Background: Food insecurity (FIS) affects around 25% of Bangladesh's population, and data from developed nations report higher FIS rates among individuals with type 2 diabetes (T2D), potentially worsening glycemic control. The importance of FIS to T2D has not been studied in developing countries such as Bangladesh, with substantial disparities in healthcare access, especially between rural and urban areas. We evaluated the relationships between food insecurity and glycemic control in the context of area of residence among individuals with T2D in Bangladesh.

- The study assesses the health risks from metal(loid) contamination in fish consumed in Bangladesh, analyzing data from 2000 to 2022.
- It finds that freshwater and herbivorous fishes carry the least risk for non-cancer health issues, while saltwater and carnivorous fishes present the highest risks; however, freshwater and omnivorous fishes have the highest cancer risks.
- Using advanced models like artificial neural networks, the study determines safe consumption limits, concluding that herbivorous fishes are the safest to eat, while setting specific limits for carnivorous, omnivorous, and saltwater fishes.
