Bangladesh is a Muslim dominated country. Many of the Muslims are practicing Muslims. Islam has influence on the life of Muslims and many aspects of women human rights are influenced by Islam. Marriages, divorce, maintenance of wife, inheritance are regulated by Islamic laws. Some other aspects are regulated by secular laws. Bangladesh is signatory to many International conventions and declarations regarding women human rights. So Bangladesh women human rights are emanated from Islamic sharia laws, Bangladesh constitution, policies of the government and international declarations and conventions. In many respects women human rights in Islam and the rights emanate from secular sources are consistent with minor inconsistency where Bangladesh has made reservation. But the problem is that these rights are not observed properly. Local cultures have significant influence on the non-observance of women human rights in Bangladesh. As many of us are Muslims and we observe women human rights in Islam, it will uphold women rights in Bangladesh.

Human action of ethical worth is free and voluntary one. And ethical judgement concerning human action carries with it particular inference about the nature of man: the fact that s/he is a responsible being. This derives from man’s ontological status as reasonably acting being of care and accountability to and for one’s self and others. This qualitative research critically analyses the place of responsibility in ethical life of man. It discloses that free responsible human action is in fact deliberately rational action, and that in lived experience there is a unique logical relationship between responsibility and the quality of human society and environment. It emphasizes that maturity is an index of developed existence. It then makes the submission that the inevitability of responsibility in human existence is part and parcel of what we may call the ethical cost implicational character of our moral consciousness and freedom.

This study examines the impact of local authorities on citizen participation in social and economic development in the Bamenda municipalities of Cameroon. The problem addressed is the limited mobilization of citizen involvement despite an established legal framework. The study aims to assess local authorities' roles as mobilizers and identify factors hindering effective participation. Utilizing a descriptive survey research design, data were collected from 400 residents and 80 council officials through standardized questionnaires. Analysis was conducted using Chi-Square tests to evaluate the significance of local authority mobilization on citizen engagement. Findings indicate a strong positive perception of local authorities' influence on social development, with 172 agreements and a Chi-Square value of 22.45. In contrast, economic development participation received 118 agreements and a Chi-Square value of 18.67, reflecting skepticism regarding local authority effectiveness. Despite some skepticism, a majority acknowledge the positive role of local authorities in fostering citizen involvement. The study recommends enhancing communication and engagement strategies to improve citizen participation in economic initiatives and addressing resource shortages in healthcare and education. By strengthening citizen engagement, local authorities can significantly contribute to sustainable development in Bamenda.

Puerperal hematomas are a rare cause of postpartum hemorrhage. Their adequate management requires expertise and an adapted technical platform. To our knowledge, no case has been published in Mali. We report the case of a 38-year-old woman, multiparous 6th procedure 5th par with 5 living children, evacuated from a community health center located 90 km away, in a state of hemorrhagic shock occurring one hour after a home birth. She was surgically treated for an expansive vulvo-perineal hematoma. This case allows us to draw the attention of practitioners to the seriousness and singularity of this highly morbid pathology.
Based on social practice, it can be seen that university education culture is an important part of the social culture of each country and nation. Accordingly, university education culture has a great responsibility in training, educating, shaping personality, ethics, lifestyle and thinking of people corresponding to the educational philosophy of the university, as well as having a certain influence on the views, thoughts, behaviors and values of learners towards political and social issues in each country. In recent years, many universities in Vietnam have carried out comprehensive educational reforms in all aspects so that the university education environment becomes a space for training and cultivating the ethics, personality and lifestyle of learners, in which the responsibilities and tasks of teachers are extremely important in contributing to the orientation and setting an example for learners to practice and follow in order to create the necessary spiritual values in teaching and learning activities in the university education environment.

DOI: https://doi.org/10.36348/sijog.2024.v07i12.008
Background: Postpartum hemorrhage (PPH) is blood loss of 500 ml or more following birth of the baby. This study aimed to determine the impact of skills development training in the management of postpartum hemorrhage. Methods: It was an observational before-and-after study that was conducted in Paropakar Maternity and women’s Hospital. Training regarding management of PPH was given to 65 doctors from July to September 2020. Pre and post-training analysis of the trainees was done. Utilization of the skills that participants gained during training, and the changes in maternal morbidity and mortality related to PPH in the year prior to the training (year 2019) and after the training (year 2022) were recorded. A Chi square test was done to evaluate the p- value and value of <0.05 was considered significant. Odds ratio was calculated. Krickpatrick four level model was used to evaluate the impact of training. Results: There was a vast improvement in pre and post-training scores (29.5% vs 72.5%). A significant reduction in the rate of blood transfusion (41% vs 17.2% p= 0.0001, OR= 0.29), ICU admission (7%vs 1.7%, p=0.0001, OR=0.20) and peripartum hysterectomy (1.3 vs 0.04%, p=0.03, OR=0.28) was found. Similarly, condom tamponade placement, bimanual compression and application of compression suture increased post-training (67 vs 167, 56 vs 108 and 5 vs 12). Most importantly, maternal mortality due to postpartum hemorrhage dropped from 75% to 0%. Conclusion: The skill development training for health care workers was associated with a reduction in morbidity and mortality in patients with postpartum hemorrhage.

