Obesity is a CVD risk factor that can be m.dulated for m.ssive reduction in m.rbi-m.rtality. Traditional indices m.asuring it have been inconsistent and the m.st com.only used;Bm. has proved inappropriate for Africans, not attending specifically to body fat and its distribution. With the consensus that intra-abdom.nal fat is the m.st critical for cardio-m.tabolic diseases, various attem.ts were m.de to m.asure it for risk estim.tion. These however require costly equipm.nts not easily am.nable for population studies. The abdom.nom.ter conceptualized by BNO has shown prom.se in isolated cases. This pilot study was undertaken in this restricted population to com.are its utility with existing anthropom.tric m.asures of cardiovascular disease.

m.laria was thought to be rare in neonates. However, recent studies report increasing prevalence in neonates. Clinical features of neonatal m.laria have also not been adequately reported. This study was undertaken to assess the prevalence, clinical features and outcom. of m.laria in neonates adm.tted into two tertiary hospitals in Jos, Plateau State. All consecutive neonates aged 0 - 28 days adm.tted into the neonatal units of Jos University Teaching Hospital and Bingham.University Teaching Hospital, Jos were recruited into the study. Giem.a stained blood film. of the neonates were exam.ned by trained m.croscopists. Neonates with m.laria had presenting clinical features recorded and treated with am.diaquine (1st line) and quinine (2nd line). Clinical features and parasitaem.a were m.nitored for 14 days for outcom.. Of the 301 neonates enrolled, 16 had m.laria parasitaem.a giving a prevalence of 5.3%. Congenital m.laria accounted for 87.5% of cases of neonatal m.laria. Plasm.dium.falciparum.m.no-infection was responsible for all the cases of m.laria. ITN use in pregnancy offered som. protection against neonatal m.laria (CI=0.2 - 0.7). The m.dian parasite density was 255 (72, 385) parasites/μl. Fever was significantly present in 10 (66.7%) of the cases (p=0.03). Fifteen of the 16 neonates had clinical and parasitological cure on treatm.nt with am.diaquine. One treatm.nt failure had cure after retreatm.nt with quinine. There was no m.rtality in all 16 neonates treated for m.laria. m.laria is not rare in neonates on adm.ssion in Jos. Fever is the com.onest clinical feature of neonatal m.laria. Am.diaquine provided effective treatm.nt of m.laria in neonates in Jos.
