Published: January 2024

Nutrition education, Nutritional knowledge, Sanitary and hygiene practice Reproductive and sexual ill-health accounts for 20% of the global burden of all ill-health for women and 14% for men (WHO). In Bangladesh, maternal mortality appears to be declining; however, with at least 194 maternal deaths per 100,000 births, the country still has one of the highest maternal mortality ratios in the world and the highest in South Asia. The government of Bangladesh is widely described as consistently supportive of maternal health, despite several recent changes in power. The government has enacted policies in support of maternal and newborn health along with several other policies in their development. However, many stakeholders feel that the policy commitment of the government has not translated into additional capacity or funding on the ground. Here, an attempt has been to observe where we are now and what to do for the achievement of Millennium Development Goals. A quasi experimental study was conducted by a non-government organization (BRAC) to assess the socio-demographic characteristics, environmental conditions, and obstetric information and family planning methods along with effectiveness of interventions on various issues of reproductive health. Most of the respondent was below 25 years of age (58.2%) with not participating in any income generating activities (96.5%). Majority of them (31.5%) did not complete their primary education. Family planning was adopted by 63.8% study population. A very good proportion of mother (71.4%) received ANC during their last pregnancy. A healthy child is the future of the nation which can be achieved by a healthy mother. Still delivery by skilled birth attended is poor. People still far behind to adopt family planning. Intervention programs must focus on sensitizing people on family planning. Therefore, our country will not be in the list of highest maternal mortality country.

This is a cross sectional study conducted amongst 200 randomly selected urban and rural elderly people of age 60 to 90 years. The group of urban sample was selected randomly in Dhaka city. The rural group was randomly selected from villages of Sonargaon thana under Narayanganj district. The location was selected purposively. The purpose of this study was to investigate the dietary pattern of the elderly people. Dietary data was collected by a 24-hour recall method along with a seven days food consumption frequency. AU urban and rural participants were found to consume rice, cooking oil and iodized salt every day. More than half (51%) of the urban elderly people were found to take pulse or legumes 3-6 days per week. On the other hand, half (50%) of the rural elderly people were found to take pulse or legumes only 1-2 days per week. Majority of the urban (74%) and rural (73%) elderly people were found to take small fish 1-2 days per week. A good percentage of urban (68%) and rural (62%) elderly people were found to take big fish1-2 days per week.

Authors: Islam Md Momin , Paul Pappu , Shuvo Saurav Dey , Akter Fatima , Khan Sadiq Mubassir
Published: January 2024

This study attempts to simulate heatwave events over Bangladesh using the WRF-ARW Model that could be used to implement a best practice strategy for predicting heatwaves in Bangladesh. In this research, 17 heatwave events were identified from the period between 2007 and 2022. The thresholds for heatwave events were considered when the maximum temperature from a weather station was above the 95th percentile for three consecutive days. After carefully identifying the events, all the events were simulated with the WRF-ARW model. Simulated temperature, relative humidity, and wind vector (direction and speed) were analyzed for this research. The synoptic conditions were synthesized for all the heatwave events. It was found that the propagation of warm temperatures corresponded to the movement of wind and was aptly supported by the presence of humidity in the region of interest. This information could be used at the operational level for predicting heatwaves.

Depositional Environment and Reservoir Prospect Analysis of Barail Sandstone Exposed in the Northeastern Part of Bangladesh
Authors: Alam Muhit , Rahman M Mostafizur , Gazi M Yousuf , Lupin Janifar Hakim , Zaman Mohammad  Nazim , Lupin Janifar Hakim
Published: January 2024

