Using the theoretical domains framework to identify the sociocultural barriers and enablers to access and use of primary and maternal healthcare services by rural Bangladeshi women: a qualitative study.

In Bangladesh, increasing the use of primary healthcare (PHC) and maternal healthcare (MHC) services is the main focus of achieving the United Nations Sustainable Development Goal-3, ensuring healthy lives and wellbeing for all. However, little is known about the sociocultural barriers and enablers to accessing and using PHC and MHC services among rural Bangladeshi women. This qualitative study aimed to identify sociocultural barriers and enablers to accessing and using PHC and MHC services among Bangladeshi rural women by using the Theoretical Domains Framework (TDF).

Assessment of selection criteria using multi-year study for effective breeding program of L.

Background: Ginger has been an important cash crop with numerous applications since ancient times. As the demand for ginger is ever-growing and being a seasonal crop, a high-yielding variety of ginger would be economically profitable.

Methods: In this study, 150 germplasm were collected from different regions of NE India and evaluated for three years in CRBD design with three replications.

Estimation of genetic variation in yield, its contributing characters and capsaicin content of Jacq. (ghost pepper) germplasm from Northeast India.

Jacq. (ghost pepper), a naturally occurring chili species of Northeast India is known throughout the world for its high pungency and a pleasant aroma. The economic importance is due to the high capsaicinoid levels, the main source for pharmaceutical industries.

The present study was based on 186 germplasm of , which were analyzed for the stability of economically important traits like solasodine content and fruit yield.

Sociocultural Costs of the Long-term COVID-19 Outbreak in Bangladesh: A Systematic Review.

Beyond the physical transmission of COVID-19, the pandemic has had far-reaching consequences in Bangladesh, including social and cultural implications. This review paper aimed at identifying and synthesizing the costs of COVID-19 on sociocultural issues in Bangladesh.

Identification and Registration for High-Yielding Strain through ST and MLT of Roxb. (Jor Lab KH-2): A High-Value Medicinal Plant.

(1) Background: Roxb. is a high valued crop which is extensively used in pharmaceuticals, flavour and fragrances. is recognised as an endangered species due to its extensive collection from the wild through human intervention.

Determinants associated with high-risk fertility behaviours among reproductive aged women in Bangladesh: a cross-sectional study.

Background: We aimed to determine the factors that increase the risk of HRFB in Bangladeshi women of reproductive age 15-49 years.

Methods: The study utilised the latest Bangladesh Demographic and Health Survey (BDHS) 2017-18 dataset. The Pearson's chi-square test was performed to determine the relationships between the outcome and the independent variables, while multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to identify the potential determinants associated with HRFB.

Social and electronic media exposure and generalized anxiety disorder among people during COVID-19 outbreak in Bangladesh: A preliminary observation.

Classified as a pandemic by the World Health Organization, the novel Coronavirus Disease (COVID-19) has spread to Bangladesh since early March of 2020, and people are getting daily updates from the social and electronic media. We aimed at assessing the prevalence of anxiety among Bangladeshi people during the pandemic in connection with social media exposure (SME) and electronic media exposure (EME). For this cross-sectional study, data were collected from 880 participants by a self-administered online-based questionnaire relating personal characteristics, self-rate health (SRH), SME, and EME with anxiety.

Factors associating different antenatal care contacts of women: A cross-sectional analysis of Bangladesh demographic and health survey 2014 data.

Antenatal care (ANC) contacts have long been considered a critical component of the continuum of care for a pregnant mother along with the newborn baby. The latest maternal mortality survey in Bangladesh suggests that progress in reducing maternal mortality has stalled as only 37% of pregnant women have attended at least four ANC contacts. This paper aims to determine what factors are associated with ANC contacts for women in Bangladesh.
