The 2023 fatal dengue outbreak in Bangladesh highlights a paradigm shift of geographical distribution of cases.

In 2023, Bangladesh experienced its largest and deadliest outbreak of the Dengue virus (DENV), reporting the highest-ever recorded annual cases and deaths. Historically, most of the cases were recorded in the capital city, Dhaka. We aimed to characterize the geographical transmission of DENV in Bangladesh.

Medicare Advantage Networks Include Few Black Or Hispanic Physicians, Making Concordant Care Inaccessible For Many.

Black and Hispanic patients who receive care from Black and Hispanic physicians have greater use of preventive care. However, receiving care from racially concordant physicians requires that such physicians are included in private insurance plan networks. Using data from 2019, we examined the extent to which racially concordant physicians are available in the Medicare Advantage (MA) program, which disproportionately enrolls Black and Hispanic Medicare beneficiaries, by linking MA physician networks to physician race and ethnicity to measure the diversity of in-network physicians.

Designing of an mRNA vaccine against high-risk human papillomavirus targeting the E6 and E7 oncoproteins exploiting immunoinformatics and dynamic simulation.

Human papillomavirus 16 and human papillomavirus 18 have been associated with different life-threatening cancers, including cervical, lung, penal, vulval, vaginal, anal, and oropharyngeal cancers, while cervical cancer is the most prominent one. Several research studies have suggested that the oncoproteins E6 and E7 are the leading cause of cancers associated with the human papillomavirus infection. Therefore, we developed two mRNA vaccines (V1 and V2) targeting these oncoproteins.

Purple Tea (Camellia sinensis var. assamica) Leaves and Obesity Management: A Review of 1,2-Di-Galloyl-4,6-Hexahydroxydiphenoyl-β-D-Glucose's (GHG) Potential Health Benefits, and Future Prospects.

Purple tea ( var. ) is a distinct variety of  known for its bioactive compounds, including caffeine, catechins, and a unique compound called 1,2-di-Galloyl-4,6-Hexahydroxydiphenoyl-β-D-Glucose, (GHG) found predominantly in purple tea leaves, which shows potential in obesity management. Studies have indicated that these bioactive compounds play a significant role in reducing BMI and body weight among obese patients.

AnaDetect: An extensive dataset for advancing anemia detection, diagnostic methods, and predictive analytics in healthcare.

Anemia is a critical medical condition in public health concern in tropical and subtropical areas, and understanding its hematological changes is crucial for improving diagnosis, treatment, and prognosis.It manifests through symptoms like weakness, fatigue, pale skin, and shortness of breath due to insufficient hemoglobin or red blood cells to carry adequate oxygen, with severe cases leading to complications such as chest pain. Common causes include blood loss, chronic diseases, and iron and vitamin deficiencies.
