Abstract:
The study of child growth is complex. There are many clinical questions to answer but not necessarily the statistical methodology to deal with these questions. Human growth begins at conception and continues into adult life. In chapter 1 we discuss the characteristics of the growth process from conception to maturity and the purpose of growth monitoring. In chapter 2 we summarise the mathematical approaches to growth data. In chapter 3 we summarise the approaches that have been used to detect growth faltering. In this chapter we introduce the conditional gain Z-score. The data set analysed within this thesis is from the Newcastle growth and development study. In infancy we have routine weights of 3415 term infants. A sub-sample of these infants were followed-up at 7-9 years as part of a research study. These children belonged to three subgroups: cases were children that were defined as failing to thrive in infancy, controls were matched to cases and a 20% systematic sample. The school entry data of the sub-sample followed at 7-9 years were retrieved from school health records. In chapter 4 we carry out a preliminary analysis of the routine infancy weight Z-scores. The infancy data provided the opportunity to generate the correlation structure of routine weight Z-scores in infancy. In chapter 5 we develop a model for this correlation structure. In chapter 7 we explore patterns in the conditional weight gain Z-scores and also suggest some alternative criteria for identifying growth faltering in infancy. In chapters 6, 8 and 9 we analyse the anthropometric data obtained at follow-up and school entry. In childhood, the conditional gain Z-score is used to contrast height with mid-parental height and height at follow-up with height at school entry. The anthropometric data of the case and control children will be compared.

Abstract:
Short stature and puberty delay can cause problems, both physical and psychological. Until relatively recently growth hormone was only available for children who met the criteria of "classical" growth hormone deficiency. Recombinant human growth hormone (rhGH) is now available in "unlimited" supply. Detailed studies are required to evaluate its use in short children who are not growth hormone insufficient in the traditional sense, but who may benefit from treatment. This thesis presents three studies in short normal children to evaluate the physical and psychological effects of growth promoting agents over the first two years of treatment. 1) a double blind placebo controlled study of rhGH in 37 pre-pubertal children (mean age 8.0 yrs) with familial short stature. This unequivocally demonstrates the short-term growth promoting effects of rhGH - over the first year the children treated with rhGH grew at a mean rate of 7.67 cm/yr, compared to 4.76 cm/yr for those who received placebo and 4.83 cm/yr for those who received no treatment. The onset and rate of puberty, especially in the girls, tended to be advanced. 2) in a randomised study in 43 peri-pubertal boys (mean age 11.6 yrs) with familial short stature, the growth promoting effects of rhGH were compared with the anabolic steroid oxandrolone, a combination of rhGH with oxandrolone, and a control group who received no active treatment. In the short term growth improved in the three actively treated groups compared to the control group - over the first study year the boys who received rhGH grew at a rate of 7.58 cm/yr, compared to 8.08 cm/yr for oxandrolone alone, 9.92 cm/yr in those who received rhGH plus oxandrolone, and 4.73cm/yr in the control group. In the groups who received oxandrolone, either singly or in combination with rhGH, onset of puberty was earlier and skeletal maturation more rapid. Caution is required in using oxandrolone to promote growth in younger boys without significant growth delay. 3) in a randomised study in 33 boys with puberty delay (mean age 14.9 yrs) the growth promoting effects of rhGH were compared with oral testosterone undecanoate, and a combination of the two drugs. There were no significant differences in the growth promoting effects (rhGH 8.59, testosterone undecanoate 8.48, combination 9.91 cm/yr) or rate of pubertal progression between the three groups There is no advantage Df rhGH therapy in boys with puberty delay, compared to oral testosterone undecanoate. Children of short stature are often thought to suffer from psychological or behavioural problems. A range of self report questionnaires was undertaken in these children prior to entry into the studies and at yearly intervals. They were not as a group clinically disturbed, but tended to score highly on hyperactivity. In those who received active treatements, especially rhGH, the reported behaviour and self esteem tended to improve, but the effects were not marked. It is possible to accelerate the growth of short normal children, at least in the short term, though it is less likely there will be a significant improvement in final height. There are psychological effects of growth promotion but they are subtle. It is difficult to justify the use of rhGH in young children with familial short stature, or in boys with puberty delay. Growth hormone must not be used indiscriminately in the short normal child.

