by reductions in child and post-neonatal mortality, though neonatal mortality remains high. World Vision Bangladesh works to improve child nutrition, health care, and prevent sickness through education. It also ensures healthy pregnancies and deliveries through awareness, birth attendant training, and antenatal/postnatal care. Key results include over 500,000 people trained in health topics and over 50,000 children fully immunized.
The document discusses the revised training package for the Baby Friendly Hospital Initiative (BFHI). Some key points:
- The BFHI was launched in 1991 to promote breastfeeding. Over 15,000 facilities in 134 countries have achieved Baby-Friendly status.
- However, progress in designating new hospitals has slowed since 1996. On average, less than seven hospitals per country are designated each year.
- WHO and UNICEF have developed a revised 20-hour training course package to revitalize the BFHI both quantitatively and qualitatively.
- The package includes updates to certain steps and new/optional criteria on areas like HIV/AIDS, labor/childbirth care, and compliance with
Mata Yasoda - Mobile Application for Anganwadi Centers (ICDS)Nagarajan M
Mata Yashoda project aims to decrease malnutrition among 6 months to 6 years children of Sabarkantha district. Per 1000 population one Anganwadi Cenre (AWC) is established to nutrition and pre-school education to children. Study says in 50% of infant deaths malnutrition is indirect cause of death. One Anganwadi Worker (AWW) and one Tedaghar (cook) are posted to deliver services. In AWC apart from nutrition services and pre-school services AWW has to participate in various other activities like Meeting, Sabha, Krishi Rath and has to report all the services given by her.
Also monthly weight monitoring is done for each child and plotted on graph to track child’s nutritional status. She has to fill 11 (eleven) registers for services given by her. So AWW has to give most of time in reporting and other activates. So quality of service given by AWW has suffered. Mata Yashoda project has converged all these register in single mobile application. So AWW has to fill data once and reports are automatically generated by this software. So less time is consumed and AWW gets extra time for children.
Monitoring from taluka and district level has become very easy with single online real time Dashboard. Time spent on actual delivery of services is reduced due to cumbersome register maintenance. More than 11 registers are to be maintained by the AWW. This task is automated leading to increased time and energy to carry out ICDS services. The administration is able to get real time information for monitoring.
The Polk County Health Department has begun scheduling H1N1 flu vaccinations for high-risk groups identified by the CDC. Vaccine supply is still limited but enough is available to begin vaccinating beyond school programs. The health department is focusing on high-risk groups without a healthcare provider. High-risk groups include people caring for infants, children and young adults, and adults with medical conditions putting them at higher risk for flu complications. A phone line has been set up for priority groups to schedule free vaccinations at nearby clinics.
This document discusses India's child health programs and interventions to reduce child and infant mortality. It provides data on the major causes of child, infant, and neonatal mortality in India. It then describes the various interventions under India's Reproductive, Maternal, Newborn, Child, Adolescent Health and Nutrition strategy to improve outcomes, including programs to promote institutional deliveries and postnatal care, newborn care initiatives, immunization programs, screening children for health conditions, and deworming programs. It concludes by mentioning some newer initiatives such as assured maternal and newborn healthcare services and an initiative to promote ORS and zinc use to reduce diarrheal deaths.

Public Health Administration
Describe the public health topic area that you selected and why you selected it.
Immunization is the process of ensuring that a person is resistant or immune to an infectious disease which is mainly through the administration of a vaccine. Vaccines are essential in stimulating the immune system in a person’s body in order to shield one against successive disease or infection. I choose immunization as the topic area since as much as we would want to look away from it, it is has a major influence in the general health of the nation. Immunization is not only essential in our state; Saudi Arabia but it is also plays significant roles in other states all over the world. According to the World Health Organization, immunization has been proven to be a tool that helps in eliminating and controlling infectious diseases that are life-threatening and is anticipated to prevent between two to three million deaths annually. This is among the reasons that the topic area is important to look at.
According to Kern County Public Health Services Department, immunization through the use of vaccines has transformed the modern world. Unlike fifty years back, widespread diseases and illnesses such as rubella, measles, polio, and others crippled and caused deaths of hundreds of thousands of patients, but currently these illnesses do not pose a threat to the community as a result of preventative vaccines use. Immunization requires attention as it is not limited to children but is also people belonging to all lifestyles and ages need to be immunized as well as people who come across young children. In Saudi Arabia, it has not been different, immunization has been important in eliminating the risk of infection of illnesses such as variola disease, smallpox and meningitis which in the past caused the death of millions of people. The situation is different now as a result of the use of vaccines which help in boosting people’s immune and saves people’s lives.
Compare and contrast (describe what is similar and what is different) the immunization programs in Kern County and Saudi Arabia.

