SILC-MCHN home visits: number of women identified as eligible; number of women who decline a visit; number of visits; timing of visits; and time spent during visits.
In contrast, the detection rate of sambar deer was not affected by livestock encroachment, but sambar shifted the timing of visiting water sources (streams) to dusk (when livestock disturbance and other human activities were lower).
The reasons for this are unknown, although timing of visits by pollinators or some anatomical factor may be relevant.
I used the video observations to validate the APRs by comparing the number and timing of parental visits ("events") recorded by the APRs to the number and timing of visits observed on the videos.
National ANC recommendations vary between countries regarding number of visits, timing of visits and service contents of visits.
Among them, 3,289 children (2.3%) with 81,550 visits (7.6%) met our criteria for minimum number and timing of visits.
One advantage of this study is that the data on the timing of visits and neonatal mortality were collected prospectively.
This study aims to identify factors, demographic, social and economic, possibly associated with three ANC indicators: number of visits, timing of visits and content of services.
Forty-one women made comments in relation to the number or timing of visits, of whom 22% (n = 9) felt they had enough visits.

There were considerable differences between women who birthed in the public and private sectors with regard to the information received and the timing of visits.
