    "description": "<p>Introduction: Globally, more than 20 million infants are born with Low Birth Weight and a<br>\nlarger proportion of these concentrating in Asia and Africa. Africa has a reported incidence of<br>\n14.3 %.Children born with low birth weight are more likely to die prematurely compared to<br>\ninfants of normal birth weight. Likewise, these children experience more morbidity, both in the<br>\nshort and long term. Therefore, it is clear that low birth weight represents a heavy burden for<br>\nhealthcare services worldwide.<br>\nObjective: The aim of this study was to assess the prevalence and associated factors of low birth<br>\nweight among newborn babies in Dessie town health institutions, Amhara region, Ethiopia.<br>\nMethod: An institutional based cross sectional study design was conducted to assess the<br>\nprevalence and associated factors of low birth weight among newborn babies in Dessie town<br>\nhealth institutions. The data was collected using a semi-structured pre-tested interviewer guided<br>\nquestionnaire. Data was cleaned manually, coded and entered into Epi -info version 7 and<br>\nanalysed by SPSS version 20 statistical software.Bivariate and multivariate logistic regression<br>\nanalyses were employed to identify associated factors for low birth weight.After bivariate<br>\nregression analysis, variables with P value less than 0.2 were included in multivariable logistic<br>\nregression. Adjusted odd ratio along with 95% CI was calculated to see strength of association<br>\nand P&lt;0.05 was taken as level of statistical significance</p>",
