    Most infectious diseases follow a seasonal cycle that allows germs to spread and infect humans. An abrupt climate change can promote infections in the winter. The study aims to determine winter disease prevalence in Narayanganj. To learn about seasonal illness risk factors, management, treatment, and other implications. People in Narayanganj city were interviewed using a self-designed English questionnaire. The questionnaire asked about demographics, education, socioeconomic level, winter sickness awareness, etc. Our of total 200 participant population male respondents were 59% and female 41%, among them the prevalence of diseases are allergy 59%, stomach flu 76%, common cold 345, influenza 17%, skin disease 11%, asthma 21%, croup 6% and sore throat 14% which is counted respectively of total surveyed participants number.

    Diversity and seasonal abundance of small mammals in Bumdeling Ramsar Site, Trashiyangtse, Eastern Bhutan| JBES - Free download as PDF File (.pdf), Text File (.txt) or read online for free. Small mammals have multiple ecological roles and are important components of the terrestrial ecosystems. They are important ecological indicators of changes in the natural surroundings. However, little is known about the small mammals in Bhutan. We conducted this study in the Bumdeling Ramsar Site in eastern region of Bhutan, aimed at enhancing our understanding of the species composition, abundance, and seasonal diversity of small mammals. We laid linear transects, each measuring 500 m in six different habitat types: agriculture land (AG), fallow land (FL), Alnus sp. forest (AF), open grassland (OG), riparian forest (RR), and oak forest (OF). We placed 17 collapsible Sherman live traps (23x9x8cm) in each transect to capture both ground dwelling and arboreal small mammals. We conducted the trapping exercise twice in the year 2016 (28 March to 28 April during the wet season and 1 to 30 October during the dry season), amounting to a total of 1,224 trap nights. We trapped a total of 135 individuals of small mammals, yielding seven species of rodents (90 individuals; 66.7%) and four of insectivores (45 individuals; 33.3%). We found significant difference in the number of individuals trapped among the six different habitats (X2=66.43, df= 5, P<0.05) with the highest in AG (59 individuals, 43.7%) and the lowest in OG (1 individual; 0.7%) during the dry and wet season, respectively. In order to promote diversity of small mammals in the Ramsar site, we recommend reducing free-range cattle grazing and restraining domestic dogs in the vicinity of the Ramsar site.

    Scorpions are the members of phylum arthropods, Class arachnida and Order Scorpiones. Collection was made from March 2017 to October 2020. Scorpions were collected from diverse localities of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Pakistan through Pitfall traps, Battery-operated portable ultraviolet lamps and Stone turning methods. The specimens which were collected belonging to three families Buthidae, Scorpiopidae and Scorpionidae. The collection of Scorpions was high in August and July and less in October and March. The populations Hottentotta, Androctonus, Orthochirus,Fetilinia, Compsobuthus, Buthacus, Mesobuthusand Odontobuthus of the family Buthidae were increases from March to August with increase in temperature and their numbers were decreases from September to October with decrease in temperature. The numbers of the specimens belonging to genus Scorpiopsof the subfamily Scorpiopidae was high in August and less in October. The members of the genus Deccanometrus were increases up to August and then decreases from September to October with decrease in Temperature.
