Flexible, mother-focused support from community providers may decrease the prevalence of postpartum depression.
Weight loss postpartum, together with pelvic floor muscle training (37– 39), may decrease the prevalence of UI in women postpartum.
Low birth weight may decrease the prevalence of overweight in the group, therefore this factor should be under control in future studies.
If further research substantiates the importance of these variables, increasing activity level, calcium and vitamin D intake, decreasing caffeine intake, and maintaining a healthy BMI may decrease the prevalence of hip fractures in the country.
Participants believed that POC testing may decrease community prevalence of sexually transmitted infections (STIs), and associated morbidity by reducing the time to treatment and infectious period and expediting partner notification.
Breslau and Peterson have stressed that programs that postpone smoking initiation are particularly important because even if they do not prevent the uptake of smoking among all young people, they may decrease smoking prevalence in the long run by increasing the probability for successful cessation [ 25].
Another limitation is the possibility of a cohort effect since those who use marijuana may have other factors that may predispose decreased prevalence of diabetes compared to non-users besides lower BMI.
An oral treatment regimen (single or dual antimicrobials) would be exceedingly valuable and also allow patient-delivered partner therapy that at least in some settings may decrease the gonorrhoea prevalence at population level [ 79, 80].
Case-control studies suggested that patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) do not have a higher prevalence of HP infection [ 3, 4] and the prevalence may decrease with longer duration of diabetes [ 3].
AIV prevalence may decrease with latitude (11 ), or this opportunistic sample design may have resulted in testing of species with a natural low prevalence.
