This study aims to evaluate the effects of HFD on liver anatomy and to study the morphological changes with its histological findings  Methodology: 50 male albino rats were acclimatized in the animal house of DUHS, divided into 5 groups (GP). GP 1 was on a standard diet for 6 weeks, GP 2 was on HFD for 6 weeks, GP 3, GP 4, and GP 5 were on HFD for 6 weeks. They were treated with ginseng root extract in doses of 100mg/ml, 200mg/ml and 400 mg/ml for 6 weeks. After 12 weeks, GP3, GP4, and GP 5 were dissected, and the liver was isolated for histology and micrometry. Blood was drawn and sent for LFT to correlate morphological changes with enzymes.  Results: Rats on a high-fat diet developed fatty liver with altered LFT. The treated group showed a reversal of changes in morphology and LFT in a dose-dependent manner.  Conclusion: The morphometric analysis revealed that fatty accumulation in liver cells deranges the liver function leading to metabolic syndrome. Ginseng root extract helps in depleting fatty accumulation in the liver. </Text> </OtherText> <PublicationDate>20230301</PublicationDate> <RelatedWork> <RelationCode>81</RelationCode> <WorkIdentifier> <WorkIDType>01</WorkIDType> <IDValue>1-91</IDValue> </WorkIdentifier> </RelatedWork> <RelatedProduct> <RelationCode>89</RelationCode> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>01</ProductIDType> <IDValue>1-91-911-g904</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> </RelatedProduct> </ContentItem> </DOISerialArticleWork> <DOISerialArticleWork> <NotificationType>06</NotificationType> <DOI>10.29052/IJEHSR.v11.i1.2023.01-07</DOI> <DOIWebsiteLink>https://aeirc-edu.com/ojs14/index.php/IJEHSR/article/view/909</DOIWebsiteLink> <DOIStructuralType>Abstraction</DOIStructuralType> <RegistrantName>Advance Educational Institute and Research Center</RegistrantName> <RegistrationAuthority>mEDRA</RegistrationAuthority> <WorkIdentifier> <WorkIDType>01</WorkIDType> <IDValue>1-91-909</IDValue> </WorkIdentifier> <SerialPublication> <SerialWork> <Title textformat="00" language="eng"> <TitleType>01</TitleType> <TitleText>International Journal of Endorsing Health Science Research (IJEHSR)</TitleText> </Title> <Publisher> <PublishingRole>01</PublishingRole> <PublisherName>Advance Educational Institute and Research Center</PublisherName> </Publisher> <CountryOfPublication>PK</CountryOfPublication> </SerialWork> <SerialVersion> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>01</ProductIDType> <IDValue>1</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>07</ProductIDType> <IDValue>23103841</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> <ProductForm>JD</ProductForm> <EpubFormat>01</EpubFormat> <EpubFormatDescription>Open Journal Systems (OJS)</EpubFormatDescription> </SerialVersion> <SerialVersion> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>07</ProductIDType> <IDValue>23073748</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> <ProductForm>JB</ProductForm> </SerialVersion> </SerialPublication> <JournalIssue> <JournalVolumeNumber>11</JournalVolumeNumber> <JournalIssueNumber>1</JournalIssueNumber> <JournalIssueDesignation>Vol 11 No 1 (2023): International Journal of Endorsing Health Science Research</JournalIssueDesignation> <JournalIssueDate> <DateFormat>06</DateFormat> <Date>2023</Date> </JournalIssueDate> </JournalIssue> <ContentItem> <SequenceNumber>1</SequenceNumber> <TextItem> <PageRun> <FirstPageNumber>01</FirstPageNumber> <LastPageNumber>07</LastPageNumber> </PageRun> </TextItem> <Title textformat="00" language="eng"> <TitleType>01</TitleType> <TitleText>Investigating the causes of birth defects.</TitleText> </Title> <Contributor> <SequenceNumber>1</SequenceNumber> <ContributorRole>A01</ContributorRole> <PersonName>Sumbul Fatima</PersonName> <PersonNameInverted>Fatima, Sumbul</PersonNameInverted> <ProfessionalAffiliation> <Affiliation>NED University of Engineering & Technology, Karachi-Pakistan.</Affiliation> </ProfessionalAffiliation> </Contributor> <Contributor> <SequenceNumber>2</SequenceNumber> <ContributorRole>A01</ContributorRole> <PersonName>Nisar Ahmed Shar</PersonName> <PersonNameInverted>Shar, Nisar Ahmed</PersonNameInverted> <ProfessionalAffiliation> <Affiliation>NED University of Engineering & Technology, Karachi-Pakistan.</Affiliation> </ProfessionalAffiliation> </Contributor> <Language> <LanguageRole>01</LanguageRole> <LanguageCode>eng</LanguageCode> </Language> <Subject> <SubjectSchemeIdentifier>23</SubjectSchemeIdentifier> <SubjectHeadingText>Birth Defects Data, Copy Number Variation, Loss of DNA, Causes, Inheritance, Freely Accessible Data.</SubjectHeadingText> </Subject> <OtherText> <TextTypeCode>01</TextTypeCode> <Text textformat="00" language="eng"> Background: Understanding and investigating the causes of birth defects is a critical approach toward the findings and development of helpful treatments and diagnostic strategies to overcome the issue of birth defects. We aim to investigate birth defects' causes by identifying the most common abnormal genes found in an inheritance pattern. Collecting genetic causes of the most common birth defects found in Pakistan and searching the link between birth defects and other harmful diseases.  Methodology: The birth defects data is systematically gathered and critically analyzed to assess the role of insertions and deletions as the causative agents. Analysis was conducted on genomic data to investigate the genetic causes of congenital abnormalities.  Results: The most common birth defects, namely neural tube defect (spina bifida), Facial palate (cleft/lip palate), heart defects (atrial septal defect, ventricular septal defect, tetralogy of Fallot), deletion syndrome, and laryngomalacia caused by the main problematic genes namely MTHFR, MEIS2, TBX1, and NKX2-5. The results show that about eighty-six percent (86%) of gene variants overlap completely with the defective genes transcript, including both insertions/gain and deletions/loss.  Conclusion: Identification of the main genes which are involved in most of the common birth defects highlights the major twelve genes, namely LMNA, MTHFR, POMC, TTN, SLC25A13, FGFR3, GCH1, TBX1, MEIS2, NKX2-5, GATA4, and GATA6. </Text> </OtherText> <PublicationDate>20230301</PublicationDate> <RelatedWork> <RelationCode>81</RelationCode> <WorkIdentifier> <WorkIDType>01</WorkIDType> <IDValue>1-91</IDValue> </WorkIdentifier> </RelatedWork> <RelatedProduct> <RelationCode>89</RelationCode> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>01</ProductIDType> <IDValue>1-91-909-g907</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> </RelatedProduct> </ContentItem> </DOISerialArticleWork> <DOISerialArticleWork> <NotificationType>06</NotificationType> <DOI>10.29052/IJEHSR.v11.i1.2023.58-62</DOI> <DOIWebsiteLink>https://aeirc-edu.com/ojs14/index.php/IJEHSR/article/view/811</DOIWebsiteLink> <DOIStructuralType>Abstraction</DOIStructuralType> <RegistrantName>Advance Educational Institute and Research Center</RegistrantName> <RegistrationAuthority>mEDRA</RegistrationAuthority> <WorkIdentifier> <WorkIDType>01</WorkIDType> <IDValue>1-91-811</IDValue> </WorkIdentifier> <SerialPublication> <SerialWork> <Title textformat="00" language="eng"> <TitleType>01</TitleType> <TitleText>International Journal of Endorsing Health Science Research (IJEHSR)</TitleText> </Title> <Publisher> <PublishingRole>01</PublishingRole> <PublisherName>Advance Educational Institute and Research Center</PublisherName> </Publisher> <CountryOfPublication>PK</CountryOfPublication> </SerialWork> <SerialVersion> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>01</ProductIDType> <IDValue>1</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>07</ProductIDType> <IDValue>23103841</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> <ProductForm>JD</ProductForm> <EpubFormat>01</EpubFormat> <EpubFormatDescription>Open Journal Systems (OJS)</EpubFormatDescription> </SerialVersion> <SerialVersion> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>07</ProductIDType> <IDValue>23073748</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> <ProductForm>JB</ProductForm> </SerialVersion> </SerialPublication> <JournalIssue> <JournalVolumeNumber>11</JournalVolumeNumber> <JournalIssueNumber>1</JournalIssueNumber> <JournalIssueDesignation>Vol 11 No 1 (2023): International Journal of Endorsing Health Science Research</JournalIssueDesignation> <JournalIssueDate> <DateFormat>06</DateFormat> <Date>2023</Date> </JournalIssueDate> </JournalIssue> <ContentItem> <SequenceNumber>2</SequenceNumber> <TextItem> <PageRun> <FirstPageNumber>58</FirstPageNumber> <LastPageNumber>62</LastPageNumber> </PageRun> </TextItem> <Title textformat="00" language="eng"> <TitleType>01</TitleType> <TitleText>Empowering Future Nurses: Overcoming Challenges and Embracing the Benefits of Research in Nursing Education.</TitleText> </Title> <Contributor> <SequenceNumber>1</SequenceNumber> <ContributorRole>A01</ContributorRole> <PersonName>Stephen Riaz</PersonName> <PersonNameInverted>Riaz, Stephen</PersonNameInverted> <ProfessionalAffiliation> <Affiliation>NHS Sandwell and West Birmingham Hospital, Birmingham-United Kingdom.</Affiliation> </ProfessionalAffiliation> </Contributor> <Language> <LanguageRole>01</LanguageRole> <LanguageCode>eng</LanguageCode> </Language> <Subject> <SubjectSchemeIdentifier>23</SubjectSchemeIdentifier> <SubjectHeadingText>Nursing, Research, Education, Patient Safety, Health Care Quality.</SubjectHeadingText> </Subject> <OtherText> <TextTypeCode>01</TextTypeCode> <Text textformat="00" language="eng"> Nursing education involves extensive training to develop critical thinking and decision-making skills that are essential for effective patient care. Research is a crucial component of nursing education as it provides opportunities for students to gain new knowledge and apply evidence-based practices. However, undergraduate nursing students often view research as a challenging and intimidating task. Negative perceptions and lack of resources and support can hinder students' ability to conduct research successfully. This article emphasizes the importance of research in nursing education and highlights the challenges that undergraduate nursing students face when conducting research. It also explores ways in which nursing schools can provide necessary resources and support to overcome these challenges and help students develop research skills. By doing so, nursing students can become more confident and effective practitioners based on evidence-based practice, contributing to better patient outcomes. </Text> </OtherText>

attitudes, and practices (KAP) towards COVID-19. In this study, we investigated Pakistani residents' KAP towards COVID-19 during the peak spread of this disease.  Methodology: cross-sectional survey designed to evaluate the knowledge, attitudes, and practices during the COVID-19 epidemic using an online questionnaire. The knowledge section of the questionnaire had eight questions (K1-K8) regarding clinical presentations, transmission routes, prevention, and control of COVID-19. Attitudes towards COVID-19 were estimated by four questions (A1-A4) mainly focused on the agreement on the successful control of COVID-19. For practices (P1-P6), six questions were asked related to washing hands, covering the mouth, and social distancing practices.  Results: A total of 139 completed forms were included in the analysis, of which 98 (70.5%) were females and 41(29.5%) were males. Results of multiple binary logistic regression analysis on factors significantly associated with attitude towards COVID-19, successful control of COVID-19 in Pakistan by gender OR (95% CI), 1.95(1.58, 0.80). As these findings were recruited from a small number of participants, they cannot be generalized to the entire population.  Conclusion: The findings of our study suggest that the unequal distribution of knowledge may impede certain people from adopting healthy practices. </Text> </OtherText> <PublicationDate>20230301</PublicationDate> <RelatedWork> <RelationCode>81</RelationCode> <WorkIdentifier> <WorkIDType>01</WorkIDType> <IDValue>1-91</IDValue> </WorkIdentifier> </RelatedWork> <RelatedProduct> <RelationCode>89</RelationCode> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>01</ProductIDType> <IDValue>1-91-712-g905</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> </RelatedProduct> </ContentItem> </DOISerialArticleWork> <DOISerialArticleWork> <NotificationType>06</NotificationType> <DOI>10.29052/IJEHSR.v11.i1.2023.34-41</DOI> <DOIWebsiteLink>https://aeirc-edu.com/ojs14/index.php/IJEHSR/article/view/607</DOIWebsiteLink> <DOIStructuralType>Abstraction</DOIStructuralType> <RegistrantName>Advance Educational Institute and Research Center</RegistrantName> <RegistrationAuthority>mEDRA</RegistrationAuthority> <WorkIdentifier> <WorkIDType>01</WorkIDType> <IDValue>1-91-607</IDValue> </WorkIdentifier> <SerialPublication> <SerialWork> <Title textformat="00" language="eng"> <TitleType>01</TitleType> <TitleText>International Journal of Endorsing Health Science Research (IJEHSR)</TitleText> </Title> <Publisher> <PublishingRole>01</PublishingRole> <PublisherName>Advance Educational Institute and Research Center</PublisherName> </Publisher> <CountryOfPublication>PK</CountryOfPublication> </SerialWork> <SerialVersion> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>01</ProductIDType> <IDValue>1</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>07</ProductIDType> <IDValue>23103841</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> <ProductForm>JD</ProductForm> <EpubFormat>01</EpubFormat> <EpubFormatDescription>Open Journal Systems (OJS)</EpubFormatDescription> </SerialVersion> <SerialVersion> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>07</ProductIDType> <IDValue>23073748</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> <ProductForm>JB</ProductForm> </SerialVersion> </SerialPublication> <JournalIssue> <JournalVolumeNumber>11</JournalVolumeNumber> <JournalIssueNumber>1</JournalIssueNumber> <JournalIssueDesignation>Vol 11 No 1 (2023): International Journal of Endorsing Health Science Research</JournalIssueDesignation> <JournalIssueDate> <DateFormat>06</DateFormat> <Date>2023</Date> </JournalIssueDate> </JournalIssue> <ContentItem> <SequenceNumber>4</SequenceNumber> <TextItem> <PageRun> <FirstPageNumber>34</FirstPageNumber> <LastPageNumber>41</LastPageNumber> </PageRun> </TextItem> <Title textformat="00" language="eng"> <TitleType>01</TitleType> <TitleText>Assessing the relationship of psychological health with addiction to food.</TitleText> </Title> <Contributor> <SequenceNumber>1</SequenceNumber> <ContributorRole>A01</ContributorRole> <PersonName>Amaila Fazal</PersonName> <PersonNameInverted>Fazal, Amaila</PersonNameInverted> <ProfessionalAffiliation> <Affiliation>Faculty of Science, Dadabhoy Institute of Higher Education, Karachi-Pakistan.</Affiliation> </ProfessionalAffiliation> </Contributor> <Contributor> <SequenceNumber>2</SequenceNumber> <ContributorRole>A01</ContributorRole> <PersonName>Saad Ahmed Khan</PersonName> <PersonNameInverted>Khan, Saad Ahmed</PersonNameInverted> <ProfessionalAffiliation> <Affiliation>Faculty of Science, Dadabhoy Institute of Higher Education, Karachi-Pakistan.</Affiliation> </ProfessionalAffiliation> </Contributor> <Language> <LanguageRole>01</LanguageRole> <LanguageCode>eng</LanguageCode> </Language> <Subject> <SubjectSchemeIdentifier>23</SubjectSchemeIdentifier> <SubjectHeadingText>Psychological Health, Addiction, Food, Yale Food Addiction Scale.</SubjectHeadingText> </Subject> <OtherText> <TextTypeCode>01</TextTypeCode> <Text textformat="00" language="eng"> Background: Food addiction is a behavioral addiction toward foods with high fat and sugar content that leads to overeating. In clinical practice, there is no diagnosis of addiction because diagnostic criteria focus on symptoms, distress, and impairment in daily functioning. Thus, this study aimed to assess the relationship of psychological health with addiction to food.  Methodology: A self-administered questionnaire-based cross-sectional study was conducted on a total of 1200 participants aged between 15 and 60. The relationship between food addiction towards emotional and physical health was assessed using Yale Food Addiction Scale; items were rated and scored using a) a five-point Likert scale for assessing food addiction and b) a two-point scale used for assessing psychological health.  Results: It was found that most of the participants had mild food addiction (66.5%). It was found that 65.5% of participants had mild psychological problems. When the food addiction was assessed in association with the demographic variable, a significant association was found for gender (P-value=0.009), BMI (P-value=0.024), lifestyle activity (P-value= 0.038), and family history (P-value=0.000).  Conclusion: It was found that increased food addiction might lead to increased psychological problems. </Text> </OtherText>

<OtherText> <TextTypeCode>01</TextTypeCode> <Text textformat="00" language="eng"> Background: Peripheral artery disease (PAD) is highly prevalent in patients with diabetes mellitus. The ankle-brachial index (ABI) measurement is used to diagnose peripheral arterial disease, and little is known about its prevalence in asymptomatic type 2 Diabetic patients. This study aimed to determine the prevalence of subclinical peripheral artery disease in patients with type II diabetes mellitus.  Methodology: It was a descriptive study conducted at the Peshawar Institute of Medical Sciences, from Feb 2022 to Aug 2022. Two hundred sixty-four patients with type II diabetes (for more than three years) with no clinical features of peripheral arterial disease were assessed by measuring ankle brachial pressure index for subclinical peripheral arterial disease. Reading less than 0.9 was positive for peripheral artery disease in the lower limbs.  Results: Peripheral Arterial Disease was present in 115 (43.6%) patients and absent in 149 (56.4%) patients. The peripheral artery disease was significantly more in males, those with age greater than 55 years, smokers, and hypertensive patients (p-value ≤ 0.05) but was not associated with the duration of diabetes or BMI of the patient (p-value > 0.05)  Conclusion: There was a high prevalence of asymptomatic peripheral artery disease in Type 2 Diabetic patients using ankle-brachial pressure index measurement. Those with ages greater than 55 years, smokers, hypertensive, and males were particularly at higher risk. </Text> </OtherText> <PublicationDate>20230213</PublicationDate> <RelatedWork> <RelationCode>81</RelationCode> <WorkIdentifier> <WorkIDType>01</WorkIDType> <IDValue>1-91</IDValue> </WorkIdentifier> </RelatedWork> <RelatedProduct> <RelationCode>89</RelationCode> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>01</ProductIDType> <IDValue>1-91-916-g890</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> </RelatedProduct> </ContentItem> </DOISerialArticleWork> <DOISerialArticleWork> <NotificationType>06</NotificationType> <DOI>10.29052/IJEHSR.v11.i1.2023.08-16</DOI> <DOIWebsiteLink>https://aeirc-edu.com/ojs14/index.php/IJEHSR/article/view/880</DOIWebsiteLink> <DOIStructuralType>Abstraction</DOIStructuralType> <RegistrantName>Advance Educational Institute and Research Center</RegistrantName> <RegistrationAuthority>mEDRA</RegistrationAuthority> <WorkIdentifier> <WorkIDType>01</WorkIDType> <IDValue>1-91-880</IDValue> </WorkIdentifier> <SerialPublication> <SerialWork> <Title textformat="00" language="eng"> <TitleType>01</TitleType> <TitleText>International Journal of Endorsing Health Science Research (IJEHSR)</TitleText> </Title> <Publisher> <PublishingRole>01</PublishingRole> <PublisherName>Advance Educational Institute and Research Center</PublisherName> </Publisher> <CountryOfPublication>PK</CountryOfPublication> </SerialWork> <SerialVersion> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>01</ProductIDType> <IDValue>1</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>07</ProductIDType> <IDValue>23103841</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> <ProductForm>JD</ProductForm> <EpubFormat>01</EpubFormat> <EpubFormatDescription>Open Journal Systems (OJS)</EpubFormatDescription> </SerialVersion> <SerialVersion> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>07</ProductIDType> <IDValue>23073748</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> <ProductForm>JB</ProductForm> </SerialVersion> </SerialPublication> <JournalIssue> <JournalVolumeNumber>11</JournalVolumeNumber> <JournalIssueNumber>1</JournalIssueNumber> <JournalIssueDesignation>Vol 11 No 1 (2023): International Journal of Endorsing Health Science Research</JournalIssueDesignation> <JournalIssueDate> <DateFormat>06</DateFormat> <Date>2023</Date> </JournalIssueDate> </JournalIssue> <ContentItem> <SequenceNumber>1</SequenceNumber> <TextItem> <PageRun> <FirstPageNumber>08</FirstPageNumber> <LastPageNumber>16</LastPageNumber> </PageRun> </TextItem> <Title textformat="00" language="eng"> <TitleType>01</TitleType> <TitleText>Psychosocial working conditions and Burnout among Healthcare Professionals in a Tertiary Care Hospital in Karachi, Pakistan.</TitleText> </Title> <Contributor> <SequenceNumber>1</SequenceNumber> <ContributorRole>A01</ContributorRole> <PersonName>Misha Irshad</PersonName> <PersonNameInverted>Irshad, Misha</PersonNameInverted> <ProfessionalAffiliation> <Affiliation>Ziauddin University, Karachi-Pakistan.</Affiliation> </ProfessionalAffiliation> </Contributor> <Contributor> <SequenceNumber>2</SequenceNumber> <ContributorRole>A01</ContributorRole> <PersonName>Farah Ahmad</PersonName> <PersonNameInverted>Ahmad, Farah</PersonNameInverted> <ProfessionalAffiliation> <Affiliation>Ziauddin University, Karachi-Pakistan.</Affiliation> </ProfessionalAffiliation> </Contributor> <Contributor> <SequenceNumber>3</SequenceNumber> <ContributorRole>A01</ContributorRole> <PersonName>Syed Hassan Danish</PersonName> <PersonNameInverted>Danish, Syed Hassan</PersonNameInverted> <ProfessionalAffiliation> <Affiliation>Ziauddin University, Karachi-Pakistan.</Affiliation> </ProfessionalAffiliation> </Contributor> <Language> <LanguageRole>01</LanguageRole> <LanguageCode>eng</LanguageCode> </Language> <Subject> <SubjectSchemeIdentifier>23</SubjectSchemeIdentifier> <SubjectHeadingText>Psychosocial Working Conditions, Burnout, Working Conditions, Healthcare Professionals.</SubjectHeadingText> </Subject> <OtherText> <TextTypeCode>01</TextTypeCode> <Text textformat="00" language="eng"> Background: Healthcare professionals experience stressful working conditions that can lead to burnout. This study investigates the association between psychosocial working conditions and burnout among healthcare professionals in a tertiary care hospital in Karachi, Pakistan.  Methodology: This cross-sectional study was conducted at three different facilities of Dr. Ziauddin Hospital, Karachi, from July 2021 to December 2021. Two standardized surveys were used to assess the psychosocial working conditions and burnout. The selected participants were associated with the institutional healthcare facility and were working as house officers, residents, nurses, dentists, and allied health professionals.  Results: out of 384 distributed questionnaires, only 172 participants completed and returned the questionnaire. The mean score of burnouts was 46.24 with an SD value of 16.1 when assessed with the different levels of burnout (i.e., no burnout, stressed out, mild burnout, burned out, server burnout), it was found that the majority of the participants' n=56 (32.6%) had mild burnout and n=55 (32%) had burnout while severe burnout was found in n=22 (12.8%).  Conclusion: Our study results indicate that there is a significant increase in healthcare professionals' level of burnout in a tertiary care system. </Text> </OtherText> <PublicationDate>20221222</PublicationDate> <RelatedWork> <RelationCode>81</RelationCode> <WorkIdentifier> <WorkIDType>01</WorkIDType> <IDValue>1-91</IDValue> </WorkIdentifier> </RelatedWork> <RelatedProduct> <RelationCode>89</RelationCode> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>01</ProductIDType> <IDValue>1-91-880-g889</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> </RelatedProduct> </ContentItem> </DOISerialArticleWork> <DOISerialArticleWork> <NotificationType>06</NotificationType> <DOI>10.29052/IJEHSR.v10.i4.2022.379-390</DOI> <DOIWebsiteLink>https://aeirc-edu.com/ojs14/index.php/IJEHSR/article/view/915</DOIWebsiteLink> <DOIStructuralType>Abstraction</DOIStructuralType> <RegistrantName>Advance Educational Institute and Research Center</RegistrantName> <RegistrationAuthority>mEDRA</RegistrationAuthority> <WorkIdentifier> <WorkIDType>01</WorkIDType> <IDValue>1-87-915</IDValue> </WorkIdentifier> <SerialPublication> <SerialWork> <Title textformat="00" language="eng"> <TitleType>01</TitleType> <TitleText>International Journal of Endorsing Health Science Research (IJEHSR)</TitleText> </Title> <Publisher> <PublishingRole>01</PublishingRole> <PublisherName>Advance Educational Institute and Research Center</PublisherName> </Publisher> <CountryOfPublication>PK</CountryOfPublication> </SerialWork> <SerialVersion> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>01</ProductIDType> <IDValue>1</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>07</ProductIDType> <IDValue>23103841</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> <ProductForm>JD</ProductForm> <EpubFormat>01</EpubFormat> <EpubFormatDescription>Open Journal Systems (OJS)</EpubFormatDescription> </SerialVersion> <SerialVersion> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>07</ProductIDType> <IDValue>23073748</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> <ProductForm>JB</ProductForm> </SerialVersion> </SerialPublication> <JournalIssue> <JournalVolumeNumber>10</JournalVolumeNumber> <JournalIssueNumber>4</JournalIssueNumber> <JournalIssueDesignation>Vol 10 No 4 (2022): International Journal of Endorsing Health Science Research</JournalIssueDesignation> <JournalIssueDate> <DateFormat>06</DateFormat> <Date>2022</Date> </JournalIssueDate> </JournalIssue> <ContentItem> <SequenceNumber>2</SequenceNumber> <TextItem> <PageRun> <FirstPageNumber>379</FirstPageNumber> <LastPageNumber>390</LastPageNumber> </PageRun> </TextItem> <Title textformat="00" language="eng"> <TitleType>01</TitleType> <TitleText>Neuroprotective Potential of Hericium Erinaceus aqueous extract utilization in ischemia-reperfusion injury related middle cerebral artery occlusion stroke model.</TitleText> </Title> <Contributor> <SequenceNumber>1</SequenceNumber> <ContributorRole>A01</ContributorRole> <PersonName>Beenish Sohail</PersonName> <PersonNameInverted>Sohail, Beenish</PersonNameInverted> <ProfessionalAffiliation> <Affiliation>Avicenna Medical College, Lahore-Pakistan.</Affiliation> </ProfessionalAffiliation> </Contributor> <Contributor> <SequenceNumber>2</SequenceNumber> <ContributorRole>A01</ContributorRole> <PersonName>Nazish Iqbal Khan</PersonName> <PersonNameInverted>Khan, Nazish Iqbal</PersonNameInverted> <ProfessionalAffiliation> <Affiliation>Department of Physiology, University of Karachi, Karachi-Pakistan.</Affiliation> </ProfessionalAffiliation> </Contributor> <Language> <LanguageRole>01</LanguageRole> <LanguageCode>eng</LanguageCode> </Language> <Subject> <SubjectSchemeIdentifier>23</SubjectSchemeIdentifier> <SubjectHeadingText>Ischemia-Reperfusion Injury, Rats, Hericium Erinaceus</SubjectHeadingText> </Subject> <OtherText> <TextTypeCode>01</TextTypeCode> <Text textformat="00" language="eng"> Background: Globally, stroke is the elusive basis of sensory and motor impairments in humans. Multiple herbal compounds have been shown in studies to have positive therapeutic potential when used in conjunction with pharmaceutical therapies for the treatment and primary prevention of ischemic stroke. Current research investigation is planned to determine the neuro-protective potential of Hericium Erinaceus (HE) aqueous extract utilization in pre and post-middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO) model of ischemic–reperfusion injury.  Methodology: Fifty-four Wistar albino rats (200-250 gms; 10-12 weeks) were divided into four experimental groups (n=9). Group I (control); Group II (sham); Group III (MCAO) MCAO for 20-30 min then 24 hours of reperfusion; Group IV was split into three groups as subgroup I (300 mg/kg BWT of AEHE given for 7 days), subgroup II (300 mg/kg BWT of AEHE given for 7 days and then MCAO), subgroup III (at the 4th hour of MCAO induction 300mg/kg of AEHE was given). Blood and cerebral, hepatic, and renal tissue samples were preserved and evaluated for modifications in plasma lipids levels, liver-kidney levels, c-reactive protein, blood glucose, and tissue antioxidant levels. A histopathological study was done over the selected tissues.  Results: MCAO induction significantly alters the reno-hepatic profiles, c-RP levels, and animal tissue antioxidant (CAT, SOD, GSH) enzymes levels. However, HE-extract in both subgroups (Pre MCAO HE and Post MCAO HE) has significantly reduced lipid panel, glucose levels, and reno-hepatic parameters significantly. HE has effectively regulated antioxidant enzymes in cerebral, hepatic, and renal homogenates. In Pre-MCAO HE and Post-MCAO HE groups, the histopathological architecture of tissues is preserved.  Conclusion: Daily dietary consumption of HE extract in calculated quantity significantly reduces the biochemical changes related to MCAO in a rat stroke model in ischemia-reperfusion injury. </Text> </OtherText> <PublicationDate>20221201</PublicationDate> <RelatedWork>

of female lives globally, eliciting great distress in all aspects of life, i.e., physically, mentally, psychologically, psychophysiologically, etc. This review aims to demonstrate the factors impacting breast cancer patients' psychophysiological well-being and QoL after mastectomy. Human studies focusing on factors demonstrating the after-effect of mastectomy on the psychophysiological well-being and QoL among breast cancer patients were reviewed. The studies reviewed to describe the effects of mastectomy on breast cancer patients and the aftermaths of the treatment on the psychological as well as psychophysiological well-being and their QoL through different means and methods. Moreover, this review highlights the factors affecting the resiliency of breast cancer patients. The literature is briefly reviewed and includes highlights of the psychophysiological well-being and changes in QoL and an exploration of the relationship among the study variables and patients with breast cancer after mastectomy and the way they opt to improve their QoL. Although mastectomy is considered beneficial complementary therapy for women with breast cancer, it still highly affects the individual's mental and physical health. It is observed that to improve the QoL and enhance psychological and physiological well-being, breast cancer patients need to have ways to resilient themselves. The factors that help patients to achieve post-traumatic growth (PTG) and resilience include therapies, lifestyle changes, and support and care. </Text> </OtherText>

