1) Malnutrition in Bangladesh persists due to an intergenerational cycle where malnourished adults have malnourished children who grow up to be malnourished parents.
2) While underweight prevalence among children under 5 has declined significantly from over 70% in 1990 to 41.3% in 2014 due to factors like increased literacy, vaccination programs, and food production, the rate of decline has stagnated in recent years.
3) Continued high levels of malnutrition threaten Bangladesh's development, with stunted children experiencing impaired mental and physical development that can persist into adulthood.

RESULTS: Overall life span (LS) was 2252.1±1742.5 days and cumulative 5-year survival (5YS) reached 73.2%, 10 years – 64.8%, 20 years – 42.5%. 513 LCP lived more than 5 years (LS=3124.6±1525.6 days), 148 LCP – more than 10 years (LS=5054.4±1504.1 days).199 LCP died because of LC (LS=562.7±374.5 days). 5YS of LCP after bi/lobectomies was significantly superior in comparison with LCP after pneumonectomies (78.1% vs.63.7%, P=0.00001 by log-rank test). AT significantly improved 5YS (66.3% vs. 34.8%) (P=0.00000 by log-rank test) only for LCP with N1-2. Cox modeling displayed that 5YS of LCP significantly depended on: phase transition (PT) early-invasive LC in terms of synergetics, PT N0—N12, cell ratio factors (ratio between cancer cells- CC and blood cells subpopulations), G1-3, histology, glucose, AT, blood cell circuit, prothrombin index, heparin tolerance, recalcification time (P=0.000-0.038). Neural networks, genetic algorithm selection and bootstrap simulation revealed relationships between 5YS and PT early-invasive LC (rank=1), PT N0—N12 (rank=2), thrombocytes/CC (3), erythrocytes/CC (4), eosinophils/CC (5), healthy cells/CC (6), lymphocytes/CC (7), segmented neutrophils/CC (8), stick neutrophils/CC (9), monocytes/CC (10); leucocytes/CC (11). Correct prediction of 5YS was 100% by neural networks computing (area under ROC curve=1.0; error=0.0).
CONCLUSIONS: 5YS of LCP after radical procedures significantly depended on: 1) PT early-invasive cancer; 2) PT N0--N12; 3) cell ratio factors; 4) blood cell circuit; 5) biochemical factors; 6) hemostasis system; 7) AT; 8) LC characteristics; 9) LC cell dynamics; 10) surgery type: lobectomy/pneumonectomy; 11) anthropometric data. Optimal diagnosis and treatment strategies for LC are: 1) screening and early detection of LC; 2) availability of experienced thoracic surgeons because of complexity of radical procedures; 3) aggressive en block surgery and adequate lymph node dissection for completeness; 4) precise prediction; 5) adjuvant chemoimmunoradiotherapy for LCP with unfavorable prognosis.

Flu Vaccine Alert in Bangalore Karnatakaaddon Scans
As flu season approaches, health officials in Bangalore, Karnataka, are urging residents to get their flu vaccinations. The seasonal flu, while common, can lead to severe health complications, particularly for vulnerable populations such as young children, the elderly, and those with underlying health conditions.
Dr. Vidisha Kumari, a leading epidemiologist in Bangalore, emphasizes the importance of getting vaccinated. "The flu vaccine is our best defense against the influenza virus. It not only protects individuals but also helps prevent the spread of the virus in our communities," he says.
This year, the flu season is expected to coincide with a potential increase in other respiratory illnesses. The Karnataka Health Department has launched an awareness campaign highlighting the significance of flu vaccinations. They have set up multiple vaccination centers across Bangalore, making it convenient for residents to receive their shots.
To encourage widespread vaccination, the government is also collaborating with local schools, workplaces, and community centers to facilitate vaccination drives. Special attention is being given to ensuring that the vaccine is accessible to all, including marginalized communities who may have limited access to healthcare.
Residents are reminded that the flu vaccine is safe and effective. Common side effects are mild and may include soreness at the injection site, mild fever, or muscle aches. These side effects are generally short-lived and far less severe than the flu itself.
Healthcare providers are also stressing the importance of continuing COVID-19 precautions. Wearing masks, practicing good hand hygiene, and maintaining social distancing are still crucial, especially in crowded places.
Protect yourself and your loved ones by getting vaccinated. Together, we can help keep Bangalore healthy and safe this flu season. For more information on vaccination centers and schedules, residents can visit the Karnataka Health Department’s official website or follow their social media pages.
Stay informed, stay safe, and get your flu shot today!

35. To eliminate stunting in the longer term, these
Interventions should be supplemented by improvements
in the underlying determinants of undernutrition, such as
poverty, poor education, disease burden, and lack of
women’s empowerment.
36. Recommendations
• Business as usual will not work
• Need to think out of the box now
• There is no one size that fits all, several
strategies need to be tried
37. Recommendations
• Immediate need is to improve existing services
and scale them up
– Primary health care focusing on child & maternal
health and nutrition should be priority
– Increase number of centers, staff
– Improve quality of counseling
– Rigorous monitoring of quality of services to
reduce dissatisfaction with existing services
38. Recommendations
• Primary health care intervention package should
be expanded and improved
– IFA tablets for adolescent girls, PLW
– Breastfeeding & complementary feeding
– Micronutrient powder for infants & young children
– Management of moderate & severe acute
malnutrition
39. Undernutrition hotspots need special attention
– Monga-prone areas in the north
– The coastal belt and char areas
– Areas in Chittagong & Sylhet divisions with
higher prevalence of child malnutrition
– Rat-infested areas in the Hill Tracts
40. Recommendations
• But the ultimate goal is to prevent/control rapid
unplanned urbanization
– Create livelihoods in rural Bangladesh
– Control population growth drastically
– Improve livelihood & living conditions of people who
are already living in urban areas
Editor's Notes
For paper 3, the authors reviewed 45 interventions, including breastfeeding promotion, complementary feeding promotion strategies with or without provision of food supplements, micronutrient interventions, and general supportive strategies for improving family and community nutrition and disease burden reduction. This table summarizes the various interventions with demonstrated impact on maternal and child undernutrition. Importantly, for each of the conditions contributing to nutrition-related disability and death there are already highly effective interventions available.
Explain that figure shows the sort of information generated by the model. Go through what it shows – what happens to children between birth and 36 months of age – so by 36 months of age about 9% of children have died and of those who survive over half (58%) are stunted.