Background: Malaria continues to be a significant public health concern, particularly in sub-Saharan Africa and other regions with high endemicity. Despite ongoing efforts to control the disease, the malaria parasite remains a global health issue, presenting persistent challenges for individuals and healthcare systems in affected areas. Methods: This study investigated the distribution, prevalence, and molecular characteristics of Plasmodium falciparum among febrile patients in various healthcare facilities within the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Nigeria. A combination of retrospective and cross-sectional designs was employed to analyse 428 blood samples collected from febrile patients across selected government hospitals. Malaria parasitaemia was detected through Giemsa-stained thick and thin blood smears, with parasite density calculated per 200 leukocytes. RDT-prevalence wax determined using a rapid lateral flow. Result: A total of 428 individuals participated in the study, comprising 49.0% males (n=210) and 50.9% females (n=218), with no statistically significant difference in gender distribution (p>0.05). The age distribution showed that participants aged ≥41 years represented the largest group at 34.3% (n=147), while those aged <10 years accounted for 14.0% (n=60), 11–20 years for 16.1% (n=69), 21–30 years for 19.2% (n=82), and 31–40 years for 16.4% (n=70). Microscopic examination revealed a malaria infection rate of 32% (n=137) among participants, with the highest prevalence in those aged <10 years (33.6%, n=46) and the lowest in the 31–40 age group (8.8%, n=12). Gender-based analysis indicated a higher prevalence in males (52.6%) compared to females (47.4%). Facility-based prevalence was significantly higher in Wuse (30.0%, n=41) compared to other locations, with Zuba showing the lowest prevalence (8.0%, n=11). Rapid Diagnostic Test (RDT) results indicated a prevalence of 20.1%, with Wuse again exhibiting the highest rate at 38.6% (n=27/70). Age-related RDT prevalence showed the highest seroprevalence in the <10 years age group (65.0%, n=39/60), followed by 11–20 years (24.6%, n=17/69), 21–30 years (12.3%, n=10/81), and ≥41 years (8.8%, n=13/147). Conclusion: The findings reveal a slight predominance of females over males, indicating that women may be more inclined to seek medical attention for malaria-related symptoms. The malaria prevalence rate of 32.0% underscores the urgent need for effective strategies to combat the disease.

Coronary artery disease is one of the leading causes of mortality and morbidity in both developed and developing countries. Coronary artery disease (CAD) tends to present at a younger age and has more extensive angiographic involvement, resulting in genetic, conventional, metabolic and non-traditional risk factors. This systematic review provides a qualitative overview of the risk factors, angiographic features, treatments, and complications of Bangladeshi youth with coronary artery disease (CHD). Search PubMed, Embase, and Google Scholar for studies published between the year 2004 to 2022. Identified the paper. Studies conducted in Bangladesh and other countries in patients aged 25 to 65 years were published in English and included information on patients' clinical profiles and risk factors for early-onset CAD. Smoking, dyslipidemia, high BMI, high-sensitivity C-reactive protein, and hyperhomocysteinemia are frequently observed in young CAD patients. Among young patients with coronary artery disease, single-vessel disease was more common than multivessel disease. Complications of coronary artery disease, such as arrhythmias, cardiogenic shock, and heart failure, are also more common in young patients. Coronary angiography findings revealed that more than one-third of the patients had normal coronary arteries, but in the majority of patients they were found to have SVD, DVD, and TVD. In some cases, "TVD & LM" and mild CAD were also detected by her CAG.

Background: Malaria, caused by a protozoan parasite of the genus Plasmodium and highly endemic in Sub-Saharan Africa, continues to be a significant public health challenge in Nigeria, particularly among children and pregnant women, though it affects all age groups. Despite ongoing efforts to curb malaria, the parasite remains a global health issue, posing persistent challenges to people and healthcare systems in endemic regions. Method: This study employed a retrospective descriptive survey to assess malaria prevalence between January 2020 and December 2022. A total of 28,077 hospital records were analysed, encompassing 9,901 from AMAC, 5,394 from Kuje, 5,275 from Abaji, 1,601 from Kwali, 4,793 from Bwari, and 1,113 from Zuba, all within the Federal Capital Territory, over the three-year period. Result: This study revealed a total malaria prevalence of 37.2% from 2020 to 2022 across major hospitals in the six area councils of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT). The highest prevalence was observed in Wuse (46.2%) and the lowest in Bwari (26.5%). Yearly prevalence peaked in 2021 (41%), followed by 2022 (36%) and 2020 (32%). Malaria prevalence showed seasonal peaks, particularly in June and August, with variations across the regions. Age-dependent analysis indicated the highest prevalence among children aged 0-5 years, while pregnant women exhibited a 58.1% prevalence, with significant regional differences, particularly in Wuse (77.3%) and Kwali (63.7%). Statistical analysis highlighted significant differences in prevalence across regions between 2021 and 2022 (p<0.0347) and in pregnant women across regions (p=0.0035), though yearly trends were not statistically significant (p=0.075). Conclusion: This study underscores malaria's ongoing impact as a critical public health concern in the Federal Capital Territory (FCT) of Nigeria, revealing significant variations in prevalence across different regions, age groups, and seasons between 2020 and 2022. This study highlights the continued susceptibility of children under five to malaria and the disease's pronounced seasonal patterns, especially during the rainy months.
