Childhood malnutrition remains one of the major underlying causes of morbidity and mortality among younger children particularly from lower and mid income countries (LMIC) like Bangladesh.\u0000Objective: To identify determinants of practicing inappropriate complementary feeding (CF) among the infants and young children and to find out if these CF-determinants are associated with socio-demographic characteristics of child‟s families.\u0000Methods: This cross-sectionally designed study hybrid with some analytical methods were conducted among 6-24 months old children attending the out-patient and indoor departments of Pediatric, Institute of Child and Mother Health (ICMH).\u0000Results: Of total 273 children, only 20% received CF appropriately but 80% got it „inappropriately‟ based on all parameters studied, on an average. Good CF practice were significantly associated with child‟s age group (P<0.01), gender (0.02), parental education (<0.01) and monthly income (<0.01). None of the factors like time of starting CF (right after 6 months), type of food groups (carbohydrate, protein, fat, vegetables, vitamin) introduced to young children were not associated with any of 6 types of major food groups, significantly, except for citrous fruits (p>0.01). Frequency of feeding per day was also not significantly associated with CF-feeding practice (p>0,83). Similarly, none of the consistency of food (p>0.95), its amount (p>0.28), feeding technique (p>0.72) and mother‟s motivation for child‟s self-feeding (p>0.27) were not significantly associated with CF practices. Most common reason for delayed CF was „tried but failed‟ in 53% and „did not know‟ the reason exactly in 10.5%. However, 10.5% mother‟s felt that breast milk was enough for the child to feed, early starting of CF being mothers‟ insuflcient breast milk in 63% and the rest 24% were ignorant on earlier starting the CF.\u0000Conclusions: Major findings of this study revealed that factors like, gender, paternal education, monthly family income, citrus food significantly differed between appropriate and inappropriate CF practices. However we strongly recommend further muti-center studies involving larger sample size before refuting or accepting our findings that this study yielded based in one hospital set up only.\u0000The Journal of Ad-din Women's Medical College; Vol. 10 (1), Jan 2022; p 21-27","PeriodicalId":243193,"journal":{"name":"The Journal of Ad-din Women's Medical College","volume":"6 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-07-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116920759","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Data were collected by interviewing the with a structured pre-tested questionnaire.\u0000Place and Period of Study: The study was conducted at Obstetrics department of the Ad-Din Barrister Rafiquil-Huq Hospital, Jurain, Dhaka and Bashundhara Ad-Din Medical College Hospital South Keranigonj, Dhaka during November 2019 to February 2020.\u0000Results: Most of the respondents (38.2%) belonged between 16-20 years age group. The mean age was 23.74±5.127 years. Almost (49.1%) up to primary & (38.2%) were up to secondary/higher secondary level. Most of the respondents were homemaker (87.3%); Monthly family income means was 19340.91±12459.647. More than one third (37.3%) of the respondents were from low income family followed by 40.9% by middle income and high income family (21.8%).  Age at marriage mean 17.79±3.400 and age at the time of first conception mean 20.12±3.173 years. Most (90.9%) of the respondents had received ANC during pregnancy.

NAFLD has been linked with adverse pregnancy outcome. The prevalence of NAFLD among women in childbearing age is 10%. During pregnancy both physiologic and pathologic fluctuation in estrogen as well as rapid weight gain plays an important role in the development of NAFLD in mother and infant.\u0000Objective: To find out clinical and laboratory profile and pregnancy outcome of patients with fatty liver disease.\u0000Methods: We conducted this observational study between January through December 2017 in (pro-women, pro-poor) Ad-din Women Medical College Hospital in Maghbazar, Dhaka, Bangladesh. We enrolled 103 pregnant women who signed the consent (verbal) to participate in the study. Demographic and clinical information was collected using a pre-tested questionnaire.\u0000Results: Mean age of the patients was 27 years. During first trimester 18 patients were enrolled, 32 in second and 53 in third trimesters. Of 103, 3 (2.91%) patients had known history of fatty liver disease, 11 (10.68%) had hypertension, 11 (10.68%) had Gestational Diabetes Mellitus (GDM) but none had previous history of Diabetes Mellitus (DM). Among all, 8 (7.76%) patients had previous pregnancy related complications and 32 (31%) had foetal complications including still birth, abortion, neonatal death and Intrauterine Device (IUD). Beside, 92 (89.3%) had grade 1, 10 (9.7%) had grade 2 and one (0.97%) patient had grade 3 fatty liver. 35 (32.4%) patients had high Fasting Blood Sugar level and 26 (24.1%) patients had positive Oral Glucose Tolerance Test (OGTT).

