The recent COVID-19 pandemic has imposed threats on both physical and mental health since its outbreak. This study aimed to explore the impact of among a representative sample home-quarantined Bangladeshi adults. A cross-sectional design was used with an online survey completed by convenience recruited via social media. total 1,427 respondents were recruited, their assessed DASS-21 measure. prevalence anxiety symptoms depressive 33.7% 57.9%, respectively, 59.7% reported mild extremely severe...
Abstract Objectives: The study aimed to determine the associated factors of household food security (HFS) and dietary diversity (HDD) during COVID−19 pandemic in Bangladesh. Design: Both online survey face-to-face interviews were employed this cross-sectional study. Household Food Security Scale Dietary Diversity Score used access HFS HDD, respectively. HDD scores derived from a 24-h recall intake 12 groups. Setting: Participants: A total sample 1876 households recruited. Results: overall...

BackgroundBangladesh has made substantial progress in improving socioeconomic and health indicators over the past 50 years, but data on national disease burden are scarce. We used from Global Burden of Diseases, Injuries, Risk Factors Study (GBD) 2019 to estimate diseases risk factors Bangladesh 1990 2019.MethodsFor this systematic analysis, we analysed vital registration systems, surveys, censuses using multistage modelling processes life expectancy at birth, mortality rate, years lost...
Rice is the staple food of Bangladeshi people and consumed at least twice a day. Thus, presence toxic metals in rice grains has become major public health concern Bangladesh. The present research was conducted to investigate concentrations their possible human risks Tangail district Toxic were measured by using an inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometer (ICP-MS), mean samples found order Cr > Pb Ni As Cu Cd. Cr, Pb, As, Cd studied grain exceeded FAO/WHO standard values for 100%, whereas...
This work aimed to investigate the low velocity impact behaviour of short jute fibre non-woven preform epoxy matrix composites experimentally. Dry preforms were developed using an optimised process and a laboratory made preforming device. The effects alkali poly vinyl alcohol (PVA binder) treatments on performances investigated compared at 3 J 6 energy levels. To identify failure modes tested composites, X-ray µCT tomography was employed. results demonstrated that untreated reinforced...

Household security (HFS) (HDD) scores were assessed HFS scale household’s 24-h recall...
Abstract Sustainable hybrid composites, made of two different natural plant fiber types, are increasingly being attracted by composite researchers, for their cost effectiveness and ability to control mechanical performances through varying weight ratios fibers. In contrast, lower properties reported in the literature, because strength variations types an improper fiber‐matrix stress distribution. Therefore, it is aimed develop sustainable composites from dry preforms—woven fabric short...
Abstract Background Abortion-related complications significantly contribute to maternal morbidity and mortality globally. Post-abortion care (PAC) services are essential safeguarding women's rights by substantially mitigating the health risks associated with abortions – a step which is fundamental achieving reproductive health-related Sustainable Development Goals. Methods We conducted secondary analysis of data from nationally representative Service Provision Assessment (SPA) surveys...
