  • Mpox Awareness and Infection Control Practices Among Hospital Nurses and Healthcare Workers in Bangladesh
    Hemayet Hossain, Md. Abdur Nur Sakib, Mostafizor Rahman, Zerin Tasnim Romana, Md. Hasan Ali, et al.
    Public Health Challenges, 2026
    Background The recent global outbreaks of Mpox, an emerging zoonotic viral disease, highlight sustained transmission in Africa and spread across Europe, challenging public health preparedness among frontline healthcare workers (HCWs). This study aimed to assess the knowledge, attitudes, and practices (KAP) regarding Mpox among hospital nurses and HCWs in Bangladesh and to identify sociodemographic factors influencing KAP outcomes. Methodology A cross‐sectional survey was conducted from October 1, 2024 to November 15, 2024 in eight hospitals in Dhaka district. Hospitals were selected via convenience sampling based on referral status and patient load, and participants were randomly chosen from active healthcare staff across categories. Data were collected using a pretested questionnaire, following a pilot study among 30 nurses and HCWs. Responses were recorded through KoboToolbox, and statistical analyses were performed using univariate and multivariate logistic regression. Results Out of the 200 HCWs approached, 110 provided complete and valid responses and were included in the final analysis. Among those who had heard (60.9%) about Mpox, 47.3% demonstrated good knowledge, 86.4% showed positive attitudes, and 82.7% reported correct preventive practices. Only 60.9% of participants reported having heard about Mpox. Among these, Facebook (29.9%) was the most commonly reported source of Mpox‐related information. Knowledge gaps were evident regarding zoonotic transmission, preventive guidelines, and the protective role of smallpox vaccination. Education level was significantly associated with knowledge (adjusted odds ratio [AOR] = 4.45; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.83–11.7; p = 0.002). Settlement type was significantly associated with practices, with urban HCWs more likely to report correct preventive measures (AOR = 4.13; 95% CI: 1.10–19.0; p = 0.047). Correlation analysis revealed significant positive associations among KAP ( p < 0.001). Conclusion Targeted training and awareness programs are vital to improve preparedness and infection control among hospital nurses, strengthening the national response to Mpox outbreaks in Bangladesh.

    Journal of Water and Health, 2026
    Hospital wastewater flowchart showing isolation of E. coli, K. pneumoniae, and S. aureus, followed by PCR identification, antimicrobial resistance testing, and biofilm analysis revealing multidrug-resistant biofilm-forming pathogens. Hospital wastewater, a critical source of pathogenic and opportunistic bacteria carrying antimicrobial residues and resistant strains, poses serious public health and environmental risks. This study assessed the biofilm-forming ability and multidrug resistance (MDR) profiles of Klebsiella pneumoniae, Escherichia coli, and Staphylococcus aureus isolated from hospital wastewater in Savar, Bangladesh. Fifty-three samples were analyzed using selective culture, biochemical tests, PCR, disk diffusion, and crystal violet microtiter plate (CVMP) assay. Among the isolates, 28 (52.8%) were identified as E. coli, 21 (39.6%) as K. pneumoniae, and 15 (28.3%) as S. aureus. High resistance to ampicillin was observed in E. coli (75.0%), K. pneumoniae (90.5%), and S. aureus (80.0%), while the highest sensitivity was found to imipenem in K. pneumoniae (100.0%), imipenem and cefuroxime in E. coli (96.4%), and ceftaroline in S. aureus (73.3%). MDR was detected in 15 (53.6%) E. coli, 5 (23.8%) K. pneumoniae, and 9 (60.0%) S. aureus isolates. E. coli (57.1%) and S. aureus (53.3%) were notable biofilm producers, with strong biofilm formation highest in E. coli (28.6%), followed by S. aureus (33.3%) and K. pneumoniae (23.8%). These findings highlight the critical presence of MDR-biofilm-forming pathogens in hospital effluents and emphasize the urgent need for effective wastewater treatment strategies.
  • Scabies Outbreak in Pediatric Populations of Bangladesh: A Perspective on Therapeutic Management, Risk Factors, and Public Health Implications
    Hemayet Hossain, Md. Al Muktadir, Snigdha Sharmin Binte Sayeed, Sojib Ahmed, Md. Hasan Ali, et al.