The study characterized the Oligocene Barail sandstone in the Surma Basin from a reservoir perspective. Data were collected by direct field observations; rock samples were collected from outcrops for detailed sedimentological, petrographic, and geochemical analysis. Collected sedimentary logs are analyzed to delineate the facies associations, sandbody architecture, and depositional environment. A total of ten facies were identified, which were further grouped into three facies associations: FA1: Tidal-influenced multistorey channel-fill deposits, FA2: Fluvial multistorey channel-fill deposits, and FA3: Overbank deposits. Facies analysis suggests that the Barail sandstone was deposited in the tidal-influenced paralic to fluvial depositional settings, and channel body dimensions increase towards the top. A petrographic study shows that these sandstones are mostly litharenite (Q70F4L26) in type, and sediments were derived from quartzose recycled orogens. The average porosity of the sandstones is 16.9%; the pore spaces are of both primary and secondary origin and are mostly interconnected. Porosity distribution in the fluvial multistory channel-fill deposits (FA2)—the upper part of the sandstone succession, is less heterogeneous, while that in the tidal-influenced channel-fill deposits (FA1), occurs in the lower part is more heterogeneous. Both the depositional process and diagenesis influenced the porosity of Barail sandstones. Geochemical analysis suggests that the sandstones are chemically stable and moderately matured. The study demonstrates that the Barail sandstones may be a good petroleum reservoir.

A Review on Remote Sensing Based Forest Vegetation Health Assessment: Bangladesh Perspective
Authors: Sumiya Nazmoon Nahar , Hasan Mahbub Ul , Nusrat Munira , Hossain Md Saroar
Published: January 2024

This paper aims to present a critical review of the published scientific papers that have addressed the issue of forest health in Bangladesh using remote sensing techniques. A systematic review approach has been followed in this study where all the available papers on the application of remote sensing to assess the forest health vegetation condition of Bangladesh were considered for review. That search resulted in the selection of 48 papers. The findings indicate that remote-sensing-based studies have focused mostly on forest cover mapping and change, and landcover change detection rather than assessing the overall health condition of those forests. Also, among the major forests of the country, most studies have been conducted on Mangrove (Sundarban) forests whereas the least number of studies were found for the forests in the Chittagong Hill Tracts Forests areas and those studies were mostly conducted after the Rohingya crisis. Landsat satellite products have been most extensively used for their broader temporal resolution and availability while a few studies have worked with other products like MODIS, Sentinel, SPOT, etc. The application of advanced classification approaches incorporating machine learning algorithms and ground validation has shown effectiveness for investigating the forest or overall ecosystem health in a more detailed way. Although the RS techniques are increasingly used to study the forests of Bangladesh, forest health-specific and indicator-based research is yet to be done which can ensure sustainable forest management.

A Review of the Effectiveness of Educational Digital Game-Based Learning on Students in Tertiary Institutions
Authors: Naidoo Kemone Naidoo
Published: January 2024

The higher institution’s evolution to a more digital era is increasingly making the long-standing learning approaches redundant and ineffective in maintaining student engagement. The digitalization of the educational system sometimes results in a misalignment of the learning approaches with contemporary students’ skill sets and experiences. Many studies have attributed the increase in students’ dropout and poor academic performance to this misalignment in the teaching approaches. Hence, introducing improved teaching methods is essential in uplifting students' learning experiences and academic engagement, contributing to successful student pass rates. Adopting the desktop literary review, the study utilizes relevant literature and theoretical frameworks including The Connectivism Learning Theory by George Siemens and Stephan Downes, The Cognitive Load Theory by John Sweller as well as, a range of theories surrounding the cognitive function in its interrogation of digital game-based learning, and to better understand their effectiveness among our students. This research study aims at advancing traditional conversations in the field of teaching and learning to the role of technology in modern day education, and will benefit educators as, valuable insights on digital game-based learning can be used to promote positive changes in the learning environment, transitioning from conventional approaches such as lengthy lectures in which, according to research studies, was said to be less effective in holding student engagement. The study concludes with a deep engagement and discussion on the positive influence of digital game-based learning on students’ ability to focus and pay attention in learning environments in addition to, processing, comprehending and retaining valuable information, maintaining engagement and increasing memory capacity as well as, improving strategic and critical thinking and problem solving abilities within and beyond the academic institution.

