This study aimed to identify the adaptation strategies against emerging wheat rust disease and determinants of farmers’ choice of adaptation strategies against this disease....

MAGNITUDE AND DETERMINANTS OF IMMEDIATE ADVERSE NEONATAL OUTCOMES OF CESAREAN SECTION AMONG PUBLIC HOSPITALS IN HARARI REGION, ETHIOPIA

Abstract: Although the Cesarean section (CS) is a safe operation, it puts babies at risk of short-term health problems when performed without medical need. Previous studies mainly relied upon chart review about the identification of immediate neonatal outcome after cesarean delivery. Therefore, there is a perceived gap in recent studies in determining the magnitude and determinants of the cesarean section’s immediate adverse neonatal outcome. Objective: Determine the magnitude and determin...

WATER SUPPLY ACCES S IBILITY AND AS SOCIATED FACTORS AMONG HOUSEHOLDS OF JIGJIGA TOWN, EASTERN ETHIOPIA

Abstract: Access to improved water source for drinking and other domestic uses is a major developmental challenge in many developing countries.