Caffeine; Does it really work for weight loss!.pdfaditi agarwal
Caffeine is a stimulant found in coffee, tea, and other beverages that increases alertness. It can promote weight loss by increasing metabolism, promoting fat burning, and suppressing appetite. The amount of caffeine needed depends on a person's BMI, with 200-400 mg recommended daily for most adults. Black coffee is one of the most effective sources for weight loss when consumed before meals without added sugar or cream. The best time to drink coffee for weight loss is in the morning before breakfast.
A Detailed Guide to the Atkins Diet.pdfaditi agarwal
The document provides an in-depth overview of the Atkins diet, including its phases and guidelines. It was created by Dr. Robert Atkins and focuses on low-carb, high-protein eating. The diet works by reducing insulin levels and forcing the body to burn fat instead of carbs. It allows meat, eggs, cheese and most vegetables but restricts fruit, grains and sugars. While effective for short-term weight loss, it is too restrictive long-term and may lack nutrients. The document also discusses pros, cons and differences between Atkins and keto diets.

Immunization is not only essential in our state; Saudi Arabia but it is also plays significant roles in other states all over the world. According to the World Health Organization, immunization has been proven to be a tool that helps in eliminating and controlling infectious diseases that are life-threatening and is anticipated to prevent between two to three million deaths annually. This is among the reasons that the topic area is important to look at.
According to Kern County Public Health Services Department, immunization through the use of vaccines has transformed the modern world. Unlike fifty years back, widespread diseases and illnesses such as rubella, measles, polio, and others crippled and caused deaths of hundreds of thousands of patients, but currently these illnesses do not pose a threat to the community as a result of preventative vaccines use. Immunization requires attention as it is not limited to children but is also people belonging to all lifestyles and ages need to be immunized as well as people who come across young children. In Saudi Arabia, it has not been different, immunization has been important in eliminating the risk of infection of illnesses such as variola disease, smallpox and meningitis which in the past caused the death of millions of people. The situation is different now as a result of the use of vaccines which help in boosting people’s immune and saves people’s lives.
Compare and contrast (describe what is similar and what is different) the immunization programs in Kern County and Saudi Arabia.

Caffeine; Does it really work for weight loss!.pdfaditi agarwal
Caffeine is a stimulant found in coffee, tea, and other beverages that increases alertness. It can promote weight loss by increasing metabolism, promoting fat burning, and suppressing appetite. The amount of caffeine needed depends on a person's BMI, with 200-400 mg recommended daily for most adults. Black coffee is one of the most effective sources for weight loss when consumed before meals without added sugar or cream. The best time to drink coffee for weight loss is in the morning before breakfast.

El Puerto de Algeciras continúa un año más como el más eficiente del continente europeo y vuelve a situarse en el “top ten” mundial, según el informe The Container Port Performance Index 2023 (CPPI), elaborado por el Banco Mundial y la consultora S&P Global.
El informe CPPI utiliza dos enfoques metodológicos diferentes para calcular la clasificación del índice: uno administrativo o técnico y otro estadístico, basado en análisis factorial (FA). Según los autores, esta dualidad pretende asegurar una clasificación que refleje con precisión el rendimiento real del puerto, a la vez que sea estadísticamente sólida. En esta edición del informe CPPI 2023, se han empleado los mismos enfoques metodológicos y se ha aplicado un método de agregación de clasificaciones para combinar los resultados de ambos enfoques y obtener una clasificación agregada.
