    Abstract CNN-based deep learning models for disease detection have become popular recently. We compared the binary classification performance of eight prominent deep learning models: DenseNet 121, DenseNet 169, DenseNet 201, EffecientNet b0, EffecientNet lite4, GoogleNet, MobileNet, and ResNet18 for their binary classification performance on combined Pulmonary Chest Xrays dataset. Despite the widespread application in different fields in medical images, there remains a knowledge gap in determining their relative performance when applied to the same dataset, a gap this study aimed to address. The dataset combined Shenzhen, China (CH) and Montgomery, USA (MC) data. We trained our model for binary classification, calculated different parameters of the mentioned models, and compared them. The models were trained to keep in mind all following the same training parameters to maintain a controlled comparison environment. End of the study, we found a distinct difference in performance among the other models when applied to the pulmonary chest Xray image dataset, where DenseNet169 performed with 89.38 percent and MobileNet with 92.2 percent precision.

    Abstract Food toxicity and health risks due to heavy metals exposure through fish consumption have become a major concern for this present era. Since, both cultured and captured fishes are largely consumed in Bangladesh, a comparison of heavy metals between those fishes are must. Seven sample species were collected from a tributary of the Meghna River at Lakhai Kheyaghat, Habiganj, Bangladesh and fish market of Dhaka, Bangladesh. Energy Dispersive X-Ray Fluorescence (EDXRF) Spectrometer were used to measure the metal concentrations. The sequence of metal concentration in the flesh of fishes was Fe > Zn > Cu > Pb>Hg for both fish categories with mean concentrations (mg kg⁻¹) of 69.8 ± 7.5 > 56.42 ± 8.59 > 19.52 ± 2.63 > 0.44 ± 0.18 > 0.39 ± 0.04 respectively for cultured fishes (n = 21). Statistically, mean Cu, Zn, and Pb concentrations from captured fishes flesh samples were not significantly different from cultured fishes (p > 0.05) when analyzed with non-parametric Kruskal-Wallis test. Pb carcinogenicity from the cultured fishes was measured a value of 2.5E-05 for children exceeding the prescribed limit by 25 times which indicates a substantial risk for lifelong exposure. Summarizing the results, the Toxicity Scores (TS) has shown substantial rate of possibility for study area inhabitants to be exposed to heavy metals through heavy metal contaminated fish consumption, specially cultured fishes.

    Abstract Sodium alginate oligomers were tested for tea plant growth promoter and anti-fungal agent in this experiment. Sodium alginate solutions were irradiated by Co-60 gamma radiation with different radiation doses to produce the oligomers. Irradiated solutions were then diluted into 150, 300 and 500 ppm prior to foliar application. Solutions were applied through foliar spraying at 7 days interval and the best response of tea plants in terms of various attributes were recorded. Tea buds were collected in 10 days of interval and the growth attributes like- total number of buds, fresh weight of buds, average leaf area and weight per bud, weight of made tea etc. were calculated. The experiment was continued up to 12 weeks and the attributes were averaged to get results per plucking. 12 kGy radiation doses along with 300ppm solution showed the best results and about 36% increase in productivity was found based on the fresh weight of buds. Total fungal count in tea leaves was also found to be reduced greatly. Based on the present study, irradiated sodium alginate could be used as safe and environmentally friendly agent to increase tea production.

    Abstract Protein isolate was prepared from dark red kidney bean and was subjected to hydrolysis by two different proteases pepsin and papain by separate experiments. The antioxidant and antimicrobial properties of the resulting hydrolysates were evaluated by using 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) assay and agar diffusion method, respectively. The resulting pepsin hydrolysate DPH-1 exhibited the highest antioxidant activity with an IC50 of 0.015 ± 0.004 mg/mL compared to protein isolate DPI (0.115 ± 0.023 mg/mL) and papain hydrolysate DPH-2 (0.066 ± 0.014 mg/mL). Hydrolysis resulted in the significant (p < 0.05) increase of total polyphenol content in DPH-1 (38.39 mg GAE/g ± 1.17) and DPPH radical scavenging activity was significantly (p < 0.05) higher in both DPH-1 and DPH-2 than that of DPI. Also, DPH-1 showed better performance in terms of antioxidant activities in comparison to ascorbic acid, but the activity of DPH-1 increased significantly (p < 0.05) at 0.016 mg/mL. Moreover, both DPH-1 and DPH-2 delayed the formation of oxidizing substances when applied in apple juice stored for 6 days at room temperature. However, DPH-1 significantly (p < 0.05) retarded the oxidizing substances compared to control. Besides, DPH-1 exerted an antibacterial action against Escherichia coli with the diameter of the zone of inhibition (DIZ) of 20.26 mm and DPH-2 inhibited Pseudomonas aeruginosa with the DIZ of 19.23 mm. Overall, the results indicate that the dark red kidney bean protein hydrolysates thus obtained may be used as promising antioxidants or food additives.

    Abstract Background: Nonoperative treatment (NOT) of pediatric appendicitis as opposed to surgery elicits great debate and is potentially influenced by physician preferences. Owing to the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on health care, the practice of NOT has generally increased by necessity and may, in a post-COVID-19 world, change surgeons' perceptions of NOT.
    Objective: The aim of this study was to determine whether the use of NOT has increased in South Asia and whether these levels of practice would be sustained after the pandemic subsides.
    Methods: A survey was conducted among pediatric surgeons regarding their position, institute, and country; the number of appendicitis cases they managed; and their mode of treatment between identical time periods in 2019 and 2020 (April 1 to August 31). The survey also directly posed the question as to whether they would continue with the COVID-19-imposed level of NOT after the effect of the pandemic diminishes.
    Results: A total of 134 responses were collected out of 200 (67.0%). A significant increase in the practice of NOT was observed for the entire cohort, although no effect was observed when grouped by country or institute. When grouped by position, senior physicians increased the practice of NOT the most, while junior physicians reported the least change. The data suggest that only professors would be inclined to maintain the COVID-19-level of NOT practice after the pandemic.
    Conclusions: Increased practice of NOT during the COVID-19 pandemic was observed in South Asia, particularly by senior surgeons. Only professors appeared inclined to consider maintaining this increased level of practice in the post-COVID-19 world.

    Abstract Introduction: Bangladesh harbors many leeches in its vast wetlands. Leeches have a tendency to enter through body orifices with potentially life-threatening consequences. Literature search revealed inadequate description of clinical manifestations and treatment of leech infestations in children. We describe our experience with leech infestations in children.
    Methods: Between January 1, 2004 and December 31, 2010, 17 cases of leech infestation through body orifices in children were managed. This is a retrospective study on age, sex, route of leech entry, investigation and treatment, and outcome.
    Results: Age ranged from 4.5 to 11 years (mean 6.4 ± 1.8) and females accounted for more than 70 %. The orifices of leech entry include urethra, vagina, and rectum. Leeches could be found in eight cases. Two boys with leeches in the urinary bladder needed suprapubic removal. Leeches were retrieved from the vagina under general anesthesia in three cases, and on three occasions leeches came out from the vagina after normal saline instillation. In nine cases with different routes of entry where leech was not found, instillation of normal saline was sufficient to stop bleeding. Fifteen cases presented with bleeding and transfusion was required in five cases with Hb% <7 gm/dl.
    Conclusions: Leech infestation through lower body orifices is common in children of rural Bangladesh. Prompt diagnosis is of paramount importance, and application of normal saline is effective in most cases. Sometimes surgical intervention is required.