significantly worsened human health, greatly outweighing any gains associated with increasing food production. Numerous heavily fertilized crops are used as animal feed, contributing to global food inequalities and unbalanced diets, even in wealthy countries. Hazardous fertilizers have been linked to an excessive burden of communicable and non-communicable diseases, which significantly increase yields and pose considerable environmental and public health risks. The rate at which nitrogen fertilizers are applied is closely related to the buildup of toxins in the surrounding area, groundwater, and leafy and root crops. Consumption of diets including these ingredients has contributed to a significant risk to human health. </Text> </OtherText> <PublicationDate>20221201</PublicationDate> <RelatedWork> <RelationCode>81</RelationCode> <WorkIdentifier> <WorkIDType>01</WorkIDType> <IDValue>1-91</IDValue> </WorkIdentifier> </RelatedWork> <RelatedProduct> <RelationCode>89</RelationCode> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>01</ProductIDType> <IDValue>1-91-877-g895</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> </RelatedProduct> </ContentItem> </DOISerialArticleWork> <DOISerialArticleWork> <NotificationType>06</NotificationType> <DOI>10.29052/IJEHSR.v10.i4.2022.391-397</DOI> <DOIWebsiteLink>https://aeirc-edu.com/ojs14/index.php/IJEHSR/article/view/862</DOIWebsiteLink> <DOIStructuralType>Abstraction</DOIStructuralType> <RegistrantName>Advance Educational Institute and Research Center</RegistrantName> <RegistrationAuthority>mEDRA</RegistrationAuthority> <WorkIdentifier> <WorkIDType>01</WorkIDType> <IDValue>1-87-862</IDValue> </WorkIdentifier> <SerialPublication> <SerialWork> <Title textformat="00" language="eng"> <TitleType>01</TitleType> <TitleText>International Journal of Endorsing Health Science Research (IJEHSR)</TitleText> </Title> <Publisher> <PublishingRole>01</PublishingRole> <PublisherName>Advance Educational Institute and Research Center</PublisherName> </Publisher> <CountryOfPublication>PK</CountryOfPublication> </SerialWork> <SerialVersion> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>01</ProductIDType> <IDValue>1</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>07</ProductIDType> <IDValue>23103841</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> <ProductForm>JD</ProductForm> <EpubFormat>01</EpubFormat> <EpubFormatDescription>Open Journal Systems (OJS)</EpubFormatDescription> </SerialVersion> <SerialVersion> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>07</ProductIDType> <IDValue>23073748</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> <ProductForm>JB</ProductForm> </SerialVersion> </SerialPublication> <JournalIssue> <JournalVolumeNumber>10</JournalVolumeNumber> <JournalIssueNumber>4</JournalIssueNumber> <JournalIssueDesignation>Vol 10 No 4 (2022): International Journal of Endorsing Health Science Research</JournalIssueDesignation> <JournalIssueDate> <DateFormat>06</DateFormat> <Date>2022</Date> </JournalIssueDate> </JournalIssue> <ContentItem> <SequenceNumber>3</SequenceNumber> <TextItem> <PageRun> <FirstPageNumber>391</FirstPageNumber> <LastPageNumber>397</LastPageNumber> </PageRun> </TextItem> <Title textformat="00" language="eng"> <TitleType>01</TitleType> <TitleText>Evaluating the palatability of an oral nutritional supplement (Livity®): A consumer-based, cross-sectional study</TitleText> </Title> <Contributor> <SequenceNumber>1</SequenceNumber> <ContributorRole>A01</ContributorRole> <PersonName>Jahanzeb Kamal Khan</PersonName> <PersonNameInverted>Khan, Jahanzeb Kamal</PersonNameInverted> <ProfessionalAffiliation> <Affiliation>College of Physicians & Surgeons, Karachi-Pakistan.</Affiliation> </ProfessionalAffiliation> </Contributor> <Contributor> <SequenceNumber>2</SequenceNumber> <ContributorRole>A01</ContributorRole> <PersonName>Adnan Ghafoor</PersonName> <PersonNameInverted>Ghafoor, Adnan</PersonNameInverted> <ProfessionalAffiliation> <Affiliation>Fauji Foundation Hospital, Rawalpindi-Pakistan.</Affiliation> </ProfessionalAffiliation> </Contributor> <Contributor> <SequenceNumber>3</SequenceNumber> <ContributorRole>A01</ContributorRole> <PersonName>Mohammed Rehan Omar Siddiqi</PersonName> <PersonNameInverted>Omar Siddiqi, Mohammed Rehan</PersonNameInverted> <ProfessionalAffiliation> <Affiliation>United Medical & Dental College, Karachi-Pakistan.</Affiliation> </ProfessionalAffiliation> </Contributor> <Contributor> <SequenceNumber>4</SequenceNumber> <ContributorRole>A01</ContributorRole> <PersonName>Ali Nasir</PersonName> <PersonNameInverted>Nasir, Ali</PersonNameInverted> <ProfessionalAffiliation> <Affiliation>Ziauddin University, Karachi-Pakistan.</Affiliation> </ProfessionalAffiliation> </Contributor> <Contributor> <SequenceNumber>5</SequenceNumber> <ContributorRole>A01</ContributorRole> <PersonName>Unsharah Jahanzeb</PersonName> <PersonNameInverted>Jahanzeb, Unsharah</PersonNameInverted> <ProfessionalAffiliation> <Affiliation>University of Hyogo, Kobe-Japan.</Affiliation> </ProfessionalAffiliation> </Contributor> <Language> <LanguageRole>01</LanguageRole> <LanguageCode>eng</LanguageCode> </Language> <Subject> <SubjectSchemeIdentifier>23</SubjectSchemeIdentifier> <SubjectHeadingText>Oral Nutritional Supplement, Palatability, Flavor, Aroma.</SubjectHeadingText> </Subject> <OtherText> <TextTypeCode>01</TextTypeCode> <Text textformat="00" language="eng"> Background: There is a substantial global market for dietary supplements that are frequently used. These products are meant to supplement diets while also enhancing health and wellness. Fewer studies have been conducted on sensory and consumer science compared to the substantial quantity of dietary supplement research on nutrition, dietetics, and medicine. Hence the present study aimed to assess the consumer's attitude toward the physical and sensory attributes of the nutritional supplement.  Methodology: 262 consenting non-diabetic subjects of either gender≥ 40 years of age participated in this cross-sectional study. After enrollment, the subjects were requested to consume 53.8 gm of nutritional supplement dissolved in 195 ml of cold water, followed by an interview-based survey. The consumer’s preference for product sensory and physical characteristics such as appearance, taste, aroma, mouth feel, and post-consumptions feel was inquired. Preferences for the oral (Vanilla flavor) nutritional supplement (Livity®). Factors were assessed using the scoring test of a 7-point numerical scale, i.e., ranging from 1 (Strongly Disagree) to 7 (Strongly Agree).  Results: Around 66.50% of subjects valued the taste of the nutritional supplements the most, followed by flavor (13.0%), aroma (9.20%), color (5.60%), energizing effect (3.60%), mouth feel (3.10%) and aftertaste (0.50%). The mean score for all the physical and sensory parameters was higher than 5, except for grainy mouth feel (mostly perceived as a negative attribute) and energetic feeling post-consumption. Around 92.4% agreed that the mouth feel of the consumed, oral nutritional supplement was smooth, 75.8% agreed on flavor quality, 70.7% were satisfied with the taste, and 82.8% reported that the smell was pleasant.  Conclusion: It is concluded that the physical and sensory attributes of the oral nutritional supplement (Livity®) were highly rated in this consumer attitude-based survey. </Text> </OtherText> <PublicationDate>20221201</PublicationDate> <RelatedWork> <RelationCode>81</RelationCode> <WorkIdentifier> <WorkIDType>01</WorkIDType> <IDValue>1-87</IDValue> </WorkIdentifier> </RelatedWork> <RelatedProduct> <RelationCode>89</RelationCode> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>01</ProductIDType> <IDValue>1-87-862-g879</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> </RelatedProduct> </ContentItem> </DOISerialArticleWork> <DOISerialArticleWork> <NotificationType>06</NotificationType> <DOI>10.29052/IJEHSR.v10.i4.2022.441-445</DOI> <DOIWebsiteLink>https://aeirc-edu.com/ojs14/index.php/IJEHSR/article/view/864</DOIWebsiteLink> <DOIStructuralType>Abstraction</DOIStructuralType> <RegistrantName>Advance Educational Institute and Research Center</RegistrantName> <RegistrationAuthority>mEDRA</RegistrationAuthority> <WorkIdentifier> <WorkIDType>01</WorkIDType> <IDValue>1-87-864</IDValue> </WorkIdentifier> <SerialPublication> <SerialWork> <Title textformat="00" language="eng"> <TitleType>01</TitleType> <TitleText>International Journal of Endorsing Health Science Research (IJEHSR)</TitleText> </Title> <Publisher> <PublishingRole>01</PublishingRole> <PublisherName>Advance Educational Institute and Research Center</PublisherName> </Publisher> <CountryOfPublication>PK</CountryOfPublication> </SerialWork> <SerialVersion> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>01</ProductIDType> <IDValue>1</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>07</ProductIDType> <IDValue>23103841</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> <ProductForm>JD</ProductForm> <EpubFormat>01</EpubFormat> <EpubFormatDescription>Open Journal Systems (OJS)</EpubFormatDescription> </SerialVersion> <SerialVersion> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>07</ProductIDType> <IDValue>23073748</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> <ProductForm>JB</ProductForm> </SerialVersion> </SerialPublication> <JournalIssue> <JournalVolumeNumber>10</JournalVolumeNumber> <JournalIssueNumber>4</JournalIssueNumber> <JournalIssueDesignation>Vol 10 No 4 (2022): International Journal of Endorsing Health Science Research</JournalIssueDesignation> <JournalIssueDate> <DateFormat>06</DateFormat> <Date>2022</Date> </JournalIssueDate> </JournalIssue> <ContentItem> <SequenceNumber>3</SequenceNumber> <TextItem> <PageRun> <FirstPageNumber>441</FirstPageNumber> <LastPageNumber>445</LastPageNumber> </PageRun> </TextItem> <Title textformat="00" language="eng"> <TitleType>01</TitleType> <TitleText>Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation (TDCS).</TitleText> </Title> <Contributor> <SequenceNumber>1</SequenceNumber> <ContributorRole>A01</ContributorRole> <PersonName>Yusra Saleem</PersonName> <PersonNameInverted>Saleem, Yusra</PersonNameInverted> <ProfessionalAffiliation> <Affiliation>Malir University of Science & Technology, Karachi-Pakistan.</Affiliation> </ProfessionalAffiliation> </Contributor> <Contributor> <SequenceNumber>2</SequenceNumber> <ContributorRole>A01</ContributorRole> <PersonName>Komal .</PersonName> <PersonNameInverted>., Komal</PersonNameInverted> <ProfessionalAffiliation> <Affiliation>University of Northampton, Northampton-United Kingdom.</Affiliation> </ProfessionalAffiliation> </Contributor> <Contributor> <SequenceNumber>3</SequenceNumber> <ContributorRole>A01</ContributorRole> <PersonName>Stephen Riaz</PersonName> <PersonNameInverted>Riaz, Stephen</PersonNameInverted> <ProfessionalAffiliation> <Affiliation>NHS Sandwell and West Birmingham Hospital, Birmingham-United Kingdom.</Affiliation> </ProfessionalAffiliation> </Contributor> <Language> <LanguageRole>01</LanguageRole> <LanguageCode>eng</LanguageCode> </Language> <Subject> <SubjectSchemeIdentifier>23</SubjectSchemeIdentifier> <SubjectHeadingText>Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation, Neuromodulatory, Depression, Cognition.</SubjectHeadingText> </Subject> <OtherText> <TextTypeCode>01</TextTypeCode> <Text textformat="00" language="eng"> Transcranial direct current stimulation (TDCS) is a neuromodulatory device that is used for its ability to enhance cognitive and behavioral performance. Human studies suggest that TDCS modulates cortical excitability during stimulation by nonsynaptic changes of the cells, along with evidence that the after-effects of TDCS are driven by synaptic modification. TDCS represents a potential intervention to enhance cognition across clinical populations, including mild cognitive impairment among psychological and neurological disorders. Studies suggest that TDCS might be helpful in treating depression with appropriate current, size of electrodes, and employment of montages. TDCS opens a new perspective in treating major depressive disorder (MDD) because of its ability to modulate cortical excitability and induce long-lasting effects. </Text> </OtherText> <PublicationDate>20221125</PublicationDate> <RelatedWork> <RelationCode>81</RelationCode> <WorkIdentifier> <WorkIDType>01</WorkIDType> <IDValue>1-87</IDValue> </WorkIdentifier> </RelatedWork> <RelatedProduct> <RelationCode>89</RelationCode> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>01</ProductIDType> <IDValue>1-87-864-g886</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> </RelatedProduct> </ContentItem> </DOISerialArticleWork> <DOISerialArticleWork> <NotificationType>06</NotificationType> <DOI>10.29052/IJEHSR.v10.i4.2022.416-421</DOI> <DOIWebsiteLink>https://aeirc-edu.com/ojs14/index.php/IJEHSR/article/view/906</DOIWebsiteLink> <DOIStructuralType>Abstraction</DOIStructuralType> <RegistrantName>Advance Educational Institute and Research Center</RegistrantName> <RegistrationAuthority>mEDRA</RegistrationAuthority> <WorkIdentifier> <WorkIDType>01</WorkIDType> <IDValue>1-87-906</IDValue> </WorkIdentifier> <SerialPublication> <SerialWork> <Title textformat="00" language="eng"> <TitleType>01</TitleType> <TitleText>International Journal of Endorsing Health Science Research (IJEHSR)</TitleText> </Title> <Publisher> <PublishingRole>01</PublishingRole> <PublisherName>Advance Educational Institute and Research Center</PublisherName> </Publisher> <CountryOfPublication>PK</CountryOfPublication> </SerialWork> <SerialVersion> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>01</ProductIDType> <IDValue>1</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>07</ProductIDType> <IDValue>23103841</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> <ProductForm>JD</ProductForm> <EpubFormat>01</EpubFormat> <EpubFormatDescription>Open Journal Systems (OJS)</EpubFormatDescription> </SerialVersion> <SerialVersion> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>07</ProductIDType> <IDValue>23073748</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> <ProductForm>JB</ProductForm> </SerialVersion> </SerialPublication> <JournalIssue> <JournalVolumeNumber>10</JournalVolumeNumber> <JournalIssueNumber>4</JournalIssueNumber> <JournalIssueDesignation>Vol 10 No 4 (2022): International Journal of Endorsing Health Science Research</JournalIssueDesignation> <JournalIssueDate> <DateFormat>06</DateFormat> <Date>2022</Date> </JournalIssueDate> </JournalIssue> <ContentItem> <SequenceNumber>7</SequenceNumber> <TextItem> <PageRun> <FirstPageNumber>416</FirstPageNumber> <LastPageNumber>421</LastPageNumber> </PageRun> </TextItem> <Title textformat="00" language="eng"> <TitleType>01</TitleType> <TitleText>Comparison of stone clearance rate and need of nephrostomy in conventional versus mini percutaneous nephrolithotomy.</TitleText> </Title> <Contributor> <SequenceNumber>1</SequenceNumber> <ContributorRole>A01</ContributorRole> <PersonName>Muhammad Jafar</PersonName> <PersonNameInverted>Jafar, Muhammad</PersonNameInverted> <ProfessionalAffiliation> <Affiliation>Pakistan Institute of Medical Sciences, Islamabad-Pakistan.</Affiliation> </ProfessionalAffiliation> </Contributor> <Contributor> <SequenceNumber>2</SequenceNumber> <ContributorRole>A01</ContributorRole> <PersonName>Wajid Ali Syed</PersonName> <PersonNameInverted>Syed, Wajid Ali</PersonNameInverted> <ProfessionalAffiliation> <Affiliation>Department of Urology, Muhammad Medical College, Mirpur Khas-Pakistan.</Affiliation> </ProfessionalAffiliation> </Contributor> <Contributor> <SequenceNumber>3</SequenceNumber> <ContributorRole>A01</ContributorRole> <PersonName>Sana Khalid</PersonName> <PersonNameInverted>Khalid, Sana</PersonNameInverted> <ProfessionalAffiliation> <Affiliation>Bahria University Medical and Dental College, Karachi-Pakistan.</Affiliation> </ProfessionalAffiliation> </Contributor> <Language> <LanguageRole>01</LanguageRole> <LanguageCode>eng</LanguageCode> </Language> <Subject> <SubjectSchemeIdentifier>23</SubjectSchemeIdentifier> <SubjectHeadingText>Percutaneous Nephrolithotomy, Mini PCNL, Renal Stones, Nephrostomy.</SubjectHeadingText> </Subject> <OtherText> <TextTypeCode>01</TextTypeCode> <Text textformat="00" language="eng"> Background: The increased renal stone size affects the stone clearance rate and the need for nephrostomy in (Percutaneous nephrolithotomy) PCNL. Also, complete stone clearance of bulky renal calculi causes blood loss during PCNL, resulting in hemoglobin drop and sometimes requiring transfusion. This is a frequently encountered phenomenon and is quite problematic for urologists and patients. This study aimed to determine the rate of stone clearance and nephrostomy needed in Mini-PCNL over Conventional PCNL.  Methodology: A comparative study was conducted at the urology department of PIMS, Islamabad. A total of eighty (n=80) adult patients of either gender between ages 18-65 years were enrolled. Subjects enrolled had radiographic evidence of renal stones of > 1cm. Group A patients underwent conventional PCNL procedures, and Group B patients underwent Mini PNCL. The rates of stone clearance nephrostomy needed were compared between the two study groups.  Results: The mean age of study participants in group A was (33.7 ± 12.1) and in group B (36.5 ± 11.1). The mean sizes of the stone were 2.4 cm and 2.7 cm in groups A and B, respectively. X-rays were used to assess the stone clearance rate on the first operative day in both study groups. Stones were cleared in group-A at 87.5% (n=35) and in group B at 82.5% (n=33). Nephrostomy was needed in group A at 50.0% (n=20) and in group B at 47.5% (n=19).  Conclusion: The stone clearance rate and the need for a nephrostomy tube were nearly similar in both intervention groups. </Text> </OtherText> <PublicationDate>20221111</PublicationDate> <RelatedWork> <RelationCode>81</RelationCode> <WorkIdentifier> <WorkIDType>01</WorkIDType> <IDValue>1-87</IDValue>

pathology, is responsible for a great number of neonatal deaths. Besides targeting vital organs of the body, the associated systemic oxygen deprivation is responsible for the hemodynamic rearrangement and, consequently, the development of various coagulopathies. The present study is aimed to assess the alteration in the coagulation profile of babies born with birth asphyxia.  Methodology: A six-month cross-sectional research on newborns (with a gestational age of 30 to 42 weeks and birth asphyxia) was conducted in a hospital setting. A total of 96 newborns meeting the inclusion criteria were considered for the study. The blood samples were collected for the determination of prothrombin time (PT), activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT), and international normalized ratio (INR).  Results: The studied cohort comprised 54 (54.2%) females, and the mean age of the newborns was 12.53 ± 3.58 hours. The mean PT and APTT in the asphyxic newborns were 22.58 ± 10.22 and 37.67 ±10.25 seconds, respectively, while the INR was 2.12 ± 0.96. The deranged PT and APTT were observed in 60 (62.5%) and 32 (33.3%) newborns. The deranged INR was observed in 21 (21.9%). Further, the maternal use of antiepileptics and anticoagulant drugs was not traced in any studied subjects.  Conclusion: A significant number of newborns with birth asphyxia presented with a deranged coagulation profile. However, the maximum frequency for derangement was obtained for the PT, followed by the APTT. </Text> </OtherText> <PublicationDate>20221108</PublicationDate> <RelatedWork> <RelationCode>81</RelationCode> <WorkIdentifier> <WorkIDType>01</WorkIDType> <IDValue>1-87</IDValue> </WorkIdentifier> </RelatedWork> <RelatedProduct> <RelationCode>89</RelationCode> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>01</ProductIDType> <IDValue>1-87-891-g882</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> </RelatedProduct> </ContentItem> </DOISerialArticleWork> <DOISerialArticleWork> <NotificationType>06</NotificationType> <DOI>10.29052/IJEHSR.v10.i4.2022.433-440</DOI> <DOIWebsiteLink>https://aeirc-edu.com/ojs14/index.php/IJEHSR/article/view/860</DOIWebsiteLink> <DOIStructuralType>Abstraction</DOIStructuralType> <RegistrantName>Advance Educational Institute and Research Center</RegistrantName> <RegistrationAuthority>mEDRA</RegistrationAuthority> <WorkIdentifier> <WorkIDType>01</WorkIDType> <IDValue>1-87-860</IDValue> </WorkIdentifier> <SerialPublication> <SerialWork> <Title textformat="00" language="eng"> <TitleType>01</TitleType> <TitleText>International Journal of Endorsing Health Science Research (IJEHSR)</TitleText> </Title> <Publisher> <PublishingRole>01</PublishingRole> <PublisherName>Advance Educational Institute and Research Center</PublisherName> </Publisher> <CountryOfPublication>PK</CountryOfPublication> </SerialWork> <SerialVersion> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>01</ProductIDType> <IDValue>1</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>07</ProductIDType> <IDValue>23103841</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> <ProductForm>JD</ProductForm> <EpubFormat>01</EpubFormat> <EpubFormatDescription>Open Journal Systems (OJS)</EpubFormatDescription> </SerialVersion> <SerialVersion> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>07</ProductIDType> <IDValue>23073748</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> <ProductForm>JB</ProductForm> </SerialVersion> </SerialPublication> <JournalIssue> <JournalVolumeNumber>10</JournalVolumeNumber> <JournalIssueNumber>4</JournalIssueNumber> <JournalIssueDesignation>Vol 10 No 4 (2022): International Journal of Endorsing Health Science Research</JournalIssueDesignation> <JournalIssueDate> <DateFormat>06</DateFormat> <Date>2022</Date> </JournalIssueDate> </JournalIssue> <ContentItem> <SequenceNumber>2</SequenceNumber> <TextItem> <PageRun> <FirstPageNumber>433</FirstPageNumber> <LastPageNumber>440</LastPageNumber> </PageRun> </TextItem> <Title textformat="00" language="eng"> <TitleType>01</TitleType> <TitleText>Cauda Equina Syndrome Clinical Guidelines Review</TitleText> </Title> <Contributor> <SequenceNumber>1</SequenceNumber> <ContributorRole>A01</ContributorRole> <PersonName>Shashikant Bhasme</PersonName> <PersonNameInverted>Bhasme, Shashikant</PersonNameInverted> <ProfessionalAffiliation> <Affiliation>General Medical Practitioner, Montague Medical Practice, Goole.</Affiliation> </ProfessionalAffiliation> </Contributor> <Contributor> <SequenceNumber>2</SequenceNumber> <ContributorRole>A01</ContributorRole> <PersonName>Qaiser Shahzad Chishty</PersonName> <PersonNameInverted>Chishty, Qaiser Shahzad</PersonNameInverted> <ProfessionalAffiliation> <Affiliation>Medical University of Sofia, Bulgaria.</Affiliation> </ProfessionalAffiliation> </Contributor> <Language> <LanguageRole>01</LanguageRole> <LanguageCode>eng</LanguageCode> </Language> <Subject> <SubjectSchemeIdentifier>23</SubjectSchemeIdentifier> <SubjectHeadingText>COVID 19, Pandemic, Cauda Equina Syndrome, Clinical Guidelines, National Health Services.</SubjectHeadingText> </Subject> <OtherText> <TextTypeCode>01</TextTypeCode> <Text textformat="00" language="eng"> In the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic, the national health services (NHS) had to adopt certain measures to amicably respond to the pandemic on the domestic front. Among these was the suspension of direct patient and physician interface to the extent possible, and the consultations were minimized to telecommunication. This review article aims to share the critical insights of current urgent care practice at the forefront of the advanced practice agenda that deals with complex issues both systematically and creatively, makes sound judgments in the absence of complete data, and communicates conclusions. Moreover, this review also highlights the originality in the application of knowledge, together with a practical understanding of local and national policy and drivers to support and develop an advanced practice that helps to critically evaluate current research and advanced scholarship in advanced practice. </Text> </OtherText> <PublicationDate>20221103</PublicationDate> <RelatedWork>

bacterial infections. This cross-sectional study was conducted to detect the infection trends and antibiotic susceptibility patterns of patients attending the Burdwan medical college and hospital (BMCH), West Bengal.  Methodology: A prospective study was conducted for six months, from August 2021 to January 2022, at the department of microbiology (BMCH), West Bengal. Isolation of bacteria and fungus was performed from clinical samples obtained from patients attending the department of the ear, nose, and throat (ENT) of BMCH. A total of 84 samples were collected from patients with suspected ENT infections. Types of samples taken include pus, fluid, tissue, and throat, nasal, and ear swabs.  Results: Bacterial growth was observed in 55(65.47%), of which gram-positive and gram-negative bacterial isolates were found in 31(56.36%) and 21(38.18%) samples, respectively. 3(5.45%) gram-positive bacilli were grown, and 14(16.66%) samples were positive for fungal growth.  Conclusion: Antibiogram of gram-positive isolates showed maximum susceptibility to vancomycin and least to ciprofloxacin, whereas gram-negative isolates showed maximum susceptibility to amikacin and least to ciprofloxacin.

