Malaria remains a major public health challenge in Nigeria, particularly among vulnerable groups such as pregnant women. This study assessed the prevalence of malaria infection among individuals with different haemoglobin genotypes attending antenatal care at Zainab Bulkachuwa Hospital, Gombe. A retrospective cross-sectional design was adopted, involving the analysis of 180 antenatal records with complete genotype and malaria test data. Results revealed a high overall malaria prevalence of 63.9%, indicating endemic transmission. The HbAA genotype was the most prevalent (61.1%) and exhibited the highest malaria infection rate (72.7%), followed by HbAS (54.5%) and HbSS (33.3%). Variations were also observed in parasite density, with HbAA individuals showing higher levels of parasitaemia compared to other genotypes. Statistical analysis using Chi-square demonstrated a significant association between haemoglobin genotype and malaria infection (p = 0.004). The findings confirm that haemoglobin genotype influences susceptibility to malaria, with HbAS and HbSS offering some protective advantage. The study underscores the need for targeted malaria control strategies and the integration of genotype screening in antenatal care to improve maternal health outcomes.

This article presents a comprehensive assessment of the PEP integrated within ECCD centre programmes in Bhutan. Drawing on data from a nationwide survey of 514 ECCD facilitators, complemented by qualitative insights from field observations and stakeholder interviews, the study examines implementation patterns, content relevance, observed impacts and persistent challenges. Findings indicate that 85.4 per cent of centres conduct parenting sessions regularly, demonstrating strong institutional commitment to parent-focused engagement. However, 91.2 per cent of centres have never delivered the full 16-session programme, with key barriers including lengthy sessions, irregular scheduling and parental socio-economic constraints. Programme content was rated as highly relevant, culturally sensitive and accessible by nearly 89 per cent of facilitators. Observable positive behavioural outcomes among participating families included improved hygiene and sanitation practices (64.9 per cent), enhanced nutrition (62.9 per cent), better parent–child communication (61.7 per cent), and a notable reduction in corporal punishment (27 per cent). The study concludes that while the programme represents a strategically significant and culturally responsive initiative, its full potential remains unrealised due to structural misalignments between curriculum design and the lived realities of families. Recommendations include curriculum adaptation into flexible modular formats, scheduling adjustments, strengthened facilitator support and robust monitoring systems.

Deadwood is a critical structural and functional component of forest ecosystems, influencing biodiversity, carbon storage, and nutrient cycling. This study examined spatial heterogeneity in deadwood structure across multiple forest blocks, focusing on snag type distribution, diameter variability, species composition, and associated wildlife observations. Significant variation among sites suggests that deadwood dynamics are strongly shaped by local disturbance regimes, stand age, species composition, and anthropogenic influences. Blocks dominated by stumps likely reflect advanced decomposition stages or historical structural collapse, whereas sites with higher proportions of full snags indicate recent mortality events or greater structural persistence. The presence of extremely large snags highlights the ecological importance of legacy trees, which contribute disproportionately to carbon storage and long-term structural stability. However, weak correlations between maximum girth and wildlife use suggest that decay stage and cavity development are stronger determinants of ecological function than size alone. Higher species diversity in snag formation was associated with increased structural complexity, potentially enhancing ecosystem resilience by supporting diverse decomposer communities and extending temporal continuity of deadwood availability. This study surveys 187 snags across five forest blocks to analyze species composition, structural decay stages, and evidence of wildlife use. Statistical analysis reveals that while Anogeissus pendula is the most frequent snag-forming species, larger diameter snags like Terminalia bellirica and Mitragyna parviflora show higher instances of specialized wildlife use, such as nesting and cavity formation.

Clean water is essential for health, yet in many rural areas of Malawi, people judge water quality based on appearance or taste rather than actual contamination levels. This study investigates the mismatch between how rural residents perceive the safety of their water sources and what laboratory results reveal about water quality. Using a mixed methods design, we combined household surveys from 39 respondents in Dedza District with laboratory analysis of eight water sources (boreholes, shallow wells, rivers, and taps). Although 92% of households believed their water was safe, microbial testing revealed widespread contamination with total coliform counts up to 286 CFU/100 mL and fecal coliforms detected in 75% of samples. Chemical parameters such as pH and total dissolved solids were within acceptable limits, showing that contaminants were mainly biological and invisible to the eye. The findings demonstrate a strong perception–reality gap: residents trust clear, “natural” water but underestimate microbial risks. Awareness campaigns and community level testing are necessary to align perceptions with scientific reality and encourage safe household water practices.
