Toxic Metals in Dried Marine Fish and Implications for Human Health in Bangladesh and Exporting Countries

Food Safety and Health, EarlyView.
This study assessed toxic metals in five dried marine fish species from Bangladesh. Although most metals were within safe limits, chromium (Cr) consistently exceeded FAO/WHO standards, especially at Kuakata Beach. The findings highlight localized contamination hotspots and species‐specific bioaccumulation, while risk assessment supports the safety and ...

Key soil health indicators under humid grazing lands

Grassland Research, EarlyView.
Soil health can be described using a few key soil health indicators that target a diversity of soil functions. This perspective article highlights how forage management affects these soil health indicators in humid‐zone grazing lands. Abstract Background Soil health describes critical soil functions influenced by land management. Although some key soil

CFD Analysis of Dual‐Layer PCM Roofs for Thermal Mitigation in Residential Buildings

Heat Transfer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study presents a computational fluid dynamics analysis of dual‐layer phase change material (PCM) roofs for passive cooling in residential buildings under the hot and humid climate of Bangladesh. A three‐dimensional transient model was developed in ANSYS Fluent using the enthalpy–porosity approach to simulate coupled heat conduction ...

The association of umbilical cord blood neurofilament light with non‐reassuring fetal status: A prospective observational study

International Journal of Gynecology &Obstetrics, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Early detection of hypoxic–ischemic encephalopathy (HIE) in neonates is critical. We conducted a pilot cohort study to determine the feasibility of collecting umbilical cord blood samples for neurofilament light (NfL) and to assess the association of NfL with non‐reassuring fetal status and other cord biomarkers. We aimed to address (

Integration of contraception provision in emergency obstetric and neonatal care: A scoping review

International Journal of Gynecology &Obstetrics, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Emergency obstetric and neonatal care (EmONC) provides a framework to assess the capacity of health systems and mitigate maternal mortality. Given the high unmet need for contraception, integrating contraception provision and EmONC services could improve maternal and newborn health outcomes.