a more rapid return to their daily activities. The current study aims to evaluate knowledge, awareness, and practice on using pre-emptive analgesia during surgical procedures among private dental practitioners in Karachi, Pakistan.  Methodology: This survey-based descriptive study was conducted among private dental practitioners working in Karachi, Pakistan. The questionnaire has been designed to assess knowledge, awareness, and practice regarding the usage of pre-emptive analgesia. Part one focused on the socio-demographic characteristics of the participants, including age, gender, and level of experience. While Part two comprises ten multiple-choice questions regarding the knowledge, awareness, and practice of pre-emptive analgesia among private dental practitioners. The survey instrument was a self-administered questionnaire in the English language, and the questionnaire form was sent electronically to the study participants.  Results: About 98(74.2%) of participants are aware of pre-emptive analgesia usage during surgical procedures, but only 78(59.1%) practitioners know the mechanism of action of pre-emptive analgesia. While. Diclofenac sodium 35(26.5%) is most commonly used by private dental practitioners as pre-emptive analgesia.  Conclusion: The knowledge of oral pre-emptive analgesia was limited among dental practitioners. Most of them know that pre-emptive analgesics are used during oral surgical procedures, but many practitioners don't know their mechanism of action and method of administration. </Text> </OtherText> <PublicationDate>20221031</PublicationDate> <RelatedWork> <RelationCode>81</RelationCode> <WorkIdentifier> <WorkIDType>01</WorkIDType> <IDValue>1-87</IDValue> </WorkIdentifier> </RelatedWork> <RelatedProduct> <RelationCode>89</RelationCode> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>01</ProductIDType> <IDValue>1-87-861-g876</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> </RelatedProduct> </ContentItem> </DOISerialArticleWork> <DOISerialArticleWork> <NotificationType>06</NotificationType> <DOI>10.29052/IJEHSR.v10.i4.2022.422-432</DOI> <DOIWebsiteLink>https://aeirc-edu.com/ojs14/index.php/IJEHSR/article/view/856</DOIWebsiteLink> <DOIStructuralType>Abstraction</DOIStructuralType> <RegistrantName>Advance Educational Institute and Research Center</RegistrantName> <RegistrationAuthority>mEDRA</RegistrationAuthority> <WorkIdentifier> <WorkIDType>01</WorkIDType> <IDValue>1-87-856</IDValue> </WorkIdentifier> <SerialPublication> <SerialWork> <Title textformat="00" language="eng"> <TitleType>01</TitleType> <TitleText>International Journal of Endorsing Health Science Research (IJEHSR)</TitleText> </Title> <Publisher> <PublishingRole>01</PublishingRole> <PublisherName>Advance Educational Institute and Research Center</PublisherName> </Publisher> <CountryOfPublication>PK</CountryOfPublication> </SerialWork> <SerialVersion> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>01</ProductIDType> <IDValue>1</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>07</ProductIDType> <IDValue>23103841</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> <ProductForm>JD</ProductForm> <EpubFormat>01</EpubFormat> <EpubFormatDescription>Open Journal Systems (OJS)</EpubFormatDescription> </SerialVersion> <SerialVersion> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>07</ProductIDType> <IDValue>23073748</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> <ProductForm>JB</ProductForm> </SerialVersion> </SerialPublication> <JournalIssue> <JournalVolumeNumber>10</JournalVolumeNumber> <JournalIssueNumber>4</JournalIssueNumber> <JournalIssueDesignation>Vol 10 No 4 (2022): International Journal of Endorsing Health Science Research</JournalIssueDesignation> <JournalIssueDate> <DateFormat>06</DateFormat> <Date>2022</Date> </JournalIssueDate> </JournalIssue> <ContentItem> <SequenceNumber>1</SequenceNumber> <TextItem> <PageRun> <FirstPageNumber>422</FirstPageNumber> <LastPageNumber>432</LastPageNumber> </PageRun> </TextItem> <Title textformat="00" language="eng"> <TitleType>01</TitleType> <TitleText>History Taking, Assessment, and Diagnosis of Patients with Cardiovascular Diseases-Re-defining the Clinical Skills.</TitleText> </Title> <Contributor> <SequenceNumber>1</SequenceNumber> <ContributorRole>A01</ContributorRole> <PersonName>Shadab Kazi</PersonName> <PersonNameInverted>Kazi, Shadab</PersonNameInverted> <ProfessionalAffiliation> <Affiliation>Department of Cardiothoracic Surgery, Tabba Heart Institute, Karachi-Pakistan.</Affiliation> </ProfessionalAffiliation> </Contributor> <Contributor> <SequenceNumber>2</SequenceNumber> <ContributorRole>A01</ContributorRole> <PersonName>Abdul Azeem Khan</PersonName> <PersonNameInverted>Khan, Abdul Azeem</PersonNameInverted> <ProfessionalAffiliation> <Affiliation>Department of Cardiothoracic Surgery, Tabba Heart Institute, Karachi-Pakistan.</Affiliation> </ProfessionalAffiliation> </Contributor> <Contributor> <SequenceNumber>3</SequenceNumber> <ContributorRole>A01</ContributorRole> <PersonName>Ahson Memon</PersonName> <PersonNameInverted>Memon, Ahson</PersonNameInverted> <ProfessionalAffiliation> <Affiliation>Department of Cardiothoracic Surgery, Tabba Heart Institute, Karachi-Pakistan.</Affiliation> </ProfessionalAffiliation> </Contributor> <Language> <LanguageRole>01</LanguageRole> <LanguageCode>eng</LanguageCode> </Language> <Subject> <SubjectSchemeIdentifier>23</SubjectSchemeIdentifier> <SubjectHeadingText>History and Examination, Cardiovascular</SubjectHeadingText> </Subject> <OtherText> <TextTypeCode>01</TextTypeCode> <Text textformat="00" language="eng"> Cardiovascular diseases are among the top leading causes of death worldwide. Most of the time, the patients present with no symptoms, or some symptoms resemble other diseases. This makes most cases challenging for physicians and healthcare workers to diagnose. Besides this, most of the time, not diagnosing the patient on time or delay in the start of intervention is the main cause of death in cardiovascular diseases. Proper history and examination can play a crucial role in this part. History taken in properly can help in reaching the diagnosis. Apart from this, it also helps in the start of empirical therapy. This is where most clinicians are lacking. Waiting for the labs is still time-wasting in other health issues, but it can be killing in cardiac patients. Thus the cardiologist needs to start with a good history and then go on with examinations. Then confirm their findings with the proper labs. This narrows down the diagnosis and saves a lot of time. History-taking is the most important clinical step in the management of patients. But most of the time, it is underrated, and most clinicians rely on labs rather than these basic skills. This article thus reviews the importance of history-taking in diagnosing patients with cardiovascular diseases. Besides this, it also addresses how a good history should be taken to narrow down the diagnosis and reach the proper diagnosis within time to save a patient's life. </Text> </OtherText> <PublicationDate>20221026</PublicationDate> <RelatedWork> <RelationCode>81</RelationCode> <WorkIdentifier> <WorkIDType>01</WorkIDType> <IDValue>1-87</IDValue> </WorkIdentifier> </RelatedWork> <RelatedProduct> <RelationCode>89</RelationCode> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>01</ProductIDType> <IDValue>1-87-856-g884</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> </RelatedProduct> </ContentItem> </DOISerialArticleWork> <DOISerialArticleWork> <NotificationType>06</NotificationType> <DOI>10.29052/IJEHSR.v10.i4.2022.398-403</DOI> <DOIWebsiteLink>https://aeirc-edu.com/ojs14/index.php/IJEHSR/article/view/879</DOIWebsiteLink> <DOIStructuralType>Abstraction</DOIStructuralType> <RegistrantName>Advance Educational Institute and Research Center</RegistrantName> <RegistrationAuthority>mEDRA</RegistrationAuthority> <WorkIdentifier> <WorkIDType>01</WorkIDType> <IDValue>1-87-879</IDValue> </WorkIdentifier> <SerialPublication> <SerialWork> <Title textformat="00" language="eng"> <TitleType>01</TitleType> <TitleText>International Journal of Endorsing Health Science Research (IJEHSR)</TitleText> </Title> <Publisher> <PublishingRole>01</PublishingRole> <PublisherName>Advance Educational Institute and Research Center</PublisherName> </Publisher> <CountryOfPublication>PK</CountryOfPublication> </SerialWork> <SerialVersion> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>01</ProductIDType> <IDValue>1</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>07</ProductIDType> <IDValue>23103841</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> <ProductForm>JD</ProductForm> <EpubFormat>01</EpubFormat> <EpubFormatDescription>Open Journal Systems (OJS)</EpubFormatDescription> </SerialVersion> <SerialVersion> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>07</ProductIDType> <IDValue>23073748</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> <ProductForm>JB</ProductForm> </SerialVersion> </SerialPublication> <JournalIssue> <JournalVolumeNumber>10</JournalVolumeNumber> <JournalIssueNumber>4</JournalIssueNumber> <JournalIssueDesignation>Vol 10 No 4 (2022): International Journal of Endorsing Health Science Research</JournalIssueDesignation> <JournalIssueDate> <DateFormat>06</DateFormat> <Date>2022</Date> </JournalIssueDate> </JournalIssue> <ContentItem> <SequenceNumber>4</SequenceNumber> <TextItem> <PageRun> <FirstPageNumber>398</FirstPageNumber> <LastPageNumber>403</LastPageNumber> </PageRun> </TextItem> <Title textformat="00" language="eng"> <TitleType>01</TitleType> <TitleText>Operation room conflicts and management.</TitleText> </Title> <Contributor> <SequenceNumber>1</SequenceNumber> <ContributorRole>A01</ContributorRole> <PersonName>Bushra Alizah Khan</PersonName> <PersonNameInverted>Khan, Bushra Alizah</PersonNameInverted> <ProfessionalAffiliation> <Affiliation>Tabba Heart Institute, Karachi-Pakistan.</Affiliation> </ProfessionalAffiliation> </Contributor> <Contributor> <SequenceNumber>2</SequenceNumber> <ContributorRole>A01</ContributorRole> <PersonName>Muhammad Arif</PersonName> <PersonNameInverted>Arif, Muhammad</PersonNameInverted> <ProfessionalAffiliation> <Affiliation>Tabba Heart Institute, Karachi-Pakistan.</Affiliation> </ProfessionalAffiliation> </Contributor> <Contributor> <SequenceNumber>3</SequenceNumber> <ContributorRole>A01</ContributorRole> <PersonName>Ahson Memon</PersonName> <PersonNameInverted>Memon, Ahson</PersonNameInverted> <ProfessionalAffiliation> <Affiliation>Tabba Heart Institute, Karachi-Pakistan.</Affiliation> </ProfessionalAffiliation> </Contributor> <Contributor> <SequenceNumber>4</SequenceNumber> <ContributorRole>A01</ContributorRole> <PersonName>Atif Sharjeel</PersonName> <PersonNameInverted>Sharjeel, Atif</PersonNameInverted> <ProfessionalAffiliation> <Affiliation>Tabba Heart Institute, Karachi-Pakistan.</Affiliation> </ProfessionalAffiliation> </Contributor> <Language> <LanguageRole>01</LanguageRole> <LanguageCode>eng</LanguageCode> </Language> <Subject> <SubjectSchemeIdentifier>23</SubjectSchemeIdentifier> <SubjectHeadingText>Operation Theater, Conflicts, Management, Hospitals, Healthcare.</SubjectHeadingText> </Subject> <OtherText> <TextTypeCode>01</TextTypeCode> <Text textformat="00" language="eng"> Background: This study is based on management issues within the healthcare sector in Karachi. Specifically, it is focused on managing conflicts in the operation rooms, whereby team performance of Operation Theatre staff directly impacts patients' speedy recovery.  Methodology: A quantitative survey was conducted involving the surgeons and Operation Theatre staff in Karachi's community hospitals. A closed-ended questionnaire was used in this study, and the questions mainly focused on the conflicts and management of doctors and staff in the operation theatre. Only those doctors and staff members included in the study who is currently working in the operation theatre division of the hospital. a Pearson correlation analysis was performed to assess the relationships between the factors affecting conflicts in the hospital's operating room.  Results: The results indicated that the extent of conflict management is high. Factors include communication, leadership, training, adequate compensation, and role identification as perceived by employees. After performing OLS regression tests, the study found that the variable of miscommunication, the communication gap, plays a crucial role in accelerating disagreements of conflicts in Operation Theatre.  Conclusion: A significant positive association between the factors and conflict management is observed. It suggests that operation theatre-related factors are improving with better conflict management practices. </Text> </OtherText> <PublicationDate>20221022</PublicationDate> <RelatedWork> <RelationCode>81</RelationCode> <WorkIdentifier> <WorkIDType>01</WorkIDType> <IDValue>1-87</IDValue> </WorkIdentifier> </RelatedWork> <RelatedProduct> <RelationCode>89</RelationCode> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>01</ProductIDType> <IDValue>1-87-879-g880</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> </RelatedProduct> </ContentItem> </DOISerialArticleWork> <DOISerialArticleWork> <NotificationType>06</NotificationType> <DOI>10.29052/IJEHSR.v10.i3.2022.319-327</DOI> <DOIWebsiteLink>https://aeirc-edu.com/ojs14/index.php/IJEHSR/article/view/888</DOIWebsiteLink> <DOIStructuralType>Abstraction</DOIStructuralType> <RegistrantName>Advance Educational Institute and Research Center</RegistrantName> <RegistrationAuthority>mEDRA</RegistrationAuthority> <WorkIdentifier> <WorkIDType>01</WorkIDType> <IDValue>1-85-888</IDValue> </WorkIdentifier> <SerialPublication> <SerialWork> <Title textformat="00" language="eng"> <TitleType>01</TitleType> <TitleText>International Journal of Endorsing Health Science Research (IJEHSR)</TitleText> </Title> <Publisher> <PublishingRole>01</PublishingRole> <PublisherName>Advance Educational Institute and Research Center</PublisherName> </Publisher> <CountryOfPublication>PK</CountryOfPublication> </SerialWork> <SerialVersion> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>01</ProductIDType> <IDValue>1</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>07</ProductIDType> <IDValue>23103841</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> <ProductForm>JD</ProductForm> <EpubFormat>01</EpubFormat> <EpubFormatDescription>Open Journal Systems (OJS)</EpubFormatDescription> </SerialVersion> <SerialVersion> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>07</ProductIDType> <IDValue>23073748</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> <ProductForm>JB</ProductForm> </SerialVersion> </SerialPublication> <JournalIssue> <JournalVolumeNumber>10</JournalVolumeNumber> <JournalIssueNumber>3</JournalIssueNumber> <JournalIssueDesignation>Vol 10 No 3 (2022): International Journal of Endorsing Health Science Research</JournalIssueDesignation> <JournalIssueDate> <DateFormat>06</DateFormat> <Date>2022</Date> </JournalIssueDate> </JournalIssue> <ContentItem> <SequenceNumber>7</SequenceNumber> <TextItem> <PageRun> <FirstPageNumber>319</FirstPageNumber> <LastPageNumber>327</LastPageNumber> </PageRun> </TextItem> <Title textformat="00" language="eng"> <TitleType>01</TitleType> <TitleText>Non-invasive indicators of skin aging; A study on the population of Karachi using SCINEXA</TitleText> </Title> <Contributor> <SequenceNumber>1</SequenceNumber> <ContributorRole>A01</ContributorRole> <PersonName>Faizan Mirza</PersonName> <PersonNameInverted>Mirza, Faizan</PersonNameInverted> <ProfessionalAffiliation> <Affiliation>Department of Physiology, University of Karachi, Karachi-Pakistan</Affiliation> </ProfessionalAffiliation> </Contributor> <Contributor> <SequenceNumber>2</SequenceNumber> <ContributorRole>A01</ContributorRole> <PersonName>Amaila Fazal</PersonName> <PersonNameInverted>Fazal, Amaila</PersonNameInverted> <ProfessionalAffiliation> <Affiliation>Department of Physiology, University of Karachi, Karachi-Pakistan</Affiliation> </ProfessionalAffiliation> </Contributor> <Contributor> <SequenceNumber>3</SequenceNumber> <ContributorRole>A01</ContributorRole> <PersonName>Sadaf Ahmed</PersonName> <PersonNameInverted>Ahmed, Sadaf</PersonNameInverted> <ProfessionalAffiliation> <Affiliation>Psychophysiology Research Lab, MAHQ Biological Research Centre, University of Karachi, Karachi-Pakistan.</Affiliation> </ProfessionalAffiliation> </Contributor> <Language> <LanguageRole>01</LanguageRole> <LanguageCode>eng</LanguageCode> </Language> <Subject> <SubjectSchemeIdentifier>23</SubjectSchemeIdentifier> <SubjectHeadingText>Aging, SCINEXA, skin aging, pigmentation, accelerated aging, wrinkles.</SubjectHeadingText> </Subject> <OtherText> <TextTypeCode>01</TextTypeCode> <Text textformat="00" language="eng"> Background: Skin, the most visible human entity, quickly displays emotional, physical, and psychological well-being. Research has shown a linear correlation between both types of skin aging within 30–69 years. Thus, the current research study aimed to highlight the use of SCINEXA, the novel skin aging score, in predicting accelerated biological aging.  Methodology: This cross-sectional study was conducted in Karachi, Pakistan, from 8th October 2021 to 4th December 2021. Both male and female subjects of age groups from 19 to 69 years were included. A novel skin aging score, 'SCINEXA' (Score of Intrinsic and Extrinsic Skin Aging), was used to assess skin aging. Both extrinsic and intrinsic signs were analyzed in terms of pigmented spots, coarse wrinkles, solar elastosis, telangiectasia, and laxity & seborrheic keratosis, respectively.  Results: The SCINEXA score indicated that 91.3% of participants had low aging signs and decreased pigmentation, while 2.9% had relatively high pigmentation on the forehead, cheek, forearm, and back of the hand. Coarse Wrinkles of grade 5 on the forehead were present among 19.7% of individuals, and 20.6% showed the same in the crow feet area. The skin aging symptoms are most significantly associated with age (p<0.05).  Conclusion: Accelerated biological aging is not found in the studied population using the SCINEXA tool; therefore, the studied population's skin has been found resilient to photo-aging. </Text> </OtherText> <PublicationDate>20220901</PublicationDate> <RelatedWork> <RelationCode>81</RelationCode> <WorkIdentifier> <WorkIDType>01</WorkIDType> <IDValue>1-85</IDValue> </WorkIdentifier> </RelatedWork> <RelatedProduct> <RelationCode>89</RelationCode> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>01</ProductIDType> <IDValue>1-85-888-g858</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> </RelatedProduct> </ContentItem> </DOISerialArticleWork> <DOISerialArticleWork> <NotificationType>06</NotificationType> <DOI>10.29052/IJEHSR.v10.i3.2022.296-303</DOI> <DOIWebsiteLink>https://aeirc-edu.com/ojs14/index.php/IJEHSR/article/view/865</DOIWebsiteLink> <DOIStructuralType>Abstraction</DOIStructuralType> <RegistrantName>Advance Educational Institute and Research Center</RegistrantName> <RegistrationAuthority>mEDRA</RegistrationAuthority> <WorkIdentifier> <WorkIDType>01</WorkIDType> <IDValue>1-85-865</IDValue> </WorkIdentifier> <SerialPublication> <SerialWork> <Title textformat="00" language="eng"> <TitleType>01</TitleType> <TitleText>International Journal of Endorsing Health Science Research (IJEHSR)</TitleText> </Title> <Publisher> <PublishingRole>01</PublishingRole> <PublisherName>Advance Educational Institute and Research Center</PublisherName> </Publisher> <CountryOfPublication>PK</CountryOfPublication> </SerialWork> <SerialVersion> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>01</ProductIDType> <IDValue>1</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>07</ProductIDType> <IDValue>23103841</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> <ProductForm>JD</ProductForm> <EpubFormat>01</EpubFormat> <EpubFormatDescription>Open Journal Systems (OJS)</EpubFormatDescription> </SerialVersion> <SerialVersion> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>07</ProductIDType> <IDValue>23073748</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> <ProductForm>JB</ProductForm> </SerialVersion> </SerialPublication> <JournalIssue> <JournalVolumeNumber>10</JournalVolumeNumber> <JournalIssueNumber>3</JournalIssueNumber> <JournalIssueDesignation>Vol 10 No 3 (2022): International Journal of Endorsing Health Science Research</JournalIssueDesignation> <JournalIssueDate> <DateFormat>06</DateFormat> <Date>2022</Date> </JournalIssueDate> </JournalIssue> <ContentItem> <SequenceNumber>4</SequenceNumber> <TextItem> <PageRun> <FirstPageNumber>296</FirstPageNumber> <LastPageNumber>303</LastPageNumber> </PageRun> </TextItem> <Title textformat="00" language="eng"> <TitleType>01</TitleType> <TitleText>Assessment of self-care in heart failure patients at a cardiac hospice in Peshawar, Pakistan.</TitleText> </Title> <Contributor> <SequenceNumber>1</SequenceNumber> <ContributorRole>A01</ContributorRole> <PersonName>Awal Khan</PersonName> <PersonNameInverted>Khan, Awal</PersonNameInverted> <ProfessionalAffiliation> <Affiliation>Medical Teaching Institution, Hayatabad Medical Complex, Peshawar-Pakistan.</Affiliation> </ProfessionalAffiliation> </Contributor> <Contributor> <SequenceNumber>2</SequenceNumber> <ContributorRole>A01</ContributorRole> <PersonName>Dildar Muhammad</PersonName> <PersonNameInverted>Muhammad, Dildar</PersonNameInverted> <ProfessionalAffiliation> <Affiliation>Institute of Nursing Sciences Khyber Medical University, Peshawar-Pakistan.</Affiliation> </ProfessionalAffiliation> </Contributor> <Contributor> <SequenceNumber>3</SequenceNumber> <ContributorRole>A01</ContributorRole> <PersonName>Afsha Khan</PersonName> <PersonNameInverted>Khan, Afsha</PersonNameInverted> <ProfessionalAffiliation> <Affiliation>Farkhanda Institute of Nursing and Public Health, Peshawar-Pakistan.</Affiliation> </ProfessionalAffiliation> </Contributor> <Contributor> <SequenceNumber>4</SequenceNumber> <ContributorRole>A01</ContributorRole> <PersonName>Rebecca Susan Dewey</PersonName> <PersonNameInverted>Dewey, Rebecca Susan</PersonNameInverted> <ProfessionalAffiliation> <Affiliation>Sir Peter Mansfield Imaging Centre, School of Physics and Astronomy, University of Nottingham, Nottingham-UK.</Affiliation> </ProfessionalAffiliation> </Contributor> <Language> <LanguageRole>01</LanguageRole> <LanguageCode>eng</LanguageCode> </Language> <Subject> <SubjectSchemeIdentifier>23</SubjectSchemeIdentifier> <SubjectHeadingText>Heart Failure, Hospice Center, Self-Care, Self-Care Heart Failure Index.</SubjectHeadingText> </Subject> <OtherText> <TextTypeCode>01</TextTypeCode> <Text textformat="00" language="eng"> Background: The significance of self-care in heart failure is yet to be demonstrated empirically; however, it's commonly believed that effective self-care delays the development of heart failure. This study aimed to assess the level of self-care among patients with heart failure attending a cardiac hospice center in Peshawar, Pakistan.  Methodology: A cross-sectional study design was used to examine self-care maintenance, self-care management, and self-care confidence in heart failure patients at Heart Hospice Center, Hayat Abad Medical Complex. A total of 195 heart failure patients were recruited using a convenient sampling method. Data were collected using the Self Care Heart Failure Index (SCHFI) version 6.2.  Results: The mean SCHFI score (comprising 22 items) across n=195 participants was 50 ± 28.9. A very low percentage (31.28%, n=61) scored an accepted level (≥70) of self-care. On the subscales of self-management, self-confidence, and self-maintenance, the mean scores were 50.0 ± 28.8, 46±26.6, and 50.0 ± 28.7, respectively. One hundred eighty symptomatic patients completed the self-care management subscale who was experiencing shortness of breath and ankle swelling.  Conclusion: Heart failure patients attending the Heart Hospice Center in Peshawar, Pakistan, did not portray a satisfactory level of self-care behavior. More effective nursing interventions are needed to manage heart failure patients in this center. </Text> </OtherText> <PublicationDate>20220901</PublicationDate> <RelatedWork> <RelationCode>81</RelationCode> <WorkIdentifier> <WorkIDType>01</WorkIDType> <IDValue>1-85</IDValue> </WorkIdentifier> </RelatedWork> <RelatedProduct> <RelationCode>89</RelationCode> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>01</ProductIDType> <IDValue>1-85-865-g854</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> </RelatedProduct> </ContentItem> </DOISerialArticleWork> <DOISerialArticleWork> <NotificationType>06</NotificationType> <DOI>10.29052/IJEHSR.v10.i3.2022.313-318</DOI> <DOIWebsiteLink>https://aeirc-edu.com/ojs14/index.php/IJEHSR/article/view/876</DOIWebsiteLink> <DOIStructuralType>Abstraction</DOIStructuralType> <RegistrantName>Advance Educational Institute and Research Center</RegistrantName> <RegistrationAuthority>mEDRA</RegistrationAuthority> <WorkIdentifier> <WorkIDType>01</WorkIDType> <IDValue>1-85-876</IDValue> </WorkIdentifier> <SerialPublication> <SerialWork> <Title textformat="00" language="eng"> <TitleType>01</TitleType> <TitleText>International Journal of Endorsing Health Science Research (IJEHSR)</TitleText> </Title> <Publisher> <PublishingRole>01</PublishingRole> <PublisherName>Advance Educational Institute and Research Center</PublisherName> </Publisher> <CountryOfPublication>PK</CountryOfPublication> </SerialWork> <SerialVersion> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>01</ProductIDType> <IDValue>1</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>07</ProductIDType> <IDValue>23103841</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> <ProductForm>JD</ProductForm> <EpubFormat>01</EpubFormat> <EpubFormatDescription>Open Journal Systems (OJS)</EpubFormatDescription> </SerialVersion> <SerialVersion> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>07</ProductIDType> <IDValue>23073748</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> <ProductForm>JB</ProductForm> </SerialVersion> </SerialPublication> <JournalIssue> <JournalVolumeNumber>10</JournalVolumeNumber> <JournalIssueNumber>3</JournalIssueNumber> <JournalIssueDesignation>Vol 10 No 3 (2022): International Journal of Endorsing Health Science Research</JournalIssueDesignation> <JournalIssueDate> <DateFormat>06</DateFormat> <Date>2022</Date> </JournalIssueDate> </JournalIssue> <ContentItem> <SequenceNumber>6</SequenceNumber> <TextItem> <PageRun> <FirstPageNumber>313</FirstPageNumber> <LastPageNumber>318</LastPageNumber> </PageRun> </TextItem> <Title textformat="00" language="eng"> <TitleType>01</TitleType> <TitleText>The efficacy of tamsulosin and solifenacin versus tamsulosin alone in double-J stent associated with lower urinary tract symptoms.</TitleText> </Title> <Contributor> <SequenceNumber>1</SequenceNumber> <ContributorRole>A01</ContributorRole> <PersonName>Asad Ullah Jan Hafiz</PersonName> <PersonNameInverted>Hafiz, Asad Ullah Jan</PersonNameInverted> <ProfessionalAffiliation> <Affiliation>DHQ Teaching Hospital, Charsadda-Pakistan.</Affiliation> </ProfessionalAffiliation> </Contributor> <Contributor> <SequenceNumber>2</SequenceNumber> <ContributorRole>A01</ContributorRole> <PersonName>Wajid Ali Syed</PersonName> <PersonNameInverted>Syed, Wajid Ali</PersonNameInverted> <ProfessionalAffiliation> <Affiliation>Muhammad Medical College, Mirpurkhas-Pakistan.</Affiliation> </ProfessionalAffiliation> </Contributor> <Contributor> <SequenceNumber>3</SequenceNumber> <ContributorRole>A01</ContributorRole> <PersonName>Sana Khalid</PersonName> <PersonNameInverted>Khalid, Sana</PersonNameInverted> <ProfessionalAffiliation> <Affiliation>Bahria University Medical and Dental College, Karachi-Pakistan.</Affiliation> </ProfessionalAffiliation> </Contributor> <Language> <LanguageRole>01</LanguageRole> <LanguageCode>eng</LanguageCode> </Language> <Subject> <SubjectSchemeIdentifier>23</SubjectSchemeIdentifier> <SubjectHeadingText>Ureterorenoscopy, double-J stent, Urinary Tract Infections, Tamsulosin, Solifenacin</SubjectHeadingText> </Subject> <OtherText> <TextTypeCode>01</TextTypeCode> <Text textformat="00" language="eng"> Background: Lithotripsy procedures, especially, Ureterorenoscopy is considered instrumental in treating ureteral stones effectively. In endourological surgery, a pigtail ureteric stent is a widely used method to resolve or prevent ureteral obstruction, promote healing, and reduce the incidence of ureteral strictures. The current study aimed to compare the efficacy of Tamsulosin with Solifenacin and Tamsulosin alone in double-J stents associated with lower urinary tract symptoms using IPS-Score.  Methodology: This study was conducted at the Urology Department, Institute of Kidney Diseases (IKD) Peshawar, Pakistan, from Aug 30, 2018, to Feb 28, 2019. Patients with DJ stents were randomly assigned to two groups (Group A & Group B). Group A received Tab Tamsulosin and Solifenacin, while Group B received Tab Tamsulosin alone; the IPS score was calculated at baseline and after 14 days.  Results: A total of 100 subjects undergoing unilateral DJ ureteral stenting participated in this study. The post-treatment IPSS Irritative score suggested that Group A has an average IPS score of 4.38+1.77, while in Group B, 6.4+1.55, which was significant with a p-value of 0.000.  Conclusion: Post-treatment average IPSS Irritative score of Tamsulosin and Solifenacin combination was less than Tamsulosin alone in patients with unilateral DJ stent.  </Text> </OtherText>

a standard treatment for managing small renal masses. RENAL Nephrometry score (RNS) is a widely used tool for assessing tumors, minimizing bias, and improving clinical outcomes. This study aimed to determine the frequency of various renal mass complexities based on the RENAL nephrometry score in patients undergoing partial nephrectomy and to compare the mean blood loss in these patients.  Methodology: The cross-sectional study was conducted at the Department of Urology, Sindh Institute of Urology & Transplantation, Karachi- Pakistan. Perioperative blood loss after partial nephrectomy was observed in all cases, and patients had their RENAL nephrometry score determined before surgery. The patient's baseline demographic data, including age, gender, and body mass index (BMI), was recorded using a pre-designed Proforma.  Results: According to the RNS, there were 33(52.4%) patients with moderate complexity, followed by 19(30.25%) and 11(17.4%) who had severe and mild complexity, respectively. Furthermore, there was a significant difference in the mean blood loss among the three groups (p=0.025). Among the cofounders, age, BMI, and male gender significantly affected mean blood loss in different RNS groups (p<0.05).  Conclusion: There was a high frequency of moderate renal complexity among the studied patients based on the RNS. A significant difference in the mean blood loss was observed among the patients with mild, moderate, and severe complexity. </Text> </OtherText> <PublicationDate>20220817</PublicationDate>

fragility hip fractures hold a significant health burden and are scrupulously linked with a greater possibility of morbidity and mortality among this population group, even though there is an increased incidence of subsequent hip fractures. Bisphosphonates are extensively used in treating and preventing fragility hip fractures as prophetically.  Methodology: From March 2014 to February 2020, a total of 2430 patients were enrolled with their first hip fracture. After determining the second hip fracture, a comparison between non-compliant and compliant bisphosphonate users (Ibandronic Acid) was conducted. Medication Possession Ratio of more than 80% post first hip fracture treatment was defined as bisphosphonates compliant user.  Results: Among 2430 patients, 65.2 years was the mean age at the first hip fracture (ranging from 51 to 91 years). A total of 146 (6.0%) patients suffered from second hip fractures at a mean duration of 29.45 months post first hip fracture. 2nd hip fracture was observed in only 3.5% (30/860) of compliant bisphosphonate users compared to non-compliant users with 7.4% (116/1570).  Conclusion: Among the geriatric population, the use of bisphosphonate (Ibandronic Acid) has a significant impact on preventing subsequent hip fractures. Hence this emphasizes the need to use bisphosphonates in clinical practice to help to minimize the burden of hip fractures. </Text> </OtherText> <PublicationDate>20220815</PublicationDate>

Mitral stenosis (MS), characterized by left ventricular inflow tract obstruction at the mitral valve level caused by different etiologies. Early detection of symptomatic mitral stenosis with a thrombus in LAA, not responding to anticoagulation in due course of time are sent for Mitral valve replacement rather than undergoing PTMC. The current study aims to see the anticoagulation response in different types of left atrial appendages so that non-responders can be referred for surgery on the first TEE and Cardiac CT.  Methodology: The current study will observe the frequency of left atrial appendage (LAA) thrombus resolution after three months of anticoagulation in patients with severe MS. It will assess the response rate in different morphologies of LAA so that non-responders can be referred for surgery on the very first TEE and Cardiac CT. Consecutive MS patients with thrombus in LAA detected via transesophageal echocardiography will be included in the study. According to the standard procedure, TEE followed by Cardiac CT will be performed after obtaining informed consent from the patients.  Discussion: Detecting the anticoagulation response using follow-up TEE in different types of left atrial appendages might be helpful for the non-responders that can be referred for surgery after TEE and Cardiac CT on first examination and TEE only at the end of three months.  Trial registration number: The trial was registered on ClinicalTrials.gov (NCT05186649). </Text> </OtherText> <PublicationDate>20220815</PublicationDate> <RelatedWork>

