Undernutrition and associated factors among lactating mothers in Chiro district, eastern Ethiopia: a community-based cross-sectional study
Maternal undernutrition during lactation is a worldwide public health problem. It causes impaired cognitive ability, poor productivity, irreversible loss, and intergenerational malnutrition, which has harmful effects on the next generation. Overall, there is little information on undernutrition and risk factors among lactating mothers, especially in resource-poor settings, including Ethiopia. This study assessed undernutrition and associated factors among lactating mothers in rural Chiro district, eastern Ethiopia. A community-based cross-sectional study was conducted among 629 lactating mothers in the Chiro district from July 2-30, 2019. Data were collected from participants using pretested, structured questionnaires and anthropometric measurements. Data were entered using EpiData version 3.1 and analyzed using SPSS version 27. Multivariable logistic regression analyses were used to identify factors associated with undernutrition. Undernutrition among lactating mothers was 26.9% (95% CI: 23.2%, 30.2%). Female-headed household (AOR = 0.34, 95% CI:0.13, 0.94), medium (AOR = 0.58, 95% CI: 0.38, 0.95) and rich (AOR = 0.30, 95% CI: 0.18, 0.51) wealth quintiles, lack of dietary advice (AOR = 1.62, 95% CI: 1.10, 2.39), chewing khat (AOR = 1.82, 95% CI: 1.23, 2.70), low dietary diversity (AOR = 3.10, 95% CI: 1.82, 5.29), and household food insecurity (AOR = 3.67, 95% CI:1.47, 9.20) were factors significantly associated with undernutrition. Around one in every four lactating mothers in rural eastern Ethiopia had undernutrition. Poor wealth, lack of dietary feeding advice, substance use disorder, low minimum dietary diversity, and household food insecurity were factors significantly associated with the undernutrition of lactating mothers. Thus, focusing on implementing existing strategies/programs for effective nutritional interventions and poverty alleviation that enhance food security status would be essential to improving the nutritional status of lactating mothers and children.
Antiplasmodial Activity of the Crude Extract and Solvent Fractions of Stem Barks of Gardenia ternifolia in Plasmodium berghei-Infected Mice
Background. The evolution of resistance to currently used malaria medicines together with the severe economic burden of malaria initiates the search for novel antimalarial drugs. Thus, the present experiment was intended to assess the in vivo antiplasmodial effect of Gardenia ternifolia based on the traditional claims and in vitro antimalarial effect of the plant. Methods. For the crude extraction of stem barks of G. ternifolia, a cold maceration method using hydromethanol as a solvent was employed. The hydroalcoholic extract was then fractionated by three solvents (chloroform, n-butanol, and aqueous solvent) with different polarity indexes. Swiss albino mice infected with the chloroquine-sensitive malaria parasite (Plasmodium berghei) were used in this study. Acute oral toxicity study was done according to standard protocols. Four-day suppressive (hydromethanolic crude extract and solvent fractions), Rane’s (crude extract), and repository (crude extract) tests were used to examine the antiplasmodial effects of the study plant. Results. The chemosuppressive study revealed that all doses of the crude extract and its fractions displayed a significant P<0.001 inhibition of parasitemia compared with the vehicle (negative control). The crude extract’s highest dose (600 mg/kg) showed the maximum (57.84%) parasitemia suppression during the chemosuppressive test. The crude extract also produced significant P<0.001 curative and prophylactic effects at all doses in Rane’s and repository tests compared with the negative control. In the 4-day test, the n-butanol fraction produced parasitemia suppression higher than the chloroform fraction but lower than the crude extract. Of these, water fractions demonstrated the lowest chemosuppressive effect. Anthraquinone, alkaloids, flavonoids, saponins, steroids, tannins, and terpenoids were qualitatively detected in the plant material. Conclusion. The current results showed that the hydromethanolic extract and fractions of G. ternifolia stem barks have antiplasmodial action with a high curative effect. Chloroform and n-butanol fractions were more active among the fractions, indicating that the nonpolar and semipolar constituents of the plant are responsible for the antimalarial effects.

How Billie Eilish Influenced the Music of Disclaimer: Finneas, her brother and producer, and the Attacca Quartet open up about strings theory on the Apple TV+ series
Finneas, her brother and producer, and the Attacca Quartet open up about strings theory on the Apple TV+ series At the 2020 Grammys, Finneas won his firstever honors - six to be exact - for his work on his baby sister Billie Eilish's debut album, When We All Fall Asleep, Where Do We Go?, making him the most awarded artist of the night. Together at the Grammy Museum - where the Los Angeles-born Finneas and Eilish attended youth programs throughout their childhood - the Oscar-winning composer and the string quartet (Amy Schroeder, Andrew Yee, Nathan Schram, Domenic Salerni) discuss working together on the TV series and how Eilish's album was partly inspired by it. FINNEAS Seriously, what a night-and-day experience, the MIDI versions of the strings in Disclaimer, the MIDI versions of the strings for Billie's album, versus hearing these amazing musical humans play them, it's really amazing. SCHRAM Were there ever any scenes that you felt like he would ask for music and you felt like it didn't need music, or vice versa, where you saw a scene that needed music but he hadn't asked for it? FINNEAS I scored a couple scenes that were kind of Hail Mary-like. Billie has talked about how you both were experiencing writer's block, and creating \"What Was | Made For?\" for Barbie changed things for you. [...]they told the other 20 people to make as many pots as they could in an hour. [...]all of the most symmetrical pots were in that pile.

Deep Breath: In a rare interview, flutist, actor and genre buster André 3000 talks Grammys, rap and Beyoncé
New Blue Sun was nominated for album of the year, best alternative jazz album and best instrumental composition; 3000 won the top prize in 2004 with Big Boi for OutKast's Speakerboxxx/The Love Below. Even with Showing Up [a 2022 comedy-drama feature], which has flute sounds in it as well, I was actually an actor in the film, and when we had downtime, I would be playing on set. The way people process music, the way they get to it, the categories are a thing, but we're all influenced by so much across the board that it starts to blur lines.

The Loophole That Landed Muni Long a Grammy
Awards THE DOWNLOAD If not for a live version of 'Made for Me, the singer-songwriter who has penned hits for Rihanna and Selena Gomez would have missed her moment BY MESFIN FEKADU Muni Long's \"Made for Me\" reached platinum status, hit the No. 1 spot on R&B/hip-hop radio and, much like her breakthrough groove \"Hrs & Hrs,\" went viral on TikTok - with users posting hilarious and playful videos to the lyric, \"Twin, where have you been?\" It was inevitable that the R&B song of the year would be showered with Grammy nominations. Long posted about the bad news on social media - a video of herself lying on the floor in distress with the caption: \"When management tells you 'Made for Me isn't eligible for any Grammys.\" The sheer volume that I have to write in order to make an income that makes sense [is insane].
