Giving birth to a LBW infant is influenced by several factors. Objective of the study was to measure the proportion of low birth weight babies delivered in V.S.S medical college and hospital, Burla and its association with socio-demographic factors.Methods: Hospital based cross -sectional study comprising of 1030 postnatal women who delivered single live baby in V.S.S Medical College and Hospital, Burla. Selection of study participants was done by systematic random sampling in the study period October 2012 to September 2014. Chi-square test was used to measure association between LBW and socio-demographic factors.Results: The proportion of LBW was found to be 27.76%. The proportion of LBW babies was high and significant in extremes of age i.e. teenage (44.19%) and 30 years and above age group (39.56%) and Muslim mothers (36.36%), illiterate mothers (53.52 %), manual labour...

Such spectrum has significant benefits, but serious challenges must first be overcome. Foremost is the risk of drastic performance degradation due to a lack of incentive to conserve shared resources. Previous work has identified this problem for devices that transmit for longer duration than necessary. This paper demonstrates this problem for devices that always transmit at maximum power to maximize throughput. For devices that can vary transmission power, the problem is solved if devices reduce transmission power when received interference exceeds defined thresholds. We propose a coexistence algorithm to optimize system throughput when each of two such devices can transmit up to the maximum power allowed on a given channel. We show device performance with current unlicensed band regulations is rarely optimal, and that the proposed algorithm is better. I.
