218 Mothers who attended the Well Baby Clinic were interviewed to assess their understanding and interpretation of the growth chart. Results were disappointing and recommendations are made.

The CCC-r chart is developed based on cumulative count of a conforming (CCC) control chart that considers the cumulative number of items inspected until observing r nonconforming ones. Typically, the samples obtained from the process are analyzed through 100% inspection to exploit the CCC-r chart. However, considering the inspection cost and time would limit its implementation. In this paper, w...

BACKGROUND Immunization and appropriate health-seeking behavior are effective strategies to reduce child deaths. OBJECTIVES To compare maternal knowledge about immunization, use of growth chart and childhood health-seeking behavior in rural and urban areas. METHODS A cross-sectional comparative study done in Lagos, Nigeria. Questionnaire survey and focus group discussions were done. 300 res...

Discrete kinetic equations describing binary processes of agglomeration and fragmentation are considered using formal equivalence between the geodesic some affinely connected space A associated with equation called affine connection. The geometric properties treated locally in coordinate chart (x;U). peculiarity is that coordinates (x) selected local chart, Christoffel symbols defining connecti...

In high quality industrial processes, the control chart is design based on cumulative count of conforming (CCC) items is very useful. In this paper, the performance of CCC-r chart with variable sampling intervals (CCC-rVSI chart) in the presence ofinspectionerrors isinvestigated. The efficiency of CCC-rVSI chart is compared with CCC-r chart with fixed sampling interval (CC...