It takes a lot of time, effort, and patience to meet the extra care needs of the aflicted children. This often causes their parents to experience psychological distress, depression, and other mental health issues. Therefore, we designed the study to investigate the caregiver burden and psychological distress among parents of children with ASD and the associated sociodemographic factors influencing parental burden. This descriptive, cross-sectional study was conducted with parents of 180 children with ASD in three tertiary hospitals in Dhaka, Bangladesh. A pre-validated structured questionnaire was used to collect data, and the caregiver burden was assessed using Zarit Burden Interview and scored to estimate the burden level. The mean age of the children in the sample group was 4.68 ± 0.96 years; 62.8% were boys. Nearly half of the children (46.1%) were diagnosed with ASD in the second year of birth, and comorbidities were present in 31.7%. It was determined that the burden level was significantly higher among mothers of children with ASD than fathers (p<0.01). Single parents experienced higher (p<0.05) psychological distress than those who were married. Spending long hours on caregiving resulted in poorer caregiving outcomes and increased parenting stress (p<0.05). The findings highlight the urgent need for the development of interventions and social support systems to help the parents of children with ASD combat mental health issues.\u0000The Journal of Ad-din Women's Medical College; Vol. 10 (1), Jan 2022; p 12-20   ","PeriodicalId":243193,"journal":{"name":"The Journal of Ad-din Women's Medical College","volume":"3 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-07-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116178898","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The antibacterial activity was tested at different concentrations (20, 10, 5,2.5, 1.25 & 0.625 mg/ml) of both extracts of spice by using disc diffusion & broth dilution method. The extracts were prepared by using solvents aqueous & methanol. The test microorganisms were also tested for their activity against a standard antibiotic Gentamicin (80 mg) by broth dilution method and the result was compared with that of Aqueous and Methanolic extracts.\u0000Results: Among different concentrations of the ALE, 15mg/ml & above concentration showed inhibitory effect against Pseudomonas aeruginosa. In case of MLE, 15mg/ml & above concentration showed inhibitory effect against aforesaid bacteria. In disc diffusion method, Zone of inhibition (ZOI) in case of ALE ranged between 6-25mm at different concentration of extracts. Minimum inhibitory concentrations (MIC) of ALE were 15 mg/ml and MLE were 7.5 mg/ml against Pseudomonas aeruginosa. This result was also compared against a standard antibiotic Gentamicin where the MICs of Gentamicin were lower in comparison to MICs of ALE & MLE. The present study showed that aqueous and methanolic extracts of leaves demonstrated antibacterial effects against Pseudomonas aeruginosa.\u0000Conclusion: From the study it is clearly observed that there is definite antibacterial effect of both the aqueous and methanolic extract of leaves of Cinnamomum tamala against Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Further studies are required to detect and isolate the biologically active ingredients present in the Cinnamomum tamala which are responsible for this antibacterial effect. Hopefully, that would lead to the discovery of new and more potent antimicrobial agents isolated from Cinnamomum tamala.\u0000The Journal of Ad-din Women's Medical College; Vol. 10 (1), Jan 2022; p 4-11","PeriodicalId":243193,"journal":{"name":"The Journal of Ad-din Women's Medical College","volume":"185 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-07-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114524484","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
