The price of equality
Out-of-pocket (OOP) expenditures for childbirth in Bangladesh have increased substantially, intensifying financial pressure on lower-income households. While wealthier groups historically bore higher delivery costs, recent trends indicate a narrowing gap in spending across socioeconomic strata. This study investigates the drivers of this convergence in delivery-related expenditures between 2014 and 2022, distinguishing between demographic shifts …

Women’s empowerment and health
Women’s empowerment may influence non-communicable disease (NCD) risk. However, evidence on these associations among women in Bangladesh remains limited. This study examined the associations between women’s empowerment and the prevalence of selected non-communicable conditions among ever-married reproductive-aged women in Bangladesh. Data from the 2022 Bangladesh Demographic and Health Survey were analyzed. Women’s empowerment was assessed using …
Unhealthy food consumption and its determinants among children aged 6–23 months in Bangladesh
The study highlights Bangladeshi children's high prevalence of UFC, which demands public health interventions together with integrating behavior change communication into health, community and family-level services
The prevalence and influencing factors of coexisting prediabetes and prehypertension among Bangladeshi adults
The coexistence of prediabetes and prehypertension is an early sign of a greater burden of noncommunicable diseases (NCDs) in the near future for Bangladesh. To reduce the higher burden of NCDs, our findings call for a multisectoral approach to identify the precondition of NCDs with particular attention to maintaining body weight
Maternal health status and household food security on determining childhood anemia in Bangladesh -a nationwide cross-sectional study
Future public health policies need to focus on improving mothers' health with focusing on household food security to eliminate childhood anemia

Prevention of Cardiovascular Disease and Cancer Mortality by Achieving Healthy Dietary Goals for the Swedish Population
The objective is to estimate the number of deaths attributable to cardiovascular diseases and diet-related cancers that could be prevented or delayed in Sweden if adults adhere to the official dietary recommendations. We used an age-group and sex-specific epidemiological macro-simulation model to estimate preventable deaths due to the discrepancies between actual intake and recommended intake of changes in food components. Data included in the mo…

Valuing a Lifestyle Intervention for Middle Eastern Immigrants at Risk of Diabetes
Willingness-to-pay (WTP) techniques are increasingly being used in the healthcare sector for assessing the value of interventions. The objective of this study was to estimate WTP and its predictors in a randomized controlled trial of a lifestyle intervention exclusively targeting Middle Eastern immigrants living in Malmö, Sweden, who are at high risk of type 2 diabetes. We used the contingent valuation method to evaluate WTP. The questionnaire wa…
Economic Burden of Obesity
Background: The rising prevalence of obesity represents an important public health issue. An assessment of its costs may be useful in providing recommendations for policy and decision makers. This systematic review aimed to assess the economic burden of obesity and to identify, measure and describe the different obesity-related diseases included in the selected studies. Methods: A systematic literature search of studies in the English language wa…
What socioeconomic factors are associated with different levels of antenatal care visits in Bangladesh? A behavioral model
We identify the socioeconomic determinants of three levels of antenatal care (ANC) visits (no, intermediate [1-3], and recommended [≥4]) in Bangladesh using a behavior model framework for health care utilization. Using multinomial logistic regression, we found that different levels of visits had different determinants; for example, media exposure increased the likelihood of intermediate compared with no visits while desire for pregnancy increased…
Ethnomedicinal survey of various communities residing in Garo Hills of Durgapur, Bangladesh
