    A. M. Shamim, Aiman Hossan, Md. Shafiul Hossen, Md Abdul Barek, Mohammad A. Rashid, et al.
    Health Science Reports, 2026
    Background and Aims The growth and spread of breast carcinoma are influenced by genetic factors. Diverse forms of cancer have been reported to display multiple subtypes of the microRNA gene. Therefore, the current study aimed to explore the connection between the miR‐218‐2 (rs11134527) and breast cancer risk. Methods A total of 303 participants (158 breast cancer patients and 145 healthy controls) were enrolled. Clinical and demographic data were collected through structured questionnaires and hospital records. Genotyping of miR‐218‐2 rs11134527 was performed using the T‐ARMS‐PCR technique. Statistical analyses were conducted with SPSS v25.0 and MedCalc v19.0.7. The adjusted odds ratio (aOR) using binary logistic regression that controls for age and BMI was employed to investigate the relationship between the targeted SNPs and the risk of breast cancer. Results Among the patients, invasive ductal carcinoma was the most frequent histological type (49.61%), followed by lobular carcinoma (17.22%). Grade II tumors (63.75%) were predominant. Ultrasound (64.18%) and biopsy (68.66%) were the most common diagnostic tools. Chemotherapy was the principal treatment (62.12%), with cyclophosphamide (69.62%), doxorubicin (53.80%), and paclitaxel (56.33%) as the most prescribed agents. Genotype analysis revealed that individuals carrying the AA genotype had a significantly higher risk of breast cancer than those with GG (additive model 2: OR = 2.48, 95% CI = 1.12–5.48, p = 0.025). Significant associations were also observed under the recessive model (AA vs. GG + AG: OR = 1.96, 95% CI = 1.0–3.86, p = 0.051) and the allelic model (A vs G: OR = 1.59, 95% CI = 1.06–2.39, p = 0.026). Conclusion The miR‐218‐2 rs11134527 A allele confers an increased risk of breast cancer in Bangladeshi women, supporting its potential role as a population‐specific genetic biomarker for susceptibility assessment.

    Mohammad Ashraful Islam, Al Amin, Md. Abdul Aziz, Md. Mahabubur Rahaman, Jakir Hossain, et al.
    Health Science Reports, 2026
    Background Cancer is a significant global health challenge, affecting millions of people every year. Overall survival rates have improved over time, but some patients exhibit treatment resistance, prompting ongoing research to find suitable and effective sensitizers. Resveratrol, a natural polyphenolic compound, has demonstrated significant effects in inhibiting the growth and spread of cancer. However, the molecular mechanisms and applications of resveratrol remain unclear. Objective In this updated narrative review, we aimed at discussing the role and related molecular mechanisms of resveratrol in various cancers and providing an overview of its therapeutic potential for the treatment and prevention of these cancers. Methodology We conducted an extensive literature search across four major databases, including PubMed, Google Scholar, Web of Science, and ScienceDirect, to identify all relevant articles. Result Resveratrol is a naturally occurring polyphenolic compound, specifically a stilbene, found in significant quantities in grapes, berries, peanuts, and various other plants. Resveratrol significantly contributes to the reduction of various human cancers, including those of the breast, cervix, thyroid, prostate, brain, skin, colon, bone, and ovarian cancers. Resveratrol has been shown to influence cell cycle arrest, activate apoptosis, and suppress metastasis, all of which are achieved through various signaling pathways. Additionally, several in vivo studies have shown promising results suggesting it may reduce tumor development and extend lifespan in animal cancer models, among other benefits. Conclusion This review indicates that resveratrol could serve as a prototype for developing more efficacious and less toxic therapeutic agents for the treatment of various cancers.
  • Association of NUDT17 rs9286836 and rs2004659 variants with breast cancer risk in Bangladeshi Women
    Md. Shajid Hossain Rafi, Md. Shalahuddin Millat, Md Abdul Barek, Syed Masudur Rahman Dewan, Mohammad Shahriar, et al.
    Plos One, 2026
    Breast cancer is a multifaceted illness impacted by genetic factors as well as environmental influences. While variants in the NUDT17 gene have been associated with cancer biology, their involvement in breast cancer is still inadequately investigated, especially within South Asian populations. This study investigated the association between two NUDT17 polymorphisms, rs9286836 and rs2004659, and breast cancer risk in Bangladeshi women using a case–control design. A total of 240 breast cancer patients and 240 age-, sex-, and BMI-matched healthy controls were enrolled. Genomic DNA was extracted from blood samples, and genotyping was performed using tetra-primer ARMS-PCR for rs9286836 and PCR–RFLP for rs2004659. The statistical methods employed included chi-square tests for genotype distributions and logistic regression to calculate odds ratios (ORs) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs). Genotyping for NUDT17 rs9286836 was successfully completed for all recruited participants. However, for rs2004659, high-quality genotyping data were available for 204 breast cancer cases and 204 controls after quality control procedures. No significant association was observed between rs9286836 and breast cancer risk across the tested genetic models. In contrast, rs2004659 showed a robust protective association with breast cancer, particularly among heterozygous individuals, and this protective effect was consistently observed across the dominant, over-dominant, and allelic models. Haplotype analysis revealed that the AA haplotype was associated with an increased risk of breast cancer, whereas the AG and GA haplotypes were associated with a reduced risk. Expression analysis further demonstrated elevated NUDT17 levels in breast cancer tissues and genotype-dependent expression effects for both variants. These findings suggest a protective role of rs2004659 in breast cancer susceptibility and highlight the potential of NUDT17 polymorphisms as biomarkers in Bangladeshi women.