<TextTypeCode>01</TextTypeCode> <Text textformat="00" language="eng"> Background: Head trauma is the most common case encountered in neurosurgery, and it is on the rise daily; head trauma sometimes requires the removal of skull bone which leads to another set of complications and associated issues related to cranioplasty. The study's objective was to share the single-center tertiary care hospital experience of cranioplasty, including outcomes, management, and associated complications.  Methodology: Patients who underwent reconstructive cranioplasty at the study site from 2015-2020 were examined in this retrospective descriptive study conducted at the department of neurosurgery, Jinnah postgraduate medical center, Karachi. Patients aged 18 to 60 years were considered for cranioplasty procedures, preceded by the decompressive post-craniotomy for brain trauma, skull fracture, intractable intracranial hypertension, brain tumor, and infected post-craniotomy bone flaps were included in the study.  Results: A total of 68 patients who presented to the study center with cranial defects were included in this study. The frequent cause of cranioplasty was the traumatic injury to the brain in 38(55.88%), followed by brain tumors in 321(0.4%) and cerebrovascular injury in 9(13.23%) cases. In our study, no patient required more than one cranial procedure. The anatomical regional wise division of defects was temporal 29(42.64%), frontal 15(22%), and parietal 24(35.39%).  Conclusion: Indications for cranioplasty, type of bone graft, associated comorbidities, and complications have been addressed that are potentially preventable. </Text> </OtherText> <PublicationDate>20220815</PublicationDate> <RelatedWork> <RelationCode>81</RelationCode> <WorkIdentifier> <WorkIDType>01</WorkIDType> <IDValue>1-85</IDValue> </WorkIdentifier> </RelatedWork> <RelatedProduct> <RelationCode>89</RelationCode> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>01</ProductIDType> <IDValue>1-85-859-g862</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> </RelatedProduct> </ContentItem> </DOISerialArticleWork> <DOISerialArticleWork> <NotificationType>06</NotificationType> <DOI>10.29052/IJEHSR.v10.i3.2022.290-295</DOI> <DOIWebsiteLink>https://aeirc-edu.com/ojs14/index.php/IJEHSR/article/view/857</DOIWebsiteLink> <DOIStructuralType>Abstraction</DOIStructuralType> <RegistrantName>Advance Educational Institute and Research Center</RegistrantName> <RegistrationAuthority>mEDRA</RegistrationAuthority> <WorkIdentifier> <WorkIDType>01</WorkIDType> <IDValue>1-85-857</IDValue> </WorkIdentifier> <SerialPublication> <SerialWork> <Title textformat="00" language="eng"> <TitleType>01</TitleType> <TitleText>International Journal of Endorsing Health Science Research (IJEHSR)</TitleText> </Title> <Publisher> <PublishingRole>01</PublishingRole> <PublisherName>Advance Educational Institute and Research Center</PublisherName> </Publisher> <CountryOfPublication>PK</CountryOfPublication> </SerialWork> <SerialVersion> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>01</ProductIDType> <IDValue>1</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>07</ProductIDType> <IDValue>23103841</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> <ProductForm>JD</ProductForm> <EpubFormat>01</EpubFormat> <EpubFormatDescription>Open Journal Systems (OJS)</EpubFormatDescription> </SerialVersion> <SerialVersion> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>07</ProductIDType> <IDValue>23073748</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> <ProductForm>JB</ProductForm> </SerialVersion> </SerialPublication> <JournalIssue> <JournalVolumeNumber>10</JournalVolumeNumber> <JournalIssueNumber>3</JournalIssueNumber> <JournalIssueDesignation>Vol 10 No 3 (2022): International Journal of Endorsing Health Science Research</JournalIssueDesignation> <JournalIssueDate> <DateFormat>06</DateFormat> <Date>2022</Date> </JournalIssueDate> </JournalIssue> <ContentItem> <SequenceNumber>3</SequenceNumber> <TextItem> <PageRun> <FirstPageNumber>290</FirstPageNumber> <LastPageNumber>295</LastPageNumber> </PageRun> </TextItem> <Title textformat="00" language="eng"> <TitleType>01</TitleType> <TitleText>Biochemical assessment of uric acid and magnesium in prediabetic patients in Peshawar-KP: A case-control study.</TitleText> </Title> <Contributor> <SequenceNumber>1</SequenceNumber> <ContributorRole>A01</ContributorRole> <PersonName>Farid Ullah Shah</PersonName> <PersonNameInverted>Shah, Farid Ullah</PersonNameInverted> <ProfessionalAffiliation> <Affiliation>Department of Biochemistry, Rehman Medical College, Peshawar, KPK-Pakistan.</Affiliation> </ProfessionalAffiliation> </Contributor> <Contributor> <SequenceNumber>2</SequenceNumber> <ContributorRole>A01</ContributorRole> <PersonName>Awais Naeem</PersonName> <PersonNameInverted>Naeem, Awais</PersonNameInverted> <ProfessionalAffiliation> <Affiliation>Department of Medicine, Khyber Teaching Hospital, Peshawar, KPK-Pakistan.</Affiliation> </ProfessionalAffiliation> </Contributor> <Contributor> <SequenceNumber>3</SequenceNumber> <ContributorRole>A01</ContributorRole> <PersonName>Fahad Naim</PersonName> <PersonNameInverted>Naim, Fahad</PersonNameInverted> <ProfessionalAffiliation> <Affiliation>Department of Medicine, Khyber Teaching Hospital, Peshawar, KPK-Pakistan.</Affiliation> </ProfessionalAffiliation> </Contributor> <Contributor> <SequenceNumber>4</SequenceNumber> <ContributorRole>A01</ContributorRole> <PersonName>Wasim Ahmad</PersonName> <PersonNameInverted>Ahmad, Wasim</PersonNameInverted> <ProfessionalAffiliation> <Affiliation>3Department of Allied Health Sciences, School of Health Sciences, Peshawar, KPK-Pakistan.</Affiliation> </ProfessionalAffiliation> </Contributor> <Language> <LanguageRole>01</LanguageRole> <LanguageCode>eng</LanguageCode> </Language> <Subject> <SubjectSchemeIdentifier>23</SubjectSchemeIdentifier> <SubjectHeadingText>Pre-diabetics, Hypomagnesemia, Hyperuricemia, Diabetes Mellitus.</SubjectHeadingText> </Subject> <OtherText> <TextTypeCode>01</TextTypeCode> <Text textformat="00" language="eng"> Background: Background: There is a lack of information regarding serum uric acid (SUA) and magnesium levels among the pre-diabetics population. This study aimed to assess the biochemical assessment of both uric acid and magnesium in prediabetics of the Peshawar-KP region.  Methodology: In this case-control study, patients having normal glucose levels were considered as control, and prediabetics were cases. Fasting blood glucose (FPG) levels between 100-125 mg/dl or HbA1c levels between 5.7 to 6.4% were considered pre-diabetic. SUA was assessed by the Uricase method, serum Mg+ by the Calmagite calorimetric method, and fasting glucose was assessed by the GOD-POD enzymatic method.  Results: According to our findings, mean values of serum magnesium were 2.12 ± 0.60 mg/dl (p=0.026) and 1.10 ± 0.82 mg/dl (p=0.001) in male and female of control group whereas, 1.60 ± 0.44 mg/dl (p=0.004) and 0.90 ± 0.22 mg/dl (p=0.002) in male and female of cases group respectively. Correspondingly, mean value of SUA was recorded as 4.14 ± 0.66 mg/dl (p=0.008) and 3.12 ± 0.38 mg/dl (p=0.004) in male and female of control group whereas 8.10 ± 1.00 mg/dl (p=0.002) and 6.22 ± 0.44 mg/dl (p=0.003) in male and female of cases and subjects group respectively. It is noticeable that mean serum magnesium and SUA values were higher in the male of both groups compared to females.  Conclusion: The study concluded that lower serum magnesium levels in prediabetics might result from the closure of K+ channels, defective phosphorylation of insulin receptors, or diminished glucokinase activity. Higher uric acid levels in prediabetics might result from inflammation, oxidative stress, and hypertrophy of the tubules. </Text> </OtherText> <PublicationDate>20220815</PublicationDate> <RelatedWork> <RelationCode>81</RelationCode> <WorkIdentifier> <WorkIDType>01</WorkIDType> <IDValue>1-85</IDValue> </WorkIdentifier> </RelatedWork> <RelatedProduct> <RelationCode>89</RelationCode> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>01</ProductIDType> <IDValue>1-85-857-g853</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> </RelatedProduct> </ContentItem> </DOISerialArticleWork> <DOISerialArticleWork> <NotificationType>06</NotificationType> <DOI>10.29052/IJEHSR.v10.i3.2022.279-289</DOI> <DOIWebsiteLink>https://aeirc-edu.com/ojs14/index.php/IJEHSR/article/view/850</DOIWebsiteLink> <DOIStructuralType>Abstraction</DOIStructuralType> <RegistrantName>Advance Educational Institute and Research Center</RegistrantName> <RegistrationAuthority>mEDRA</RegistrationAuthority> <WorkIdentifier> <WorkIDType>01</WorkIDType> <IDValue>1-85-850</IDValue> </WorkIdentifier> <SerialPublication> <SerialWork> <Title textformat="00" language="eng"> <TitleType>01</TitleType> <TitleText>International Journal of Endorsing Health Science Research (IJEHSR)</TitleText> </Title> <Publisher> <PublishingRole>01</PublishingRole> <PublisherName>Advance Educational Institute and Research Center</PublisherName> </Publisher> <CountryOfPublication>PK</CountryOfPublication> </SerialWork> <SerialVersion> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>01</ProductIDType> <IDValue>1</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>07</ProductIDType> <IDValue>23103841</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> <ProductForm>JD</ProductForm> <EpubFormat>01</EpubFormat> <EpubFormatDescription>Open Journal Systems (OJS)</EpubFormatDescription> </SerialVersion> <SerialVersion> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>07</ProductIDType> <IDValue>23073748</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> <ProductForm>JB</ProductForm> </SerialVersion> </SerialPublication> <JournalIssue> <JournalVolumeNumber>10</JournalVolumeNumber> <JournalIssueNumber>3</JournalIssueNumber> <JournalIssueDesignation>Vol 10 No 3 (2022): International Journal of Endorsing Health Science Research</JournalIssueDesignation> <JournalIssueDate> <DateFormat>06</DateFormat> <Date>2022</Date> </JournalIssueDate> </JournalIssue> <ContentItem> <SequenceNumber>2</SequenceNumber> <TextItem> <PageRun> <FirstPageNumber>279</FirstPageNumber> <LastPageNumber>289</LastPageNumber> </PageRun> </TextItem> <Title textformat="00" language="eng"> <TitleType>01</TitleType> <TitleText>Knowledge and perceptions of traditional birth attendants treating patients with HIV/AIDS and its related stigma and discrimination in District Multan, Pakistan.</TitleText> </Title> <Contributor> <SequenceNumber>1</SequenceNumber> <ContributorRole>A01</ContributorRole> <PersonName>Amber Shahzadi</PersonName> <PersonNameInverted>Shahzadi, Amber</PersonNameInverted> <ProfessionalAffiliation> <Affiliation>EQUIP Research & Development Consultants, Multan-Pakistan.</Affiliation> </ProfessionalAffiliation> </Contributor> <Contributor> <SequenceNumber>2</SequenceNumber> <ContributorRole>A01</ContributorRole> <PersonName>Kashif Kamran Khan</PersonName> <PersonNameInverted>Khan, Kashif Kamran</PersonNameInverted> <ProfessionalAffiliation> <Affiliation>EQUIP Research & Development Consultants, Multan-Pakistan.</Affiliation> </ProfessionalAffiliation> </Contributor> <Language> <LanguageRole>01</LanguageRole> <LanguageCode>eng</LanguageCode> </Language> <Subject> <SubjectSchemeIdentifier>23</SubjectSchemeIdentifier> <SubjectHeadingText>TBA, HIV, AIDS, PLHIV, Pandemic, Gender stereotype, Stigma, Discrimination</SubjectHeadingText> </Subject> <OtherText> <TextTypeCode>01</TextTypeCode> <Text textformat="00" language="eng"> Background: In Pakistan, only 20% of births are attended by a competent health expert, while traditional birth attendants (TBAs) deliver 90% of births. Therefore, in Pakistan, TBAs play a dynamic role in providing maternal health. This study assessed the Knowledge and Perceptions of TBAs treating patients with HIV/AIDS and its related stigma and discrimination in district Multan, Pakistan.  Methodology: A descriptive study design is used to conduct in-depth interviews and focus group discussions using a self-structured questionnaire with TBAs (FGDs = 4; n = 18) who were permanent residents. In addition, in-depth interviews (IDIs = 6) were conducted with women who had more than five years of experience and are still in practice. Participants were sampled through convenience sampling resulting in 100.  Results: The results of the study indicated that TBAs have heard about HIV/AIDS, but 53.5% did not have a clear understanding of the signs and symptoms of HIV/AIDS. The knowledge of this deadly virus and disease was perceived rather vaguely by the TBAs. Most (82%) of the respondents presented a discriminatory attitude towards the people living with HIV.  Conclusion: This study inferred that the targeted group was poorly informed about the actual concerns of HIV/AIDS and how to overcome stigma and discrimination. So, if we ought to cope with the hideous challenge of the pandemic and meet the 2030 goal of removing this pandemic, we are supposed to reposition and train our health care providers, especially TBAs, to meet up with the best global practices. </Text> </OtherText> <PublicationDate>20220815</PublicationDate> <RelatedWork> <RelationCode>81</RelationCode> <WorkIdentifier> <WorkIDType>01</WorkIDType>

liver cirrhosis, we still have deficient indigenous literature. The present study aims to determine the frequency of osteoporosis with liver cirrhosis.  Methodology: A prospective observational study was carried out at the Tertiary referral center of Karachi. Osteoporosis of liver cirrhosis patients was established as specified by WHO using dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) on the L1-L4 spine and having spine bone mineral density (BMD) expressed as T score <-2.5. Short history related to the duration of the disease was recorded. The patient's BMD expressed as a T score was measured using DXA on the spine.  Results: Among patients who had presented with a duration of cirrhosis of 5 years or less, 20(6.75%) had osteoporosis, whereas 62(20.9%) had it with a duration > 5 years (p=0.000). As far as outcome of the patients is concerned 52(17.5%) and 30(10.1%) patients had osteoporosis with BMI < 25 kg/m2 and > 25 kg/m2 respectively (p=0.590). When layered according to the Childs Class, among patients with Class A, B, and C, 0.33%, 3.37%, and 23.9% of patients had osteoporosis (p=0.050).  Conclusion: In conclusion, the prevalence of osteoporosis in patients with cirrhosis was found to be 27.7%. Furthermore, patients with a longer duration of disease, low BMI, and with child class C are at greater threat of the occurrence of osteoporosis and require early detection and prompt treatment. </Text> </OtherText> <PublicationDate>20220810</PublicationDate> <RelatedWork> <RelationCode>81</RelationCode> <WorkIdentifier> <WorkIDType>01</WorkIDType> <IDValue>1-85</IDValue> </WorkIdentifier> </RelatedWork> <RelatedProduct> <RelationCode>89</RelationCode> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>01</ProductIDType> <IDValue>1-85-840-g851</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> </RelatedProduct> </ContentItem> </DOISerialArticleWork> <DOISerialArticleWork> <NotificationType>06</NotificationType> <DOI>10.29052/IJEHSR.v10.i3.2022.EOC-00001</DOI> <DOIWebsiteLink>https://aeirc-edu.com/ojs14/index.php/IJEHSR/article/view/875</DOIWebsiteLink> <DOIStructuralType>Abstraction</DOIStructuralType> <RegistrantName>Advance Educational Institute and Research Center</RegistrantName> <RegistrationAuthority>mEDRA</RegistrationAuthority> <WorkIdentifier> <WorkIDType>01</WorkIDType> <IDValue>1-85-875</IDValue> </WorkIdentifier> <SerialPublication> <SerialWork> <Title textformat="00" language="eng"> <TitleType>01</TitleType> <TitleText>International Journal of Endorsing Health Science Research (IJEHSR)</TitleText> </Title> <Publisher> <PublishingRole>01</PublishingRole> <PublisherName>Advance Educational Institute and Research Center</PublisherName> </Publisher> <CountryOfPublication>PK</CountryOfPublication> </SerialWork> <SerialVersion> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>01</ProductIDType> <IDValue>1</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>07</ProductIDType> <IDValue>23103841</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> <ProductForm>JD</ProductForm> <EpubFormat>01</EpubFormat> <EpubFormatDescription>Open Journal Systems (OJS)</EpubFormatDescription> </SerialVersion> <SerialVersion> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>07</ProductIDType> <IDValue>23073748</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> <ProductForm>JB</ProductForm> </SerialVersion> </SerialPublication> <JournalIssue> <JournalVolumeNumber>10</JournalVolumeNumber> <JournalIssueNumber>3</JournalIssueNumber> <JournalIssueDesignation>Vol 10 No 3 (2022): International Journal of Endorsing Health Science Research</JournalIssueDesignation> <JournalIssueDate> <DateFormat>06</DateFormat> <Date>2022</Date> </JournalIssueDate> </JournalIssue> <ContentItem> <SequenceNumber>1</SequenceNumber> <TextItem> <PageRun> <FirstPageNumber/> <LastPageNumber>00001</LastPageNumber> </PageRun> </TextItem> <Title textformat="00" language="eng"> <TitleType>01</TitleType> <TitleText>The Expression of Concern “Evaluation of the antimicrobial potential of partially purified proteins/peptides of Yellow Scorpion Buthus sindicus against Carbapenem-Resistant Acinetobactor baumannii & Pseudomonas aeruginosa” [IJEHSR 9(2) (2021) 238-247]</TitleText> </Title> <Contributor> <SequenceNumber>1</SequenceNumber> <ContributorRole>A01</ContributorRole> <PersonName>Sehrish Urooj</PersonName> <PersonNameInverted>Urooj, Sehrish</PersonNameInverted> <ProfessionalAffiliation> <Affiliation>Department of Biochemistry, Institute of Basic Sciences, DUHS, Karachi-Pakistan.</Affiliation> </ProfessionalAffiliation> </Contributor> <Contributor> <SequenceNumber>2</SequenceNumber> <ContributorRole>A01</ContributorRole> <PersonName>Rafat Amin</PersonName> <PersonNameInverted>Amin, Rafat</PersonNameInverted> <ProfessionalAffiliation> <Affiliation>Department of Biochemistry, Institute of Basic Biomedical Sciences, DUHS, Karachi-Pakistan.</Affiliation> </ProfessionalAffiliation> </Contributor> <Contributor> <SequenceNumber>3</SequenceNumber> <ContributorRole>A01</ContributorRole> <PersonName>Zeba Haque</PersonName> <PersonNameInverted>Haque, Zeba</PersonNameInverted> <ProfessionalAffiliation> <Affiliation>Department of Pathology, Dow College of Pharmacy, DUHS, Karachi-Pakistan.</Affiliation> </ProfessionalAffiliation> </Contributor> <Language> <LanguageRole>01</LanguageRole> <LanguageCode>eng</LanguageCode> </Language> <Subject> <SubjectSchemeIdentifier>23</SubjectSchemeIdentifier> <SubjectHeadingText>Expression of Concern</SubjectHeadingText> </Subject> <OtherText> <TextTypeCode>01</TextTypeCode> <Text textformat="00" language="eng"> This expression of concern related to the above-mentioned publication highlights the authorship dispute brought to our attention by third parties, which they further transformed into a data authorization claim against the first author (Corresponding Author).  It was informed that third parties (Author’s Institution) formed a committee for evaluation, as per their inquiry the manuscript was submitted by the corresponding author without information to the other co-authors.

Background: Ammonia is detoxified in the liver, and hepatic insufficiency due to cirrhosis leads to raised ammonia, causing symptoms of Hepatic Encephalopathy (HE). Studies proclaim that Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) accelerate ammonia production. The study objective was to establish the frequency of H. pylori in liver cirrhosis patients with overt HE.  Methodology: This cross-sectional study was conducted in Medical Unit-I Abbasi Shaheed Hospital, Karachi, from May to November 2018. Liver Cirrhosis patients between the ages of 31-60 years were selected via non-probability sampling. Patients of any sex suffering from liver cirrhosis for six months, as proved by ultrasound and overt HE diagnosed using West Haven Criteria, were included in the study. Stool samples were collected from patients in a sterile manner. Results of stool for H. pylori antigen were recorded. Data were analyzed using SPSS version 16.0.  Results: Out of 135 patients with Liver Cirrhosis with overt HE, 42 (31.1%) suffered from H. pylori infection while 93 (68.9%) patients did not. The mean age of patients was 44.14 ± 8.49 years. Stratification of the age of patients with H. pylori infection showed significant results (p=0.00). The mean disease duration was 4.72 ± 1.24 years. Stratification based on disease duration with H. pylori infection revealed significant results (p=0.00). Stratified findings based on Child-Pugh classification and H. pylori infection were insignificant (p=0.50).  Conclusion: Our study reveals there is less frequency of H. pylori infection amongst liver cirrhotic patients. However, amongst those infected, many had a longer duration of disease. Our study indicates more cases of H. pylori infection with increasing age of liver cirrhosis patients. Furthermore, the relation between H. pylori infection and the Child-Pugh classification indicates that overt HE may be attributed to factors other than H. pylori infection. </Text> </OtherText>

regarding the risk factors associated with acute coronary syndrome among female patients of the region, while none was previously reported from Kohat, Pakistan. Therefore, the present study aims to assess the risk factors among female patients with various types of Acute Coronary Syndrome (ACS).  Methodology: A descriptive cross-sectional study was conducted from June 2021 to February 2022. A total of 500 female patients with ACS admitted to the Cardiology Unit at DHQ Kohat were enrolled, and data were collected using a structured questionnaire. The risk factors were determined with respect to ACS types. The patient's electrocardiography (ECG) and cardiac biomarkers were assessed, and blood samples were obtained to estimate lipid parameters.  Results: The mean age of enrolled ACS females was 54.20 ± 9.20 years. Of the total, 74.6% were diagnosed with non-ST segment elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI), ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) was present among 6.0% of the enrolled cases, and 19.4% had unstable angina. Hypertension was the most prevalent risk factor (53.2%), followed by diabetes (51.4%). The studied risk factors mean age, blood pressure, body mass index (BMI), past medical history, and family history of ACS were significantly different among the different ACS types (p<0.05).  Conclusion: In conclusion, age, blood pressure, BMI, past medical history (presence of diabetes and hypertension), and family history of ACS among female patients are significantly associated with various ACS types. </Text> </OtherText> <PublicationDate>20220628</PublicationDate> <RelatedWork> <RelationCode>81</RelationCode> <WorkIdentifier> <WorkIDType>01</WorkIDType> <IDValue>1-85</IDValue>

Indigenous Food Samples.</SubjectHeadingText> </Subject> <OtherText> <TextTypeCode>01</TextTypeCode> <Text textformat="00" language="eng"> Background: Lactic acid bacteria (LAB) are generally found in nutrient-rich environments such as milk, dairy products, meat, vegetables, and fruits. The functions of LAB depend upon the sufficient number of bacteria being available in the intestines, and the actions of these bacteria are generally species and strain-specific. The challenges encountered in identifying and classifying lactic acid bacteria have complicated the research process. Despite encountered challenges, various benefits of lactic acid bacteria have been identified. The current study aimed to isolate and characterize indigenous LAB bacteriocins producers from local food sources using morphological, biochemical, and molecular methods.  Methodology: One thousand indigenous LAB were isolated and screened from local fresh and fermented foods in Karachi's retail markets for three years. 46 LAB isolates exhibited inhibitory activity against other LAB and non-LAB gram-positive bacteria in broth medium. Three of forty-six isolates were selected for further study of the nature and production of the inhibitory substance based on production in broth, bacteriocin nature of the substance, and relatively wide antibacterial spectrum.  Results: The three indigenous LAB producers were identified as Lactococci based on microscopy, catalase, biochemical and molecular characterization. Bacteriocin of the isolate C130 was heat tolerant at 100°C and produced during the late logarithmic phase of growth. There is still a need for investigation to identify the role of LAB, which might help prevent certain chronic illnesses and infections. Most beneficial impacts are known in constipation, hypocholesterolemic effects, urogenital infections, and colon cancer.  Conclusion: L. lactis C130 was found to be a thermostable bacteriocin producer with a fair antibacterial spectrum against various food spoilage. </Text> </OtherText> <PublicationDate>20220622</PublicationDate> <RelatedWork> <RelationCode>81</RelationCode> <WorkIdentifier> <WorkIDType>01</WorkIDType> <IDValue>1-85</IDValue> </WorkIdentifier> </RelatedWork> <RelatedProduct> <RelationCode>89</RelationCode> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>01</ProductIDType> <IDValue>1-85-819-g859</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> </RelatedProduct> </ContentItem> </DOISerialArticleWork> <DOISerialArticleWork> <NotificationType>06</NotificationType> <DOI>10.29052/IJEHSR.v10.i2.2022.141-143</DOI> <DOIWebsiteLink>https://aeirc-edu.com/ojs14/index.php/IJEHSR/article/view/851</DOIWebsiteLink> <DOIStructuralType>Abstraction</DOIStructuralType> <RegistrantName>Advance Educational Institute and Research Center</RegistrantName> <RegistrationAuthority>mEDRA</RegistrationAuthority> <WorkIdentifier> <WorkIDType>01</WorkIDType> <IDValue>1-84-851</IDValue> </WorkIdentifier> <SerialPublication> <SerialWork> <Title textformat="00" language="eng"> <TitleType>01</TitleType> <TitleText>International Journal of Endorsing Health Science Research (IJEHSR)</TitleText> </Title> <Publisher> <PublishingRole>01</PublishingRole> <PublisherName>Advance Educational Institute and Research Center</PublisherName> </Publisher> <CountryOfPublication>PK</CountryOfPublication> </SerialWork> <SerialVersion> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>01</ProductIDType> <IDValue>1</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>07</ProductIDType> <IDValue>23103841</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> <ProductForm>JD</ProductForm> <EpubFormat>01</EpubFormat> <EpubFormatDescription>Open Journal Systems (OJS)</EpubFormatDescription> </SerialVersion> <SerialVersion> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>07</ProductIDType> <IDValue>23073748</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> <ProductForm>JB</ProductForm> </SerialVersion> </SerialPublication> <JournalIssue> <JournalVolumeNumber>10</JournalVolumeNumber> <JournalIssueNumber>2</JournalIssueNumber> <JournalIssueDesignation>Vol 10 No 2 (2022): International Journal of Endorsing Health Science Research</JournalIssueDesignation> <JournalIssueDate> <DateFormat>06</DateFormat> <Date>2022</Date> </JournalIssueDate> </JournalIssue> <ContentItem> <SequenceNumber>1</SequenceNumber> <TextItem> <PageRun> <FirstPageNumber>141</FirstPageNumber> <LastPageNumber>143</LastPageNumber> </PageRun> </TextItem> <Title textformat="00" language="eng"> <TitleType>01</TitleType> <TitleText>Interactions of Little-brain and Big-brain in Explaining Abdominal Symptoms</TitleText> </Title> <Contributor> <SequenceNumber>1</SequenceNumber> <ContributorRole>A01</ContributorRole> <PersonName>Yeong Yeh Lee</PersonName> <PersonNameInverted>Lee, Yeong Yeh</PersonNameInverted> <ProfessionalAffiliation> <Affiliation>1.

