Effect Of Health Extension Worker-Led Based Interventions on Improving Self-Management Behavior Among Diabetic Patients in Ethiopia
Despite the existence of lifestyle interventions designed to encourage self-management behaviors, the difficulty of adhering to recommended practices remains a widespread issue globally, including in Ethiopia. Traditional approaches to care have demonstrated limited effectiveness in promoting self-management behavior. As a potential solution, a Health Extension Worker-Led club-based intervention has been implemented. Therefore, the aim of this study is to assess the impact of the Health Extension Worker-Led club-based intervention on improving self-management behaviors and glycemic control.
The study will utilize a parallel-group, cluster randomized controlled trial design to investigate its objectives. The main focus of the research is to assess the average increase, both in terms of mean and percentage, in adherence to self-management behaviors and glycemic control. Additionally, the study aims to evaluating the acceptance of the intervention. To evaluate the impact of a Health Extension Worker-led intervention on self-management behavior and levels of glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1C), a difference-in-difference analysis will be employed. A comparison of the intervention's effects across different groups will be conducted using an independent-sample t-test.

Double Duty Interventions and Its Impact on DBM Among Children Under Five Years Ethiopia: A Cluster Randomized Controlled Trial
Background: Double burden of malnutrition is an emerging public health problem among children under-five years due to the inevitable consequences of nutritional transition. Addressing these two contrasting forms of malnutrition (undernutrition and overnutrition) simultaneously brings an enormous challenge to the food and nutrition policies of developing countries like Ethiopia. Children under five ages are more vulnerable to DBM, especially during the first year of their life due to high growth and inadequate diet. Hence, there has been a paradigm shift in thinking to reduce its effect on the health of children. However, interventions that are used to address these different kinds of malnutrition are implemented through different governance and still, they are isolated and disintegrated each other. Therefore, double-duty interventions can tackle the risk of both nutritional problems simultaneously in an integrated approach through nutrition behavior change communication.
Objective: Therefore, the main aim of this pilot study is to assess the effect of selected double-duty interventions on the double burden of malnutrition among children under five years in Debre Berhan City, Ethiopia.