A total of 400 sample subjects were recruited for the study, malaria parasite test was done using the Giemsa thick and thin peripheral blood film, SAA was analysed using the Enzyme linked immune-sobent assay (ELISA) kit while Haematological parameters were analyse using the automatic full blood count analyser. The result of the study shows a positive correlation between malaria infection and these parameters. A mean SAA of 32.76mg/l, PCV of 28.2%, haemoglobin of 8.88g/dl, platelets of 116.54×103 /µl, leucocyte of 6.02×103 /mm3 and neutrophils of 3.34×103 /mm3 was recorded in the positive subjects compared to the 14.11mg/l, 41%, 14.81g/dl, 261.46×103/µl, 8.23×103 /mm3 , 4.11×103 /mm3 reported in the negative patients group, this results shows that there are abnormal haematological alterations in malaria subjects compared to the negative control group, hence SAA and haematological parameters can be used as markers of plasmodium infection.
A Culturally Appropriate Asset-based Juvenile Crime Prevention Pilot: “Wrap and Map”
Authors: Watson Jerry , Washington Gregory
Published: January 2024

The City of Memphis has some of the highest crime and violence rates in the United States. Unfortunately, a portion of these crimes is attributed to our youth population. Crime rates and violence committed by or against youth and/or juveniles is steadily on the rise with the numbers climbing each year. Studies have shown that more than half of violent crimes committed in Memphis are committed by youth under twenty-four years of age (Operation Safe Community). Many children in Memphis live in poverty; this increases the risk factor for youth violence. Most of the juveniles arrested and jailed for crime and violence are minorities, an overwhelming number of these being African American. One intervention implemented by the City of Memphis, the “Wrap and Map” approach, integrated intervention and prevention programs consisting of empowerment and culture based wraparound and asset mapping techniques to support at risk youth. The purpose of this article is to explore and describe this program. This article will explore the demand for this program, its purpose and history, and lessons learned.

ABSTRACT

Hand sanitizer is a hand cleanser which is easy and practical in use. Using hand sanitizer can be an alternative for washing hands if in condition without water and soap. Hand sanitizer is used to clean pathogens on hands. The ability to kill pathogens in hand sanitizers is due to the active substance content in them. In this research, the effectiveness of 2 hand sanitizers on the market was tested. The test aims to see the effect of the active substances in each preparation on the effectiveness of killing pathogens. Testing was carried out using the Kirby Bauer method and on 2 bacterial media, namely Escherichia coli and Shigella sonnei. Hand sanitizer 1 has a composition consisting of 70% ethyl alcohol and 0.5% chlorhexidine. Hand sanitizer 2 has a composition consisting of 55% ethyl alcohol and 18% isopropyl alcohol with a total of 73% alcohol. Based on observations, it was found that hand sanitizer 1 was more effective than hand sanitizer 2. The chlorhexidine content in hand sanitizer 1 increased its effectiveness in killing pathogens.
Varieties of Anxieties: Disaggregating Emotion and Voting Behavior in the COVID-19 Era
Authors: Lall Ranjit , Vilalta David
Published: January 2024

How does anxiety influence voting behavior? Whereas anxiety is usually treated as a unidimensional emotion, we highlight the multiplicity of socially contingent forms it can assume in response to societal threats. Different anxieties, we posit, can create distinct axes of political competition along which anxious voters exhibit widely varying preferences. We illustrate our argument with unique observational and experimental survey data from Spain’s COVID-19 crisis, showing that individuals anxious about the pandemic’s health consequences favored parties advocating stringent lockdown restrictions, whereas individuals anxious about its economic disruption preferred parties opposing such measures. Analyzing municipality-level results from Madrid’s 2021 regional election, we additionally provide evidence that COVID-19 boosted support for pro-lockdown parties in areas more exposed to its health effects and support for anti-lockdown parties in areas more exposed to its economic impact. Our findings point to the importance of disaggregating complex emotional states for understanding the determinants of voting behavior.

