The Impact Of Maternal Race, Birthplace, And Regional Mobility Status On Birth Outcomes, Pattie Jo Carter Tucker Jan 2002

The Impact Of Maternal Race, Birthplace, And Regional Mobility Status On Birth Outcomes, Pattie Jo Carter Tucker

All ETDs from UAB

The purpose of this study was to determine if there is variation in birth outcomes to U.S.-born women that moved to or within the U.S. southern region. The 1995, 1996, and 1997 national files of linked birth/infant death certificates were combined to examine the relationship between maternal characteristics and adverse birth outcomes. The data were classified by maternal race (non-Hispanic African American and White American), and maternal mobility status was categorized into three groups: (a) nonmigrants—born in the southern region and delivered in their state of birth, (b) inter-region migrants—born in the southern region and delivered in a southern state …

An Evaluation Study On Nutrition Rehabilitation Centers In Accra, Ghana, Esi Komeley Colecraft Jan 2002

An Evaluation Study On Nutrition Rehabilitation Centers In Accra, Ghana, Esi Komeley Colecraft

All ETDs from UAB

The primary goals of nutrition rehabilitation centers (NRCs) are to recuperate malnourished children and improve caretakers' child feeding practices. Children ( N = 116) and caretakers ( N = 108) newly enrolled in four NRCs in Accra, Ghana were recruited and studied longitudinally at four time points: admission, interim, exit and postexit . Data collection included observations of activities at the NRCs, anthropometry, interviews, dietary assessments, and weighing of NRC foods. Caretaker/child pairs attended the NRCs 33% ± 21% of their total stay, and the majority (78%) discontinued participation before being officially discharged. At exit , ≥60% of children had …


Seasonality Of Cardiovascular Disease Risk Factors, Donna Garland Robbins Jan 2002

Seasonality Of Cardiovascular Disease Risk Factors, Donna Garland Robbins

All ETDs from UAB

Generalizability of possible seasonality of cardiovascular disease risk factors has not been demonstrated, and, if present, biologic mechanisms remain uncertain. This was addressed by examining cross-sectional seasonal variation in cardiovascular disease risk factors among Coronary Artery Risk Development in Young Adults (CARDIA) subjects, and cross-sectional and longitudinal seasonal variation in and interrelationships between lipids and thyroid hormone levels in a Lipid Variation Influence of Stress (LVIS) study subsample. Although crude analyses identified some significant seasonal variation in low density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol, physical activity, maximum heart rate, caloric intake, triglycerides, body weight and blood pressure overall and/or among race/gender strata …


High -Risk Sexual Behavior And Condom Use Among Textile Workers In Tamil Nadu, India, Sushena Reza-Paul Jan 2002

High -Risk Sexual Behavior And Condom Use Among Textile Workers In Tamil Nadu, India, Sushena Reza-Paul

All ETDs from UAB

Human immunodeficiency virus/acquired immune deficiency syndrome (HIV/AIDS) is a rapidly growing problem in India, with a 2002 estimate of over four million infected persons. The magnitude of the epidemic varies widely among the different Indian states but is predominantly from heterosexual transmission nationwide. In Tamil Nadu, the infection rates among the general population are now above 1%. Most prevention and control activities are restricted to mass information, education, and communication and targeted programs for the highest risk groups. With an increasingly generalized HIV epidemic, the need to respond to the HIV risk faced by lower risk populations assumes more importance. …


Prenatal Exposure To Toxic Substances And The Risk Of Congenital Malformations In Florida, Alan D. Rowan Jan 2002

Prenatal Exposure To Toxic Substances And The Risk Of Congenital Malformations In Florida, Alan D. Rowan

All ETDs from UAB

A retrospective cohort study was conducted to assess the association between congenital malformations and proximity to hazardous waste sites in Florida. All children whose mother lived within 10 miles of a hazardous waste site during gestation during the years 1996–1998 were in the study. Cases were children with birth defects whose mothers lived within 10 miles of a hazardous waste site during gestation. Controls were children whose mothers also lived within 10 miles of a hazardous waste site during gestation but did not have birth defects. The proximity of residence during gestation was not associated with the development of birth …


Maternal And Child Health Services Utilization By Hispanics In Alabama, Fausto Guillermo Patino Jan 2002

Maternal And Child Health Services Utilization By Hispanics In Alabama, Fausto Guillermo Patino

All ETDs from UAB

The Hispanic population in Alabama has rapidly increased in recent years, raising public health officials' concern about their health status and use of health care services. This study examined health services' utilization by first-generation Hispanic mothers and children in greater Birmingham. Constructs from the Health Belief Model and the Behavioral Model of Health Services Utilization were integrated to form the study's theoretical framework. The cross-sectional study included a questionnaire orally administered to 227 Hispanic mothers recruited via location and snowball sampling; questions focused on mothers and their youngest child between the ages of 6 months and 5 years (an index …
