The evidence clearly shows that education greatly impacts people's well-being. Bangladesh has two main education systems-general and traditional religious schooling. The current study aimed to measure the quality of life of madrasa students and find out the factors influencing it. This was a cross-sectional study on a group of madrasa students in the Mirpur area of Dhaka, Bangladesh. Data were collected using two-stage stratified random sampling between April and May 2022. The final sample size was 373. The health-related quality of life (HRQoL) was calculated using the KIDSCREEN-10 index, and the median split was used to categorize the score into 'good' and 'poor' categories. A p < 0.05 was considered statistically significant for all statistical tests. Among the participants, most (56%) reported having a good HRQoL. The median age (IQR) of the participants was 10.0 (8.0-12.0) years. Most of the participants were male (91%) and were not orphans (95%). The current study also found that a higher feeling of safety (AOR 3.7; 95% CI 1.3-10.4; p = 0.016) increased the odds of having good HRQoL. However, having a present illness decreased the odds (AOR 0.6; 95% CI 0.4-0.9; p = 0.10) of having a good HRQoL. The key results show that the majority reported a good HRQoL. Promoting students' physical, mental, and social well-being through health education, anti-bullying initiatives, regular school health screening, and institutional & community involvement can help to improve the overall HRQoL of madrasa students.

Background: To bolster clinical trial infrastructure, there is a need to develop novel, valid, and reliable patient-reported outcome (PRO) measures capable of tracking clinically-relevant changes in Alzheimer's disease (AD), Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI) and dementia over time. This research describes the development and validation of the Alzheimer's Disease-Health Index (AD-HI) as a tool to measure how patients feel and function in response to therapeutic intervention.
Method: We previously conducted semi-structured qualitative interviews and a national cross-sectional study with individuals with AD, MCI and dementia to ascertain the most prevalent and impactful symptoms identified by the participants.

Background: It is well documented that participating in physical activity can help dementia caregivers alleviate stress and enhance well-being. However, few studies have examined dementia caregivers' needs for exercise, and the feasibility of promoting their physical activity amidst heavy caregiving responsibilities. This study compared the participation of physical activity between dementia caregivers and non-caregivers, and examined effects of racial/ethnic identities and other sociodemographic factors on dementia caregivers' physical activity participation.

Background: Dementia is considered a public health problem due to the exponential increase in cases in recent years, as it not only has an impact on health services, but also affects the social and economic level, especially in low and middle income countries. Evidence has shown that a trained caregiver improves the patient's quality of life, reduces behavioural symptoms and decreases the likelihood of the caregiver developing burnout. Currently scarce research has reported on the level of knowledge of dementia, specifically targeting caregivers in LMIC, that's why we aimed to measure the level of knowledge of caregivers attending to monthly training compared to untrained caregivers.

Background: Research on the relationship between self-efficacy and symptoms of depression and anxiety among individuals with mild cognitive impairment (MCI) has been limited. Furthermore, few studies have explored this relationship within the context of dyadic couples (patient/care partners) rather than focusing solely on individuals. The purpose of this study was to examine the associations between self-efficacy in patient/care partner couples dealing with mild cognitive impairment and their symptoms of depression and anxiety using a dyadic analysis approach.
