Maternal and Newborn Care Practices among the Muslim Slum Dwellers in India: Does the Popular Common Sense Matter?
Abstract
Despite a large number of government health programs, schemes and incentives, India is trailing in achieving global sustainable development goals on ensuring healthy lives and reducing maternal mortality ratio, under-five mortality and neonatal mortality. For improving maternal and child health, one of the possible ways could be making sense of maternal and newborn care practices. These practices are dynamic and interwoven in the socio-cultural milieu. Many of these practices have detrimental effect on the health of mother and newborn. There is need to explore, understand and negotiate with maternal and newborn care practices for locating elements of ‘good sense’ in these practices, which could be helpful in promoting better maternal and child health. It is in this context that an attempt is made to describe the maternal and newborn care practices among the Muslim slum dwellers in Hyderabad, Telangana (India).

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