Arginine Vasopressin (AVP) plays a significant role in the pathophysiology of Diabetes Mellitus (DM) and its related nephropathy. Timely detection of copeptin, a surrogate biomarker of AVP, would help in minimizing the osmoregulatory complications secondary to DM. The study aimed to correlate serum copeptin levels with serum osmolarity and electrolytes in subjects with progressive stages of DM.  Methodology: A total of 120 patients were recruited as controls, pre-diabetes, DM without nephropathy, and nephropathy. Serum copeptin levels were measured by Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay. At the same time, routine biochemical tests for diabetes and renal function were done from the affiliated diagnostic laboratory.  Results: The mean copeptin and osmolarity levels were 207.74 ± 192.08 pg/ml and 302.29 ± 18.13 mOsm/kg, respectively. Both, the copeptin and osmolarity levels raises progressively from controls to various stages of DM and share significant positive correlation (r=0.214, p=0.019). Osmolarity was also correlated significantly with RBS (r=0.262), BUN (r=0.844), Na+ (r=0.210) and K+ (r=0.461).  Conclusion: The significant correlation of copeptin with osmolarity highlights the importance of the AVP system in regulating body fluid equilibrium in diabetic patients progressing towards nephropathy. Timely detection of copeptin can play an important role in the early management of the disease. </Text> </OtherText> <PublicationDate>20220601</PublicationDate> <RelatedWork>

Background: Geriatrics refers to age-related health changes and consequently causes complications in polypharmacy, generalizing prescribing patterns. The study aimed to investigate the pervasiveness of medication inaccuracies along with drug interactions.  Methodology: Out of 450 prescriptions only 210 were selected that contained Calcium Channel Blocker (CCB) and other drugs. Drug-drug interactions were articulated by Micromedex 2.0, and the harm score was determined by National Coordinating Council for Medication Error Reporting and Prevention.  Results: The outcomes revealed that 645 medication errors were identified and multiple errors were present in a single prescription. The most frequent error was unstated patient's weight (98.6%) proceeds from drug-drug interactions (66.7%). According to the harm score, 36.66% of prescriptions were placed in category D, there was a statistically significant association between the drug-drug interaction and the number of prescribed drugs (p<0.0001).  Conclusion: The prime solution is that the physicians should be facilitated withal trainings about drug interactions and prescription writing skills according to WHO guidelines or other recognized standards. </Text> </OtherText> <PublicationDate>20220601</PublicationDate> <RelatedWork> <RelationCode>81</RelationCode> <WorkIdentifier> <WorkIDType>01</WorkIDType>

textformat="00" language="eng">Background: The SARS-COV-2's spread from continent to the continent has resulted in an increased number of mutations in the viral gene encoding proteins. As a result, mutations in target proteins provide a significant challenge in creating antiviral drugs and vaccines. The present review discussed the COVID-19 epidemiology and the effects of drugs being tested against COVID-19/SARS-COV-2. Dosage of these drugs along with associated challenges was also discussed.  Methodology: Systematic review was conducted after a thorough search in the "PubMed, NIH, Elsevier, Scopus, Web of Science, Science Direct, and Google Scholar database. 45 studies on drugs associated with COVID-19 fulfilled the inclusion criteria and were selected for this review.  Results: The FDA only accepted the Remdesivir drug against SARS-COV-2, as the hospitalized patients recovered very quickly by taking it. Antiviral EIDD-2801 has been found to make the SARS-COV-2 unable to infect cells by causing genetic modifications in the virus RNA. Similarly, Nitazoxanide appeared beneficial against SARS-COV-2 in a primary intervention and severe conditions (including pregnancy) without undesirable effects on the newborns. Children with mild cases can be handled solely by proper caring.  Conclusion: Although Remdesivir and Dexamethasone are recommended in severe cases, clinical trials are ongoing to investigate other possible therapies like MAb and Convalescent Plasma antibodies for COVID-19. Older drugs (usually used to treat other conditions) are also under-tested by researchers to see if they are effective for COVID-19. Further tests are essential to validate whether any of the mentioned above possible therapies would be helpful for COVID-19 treatment. </Text> </OtherText> <PublicationDate>20220601</PublicationDate> <RelatedWork> <RelationCode>81</RelationCode> <WorkIdentifier> <WorkIDType>01</WorkIDType> <IDValue>1-84</IDValue> </WorkIdentifier> </RelatedWork> <RelatedProduct> <RelationCode>89</RelationCode> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>01</ProductIDType> <IDValue>1-84-827-g839</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> </RelatedProduct> </ContentItem> </DOISerialArticleWork> <DOISerialArticleWork> <NotificationType>06</NotificationType> <DOI>10.29052/IJEHSR.v10.i2.2022.227-232</DOI> <DOIWebsiteLink>https://aeirc-edu.com/ojs14/index.php/IJEHSR/article/view/813</DOIWebsiteLink> <DOIStructuralType>Abstraction</DOIStructuralType> <RegistrantName>Advance Educational Institute and Research Center</RegistrantName> <RegistrationAuthority>mEDRA</RegistrationAuthority> <WorkIdentifier> <WorkIDType>01</WorkIDType> <IDValue>1-84-813</IDValue> </WorkIdentifier> <SerialPublication> <SerialWork> <Title textformat="00" language="eng"> <TitleType>01</TitleType> <TitleText>International Journal of Endorsing Health Science Research (IJEHSR)</TitleText> </Title> <Publisher> <PublishingRole>01</PublishingRole> <PublisherName>Advance Educational Institute and Research Center</PublisherName> </Publisher> <CountryOfPublication>PK</CountryOfPublication> </SerialWork> <SerialVersion> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>01</ProductIDType> <IDValue>1</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>07</ProductIDType> <IDValue>23103841</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> <ProductForm>JD</ProductForm> <EpubFormat>01</EpubFormat> <EpubFormatDescription>Open Journal Systems (OJS)</EpubFormatDescription> </SerialVersion> <SerialVersion> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>07</ProductIDType> <IDValue>23073748</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> <ProductForm>JB</ProductForm> </SerialVersion> </SerialPublication> <JournalIssue> <JournalVolumeNumber>10</JournalVolumeNumber> <JournalIssueNumber>2</JournalIssueNumber> <JournalIssueDesignation>Vol 10 No 2 (2022): International Journal of Endorsing Health Science Research</JournalIssueDesignation> <JournalIssueDate> <DateFormat>06</DateFormat> <Date>2022</Date> </JournalIssueDate> </JournalIssue> <ContentItem> <SequenceNumber>11</SequenceNumber> <TextItem> <PageRun> <FirstPageNumber>227</FirstPageNumber> <LastPageNumber>232</LastPageNumber> </PageRun> </TextItem> <Title textformat="00" language="eng"> <TitleType>01</TitleType> <TitleText>Relationship of neck disability and fear-avoidance beliefs among bankers.</TitleText> </Title> <Contributor> <SequenceNumber>1</SequenceNumber> <ContributorRole>A01</ContributorRole> <PersonName>Faryal Shoukat</PersonName> <PersonNameInverted>Shoukat, Faryal</PersonNameInverted> <ProfessionalAffiliation> <Affiliation>Ziauddin College of Rehabilitation Sciences, Ziauddin University, Karachi-Pakistan.</Affiliation> </ProfessionalAffiliation> </Contributor> <Contributor> <SequenceNumber>2</SequenceNumber> <ContributorRole>A01</ContributorRole> <PersonName>Huzaifa Ather Rajar</PersonName> <PersonNameInverted>Rajar, Huzaifa Ather</PersonNameInverted> <ProfessionalAffiliation> <Affiliation>Ziauddin College of Rehabilitation Sciences, Ziauddin University, Karachi-Pakistan.</Affiliation> </ProfessionalAffiliation> </Contributor> <Contributor> <SequenceNumber>3</SequenceNumber> <ContributorRole>A01</ContributorRole> <PersonName>Nabeel Baig</PersonName> <PersonNameInverted>Baig, Nabeel</PersonNameInverted> <ProfessionalAffiliation> <Affiliation>Ziauddin College of Rehabilitation Sciences, Ziauddin University, Karachi-Pakistan.</Affiliation> </ProfessionalAffiliation> </Contributor> <Language> <LanguageRole>01</LanguageRole> <LanguageCode>eng</LanguageCode> </Language> <Subject> <SubjectSchemeIdentifier>23</SubjectSchemeIdentifier> <SubjectHeadingText>Bankers, Fear Avoidance Beliefs, Neck Disability, Neck Pain.</SubjectHeadingText> </Subject> <OtherText> <TextTypeCode>01</TextTypeCode> <Text textformat="00" language="eng"> Background: Neck Disability (ND) is a global health concern among bankers due to the prolonged computer usage demand of the job. Literature reported neck pain and fear of activity among bankers; however, evidence is scarce regarding the association between them. Therefore this survey aimed to evaluate the relationship between ND and Fear Avoidance Beliefs (FAB) among bankers.  Methodology: A cross-sectional survey was conducted on bankers of Karachi, Pakistan, using a convenience sampling technique. Volunteer bankers working for two or more years, and having neck pain for more than three months were enrolled in the study. ND was evaluated using Neck Disability Index (NDI) questionnaire and FAB questionnaire to assess activity fear. Statistical analysis was undertaken using SPSS version 20. Pearson correlation test was used to analyze the association between ND and FAB. P-value <0.05 was considered statistically significant at 95% CI.  Results: A total of 100 bankers were included in the study. The Pearson correlation test shows a significant moderate and positive correlation between NDI and FAB among bankers (r=0.61).  Conclusion: It was concluded that the bankers suffer from ND and fear of activity performance, and a significant moderate and positive association was found between ND and FAB.

Histological findings in the lungs, such as microthrombi, perivascular lymphocytic infiltrate, and necrosis/infarction, can also be seen in the histopathology of the appendix of COVID-19 +ve patients.  Methodology: This cross-sectional study was conducted in Dr. Ziauddin Hospital, a tertiary care center in Karachi, Pakistan. In this research article, the histopathology reports of the appendix of COVID-19 +ve patients presenting with acute appendicitis, either antigen or PCR positive, are compared with those of non-COVID patients who presented with acute appendicitis. The data was analyzed using SPSS 20.0, and Pearson’s Chi-Square and Cramer's V tests were performed for analysis.  Results: Comparing the histopathology reports of COVID-19 +ve and non-COVID patients presenting with acute appendicitis, an appendix of COVID-19 +ve patients shows microthrombi; perivascular lymphocytic infiltrates, and necrosis/infarction.  Conclusion: Patients who are COVID-19 +ve presenting with acute appendicitis should be treated surgically as soon as possible to reduce the risk of acute presentation, ultimately leading to perforation, and not wait for the patient to recover from COVID infection first. </Text> </OtherText> <PublicationDate>20220601</PublicationDate> <RelatedWork> <RelationCode>81</RelationCode> <WorkIdentifier> <WorkIDType>01</WorkIDType> <IDValue>1-84</IDValue> </WorkIdentifier> </RelatedWork> <RelatedProduct> <RelationCode>89</RelationCode> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>01</ProductIDType> <IDValue>1-84-778-g836</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> </RelatedProduct> </ContentItem> </DOISerialArticleWork> <DOISerialArticleWork> <NotificationType>06</NotificationType> <DOI>10.29052/IJEHSR.v10.i2.2022.167-171</DOI> <DOIWebsiteLink>https://aeirc-edu.com/ojs14/index.php/IJEHSR/article/view/843</DOIWebsiteLink> <DOIStructuralType>Abstraction</DOIStructuralType> <RegistrantName>Advance Educational Institute and Research Center</RegistrantName> <RegistrationAuthority>mEDRA</RegistrationAuthority> <WorkIdentifier> <WorkIDType>01</WorkIDType> <IDValue>1-84-843</IDValue> </WorkIdentifier> <SerialPublication> <SerialWork> <Title textformat="00" language="eng"> <TitleType>01</TitleType> <TitleText>International Journal of Endorsing Health Science Research (IJEHSR)</TitleText> </Title> <Publisher> <PublishingRole>01</PublishingRole> <PublisherName>Advance Educational Institute and Research Center</PublisherName> </Publisher> <CountryOfPublication>PK</CountryOfPublication> </SerialWork> <SerialVersion> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>01</ProductIDType> <IDValue>1</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>07</ProductIDType> <IDValue>23103841</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> <ProductForm>JD</ProductForm> <EpubFormat>01</EpubFormat> <EpubFormatDescription>Open Journal Systems (OJS)</EpubFormatDescription> </SerialVersion> <SerialVersion> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>07</ProductIDType> <IDValue>23073748</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> <ProductForm>JB</ProductForm> </SerialVersion> </SerialPublication> <JournalIssue> <JournalVolumeNumber>10</JournalVolumeNumber> <JournalIssueNumber>2</JournalIssueNumber> <JournalIssueDesignation>Vol 10 No 2 (2022): International Journal of Endorsing Health Science Research</JournalIssueDesignation> <JournalIssueDate> <DateFormat>06</DateFormat> <Date>2022</Date> </JournalIssueDate> </JournalIssue> <ContentItem> <SequenceNumber>3</SequenceNumber> <TextItem> <PageRun> <FirstPageNumber>167</FirstPageNumber> <LastPageNumber>171</LastPageNumber> </PageRun> </TextItem> <Title textformat="00" language="eng"> <TitleType>01</TitleType> <TitleText>Incidental renal neoplasia following simple nephrectomy of the non-functioning kidney.

While for renal tumors, radical nephrectomy is done, which involves the removal of the kidney with gerota’s fascia along with the ureter. Histopathology of patients who undergo simple nephrectomy sometime reveals renal malignancy. Such patients often need further treatment as simple nephrectomy in such cases is mostly suboptimal. The number of studies reporting tumors in simple nephrectomy specimens is limited. We aim to report single-center pathological findings in nephrectomy specimens from patients treated for non-functioning kidneys due to renal stone disease.  Methodology: The medical record of patients (n=210) who underwent simple nephrectomy between 2014 and 2021 at the Kidney Centre Postgraduate Training Institute due to renal stone disease was reviewed retrospectively.  Results: The total number of patients undergoing simple nephrectomy for non-functioning kidneys due to stone disease was 210. Of those patients, 117 were males, and 93 were females. The mean age was 45.33 ± 17.65 years. The histopathology report of specimens revealed renal malignancy in 10 patients (4.76%), xanthogranulomatous pyelonephritis in 11 patients, tuberculosis of the kidney in 7 patients, and chronic pyelonephritis in 182 patients.  Conclusion: In conclusion, the prevalence of renal malignancy in patients undergoing simple nephrectomy is significantly high. </Text> </OtherText>

<TextTypeCode>01</TextTypeCode> <Text textformat="00" language="eng"> Background: Anterior knee pain is the most common problem encountered by clinicians with an estimated prevalence of 15-45% around the globe. Thereby, this study aimed to determine the effects of isometrics and short arc quadriceps exercises on patients with patellofemoral knee pain.  Methodology: The quasi-experimental study was conducted in Ameen Medical and Dental Centre, Karachi on a total of 80 anterior knee pain patients, including both genders and ages ranging from 16-40 years. The individuals were divided into two equal groups A and B (n=40) which followed isometric and short arc quadriceps exercises regimen, respectively. The pre and post-assessment of pain, muscle activity, muscle thickness measurement, and health-related quality of life (HRQoL) was done using Kujala assessment score, visual analog scale, Electromyography (EMG) biofeedback, and rehabilitative ultrasound imaging, respectively on the first day, 6th and 8th week of exercises session.  Results: The results showed that pain was much decreased from 1st to 8th week after following Short arc quadriceps exercises (p<0.0001). The results also showed the higher muscle efficacy and HRQoL after following short arc quadriceps exercises, whereas Rehabilitative Ultrasound showed the higher effectiveness of Isometric quadricep exercises in increasing the muscle mass.  Conclusion: It is concluded that the short arc quadriceps exercises have greater effectiveness in reducing pain, enhancing muscle activity, and increasing the HRQoL, whereas isometric quadricep exercises have shown beneficial effects in increasing muscle mass. </Text> </OtherText> <PublicationDate>20220530</PublicationDate> <RelatedWork> <RelationCode>81</RelationCode> <WorkIdentifier> <WorkIDType>01</WorkIDType> <IDValue>1-84</IDValue> </WorkIdentifier> </RelatedWork> <RelatedProduct> <RelationCode>89</RelationCode> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>01</ProductIDType> <IDValue>1-84-802-g834</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> </RelatedProduct> </ContentItem> </DOISerialArticleWork> <DOISerialArticleWork> <NotificationType>06</NotificationType> <DOI>10.29052/IJEHSR.v10.i2.2022.202-212</DOI> <DOIWebsiteLink>https://aeirc-edu.com/ojs14/index.php/IJEHSR/article/view/835</DOIWebsiteLink> <DOIStructuralType>Abstraction</DOIStructuralType> <RegistrantName>Advance Educational Institute and Research Center</RegistrantName> <RegistrationAuthority>mEDRA</RegistrationAuthority> <WorkIdentifier> <WorkIDType>01</WorkIDType> <IDValue>1-84-835</IDValue> </WorkIdentifier> <SerialPublication> <SerialWork> <Title textformat="00" language="eng"> <TitleType>01</TitleType> <TitleText>International Journal of Endorsing Health Science Research (IJEHSR)</TitleText> </Title> <Publisher> <PublishingRole>01</PublishingRole> <PublisherName>Advance Educational Institute and Research Center</PublisherName> </Publisher> <CountryOfPublication>PK</CountryOfPublication> </SerialWork> <SerialVersion> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>01</ProductIDType> <IDValue>1</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>07</ProductIDType> <IDValue>23103841</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> <ProductForm>JD</ProductForm> <EpubFormat>01</EpubFormat> <EpubFormatDescription>Open Journal Systems (OJS)</EpubFormatDescription> </SerialVersion> <SerialVersion> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>07</ProductIDType> <IDValue>23073748</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> <ProductForm>JB</ProductForm> </SerialVersion> </SerialPublication> <JournalIssue> <JournalVolumeNumber>10</JournalVolumeNumber> <JournalIssueNumber>2</JournalIssueNumber> <JournalIssueDesignation>Vol 10 No 2 (2022): International Journal of Endorsing Health Science Research</JournalIssueDesignation> <JournalIssueDate> <DateFormat>06</DateFormat> <Date>2022</Date> </JournalIssueDate> </JournalIssue> <ContentItem> <SequenceNumber>8</SequenceNumber> <TextItem> <PageRun> <FirstPageNumber>202</FirstPageNumber> <LastPageNumber>212</LastPageNumber> </PageRun> </TextItem> <Title textformat="00" language="eng"> <TitleType>01</TitleType> <TitleText>Isolation and identification of Biofilm-producing E. coli from drinking water.</TitleText> </Title> <Contributor> <SequenceNumber>1</SequenceNumber> <ContributorRole>A01</ContributorRole> <PersonName>Aiman Fatima</PersonName> <PersonNameInverted>Fatima, Aiman</PersonNameInverted> <ProfessionalAffiliation> <Affiliation>1.

Nowadays, water-borne infections become more resistant to treatment due to biofilm formation and excessive use of antibiotics. Biofilm formation in water deteriorates the quality of water. This study identified and characterized biofilm-producing E. coli in drinking water.  Methodology: Water samples were analyzed for heterotrophic plate count and total coliforms, fecal coliforms, and E. coli. The Kirby disk bar diffusion method was used to investigate antibiotic susceptibility in biofilm-producing E. coli. The Congo red and tube ring methods were used to identify biofilm producers. The effect of biofilm formation on the hydrophobicity of E. coli was performed by the BATH method. The soft agar method determines the colony spreading ability of biofilm and non-biofilm producers. Molecular characterization of virulence genes of E. coli was performed by a PCR. Scanning electron microscopy for biofilm construction was conducted.  Results: The total 120 water samples were tested for heterotrophic plate count and total coliforms, fecal coliforms, and E. coli. 78% were unfit in this study, and 21.66% were fit. 38 E. coli strains were found in water samples. According to findings, the hydrophobicity of biofilm-producing isolates increased with the incubation period. Colony-forming unit drops one logarithm in the biofilm state compared to the planktonic stage. Biofilm producers were more resistant to antibiotics. The virulence genes, pet, lt, and stx2, were used for the molecular characterization.  Conclusion: The presence of biofilm-producing E. coli in drinking water is alarming, and it indicates inappropriate treatment of the water supply system. To prevent rapid water-borne diseases, adequate actions are required to control drinking-water biofilm producers. </Text> </OtherText> <PublicationDate>20220525</PublicationDate> <RelatedWork> <RelationCode>81</RelationCode> <WorkIdentifier> <WorkIDType>01</WorkIDType> <IDValue>1-84</IDValue> </WorkIdentifier> </RelatedWork> <RelatedProduct> <RelationCode>89</RelationCode> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>01</ProductIDType> <IDValue>1-84-835-g832</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> </RelatedProduct> </ContentItem> </DOISerialArticleWork> <DOISerialArticleWork> <NotificationType>06</NotificationType> <DOI>10.29052/IJEHSR.v10.i2.2022.213-219</DOI> <DOIWebsiteLink>https://aeirc-edu.com/ojs14/index.php/IJEHSR/article/view/828</DOIWebsiteLink> <DOIStructuralType>Abstraction</DOIStructuralType> <RegistrantName>Advance Educational Institute and Research Center</RegistrantName> <RegistrationAuthority>mEDRA</RegistrationAuthority> <WorkIdentifier> <WorkIDType>01</WorkIDType> <IDValue>1-84-828</IDValue> </WorkIdentifier> <SerialPublication> <SerialWork> <Title textformat="00" language="eng"> <TitleType>01</TitleType> <TitleText>International Journal of Endorsing Health Science Research (IJEHSR)</TitleText> </Title> <Publisher> <PublishingRole>01</PublishingRole> <PublisherName>Advance Educational Institute and Research Center</PublisherName> </Publisher> <CountryOfPublication>PK</CountryOfPublication> </SerialWork> <SerialVersion> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>01</ProductIDType> <IDValue>1</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>07</ProductIDType> <IDValue>23103841</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> <ProductForm>JD</ProductForm> <EpubFormat>01</EpubFormat> <EpubFormatDescription>Open Journal Systems (OJS)</EpubFormatDescription> </SerialVersion> <SerialVersion> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>07</ProductIDType> <IDValue>23073748</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> <ProductForm>JB</ProductForm> </SerialVersion> </SerialPublication> <JournalIssue> <JournalVolumeNumber>10</JournalVolumeNumber> <JournalIssueNumber>2</JournalIssueNumber> <JournalIssueDesignation>Vol 10 No 2 (2022): International Journal of Endorsing Health Science Research</JournalIssueDesignation> <JournalIssueDate> <DateFormat>06</DateFormat> <Date>2022</Date> </JournalIssueDate> </JournalIssue> <ContentItem> <SequenceNumber>9</SequenceNumber> <TextItem> <PageRun> <FirstPageNumber>213</FirstPageNumber> <LastPageNumber>219</LastPageNumber> </PageRun> </TextItem> <Title textformat="00" language="eng"> <TitleType>01</TitleType> <TitleText>The therapeutic potential of Nelumbo Nucifera against oxidative damage induced by Carbon Tetrachloride in rats.</TitleText> </Title> <Contributor> <SequenceNumber>1</SequenceNumber> <ContributorRole>A01</ContributorRole> <PersonName>Sagheera Bibi</PersonName> <PersonNameInverted>Bibi, Sagheera</PersonNameInverted> <ProfessionalAffiliation> <Affiliation>Department of Physiology, University of Karachi, Karachi-Pakistan.</Affiliation> </ProfessionalAffiliation> </Contributor> <Contributor> <SequenceNumber>2</SequenceNumber> <ContributorRole>A01</ContributorRole> <PersonName>Lubna Naz</PersonName> <PersonNameInverted>Naz, Lubna</PersonNameInverted> <ProfessionalAffiliation> <Affiliation>Department of Physiology, University of Karachi, Karachi-Pakistan.</Affiliation> </ProfessionalAffiliation> </Contributor> <Language> <LanguageRole>01</LanguageRole> <LanguageCode>eng</LanguageCode> </Language> <Subject> <SubjectSchemeIdentifier>23</SubjectSchemeIdentifier> <SubjectHeadingText>Herbal Treatment, Nelumbo Nucifera, Carbon Tetrachloride, Oxidative Stress.</SubjectHeadingText> </Subject> <OtherText> <TextTypeCode>01</TextTypeCode> <Text textformat="00" language="eng"> Background: Herbal treatment has paid much attention in the world over the past decades. Nelumbo nucifera is used all over the world as a medicinal plant. It is an aquatic perennial plant belonging to the Nelumbonaceae family. The protective effects of Nelumbo nucifera are due to the active ingredients present in it. The study was conducted to evaluate the protective effects of Nelumbo nucifera seeds against hepatotoxicity caused by carbon tetrachloride (CCl4) in rats.  Methodology: Eighteen Wistar Albino rats were allotted into three groups (n=6), control group, CCl4 treated group given CCl4 0.8 ml/kg body weight subcutaneously twice a week, CCl4 + N. Nucifera treated group given CCl4 0.8 ml/kg body weight 2 times a week subcutaneously and also given Nelumbo nucifera extract (200 mg/kg body weight) orally through gavage daily. After 28 days of the experiment, serum samples were taken for estimation of enzyme activities and liver tissue samples were collected for evaluation of antioxidant enzyme levels.  Results: It was observed that liver weight increased in the CCl4 treated group while liver weight decreased in CCl4 + N. Nucifera treated group. CCl4 administration significantly raises the transaminase levels such as Aspartate transaminase (AST) (p<0.01), Aspartate transaminase (ALT) (p<0.05), and Alkaline phosphatase (ALP) (p<0.05) whereas CCl4 + N. Nucifera treated group serum transaminases are reduced. Antioxidant activities such as Catalase (p>0.05), Glutathione (GSH) (p>0.05) and Superoxide dismutase (SOD) (p=0.05) decreased in the CCl4 treated group. Significant elevation of antioxidant enzymes; Catalase (p<0.05), GSH (p<0.05) and SOD (p>0.05) in CCl4 + N. Nucifera treated group. Serum Malondialdehyde (MDA) concentration (p<0.05) significantly raised in the CCl4 hepatotoxic group compared to the control group. A decreased MDA levels were observed in the CCl4 + N. Nucifera treated group, indicating its potential to counteract the harmful effects of CCl4.  Conclusion: This study suggests that Nelumbo nucifera seeds have overcome CCl4-induced hepatotoxicity by their antioxidant effects. </Text> </OtherText> <PublicationDate>20220525</PublicationDate> <RelatedWork> <RelationCode>81</RelationCode> <WorkIdentifier> <WorkIDType>01</WorkIDType>

anaesthesia is the most appropriate method that is more advantageous than general anaesthesia. The study was planned to comparatively assess the effects of hyperbaric 0.5% Bupivacaine with isobaric 0.5% Ropivacaine in Elective Lower Limb Surgery.  Methodology: One hundred patients belonging to American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) class I and II were selected for elective lower segment operation. Participants were assorted into two groups without following any fixed criteria and treated as; Group B and R, injected with bupivacaine in 0.5% hyperbaric condition and 0.5% isobaric ropivacaine, respectively.  Results: The time of onset of blockage of sensation was prominently lesser in Group B contrary to Group R. The time slot of attainment of maximum sensory block up to T6 level was statistically significant and was smaller in Group B. The duration for the two-segment regression's sensorial blockage was more duration in Group B. The average extent of blockage of sensation was lesser in the R group. The time to achieve maximum motor blockage when testing via Bromage scale 2 was lower in the B group. In group B, the mean duration of the motor blockade was calibrated from the Bromage scale.  Conclusion: The use of ropivacaine given for lower segment surgeries provided an efficient level of block required during the surgery with a speedy outset of motor and sensory blockade and less time needed to achieve motor blockade. </Text> </OtherText> <PublicationDate>20220521</PublicationDate> <RelatedWork> <RelationCode>81</RelationCode> <WorkIdentifier> <WorkIDType>01</WorkIDType> <IDValue>1-84</IDValue> </WorkIdentifier> </RelatedWork> <RelatedProduct> <RelationCode>89</RelationCode> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>01</ProductIDType> <IDValue>1-84-792-g828</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> </RelatedProduct> </ContentItem> </DOISerialArticleWork> <DOISerialArticleWork> <NotificationType>06</NotificationType> <DOI>10.29052/IJEHSR.v10.i2.2022.195-201</DOI> <DOIWebsiteLink>https://aeirc-edu.com/ojs14/index.php/IJEHSR/article/view/693</DOIWebsiteLink> <DOIStructuralType>Abstraction</DOIStructuralType> <RegistrantName>Advance Educational Institute and Research Center</RegistrantName> <RegistrationAuthority>mEDRA</RegistrationAuthority> <WorkIdentifier> <WorkIDType>01</WorkIDType> <IDValue>1-84-693</IDValue> </WorkIdentifier> <SerialPublication> <SerialWork> <Title textformat="00" language="eng"> <TitleType>01</TitleType> <TitleText>International Journal of Endorsing Health Science Research (IJEHSR)</TitleText> </Title> <Publisher> <PublishingRole>01</PublishingRole> <PublisherName>Advance Educational Institute and Research Center</PublisherName> </Publisher> <CountryOfPublication>PK</CountryOfPublication> </SerialWork> <SerialVersion> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>01</ProductIDType> <IDValue>1</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>07</ProductIDType> <IDValue>23103841</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> <ProductForm>JD</ProductForm> <EpubFormat>01</EpubFormat> <EpubFormatDescription>Open Journal Systems (OJS)</EpubFormatDescription> </SerialVersion> <SerialVersion> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>07</ProductIDType> <IDValue>23073748</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> <ProductForm>JB</ProductForm> </SerialVersion> </SerialPublication> <JournalIssue> <JournalVolumeNumber>10</JournalVolumeNumber> <JournalIssueNumber>2</JournalIssueNumber> <JournalIssueDesignation>Vol 10 No 2 (2022): International Journal of Endorsing Health Science Research</JournalIssueDesignation> <JournalIssueDate> <DateFormat>06</DateFormat> <Date>2022</Date> </JournalIssueDate> </JournalIssue> <ContentItem> <SequenceNumber>7</SequenceNumber> <TextItem> <PageRun> <FirstPageNumber>195</FirstPageNumber> <LastPageNumber>201</LastPageNumber> </PageRun> </TextItem> <Title textformat="00" language="eng"> <TitleType>01</TitleType> <TitleText>Screening of different doses of lyophilized beetroot for their hematopoietic potential.</TitleText> </Title> <Contributor> <SequenceNumber>1</SequenceNumber> <ContributorRole>A01</ContributorRole> <PersonName>Sana Sarfaraz</PersonName> <PersonNameInverted>Sarfaraz, Sana</PersonNameInverted> <ProfessionalAffiliation> <Affiliation>Department of Pharmacology, Faculty of Pharmacy & Pharmaceutical Sciences, University of Karachi, Karachi-Pakistan.</Affiliation> </ProfessionalAffiliation> </Contributor> <Contributor> <SequenceNumber>2</SequenceNumber> <ContributorRole>A01</ContributorRole> <PersonName>Rahela Ikram</PersonName> <PersonNameInverted>Ikram, Rahela</PersonNameInverted> <ProfessionalAffiliation> <Affiliation>Department of Pharmacy, Salim Habib University, Karachi-Pakistan.</Affiliation> </ProfessionalAffiliation> </Contributor> <Contributor> <SequenceNumber>3</SequenceNumber> <ContributorRole>A01</ContributorRole> <PersonName>Rabia Munawwar</PersonName> <PersonNameInverted>Munawwar, Rabia</PersonNameInverted> <ProfessionalAffiliation> <Affiliation>Department of Pharmacology, Faculty of Pharmacy, Jinnah Sindh Medical University, Karachi-Pakistan.</Affiliation> </ProfessionalAffiliation> </Contributor> <Contributor> <SequenceNumber>4</SequenceNumber> <ContributorRole>A01</ContributorRole> <PersonName>Sabiha Gul</PersonName> <PersonNameInverted>Gul, Sabiha</PersonNameInverted> <ProfessionalAffiliation> <Affiliation>Department of Pharmacology, Faculty of Pharmacy, Hamdard University, Karachi-Pakistan.</Affiliation> </ProfessionalAffiliation> </Contributor> <Language> <LanguageRole>01</LanguageRole> <LanguageCode>eng</LanguageCode> </Language> <Subject> <SubjectSchemeIdentifier>23</SubjectSchemeIdentifier> <SubjectHeadingText>Beetroot, Erythrocytes, Hemoglobin, Thrombocytes, Leukocytes.</SubjectHeadingText> </Subject> <OtherText> <TextTypeCode>01</TextTypeCode> <Text textformat="00" language="eng"> Background: Beetroots are considered a vital source of nutrition and are usually incorporated into the daily diet to prevent different disease conditions. The therapeutic effect observed is due to the presence of active ingredients in the vegetables. The majority of our population, especially females, suffers from anemia due to malnutrition. The perseverance of this research was to explore the hematopoietic effects of lyophilized beetroot powder at different doses so they could be recommended as a nutritional supplement.  Methodology: Albino rabbits weighing 1500-2000 gm of either gender were selected for the study and alienated into three sets. Set I was administered distilled water, whereas sets II and III were given lyophilized beetroot 500 mg/kg and 1000 mg/kg, correspondingly. For hematopoietic evaluation of blood, automated huma count plus was utilized. After adjusting according to their weights, lyophilized beetroot powder was suspended in distilled water and given at 500 mg/kg and 1000 mg/kg to rabbits. They were dosed once daily for two months.  Results: The effects were verified before the dosing was scheduled and on the 30th day and 60th day of dosing. The outcomes presented a highly noteworthy increase (p<0.0001) in hemoglobin, erythrocyte count, hematocrit, leukocyte count, and thrombocytes by both doses. 500 mg/kg dose showed a more significant increase in leukocytes and thrombocyte count compared to 1000 mg/kg, whereas 1000 mg/kg showed a more substantial increase in erythrocytes and Hb as compared to 500 mg/kg at the conclusion of the study period.  Conclusion: From the above, it can be concluded that beetroot possesses pronounced hematopoietic effects and might be beneficial as a non-pharmacological treatment for anemia and thrombocytopenia. </Text> </OtherText> <PublicationDate>20220519</PublicationDate> <RelatedWork> <RelationCode>81</RelationCode> <WorkIdentifier> <WorkIDType>01</WorkIDType> <IDValue>1-84</IDValue>

