Abstract: Background: Since the confinement of the lockdown, universities transferred their teaching and learning activities in online  as  an  all out  intention  to  prevent  the  transmission  of  the  infection. This  study  aimed  to  determine  the significant  changes  in  food  habits,  physical  activity,  sleeping  hours,  shopping  habits,  Internet  use  time  and  mental status of the students and investigate the associations between variables. Methods: The  study  participants  were  307  Undergraduate  students,  between  18  and  25  years  of  age completed  a structured  questionnaire  from  January  3,  2022  to  February  13,  2022.  The  questionnaire included  demographic information of the students, questionnaire of dietary pattern, physical activity, sleep quality index, Shopping practice and Internet use time. Chi-square tests were used to associate the baseline information with lifestyle changes in post lockdown. Results: The  study  reveals  that  21.5%  of  respondents  gained  weight,  23.8%  lost  their  weight  and  41.7%  controlled their weight. Eating of homemade food decreased after lockdown 76.5% and eating of restaurant food increased after lockdown  23.5%.  A  number  of  major  meals  3-4  meals  per  day  decreased  after  lockdown 61.9%.  Physical  exercise significantly  increased  after  lockdown  (p=0.001).  Sleeping  hours  per day  significantly  decreased  after  lockdown (p=0.001),  sleep  quality  was  almost  the  same  and  energy  level  increased  more  in  post  lockdown.  Respondents  felt mentally tired after lockdown 60.9%. Respondents spending time on the Internet in chat rooms was 88.3%. Conclusions: This study represents the significant impact on food habits, mental health, and daily routine of students after  lockdown,  suggesting  that  we  should  maintain  a  balanced  diet,  physical  exercise  to  improve sleep  quality  and mental health.

Abstract: Objective: HIV/AIDS is one of the fast-growing epidemics and global public health problems experienced throughout the entire world. Inadequate knowledge and misconceptions regarding the mode of transmission is responsible for the spread of HIV infection. The purpose of this study is to assess the knowledge and raise awareness about HIV through health education among college students. Methods: A total number of 300 college students voluntarily participated in this descriptive cross-sectional study. The data were collected through an online questionnaire, tabulated and analyzed in Microsoft Excel and SPSS version 25.0 (Chicago, IL, USA). The quantitative data of the study were expressed in terms of numbers and percentages. The questionnaire included Socio-demographic information, knowledge related to HIV exposure, causative agents, high risk groups, mood of transmission and preventive measure. Chi-Square tests were used to associate the variables. Results: The study reveals that the majority of the respondents had significant knowledge about HIV exposure, causative agent, mode of transmission and preventive measures. 71.3% of respondents recommended using condoms, 52% respondents of urban areas insisted to avoid multiple sexual partners and 78.6% respondents preferred to screen blood before transfusion. The study has significant association between age and knowledge about mood of transmission (p<0.007) as well as residence and attitude towards HIV patients(p<0.0001). Therefore, few students showed negative attitudes towards HIV patients. Conclusion: From this study results, it is recommended that awareness programs are needed for college students regarding HIV/AIDS transmission and prevention. It would be helpful to reduce the deficit of knowledge and attitudes regarding HIV/AIDS.

"Assessment of knowledge, awareness and attitudes regarding the re-emerging outbreak of monkeypox among the health professionals in Bangladesh: a web based cross-sectional study", International Journal of Community Medicine and Public Health (IJCMPH), 2023;10(8)2676-2683.

Abstract: Background: Before  the  early  70s,  Monkeypox  (MPX)  was  simply  recognized  as  a  native  disregarded  disease  in western  and  central  Africa.  Moreover,  monkeypox  is  a  re-emerging  disease  that  becomes  a  serious  life  threatening issue  all over  the  world  including  non-endemic  countries.  Regarding  the  evaluation  of  research  based  information about  monkeypox  in Bangladesh,  this  study  has  been  conducted  to  assess  the  existing  knowledge  among  health professionals. Methods: An online-based cross-sectional study  was carried out from 20 June  2022 to 10 August 2022 time  period where respondents' knowledge about monkeypox was assessed through using a 21-item scale. The chi-square test was used to make the association between socio-demographic variables and knowledge level. Results: Among 223 respondents, only 53% had good knowledge (mean score >14). Respondents age and sex were significantly correlated  with the  level  of  knowledge  about  monkeypox (p<0.006) and (p<0.02) respectively.  Around 72.1% of respondents agreed that the  world's populations are able to prevent and control monkeypox worldwide and 65%  of  respondents  believed  that  media  coverage  of  monkeypox  may  contribute  to  global  prevention.  Moreover, 52.4% respondents had negative attitudes toward monkeypox for becoming a world pandemic. Conclusions: The study finding reveals that knowledge about the monkeypox virus was average and training as well as  awareness programs  are  recommended  on  monkeypox  to  promote  further  knowledge  development  among  health professionals.
