Biomedical Scinece and Research Journals ! Community Physiotherapy and Rehabilitation in Bangladesh

Community Physiotherapy is totally a new concept and less pursued specialization in physiotherapy (Rajan, 2013). This might be due to various reasons; to name a few, the lack of interest among physiotherapist to work in the communities, paucity of information on community-based physiotherapy, complex methods required to measure a community and reduced awareness about community health problems among physiotherapists (Rajan, 2012). Bangladesh is a developing country with a huge population, in that case community-based physiotherapy can be a perceived as an important cog in the wheel of the healthcare system. Although, in Bangladesh, Graduate physiotherapists have lack of interest in community based of physiotherapy due to lack of information about it. Here center-based physiotherapy is very popular and maximum physiotherapists want to settle in urban areas due to a good or comfort life with a good income.

Center based physiotherapy depends on equipment, electricity, a lot of space etc and this center is run by a qualified physiotherapist. But the absolute growth of the disabled population in Bangladesh is approximately 25000 (Impact Foundation Bangladesh, 2002). These are more approximately 6 times more people with disabilities in rural areas (Japan International Co-operation Agency Planning and Evacuation Department, 2002). In this condition, community-based physiotherapy can be beneficial. It can be economical or non-economical. Economic benefits are those benefits that can be quantified, usually in monetary terms, while non-economic benefits are less tangible and are usually difficult to express in quantitative term.

Biomedical Science and Research Journals | Advanced Applications of Biomaterials Based on Alginic Acid

Advanced Applications of Biomaterials Based on Alginic Acid Abstract Alginic acid, also known as algin or alginate, is a natural carbohydrate, which is derived from marine brown algae, as well as some microorganisms. It can be used in various applications. In particular, alginate has shown great potential in the areas of wound healing, drug delivery, in vitro cell culture, and tissue engineering, allowing the categorization of it as a promising biomaterial, or a basic component of other biomaterials. The unique characteristics of alginic acid, such as the biocompatibility, the mild required gelation conditions, the low toxicity, the relative low cost and the simple modifications, allow the development of alginate hydrogels, and alginate derivatives with enhanced properties. The aim of this review, is to present an overview of the properties of alginate, shedding light on the current and potential applications and suggesting new perspectives for future studies. Introduction Innovative b

  The Need of Early Detection of Positive COVID-19 Patients in the Community by Viral Tests (e.g. RT-PCR Tests) and Antibody Tests (Serological Tests) to Stop the Spread Abstract Background and Objective:  The Aim of this article is to tell the Importance of early testing for COVID-19 novel corona virus of the suspected communities. The earlier to find out the Positive results of the COVID-19 novel corona virus more robust preventions against COVID-19 could be implemented. Methods:  The Author of this article has randomly selected 15 Articles from PUBMED Central and others sources with search word COVID-19 Test Kits. After reviewing the research articles and looking at their results it clearly shows the Importance of use of COVID-19 Test Kits. The earliest the use of COVID-19 Test Kits it prevents the whole community from getting infection from infected people. The Positive people with COVID-19 Test Kits would be Quarantined and treated in the health facilities or at home depending upo

  Banking Progenitor Cells for Hippiatric Regenerative Medicine: Optimized Establishment of Safe and Consistent Cell Sources for Standardized Veterinary Therapeutic Protocols Abstract Acute musculoskeletal injuries in large animals such as horses or camels often result in productivity losses and euthanasia in racing, esthetic or stock animal industries. Bioengineered products for tissue reconstruction and wound healing may supplement traditional veterinary surgical care synergistically. Banked primary fetal progenitor cells can potentially be used towards structural and functional therapeutic restoration in condensed timeframes. Extensive clinical experience exists in our University Hospital working with dermal progenitor fibroblasts for managing burns, donor site grafts and ulcers. By extrapolation, the present study assessed suitability of equine fetal progenitor cell sources for biotechnological processing, robust cell banking and application in tissue engineering strategies for hip
