Factors Affecting Illness01:18

Factors Affecting Illness

4.3K
When a person's physical, emotional, intellectual, social development or spiritual functioning is compromised, this deviation from a healthy normal state is called illness. Illness creates stress that in turn harms individuals. Irritation, anger, denial, hopelessness, and fear are behavioral and emotional changes an individual experiences in the phases of illness. A variety of factors influence a person's health and well-being.
For instance, risk factors are connected to illness,...

Bias in Epidemiological Studies

406
Biases can arise at various stages of research, from study design and data collection to analysis and interpretation. Recognizing and addressing these biases is essential to ensure the validity and reliability of epidemiological findings.Broadly speaking, biases in epidemiology fall into three main categories: selection bias, information bias, and confounding. A more detailed description of possible biases is:

Factors Affecting the Risk of Infection01:26

Factors Affecting the Risk of Infection

12.1K
The hosts' susceptibility to infection depends on several factors. The integrity of the skin and mucous membranes helps protect the body against microbial attacks. When the skin is altered, the chance of infection, limb loss, and even death increases.
The integrity and count of the white blood cells help the body resist pathogens and fight infection. When impaired, it reduces the body's resistance to pathogens. The acidic pH levels of the gastrointestinal, genitourinary tracts, and skin...

Prevalence and Incidence01:08

Prevalence and Incidence

660
In statistical epidemiology and health sciences, two essential metrics—prevalence and incidence—are fundamental for understanding disease dynamics within a population. These measures enable public health officials, epidemiologists, and researchers to assess the burden of diseases, allocate resources effectively, and design impactful public health policies and interventions.
Prevalence indicates the proportion of individuals in a population who have a specific disease or health...

Principles of Disease Surveillance01:26

Principles of Disease Surveillance

145
Disease surveillance is the systematic collection, analysis, and interpretation of health data essential to the planning, implementation, and evaluation of public health practice. This process integrates data dissemination to entities responsible for preventing and controlling disease, injury, and disability. Surveillance systems provide crucial information for action, helping public health authorities make informed decisions to manage and prevent outbreaks, ensure public safety, optimize...

Area of Science:

  • Public Health
  • Epidemiology
  • Immunization Practices

Background:

  • Healthcare access challenges in remote areas disproportionately affect vaccination rates.
  • Quilombola communities and rural settlements face unique barriers to healthcare services.
  • Understanding vaccination coverage in these specific populations is crucial for public health interventions.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To determine vaccination coverage in children under one year old in Brazil's central region's quilombola and rural settlements.
  • To identify factors associated with incomplete childhood vaccination in these communities.

Main Methods:

  • An analytical cross-sectional study was performed on children born between 2015 and 2017.
  • Vaccination coverage was calculated based on the National Immunization Program's schedule up to 11 months and 29 days.
  • Consolidated logistic regression analyzed factors linked to incomplete vaccination.

Main Results:

  • Overall vaccination coverage was 52.8%, with significant variation across different vaccines.
  • No significant differences in coverage were observed between quilombola and rural settler groups.
  • Children lacking healthcare professional visits showed a higher likelihood of incomplete vaccination.

Conclusions:

  • Low vaccination coverage in quilombola and rural settlement children necessitates urgent public health strategies.
  • Addressing healthcare access and professional engagement is vital for achieving health equity.
  • Targeted interventions are required to improve immunization rates in these vulnerable populations.
