Child malnutrition in Tigray, northern Ethiopia.
OBJECTIVE Estimate levels of and identify factors contributing to child malnutrition in Tigray, Northern Ethiopia. DESIGN Cross-sectional survey. SETTING Rural communities from four zones of Tigray. SUBJECTS Three hundred and eighteen under five children representing 587 randomly selected households were included. RESULTS Among the children surveyed, 46.9%, 33.0% and 11.6% were stunted,...
متن کاملStraightforward inversion of vertical electrical sounding data
A straightforward inversion scheme (SIS) has been developed to interpret vertical electrical sounding data. This scheme does not require quasi-linearization of the inverse resistivity problem and thereby dispenses with the iterative process and the necessity of guessing the number of layers and their resistivities and thicknesses. The entire solution domain is divided into uniform thickness lay...
متن کاملLow birth weight and macrosomia in Tigray, Northern Ethiopia: who are the mothers at risk?
BACKGROUND Infant birth weight, which is classified into low birth weight, normal birth weight and macrosomia, is associated with short and long-term health consequences, such as neonatal mortality and chronic disease in life. Macrosomia and low birth weight are double burden problems in developing counties, such as Ethiopia, but the paucity of evidence has made it difficult to assess the exten...
متن کاملSubsurface structural characterization of the Chooman Dam site using geoelectric method
A recent evaluation of Chooman Dam highlighted the potential for dam failure due to either seepage or an earthquake on nearby faults. Unfortunately, this dam suffers from infiltration or leakage problems related mainly to different geological and tectonic factors. In response to these concerns, electrical resistivity surveys employing vertical electric sounding (VES) method were carried out at ...
متن کاملconstruction and validation of translation metacognitive strategy questionnaire and its application to translation quality
like any other learning activity, translation is a problem solving activity which involves executing parallel cognitive processes. the ability to think about these higher processes, plan, organize, monitor and evaluate the most influential executive cognitive processes is what flavell (1975) called “metacognition” which encompasses raising awareness of mental processes as well as using effectiv...
