Abstract

High-resolution microscopic images of the 8th abdominal segment, comb scales, pectin, tuft of hairs, saddle, head antenna, thoracic hooks and other morphological characteristics of Culex quinquefasciatus, Aedes aegypti and Aedes albopictus have been provided for the first time in Bangladesh. Mosquitoes spread deadly diseases (dengue, chikungunya, Japanese encephalitis, yellow fever, malaria, filariasis) that kill millions of people every year including Bangladesh. During dengue and dengue outbreak situations, it is very much necessary to identify the dengue-occurring mosquito vectors. Proper identification of the mosquito vectors of Bangladesh is the key factor for public health protection and disease prevention. Larval movement patterns and habitat characterization were also observed. Results obtained in this study revealed that dengue virus can also be carried by other Aedes species rather than A. aegypti. Results were discussed with previous study dealing with Aedes mosquito samples of Bangladesh. The findings will be very useful for the proper identification of dengue mosquito vectors in Bangladesh and the knowledge assists in the accuracy of mosquito control activities as well as prevention of mosquito-borne diseases.

Abstract

This pioneering study investigates how Islamic microfinance institutions (IsMFIs) digitally empower women entrepreneurs post-COVID-19 and support the SDGs. It seeks to enlighten policymakers, practitioners, and scholars on the intricate relationship between digital empowerment, women entrepreneurship, and IsMFIs. The study employed rigorous qualitative methodologies to tackle the topic's complexities. Extensive semi-structured interviews were conducted with IsMFI personnel, stakeholders, and digitally benefiting women entrepreneurs. A theme analysis was used to understand participants' viewpoints. Themes and iterative coding were employed to evaluate data. The study explored digital financial inclusion, technology literacy, digital challenges, and IsMFI transformation. Research sheds light on complex processes. According to findings, IsMFIs are instrumental in guiding women-owned companies through the digital landscape by providing digital financial services and training. They advance SDGs, gender equality, and economic prosperity. Gender inequality and internet access can be addressed through innovative collaborations and ideas. Participant biases, a standard limitation in qualitative research, were acknowledged. The study revealed the complex responsibilities of digital empowerment and IsMFIs, opening up new regional and cultural research avenues. The report underscores the need for gender-sensitive digital entrepreneurship policies and solutions. The article advocates for concentrated training and technology to optimize IsMFIs. This study fills a gap in the literature by examining the relationship between IsMFIs, digital empowerment, and women entrepreneurship. The contextualization of digital empowerment in this study underscores its urgency and significance
