Venom-spit ophthalmia: A novel envenomation of Monocled Cobra (Naja kaouthia).

Handling venomous snakes poses a significant risk of envenomation. In the case of spitting cobras, additional precautions, like wearing face shields, are necessary to prevent ophthalmic envenomation. Although, the Monocled Cobra (Naja kaouthia) is not a true spitting cobra, however some spitting events has been reported from Northeastern India and Nepal but ocular envenomation is scarce.

Stage-specific pharmacodynamic chloroquine and pyronaridine action on artemisinin ring-stage resistant Kelch C580Y mutation correlates to hemozoin inhibition process.

The antimalarial quinolines pyronaridine and chloroquine both inhibit hemozoin crystallization, predominately produced by intra-erythrocytic trophozoite stage parasites. Pyronaridine extends activity to ring-stage chloroquine-sensitive parasites, in contrast to chloroquine. Here, we investigated chloroquine and pyronaridine hemozoin inhibition type correlated to stage-specific activity on chloroquine-resistant ring-stage artemisinin sensitive and resistant CamWT and CamWT-C580Y parasites.

lineage and pangenome diversity varies geographically across Bangladesh over one year.

Cholera is a diarrhoeal disease caused by . It remains a major public health challenge in the endemic region around the Bay of Bengal. Over decadal time scales, one lineage typically dominates the others and spreads in global pandemic waves.

Evaluation of the causal effect of maternal education on the utilisation of maternal health services in Bangladesh using an observational study - a comparison of different propensity score methods and covariate adjustment.

Background: Assessing maternal health care utilisation is imperative for the health of both mother and her child. Maternal education is an important determinant in subsequent maternal health care usage, according to research. There is a dearth of research on the causal relationship between maternal education and maternal health services as well as examining the performance of different propensity score methods for estimating absolute effects.