    Health Science Reports, 2026
    Background and Aims Scabies remains a major cause of morbidity among Bangladeshi children, particularly in overcrowded and resource‐limited settings. This perspective synthesizes current evidence to contextualize the surge of pediatric scabies outbreaks reported across Bangladesh in 2025. This perspective aimed to map outbreak hotspots, identify key risk determinants, and highlight health system gaps in surveillance and diagnosis, and therapeutic management of scabies. Methods Evidence was compiled from published literature, national health data, WHO reports, media alerts, interviews with 50 registered dermatologists, and ArcGIS‐based visualization of affected regions. Results Outbreaks were widespread across urban slums, religious school (Madrasa), Rohingya refugee camps, university dormitories, flood‐affected districts, rural communities and multiple districts including Cumilla, Barisal, Noakhali, Rajshahi, Sylhet, Khulna, Mymensingh, and Cox's Bazar driven by poverty, overcrowding, poor sanitation, seasonal humidity, and limited access to dermatologic care. Treatment practices reported by surveyed physicians revealed that 5% permethrin cream remains the first‐line therapy, while oral ivermectin is increasingly used for severe, recurrent outbreaks, although availability and affordability remain inconsistent across districts. Reinfection rates in institutional settings and the absence of national surveillance systems further complicate control efforts. Conclusion This perspective emphasizes the urgent need for integrated strategies, including strengthened surveillance, improved treatment access, community‐based hygiene interventions, and alignment with WHO's NTD roadmap. Strengthening these components is essential to reduce pediatric morbidity, prevent complications, and enhance Bangladesh's progress toward effective scabies control.
  • Zoonotic Anthrax Outbreak in Bangladesh: An Urgent Call for an Integrated One Health Control Strategy
    Hemayet Hossain, Md. Shahidur Rahman Chowdhury, Md. Mahfujur Rahman
    Health Science Reports, 2026
    Background Bangladesh continues to experience recurrent zoonotic anthrax outbreaks, particularly in livestock‐dense districts where informal slaughtering and gaps in carcass disposal persist. In August–October 2025, a multi‐upazila (sub‐district) outbreak was reported in Rangpur and Gaibandha district, raising renewed public health concern. Methods This perspective summarizes preliminary surveillance data published by the Institute of Epidemiology, Disease Control and Research (IEDCR), field investigations of local veterinary hospitals, and clinical observations. Human cases were diagnosed based on characteristic cutaneous lesions, epidemiological links to infected animals, and confirmatory bacterial culture of Bacillus anthracis from selected samples. Results More than 200 human cutaneous anthrax cases, including two fatalities (in Rangpur), were documented alongside over 200 livestock deaths in Rangpur and Gaibandha, Bangladesh. Most outbreaks were associated with the slaughtering and consumption of meat from sick animals, while improper carcass disposal likely contributed to environmental contamination. The outbreak disrupted rural markets, threatened animal health, and underscored persistent diagnostic limitations at the community/upazila level veterinary hospitals. Conclusion The 2025 anthrax event highlights entrenched vulnerabilities within animal health infrastructure, slaughter regulation, and public awareness. Strengthening mass vaccination, coordinated surveillance, safe carcass disposal, and risk communication through an integrated One Health approach is essential to interrupt transmission cycles and prevent environmental persistence of B. anthracis spores in Bangladesh.
  • Mobile Genetic Elements as Central Drivers of Antimicrobial Resistance: Molecular Mechanisms, Evolutionary Ecology, One Health Implications and Control Strategies
    Hemayet Hossain, Md. Hasan Ali, Tanvir Ahmad, Snigdha Sharmin Binte Sayeed, Md. Abdur Nur Sakib, et al.
    Antibiotics, 2026
    Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) represents a global health crisis, driven largely by the mobility of resistance determinants through mobile genetic elements (MGEs). These include plasmids, integrons, insertion sequences, transposons, integrative and conjugative elements (ICEs), and prophages, which together facilitate horizontal gene transfer (HGT) across bacterial species and ecosystems. This review aims to provide a comprehensive synthesis of current knowledge on the types, mechanisms, ecological drivers, and impacts of MGEs in the dissemination of antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs). Methods involved critical evaluation of recent genomic, epidemiological, and ecological studies, alongside case studies of clinically significant resistance outbreaks. Findings highlight how MGEs function as hubs for ARG capture, recombination, and stabilization, enabling the emergence of multidrug-resistant (MDR) and extensively drug-resistant (XDR) pathogens. We also explored their interactions with ecological pressures such as antibiotics, heavy metals, and biocides, as well as their role in One Health transmission pathways. The significance of this study lies in linking molecular insights with applied strategies, including genomic surveillance, MGE-targeted inhibitors, phage therapy, and CRISPR-based interventions. Understanding MGEs is essential for designing effective interventions to mitigate AMR and protect global health.

