Objective: The association of socioeconomic status with health is well-established. Nevertheless, the underlying mechanisms linking socioeconomic status to adverse health outcomes have yet to be established. We hypothesized that poor posture- as a risk factor in general health- would be directly related to socioeconomic status and, as such, eventually influence health. Materials and Methods: With cross-sectional design, in representative clustered sample of 100 children aged 7-11, kyphosis, lordosis, head and shoulder posture were examined. Socioeconomic status data was collected from parents. Logistic regression models were used in analysis by SPSS version 18 (α=0.05). Results: Poor posture was seen in 68% of the children. Lower posture scores were recorded in children with poorer socioeconomic status (p<0.01; β=0.769). In logistic regression (p<0.05), only 3 out of 5 estimates (Household income: β=0.244; Mother’s education: β=0.449; Father’s education: β=0.279) were statistically significant, while there was no association between the social class of parents and children’s posture. Conclusion: The observed association of socioeconomic status with children’s posture is probably the consequence of the perception that people with higher socioeconomic status have better nutritional conditions, and are more likely to be engaged in regular physical activities. The positive influence of sports has been more frequently reported by higher educated parents, and they are more likely to encourage their children to participate in physical activities. Moreover, the better posture which has been observed in children with higher socioeconomic status, might be caused by more postural education they receive from their highly educated parents.

Background: Smoking is a leading cause of preventable death, killing more than 5 million yearly. Smoking among health care personnel such as medical students is an important public health issue. This study was done to understand and in future find effective measures to reduce tobacco smoking among medical students. Objectives: To find the prevalence and to assess knowledge, attitude and practice of tobacco smoking among students of a Private Medical College in Central Kerala. Material and Methods: Cross-sectional study, using pretested, anonymous questionnaire, was conducted in a private medical college in central Kerala and proportions, test of significance like χ2and t test were used. Results: Out of 342 students, 26 (7.6%) were smokers; Males 25 (21.0%, out of 119), females 1 (0.44% out of 223), 72 (21.1%) had ever smoked; of which 60 were males (50.42%) and 12 (5.38%) were females; 82 (24%) had family members who smoked; 196 (57.3%) had relatives who smoked; and 184 (53.8%) had a smoker in their friend circle. 68.4% of students do not like to socialize or engage in activities with smokers. 17 (53.2% of smokers) want to quit smoking; 17 (51.5% of smokers) claimed to have a relapse. Conclusions: Smokers are predominantly more between 21-26 years of age. Most of students started the habit of smoking between 16-20 years of age, therefore it is necessary to bring positive behavioral changes through adoption of comprehensive awareness programs on harmful effects of smoking among adolescent school going children.

Objective : Sleep is very important for healthy, efficient and happy life of every person. Medical students, being future doctors, need to have good rest and learn to take good care of themselves if they have to serve people efficiently in future. This subject, of quality of sleep among medical students, has not been researched in India. We are doing a pilot study to find out the sleep status of medical students in a private medical college in Kerala. Design: Cross sectional study was done on medical students. Subjects: 20% of randomly selected students from five batches, a total of 100 students. Methods: Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) form was administered to the students. Data was tabulated and analysed using Microsoft Excel. Scoring was done using PSQI Microsoft Access database software. Results: Out of 100, 53 (53%) students showed poor quality sleep with Global PSQI score >5. Though only 5% felt their sleep was bad, 87% were found to have bad or worse sleep efficiency scores. Conclusions: Future doctors must follow good sleep hygiene and habits to ensure positive health, to ensure a long life full of energy. This subject needs to be studied further.
目的:睡眠对每个人健康、高效、快乐的生活都非常重要。医学生作为未来的医生,如果他们将来要有效地为人们服务,就需要好好休息,学会照顾好自己。关于医科学生的睡眠质量这一课题,在印度还没有进行过研究。我们正在进行一项试点研究,以了解喀拉拉邦一所私立医学院医学生的睡眠状况。设计:横断面研究以医学生为研究对象。研究对象:五批随机抽取20%的学生,共100名学生。方法:采用匹兹堡睡眠质量指数(PSQI)量表对学生进行问卷调查。使用Microsoft Excel对数据进行制表和分析。评分采用PSQI Microsoft Access数据库软件。结果:在100名学生中,53名(53%)学生表现为睡眠质量差,全球PSQI评分为bb50。虽然只有5%的人觉得自己睡眠不好,但87%的人睡眠效率得分不佳或更差。结论:未来的医生必须遵循良好的睡眠卫生和习惯,以确保积极的健康,以确保长寿充满活力。这个问题需要进一步研究。

