Parasitic Infections and Maternal Anaemia Among Expectant Mothers
Tay et al. BMC Res Notes (2017) 10:3 DOI 10.1186/s13104-016-2327-5 BMC Research Notes RESEARCH ARTICLE Open Access Parasitic infections and maternal anaemia among expectant mothers in the Dangme East District of Ghana Samuel Crowther Kofi Tay1, Emmanuel Agbeko Nani1 and Williams Walana2* Abstract Background: Parasitic infections are of public health concern globally, particular among at risk groups such as preg- nant women in developing countries. The presence of these parasites during pregnancy potentiate adverse effects to both the mother and the unborn baby. This study sought to establish the prevalence of some parasitic agents among antenatal attendees in the Dangme East District of Ghana. A cross-sectional prospective study was conduct between April and July, 2012. Venous blood specimens were collected from each participant for haemoglobin estimation and malaria microscopy. In addition participants’ early morning mid-stream urine and stool specimens were analyzed microscopically for parasitic agents. Results: A total of 375 pregnant women were involved in the study, of which anaemia was present in 66.4% (249/375). However, parasitic infections associated anaemia prevalence was 49.6% (186/375). In all, 186 cases of para- sitic infections were observed; 171 (44.0%) were single isolated infections while 15 (4.0%) were co-infections. Plasmo- dium species were significantly associated with anaemia (13.3%, χ2 23.290, p < 0.001). Also, the presence of Schisto- soma haematobium (3.7%, χ2 7.267, p 0.008), Schistosoma mansoni= (5.3%, χ2 5.414, p 0.023) and hookworm (3.7%, χ2 11.267, p 0.008)= were significantly= associated with anaemia in pregnancy.= Except= where co-infections exist (3.7%,= χ2 11.267,= p 0.001), the rest of the single infections were insignificantly associated with anaemia. -
Health Care and Infrastructure in Accra, Ghana
Health Care and Infrastructure in Accra, Ghana Jennifer L. Pehr Advanced Issues in Urban Planning 27 April 2010 Page 1 of 21 Introduction Ghana, located in West Africa, was the first of the colonized countries in Africa to declare its independence. Accra is Ghana‟s capital city, and serves as the geographic and economic gateway to this region. The city‟s diverse economy is home to both local and regional traders as well as many international companies. Since its independence, Accra‟s population has increased rapidly. In 1957, the city had a population of approximately 190,000 (Grant &Yankson, 2003); today, the city‟s population is estimated to be over three million (Millennium Cities Initiative website). Accra experienced a period of rapid spatial expansion in the 1980s, and has been urbanizing rapidly ever since. Much of the city‟s growth has not been planned, and as a result, Accra‟s spatial expansion in recent years has occurred in some of the poorest areas of the city. This unfettered and unplanned growth has had severe implications for the population of Accra, and is most pronounced in the lack of basic urban infrastructure, including water and sanitation, transportation, education and health care in many parts of the city. In January 2010, Accra partnered with the Millennium Cities Initiative (MCI) to become a “Millennium City.” MCI works with underserved urban areas in sub-Saharan Africa to help them eradicate extreme poverty and to attain the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) (MCI website). To fully realize a city‟s social and economic potential, needs assessments are conducted in many areas, including education, gender, water and sanitation, health and opportunities for economic development and foreign direct investment. -
Flooding in the Greater Accra Region Claims 12 Lives on April 15, 2019
Flooding in the Greater Accra Region claims 12 lives on April 15, 2019 BACKGROUND/ DEMOGRAPHY Map of the Greater Accra Region ü The Greater Accra Region is the administrative capital of Ghana, occupying a total land area of 3,245 square kilometres. ü In terms of population, it is the second most populous region after the Ashanti Region, with a population of 4,010,054 according to the 2010 population census. This accounts for 15.4 per cent of Ghana’s total population. © Wikipedia ü Politically, administration of the region is organized through the Local Government system. Under this administration system, the region is divided into five districts namely Accra Metropolitan Area, Tema Municipal Area, Ga East District, Ga West District, Dangme West District and Dangme East District. ü The Accra Metropilitan Area is administered by a Chief Executive, representing the Central Source: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Greater_Accra_Region#/media/ Government but deriving authority from an File:Districts_of_the_Greater_Accra_Region_(2012).svg Assembly headed by a Presiding Member elected from the members of the Assembly. ü In the last few years, severe floods hit the capital city, Accra. For instance, on June 3rd 2015, heavy rains caused flooding that impacted many parts of the Greater Accra Region. Over 200 people lost their lives, many were displaced and a number of properties destroyed. ü In addition to this, are the costs of disrupted livelihoods and economic activities coupled with health risks brought about by the floods. INCIDENT PROFILE Following the recent rains that hit some parts of the country, 12 lives have been lost in the Greater Accra Region. -

Grantee organization: Ghana Wildlife Society 2. Grant title: Mainstreaming Site-Scale Ecosystem Values into Local Decision-Making in Ghana 3. Grant number: 100805 4. Grant amount (US dollars): 99,328.35 5. Proposed dates of grant: 1st August, 2017 – 31st January, 2019 6. Countries or territories where project will be undertaken: Ghana. 7. Date of preparation of this document: 28th May, 2017 8. Introduction: Information on the physical changes to forest ecosystems and the socio-economic consequences that might result from alternative land uses i.e. the "costs and benefits" of those changes is not well developed among local government agencies, the Forestry Commission and private sector actors. Moreover, some decision-makers are more likely to support ecosystem conservation for socio-economic reasons, rather than for the intrinsic value of biodiversity and associated ethical reasons. Although some of the ecosystem services are well known to include food, fuel, fibre and provision of cultural services, that provide benefits to people through recreation and cultural appreciation of nature, other services provided by the three KBAs selected for the project are not so well known. These include the regulation of the climate, purification of air and water and flood protection, soil formation and nutrient cycling. Hence, the case for conservation can be made more compelling for the afore-mentioned audience if the relationship between biodiversity and ecosystem services and the value of ecosystem services provided by key biodiversity areas (sites) are better understood. -
