Abstract

Abstract Background Passive smoking unfavorably affects pregnancy, child birth and child health. Passive smoking associates with still-birth, premature birth as well as acute respiratory infection, asthma, disorder in red blood cell metabolism in children. This study examined the effects of passive smoking on anemia in young children in Jordan. Methods The analysis based on the information from 740 children aged 0–35 months that were tested for hemoglobin levels included in the 2002 Jordan Population and Family Health Survey. This study used multivariate logistic regression method to analyze the effect of passive smoking on anemia in young children in Jordan, controlling for a number of risk factors and confounding factors for anemia. Results Results indicated that independent of other risk factors and confounding factors, anemia in young children was strongly positively associated with exposure to passive smoking from both parents (OR= 2.99, p < 0.01). Severely undernourished children were at higher risk of anemia independent of passive smoking and other risk factors (OR= 5.29, p < 0.05). Children age 24–35 months, children born to mothers age 35–49, and children lived in households with a hygienic toilet facility were less likely to suffer from anemia. Conclusion Passive smoking from both parents was strongly positively associated with anemia in young children in Jordan independent of other risk factors and confounding factors. The results support the importance of smoking prevention during and after pregnancy that prevent childhood anemia and others morbidities in young children.

Abstract

La generalización en España de la contratación temporal como práctica de flexibilidad laboral ha suscitado un intenso debate acerca de si ésta ejerce un efecto positivo o negativo sobre la productividad laboral; existen argumentos teóricos y estudios empíricos que defienden ambos efectos. En este trabajo conciliamos estas dos posturas aparentemente contrapuestas proponiendo la existencia de una relación curvilínea en forma de U invertida entre temporalidad contractual y productividad laboral. Observamos como el uso de contratos temporales produce un efecto positivo sobre la productividad laboral, pero un abuso lo transforma en negativo. Los profesionales de recursos humanos deberían advertir que cuanto mayor es la utilización menor es la utilidad de la contratación temporal The generalisation of temporary contracts in Spain as a practice designed to bring about labour flexibility has generated lively debate over whether they have positive or negative effects on labour productivity. According to some theoretical arguments and empirical studies, these contracts have both positive and negative effects. In this study we reconcile these two apparently opposing points of view by suggesting that there is an inverted U-shaped curve between temporary contracts and labour productivity. We find that the use of temporary contracts has a positive effect on labour productivity, but their overuse is negative. Human resources professionals should note that the higher is the use; the lower is the usefulness of temporary contracts