–Thalassemia patients have lower HRQoL than healthy individuals. The impact of Hydroxyurea is always measured with the clinical investigations in terms of laboratory diagnosis. This study aimed to seek out the impact of the drug Hydroxyurea on improving physical health problems of Quality of Life (QoL) of β – Thalassemia patients with the moderating role of healthcare professionals.  Methodology: In this research, a deductive approach was adopted whereby hypotheses were originated first, followed by organizing a well-structured questionnaire as a tool for measuring the data. The nature of the research was explanatory and based on primary quantitative data. The data was collected from 290 patients visited in the outpatient and daycare departments of the National Institute of Blood Diseases and Bone Marrow Transplantation Hospital.  Results: This study revealed that the impact of Hydroxyurea therapy on improving the physical health problems of Beta Thalassemia is not evident as per the analysis (r=0.079; p=0.178). Similarly, a weak positive non-significant correlation exists between Hydroxyurea therapy and the performance of healthcare professionals in the hospital (r=0.016; p=0.782). Moreover, no significant improvement was observed in physical health problems and health domain of QoL of BT patients by moderating the role of healthcare professional performance (p=0.4471 and 0.4102, respectively).  Conclusion: It is concluded that moderating the role of healthcare professionals' performance does not improve the impact of Hydroxyurea on physical health problems and domains of QoL of β – Thalassemia patients. </Text> </OtherText> <PublicationDate>20220517</PublicationDate> <RelatedWork> <RelationCode>81</RelationCode> <WorkIdentifier> <WorkIDType>01</WorkIDType> <IDValue>1-84</IDValue> </WorkIdentifier> </RelatedWork> <RelatedProduct> <RelationCode>89</RelationCode> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>01</ProductIDType> <IDValue>1-84-825-g830</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> </RelatedProduct> </ContentItem> </DOISerialArticleWork> <DOISerialArticleWork> <NotificationType>06</NotificationType> <DOI>10.29052/IJEHSR.v10.i2.2022.150-156</DOI> <DOIWebsiteLink>https://aeirc-edu.com/ojs14/index.php/IJEHSR/article/view/812</DOIWebsiteLink> <DOIStructuralType>Abstraction</DOIStructuralType> <RegistrantName>Advance Educational Institute and Research Center</RegistrantName> <RegistrationAuthority>mEDRA</RegistrationAuthority> <WorkIdentifier> <WorkIDType>01</WorkIDType> <IDValue>1-84-812</IDValue> </WorkIdentifier> <SerialPublication> <SerialWork> <Title textformat="00" language="eng"> <TitleType>01</TitleType> <TitleText>International Journal of Endorsing Health Science Research (IJEHSR)</TitleText> </Title> <Publisher> <PublishingRole>01</PublishingRole> <PublisherName>Advance Educational Institute and Research Center</PublisherName> </Publisher> <CountryOfPublication>PK</CountryOfPublication> </SerialWork> <SerialVersion> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>01</ProductIDType> <IDValue>1</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>07</ProductIDType> <IDValue>23103841</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> <ProductForm>JD</ProductForm> <EpubFormat>01</EpubFormat> <EpubFormatDescription>Open Journal Systems (OJS)</EpubFormatDescription> </SerialVersion> <SerialVersion> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>07</ProductIDType> <IDValue>23073748</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> <ProductForm>JB</ProductForm> </SerialVersion> </SerialPublication> <JournalIssue> <JournalVolumeNumber>10</JournalVolumeNumber> <JournalIssueNumber>2</JournalIssueNumber> <JournalIssueDesignation>Vol 10 No 2 (2022): International Journal of Endorsing Health Science Research</JournalIssueDesignation> <JournalIssueDate> <DateFormat>06</DateFormat> <Date>2022</Date> </JournalIssueDate> </JournalIssue> <ContentItem> <SequenceNumber>1</SequenceNumber> <TextItem> <PageRun> <FirstPageNumber>150</FirstPageNumber> <LastPageNumber>156</LastPageNumber> </PageRun> </TextItem> <Title textformat="00" language="eng"> <TitleType>01</TitleType> <TitleText>Isolation and identification of Murine Mesenchymal Stem Cells from Bone Marrow.</TitleText> </Title> <Contributor> <SequenceNumber>1</SequenceNumber> <ContributorRole>A01</ContributorRole> <PersonName>Sehrish Jabeen</PersonName> <PersonNameInverted>Jabeen, Sehrish</PersonNameInverted> <ProfessionalAffiliation> <Affiliation>Department of Microbiology, University of Karachi, Karachi-Pakistan.</Affiliation> </ProfessionalAffiliation> </Contributor> <Contributor> <SequenceNumber>2</SequenceNumber> <ContributorRole>A01</ContributorRole> <PersonName>Muhammad Sufyan Vohra</PersonName> <PersonNameInverted>Vohra, Muhammad Sufyan</PersonNameInverted> <ProfessionalAffiliation> <Affiliation>One Health Diagnostics, Karachi-Pakistan.</Affiliation> </ProfessionalAffiliation> </Contributor> <Contributor> <SequenceNumber>3</SequenceNumber> <ContributorRole>A01</ContributorRole> <PersonName>Yasir Raza</PersonName> <PersonNameInverted>Raza, Yasir</PersonNameInverted> <ProfessionalAffiliation> <Affiliation>Department of Microbiology, University of Karachi, Karachi-Pakistan.</Affiliation> </ProfessionalAffiliation> </Contributor> <Language> <LanguageRole>01</LanguageRole> <LanguageCode>eng</LanguageCode> </Language> <Subject> <SubjectSchemeIdentifier>23</SubjectSchemeIdentifier> <SubjectHeadingText>Mesenchymal Stem Cells, In Vitro Culture, Immunofluorescence Staining.</SubjectHeadingText> </Subject> <OtherText> <TextTypeCode>01</TextTypeCode> <Text textformat="00" language="eng"> Background: Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are beneficial for cell and gene therapy approaches. These cells are highly potent in producing various cells, including adipocytes, osteoblasts, hematopoietic cells, etc., particularly bone marrow-derived. High proliferation and regenerative capacity are important phenotypes of MSCs which contribute to the recovery process at the damaged sites. Various techniques have been used, which have inconvenient effects on stromal cell properties. The present study evaluates the stem cell markers in the isolated cells from the Murine mouse bone marrow.  Methodology: The murine mesenchymal stem cells (mMSCs) were isolated from the bone marrow of murine Balb/c mice using a simple in vitro culture protocol. Trypan blue exclusion assay was performed for viable cell count, and cellular morphology was checked using an inverted microscope. The immunofluorescence staining was done to analyze the immunophenotypic features of mMSCs by treating cells with CD44, CD90, and CD45 fluorescent antibodies.  Results: mMSCs with spindle-like cell appearance were attained within three weeks. Immunofluorescence staining of isolated mMSCs displayed a statistically significant (p<0.001) number of CD44 and CD90 positive cells. Alternatively, an insignificant count of CD45 labeled cells was found.  Conclusion: A uniform mMSC population was achieved with high propagation capability in lower passages through regular replacement of medium and reduced trypsinization time. In addition, mMSCs were strongly expressed MSCs positive markers, including CD44 and CD90. </Text> </OtherText> <PublicationDate>20220516</PublicationDate> <RelatedWork> <RelationCode>81</RelationCode> <WorkIdentifier> <WorkIDType>01</WorkIDType> <IDValue>1-84</IDValue> </WorkIdentifier> </RelatedWork> <RelatedProduct> <RelationCode>89</RelationCode> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>01</ProductIDType> <IDValue>1-84-812-g825</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> </RelatedProduct> </ContentItem> </DOISerialArticleWork> <DOISerialArticleWork> <NotificationType>06</NotificationType> <DOI>10.29052/IJEHSR.v10.i2.2022.179-187</DOI> <DOIWebsiteLink>https://aeirc-edu.com/ojs14/index.php/IJEHSR/article/view/844</DOIWebsiteLink> <DOIStructuralType>Abstraction</DOIStructuralType> <RegistrantName>Advance Educational Institute and Research Center</RegistrantName> <RegistrationAuthority>mEDRA</RegistrationAuthority> <WorkIdentifier> <WorkIDType>01</WorkIDType> <IDValue>1-84-844</IDValue> </WorkIdentifier> <SerialPublication> <SerialWork> <Title textformat="00" language="eng"> <TitleType>01</TitleType> <TitleText>International Journal of Endorsing Health Science Research (IJEHSR)</TitleText> </Title> <Publisher> <PublishingRole>01</PublishingRole> <PublisherName>Advance Educational Institute and Research Center</PublisherName> </Publisher> <CountryOfPublication>PK</CountryOfPublication> </SerialWork> <SerialVersion> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>01</ProductIDType> <IDValue>1</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>07</ProductIDType> <IDValue>23103841</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> <ProductForm>JD</ProductForm> <EpubFormat>01</EpubFormat> <EpubFormatDescription>Open Journal Systems (OJS)</EpubFormatDescription> </SerialVersion> <SerialVersion> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>07</ProductIDType> <IDValue>23073748</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> <ProductForm>JB</ProductForm> </SerialVersion> </SerialPublication> <JournalIssue> <JournalVolumeNumber>10</JournalVolumeNumber> <JournalIssueNumber>2</JournalIssueNumber> <JournalIssueDesignation>Vol 10 No 2 (2022): International Journal of Endorsing Health Science Research</JournalIssueDesignation> <JournalIssueDate> <DateFormat>06</DateFormat> <Date>2022</Date> </JournalIssueDate> </JournalIssue> <ContentItem> <SequenceNumber>5</SequenceNumber> <TextItem> <PageRun> <FirstPageNumber>179</FirstPageNumber> <LastPageNumber>187</LastPageNumber> </PageRun> </TextItem> <Title textformat="00" language="eng"> <TitleType>01</TitleType> <TitleText>Knowledge and perception of doctors regarding antibiotic stewardship in a tertiary care hospital of Southern Punjab.</TitleText> </Title> <Contributor> <SequenceNumber>1</SequenceNumber> <ContributorRole>A01</ContributorRole> <PersonName>Moazzam Ali Atif</PersonName> <PersonNameInverted>Atif, Moazzam Ali</PersonNameInverted> <ProfessionalAffiliation> <Affiliation>Sheikh Zayed Medical College, Rahim Yar Khan-Pakistan.</Affiliation> </ProfessionalAffiliation> </Contributor> <Contributor> <SequenceNumber>2</SequenceNumber> <ContributorRole>A01</ContributorRole> <PersonName>Sana Tufail</PersonName> <PersonNameInverted>Tufail, Sana</PersonNameInverted> <ProfessionalAffiliation> <Affiliation>Sheikh Zayed Medical College, Rahim Yar Khan-Pakistan.</Affiliation> </ProfessionalAffiliation> </Contributor> <Language> <LanguageRole>01</LanguageRole> <LanguageCode>eng</LanguageCode> </Language> <Subject> <SubjectSchemeIdentifier>23</SubjectSchemeIdentifier> <SubjectHeadingText>Antibiotic Stewardship Programs, Antimicrobial Resistance, Junior Physicians, Knowledge, Perception.</SubjectHeadingText> </Subject> <OtherText> <TextTypeCode>01</TextTypeCode> <Text textformat="00" language="eng"> Background: Pakistan has been working on Antimicrobial Resistance (AMR) for a decade; unfortunately, there is a lack of concept of antibiotic stewardship in most health setups, especially in the public sector. This study aims to analyze the knowledge and perception of junior physicians towards antibiotic stewardship programs. The need for this knowledge and impact of antimicrobial resistance on antibiotic stewardship ascertain barriers to stewardship acceptance.  Methodology: A cross-sectional study was conducted at different clinical departments of Sheikh Zayed Hospital, Rahim Yar Khan, including 50 junior physicians recruited via convenience sampling technique. The data was collected using a structured questionnaire comprising physician's hospital associated data and questions regarding the knowledge, perspectives, and practices concerning antibiotic stewardship programs (ASP) to reduce AMR. Statistical analysis was done using SPSS version 22.0, and data were presented using frequencies and percentages.  Results: Most of the enrolled physicians knew AMR and agreed that it is a serious global health issue. However, all the medical officers were completely unaware of the antibiotic stewardship program, while 42.9% of house officers and only 25.7% of PGs knew about the program.  Conclusion: Our study shows support from doctors for expanded stewardship implementation and provides an important understanding of the current attitudes of doctors regarding stewardship execution.

<TextTypeCode>01</TextTypeCode> <Text textformat="00" language="eng"> Background: Complement activation occurs in the vessel's wall as serum lipids start to get deposited, marking the beginning of atherosclerosis formation. Carotid intima-media thickness (IMT) is a widely used tool for detecting atherosclerosis. This study objective was to correlate lipid profile with C3d levels and Carotid IMT in type 2 Diabetic patients.  Methodology: This case-control study comprised 120 male and female participants between 35 to 65 years of age. Of them, 90 type 2 diabetes patients were stratified according to the diabetes duration into four groups, Group A (n=30) <5 years of diabetic, Group B (n=30) 5-10 years of diabetic, Group C (n=30) >10 years diabetic and non-diabetic subjects healthy controls in Group D (n=30). The Anthropometric measurements (height, weight, and BMI), serum C3d level, carotid intima-media thickness (carotid IMT) &, serum levels of Cholesterol, Triglycerides, Low-density lipoprotein (LDL), and High-density lipoprotein (HDL) were evaluated.  Results: In Type 2 Diabetic patients with moderate to high levels of serum Cholesterol, the C3d levels were found to be significantly raised (10.58 ±3.87 µg/ml and 15.37 ± 2.51 µg/ml, respectively), but Carotid IMT was increased in patients with high Cholesterol (0.98 ± 0.11 mm). Patients with moderate to high levels of Triglycerides had C3d 11.03 ± 3.85 µg/ml and 13.66 ± 4.30 µg/ml, respectively, but Carotid IMT was observed to be raised in patients with higher triglycerides levels (1.00 ± 0.11 mm). Also, in patients with moderate to high serum LDL C3d were 10.26 ± 3.10 µg/ml and 13.14 ± 4.08 µg/ml, respectively, whereas Carotid IMT was increased in patients with high levels of LDL (0.93 ± 0.13 mm). The C3d (12.12 ± 4.42 µg/ml) and Carotid IMT (0.90 ± 0.13 mm) levels were increased as HDL decreased significantly.  Conclusion: Serum C3d can be used as an early marker of atherosclerosis formation, which increases as lipid levels exceed the normal range in diabetic type 2 patients compared to carotid IMT detected in patients with higher lipid parameters. </Text> </OtherText>

Disease-2019 (COVID-19) specific findings in patients imaged after the initial ten days of lockdown relief and the sensitivity of computed tomography (CT) in picking unknown ongoing disease processes.  Case presentations: In this study, we presented seven cases—three cases in plain CT pyelogram and four cases of post-contrast scans. Post-contrast scans of chest findings in case 1 showed few pre-vascular, pre-tracheal, and sub-carinal lymph nodes with calcified granuloma in the left lower zone accompanied by extensive bilateral peripheral Ground Glass Haze with alveolar opacification. In Case 2, multiple non-homogeneous areas of ground-glass haze diffusely involving both lung fields were seen. Case 3 showed a few sub-centimeters mediastinal lymph nodes with diffuse mosaic attenuation patterns in both lung fields along with multiple soft tissues density nodules in both lungs. While in Case 4, Patchy areas of alveolar opacification with surrounding ground-glass haze were noted in lower lobes.  Management and Results: Total 64 CT C/A/P (chest/abdomen/pelvis) with contrast scans and 120 plain pyelograms were done within ten days after lockdown relief, and it was observed that during the stricken lockdown, no incidental case of positive CT finding was observed. However, afterward, within this time, 44 cases (23.9%) were recorded in asymptomatic patients of COVID-19.  Conclusions: CT chest is highly sensitive in detecting COVID-19 with high accuracy of featuring progress in the disease and associated findings even in the initial stages. </Text> </OtherText> <PublicationDate>20220427</PublicationDate> <RelatedWork> <RelationCode>81</RelationCode> <WorkIdentifier> <WorkIDType>01</WorkIDType> <IDValue>1-84</IDValue> </WorkIdentifier> </RelatedWork> <RelatedProduct> <RelationCode>89</RelationCode> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>01</ProductIDType> <IDValue>1-84-782-g838</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> </RelatedProduct> </ContentItem> </DOISerialArticleWork> <DOISerialArticleWork> <NotificationType>06</NotificationType> <DOI>10.29052/IJEHSR.v10.i1.2022.95-101</DOI> <DOIWebsiteLink>https://aeirc-edu.com/ojs14/index.php/IJEHSR/article/view/797</DOIWebsiteLink> <DOIStructuralType>Abstraction</DOIStructuralType> <RegistrantName>Advance Educational Institute and Research Center</RegistrantName> <RegistrationAuthority>mEDRA</RegistrationAuthority> <WorkIdentifier> <WorkIDType>01</WorkIDType> <IDValue>1-83-797</IDValue> </WorkIdentifier> <SerialPublication> <SerialWork> <Title textformat="00" language="eng"> <TitleType>01</TitleType> <TitleText>International Journal of Endorsing Health Science Research (IJEHSR)</TitleText> </Title> <Publisher> <PublishingRole>01</PublishingRole> <PublisherName>Advance Educational Institute and Research Center</PublisherName> </Publisher> <CountryOfPublication>PK</CountryOfPublication> </SerialWork> <SerialVersion> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>01</ProductIDType> <IDValue>1</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>07</ProductIDType> <IDValue>23103841</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> <ProductForm>JD</ProductForm> <EpubFormat>01</EpubFormat> <EpubFormatDescription>Open Journal Systems (OJS)</EpubFormatDescription> </SerialVersion> <SerialVersion> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>07</ProductIDType> <IDValue>23073748</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> <ProductForm>JB</ProductForm> </SerialVersion> </SerialPublication> <JournalIssue> <JournalVolumeNumber>10</JournalVolumeNumber> <JournalIssueNumber>1</JournalIssueNumber> <JournalIssueDesignation>Vol 10 No 1 (2022): International Journal of Endorsing Health Science Research</JournalIssueDesignation> <JournalIssueDate> <DateFormat>06</DateFormat> <Date>2022</Date> </JournalIssueDate> </JournalIssue> <ContentItem> <SequenceNumber>13</SequenceNumber> <TextItem> <PageRun> <FirstPageNumber>95</FirstPageNumber> <LastPageNumber>101</LastPageNumber> </PageRun> </TextItem> <Title textformat="00" language="eng"> <TitleType>01</TitleType> <TitleText>Morphological Audit of glomerular diseases in a tertiary care Hospital.</TitleText> </Title> <Contributor> <SequenceNumber>1</SequenceNumber> <ContributorRole>A01</ContributorRole> <PersonName>Maria Shafique</PersonName> <PersonNameInverted>Shafique, Maria</PersonNameInverted> <ProfessionalAffiliation> <Affiliation>Ziauddin Medical University and Hospital, Karachi-Pakistan.</Affiliation> </ProfessionalAffiliation> </Contributor> <Contributor> <SequenceNumber>2</SequenceNumber> <ContributorRole>A01</ContributorRole> <PersonName>Uzma Bukhari</PersonName> <PersonNameInverted>Bukhari, Uzma</PersonNameInverted> <ProfessionalAffiliation> <Affiliation>Dow University of Health Sciences, Karachi-Pakistan.</Affiliation> </ProfessionalAffiliation> </Contributor> <Contributor> <SequenceNumber>3</SequenceNumber> <ContributorRole>A01</ContributorRole> <PersonName>Suresh Kumar</PersonName> <PersonNameInverted>Kumar, Suresh</PersonNameInverted> <ProfessionalAffiliation> <Affiliation>Dow University of Health Sciences, Karachi-Pakistan.</Affiliation> </ProfessionalAffiliation> </Contributor> <Contributor> <SequenceNumber>4</SequenceNumber> <ContributorRole>A01</ContributorRole> <PersonName>Anita George</PersonName> <PersonNameInverted>George, Anita</PersonNameInverted> <ProfessionalAffiliation> <Affiliation>Dow University of Health Sciences, Karachi-Pakistan.</Affiliation> </ProfessionalAffiliation> </Contributor> <Contributor> <SequenceNumber>5</SequenceNumber> <ContributorRole>A01</ContributorRole> <PersonName>Asma Bukhari</PersonName> <PersonNameInverted>Bukhari, Asma</PersonNameInverted> <ProfessionalAffiliation> <Affiliation>Ripha International University, Islamabad-Pakistan.</Affiliation> </ProfessionalAffiliation> <BiographicalNote> Research Associate.

Renal biopsy is a valuable diagnostic tool and provides prognostic insight and therapeutic plans. The study's objective is to determine the frequency and pattern of various glomerulopathies concerning age and gender.  Methodology: A cross-sectional study was performed at the Department of Pathology, Ziauddin Medical University, and Hospital, Karachi, from 19th December 2018 to 15th April 2019. A total of 91 patients were included of either gender with a clinical history of glomerulonephritis. All biopsy samples were analyzed by using light and immunofluorescence microscopy techniques. Patient data were compiled and analyzed through SPSS version 20.0.  Results: A total of 91 cases of the renal biopsy were evaluated; 51.6% of these cases were male patients. Forty-nine (53.8%) cases were reported as focal segmental glomerulosclerosis, 35(38.5%) were diagnosed with membranous glomerulonephritis, and 7(7.7%) were reported as mesangiocapillary glomerulonephritis. In membranous glomerulonephritis, 7.7% were pre-spike membranous glomerulonephritis. In the current study, 35.2% of cases showed diffuse glomerular basement membrane (GBM) thickening with spikes, and 4.4% showed GBM thickening with focal spikes on silver stain.  Conclusion: Glomerular diseases are slightly more prevalent in males than females. The most commonly diagnosed primary glomerulonephritis was focal segmental glomerulosclerosis, followed by membranous glomerulonephritis. </Text> </OtherText>

