Received 19 November 2018 Revised 27 December 2018 Accepted 31 December 2018 Early online 31 January 2019 Print 31 January 2019 Infection control measures are recommended to prevent transmission of infection in hospitals. However, their implementation is dependent on the knowledge and attitudes of healthcare workers (HCW). This study describes health workers knowledge and practice compliance and attitude regarding infection control measures among health care workers. A cross-sectional study was undertaken among health care workers at A. J. Hospital and Research Center, Mangaluru. A total of 80 staff nurses were selected by purposive sampling from medical, surgical and orthopedic wards. Data was collected via a structured self-administered questionnaire assessing knowledge and practice compliance and attitude regarding infection control measures. There was a linear correlation between knowledge and attitude; and knowledge and practice scores. Overall, there was no correlation between attitude and practice scores of individuals.

Received 09 July 2018 Revised 01 October 2018 Accepted 20 October 2018 Early online 02 January 2019 Print 31 January 2019 Biliary tract cancers are among the sixth most commonly diagnosed alimentary tract cancers. The incidence of this disease is higher among Indians in comparison to other countries. Due to lack of any definitive treatment palliative chemotherapy usually adopted particularly for advanced unresectable gallbladder cancers. The purpose of this study is to gather the demographical data and the various treatment modalities in place in the clinical practice for patients presented with gallbladder complications. Progression-free survival following the palliative chemotherapy was also assessed and presented as mean and 95% CI. Results from this study gathered clinically relevant and important data on the patients presented with gall bladder complications starting from the diagnosis of the disease, treatments implicated, response to the treatment and progression-free survival of the patients on palliative chemotherapy.

Received 19 June 2017 Revised 22 August 2017 Accepted 31 August 2017 Early online 20 November 2017 Print 31 January 2018 Malnutrition is one of the largest public health problems in developing countries. India contributes 1/3 rd of total malnourished children in the world, with prevalence as high as 29.4%. Chronic malnutrition experienced during early life inhibits growth, retards mental development; reduce motivation and energy level, causing reduction in educational attainments. The purpose of this study was to assess the association of malnutrition with scholastic performance among 8–12 year children in 2 selected private schools in Meerut. This cross sectional study was done among 8–12 year school going children, with sample size of 384, taking the prevalence as 50%, precision as 10%. The private schools were selected randomly from the list of urban schools in Meerut. Malnutrition was assessed using anthropometric measurements and records from school were used to analyze scholastic performance. A total of 483 children across 2 private schools were evaluated wherein 29% of children were found to be malnourished. A significant association between malnutrition and scholastic performance was observed. In conclusion, nutrition have significant impact on the scholastic performance, with all programs running in government schools there is a need for a program in private schools as well.