    Md Abubakar Siddik, Mst Afroza Khatun, Sweety Rani Mondal, Shoriful Islam, Md. Azizul Haque, et al.
    Veterinary Medicine and Science, 2026
    Background and Objectives This study aimed to assess the impact of diverse protein sources (soybean, mustard, rapeseed and black cumin [BC]) as dietary supplements on production performance, egg quality and gut microflora of Shaver Brown 579 commercial layers. Methods A randomized design allocated 324 hens over 4 months into six treatments with six replications for each treatment, each replication containing 09 birds. The treatments included T0 (control diet), T1 (basal diet + soybean), T2 (basal diet + mustard), T3 (basal diet + rapeseed), T4 (basal diet + mustard + BC) and T5 (Basal diet + Rapeseed + Black cumin). Production performances were assessed monthly and egg quality characters were assessed at 44th and 52nd weeks. Results Hens on diets featuring mustard, rapeseed and BC exhibited significantly higher body weight gain (BWG), without substantial impact on feed intake. The highest final body weight was observed in T5, with no mortality occurrences. No significant differences emerged in egg production, albumen index, shape index, shell breaking strength, shell thickness or shell percentage compared to control groups. However, egg weight showed significance in the third month ( p &lt; 0.05). Notably, dietary protein sources influenced gut microflora significantly ( p &lt; 0.05), with T0 having the highest microbial load and T5 the lowest. Egg production cost was the lowest in T4 (7.13 Tk. or $0.067/egg), where mustard oil cake and BC replaced soybean meal (SBM), whereas T1 recorded the highest cost (7.68 Tk. or $0.072/egg) using SBM. Conclusion Mustard meal, rapeseed meal and BC are effective SBM substitutes in layer diets without any adverse effect on egg quality or production. These findings highlight the potential of mustard meal, rapeseed meal and BC as quality protein sources in commercial layer nutrition.
  • Molecular Screening and Antibiogram Profile of Multidrug-Resistant Enteropathogenic Escherichia coli Isolated From Retail Chicken Meat
    Sakibul Haque Zilon, Hemayet Hossain, Md. Shahidur Rahman Chowdhury, Sojib Ahmed, Asikur Rahman, et al.
    Veterinary Medicine and Science, 2026
    Background Enteropathogenic Escherichia coli (EPEC) contamination of retail chicken meat is a significant cause of public health concern among susceptible groups like children, the elderly, and immunocompromised individuals. Objectives The current research was conducted to identify the prevalence, genotypic pattern and drug resistance of multidrug‐resistant EPEC (MDR‐EPEC) in chicken meat during January to June 2024 in Kuliarchar and Bhairab upazilas, Bangladesh. Methods A total of 140 retail chicken meat samples were collected from Kuliarchar and Bhairab upazilas between January and June 2024. The isolates were confirmed by primary culture, biochemical reactions, and molecular confirmation by PCR employing phoA and eaeA genes. Antimicrobial susceptibility testing was conducted using disk diffusion as per the CLSI 2020 standard. Results Overall prevalence of E. coli was 68.6% (95% CI: 60.2–76.2) and was found to be higher in Bhairab (81.6%) compared to Kuliarchar (47.2%). 8.6% of these were found to be EPEC. All the retrieved EPEC were resistant to ampicillin, and 91.7% were resistant to ceftazidime and gentamicin. Amoxicillin–clavulanic acid and ciprofloxacin were the most effective antimicrobials. All EPEC isolates ( n = 12) exhibited resistance to three or more antimicrobial classes and were therefore classified as multidrug‐resistant. Genotypic analysis showed high prevalence of bla TEM‐1, 2 (91.7%), bla SHV‐1 (66.7%), bla OXA‐1, 4 &amp; 30 (33.3%), with aac(3)‐iv (83.3%), sul1 (41.7%) and tet(A) (25.0%), indicating widespread β‐lactam and gentamicin resistance in EPEC. The multiple antibiotic resistance (MAR) index was 0.40–0.50, which indicated exposure to high antibiotic pressure. Conclusions The findings justify stricter food safety controls, effective use of antibiotics and proper hygiene to provide for the avoidance of the dissemination of MDR‐EPEC through infected chicken meat and public health safety.
