  • Knowledge and Attitude of Pregnant Women Towards Preeclampsia and Its Associated Factors in South Gondar Zone, Northwest Ethiopi
    Mekie et al. BMC Pregnancy and Childbirth (2021) 21:160 https://doi.org/10.1186/s12884-021-03647-2 RESEARCH ARTICLE Open Access Knowledge and attitude of pregnant women towards preeclampsia and its associated factors in South Gondar Zone, Northwest Ethiopia: a multi‐center facility‐ based cross‐sectional study Maru Mekie1*, Dagne Addisu1, Minale Bezie1, Abenezer Melkie1, Dejen Getaneh2, Wubet Alebachew Bayih2 and Wubet Taklual3 Abstract Background: Preeclampsia has the greatest impact on maternal mortality which complicates nearly a tenth of pregnancies worldwide. It is one of the top five maternal mortality causes and responsible for 16 % of direct maternal death in Ethiopia. Little is known about the level of knowledge and attitude towards preeclampsia in Ethiopia. This study was designed to assess the knowledge and attitude towards preeclampsia and its associated factors in South Gondar, Northwest Ethiopia. Methods: A multicenter facility-based cross-sectional study was implemented in four selected hospitals of South Gondar Zone among 423 pregnant women. Multistage random sampling and systematic random sampling techniques were used to select the study sites and the study participants respectively. Data were entered in EpiData version 3.1 while cleaned and analyzed by Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS) version 23. Descriptive and inferential statistics were performed. Adjusted odds ratio with 95 % confidence interval were used to identify the significance of the association between the level of knowledge on preeclampsia and its predictors. Results: In this study, 118 (28.8 %), 120 (29.3 %) of the study participants had good knowledge and a positive attitude towards preeclampsia respectively. The likelihood of having good knowledge on preeclampsia was found to be low among women with no education (AOR = 0.22, 95 % CI (0.06, 0.85)), one antenatal care visit (ANC) (AOR = 0.13, 95 % CI (0.03, 0.59)).

  • Measles Outbreak in Simada District, South Gondar Zone, Amhara
    Brief communication Measles outbreak in Simada District, South Gondar Zone, Amhara Region, May - June 2009: Immediate need for strengthened routine and supplemental immunization activities (SIAs) Mer’Awi Aragaw1, Tesfaye Tilay2 Abstract Background: Recently measles outbreaks have been occurring in several areas of Ethiopia. Methods: Desk review of outbreak surveillance data was conducted to identify the susceptible subjects and highly affected groups of the community in Simada District, Amhara Region, May and June, 2009. Results: A total of 97 cases with 13 deaths (Case fatality Rate (CFR) of 13.4%) were reported delayed about 2 weeks. Cases ranged in of age range from 3 months to 79 years, with 43.3% aged 15 years and above; and high age specific attack rate in children under 5 and infants (p-value<0.0001). Conclusion and Recommendation: These findings indicate accumulation of susceptible children under 5 and a need to strengthen both routine and supplemental immunization activities (SIAs) and surveillance, with monitoring of accumulation of susceptible individuals to protect both target and non-target age groups. Surveillance should be extended to and owned by volunteer community health workers and the community, particularly in such remote areas. [Ethiop. J. Health Dev. 2012;26(2):115-118] Introduction outbreaks indicate accumulation of susceptible Measles is a highly infectious viral disease that can cause population for different reasons. permanent disabilities and death. In 1980, before the widespread global use of measles vaccine, an estimated Measles outbreak was reported from Simada District on 2.6 million measles deaths occurred worldwide (1). In 29 May 2009. This study to describes the outbreak and developing countries, serious complications may occur in identifies the susceptible population.

  • Jimma-Mizan Road Upgrading Project
    AFRICAN DEVELOPMENT FUND ETHIOPIA JIMMA-MIZAN ROAD UPGRADING PROJECT ENVIRONMENTAL AND SOCIAL IMPACT ASSESSMENT SUMMARY (ESIAS) INFRASTRUCTURE DEPARTMENT (OINF) SCCD : G. G. ETHIOPIA JIMMA-MIZAN ROAD UPGRADING PROJECT (Project Number: P- ET- DB0 – 011) ENVIRONMENTAL AND SOCIAL IMPACT ASSESSMENT SUMMARY 1. Introduction The Jimma-Mizan road upgrading project is one of the main road projects included in the Ethiopian Government’s 10 Years Road Sector Development Programme – (1997- 2007). This development programme is designed to improve and expand the country's road network in order to stimulate the economy for long term development. It is recognised that agriculture is the backbone of the economy and particular importance is placed on the development of this sector by the removal of the transport constraints facing the sector. This explains the decision to upgrade the deteriorating Jimma-Mizan road to provide market access to agricultural products and facilitate agricultural export particularly coffee produced in the project zone of influence. Road upgrading is likely to cause negative and positive impacts on the environment.The ESIA study for the Jimma-Mizan road project seeks to explain the biophysical features of the existing Jimma-Mizan road, to describe proposed realignment road sections and to assess potential positive and negative impacts of the whole Jimma-Mizan road upgrading project. It also proposed appropriate solutions to avoid or minimise any adverse impact that may result from the project during and after the upgrading process. The African Development Bank (AfDB) categorised this project as a Category 1 project, which is subjected to an ESIA. The Environmental Policy of Ethiopia (EPE) also includes ESIA policies in the cross-sectoral environmental policies and requires a project of this nature to prepare an ESIA study.

  • Good Governance for Achieving Food Security in Ethiopia: Challenges and Issues
    57 Good Governance for Achieving Food Security in Ethiopia: Challenges and Issues Mussie Ybabe, Addis Ababa University Sisay Asefa, Western Michigan University Abstract Although rice technologies have been introduced in Fogera district over the last two decades, farm household’s food demand was not met as expected. Sustained, intensified and coordinated rice research is the key to curb the problem but impaired due to lack of good governance coupled with weak institutional capacity. This has resulted snowballing effects like little or no discussion among/with farmers on good practices, successes/failures of technology adoption and input delivery; poor linkage of small farmers to market and knowledge gap in Development Agents. Therefore, this study identified and evaluated potential determinants of household food security with basic emphasis to factors linked to good governance introduced to address the problem of food security in the study area through farm household rice technology adoption. A multistage sampling technique is used to select respondents. To this end, the primary data was gathered from the field survey by administering pre-tested structured and semi-structured questionnaire. Good governance dimensions of food security are evaluated using binary logit model for its comparative mathematical and interpretational simplicity. Farmers’ own perception of rice technology intervention vis-a-vis farm household food security is explored using focus group discussions supplemented by in-depth interviews. This study result would be primarily important in designing policy interventions and good governance strategies ensuring appropriate use of rice technology and tackle food security problems. Key words: Rice technology, logit model, good governance, food security Introduction Ethiopia is one of the most famine-prone countries with a long history of famines and food shortages.
