Objectives: To assess of health protective behavior for clients with stable angina through use three domains' of dietary habits ,physical activity, and Health follow-up, and also to determine the relationship between health protective behaviors and demographic characteristics. Methodology: Descriptive study between November 26, 2014 to July 8, 2015 conducted health protective behavior for clients' at out-patient clinics in Al- Nasiriyah city on. A non-probability (purposive sample) of (N=130) clients were matched with them of general population. The data were collected through the use of interview by questionnaire, which consists of two parts (1) divide, section A. Socio-demographic data which consists of 7-items, and part (2) health protective behaviors questionnaire consists of 39-items distributed to seven dimensions include, domains, dietary habits ,physical activity ,and Health follow-up. All the items were measured on scale of (3) Always, (2) Sometimes, and (1) Never. Content validity of the questionnaire was determine through a panel of (17) experts. Reliability and validity of questionnaire was determined through the implicated the cronbach alpha=87technique of pilot study, and the data was analyzed through the application of descriptive statistical of inferential statistical analysis Results: The study results showed that the stable angina can occur between the age group (60-69) for clients at outpatient in Al- Nasiriyah city. Most of the study sample (60.8%) is male. (84.6%) of the sample are married. With regard to educational level (25.4%) of the study participants are illiterate, (42.3%) of the study sample of a sufficient income to some extent, and (69.2%) live in rural areas, and (56.9%) of them are unemployed (including housewife). As well, the study indicates the presence of a statistically significant relationship between health protection behaviors and marital status, occupation and level of education of the study. Conclusion: Stable angina can happen to elderly of clients at out-patient clinics in Al- Nassirya city. The majority of health protective behaviors for clients with stable angina were adequate and good, except physical activity domain was inadequate and need to improvement due to the aging process, which means that they overall experience health behaviors which increase their ability for self-management of illness. Recommendation: Health education programs should be towards the elderly clients or patients with stable angina for purposes of protect , maintain and promote health especially regarding physical activity domain in all out-patient clinics of the hospitals and the specialized centers. A nation-wide study can be done to add extra of health protective behaviors and can be carried out on large sample size and this characteristics can be used as data base for further research in this is area.

“…Both cohorts had relatively higher levels of homocysteine than those reported for the general US population but levels of folate and vitamin B12, although significantly different between cohorts, all fell within the US norms (Deeg et al ., 2008). The diet of the elderly Yoruba has been reported to be low in B vitamins including folate (Olayiwola et al ., 2012).…”

Background High levels of homocysteine have been associated with increased risk for dementia although results have been inconsistent. There are no reported studies from the developing world including Africa. Methods In this longitudinal study of two community-dwelling cohorts of elderly Yoruba and African Americans, levels of homocysteine, vitamin B12 and folate were measured from blood samples taken in 2001. These levels were compared in two groups, participants who developed incident dementia in the follow-up until 2009 (59 Yoruba and 101 African Americans) and participants who were diagnosed as cognitively normal or in the good performance category at their last follow-up (760 Yoruba and 811 African Americans). Homocysteine levels were divided into quartiles for each site. Results After adjusting for age, education, possession of ApoE, smoking, and time of enrollment the higher quartiles of homocysteine were associated with a non-significant increase in dementia risk in the Yoruba (homocysteine quartile 4 vs. 1 OR: 2.19, 95% CI 0.95-5.07, p = 0.066). For the African Americans, there was a similar but non-significant relationship between higher homocysteine levels and dementia risk. There were no significant relationships between levels of vitamin B12 and folate and incident dementia in either site although folate levels were lower and vitamin B12 levers were higher in the Yoruba than in the African Americans. Conclusions Increased homocysteine levels were associated with a similar but non-significant increase in dementia risk for both Yoruba and African Americans despite significant differences in folate levels between the two sites.

“…Besides these two retrospective methods, weighed records were also utilized, but in a much smaller number; only four studies. Haileslassie et al (2013) and Gibson et al (2008) used only a single day as a measuring unit while Olayiwola et al (2012) and Abebe et al (2008) applied food records for three and two nonconsecutive days, respectively. More detailed information about these studies is compiled in Table 4.…”

“…In Western African countries the most used nutritional programs were ESHA Food Processor Ò (Food Processor Diet Analysis and Fitness Software) (Wiig and Smith, 2007;Huybregts et al, 2009;Addo et al, 2011;Pereko et al, 2012) and C-SIDE (Sodjinou et al, 2008;Sodjinou et al, 2009;Becquey and Martin-Prevel, 2010;Zeba et al, 2014). Several authors used other softwares, such as NutriData, developed in California (Olayiwola et al, 2012), Nutrition Data System for Research (NDSR), developed by University of Minnesota (Luke et al, 2011) and Nutrifiq, based on the Canadian Nutrient File (Alaof e et al, 2009). A very comprehensive software system, named VBS Food Calculation System, was chosen for the Women's Dietary Diversity Project (in Burkina Faso and Mali) (Becquey et al, 2009;Kennedy et al, 2009).…”

“…In studies using a multistage sampling approach, probability proportionate to size method was frequently used in the first selection stage, i.e., in the selection of areas (rural/urban), districts, villages, communities or even quarters. Consequently households were simply randomly selected (Oldewage-theron et al, 2005;Ijarotimi and Keshinro, 2008;Sodjinou et al, 2009;Nago et al, 2010;Amare et al, 2012;Olayiwola et al, 2012) or the walk method was used (Alemayehu et al, 2011;Korkalo et al, 2014), for the identification of the subject that fulfilled the inclusion criteria, within each household. Besides these walk methods, the usage of township maps to more easily select residential areas was also utilized as one of the initial methodologies of the sampling procedure (Hattingh et al, 2006;Oldewage-Theron and Kruger, 2011;Kolahdooz et al, 2013;Oldewage-Theron et al, 2014).…”
