Impacts of rapid urbanization on long-term water quality of the peripheral River of Dhaka, Bangladesh.

This study was carried out to determine the current state of the physicochemical water quality parameters and the effects of urbanization over 50 years in the peripheral rivers by using primary and secondary data adjacent to Dhaka city. These rivers and waterways had DO levels much below the recommended standard of Bangladesh, and occasionally, they even approached 0. This suggests that the water in these rivers is highly polluted and unfit for aquatic life.

Tracing fluorescent dissolved organic matter (fDOM) characteristics and water quality parameters: Insights from an urban industrial river to marine zone.

This study aims to identify continuous water quality changes and identify fluorescence properties from urban rivers to marine zones. Various types of natural and anthropogenic sources derived dissolved organic matter (DOM) have been identified in this study. These include soil-derived DOM, plant remnants, and soluble particles produced when organic material partially decomposes and is released by microorganisms, such as bacteria, algae, and plants.

The seasonal variation and ecological risk of microplastics in the Lower Ganges River, Bangladesh.

Microplastic (MP) pollution has gained considerable attention in various ecosystems; however, it has received relatively less attention in freshwater-riverine environments than in other ecosystems. The Ganges River Delta, one of the world's most densely populated areas, is a potential source of MP pollution in the freshwater ecosystem. MPs were identified throughout the year in the lower Ganges River water.

Diurnal and seasonal variations of pCO and fluorescent dissolved organic matter (FDOM) in different polluted lakes.

This study aimed to assess pollution and daily-to-seasonal dynamics of the partial pressure of CO (pCO) and CO degassing flux concerning the fluorescent dissolved organic matter (FDOM) from tropical lakes. A membrane-enclosed pCO sensor and water quality multimeter analyzer was deployed to continuously record daily and seasonal variations in pCO and CO degassing flux in three lakes in Savar, Dhaka. During both wet and dry seasons, all lake water was supersaturated with CO in contrast to the atmospheric equilibrium (~400 μatm).

Serum Albumin and C-reactive protein in Hospital Admitted Patients with Chronic Kidney Disease.

Adequate knowledge about the causes of chronic kidney disease and their potential prevention can improve poor clinical outcome in chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients. The study was designed to evaluate the serum albumin and C-reactive protein (CRP) levels in hospitalized patients with Chronic Kidney Disease. This cross-sectional study was carried out in the Department of Biochemistry, Mymensingh Medical College, Mymensingh, Bangladesh with the collaboration of the Department of Nephrology, Mymensingh Medical College Hospital, Mymensingh, from January 2021 to December 2021.
