Background/aim: Vaccine refusal or delay remains a significant public health concern, leading to lower vaccination rates and increasing the risk of preventable diseases.
Patients And Methods: The study included 404 mothers and 413 children, assessing vaccination coverage and conducting telephone interviews with mothers who declined vaccines to understand their reasons.
Results: Children of mothers who supported vaccination were more likely to be fully immunized compared to those with hesitant mothers.

Introduction: Maternal and child health, which is integral to public health, depends on maintaining a healthy diet during pregnancy and lactation to achieve optimal outcomes. This study aimed to investigate the prevalence and determinants of minimum dietary diversity (MDD) among pregnant and lactating women (PLW) in this particular context.
Methods: A stratified cluster sampling approach was employed, encompassing intervention areas (Rangpur and Nilphamari in Bangladesh) as strata, with 30 clusters.

Mammary gland development research in dairy cattle has improved tremendously over the years, ranging from palpation to methods such as DNA and RNA sequencing, histological imaging, and medical imaging. Despite these advancements, limited evidence relating milk production with early mammary development exists due to incomplete and conflicting data. Further, data are typically not collected longitudinally in the same animals allowing for repeated measures analysis.

Skeletal muscle is vital in maintaining metabolic homeostasis and adapting to the physiological needs of pregnancy and lactation. Despite advancements in understanding metabolic changes in dairy cows around calving and early lactation, there are still gaps in our knowledge, especially concerning muscle metabolism and the changes associated with drying off. This study aimed to characterize the skeletal muscle metabolome in the context of the dietary and metabolic changes occurring during the transition from the cessation of lactation to the resumption of lactation in dairy cows.
