确定流浪儿童中嗅胶的流行率。
采用描述性横断面研究设计。
儿童是希望的源泉，他们可能是社会、国家和世界发展的主要障碍，但有大量的儿童在街上吸食胶水，同时患有多种疾病，前途未卜。
在尼泊尔巴托勒市的 52 名流浪儿童中进行了一项研究，以确定嗅胶者的流行率及其对流浪儿童的影响。本研究在 52 名流浪儿童中进行，采用 5 点李克特量表和访谈表，在结构化和半结构化问卷的帮助下收集数据。最后，使用描述性统计方法（如频率、百分比和平均值）对收集的数据进行分析。
研究结果表明，大量儿童（即 40.38%）年龄在 9-12 岁之间，92.31%为男性。流浪儿童中目前嗅胶的流行率为 88.46%。同样，58.7%的受访者在 1 年前开始嗅胶。在 46 名嗅胶的受访者中，89.13%不知道其影响。近一半（45.65%）的受访者出现头痛、胸痛和胃痛等健康问题。
他们剥夺了儿童的权利，不仅剥夺了他们作为儿童的权利，也剥夺了他们正常的童年。没有指导、教育和安全，他们将走向不确定的未来。如果他们被带入一个更好的环境，他们就有足够的潜力和才能，也许对光明的未来有真正的希望。
