Child health in war crisis
Overall, the study's findings are in partial agreement with other conflict-region research, notably on disease burden, psychosocial impact, and health system degradation. However, Sudan's context reveals some unique features. Despite extreme displacement, immunization outreach and breastfeeding practices showed higher-than-expected retention. Nevertheless, the weak critical care infrastructure, referral breakdowns, and mental health service gaps …
The association between women's decision-making roles in sanitation and mental well-being in urban Bangladesh
An Assessment of Multipollutant Exposures Using Silicone Wristbands Among Bangladeshi Youth
Residents of Bangladesh are exposed to numerous chemicals due to local industries, including dyeing mills, cotton mills, and the use of biomass in daily cooking. It is, therefore, important to characterize the exposome and work to identify risk factors of exposure. We used silicone wristband passive samplers to evaluate exposure to volatile and semi-volatile organic compounds in a sample of 40 children in the Araihazar upazila of Bangladesh. We u…
Major dietary patterns and carotid intima-media thickness in Bangladesh
Objective Carotid intima-media thickness (IMT) is a validated surrogate marker of preclinical atherosclerosis and is predictive of cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. Research on the association between IMT and diet, however, is lacking, especially in low-income countries or low-BMI populations. Design Cross-sectional analysis. Dietary intakes were measured using a validated, thirty-nine-item FFQ at baseline cohort recruitment. IMT measuremen…
Dyspnoea as a predictor of cause-specific heart/lung disease mortality in Bangladesh
BACKGROUND: The spectrum of mortality outcomes by cause in populations with/without dyspnoea has not been determined. The study aimed to evaluate whether dyspnoea, a symptom, predicts cause-specific mortality differences between groups. The hypothesis was that diseases that result in chronic dyspnoea, those originating from the heart and lungs, would preferentially result in heart and lung disease mortality in those with baseline dyspnoea (relati…
