This was comparable to studies conducted in Berhampur [18], Mengaluru [19], Allahabad [10], Etawah [22], Dezful, Iran [23], Chennai [24], and South East Turkey [26], where males predominated, but distinct from those conducted in West U.P [20], Southeast Iran [21], Central Ethiopia [25], Rural Karnataka [27], and Saudi Arabia [30], where females predominated.
