| 1 | Mass drug administration for lymphatic filariasis elimination in a coastal state of India: a study on barriers to coverage and compliance显示文摘Background:Lymphatic filariasis is targeted for elimination in India through mass drug administration(MDA)with diethylcarbamazine(DEC)combined with albendazole(ABZ).For the strategy to be effective,>65%of those living in endemic areas must be covered by and compliant to MDA.Post the MDA 2011 campaign in the endemic district of Odisha,we conducted a survey to assess:(i)the filariasis knowledge in the community,(ii)the coverage and compliance of MDA from the community perspective,and(iii)factors affecting compliance,as well as the operational issues involved in carrying out MDA activities from the drug distributor’s perspective.Methods:A sample of 691 participants-both male and female,aged two years or above-were selected through multistage stratified sampling and interviewed using a semi-structured questionnaire.Additionally,drug distributors and the medical officers in charge of the MDA were also interviewed to understand some of the operational issues encountered during MDA.Results:Ninety-nine percent of the study participants received DEC and ABZ tablets during MDA,of which only just above a quarter actually consumed the drugs.The cause of non-compliance was mostly due to fear of side effects,lack of awareness of the benefits of MDA,and non-attendance of health staff in the villages.Lack of adequate training of drug distributors and poor health communication activities before the MDA campaign commenced and the absence of follow-up by health workers following MDA were a few of the operational difficulties encountered during the MDA campaign.Conclusion:Currently MDA is restricted to the distribution of drugs only and the key issues of implementation in compliance,health education,managing side effects,and logistics are not given enough attention.It is therefore essential to address the issues linked to low compliance to make the program more efficient and achieve the goal of filariasis elimination. | Mohammad A Hussain Ashok K Sitha Subhashisa Swain Shridhar Kadam Sanghamitra Pati | 2014 | Infectious Diseases of Poverty2014，3，1： | 1 |
| 2 | Distribution of and associated factors for dengue burden in the state of Odisha,India during 2010-2016显示文摘This study is aimed to estimate the epidemiological burden of dengue in Odisha,India using the disability adjusted life year(DALY)methods and to explore the associated factors in the year 2010-2016.During the period of 2010-2016,27772 cases(68.4%male)were reported in the state.Mean age(years)of male and female was 31.63 and 33.82,respectively.Mean district wise disability adjusted life years(DALY)per 100000 people was higher in the year 2016(0.45)and mean DALY lost per person was highest in the year 2015(34.90 years).Adjusted regression model indicates,every unit increase in humidity and population density increases DALY by 1.05 and 1.02 units respectively.Whereas,unit change in sex ratio(females per 1000 males)and forest coverage increases the DALY by 0.98 units.Our results indicate geographical variation of DALY in Odisha,which is associated with population density,humidity and forest cover.Discrepancies identified between standard incidence and DALY maps suggests,latter can be used to present disease burden more effectively.More prevalence among young males suggests the need of strengthening the targeted prevention and control measures. | Subhashisa Swain Minakshi Bhatt Sanghamitra Pati Ricardo J.Soares Magalhaes | 2019 | Infectious Diseases of Poverty2019，8，3： | 1 |