  • Protective Role of Vitamins C, D, and K in the Management of Dengue: A Narrative Review to Combat the Dengue Outbreak
    Shah Md Muztahid Hasan Chowdhury, Md. Shafiul Hossen, Mohammad A. Rashid, Mahammed Shafin Ul Islam, Arafat Miah, et al.
    Health Science Reports, 2026
    Background and Aims Dengue fever is mostly found in tropical and subtropical regions and is spread by mosquitoes. Still now, no specific antiviral medication is available against the disease. However, several vitamins have been identified as potential dengue therapy supplements. Therefore, this study aimed to comprehensively gather data on the protective role of vitamins C, D, and K in the treatment of dengue fever. Methods To conduct the present narrative review, we retrieved data from Google Scholar, Web of Science, PubMed, Cochrane Library, BanglaJOL, Embase, and Scopus regarding the influence of vitamin supplements in dengue treatment. Articles published in English before March 2025 were included in the study. Results and Discussion This review explored how vitamin C neutralizes reactive oxygen species and reduces inflammation and oxidative damage in dengue infection. It stimulates chemotaxis and NK cell activity and controls the activities of monocytes, macrophages, phagocytosis, and the release of cytokines that promote inflammation. While shielding neutrophils from oxidative damage, it also promotes ROS production, which is essential for pathogen removal. Additionally, vitamin D possesses antiviral and immunomodulatory properties that help to fight dengue virus (DENV). It regulates the course of the disease in DENV‐infected individuals by modifying immunological responses. It can limit viral replication, decrease the expression of DENV entry receptors, and alter the expression of inflammatory cytokines in cells infected with the virus. Moreover, vitamin K is recommended in cases of dengue‐related hepatic failure and encephalopathy. The administration of vitamin K in early dengue hemorrhagic fever (DHF) may help to avoid anemia and lessen the need for transfusions. Conclusion By targeting important pathogenic processes, the adjunctive use of vitamins C, D, and K together provides an effective supplemental strategy in the dengue management and provides a good patient outcome in future dengue outbreak.

    Susmita Das, Md. Shafiul Hossen, Md. Abdul Barek, Mohammed Safiqul Islam, Mohammad A. Rashid, et al.
    Health Science Reports, 2026
    Background and Aims Obesity is now considered a global epidemic in many parts of the world. Bangladesh is now affected by obesity, which was formerly thought to be a problem of developed countries. Several studies have been conducted to investigate obesity in Bangladesh. However, individual studies may not represent the variability across populations, regions, age groups, or study designs. To map all the variables examined, the current study focused on examining the results of the original researches on obesity in Bangladesh. Methods and Materials We retrieved articles from PubMed, Web of Science, Google Scholar, Scopus, and so forth by following the PRISMA guidelines that were published between 2008 and 2025. This study thematically analyzed the findings of the 76 included studies in terms of prevalence, risk factors, and comorbidities associated with obesity. Results The prevalence of obesity in Bangladeshi adults varied, ranging from 3.2% to 50.23%. It was more prevalent in urban areas. Abdominal obesity was more common, affecting up to 21% of individuals. Additionally, females were more likely to be obese than males. Family history, sleep disturbances, age, being female, higher education, and income were the most common risk factors for obesity in adults. Unhealthy eating habits, physical inactivity, urban areas, high income, watching TV and using computers, and heredity were associated with childhood obesity. In addition, increased age, high educational level and socioeconomic status, and physical inactivity were the major risk factors in women. Moreover, some comorbidities, such as diabetes, hypertension, and aberrant lipid profiles, are strongly linked to obesity in Bangladesh. Conclusion This study revealed a higher prevalence of obesity in urban dwellers and females, obesity‐associated risk factors and comorbidities in Bangladesh. Awareness initiatives should be given top priority in government policies to reduce the burden. Therefore, future research should focus on Bangladesh's healthcare system to ensure obesity awareness.
  • Association of NF-kappaBIA rs696 gene polymorphism with breast cancer risk in Bangladeshi women: A case-control study
    Sara Shahid Meem, Sakif Ahamed Khan, Mohiuddin Ahmed Bhuiyan, Mohammad Safiqul Islam, Md. Rezaul Islam, et al.
    International Journal of Biological Markers, 2026
    Background Breast cancer is the leading cause of cancer-related mortality among women in developing nations. NFKBIA encodes the inhibitors of nuclear factor-kappaB (NF-κB), which plays a critical role in modulating inflammation and carcinogenic processes. However, no prior studies were conducted to determine the association between NFKBIA polymorphisms and breast cancer susceptibility in the Bangladeshi population. Therefore, we aimed to examine the association of the NFKBIA (rs696) polymorphism with breast cancer risk in Bangladeshi women. Methods This case-control study involved 168 breast cancer patients and 150 healthy volunteers, utilizing polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism. We assessed the p -value, odds ratio (OR), and 95% confidence interval (CI) to analyze the level of risk association of rs696. Results The cancer patients exhibited a higher mutant allele frequency than the controls. Breast cancer patients who are carriers of the mutant allele demonstrated a markedly elevated risk in two genetic models, including the additive model 2 (GG vs. AA: OR = 2.09, 95% CI = 1.03–4.23, p -value=0.042) and the dominant model (AG + GG vs. AA: OR = 1.73, 95% CI = 1.07–2.78, p -value=0.025). Moreover, the analysis of allele frequency indicated that carriers of the mutant allele G among breast cancer patients exhibited a significantly elevated risk compared to carriers of the wild-type A allele (G vs. A: OR = 1.42, 95% CI = 1.04–1.96, p -value=0.029). Conclusion Our results suggest that NFKBIA (rs696) might be associated with an increased risk of breast cancer in Bangladeshi women. However, we recommend studies in the future with a larger sample size to validate these findings.
