Abstract COVID-19 has spread across the globe with higher burden placed in Europe and North America. However, rate of transmission recently picked up low- middle-income countries, particularly Indian subcontinent. There is a severe underreporting bias existing data available from these countries mostly due to limitation resources accessibility. Most studies comparing cross-country cases or fatalities could fail account for this systematic reach erroneous conclusions. This paper provides...
Abstract Rationale, aims, and objectives The COVID‐19 pandemic of 2020 has overpowered the most advanced health systems worldwide with thousands daily deaths. current study conducted a situation analysis on preparedness Bangladesh provided recommendations transition to new reality gradual restoration normalcy. Method A complex adaptive system (CAS) framework was theorized based four structural dimensions obtained from crisis complexity theory help evaluate Bangladesh. Data sourced published...
Systematic assessment of childhood asthma is challenging in low- and middle-income country (LMIC) settings due to the lack standardised validated methodologies. We describe contextual challenges adaptation strategies implementation a community-based four resource-constrained Bangladesh, India, Pakistan.We followed group children age 6-8 years for 12 months record their respiratory health outcomes. The study participants were enrolled at sites 'Aetiology Neonatal Infection South Asia (ANISA)'...
One of the most challenging aspects COVID-19 pandemic is inability to ensure equitable distribution vaccines fight pandemic. Many governments around globe had prioritize and perform a triage in distributing due limited supply as well lack financial strength acquire sufficient number time. The present study assessed public opinion Bangladesh regarding vaccination prioritization strategy its associated aspects. Due infectious nature viral transmission, used an online survey collected sample...
The COVID-19 pandemic has stretched Bangladesh government's capability for disaster engagement. As normalcy is interrupted, people's confidence in the government ending crisis needs evaluation, especially considering past vaccination successes and growing worldwide vaccine hesitancy amidst misinfodemic. This study assessed level of public life disruption due to at micro-level how much impact it had on trust capacity successful national immunisation.
Diltiazem hydrochloride is a calcium channel blocker used for the treatment of chronic stable angina pectoris as well caused by coronary arterial spasm and systemic hypertension.In spite these life-saving health benefits, this drug molecule has been found to be losing its market value in Bangladesh due side effects relative high price, resulting replacement newer generations molecule.Physicians are finding later also more effective although there several associated with them.Diltiazem was...
Bangladesh, a densely populated country of 166.37 million with an urban population 35.9%, has experienced rapid spread coronavirus disease (COVID-19) since its first officially reported cas...
<b>Background:</b> Exercise challenge testing (ECT) is a widely used objective measure of airway hyperresponsiveness in epidemiological studies which may enhance the precision asthma burden estimates. To our knowledge, ECT has not been adapted for field low-resource community settings. <b>Methods:</b> We tested rural children aged 6-8 years without current respiratory symptoms Bangladesh. On open ground, ran between two bollards placed 10 metres apart 6 minutes. A research assistant followed...
