Background: Nutrition is the important aspect in improving quality of human being resources. Malnutrition is still a problem in Indonesia. This problem is caused by some factors, those are direct and indirect factors. Direct factors consist of dietary intake and infection disease. Dietary intake is a combination of breast milk and complementary foods. Indirect factors consist of food supply at home, treatment of pregnant mother and children, and health service. Early weaning will generate malnutrition at young age if it is not complemented with sufficient feeding. Malnutrition at young age can affect brain function permanently, because the development of brain will be optimum before two years old. This condition can influence the development of chidren’s intelligence.Objective: The objective of the study was to find out the relationship between weaning age and intelligence.Method: This was a cross sectional study, at kindergarten in Mlati Sub-district. Subjects were recruited based on a simple random sampling technique. There were 194 children and mothers who met the inclusion criteria and the exclusion criteria. Those were who had chronic disease and never got breastfeeding. Instruments in this study were questionnaire, microtoise, and Standford-Binet test. Data were analysed with chi square test.Results: The study showed that 52.6% of children had the age of weaning <2 years and 47.4% had weaning at >2 years. Out of 194 children, 79.9% were normal and 20.1% of them were stunted. There were 97.7% of children who had good intelligence, whereas 2.1% of them had low intelligence. There was no significant relationship between nutritional status and intelligence (p=0.181), but there was significant relationship between cognitive stimulation and intelligence (p=0.037). There was no significant relationship between weaning age and nutritional status (p=0.209), and neither was relationship between weaning age and intelligence (p=1.000).Conclusion: There was no significant relationship between nutritional status and intelligence.

Background: Cross-infection control is a dynamic field that requires frequent updates due to emerging diseases, advancement in technology, and scientific knowledge. Despite wide publication of guidelines, a laxity in compliance to the standard precautions for infection control by dental health-care personnel (DHCP) has been reported globally. Therefore, there is need to review previous shortcomings in order to adequately secure dental practices during the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic. The aim of the study was to determine knowledge and infection control practices by dentists in private practices. The study was done a few months before the first COVID-19 case was confirmed in Kenya.Materials and Methods: The study design was a descriptive cross-sectional study that was carried out in selected private dental clinics located in Nairobi. Data were collected using an interviewer-administered questionnaire. Convenience sampling method was utilized, while data were analyzed using SPSS 20.0.0.0.Results: A total of 71 private dentists participated in the study. Their mean age was 38 years with an age range of 27–55 years. Almost all (70, 98.6%) the dentists were able to define cross infection correctly. Majority (62, 87.3%) correctly differentiated between sterilization and disinfection, while 9 (12.7%) had difficulties. Most (68, 95.8%) of the respondents were aware of the standard precautions for cross-infection control. All participants used face masks and gloves. About half of them (38, 54%) practiced hand washing after removal of gloves and 31 (43.7%) before and after wearing of gloves, while 2 (2.8%) washed hands only before wearing gloves. Only 31 (42.3%) and 26 (36.6%) participants reported use of rubber dam isolation and impervious barrier, respectively. All the dentists reported disposal of sharps into especially labeled containers, while about half reported use of disposable suction traps and amalgam separators.Conclusion: The dentists had a good knowledge on various aspects of infection control measures that were studied. Use of basic personal protective equipment was widely practiced. There were irregularities in hand hygiene, use of rubber dam, surface barriers, and waste management. The work highlights that many dentists were unprepared to manage infectious risk during the COVID-19 outbreak, which justified the closure of the dental facilities. Development of strategies to promote adequate and safe practice is highly recommended.

Background: Coronavirus disease is a highly transmittable and pathogenic viral infection caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2, which poses therapeutic dilemmas. Some suggestions for drug treatment seem problematic. Beliefs about the causes of health problems are determinants of treatment seeking decisions. Hence, one of the alternatives for the solution of health problems is employing traditional medicine to prevent coronavirus disease 19. Objective: To assess the knowledge, attitude, and utilization of drugs toward the coronavirus disease 19 pandemic among Bale zone residents. Methods: Community-based cross-sectional study was conducted among the Bale Zone population from May 30 to June 30, 2020. Eight hundred fifty-four participants were selected using a single population formula, and a multistage sampling technique was employed. Data were analyzed using SPSS version 25.0. Descriptive and binary logistic regression was used to analyze the outcomes. A p value ⩽ 0.05 was considered statistically significant. Results: Out of the total 854 respondents, about 534 (62.5%) got information about coronavirus disease 19 from TV/radio. More than two-thirds (71.9%) of the respondents have known that severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 has no curative drugs, and 65.4% had a more appropriate attitude toward overall drug use in coronavirus disease 19. Level of education and, attitude towards drug use were singnificantly associated with knowledge of drugs, source of information about coronavirus disease 19 and having good practice were significantly associated with atittude toward drug utilization. Conclusion: One out of two study participants have good knowledge regarding drugs to the coronavirus disease 19 pandemic. Illiterate people in the community were identified to have poor knowledge about drugs, hence community educuation program is important to improve the knowledge about drugs towards the coronavirus disease 19 pandemic.
