Methods We obtained data for this study from the baseline assessment of a randomized control trial conducted among women of reproductive age with iron deficiency anemia (Hb <12 g/dl & serum ferritin <30 μg/L). The trial was carried out in Mirpur, Dhaka, Bangladesh between December 2017 and January 2019. As part of the baseline assessment, we collected data on women's sociodemographic characteristics and reproductive history from 525 participants. We also measured the height, weight, and MUAC at the baseline. We estimated BMI using formula; weight in kilograms divided by the square of height in meters. As per the WHO classification, we considered women with BMI ≥25 kg/m2 to be overweight and ≥30 kg/m2 to be obese. A multivariable logistic regression model was used to ascertain the ris...

In Bangladesh archaeology, it is a new paradigm to generate the predictive 3D models of the ruined structures in real mood and develop a VR to organise a journey from ruins mood to near to real mood. It will help to forecast the past virtually through the journey of present towards past. Futuristic forecasting is the normalised phenomenon in statistical analysis, despite the archaeologist’s motto, which is to predict the past. Methodologically, philosophising the vihara architecture of the Bangla region by following Vajrayana Buddhism is the first step. Then, information technology and archaeological data enable the 3D model generation of a known structure, producing high-quality outputs of the historic site for digital conservation. Finally, 3D predictive modelling has been achieved by supp...

Undoubtedly, 3D technology, open up an avenue to visualise, interpret and safeguard the archaeological understanding in virtual reality. In the field of archaeological research and cultural heritage studies, VR is becoming a powerful tool. Typically, archaeological understanding is the mood of prediction, which connotes the futuristic approach towards the past. They want to understand and visualise the past. In this paper, Shait Gumbad Mosque, which is the part of the World Heritage Site of Mosque Cities of Bagerhat, Bangladesh, is anticipated the VR to visualise and safeguard the Shait Gumbad Mosque by using the existing archaeological and VR technologi...
