Undernutrition and associated factors among prisoners in Bahir Dar Zone Prison Center, Northwest Ethiopia, 2021.

Purpose: This study aims to assess undernutrition and associated factors among prisoners in Bahir Dar Zone Prison Center, Ethiopia, in 2021.

Design/methodology/approach: An institution-based cross-sectional study was conducted among randomly selected 582 prisoners from October 1 to October 30, 2021. An interviewer-administered, semistructured questionnaire was used to collect the required data.

The impact of heat source and chemical reaction on MHD blood flow through permeable bifurcated arteries with tilted magnetic field in tumor treatments.

In this research work, we investigate the influence of heat source and chemical reaction on electro-magneto-hydrodynamic (EMHD) blood flow through bifurcated arteries with external tilted magnetic field for treating tumor. The potential electric field applied along the bifurcated arterial wall, accurately described the Poisson-Boltzmann equation. We modeled the EMHD blood flow to obtain the non-dimensionalized form of the equations.

Prevalence of left ventricular diastolic dysfunction in newly diagnosed Nigerians with systemic hypertension: a pulsed wave Doppler echocardiographic study.

Background: Systemic hypertension is a common cause of left ventricular diastolic dysfunction. However, its prevalence in Nigerians with untreated systemic hypertension is unknown.

Objective: To determine the prevalence of left ventricular diastolic dysfunction in newly diagnosed Nigerians with systemic hypertension using Doppler transmitral inflow and pulmonary venous flow velocities.
