Backgrounds: Poverty is a complex and multifaceted global public health issue, particularly prevalent in Ethiopia, including the East Gojjam Zone. Previous studies on poverty have largely relied on unidimensional measures, providing limited evidence on multidimensional poverty (MP). Therefore, this study tried to assess the prevalence and identify the associated factors of MP among rural households in selected woredas of East Gojjam Zone, Northern Ethiopia.

Background: To know the level of health locus of control (HLC) and investigate the factors associated with HLC among community-dwelling older adults.
Method: A total of 470 older adults completed the Multidimensional Health Locus of Control Scale, the Activities of Daily Living Scale, the Geriatric Depression Scale, and the Lubben Social Network Scale. Hierarchical multiple regression was used to explore the factors associated with HLC.

Urban stormwater management is crucial for mitigating the impacts of flooding in urban areas, as it plays a vital role in protecting infrastructures, ensuring public safety, and preserving environmental quality. In this study, we develop a new method to quantify urban flood risk (UFR) by integrating the components of hazard magnitude and vulnerability. The hazard is assessed using a coupled SWMM-HEC-RAS 2D model, where the flooding rate calculated by SWMM at each node is automatically fed into HEC-RAS-2D.

Background: In recent years, sodium-glucose co-transporter 2 inhibitors (SGLT2i) have emerged as a valuable treatment for type 2 diabetes (T2D) and heart failure. Despite these medications seeming to be safe in older people, the literature about SGLT2i and frailty is still limited. This study aims to evaluate whether SGLT2i use is associated with increased survival in older adults and if frailty can affect the findings.
