Antimicrobial Susceptibility and Genomic Profiles of Multidrug-Resistant from Nasopharynx of Asymptomatic Children in Dhaka, Bangladesh.

Children carrying in their nasopharynx are at a higher risk of contracting systemic infection. Due to lack of sufficient information regarding such carriage, this study was conducted to explore the prevalence, antibiotic susceptibility, and genomic profiles of isolated from nasopharyngeal samples of 163 randomly selected asymptomatic Bangladeshi children aged from 5-<15 years. Antibiotic susceptibility pattern and genomic analysis of the samples were conducted using standard microbiological methods and genomic tools.

Iron Overload and Breast Cancer: Iron Chelation as a Potential Therapeutic Approach.

Breast cancer has historically been one of the leading causes of death for women worldwide. As of 2020, breast cancer was reported to have overtaken lung cancer as the most common type of cancer globally, representing an estimated 11.3% of all cancer diagnoses.

Clinical features of pneumonia in severely malnourished children with diarrhoea compared to those without diarrhoea.

: Pneumonia and diarrhoea are amongst the most common causes for hospital admission for children in low- and middle-income countries such as Bangladesh. Undernourished children often have more severe infections and a higher morbidity and mortality. : The objective of this study was to determine the clinical features and outcomes of pneumonia in severely malnourished children with and without diarrhoea.

MICROBIAL CONTAMINATION OF STREET VENDED FOODS FROM A UNIVERSITY CAMPUS IN BANGLADESH.

The microbiological quality of street vended food samples from Dhaka, Bangladesh was evaluated. The objective of the study was to identify the presence of common pathogens (Escherichia coli, Shigella spp, Salmonella and Vibrio spp) and to describe the molecular characterization of E coli, a commonly found pathogen in various street foods. Fifty food samples were collected from fixed and mobile vendors from two sampling locations (Mohakhali and Aftabnagar) in Dhaka city, Bangladesh.

Phytochemical screening and in vitro bioactivities of the extracts of aerial part of Boerhavia diffusa Linn.

Objective: To investigate the bioactivities of crude n-hexane, ethyl acetate and methanol extracts of aerial part of Boerhavia diffusa Linn. (B. diffusa) and its phytochemical analysis.

Emergence of Multidrug Resistant Extended-Spectrum β-Lactamase Producing Eshcherichia coli Associated With Urinary Tract Infections in Bangladesh.

The incidence of infections due to extended-spectrum β-lactamase (ESBL)-producing Escherichia coli has been increased dramatically in recent years. Treatment is difficult because of frequent multidrug resistance. To identify the sensitivity of commonly used antibiotics, 36 ESBL producing E.

A comprehensive situation assessment of injection practices in primary health care hospitals in Bangladesh.

Background: Understanding injection practices is crucial for evidence-based development of intervention initiatives. This study explored the extent of injection use and injection safety practices in primary care hospitals in Bangladesh.

Methods: The study employed both quantitative and qualitative research methods.

Antibiotic sensitivity pattern of causative organisms of neonatal septicemia in an urban hospital of Bangladesh.

Background: The information of the sensitivity pattern of the causative organisms is very important for effective control of septicemia in neonates.

Objective: To determine the proportion and profile of pathogenic bacteria in the blood cultures of the neonates with clinically suspected septicemia and their susceptibility pattern to antimicrobial agents for developing a unified antibiotic treatment protocol.

Materials And Methods: A cross-sectional retrospective study was conducted over a period of 3 year and 4 months (39 months).