Abstract:
The objective of this dissertation is to contribute to ongoing research on prenatal metals exposure, in terms of arsenic, lead, and manganese, and infant health and growth, and to deepen the understanding of the complexity of such problems. We seek to do so in three parts. First we examine the association between combined prenatal metals exposure and infant birth weight and head circumference. Then, we look at the effect on birth weight from the HFE gene variants and its interaction effects with arsenic. Finally, we look at the association of prenatal metals exposure and child growth up to 36 months. The study populations of all three of our studies are taken from mothers enrolled in 2 hospitals affiliated with Dhaka Community Hospital in Bangladesh. They were given self-administered questionnaires at time of enrollment and are followed after birth. Child measurements were taken at time of birth, and the biomarker for these studies are cord blood metal measurements. In the first part of this dissertation, through multivariate linear regression, including a metal interaction term, we found that prenatal arsenic and manganese exposure individually associated with lowered birth weight and birth head circumference. We also found evidence of interactions between the two metals, suggesting that joint exposure creates greater deficit in birth outcomes. In the next part, looking at gene-environment interactions, we found significant modification effects of multiple SNPs on the HFE gene that increased the association between arsenic and birth weight. We also found direct effect of less studied HFE genes to lower birth weight. Finally, we assessed the effect of prenatal metals exposure on early growth in children through longitudinal analysis. In following the weight and height of the child from birth up to 36 months of age, our results indicated adverse association between arsenic and manganese on growth.

Abstract:
ABSTRACT Background: Impaired growth and development of children remains a serious problem globally. The role of the family, especially the support and participation of parents are the important factors in monitoring the growth and development of infants/ toddlers. This study aimed to determine the effect of family support on the growth and development of infants/ toddlers. Subjects and Method: This was a cross-sectional study conducted at Kragilan Village, Mojolaban, Sukoharjo, Central Java in November 2018. The study subjects were total of 115 mothers with children aged 1-60 month. Multistage cluster sampling technique was conducted. Dependent variable was growth and development of children. Independent variable was family support. The data for family support was collected by questionnaire. The data for growth of infants/ toddlers was collected by assessing growth chart (monitoring whether weight gain or loss from previous month), assessing length/height-for-age (normal height or stunted), head circumference measurement (macrocephalic/ microcephalic/ normocephalic), and assessing teething chart (erupts/ loss of teeth in accordance with age or not). The data for development of infants/ toddlers was collected by evaluating the gross motor, fine motor, language, and social skills based on child development pre-screening questionnaire. Results: Good family support increases growth (b= 0.895; p <0.001) and development (b= 0.337; p <0.001) of infants/ toddlers. Conclusion: Good family support increases growth and development of infants/ toddlers. Keywords: family support, growth, development Correspondence: Fitria Hayu Palupi.

Abstract:
ABSTRACT Background: Government support has a role in increasing health program development. Cadre performance is important because they are responsible for implementing the integrated health posts (posyandu) program, especially in monitoring the growth and development of children under five. This study aimed to examine the effect of activity level of the integrated health post on the community health workers performance on child growth and development health services Subjects and Method: A cross-sectional study was conducted at 25 posyandus in Karanganyar, Central Java, from August to September 2019. A sample of 200 cadres was selected by stratified random sampling. The dependent variable was cadre performance. The independent variables were education, employment, knowledge, attitude, training, tenure, posyandu facilities, social support, and village government support. The data were collected by questionnaire and analyzed by a multiple logistic regression run on Stata 13. Results: Posyandu cadre with good performance was 50.50%, had education ≥Senior high school was 63%, and working at home was 88%. Cadre performance on child growth and development health services increased with education ≥Senior high school (b= 1.27; 95% CI= 0.24 to 2.30; p= 0.015), working at home (b= 1.41; 95% CI= 0.39 to 2.42; p= 0.007), high knowledge (b= 1.53; 95% CI= 0.56 to 2.49; p= 0.002), positive attitude (b= 1.41; 95% CI= 0.33 to 2.50; p=0.011), had trained ≥2 times (b= 1.33; 95% CI= 0.37 to 2.29; p=0.007), tenure ≥10 years (b=1.21; 95% CI= 0.25 to 2.18; p= 0.014), good facilities (b= 1.57; 95% CI= 0.54 to 2.59; p= 0.003), strong social support (b= 1.28; 95% CI= 0.28 to 2.29; p= 0.013), and strong village government support (b=1.28; 95% CI= 0.26 to 2.31; p=0.014). Posyandu had strong contextual effect on cadre performance on child growth and development health services with intra-class correlation (ICC)= 27.55%. Conclusion: Cadre performance on child growth and development health services increases with high education, working at home, high knowledge, positive attitude, had trained ≥2 times, tenure ≥10 years, good facilities, strong social support, and strong village government support. Posyandu has strong contextual effect on cadre performance on child growth and development health services.

