Two-year epidemiology of post-COVID-19 conditions in Bangladesh: a cohort study of post-COVID-19 from 12,925 SARS-CoV-2 cases between July and December 2021-2023 in Bangladesh.

Background: Post-COVID-19 conditions (PCCs), also known as long COVID, is persistently debilitating disorders that need investigation on their incidence, morbidity, and case-fatality rate.

Purpose: The objectives of this cohort study were to determine the incidence, characteristics, case-fatality, morbidity, and recovery of post-COVID-19 symptoms throughout a two-year period of observation.

Methods: This was a population-based cohort study of post-COVID-19 cases among 12,925 SARS-CoV-2 positive individuals in eight administrative districts of Bangladesh between July and December 2021-2023.

Symptom response and episodic disability of long COVID in people with spinal cord injury: A case-control study.

Background: Spinal cord injury (SCI) is a consequence of significant disability and health issues globally, and long COVID represents the symptoms of neuro-musculoskeletal, cardiovascular and respiratory complications.

Purpose: This study aimed to identify the symptom responses and disease burden of long COVID in individuals with spinal cord injury.

Methods: This case-control study was conducted on patients with SCI residing at a specialised rehabilitation centre in Bangladesh.

Comparing effectiveness of physiotherapy versus drug management on fatigue, physical functioning, and episodic disability for myalgic encephalomyelitis in post-COVID-19 condition: a study protocol of randomized control trial.

Background: Physiotherapy interventions effectively improved fatigue and physical functioning in non-COVID patients with myalgic encephalomyelitis or chronic fatigue syndrome (ME/CFS). There is a research gap on the effectiveness of physiotherapy interventions versus drug management on ME/CFS in post-COVID-19 conditions (PCC).

Methods: We planned a three-arm prospective randomized control trial on 135 PCC cases with ME/CFS who are diagnosed between 20 November 2023 and 20 May 2024 from a population-based cohort.

Clinical presentation of post-COVID pain and its impact on quality of life in long COVID patients: a cross-sectional household survey of SARS-CoV-2 cases in Bangladesh.

Background: Pain is one of the prevalent Long COVID Symptoms (LCS). Pain interferes with the quality of life (QoL) and induces disease burden.

Purpose: The study aimed to elicit the clinical presentation of pain and determine the relationships between QoL and pain in LCS.

Protocol for a randomized clinical trial comparing the efficacy of Structured Diet (SD) and Regular Therapy (RT) for adolescents with malnutrition having Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD).

Background: Autism spectrum disorders (ASD) have a lifelong impact on behavior, communication, cognitive function, education, physical functioning, and personal, or social life. Separate studies suggest, Therapeutic and dietary interventions are effective to some extent in managing these issues. No study integrated the nutrition and therapeutic approaches and examined the outcome on disease severity, overall health, and behavioral status in ASD.
