The aim of the study was to identify the impact of diarrhoea on the nutritional status (N.S) of children under five years, attending Omdurman pediatrics hospital. Khartoum State. The study involved 60 children (33 boys and 27 girls). A questionnaire was used to collect data; weights and heights were measured for each child and converted to nutritional indices (WHO.NCHS, 1995). The study showed that there was significant difference (p? 0.05) between the nutritional status of children affected by diarrhoea, and the family size, weaning practices and the presence of animals at home for meat, milk or eggs. The result showed that 96.7% of children were affected by malnutrition (Acute, Mild, Moderate). 91.7% of children their age ranged between one day � 2 years , 44.9% of mothers educational level were low,73.3% of them their family income ranged between 100-300 Sudanese pounds , 41.7% were living in scattered areas.77.8% of children were forbidden from breast feeding , milk and juice . 61.7% did not use oral rehydration therapy at home, 41.7% were using smoking (Dokhan) treatment, 93.3%of their mothers used incorrect preparation of homemade solution. The study recommended that attention must be directed towards an environmental hygiene, provided safe water supplies, promotion and continuity of breast feeding, nutrition and health education is needed to raise awareness of mothers to correct the incorrect practices of diarrhoea

In this study, a surveillance was conducted during 2013(February-April) to investigate some police horses (Sawari) welfare conditions. A total number of 90 (83 males and 7 females) horses were randomly selected, in different Khartoum State stables Khartoum (KH), Khartoum North (Almazad, ALZ) and Ummdurman (Almulazmin, ALN Ummbada Janob, UMJ, Ummbada Shamal, UMSH and Almuhandesin, ALH) cities. Blood samples were collected from the jugular vein; samples with anticoagulant (EDTA) were prepared for the total leukocytes count (TLC), Packed cell volume (PCV) and haemoglobin concentration (HB). Blood smears were prepared for the differential leucocytes count (DLC). Sera were obtained for the determination of total protein (TPR), albumin (ALB) and urea (UR) concentrations. The obtained values of parameters examined were mostly within the normal range. Compared to other stables, TPR, ALB and UR concentrations were significantly lower in UMJ and ALH stable respectively. However, the percent of lymphocytes (L) and neutrophil (NEU.) were significantly lower in UMSH and KH stables respectively and that of eosinophils (EOS) was significantly higher in KH stable. The TLC was significantly lower in KH stable compared to the other ones. The PCV percent was significantly lower in UMSH stable. This study revealed that Sawari horses receive appropriate food; however bacterial infection and parasitic infestation adversely affected their metabolic profile and immunity