Introduction: Stem cell transplantation (SCT) is a life-saving procedure for a number of malignant and non-malignant life-threatening diseases. Umbilical cord blood (UCB) which was thought to be as waste material earlier, is considered now a valuable thing. It is an important source of hematopoietic stem cells. A stem cell transplant is the infusion of healthy cells to replace diseased or damaged ones. Material and Method: This was a Cross- sectional study conducted on 80 undergraduate medical students & 80 non-medical students and 40 Antenatal mothers. The study tool for data collection in the form of a Structured Questionnaire was designed. Study was conducted for a period of two months. Data was analysed in SPSS version 20, Chi-Square test was used to assess the significance of the responses and a P value < 0.05 was considered statistically significant. Results: 45% medicos and 31.25% non medicos were aware of the terminology stem cell while only 10% Antenatal mothers knew about it. Monetary Reason was the major factor which prevented 77.5% mothers from opting for stem cell preservation while12.5% Antenatal mothers never thought of it, 7.5% Antenatal mothers did not opt because of social stigma and 2.5% due to Ethical consideration. Conclusion: Students from streams other than Medicine and antenatal mothers should be educated about the advances being made in Medical Science and a brief introduction about the newer modalities of treatments, to increase people participation and achieving a Holistic Approach towards Health Care.
干细胞移植(SCT)是一种挽救生命的程序,许多恶性和非恶性危及生命的疾病。脐带血(UCB)以前被认为是废物,现在被认为是有价值的东西。它是造血干细胞的重要来源。干细胞移植是注入健康细胞来取代患病或受损的细胞。材料与方法:本研究是一项横断面研究,对80名本科医学生、80名非医学生和40名产前母亲进行研究。设计了以结构化问卷形式收集数据的研究工具。研究进行了两个月。数据采用SPSS version 20进行分析,采用卡方检验评价应答的显著性,P值< 0.05为差异有统计学意义。结果:45%的医务人员和31.25%的非医务人员知道干细胞这一术语,而只有10%的产前母亲知道这一术语。77.5%的母亲选择干细胞保存的主要原因是经济原因,而12.5%的产前母亲从未想过,7.5%的产前母亲没有选择是因为社会耻辱,2.5%的产前母亲出于道德考虑。结论:应该对医学和产前母亲以外专业的学生进行有关医学科学进展的教育,并简要介绍新的治疗方式,以增加人们的参与,实现对保健的整体做法。

Introduction: Self-medication is defined as medication taken on one's own initiative or on the advice of pharmacist or any other lay person. It is one of the leading cause for the ever threatening drug resistance for various drugs. Medical students are future physicians and prescribers. It is important to know how they use medicines and what the pattern is. Hence, assessing their practice on this sensitive issue will help in planning interventions to prevent irrational use of medicines. Objective : To determine the prevalence and pattern of self-medication among medical students. Methods: A cross-sectional study was done among the medical students of a private college in Central Kerala using a pre - tested semi-structured questionnaire which had questions regarding common drugs used for self-medication, ailments, reasons, source & also awareness about dose, course & side effects of the drug used. Results: Prevalence of self-medication was 95%. Commonly self-medicated drugs include antipyretics 253(78.06%) and analgesics 158(58.8%). Diseases which are commonly self-medicated are fever 273(84.4%) and aches & pain 184(56.4%). Majority of students were self-medicating due to mild nature of illness 236(72.9%). Common source of self-medicated drugs were pharmacy for 248(76.5%), family &friends for 137(42.2%). Conclusions: Prevalence of self-medication was found to be very high among medical students. Considering the fact that the respondents are future prescribers, correct, timely use of drugs need to be stressed. But they were using the drugs only for common ailments and not for serious diseases.
