Article Synopsis
  • Intensive rice farming in Bangladesh contributes to rising nitrous oxide (NO) emissions, but the fluctuations in these emissions based on time and location are often overlooked in agricultural policies.
  • A study conducted in two regions, Bogura and Cumilla, assessed NO emissions linked to different nitrogen rates and crop residue treatments across various rice seasons (T. Aus, T. Aman, and Boro).
  • Results showed that while NO emissions increased with higher nitrogen use, emissions remained similar across seasons, indicating a need for more nuanced estimations and practices to mitigate climate impacts through optimal nitrogen application and crop residue management.

Article Synopsis
  • Kidney disease varies from infections to chronic conditions and can lead to kidney failure, often requiring transplant as a definitive treatment.
  • The World Health Organization advocates for organ donation to enhance transplantation rates globally, which depend on factors like donation volume and healthcare access.
  • Recent advancements in kidney tissue engineering, including techniques like 3D bioprinting and hydrogels, show potential for treating kidney diseases by creating structures that support kidney cell growth, although further research is needed for effective clinical use.

Objective: We investigated the correlation of lung function parameters with increased body mass index (BMI) and waist circumference (WC) and determined the impact on health-related quality of life (HRQoL).

Methods: We conducted a cross-sectional analytical study at a teaching hospital among 173 individuals. We assessed anthropometric measurements, dynamic lung function, clinical history, and HRQoL using the Airway Questionnaire.

There is controversial data on the impacts of bitter melon (Momordica charantia) supplementations on anthropometric indices. Thus, we aimed to clarify this role of bitter melon through a systematic review, and meta-analysis of the trials. All clinical trials conducted on the impact of bitter melon on anthropometric indices were published until August 2023 in PubMed, Web of Sciences, Scopus, Embase, and Cochrane Library web databases included.