Of these, only 10 studies met the inclusion criteria of a scientific investigation of the effectiveness of long-distance Happy age education programs, including fun exercise and laughter that contain appropriate elaboration on theoretical constructs and methods.  Results: The qualitative assessment resulted that programs containing more fun-based interventions are effective regardless of the type of intervention. The effectiveness is also modulated by other variables such as the participant's education level, gender, current health status, and financial constraints.  Conclusion: This review suggests that the level of the community-dwelling older adults have seemed to benefit from Thai Chi Rhythmic exercises and laughter exercises. More studies of this topic with older adult populations are needed to select the most convenient Happy-age education program that can improve the level of Active-aging and prolong life with happiness can be fulfilled. </Text> </OtherText> <PublicationDate>20220228</PublicationDate> <RelatedWork> <RelationCode>81</RelationCode> <WorkIdentifier> <WorkIDType>01</WorkIDType> <IDValue>1-83</IDValue> </WorkIdentifier> </RelatedWork> <RelatedProduct> <RelationCode>89</RelationCode> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>01</ProductIDType> <IDValue>1-83-783-g811</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> </RelatedProduct> </ContentItem> </DOISerialArticleWork> <DOISerialArticleWork> <NotificationType>06</NotificationType> <DOI>10.29052/IJEHSR.v10.i1.2022.102-109</DOI> <DOIWebsiteLink>https://aeirc-edu.com/ojs14/index.php/IJEHSR/article/view/767</DOIWebsiteLink> <DOIStructuralType>Abstraction</DOIStructuralType> <RegistrantName>Advance Educational Institute and Research Center</RegistrantName> <RegistrationAuthority>mEDRA</RegistrationAuthority> <WorkIdentifier> <WorkIDType>01</WorkIDType> <IDValue>1-83-767</IDValue> </WorkIdentifier> <SerialPublication> <SerialWork> <Title textformat="00" language="eng"> <TitleType>01</TitleType> <TitleText>International Journal of Endorsing Health Science Research (IJEHSR)</TitleText> </Title> <Publisher> <PublishingRole>01</PublishingRole> <PublisherName>Advance Educational Institute and Research Center</PublisherName> </Publisher> <CountryOfPublication>PK</CountryOfPublication> </SerialWork> <SerialVersion> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>01</ProductIDType> <IDValue>1</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>07</ProductIDType> <IDValue>23103841</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> <ProductForm>JD</ProductForm> <EpubFormat>01</EpubFormat> <EpubFormatDescription>Open Journal Systems (OJS)</EpubFormatDescription> </SerialVersion> <SerialVersion> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>07</ProductIDType> <IDValue>23073748</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> <ProductForm>JB</ProductForm> </SerialVersion> </SerialPublication> <JournalIssue> <JournalVolumeNumber>10</JournalVolumeNumber> <JournalIssueNumber>1</JournalIssueNumber> <JournalIssueDesignation>Vol 10 No 1 (2022): International Journal of Endorsing Health Science Research</JournalIssueDesignation> <JournalIssueDate> <DateFormat>06</DateFormat> <Date>2022</Date> </JournalIssueDate> </JournalIssue> <ContentItem> <SequenceNumber>14</SequenceNumber> <TextItem> <PageRun> <FirstPageNumber>102</FirstPageNumber> <LastPageNumber>109</LastPageNumber> </PageRun> </TextItem> <Title textformat="00" language="eng"> <TitleType>01</TitleType> <TitleText>Assessment of the glycemic and lipidemic profile of patients suffering from bipolar disorder.</TitleText> </Title> <Contributor> <SequenceNumber>1</SequenceNumber> <ContributorRole>A01</ContributorRole> <PersonName>Farid Ullah Shah</PersonName> <PersonNameInverted>Shah, Farid Ullah</PersonNameInverted> <ProfessionalAffiliation> <Affiliation>Department of Biochemistry, Rehman Medical College, Peshawar-Pakistan.</Affiliation> </ProfessionalAffiliation> </Contributor> <Contributor> <SequenceNumber>2</SequenceNumber> <ContributorRole>A01</ContributorRole> <PersonName>Awais Naeem</PersonName> <PersonNameInverted>Naeem, Awais</PersonNameInverted> <ProfessionalAffiliation> <Affiliation>Department of Medicine, Khyber Teaching Hospital, Peshawar-Pakistan.</Affiliation> </ProfessionalAffiliation> </Contributor> <Contributor> <SequenceNumber>3</SequenceNumber> <ContributorRole>A01</ContributorRole> <PersonName>Fahad Naim</PersonName> <PersonNameInverted>Naim, Fahad</PersonNameInverted> <ProfessionalAffiliation> <Affiliation>Department of Medicine, Khyber Teaching Hospital, Peshawar-Pakistan.</Affiliation> </ProfessionalAffiliation> </Contributor> <Contributor> <SequenceNumber>4</SequenceNumber> <ContributorRole>A01</ContributorRole> <PersonName>Wasim Ahmad</PersonName> <PersonNameInverted>Ahmad, Wasim</PersonNameInverted> <ProfessionalAffiliation> <Affiliation>Department of Allied Health Sciences, School Of Health Sciences, Peshawar-Pakistan.</Affiliation> </ProfessionalAffiliation> </Contributor> <Language> <LanguageRole>01</LanguageRole> <LanguageCode>eng</LanguageCode> </Language> <Subject> <SubjectSchemeIdentifier>23</SubjectSchemeIdentifier> <SubjectHeadingText>Hyperglycemia, Hyperlipidemia, Lipid Profile, Bipolar Disorders.</SubjectHeadingText> </Subject> <OtherText> <TextTypeCode>01</TextTypeCode> <Text textformat="00" language="eng"> Background: Impaired glycemic profile and cognitive impairment are generally associated with bipolar disorders. Patients on long-term use of psychotropic drugs are more prone to other medical abnormalities etc. The study's objective was to assess the glycemic and lipidemic profiles of patients with bipolar disorder reported at a tertiary care hospital in the Khyber Pakhtunkhwa-Pakistan.  Methodology: This was a cross-sectional study conducted in a private hospital in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa from January 2020 to June 2021. A total of 400 patients were enrolled in the study, and the sample size was calculated using a WHO calculator. Blood tests were performed for high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), total cholesterol (TC), fasting glucose, and triglycerides (TG).  Results: Of the total 400 enrolled patients, 84.0% (n=336) had a diagnosis of bipolar disorder while rest of the 16.0% (n=64) had Schizophrenia. No statistical difference was found in the metabolic parameters following the primary diagnosis. As for pharmacological parameters, patients with bipolar disorders were receiving more psychiatric medicines than schizophrenic patients with a p-value < 0.001.  Conclusion: It is concluded that the levels of HDL, LDL, and total cholesterol were significantly elevated in the manic condition compared to the Euthymic phase and by improving their glycemic and lipidemic profiles, cognitive dysfunction might be rectified, and functioning can be improved. </Text> </OtherText> <PublicationDate>20220228</PublicationDate> <RelatedWork> <RelationCode>81</RelationCode> <WorkIdentifier> <WorkIDType>01</WorkIDType> <IDValue>1-83</IDValue> </WorkIdentifier> </RelatedWork> <RelatedProduct> <RelationCode>89</RelationCode> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>01</ProductIDType> <IDValue>1-83-767-g807</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> </RelatedProduct> </ContentItem> </DOISerialArticleWork> <DOISerialArticleWork> <NotificationType>06</NotificationType> <DOI>10.29052/IJEHSR.v10.i1.2022.78-85</DOI> <DOIWebsiteLink>https://aeirc-edu.com/ojs14/index.php/IJEHSR/article/view/745</DOIWebsiteLink> <DOIStructuralType>Abstraction</DOIStructuralType> <RegistrantName>Advance Educational Institute and Research Center</RegistrantName> <RegistrationAuthority>mEDRA</RegistrationAuthority> <WorkIdentifier> <WorkIDType>01</WorkIDType> <IDValue>1-83-745</IDValue> </WorkIdentifier> <SerialPublication> <SerialWork> <Title textformat="00" language="eng"> <TitleType>01</TitleType> <TitleText>International Journal of Endorsing Health Science Research (IJEHSR)</TitleText> </Title> <Publisher> <PublishingRole>01</PublishingRole> <PublisherName>Advance Educational Institute and Research Center</PublisherName> </Publisher> <CountryOfPublication>PK</CountryOfPublication> </SerialWork> <SerialVersion> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>01</ProductIDType> <IDValue>1</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>07</ProductIDType> <IDValue>23103841</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> <ProductForm>JD</ProductForm> <EpubFormat>01</EpubFormat> <EpubFormatDescription>Open Journal Systems (OJS)</EpubFormatDescription> </SerialVersion> <SerialVersion> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>07</ProductIDType> <IDValue>23073748</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> <ProductForm>JB</ProductForm> </SerialVersion> </SerialPublication> <JournalIssue> <JournalVolumeNumber>10</JournalVolumeNumber> <JournalIssueNumber>1</JournalIssueNumber> <JournalIssueDesignation>Vol 10 No 1 (2022): International Journal of Endorsing Health Science Research</JournalIssueDesignation> <JournalIssueDate> <DateFormat>06</DateFormat> <Date>2022</Date> </JournalIssueDate> </JournalIssue> <ContentItem> <SequenceNumber>11</SequenceNumber> <TextItem> <PageRun> <FirstPageNumber>78</FirstPageNumber> <LastPageNumber>85</LastPageNumber> </PageRun> </TextItem> <Title textformat="00" language="eng"> <TitleType>01</TitleType> <TitleText>Investigating the presence of fetal trisomy 13, 18, and 21 in Pakistani Patients and its' Computational Analysis</TitleText> </Title> <Contributor> <SequenceNumber>1</SequenceNumber> <ContributorRole>A01</ContributorRole> <PersonName>Amina Safdar</PersonName> <PersonNameInverted>Safdar, Amina</PersonNameInverted> <ProfessionalAffiliation> <Affiliation>The COMSATS University, Islamabad-Pakistan.</Affiliation> </ProfessionalAffiliation> </Contributor> <Contributor> <SequenceNumber>2</SequenceNumber> <ContributorRole>A01</ContributorRole> <PersonName>Dua Zhaira</PersonName> <PersonNameInverted>Zhaira, Dua</PersonNameInverted> <ProfessionalAffiliation> <Affiliation>The COMSATS University, Islamabad-Pakistan.</Affiliation> </ProfessionalAffiliation> </Contributor> <Contributor> <SequenceNumber>3</SequenceNumber> <ContributorRole>A01</ContributorRole> <PersonName>Sumaira Kousar</PersonName> <PersonNameInverted>Kousar, Sumaira</PersonNameInverted> <ProfessionalAffiliation> <Affiliation>1.The COMSATS University, Islamabad-Pakistan 2.University Institute of Medical Lab Technology, University Of Lahore, Lahore-Pakistan.</Affiliation> </ProfessionalAffiliation> </Contributor> <Contributor> <SequenceNumber>4</SequenceNumber> <ContributorRole>A01</ContributorRole> <PersonName>Shehla Javaid</PersonName> <PersonNameInverted>Javaid, Shehla</PersonNameInverted> <ProfessionalAffiliation> <Affiliation>University Institute of Medical Lab Technology, University Of Lahore, Lahore-Pakistan.</Affiliation> </ProfessionalAffiliation> </Contributor> <Language> <LanguageRole>01</LanguageRole> <LanguageCode>eng</LanguageCode> </Language> <Subject> <SubjectSchemeIdentifier>23</SubjectSchemeIdentifier> <SubjectHeadingText>Chorionic Villus Sampling, Trisomies, Polyacrylamide Gel Electrophoresis.</SubjectHeadingText> </Subject> <OtherText> <TextTypeCode>01</TextTypeCode> <Text textformat="00" language="eng"> Background: Chromosomal aneuploidy due to meiotic non-disjunction is among the most significant and common causes of miscarriages in humans. The present study was conducted to investigate the presence of fetal trisomy 13, 18, and 21 in Pakistani patients and analysis of its risk factors.  Methodology: Fetuses were diagnosed for trisomies between 10 and 16 weeks of gestational age via Chorionic Villus Sampling. Fetal DNA was extracted through the Chelex method. The presence of trisomies 13, 18, and 21 was screened through amplification of Short Tandem Repeats (STR) on chromosomes 13, 18, and 21, respectively. The STR alleles were resolved through polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (PAGE) and silver staining.  Results: It was found that out of 367 patients tested between 2012 and 2018, 3 (0.82%) had trisomy 13, 3 (0.82%) had trisomy 18, and 34 (9.3%) had trisomy 21. Down syndrome (Trisomy 21) was the most common trisomy in Pakistani patients as compared to 13 and 18 trisomies. Via R analysis, it is assessed that cousin marriages and mother's age contribute positively towards trisomy; nevertheless, the presence of these factors does not confirm the presence of trisomy for any chromosome.  Conclusion: It was observed that the age of the mother, delayed conception, and family marriages are the contributory factors for this problem. However, the prevalence of Trisomy 21 (Down syndrome) in the Pakistani Population is far greater as compared to Trisomy 13 (Patau syndrome) and Trisomy 18 (Edward syndrome). </Text> </OtherText> <PublicationDate>20220228</PublicationDate> <RelatedWork> <RelationCode>81</RelationCode> <WorkIdentifier> <WorkIDType>01</WorkIDType> <IDValue>1-83</IDValue> </WorkIdentifier> </RelatedWork> <RelatedProduct> <RelationCode>89</RelationCode> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>01</ProductIDType> <IDValue>1-83-745-g804</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> </RelatedProduct> </ContentItem> </DOISerialArticleWork> <DOISerialArticleWork> <NotificationType>06</NotificationType> <DOI>10.29052/IJEHSR.v10.i1.2022.01-05</DOI> <DOIWebsiteLink>https://aeirc-edu.com/ojs14/index.php/IJEHSR/article/view/654</DOIWebsiteLink> <DOIStructuralType>Abstraction</DOIStructuralType> <RegistrantName>Advance Educational Institute and Research Center</RegistrantName> <RegistrationAuthority>mEDRA</RegistrationAuthority> <WorkIdentifier> <WorkIDType>01</WorkIDType> <IDValue>1-83-654</IDValue> </WorkIdentifier> <SerialPublication> <SerialWork> <Title textformat="00" language="eng"> <TitleType>01</TitleType> <TitleText>International Journal of Endorsing Health Science Research (IJEHSR)</TitleText> </Title> <Publisher> <PublishingRole>01</PublishingRole> <PublisherName>Advance Educational Institute and Research Center</PublisherName> </Publisher> <CountryOfPublication>PK</CountryOfPublication> </SerialWork> <SerialVersion> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>01</ProductIDType> <IDValue>1</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>07</ProductIDType> <IDValue>23103841</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> <ProductForm>JD</ProductForm> <EpubFormat>01</EpubFormat> <EpubFormatDescription>Open Journal Systems (OJS)</EpubFormatDescription> </SerialVersion> <SerialVersion> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>07</ProductIDType> <IDValue>23073748</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> <ProductForm>JB</ProductForm> </SerialVersion> </SerialPublication> <JournalIssue> <JournalVolumeNumber>10</JournalVolumeNumber> <JournalIssueNumber>1</JournalIssueNumber> <JournalIssueDesignation>Vol 10 No 1 (2022): International Journal of Endorsing Health Science Research</JournalIssueDesignation> <JournalIssueDate> <DateFormat>06</DateFormat> <Date>2022</Date> </JournalIssueDate> </JournalIssue> <ContentItem> <SequenceNumber>1</SequenceNumber> <TextItem> <PageRun> <FirstPageNumber>01</FirstPageNumber> <LastPageNumber>05</LastPageNumber> </PageRun> </TextItem> <Title textformat="00" language="eng"> <TitleType>01</TitleType> <TitleText>An early trial of catheter removal after transurethral resection of the prostate at Sindh Institute of Urology and Transplant.</TitleText> </Title> <Contributor> <SequenceNumber>1</SequenceNumber> <ContributorRole>A01</ContributorRole> <PersonName>Syed Wajid Ali</PersonName> <PersonNameInverted>Wajid Ali, Syed</PersonNameInverted> <ProfessionalAffiliation> <Affiliation>Muhammad Medical College, MirpurKhas-Pakistan</Affiliation> </ProfessionalAffiliation> </Contributor> <Contributor> <SequenceNumber>2</SequenceNumber> <ContributorRole>A01</ContributorRole> <PersonName>Asad Ullah Jan Hafiz</PersonName> <PersonNameInverted>Hafiz, Asad Ullah Jan</PersonNameInverted> <ProfessionalAffiliation> <Affiliation>Urologist at DHQ Teaching Hospital, Charsadda-Pakistan</Affiliation> </ProfessionalAffiliation> </Contributor> <Contributor> <SequenceNumber>3</SequenceNumber> <ContributorRole>A01</ContributorRole> <PersonName>Ashhad Ullah Khalil Muhammad</PersonName> <PersonNameInverted>Muhammad, Ashhad Ullah Khalil</PersonNameInverted> <ProfessionalAffiliation> <Affiliation>Institute of Kidney disease, Peshawar-Pakistan</Affiliation> </ProfessionalAffiliation> </Contributor> <Contributor> <SequenceNumber>4</SequenceNumber> <ContributorRole>A01</ContributorRole> <PersonName>Sana Khalid</PersonName> <PersonNameInverted>Khalid, Sana</PersonNameInverted> <ProfessionalAffiliation> <Affiliation>Bahria University Medical and Dental College, Karachi-Pakistan</Affiliation> </ProfessionalAffiliation> </Contributor> <Language> <LanguageRole>01</LanguageRole> <LanguageCode>eng</LanguageCode> </Language> <Subject> <SubjectSchemeIdentifier>23</SubjectSchemeIdentifier> <SubjectHeadingText>Benign Prostatic Hypertrophy, Transurethral Catheterization, Early Removal of the Catheter</SubjectHeadingText> </Subject> <OtherText> <TextTypeCode>01</TextTypeCode> <Text textformat="00" language="eng"> Background: Transurethral resection of the prostate gland (TURP) is considered a gold standard in Benign Prostatic Hypertrophy. This study aimed to determine the effectiveness of early catheter removals at 48 hours after TURP in patients with mild to moderate enlargement of the prostate.  Methodology: A single interventional study was conducted on 79 male subjects with mild to moderate prostate enlargement, and moderate to severe lower urinary tract symptoms. The outcome was measured six hours after trial without a catheter.  Results: The mean age of participants was 64.9 ± 7.8 years, and the mean size of the prostate was 54.8 ± 5.9 gm.

<TextTypeCode>01</TextTypeCode> <Text textformat="00" language="eng"> Background: Leading urology guidelines recommend intravesical chemotherapy and immunotherapy for non-muscle invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC) to reduce the risk of recurrence and progression. This study aims to evaluate the self-reported practices regarding intravesical therapy use for patients with non-muscle-invasive bladder cancer among urologists in Karachi.  Methodology: In this cross-sectional study, a proforma-based survey was conducted between January and March 2018, in which printed questionnaires regarding adjuvant treatment options for NMIBC were administered and collected by primary investigators among urologists in leading institutions of Karachi.  Results: Overall, 80% of respondents reported routine administration of single instillation of intravesical chemotherapy (SICA) after transurethral resection of bladder tumor (TURBT), and almost one-third of them (37.3%) give SICA within 6 hours inward. A quarter of respondents practice induction therapy routinely in low-risk BC using Mitomycin, whereas 76.5% in high-risk cases use Bacillus Calmette Geurin (BCG) as immunotherapy. Regarding the time duration of intravesical therapy installation, most of the urologists reported for 45 mins (49%) followed by 30 mins (29.4%), 2 hrs (17.6%), and 3 hrs (3.9%). Only 39% reported routinely using maintenance therapy with BCG for high-risk BC. As for BCG failure, 76.5% of participants reported radical cystectomy.  Conclusion: Our survey results provide evidence of variation in practices among urologists and poor guideline adherence with the risk of under-treatment of patients with NMIBC. This requires joint efforts of all those involved in the treatment of non-muscle invasive bladder cancer to improve the quality of care. </Text> </OtherText> <PublicationDate>20220226</PublicationDate> <RelatedWork> <RelationCode>81</RelationCode> <WorkIdentifier> <WorkIDType>01</WorkIDType> <IDValue>1-83</IDValue> </WorkIdentifier> </RelatedWork> <RelatedProduct> <RelationCode>89</RelationCode> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>01</ProductIDType> <IDValue>1-83-751-g803</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> </RelatedProduct> </ContentItem> </DOISerialArticleWork> <DOISerialArticleWork> <NotificationType>06</NotificationType> <DOI>10.29052/IJEHSR.v10.i1.2022.55-63</DOI> <DOIWebsiteLink>https://aeirc-edu.com/ojs14/index.php/IJEHSR/article/view/774</DOIWebsiteLink> <DOIStructuralType>Abstraction</DOIStructuralType> <RegistrantName>Advance Educational Institute and Research Center</RegistrantName> <RegistrationAuthority>mEDRA</RegistrationAuthority> <WorkIdentifier> <WorkIDType>01</WorkIDType> <IDValue>1-83-774</IDValue> </WorkIdentifier> <SerialPublication> <SerialWork> <Title textformat="00" language="eng"> <TitleType>01</TitleType> <TitleText>International Journal of Endorsing Health Science Research (IJEHSR)</TitleText> </Title> <Publisher> <PublishingRole>01</PublishingRole> <PublisherName>Advance Educational Institute and Research Center</PublisherName> </Publisher> <CountryOfPublication>PK</CountryOfPublication> </SerialWork> <SerialVersion> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>01</ProductIDType> <IDValue>1</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>07</ProductIDType> <IDValue>23103841</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> <ProductForm>JD</ProductForm> <EpubFormat>01</EpubFormat> <EpubFormatDescription>Open Journal Systems (OJS)</EpubFormatDescription> </SerialVersion> <SerialVersion> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>07</ProductIDType> <IDValue>23073748</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> <ProductForm>JB</ProductForm> </SerialVersion> </SerialPublication> <JournalIssue> <JournalVolumeNumber>10</JournalVolumeNumber> <JournalIssueNumber>1</JournalIssueNumber> <JournalIssueDesignation>Vol 10 No 1 (2022): International Journal of Endorsing Health Science Research</JournalIssueDesignation> <JournalIssueDate> <DateFormat>06</DateFormat> <Date>2022</Date> </JournalIssueDate> </JournalIssue> <ContentItem> <SequenceNumber>8</SequenceNumber> <TextItem> <PageRun> <FirstPageNumber>55</FirstPageNumber> <LastPageNumber>63</LastPageNumber> </PageRun> </TextItem> <Title textformat="00" language="eng"> <TitleType>01</TitleType> <TitleText>Mothers’ knowledge about infant and young child feeding practices and their health impacts.</TitleText> </Title> <Contributor> <SequenceNumber>1</SequenceNumber> <ContributorRole>A01</ContributorRole> <PersonName>Amaila Fazal</PersonName> <PersonNameInverted>Fazal, Amaila</PersonNameInverted> <ProfessionalAffiliation> <Affiliation>Dadabhoy Institute of Higher Education, Karachi-Pakistan.</Affiliation> </ProfessionalAffiliation> </Contributor> <Contributor> <SequenceNumber>2</SequenceNumber> <ContributorRole>A01</ContributorRole> <PersonName>Fahad Lasi</PersonName> <PersonNameInverted>Lasi, Fahad</PersonNameInverted> <ProfessionalAffiliation> <Affiliation>Dadabhoy Institute of Higher Education, Karachi-Pakistan.</Affiliation> </ProfessionalAffiliation> </Contributor> <Contributor> <SequenceNumber>3</SequenceNumber> <ContributorRole>A01</ContributorRole> <PersonName>Saad Ahmed Khan</PersonName> <PersonNameInverted>Ahmed Khan, Saad</PersonNameInverted> <ProfessionalAffiliation> <Affiliation>Dadabhoy Institute of Higher Education, Karachi-Pakistan.</Affiliation> </ProfessionalAffiliation> </Contributor> <Language> <LanguageRole>01</LanguageRole> <LanguageCode>eng</LanguageCode> </Language> <Subject> <SubjectSchemeIdentifier>23</SubjectSchemeIdentifier> <SubjectHeadingText>Child Feeding, Breast Feeding, Infant Formula Milk, Knowledge.</SubjectHeadingText> </Subject> <OtherText> <TextTypeCode>01</TextTypeCode> <Text textformat="00" language="eng"> Background: Breastfeeding has always been proven beneficial for infant and mother’s health in every era. Thus, the present study was conducted to assess mothers' infant and young child feeding practices in Karachi, Pakistan, and their knowledge about the health impacts on their children.  Methodology: A cross-sectional survey-based study including 1200 mother-child pairs was conducted from March to November 2020. Mothers' knowledge toward indicators for assessing infant and young child feeding practices (IYCF) questionnaire was used and scored using a four-point Likert scale.  Results: Out of the total, most of the females were un-educated (97%), and the majority of them belonged to the middle class (49%). It was also found that 96% of the mother had breastfed their child, and more interestingly, 35% breastfed their child for 2 years. Almost 82% of mothers preferred breastfeeding and considered it necessary for the child. It was found that females had excellent knowledge about the young child feeding practices and their health impacts (66%). Furthermore, mother age, marital status, socioeconomic status (SES), number of children, occupation, personal and family disease history were significantly associated with the knowledge level of the mothers (p<0.05).  Conclusion: It was found that females had excellent knowledge about the young child feeding practices and their health impacts. Future research is recommended to compare mothers' knowledge regarding infant and young child feeding practices in different geographical areas and districts of Karachi. </Text> </OtherText> <PublicationDate>20220223</PublicationDate> <RelatedWork> <RelationCode>81</RelationCode> <WorkIdentifier> <WorkIDType>01</WorkIDType> <IDValue>1-83</IDValue> </WorkIdentifier> </RelatedWork> <RelatedProduct> <RelationCode>89</RelationCode> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>01</ProductIDType> <IDValue>1-83-774-g801</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> </RelatedProduct> </ContentItem> </DOISerialArticleWork> <DOISerialArticleWork> <NotificationType>06</NotificationType> <DOI>10.29052/IJEHSR.v10.i1.2022.64-71</DOI> <DOIWebsiteLink>https://aeirc-edu.com/ojs14/index.php/IJEHSR/article/view/714</DOIWebsiteLink> <DOIStructuralType>Abstraction</DOIStructuralType> <RegistrantName>Advance Educational Institute and Research Center</RegistrantName> <RegistrationAuthority>mEDRA</RegistrationAuthority> <WorkIdentifier> <WorkIDType>01</WorkIDType> <IDValue>1-83-714</IDValue> </WorkIdentifier> <SerialPublication> <SerialWork> <Title textformat="00" language="eng"> <TitleType>01</TitleType> <TitleText>International Journal of Endorsing Health Science Research (IJEHSR)</TitleText> </Title> <Publisher> <PublishingRole>01</PublishingRole> <PublisherName>Advance Educational Institute and Research Center</PublisherName> </Publisher> <CountryOfPublication>PK</CountryOfPublication> </SerialWork> <SerialVersion> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>01</ProductIDType> <IDValue>1</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>07</ProductIDType> <IDValue>23103841</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> <ProductForm>JD</ProductForm> <EpubFormat>01</EpubFormat> <EpubFormatDescription>Open Journal Systems (OJS)</EpubFormatDescription> </SerialVersion> <SerialVersion> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>07</ProductIDType> <IDValue>23073748</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> <ProductForm>JB</ProductForm> </SerialVersion> </SerialPublication> <JournalIssue> <JournalVolumeNumber>10</JournalVolumeNumber> <JournalIssueNumber>1</JournalIssueNumber> <JournalIssueDesignation>Vol 10 No 1 (2022): International Journal of Endorsing Health Science Research</JournalIssueDesignation> <JournalIssueDate> <DateFormat>06</DateFormat> <Date>2022</Date> </JournalIssueDate> </JournalIssue> <ContentItem> <SequenceNumber>9</SequenceNumber> <TextItem> <PageRun> <FirstPageNumber>64</FirstPageNumber> <LastPageNumber>71</LastPageNumber> </PageRun> </TextItem> <Title textformat="00" language="eng"> <TitleType>01</TitleType> <TitleText>Antihyperlipidemic, hypoglycaemic and antioxidative potential of Juglans Regia (walnuts) in an experimental animal model of dietary hyperlipidemia.</TitleText> </Title> <Contributor> <SequenceNumber>1</SequenceNumber> <ContributorRole>A01</ContributorRole> <PersonName>Iqra Sangi</PersonName> <PersonNameInverted>Sangi, Iqra</PersonNameInverted> <ProfessionalAffiliation> <Affiliation>Pathophysiology Research Unit, Department of Physiology, University of Karachi, Karachi-Pakistan.</Affiliation> </ProfessionalAffiliation> </Contributor> <Contributor> <SequenceNumber>2</SequenceNumber> <ContributorRole>A01</ContributorRole> <PersonName>Mufzala Shamim</PersonName> <PersonNameInverted>Shamim, Mufzala</PersonNameInverted> <ProfessionalAffiliation> <Affiliation>Pathophysiology Research Unit, Department of Physiology, University of Karachi, Karachi-Pakistan.</Affiliation> </ProfessionalAffiliation> </Contributor> <Contributor> <SequenceNumber>3</SequenceNumber> <ContributorRole>A01</ContributorRole> <PersonName>Nazish Iqbal Khan</PersonName> <PersonNameInverted>Khan, Nazish Iqbal</PersonNameInverted> <ProfessionalAffiliation> <Affiliation>Pathophysiology Research Unit, Department of Physiology, University of Karachi, Karachi-Pakistan.</Affiliation> </ProfessionalAffiliation> </Contributor> <Language> <LanguageRole>01</LanguageRole> <LanguageCode>eng</LanguageCode> </Language> <Subject> <SubjectSchemeIdentifier>23</SubjectSchemeIdentifier> <SubjectHeadingText>Juglans Regia, Walnut, Hyperlipidemia, Hyperglycemia, Cardioprotective Antioxidant Potential.</SubjectHeadingText> </Subject> <OtherText> <TextTypeCode>01</TextTypeCode> <Text textformat="00" language="eng"> Background: Cardiovascular diseases (CVD) are recognized as the world's primary cause of fatality, particularly in the developing countries. Stroke and ischemic heart disease have reportedly been the principal manifestations of vascular disease mainly because of the gradual increase in the incidence of the risk factors. In this aspect, the present study is planned to investigate the cardio-protective potential of Juglans regia (JR) (walnuts) consumption in controlling dyslipidemia. JR has notable therapeutic effects and, it has been used since ancient times for its anti-inflammatory, cardio-protective, and anti-bacterial properties.  Methodology: In this study, 32 age-matched females, Wistar albino rats of 5-6 weeks weighing 200 g, were selected and equally divided into four experimental groups. Group I was used as control, Group II was positively induced hyperlipidemia through a high-fat diet; Group III animals were fed normal rat chow along with 153 mg JR powder, and Group IV animals have also inducted hyperlipidemia through a high-fat diet incorporated with 153 mg JR powder/Kg for 15 days. Bodyweight changes along with daily diet consumption were measured on alternate days.  Results: In comparison to the control group, animals fed with a high-fat diet (Group II) showed a non-significant increase in plasma lipid profile, total cholesterol (TC), triglycerides (TG), and plasma high-density lipoprotein (HDL) levels. Group III and IV animals, after walnut powder supplementation, showed a significant decrease in lipid profile change in very Low-Density Lipoprotein levels (VLDL) of 10.3 ± 0.60 mg/dl and 12.27 ± 0.94 mg/dl together with nephron-protective & reno-protective enzymatic alterations. Histological analysis revealed signs of inflammation in high fat treated groups while well-maintained cardiac tissues within walnut treated groups, respectively.  Conclusion: Daily consumption of Juglans Regia (walnut) in the dosage mentioned earlier is beneficial in protectively modulating dyslipidemia, hyperglycemic, and oxidative tissue potential of high-fat diet consumption in an experimental animal model. </Text> </OtherText> <PublicationDate>20220223</PublicationDate> <RelatedWork> <RelationCode>81</RelationCode> <WorkIdentifier> <WorkIDType>01</WorkIDType>

Protein-1 (MCP-1) is an inflammatory bio-peptide which release into body circulation in specific response to retinal inflammation. The objective of the current study was to find the levels of monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 in diabetic patients with and without diabetic retinopathy and to compare the functional role of MCP-1 as a better diagnostic biomarker in the early phase of diabetic retinopathy with conventional methods.  Methodology: This case-control study was conducted at the Physiology Department of Basic Medical Science Institute (BMSI), Jinnah Postgraduate Medical Center (JPMC)-Karachi, from April 2019 to October 2020. Total 100 participants between 40-65 years of age were separated into four groups: Group A (n=25) diabetic-patients with diabetes duration 5-7 years with no retinopathy; Group B (n=25) diabetic patient’s diabetes duration 8-10 years with mild retinopathy, Group C (n=25) diabetic patient’s diabetes duration 10-15 years with moderate retinopathy while Group D (n=25) healthy normal individuals. All study participants were gone through a detailed history and blood sugar levels, visual acuity, slit-lamp examination, and serum MCP-1 were estimated.  Results: The present study reported significantly elevated levels of MCP-1 among group-A (without retinopathy), group B (mild diabetic retinopathy), and Group- C (moderate retinopathy), while Group-D (healthy controls) had the least level of MCP-1 (p-value=0.001) that indicate the early phase of retinal inflammation. Current study has shown strong association between MCP-1 with duration of disease (r=0.885; p < 0.01), and HbA1c (r =0.71; p <0.01) in all study participants. While statistically significant and positive association and correlation were reported between MCP-1 with blood sugar parameters (fasting and random) (r = 0.876; p< 0.01) in all study participants.  Conclusion: Elevated levels of MCP-1 with the progression of early retinal inflammation diabetic retinopathy had been reported in the current study. These findings conceivably propose that MCP-1 could be an early diagnostic marker for an additional diagnostic tool for early detection of diabetic retinopathy compared with all conventional clinical findings. </Text> </OtherText> <PublicationDate>20220222</PublicationDate> <RelatedWork> <RelationCode>81</RelationCode> <WorkIdentifier> <WorkIDType>01</WorkIDType> <IDValue>1-83</IDValue>

