These diseases contribute about 14 % and almost 11% of towards all communicable death and DALYs respectively ((( Source from summative assignment))).

Abstract

Malta is situated in the central Mediterranean region. Mediterranean region is known to follow the Mediterranean diet; therefore, the incidence of heart diseases is low. Inspite of that, the rate of coronary artery disease (CAD) is very high in Malta. The latest WHO report shows 27.45% of all deaths in Malta due to CAD alone. Maltese have been following a sedentary lifestyle particularly due to lack of breathing space and urbanisation (dependency on motor vehicles and sitting in front of computers for long). Though standardized mortality rate is decreasing in Malta, it is higher than the rate of old EU ...

Kangaroo mother Care.

Kangaroo Care and Survival Rates
Kangaroo mother care is a method of care for preterm and low birth weight infants involving skin to skin contact between mother and newborn, early discharge from hospital and frequent breastfeeding (WHO, 2003). Despite the limited research into this method of mother care, if continued at home, can it be blended with breastfeeding to boost survival rates among infants?
In resource deprived areas, the Kangaroo is utilized often to reduce on mortality and morbidity among newborns (WHO, 2016). Other benefits are stabilized body heat, regulates child temperatures and improves on breathing of the new ...

The article entitled “About That Overpopulation Problem”, written by Jeff Wise is a new look on global population issues. Wise uses previous research, data and statistics in order to develop a thesis for his work. Unlike most news about population that has been released in the media, this new view is about how the population of the world is actually declining. Although the world has hit 7 billion human inhabitants around march of 2012, the researcher states that we will face a declining world population in the near coming years, contrary to what other people might think. The world’s human inhabitants ...

Abstract

Malta is situated in the central Mediterranean region and is a southern European nation in the form of three islands. Though age-standardized mortality rates are published in reports by the WHO, there seems to be a limitation of epidemiological research in the area of alcoholic liver disease in the region of Malta, which we can very well categorize as an unmet medical need. There has been a slow increase in standardized mortality rate due to cirrhosis from 1998 to 2003, but it is still low as compared to other EU nations. Besides, Malta stood at a lower rank at #51 in mortality statistics ...

HCA 302. Health Care Organization

Introduction
Health care systems are essential in providing security to nation-states world-over, which goes beyond health issues; entire economies depend on such vital system for security. One only has to imagine the devastation of a population by an infectious disease such as HIV/AIDS. Despite having some similarities, health systems vary from one country to the other. Notably, nations design as well as develop their health systems in line with their needs as well as the available resources. The United States and Canada share a border, and thus there is a natural inclination to compare the two health care regimes. ...

About 30000 brain aneurysms rupture are reported every year, causing death in around 40% of cases, as per the statistics by the National ...

My research covers on the topic about overpopulation in sub-Saharan Africa. Overpopulation is a condition whereby the number of the existing human population supersedes the carrying capacity of the planet. This condition is usually undesirable in nature. All over human history, birth rates have always equaled death rates maintaining a sustainable growth rate.
My intention to research on overpopulation is based on how serious this issue is especially on the African continent. Overall, overpopulation poses a big problem in different fronts. It is a major cause of poverty, malnutrition and underdevelopment (Logan, 1991). This is especially so in Sub-Saharan ...

Article "China’s Brutal One-Child Policy"

As one of the largest populations in the world, China introduced one-child policy in 1979. The goal of the policy is to reduce birth rates and stabilize the population growth. However, the controversy that exists behind this policy consists of breaking of some of the basic human rights such as the right over your body. Due to this policy, many families in China are faced with lack of help in the fields and the preference of boys over girls. The violation of the polity leads to severe abortions. This trend leads to large number of male population versus female ...

Demographic transition occurs in four main stages. Stage one is characterized by high birth rates and high death rates. In particular, the birth rate and the death rate as in equilibrium.

How inequality and inequity impacted death rate and government response with the eruption of Nevado del ruiz volcano?

This paper analyzes how inequality and inequity in the developing countries like Columbia contributes to vulnerability during the natural disasters. In relation to Armero, the government failed to provide the necessary information before the eruption of the Volcano. The government failed to provide the necessary facilities and resources to rescue the victims of the volcanic eruption. The unequal distribution of resources in Columbia led to poor action and response to disasters like the volcanic eruption. Poor or little investment in disaster management made Columbia fail to predict the dangerous volcanic eruption in Armero. Columbia failed to allocate adequate resources ...

In the last 200 years, there has been rapid world’s human population growth as a result of high fertility rate, drop in death rate, and unemployment (McCuen, 2013). The current increase in population is due to high fertility rate. The high rate of fertility may be partially elucidated by work force required to perform agricultural tasks. In addition, population increase has been attributed to drop in global death rate since the beginning of industrial revolution. Personal hygiene as well as improved sanitation has made great contribution to decrease in deaths. Moreover, unemployment results to poverty. Poor people spend more ...

Abstract

New advances in medical science and technology have decreased the global burden of disease. However, low-income countries lack the necessary resources to provide for the healthcare needs of all their people. E-health systems have the potential to help low-income countries tap into the richer healthcare resources of more affluent countries, by providing cost-effective tools that can link them to global data management banks, clinical decision support organizations, and care-at-a-distance programs. However, to be effective, these resources must be used with care. The first step in prioritizing healthcare resources is to estimate the burden of disease. High-income countries have reliable ...

Throughout history, slavery was always a brutal, violent and coercive system of forced labor, but plantation slavery in the Americas was the harshest version of all, particularly in the sugar-producing areas of Brazil and the West Indies. Over 90% of African slaves were sent to these areas and the death rate was so high that the African slave trade continued to supply them illegally into the 19th Century even though it had been officially abolished. Aristocratic elites of large landowners dominated all slave societies, which tended to be politically authoritarian in nature. Slavery was also a profitable and expanding institution at ...

The global burden of diabetes is high and the prevalence of diabetes is increasing. Diabetes is a major disease with significant side effects and complications resulting in shorter lifespans. The problem is greater with type 1 diabetes because this type of diabetes cannot be prevented and there is no cure for the disease. However, clinical studies have shown that education, adapting to the disease, and nutritional therapy can reduce the complications of type 1 diabetes. Parents are the most important members of the diabetes management team in pediatric patients and any impact on the quality of life of the parent ...