Quak, Evert-jan. The Link Between Demography and Labour Markets in sub-Saharan Africa. Institute of Development Studies (IDS), January 2020. http://dx.doi.org/10.19088/k4d.2021.011.

Full text
Abstract:
This rapid review synthesises the literature from academic, policy, and knowledge institution sources on how demography affects labour markets (e.g. entrants, including youth and women) and labour market outcomes (e.g. capital-per-worker, life-cycle labour supply, human capital investments) in the context of sub-Saharan Africa. One of the key findings is that the fast-growing population in sub-Saharan Africa is likely to affect the ability to get productive jobs and in turn economic growth. This normally happens when workers move from traditional (low productivity agriculture and household businesses) sectors into higher productivity sectors in manufacturing and services. In theory the literature shows that lower dependency ratios (share of the non-working age population) should increase output per capita if labour force participation rates among the working age population remain unchanged. If output per worker stays constant, then a decline in dependency ratio would lead to a rise in income per capita. Macro simulation models for sub-Saharan Africa estimate that capital per worker will remain low due to consistently low savings for at least the next decades, even in the low fertility scenario. Sub-Saharan African countries seem too poor for a quick rise in savings. As such, it is unlikely that a lower dependency ratio will initiate a dramatic increase in labour productivity. The literature notes the gender implications on labour markets. Most women combine unpaid care for children with informal and low productive work in agriculture or family enterprises. Large family sizes reduce their productive labour years significantly, estimated at a reduction of 1.9 years of productive participation per woman for each child, that complicates their move into more productive work (if available). If the transition from high fertility to low fertility is permanent and can be established in a relatively short-term period, there are long-run effects on female labour participation, and the gains in income per capita will be permanent. As such from the literature it is clear that the effect of higher female wages on female labour participation works to a large extent through reductions in fertility.

Abstract:
The agricultural economy is more vulnerable to projected changes in climate in some California counties than in others. This flyer highlights on-farm adaptation strategies to mitigate some of the effects of increased winter temperatures and more frequent summer heatwaves. Projected conditions will put the most strain on heat intolerant crops and crops with high chill requirements. When crops with these characteristics also have a high market value or are grown in large acreage, counties can be at risk for economic declines. Information on this flyer identifies the most vulnerable counties in California Area 3 for some key, climate-sensitive crops.

Child marriage briefing: Zambia. Population Council, 2005. http://dx.doi.org/10.31899/pgy19.1005.

Full text
Abstract:
This brief provides an overview of child marriage as well as the particulars of child marriage in Zambia. This landlocked southern African nation is home to 10.9 million people, with 47 percent of its population under age 15. Zambia is one of the poorest countries in the world; nearly two out of three Zambians live on less than US$1 a day. The country’s economic growth was hindered by declining copper prices and a prolonged drought in the 1980s and 1990s. More recently, the AIDS epidemic has taken a devastating toll: 920,000 adults and children are living with HIV/AIDS, and 630,000 children have been orphaned because of the disease. Child marriage is widespread in Zambia, even though the legal age of marriage is 21 for both males and females. Customary law and practice discriminate against girls and women with respect to inheritance, property, and divorce rights. Domestic violence is a serious problem, with over half of married girls reporting ever experiencing physical violence and more than a third reporting abuse in the past year. Included in this brief are recommendations to promote later, chosen, and legal marriage.
