Background: Currently, limited number of therapeutic options are available to treat Diabetes mellitus, and to find a potential candidate, laboratory work takes time and also needs animal studies. So, the aim of this study was to determine the efficacy of some natural phytocompounds with the aid of molecular docking, bioinformatics and in silico drug design approaches. Method: Two proteins (Human CYP3A4 linked to metformin and Human dipeptidyl peptidase-IV) were selected and molecular docking studies were conducted using Pymol, AutoDock Vina, PyRx, and Discovery Studio. Different important pharmacokinetic parameters like ADME and toxicity data were obtained from online databases SwissADME and pkCSM program. Results: It was found that human dipeptidyl peptidase-IV (PDB ID: 4A5S) has exhibited a maximal affinity of -9.7 Kcal/mol for bryonolic acid and hesperidin, but only -6.7 kcal/mol for metformin hydrochloride. Similarly, the highest affinity of hesperidin for human CYP3A4 bound to metformin (PDB ID: 5G5J) is -10.7 Kcal/mol compared to metformin hydrochlor (-6.3 Kcal/mol). Besides, all the compounds have been documented outstanding ADMET profile, and accepted by drug-likeness or Lipinski rule. Conclusions: The present study suggested that these compounds can be further investigated in vitro and in vivo to establish them as lead compounds against Diabetes mellitus..

Though mass vaccination programs helped to reduce the severity of the ongoing pandemic, various unwanted effects were reported in Turkey and Bangladesh after taking vaccines. The purpose of this study was to evaluate and compare the adverse effects of several vaccines in Turkey and Bangladesh and how the population of both countries prioritizes the continuation of vaccination compared to the side effects. An online survey with a pretest was conducted to gather data over the research period from July 10, 2021 to December 10, 2021. Finally, the questionnaire was shared with the mass population of Turkey and Bangladesh who have received at least one or two doses of the COVID-19 vaccines. The quality of the questionnaire was evaluated with Cronbach’s alpha test. The study consisted of 1508 respondents from Bangladesh and 602 respondents from Turkey. Among the total 2110 respondents, 50.0% were male 66.8% were from the 18–30 years age range, and 77.5% reported living in the city area. Among all the respondents, 64.99% of those vaccinated in Bangladesh and 67.28% of those vaccinated in Turkey reported side effects after vaccinations. Participants receiving mRNA vaccines (Pfizer and Moderna) experienced the most side effects, with many reporting pain at the injection site in both nations. Following that, fever, body pain, and headache were common in Bangladesh, whereas body pain, fatigue, and arm numbness were common in Turkey. The study found no significant adverse events reported in Turkey and Bangladesh following the first and second doses of COVID-19 vaccination. These COVID-19 vaccines showed similar patterns of efficacy and safety during the short period of analysis. Vaccines from different manufacturers showed a non-significant level of adverse events during this binational AEFI approach to COVID-19 vaccines. More studies are recommended on the efficacy and safety of several vaccines to discover unexpected effects.
