Transport-related physical activity (TRPA) has been identified as a way to increase physical activity due to its discretionary and habitual nature. Factors thought to influence TRPA span multiple disciplines and are rarely systematically considered in unison. This systematic review aimed to identify cross-sectional and longitudinal factors associated with adult TRPA across multiple research disciplines. Using four electronic databases, a systematic search of English, peer-reviewed literature from 2010 – 2020 was performed. Studies quantitatively examining factors associated with the outcome of adult TRPA were eligible. Seventy-three studies (n = 66 cross-sectional; n = 7 longitudinal) were included, cumulatively reporting data from 1,278,632 observations. Thirty-six factors were examined for potential association with TRPA and presented in a social-ecological framework: individual (n = 15), social (n = 3), and environmental (n

Objective: Undernutrition is one of the leading causes of morbidity and mortality among under-five children, mostly affecting in the developing countries. Empowerment is an intrinsic agency developed in the affective domain. Since women, including mothers, are the primary caregivers of their children, so their empowerment status can influence children's nutritional status. This study aimed to assess the strength of association between women's empowerment and nutritional status of their children. Methods: Cross-sectional study was carried out among 300 mothers having children aged 6-59 month in rural municipalities of Kaski District, Nepal. Proportion to population size sampling technique was used to calculate the sample size and face to face interview technique was used to collect data. A Chi-square test was performed to assess the association between dependent and independent variables and multivariable logistic regression was used to assess the strength of association. Result
