Oral health promotion through schools is recom- mended by the World Health Organization (WHO) for improving knowledge, attitude, and behavior related to oral health and for preven- tion and control of dental diseases among school children.1 Children tend to be more vul- nerable to dental diseases due to social, eco- nomic and demographic factors like lack of awareness and transportation, limited access to professional dental care, lack of perceived need for dental care.2Schools are a suitable place for imparting knowledge to the school children and school children also are receptive to the infor- mation given to them.", "mime": "application/pdf"}, {"id": "hls-1785", "words": "869", "extension": ".pdf", "flesch": "49", "author": "Shrivastava, Saurabh R.; Shrivastava, Prateek S.; Ramasamy, Jegadeesh", "title": "Growth chart: passport to child health care in low-resource settings", "date": "2014", "keywords": "children; growth; health; settings", "summary": "It is designed primarily for the longitudinal follow-up of a child, so that changes over time can be inter- preted.5 Growth chart has a unique role in rural and tribal areas where people do not have access to specialists/tertiary care centers/labo- ratory services readily.3,4 Growth charts help in detecting whether a child is receiving ade- quate nutrition required for the basic physio- logical need of growth and development.3,6 Different types of growth charts have been developed and utilized in varied settings for accurate monitoring of growth of children.3,6,7 Apart from growth monitoring, the chart has many potential uses such as a diagnostic tool for identifying high risk children; for planning and designing of policies at the local and cen- tral level based on extent of malnutrition prevalent in an area; as an educational aid to illiterate mothers by encouraging her to partic- ipate actively in growth of her child; for assist- ing health worker to decide the type of inter- vention needed for specific children; and for evaluating the effectiveness of corrective measures / special interventions employed.3,5,6 To conclude, growth chart is a scientifical- ly sound, robust tool for monitoring health, well-being and nutritional status of infants and young children in different settings.
