Abstract Background The measurement of handgrip strength (HGS) has prognostic value with respect to all‐cause mortality, cardiovascular mortality and cardiovascular disease, and is an important part of the evaluation of frailty. Published reference ranges for HGS are mostly derived from Caucasian po...

Concentrations of five heavy metals (Pb, Cd, Cr, As and Hg) in eight highly consumed cultured fish species (Labeo rohita, Clarias gariepinus, Hypophthalmichthys molitrix, Cyprinus capio, Puntius sarana, Oreochromis mossambicus, Pangasius pangasius and Anabas testudineus) collected from four wholesal...

Concentrations of fourteen trace elements (essential and toxic) in the composite samples (collected from 30 different agro-ecological zones for the first time in Bangladesh) of three highly consumed cultured fish species (Labeo rohita, Pangasius pangasius and Oreochromis mossambicus) were measured b...

INTRODUCTION: More than two-thirds of people with dementia live in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs), resulting in a significant economic burden in these settings. In this systematic review, we consolidate the existing evidence on the cost of dementia in LMICs. METHODS: Six databases were sea...

We synthesized manganese ferrite (MnFe2O4) nanoparticles of different sizes by varying pH during chemical co-precipitation procedure and modified their surfaces with polysaccharide chitosan (CS) to investigate characteristics of hyperthermia and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Structural features ...

In this study, we assessed the impact of Land-Use/ Land-Cover (LULC) changes on Land Surface Temperature (LST) in Chattogram Metropolitan Area (CMA) of southeastern Bangladesh. Landsat-5 TM and Landsat-8 OLI images were used to extract six dominant LULC categories and LST over a 28-years period. The...

Acute toxicity of arsenic to tilapia (Oreochromis mossambicus) and its histopathological impacts on gill and liver tissue were evaluated. The median lethal concentration (96 h; LC50) of arsenic (NaAsO₂) was calculated as 28.22 ppm in repeated semi static test method. Fish were exposed to 3 ppm, 28 p...

A 56-day feeding trial was conducted to evaluate the effects of supplemented diets with β-glucan (BG) at four levels [0 (D1), 250 (D2), 500 (D3) and 1000 (D4) mg BG kg−1] on red sea bream, Pagrus major. The obtained results revealed a significant increase (P < 0.05) in final body weight, weight gain...

Abstract Harnessing primary and secondary evidence from India, our essay conceptualizes the cultural dynamics of migration. In so doing, it demonstrates the incompleteness of standard marginalist and Marxist accounts of labor circulation. As a corrective, we examine the linkages between culture, pol...

Biomedical applications of ZnFe2O4 nanoparticle are preferable among all kinds of ferrites due to the compatibility of Zn2+ ions for human bodies. We have followed the soft chemical route to synthesize chitosan and PEG coated ZnFe2O4 nanoparticles and also the chitosan-coated-nanoparticles encapsula...

The initiation of ferrite nanoparticles has changed the perception of nanotechnology in the biomedical field especially magnetic hyperthermia based application. Wet chemical co-precipitation method has been used to synthesize chitosan-coated Co1−xMnxFe2O4 (0.0 ≤ x ≤ 1.0, in the steps of 0.2) nano fe...

This experiment was conducted to study the genotoxic potentials of sodium arsenite (NaAsO(2)) in freshwater fish Oreochromis mossambicus by using alkaline comet assay and micronucleus (MN) test. Fish were exposed to three different concentrations (3 ppm, 28 ppm and 56 ppm) of arsenic and gill, liver...

The lower Meghna River, the easternmost part of the Ganges Delta, faces severe anthropogenic perturbations as it receives a huge discharge and industrial effluents. To measure the metal concentrations and human health hazards, edible tissues of 15 commercially important fish species were collected f...
