, Abstract Background: Nigeria's population continues to grow at a fast rate despite the presumed increase in the use of contraceptives. Appropriate strategies and policies that will contribute to better coverage may arise from reviewing current trends. Objectives: To determine the trend of contraceptive use among women attending family planning clinics in selected facilities in the southwestern part of Nigeria from 2007 to 2017. Methods: This is a retrospective study of women who accessed family planning services from the selected primary, secondary, and tertiary health care facilities in the southwestern part of Nigeria between 2007 and 2017. Information related to their age, parity, and method of contraceptives were obtained using a standardized proforma. Data were analyzed using SPSS Version 17.0 (SPSS Inc., Chicago, IL, USA) statistical package. Results: During the 10-year review period, the majority of the clients that assessed family planning services at the selected secondary and tertiary healthcare institutions opted for IUCD, accounting for 51.5 % and 45.5 %, respectively, whereas, at the selected primary healthcare centers, progestin injectable was the most popular (51.3 %). Women within the age range of 30-39 years and those having two and three parity are more likely to use modern contraceptive methods in Nigeria. Conclusions: We observed apparent variations in the pattern of contraceptive use in primary, secondary, and tertiary health care facilities. Population settings rather than accessibility and availability of modern contraceptive methods appear to determine the choice and pattern of contraceptive use. There may be a need to devise strategies and policies to help meet specific contraceptive needs of clients in different population settings.
背景:尼日利亚的人口继续以快速的速度增长，尽管假定增加使用避孕药具。审查目前的趋势可能会产生有助于提高覆盖面的适当战略和政策。目的:确定2007年至2017年在尼日利亚西南部选定机构的计划生育诊所就诊的妇女使用避孕药具的趋势。方法:这是一项回顾性研究，研究对象是2007年至2017年期间在尼日利亚西南部选定的初级、二级和三级卫生保健机构获得计划生育服务的妇女。他们的年龄、胎次和避孕方法的相关信息使用标准化的形式获得。数据分析采用SPSS Version 17.0 (SPSS Inc.， Chicago, IL, USA)统计软件包。结果:在10年回顾期间，在选定的二级和三级卫生保健机构评估计划生育服务的大多数客户选择宫内节育器，分别占51.5%和45.5%，而在选定的初级卫生保健中心，注射黄体酮最受欢迎(51.3%)。在尼日利亚，年龄在30-39岁之间的妇女以及有过两次和三次胎次的妇女更有可能使用现代避孕方法。结论:我们观察到在初级、二级和三级卫生保健机构中避孕药具使用模式的明显变化。决定避孕药具使用的选择和模式的似乎是人口环境，而不是现代避孕方法的可及性和可得性。可能需要制定战略和政策，以帮助满足不同人口背景下客户的具体避孕需求。

Background: HAI is a disease occurred due to healthcare and is associated with a great deal of morbidity, mortality, and increased financial burden. Objective: To assess the capacity of surveillance and response systems of HAIs and HAIOs in regions in Saudi Arabia. Methodology: A cross-sectional study was conducted at the regional level in Saudi Arabia. The WHO model for surveillance questionnaire was modified and filled from the regional level. Results: 78.57 % of regions had surveillance manuals. Only 24.4 % of reports were sent. 54.54 % of the outbreaks were reported, and 63.64 % were investigated. Half of the regions did not have a budget or funds. Half of the areas had a shortage in the staff. The main level visited only 35.7 % of the regions. Conclusion: The surveillance system at the regional level needs improvement in its core and support functions.

Background The Corona Virus Disease -19 (COVID-19) pandemic is a global health emergency that requires the adoption of unprecedented measures to control its rapid spread. Tanzanians' adherence to control measures is affected by their knowledge, attitudes, and practices (KAP) towards the disease. This study was carried out to investigate knowledge, attitudes and practices towards COVID-19 among residents in Tanzania during the April – May 2020 period of the epidemic. Methods This cross-sectional study analyzes responses of self-selected Tanzanians who responded to an invitation to complete an online questionnaire. Survey Monkey tool was used to develop the questionnaire used for data collection. The survey assessed demographic characteristics of participants as well as their knowledge, attitudes, and practices toward COVID-19. A Chi-square analysis was used to compare proportions. Analysis of variance (ANOVA) was used to determine differences among age groups, whereas results were considered significant if the p-value was <0.05 Four hundred residents completed the survey. The mean age of study participants was 32 years, and the majority was female (n= 216,54.0%). There were no significant differences in demographic variables). Participants with a bachelor's degree or above (n= 241, had higher scores. Overall, 84.4% (n=338) of participants had good knowledge, which was significantly associated with education level (p=0.001). Nearly all participants (n=384, 96.0%) had confidence that COVID-19 will be eliminated. The majority of respondents (n=308, 77.0%) did not go to a crowded place in recent days. Multiple linear regression analysis showed that males, age-group 16-29 years, and education of secondary or lower (OR = 1.2, CI = 1.3 – 1.5) were significantly associated with lower knowledge score. Our findings revealed good knowledge, optimistic attitudes, and appropriate practices towards preventing COVID-19 infection. Suggesting that community-based health education programs about COVID-19 is helpful and necessary to control the disease.

African American adolescent girls have evidenced higher levels of disruptive behavior than girls from other ethnic groups. However, most research focused on understanding disparities in these outcomes has been conducted without consideration of gender or has focused exclusively on boys. Yet, prior research suggests that anger and aggression are less gender-typed in African American youth than they are among youth from other ethnic backgrounds. The purpose of this preliminary investigation was to examine the extent to which ethnic-specific gender schemas about anger mediated the relationship between ethnicity and girls' disruptive behavior. Participants were 66 middle school girls (24.1 % African American, 46.3 % European American; Mage= 12.06). They completed measures of ethnic-specific gender schemas about anger, reactive and instrumental aggression, and classroom disruptive behavior. Results indicated that relative to girls from other ethnic groups, African American girls had higher levels of reactive aggression and classroom disruptive behavior, both of which are rooted in anger. In contrast, no ethnic difference was found for instrumental aggression, which is not connected to anger. Ethnic-specific gender schemas about anger at least partially accounted for ethnic differences in reactive aggression and classroom disruptive behavior. Findings highlight the importance of examining gender schemas specific to ethnicity as factors in ethnic disparities in behavioral outcomes among adolescent girls.
