“…The prevalence of diabetes (8.8%) was similar to the 2003 Algerian sub-regional STEPS survey (10.0%) 8 , lower than national and regional recent estimates in Algeria (≥12%) 10,11 , and the Oman STEPS survey (11.8%) 13 , but higher than in Kenya (2.6%) 14 , and Nepal (3.6%) 15 . The prevalence of elevated total cholesterol (≥200 mg/dL (18.2%) was lower than in the 2003 Algerian subregional STEPS survey (≥190 mg/dL, 45.4%) 8 , higher than in a local survey in Algeria (Tlemcen) (6.6%) 9 , and lower than in Lebanon (65.4%) among Lebanese and 48.8% among Syrian refugees) 12 , and in Oman (≥190 mg/dL, 35.5%) 13 .…”

“…In an urban and rural population survey (≥20 years) in the Wilaya of Tlemcen, Algeria, the prevalence of elevated total cholesterol was 6.6%, hypertension (28.0% in urban and 16.8% in rural areas), diabetes among women (21.4% in urban and 15.4% in rural areas), obesity among women (24.7% in urban and 28.3% in rural areas), and the prevalence of smoking among men was 45.8% 9 . The prevalence of diabetes in Algeria increased from 6.8% in 1990 to 12.3% in 2005 10 .…”

“…Several studies [20,21] noted that people living in urban areas are exposed to a higher risk of hypertension. This could be interpreted in terms of lifestyle changes occurring in these urban areas, including dietary habits such as easy access to fast food and the availability of transportation, all of which contributed to the increased level of physical inactivity.…”

Background and Objectives: Prehypertension and hypertension are the most common cardiovascular disorders worldwide and are increasingly considered one of the most serious public health problems, particularly in developing countries. The objective of this study was to determine the frequency and demographic and socioeconomic predictors of prehypertension and hypertension in the adults in Serbia, and to examine the relationship between prehypertension and hypertension and health behavior determinants (smoking, alcohol use, physical activity) and individual aspects of health (a health self-assessment, multimorbidity, BMI, depressive symptoms). Materials and Methods: The research is part of the fourth National Population Health Survey conducted in 2019, which was conducted by the Republic Institute of Statistics, in cooperation with the Institute of Public Health of Serbia and the Ministry of Health of the Republic of Serbia. As a research instrument, questionnaires were used in accordance with the methodology of the European Health Survey. For the purposes of this research, data on the adult population aged 20 and over were used. Results: Women are at a reduced risk for both prehypertension (OR = 0.328) and hypertension (OR = 0.349) by nearly 70%. Similarly, those aged below 60 years have a lower risk for prehypertension and those younger than 40 years have a lower risk for hypertension (OR = 0.995), whereas people with a lower education have a 4.3 times higher risk of prehypertension (OR = 4.323) and a 1.6 times higher risk of hypertension (OR = 1.614). The poor have a 1.4 times higher risk of prehypertension (OR = 1.413) and a 1 times higher risk of hypertension (OR = 1.035). People with multimorbidity have a 1.2 times higher risk of both prehypertension (OR = 1.218) and a 4.8 times higher risk of hypertension (OR = 4.867). Conclusions: Male gender, lower education, poverty, age and the presence of multimorbidity are significant predictors of prehypertension and hypertension in the Serbian adult population, so preventive strategies should be aimed at these sensitive population groups.

Cet article tentera d’évaluer la performance thermique d’une construction préfabriquée en période d’été, en étudiant les effets de la ventilation et de l’orientation des parois et des ouvertures sur le confort des habitants. Une compagne de mesure des températures et humidité relative internes a été entreprise au niveau du modèle d'étude en pleine saison estivale (trois jours à la fin du mois de Juillet et trois jours au début du mois d’Août 2015). Les résultats seront comparés aux températures externes relevées auprès de la station météorologique de Biskra. Il a été trouvé qu’une bonne ventilation transversale et une orientation optimale ont un effet positif sur la réduction des températures en été.