The present study was undertaken to investigate the effect of zinc (Zn) supplementation alone and its combination with vitamin E on growth, anti oxidant status and immunity status of new born calves of crossbred cows. The cows were supplemented with Zn @ 0 ppm (T0), Zn @ 80 ppm (T1) and Zn @80 ppm + 1000 IU α-tocopheryl acetate/d (T2) from 60 days prepartum up to 90 days postpartum. The fat, SNF, total solid, protein, Zn and Cu contents content of colostrum showed no effect of dietary treatments but α-tocopherol content was higher(P<0.01) in group T2 as compared to other groups. Total immunoglobulin in colostrum of T2 group was 25.87% higher than control. There was no effect of dietary treatments on plasma Zn and Cu levels of calves, however α-tocopherol concentration at day 5 was higher (P<0.05) in group T2 as compared to other groups. Status of antioxidant enzymes, lymphocyte proliferation index,total and differential leukocyte count was not affected by the treatments. Higher birth weight (P<0.05) was obtained in groupT2 group as compared to other group. Calves from treatment groups showed lower incidence of morbidity and mortality due to calf scour and other infectious diseases compared to control

Published: January 2024

Adulteration of milk fat is burning issue, as traditional parameters for testing its purity are becoming ineffective due to advances in practices employed for the adulteration. Gas chromatographic (GC) analysis of intact triglycerides appears as the most promising method for combating menace of the high tech adulteration of milk fat, since it is simple, rapid, robust and comprehensive. Unfortunately, use of this method in India may cause problem of false positive results due to its specifications of parameters suggested on purity of milk fat. Hence, for adopting the method in India, modifications are required in limits of specifications on some parameters. The modifications in specifications of the method require extensive survey to generate database on the parameters. Outcome these efforts will be helpful to recognise Indian milk fat as pure in international market, whenever tested by this method. Until the method gets official endorsement, Indian dairy industry may avail its unmatched advantages by using it as a screening tool. Since, no comprehensive publication on this method is available so far in the literature; an attempt is made in this paper to collate information on its genesis, development, adoption as reference/standard, basic principle, operational steps, advantage, limitations and evaluation. This review paper serves a navigation tool for concerned scientists and users of the method to understand its fundamental aspects identify reasons for false positive results occur in its use and develop appropriate solutions to resolve the problems as well as improve its application.

Dhap khoa is heat desiccated traditional Indian milk product. It has higher moisture content than other two khoa types (pindi and danedar). In this paper, some important characteristics (chemical, colour and textural) of six market dhap khoa samples were evaluated. Moisture of dhap khoa was statistically highly significant (p<0.001) whereas its fat content was found statically non-significant (p>0.05). Its moisture content ranges from 40.77 ±0.33 % to 43.77 ± 0.15 %. Colour characteristics(L*, a*, b*)of market dhap khoa samples were found statistically highly significant from each other i.e., between market sample group (p<0.001). L*, a* and b* values varied from 81.39±0.03 to84.84±0.55, -5.43 ±0.03 to -4.29 ±0.10 and 15.24 ± 0.12 to 15.96 ±0.02, respectively. The textural characteristics (hardness, adhesiveness, cohesiveness, springiness, gumminess and resilience) of market dhap khoa were found statistically highly significant (p<0.001). Their chewiness was found statistically significant (p<0.01). The hardness, adhesiveness, cohesiveness, springiness, gumminess, chewiness and resilience, ranged from4.58 ± 0.87 N to 11.37 ± 0.15 N, -198.90 ± 4.31 to -139.56 ± 3.69 g.s,0.087±0.001 to 0.140±0.002, 0.05±0.002 to 0.12±0.003 m, 1.04±0.12to 1.58±0.10 N, 0.04±0.0095 to 0.13±0.0034 Nm and 0.019±0.0093to0.028±0.0010, respectively. The characteristics showed the variation in dhap khoa quality in the market and it may be useful for improvisation in process equipment and process parameter selection for dhap khoa preparation.
