Prevalence and factors associated with undernutrition and overnutrition among ever-married adolescent girls in Bangladesh
Nutritional impairment during adolescence may result in adverse physical and reproductive health outcomes. We investigated the prevalence and determined the factors associated with underweight and overweight/obesity among ever-married adolescent girls in Bangladesh. We used Bangladesh Demographic and Health Surveys data conducted in 2004, 2007, 2011, 2014, and 2017. A total of 7040 ever-married adolescent girls aged 15–19 years were included in t…
Prognostic accuracy of early warning scores for predicting serious illness and in-hospital mortality in patients with Covid-19
A simple bedside triage tool is essential to stratify COVID-19 patients in the emergency department (ED). This study aimed to identify an early warning score (EWS) that could best predict the clinical outcomes in COVID-19 patients. Data were obtained from medical records of 219 laboratory-confirmed COVID-19 positive patients. We calculated 13 EWSs based on the admission characteristics of the patients. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curv…

Organizational Level Responses to the Covid-19 Outbreak
The outbreak of the novel coronavirus, severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS)–CoV-2, has gained unprecedented global attention. SARS-CoV-2, which causes the newly described coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), has affected millions of people and led to over 1.9 million deaths worldwide by the beginning of January 2021. Several governments have opted for lockdown as one of the measures to combat the rapidly increasing number of COVID-19 cases. A…
Not water, sanitation and hygiene practice, but timing of stunting is associated with recovery from stunting at 24 months
Objectives: To measure the role of water, sanitation and hygiene (WASH) practices on recovery from stunting and assess the role of timing of stunting on the reversal of this phenomenon Design: Data from the MAL-ED multi-country birth cohort study was used for the current analysis. Generalised linear mixed-effects models were used to estimate the probability of reversal of stunting with WASH practice and timing of stunting as the exposures of inte…
Aflatoxin exposure was not associated with childhood stunting
Objective: Chronic aflatoxin exposure has been associated with childhood stunting (length-for-age/height-for-age sd ), while data lacks for Bangladesh, a country with substantial burden of childhood stunting. This paper examined the association between aflatoxin exposure and childhood stunting in a slum setting of Dhaka city. Design: In this MAL-ED aflatoxin birth cohort study, plasma samples were assayed for aflatoxin B1-lysine adduct (AFB1-lys)…
Quality and Determinants of Primary Education in Rural India
India’s achievement in the elementary level of education has been praiseworthy in terms of enrolment. This article tries to examine whether or not India’s performance is equally impressive from the qualitative perspective. It is based on secondary cross-section state level data on the ability of the students to read (vernacular) and calculate. The study identifies the high and low performing states in India and analyses their performance over the…

Prevalence and sociodemographic determinants of household-level double burden of malnutrition in Bangladesh
Objective To investigate the prevalence and sociodemographic determinants of household-level mother–child double burden (MCDB) of malnutrition in Bangladesh. Design The analysis was done using Bangladesh Demographic and Health Survey 2014 data. Multivariable logistic regression identified the sociodemographic factors associated with double-burden households. Setting Nationally representative cross-sectional survey. Participants A total of 5951 ho…