<TextTypeCode>01</TextTypeCode> <Text textformat="00" language="eng"> Background: Type I Diabetes Mellitus (TIDM) is a disease known to occur in any age group, but most of the people affected are diagnosed in their mid-teenage. It is marked by hyperglycemia due to autoimmune destruction of insulin-producing pancreatic beta cells. Herbal treatment of DM has attracted attention in the last few decades because of its ability to improve diabetic complications such as nephrotic deterioration and oxidative stress. The present research is sought to determine the anti-diabetic potential of Carica Papaya leaf extract in Alloxan-induced diabetic rats.  Methodology: For this study, eighteen healthy male Wistar rats weighing 150-200 g were made into three groups (n=6), two of which (Group II and Group III) were induced DM through Alloxan, whereas control (Group I) remained untreated. Group III diabetic rats were treated with 250 mg/kg body weight of papaya leaf extract after confirming hyperglycemia. Animals were sacrificed on the 22nd day for biochemical analysis.  Results: This study showed that papaya leaf extract administration caused a significant reduction in the levels of plasma glucose, AST, ALP, ALT, serum urea, blood urea nitrogen (BUN), and creatinine in the papaya-treated group as compared to the Alloxan-treated group. It also increased plasma insulin levels compared to the diabetic-control (Alloxan-treated) group. Activity and concentration of major antioxidant enzymes such as CAT, SOD, and GSH in treated animals were also significantly increased compared to the diabetic (Alloxan-treated) group.  Conclusion: Based on the findings, it is concluded that the C. Papaya leaf extract exhibits antidiabetic and antioxidative potential against alloxan-induced TIDM. </Text> </OtherText> <PublicationDate>20220217</PublicationDate> <RelatedWork> <RelationCode>81</RelationCode> <WorkIdentifier> <WorkIDType>01</WorkIDType> <IDValue>1-83</IDValue> </WorkIdentifier> </RelatedWork> <RelatedProduct> <RelationCode>89</RelationCode> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>01</ProductIDType> <IDValue>1-83-611-g799</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> </RelatedProduct> </ContentItem> </DOISerialArticleWork> <DOISerialArticleWork> <NotificationType>06</NotificationType> <DOI>10.29052/IJEHSR.v10.i1.2022.110-116</DOI> <DOIWebsiteLink>https://aeirc-edu.com/ojs14/index.php/IJEHSR/article/view/744</DOIWebsiteLink> <DOIStructuralType>Abstraction</DOIStructuralType> <RegistrantName>Advance Educational Institute and Research Center</RegistrantName> <RegistrationAuthority>mEDRA</RegistrationAuthority> <WorkIdentifier> <WorkIDType>01</WorkIDType> <IDValue>1-83-744</IDValue> </WorkIdentifier> <SerialPublication> <SerialWork> <Title textformat="00" language="eng"> <TitleType>01</TitleType> <TitleText>International Journal of Endorsing Health Science Research (IJEHSR)</TitleText> </Title> <Publisher> <PublishingRole>01</PublishingRole> <PublisherName>Advance Educational Institute and Research Center</PublisherName> </Publisher> <CountryOfPublication>PK</CountryOfPublication> </SerialWork> <SerialVersion> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>01</ProductIDType> <IDValue>1</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>07</ProductIDType> <IDValue>23103841</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> <ProductForm>JD</ProductForm> <EpubFormat>01</EpubFormat> <EpubFormatDescription>Open Journal Systems (OJS)</EpubFormatDescription> </SerialVersion> <SerialVersion> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>07</ProductIDType> <IDValue>23073748</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> <ProductForm>JB</ProductForm> </SerialVersion> </SerialPublication> <JournalIssue> <JournalVolumeNumber>10</JournalVolumeNumber> <JournalIssueNumber>1</JournalIssueNumber> <JournalIssueDesignation>Vol 10 No 1 (2022): International Journal of Endorsing Health Science Research</JournalIssueDesignation> <JournalIssueDate> <DateFormat>06</DateFormat> <Date>2022</Date> </JournalIssueDate> </JournalIssue> <ContentItem> <SequenceNumber>15</SequenceNumber> <TextItem> <PageRun> <FirstPageNumber>110</FirstPageNumber> <LastPageNumber>116</LastPageNumber> </PageRun> </TextItem> <Title textformat="00" language="eng"> <TitleType>01</TitleType> <TitleText>Prevalence of dyslipidemias in human immunodeficiency virus-infected patients with and without antiretroviral therapy.</TitleText> </Title> <Contributor> <SequenceNumber>1</SequenceNumber> <ContributorRole>A01</ContributorRole> <PersonName>Rabail Chaudhary</PersonName> <PersonNameInverted>Chaudhary, Rabail</PersonNameInverted> <ProfessionalAffiliation> <Affiliation>Department of Medicine, Pakistan Institute of Medical Sciences, Islamabad.</Affiliation> </ProfessionalAffiliation> </Contributor> <Contributor> <SequenceNumber>2</SequenceNumber> <ContributorRole>A01</ContributorRole> <PersonName>Ahmed Farhan</PersonName> <PersonNameInverted>Farhan, Ahmed</PersonNameInverted> <ProfessionalAffiliation> <Affiliation>Department of Medicine, Pakistan Institute of Medical Sciences, Islamabad.</Affiliation> </ProfessionalAffiliation> </Contributor> <Contributor> <SequenceNumber>3</SequenceNumber> <ContributorRole>A01</ContributorRole> <PersonName>Muhammad Zeeshan</PersonName> <PersonNameInverted>Zeeshan, Muhammad</PersonNameInverted> <ProfessionalAffiliation> <Affiliation>Internal Medicine, Pakistan Institute of Medical Sciences, Islamabad.</Affiliation> </ProfessionalAffiliation> <BiographicalNote>  </BiographicalNote> </Contributor> <Contributor> <SequenceNumber>4</SequenceNumber> <ContributorRole>A01</ContributorRole> <PersonName>Mohammad Awais Tahir</PersonName> <PersonNameInverted>Tahir, Mohammad Awais</PersonNameInverted> <ProfessionalAffiliation> <Affiliation>Internal Medicine, Pakistan Institute of Medical Sciences, Islamabad.</Affiliation> </ProfessionalAffiliation> </Contributor> <Contributor> <SequenceNumber>5</SequenceNumber> <ContributorRole>A01</ContributorRole> <PersonName>Saira Kanwal</PersonName> <PersonNameInverted>Kanwal, Saira</PersonNameInverted> <ProfessionalAffiliation> <Affiliation>Department of Medicine, Pakistan Institute of Medical Sciences, Islamabad.</Affiliation> </ProfessionalAffiliation> </Contributor> <Language> <LanguageRole>01</LanguageRole> <LanguageCode>eng</LanguageCode> </Language> <Subject> <SubjectSchemeIdentifier>23</SubjectSchemeIdentifier> <SubjectHeadingText>Human Immunodeficiency Virus, Dyslipidemia, Antiretroviral Therapy, Cholesterol.</SubjectHeadingText> </Subject> <OtherText> <TextTypeCode>01</TextTypeCode> <Text textformat="00" language="eng"> Background: Disturbances in the lipid profile and dyslipidemia are prevalent among human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) patients. Furthermore, long-term use of antiretroviral therapy (ART) exacerbates the condition. Data on lipid profile abnormalities among patients receiving highly active antiretroviral treatment in Pakistan are very limited. The present study aims to assess the frequency of dyslipidemia and lipid concentrations among HIV-infected patients receiving active art in comparison to those not receiving any treatment.  Methodology: A cross-sectional study was carried out at the HIV clinic of Pakistan Institute of Medical Sciences, Islamabad, from January to July 2018. A total of 100 HIV-infected patients aged 13 to 60 years who gave consent and fulfilled the inclusion criteria were enrolled in the study via non-probability consecutive sampling. All patients who had positive HIV antibodies via the Elisa process were considered positive. Samples were examined for fasting lipids by using standard laboratory procedures.  Results: The patients' mean age was 32.7 ± 13.4 ranging between 13-60 years. The total patient population consisted of 71% males and 29% females with a mean BMI of 21.1 ± 3.4 kg/m2. Out of 100, 38% of the study patients had dyslipidemia. The observed prevalence rate of hypertriglyceridemia, hypercholesterolemia, low HDL-C, and high LDL-C were 21%, 30%, 20%, and 16%, respectively. None of the factors were found in significant association with abnormal lipid parameters except the older patients (41-60 years) were at higher risk of hypercholesterolemia [aOR 0.15 (95% CI 0.02-0.92); p=0.04] than the counterpart.  Conclusion: The study has demonstrated that a higher percentage of HIV-infected patients have concomitant dyslipidemia with or without art treatment. </Text> </OtherText> <PublicationDate>20220201</PublicationDate> <RelatedWork> <RelationCode>81</RelationCode> <WorkIdentifier> <WorkIDType>01</WorkIDType> <IDValue>1-83</IDValue> </WorkIdentifier> </RelatedWork> <RelatedProduct> <RelationCode>89</RelationCode> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>01</ProductIDType> <IDValue>1-83-744-g808</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> </RelatedProduct> </ContentItem> </DOISerialArticleWork> <DOISerialArticleWork> <NotificationType>06</NotificationType> <DOI>10.29052/IJEHSR.v10.i1.2022.36-41</DOI> <DOIWebsiteLink>https://aeirc-edu.com/ojs14/index.php/IJEHSR/article/view/799</DOIWebsiteLink> <DOIStructuralType>Abstraction</DOIStructuralType> <RegistrantName>Advance Educational Institute and Research Center</RegistrantName> <RegistrationAuthority>mEDRA</RegistrationAuthority> <WorkIdentifier> <WorkIDType>01</WorkIDType> <IDValue>1-83-799</IDValue> </WorkIdentifier> <SerialPublication> <SerialWork> <Title textformat="00" language="eng"> <TitleType>01</TitleType> <TitleText>International Journal of Endorsing Health Science Research (IJEHSR)</TitleText> </Title> <Publisher> <PublishingRole>01</PublishingRole> <PublisherName>Advance Educational Institute and Research Center</PublisherName> </Publisher> <CountryOfPublication>PK</CountryOfPublication> </SerialWork> <SerialVersion> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>01</ProductIDType> <IDValue>1</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>07</ProductIDType> <IDValue>23103841</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> <ProductForm>JD</ProductForm> <EpubFormat>01</EpubFormat> <EpubFormatDescription>Open Journal Systems (OJS)</EpubFormatDescription> </SerialVersion> <SerialVersion> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>07</ProductIDType> <IDValue>23073748</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> <ProductForm>JB</ProductForm> </SerialVersion> </SerialPublication> <JournalIssue> <JournalVolumeNumber>10</JournalVolumeNumber> <JournalIssueNumber>1</JournalIssueNumber> <JournalIssueDesignation>Vol 10 No 1 (2022): International Journal of Endorsing Health Science Research</JournalIssueDesignation> <JournalIssueDate> <DateFormat>06</DateFormat> <Date>2022</Date> </JournalIssueDate> </JournalIssue> <ContentItem> <SequenceNumber>5</SequenceNumber> <TextItem> <PageRun> <FirstPageNumber>36</FirstPageNumber> <LastPageNumber>41</LastPageNumber> </PageRun> </TextItem> <Title textformat="00" language="eng"> <TitleType>01</TitleType> <TitleText>Oxidative stress level among females with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus with & without Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome.</TitleText> </Title> <Contributor> <SequenceNumber>1</SequenceNumber> <ContributorRole>A01</ContributorRole> <PersonName>Naila Abdul Sattar</PersonName> <PersonNameInverted>Sattar, Naila Abdul</PersonNameInverted> <ProfessionalAffiliation> <Affiliation>Government College Women University, Faisalabad-Pakistan.</Affiliation> </ProfessionalAffiliation> </Contributor> <Contributor> <SequenceNumber>2</SequenceNumber> <ContributorRole>A01</ContributorRole> <PersonName>Sumera Shaheen</PersonName> <PersonNameInverted>Shaheen, Sumera</PersonNameInverted> <ProfessionalAffiliation> <Affiliation>Government College Women University, Faisalabad-Pakistan</Affiliation> </ProfessionalAffiliation> </Contributor> <Contributor> <SequenceNumber>3</SequenceNumber> <ContributorRole>A01</ContributorRole> <PersonName>Maheen Shehzad</PersonName> <PersonNameInverted>Shehzad, Maheen</PersonNameInverted> <ProfessionalAffiliation> <Affiliation>Alraheem medical complex, GM Abad, Faisalabad-Pakistan</Affiliation> </ProfessionalAffiliation> </Contributor> <Contributor> <SequenceNumber>4</SequenceNumber> <ContributorRole>A01</ContributorRole> <PersonName>Nadia Ishaq</PersonName> <PersonNameInverted>Ishaq, Nadia</PersonNameInverted> <ProfessionalAffiliation> <Affiliation>Government College Women University, Faisalabad-Pakistan</Affiliation> </ProfessionalAffiliation> </Contributor> <Language> <LanguageRole>01</LanguageRole> <LanguageCode>eng</LanguageCode> </Language> <Subject> <SubjectSchemeIdentifier>23</SubjectSchemeIdentifier> <SubjectHeadingText>Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus, Oxidative Stress, Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome, Antioxidants.</SubjectHeadingText> </Subject> <OtherText> <TextTypeCode>01</TextTypeCode> <Text textformat="00" language="eng"> Background: The present study aimed to evaluate the level of oxidative stress by measuring the plasma concentration of oxidants in Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM) patients with and without Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOs).  Methodology: A total of 500 diabetic patients between 25 to 45 years of age were divided into two groups; group 1 included 250 T2DM patients with PCOs, and 250 T2DM patients without PCOs were included in group 2. In addition to the demographic and clinical parameters, antioxidants include Superoxide Dismutase (SOD), Malondialdehyde (MDA), Catalase (CAT), Total antioxidant capacity analyte (TAC), and Glutathione Peroxidase (GSH) was also measured.  Results: No significant difference in the level of antioxidants; SOD and MDA was observed between the diabetic females with and without PCOs (p>0.05). However, Glutathione Peroxidase (GSH-Px) was significantly low in T2DM patients with PCOs as compared to those without PCOs (p<0.05). Surprisingly, the mean catalase levels were significantly high among T2DM females with PCOs (3.6 ± 0 .5 U/g of Hb) than those without PCOs (3.4 ± 0.7 U/g of Hb; p<0.001).  Conclusion: It is suggested that both T2DM and PCOs are linked to a high level of oxidative stress status, but the high catalase level among diabetic PCOs females is alarming and needs to be further studied. Thus, these changes accentuate the need for lifestyle modifications. </Text> </OtherText> <PublicationDate>20220118</PublicationDate> <RelatedWork> <RelationCode>81</RelationCode> <WorkIdentifier> <WorkIDType>01</WorkIDType> <IDValue>1-83</IDValue> </WorkIdentifier> </RelatedWork> <RelatedProduct> <RelationCode>89</RelationCode> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>01</ProductIDType> <IDValue>1-83-799-g798</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> </RelatedProduct> </ContentItem> </DOISerialArticleWork> <DOISerialArticleWork> <NotificationType>06</NotificationType> <DOI>10.29052/IJEHSR.v10.i1.2022.31-35</DOI> <DOIWebsiteLink>https://aeirc-edu.com/ojs14/index.php/IJEHSR/article/view/798</DOIWebsiteLink> <DOIStructuralType>Abstraction</DOIStructuralType> <RegistrantName>Advance Educational Institute and Research Center</RegistrantName> <RegistrationAuthority>mEDRA</RegistrationAuthority> <WorkIdentifier> <WorkIDType>01</WorkIDType> <IDValue>1-83-798</IDValue> </WorkIdentifier> <SerialPublication> <SerialWork> <Title textformat="00" language="eng"> <TitleType>01</TitleType> <TitleText>International Journal of Endorsing Health Science Research (IJEHSR)</TitleText> </Title> <Publisher> <PublishingRole>01</PublishingRole> <PublisherName>Advance Educational Institute and Research Center</PublisherName> </Publisher> <CountryOfPublication>PK</CountryOfPublication> </SerialWork> <SerialVersion> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>01</ProductIDType> <IDValue>1</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>07</ProductIDType> <IDValue>23103841</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> <ProductForm>JD</ProductForm> <EpubFormat>01</EpubFormat> <EpubFormatDescription>Open Journal Systems (OJS)</EpubFormatDescription> </SerialVersion> <SerialVersion> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>07</ProductIDType> <IDValue>23073748</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> <ProductForm>JB</ProductForm> </SerialVersion> </SerialPublication> <JournalIssue> <JournalVolumeNumber>10</JournalVolumeNumber> <JournalIssueNumber>1</JournalIssueNumber> <JournalIssueDesignation>Vol 10 No 1 (2022): International Journal of Endorsing Health Science Research</JournalIssueDesignation> <JournalIssueDate> <DateFormat>06</DateFormat> <Date>2022</Date> </JournalIssueDate> </JournalIssue> <ContentItem> <SequenceNumber>4</SequenceNumber> <TextItem> <PageRun> <FirstPageNumber>31</FirstPageNumber> <LastPageNumber>35</LastPageNumber> </PageRun> </TextItem> <Title textformat="00" language="eng"> <TitleType>01</TitleType> <TitleText>Insulin Resistance in young obese females with and without Polycystic Ovary Syndrome.</TitleText> </Title> <Contributor> <SequenceNumber>1</SequenceNumber> <ContributorRole>A01</ContributorRole> <PersonName>Maheen Shehzad</PersonName> <PersonNameInverted>Shehzad, Maheen</PersonNameInverted> <ProfessionalAffiliation> <Affiliation>Alraheem medical complex, GM Abad, Faisalabad-Pakistan</Affiliation> </ProfessionalAffiliation> </Contributor> <Contributor> <SequenceNumber>2</SequenceNumber> <ContributorRole>A01</ContributorRole> <PersonName>Naila Abdul Sattar</PersonName> <PersonNameInverted>Sattar, Naila Abdul</PersonNameInverted> <ProfessionalAffiliation> <Affiliation>Government College Women University, Faisalabad-Pakistan</Affiliation> </ProfessionalAffiliation> </Contributor> <Contributor> <SequenceNumber>3</SequenceNumber> <ContributorRole>A01</ContributorRole> <PersonName>Nadia Ishaq</PersonName> <PersonNameInverted>Ishaq, Nadia</PersonNameInverted> <ProfessionalAffiliation> <Affiliation>Government College Women University, Faisalabad-Pakistan</Affiliation> </ProfessionalAffiliation> </Contributor> <Language> <LanguageRole>01</LanguageRole> <LanguageCode>eng</LanguageCode> </Language> <Subject> <SubjectSchemeIdentifier>23</SubjectSchemeIdentifier> <SubjectHeadingText>Obesity, Polycystic Ovary Syndrome, Insulin Resistance, HOMA-IR</SubjectHeadingText> </Subject> <OtherText> <TextTypeCode>01</TextTypeCode> <Text textformat="00" language="eng"> Background: The present study intends to determine the comparative insulin resistance (IR) among young obese females with and without polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOs) using the Homeostatic Model Assessment of Insulin Resistance (HOMA-IR).  Methodology: During this comparative cross-sectional study, a total of 300 young obese females were evaluated for the presence of PCOS and insulin resistance. Based on the PCOs diagnosis, 250 obese PCOs females were included in group 1, and group 2 comprised 50 obese non-PCOs females. With the demographic details, patients' diabetic and lipid profiles were also evaluated, and the difference in the inference between the groups was drawn using SPSS version 22.0.  Results: It is to note that more than 90% of the young obese PCOs females were diagnosed with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) while none of the obese non-PCOs females had diabetes. Furthermore, the HOMA-IR score was significantly high among young obese females diagnosed with PCOs (16.30 ± 1.62) as compared to those without PCOs (3.47 ± 0.37) (p<0.01).  Conclusion: It is concluded from the study results that young obese females with PCOS are more prone to develop insulin resistance than those without PCOs. </Text> </OtherText>

genitourinary activity is categorized by the genital deposit of foreign objects. It has been known for centuries and common etiological factors include sexual stimulation. Psychiatric disorders and intoxication may also be associated. Foreign body retrieval and the evaluation of psychosocial factors are involved in management. This study intends to present a 'hair pin' case as a foreign body in the bladder.  Methodology: A 25-year-old female presented to the urology outpatient clinic in early pregnancy with a history of manually inserting hairpin into the urinary bladder through her urethra four years back. She lost to follow up during pregnancy and then presented again after C-section. A plain abdominal film of the kidneys, ureters, and bladder (KUB) confirmed the location of the hairpin and large stone around it in the urinary bladder.  Results: The patient underwent endoscopic removal of foreign body and stone. At cystoscopy urethra was normal, but in the urinary bladder, there was a hairpin with stone formation at its proximal end, and distal portion of the hairpin was embedded in the bladder neck. The hairpin was pushed back in the bladder to separate from the bladder neck, followed by stone fragmentation using a stone punch. After complete removal of stones, the hairpin was aligned in the line of the urethra and removed with the help of forceps.  Conclusion: Depending on the nature of the foreign body and available expertise, methods for removing intravesical foreign bodies are opted. Mostly endoscopic techniques are used for retrieval of intravesical foreign bodies without resorting to open surgery. </Text> </OtherText> <PublicationDate>20220110</PublicationDate> <RelatedWork>

important for initiating appropriate treatment for decreasing the risk of in-hospital mortality. To determine the diagnostic accuracy of procalcitonin (PCT) and quick sequential organ failure assessment (qSOFA) in predicting 3-days in-hospital mortality in suspected sepsis.  Methodology: A cohort study was conducted at the emergency department of Ziauddin University Hospital, Karachi. One-hundred and thirty-two suspected cases of sepsis having age 18-75 years were selected through convenience sampling. PCT level and qSOFA score were obtained for predicting 3-days in-hospital mortality.  Results: Of the study patient, 50.8% were male, and 49.2% were female, with a mean age of 53.7 ± 18.3 years. The mean qSOFA score was 1.8 ± 0.5, and the mean PCT level was 2.7 ± 12.5 ng/ml. The combined QSOFA and PCT 3-days in-hospital mortality prediction was 31.1%, while the actual mortality rate was 28.0%. The combined qSOFA score and PCT level sensitivity was 62.2%, specificity 81.1%, positive predicted value 56.1%, negative predicted value 84.7%, and diagnostic accuracy 75.8%.  Conclusion: The combined use of QSOFA and PCT improves the 3-day in-hospital mortality prediction in suspected cases of sepsis. </Text> </OtherText> <PublicationDate>20211222</PublicationDate> <RelatedWork> <RelationCode>81</RelationCode> <WorkIdentifier> <WorkIDType>01</WorkIDType> <IDValue>1-83</IDValue> </WorkIdentifier> </RelatedWork> <RelatedProduct> <RelationCode>89</RelationCode> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>01</ProductIDType> <IDValue>1-83-764-g796</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> </RelatedProduct> </ContentItem> </DOISerialArticleWork> <DOISerialArticleWork> <NotificationType>06</NotificationType> <DOI>10.29052/IJEHSR.v10.i1.2022.15-23</DOI> <DOIWebsiteLink>https://aeirc-edu.com/ojs14/index.php/IJEHSR/article/view/679</DOIWebsiteLink> <DOIStructuralType>Abstraction</DOIStructuralType> <RegistrantName>Advance Educational Institute and Research Center</RegistrantName> <RegistrationAuthority>mEDRA</RegistrationAuthority> <WorkIdentifier> <WorkIDType>01</WorkIDType> <IDValue>1-83-679</IDValue> </WorkIdentifier> <SerialPublication> <SerialWork> <Title textformat="00" language="eng"> <TitleType>01</TitleType> <TitleText>International Journal of Endorsing Health Science Research (IJEHSR)</TitleText> </Title> <Publisher> <PublishingRole>01</PublishingRole> <PublisherName>Advance Educational Institute and Research Center</PublisherName> </Publisher> <CountryOfPublication>PK</CountryOfPublication> </SerialWork> <SerialVersion> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>01</ProductIDType> <IDValue>1</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>07</ProductIDType> <IDValue>23103841</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> <ProductForm>JD</ProductForm> <EpubFormat>01</EpubFormat> <EpubFormatDescription>Open Journal Systems (OJS)</EpubFormatDescription> </SerialVersion> <SerialVersion> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>07</ProductIDType> <IDValue>23073748</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> <ProductForm>JB</ProductForm> </SerialVersion> </SerialPublication> <JournalIssue> <JournalVolumeNumber>10</JournalVolumeNumber> <JournalIssueNumber>1</JournalIssueNumber> <JournalIssueDesignation>Vol 10 No 1 (2022): International Journal of Endorsing Health Science Research</JournalIssueDesignation> <JournalIssueDate> <DateFormat>06</DateFormat> <Date>2022</Date> </JournalIssueDate> </JournalIssue> <ContentItem> <SequenceNumber>2</SequenceNumber> <TextItem> <PageRun> <FirstPageNumber>15</FirstPageNumber> <LastPageNumber>23</LastPageNumber> </PageRun> </TextItem> <Title textformat="00" language="eng"> <TitleType>01</TitleType> <TitleText>Histomorphometric features of hepatic toxicity caused by carbamazepine and its amelioration with vitamin E.</TitleText> </Title> <Contributor> <SequenceNumber>1</SequenceNumber> <ContributorRole>A01</ContributorRole> <PersonName>Asma Basharat Ali</PersonName> <PersonNameInverted>Ali, Asma Basharat</PersonNameInverted> <ProfessionalAffiliation> <Affiliation>Department of Anatomy, Jinnah Medical & Dental College, Karachi-Pakistan.</Affiliation> </ProfessionalAffiliation> </Contributor> <Contributor> <SequenceNumber>2</SequenceNumber> <ContributorRole>A01</ContributorRole> <PersonName>Nadia Younus</PersonName> <PersonNameInverted>Younus, Nadia</PersonNameInverted> <ProfessionalAffiliation> <Affiliation>Department of Anatomy, Jinnah Medical & Dental College, Karachi-Pakistan.</Affiliation> </ProfessionalAffiliation> </Contributor> <Contributor> <SequenceNumber>3</SequenceNumber> <ContributorRole>A01</ContributorRole> <PersonName>Sahrish Mukhtar</PersonName> <PersonNameInverted>Mukhtar, Sahrish</PersonNameInverted> <ProfessionalAffiliation> <Affiliation>Department of Anatomy, Jinnah Medical & Dental College, Karachi-Pakistan.</Affiliation> </ProfessionalAffiliation> </Contributor> <Contributor> <SequenceNumber>4</SequenceNumber> <ContributorRole>A01</ContributorRole> <PersonName>Hina Abrar</PersonName> <PersonNameInverted>Abrar, Hina</PersonNameInverted> <ProfessionalAffiliation> <Affiliation>Dow College of Pharmacy.

At the end of the study period, animals were sacrificed, their liver was preserved, and tissue was stained with Hematoxylin and Eosin.  Results: The mean final body weights of Carbamazepine treated group B (147.27 ± 13.72 gm) and Carbamazepine + Vitamin E protected group C (164.43 ± 10.73 gm) were decreased significantly in comparison to control A (194.03 ± 14.87 gm). Mean absolute and relative liver weights were increased significantly in groups B & C as compared to group A. Histological examination of liver in group B showed disturbed architecture of hepatic lobules including congested central vein, dilated sinusoids, pyknotic nuclei, steatosis, portal vein dilatation, hemorrhages, and mononuclear infiltration in the portal triad and around the central vein. These changes were reduced in group C. Micrometry confirmed the histological findings, with a significant decrease in mean hepatic cell count and mean hepatocyte nuclear diameter of group B as compared to control group A (6.00 ± 1.41 & 5.62 ± 0.69 µm respectively), and a significant increase in mean hepatocyte diameter of group B in comparison to group A (17.44 ± 1.29 µm).  Conclusion: This study showed that Carbamazepine caused hepatotoxicity while Vitamin E was helpful in its amelioration. </Text> </OtherText> <PublicationDate>20211220</PublicationDate> <RelatedWork> <RelationCode>81</RelationCode> <WorkIdentifier> <WorkIDType>01</WorkIDType> <IDValue>1-83</IDValue> </WorkIdentifier> </RelatedWork> <RelatedProduct> <RelationCode>89</RelationCode> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>01</ProductIDType> <IDValue>1-83-679-g795</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> </RelatedProduct> </ContentItem> </DOISerialArticleWork> <DOISerialArticleWork> <NotificationType>06</NotificationType> <DOI>10.29052/IJEHSR.v10.i1.2022.117-120</DOI> <DOIWebsiteLink>https://aeirc-edu.com/ojs14/index.php/IJEHSR/article/view/763</DOIWebsiteLink> <DOIStructuralType>Abstraction</DOIStructuralType> <RegistrantName>Advance Educational Institute and Research Center</RegistrantName> <RegistrationAuthority>mEDRA</RegistrationAuthority> <WorkIdentifier> <WorkIDType>01</WorkIDType> <IDValue>1-83-763</IDValue> </WorkIdentifier> <SerialPublication> <SerialWork> <Title textformat="00" language="eng"> <TitleType>01</TitleType> <TitleText>International Journal of Endorsing Health Science Research (IJEHSR)</TitleText> </Title> <Publisher> <PublishingRole>01</PublishingRole> <PublisherName>Advance Educational Institute and Research Center</PublisherName> </Publisher> <CountryOfPublication>PK</CountryOfPublication> </SerialWork> <SerialVersion> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>01</ProductIDType> <IDValue>1</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>07</ProductIDType> <IDValue>23103841</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> <ProductForm>JD</ProductForm> <EpubFormat>01</EpubFormat> <EpubFormatDescription>Open Journal Systems (OJS)</EpubFormatDescription> </SerialVersion> <SerialVersion> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>07</ProductIDType> <IDValue>23073748</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> <ProductForm>JB</ProductForm> </SerialVersion> </SerialPublication> <JournalIssue> <JournalVolumeNumber>10</JournalVolumeNumber> <JournalIssueNumber>1</JournalIssueNumber> <JournalIssueDesignation>Vol 10 No 1 (2022): International Journal of Endorsing Health Science Research</JournalIssueDesignation> <JournalIssueDate> <DateFormat>06</DateFormat> <Date>2022</Date> </JournalIssueDate> </JournalIssue> <ContentItem> <SequenceNumber>1</SequenceNumber> <TextItem> <PageRun> <FirstPageNumber>117</FirstPageNumber> <LastPageNumber>120</LastPageNumber> </PageRun> </TextItem> <Title textformat="00" language="eng"> <TitleType>01</TitleType> <TitleText>Leiomyosarcoma of the Superficial Femoral vein – A rare tumor at an unusual site.</TitleText> </Title> <Contributor> <SequenceNumber>1</SequenceNumber> <ContributorRole>A01</ContributorRole> <PersonName>Javaria Aleem</PersonName> <PersonNameInverted>Aleem, Javaria</PersonNameInverted> <ProfessionalAffiliation> <Affiliation>Shaukat Khanum Memorial Cancer Hospital and Research Centre, Pakistan.</Affiliation> </ProfessionalAffiliation> </Contributor> <Contributor> <SequenceNumber>2</SequenceNumber> <ContributorRole>A01</ContributorRole> <PersonName>Pir Abdul Ahad Aziz Qureshi</PersonName> <PersonNameInverted>Qureshi, Pir Abdul Ahad Aziz</PersonNameInverted> <ProfessionalAffiliation> <Affiliation>Syed Abdullah Shah Institute of Medical Sciences, Pakistan.</Affiliation> </ProfessionalAffiliation> </Contributor> <Contributor> <SequenceNumber>3</SequenceNumber> <ContributorRole>A01</ContributorRole> <PersonName>Kashif Siddique</PersonName> <PersonNameInverted>Siddique, Kashif</PersonNameInverted> <ProfessionalAffiliation> <Affiliation>Shaukat Khanum Memorial Cancer Hospital and Research Centre, Pakistan.</Affiliation> </ProfessionalAffiliation> </Contributor> <Contributor> <SequenceNumber>4</SequenceNumber> <ContributorRole>A01</ContributorRole> <PersonName>Amna Babar</PersonName> <PersonNameInverted>Babar, Amna</PersonNameInverted> <ProfessionalAffiliation> <Affiliation>Shaukat Khanum Memorial Cancer Hospital and Research Center, Pakistan.</Affiliation> </ProfessionalAffiliation> </Contributor> <Language> <LanguageRole>01</LanguageRole> <LanguageCode>eng</LanguageCode> </Language> <Subject> <SubjectSchemeIdentifier>23</SubjectSchemeIdentifier> <SubjectHeadingText>Leiomyosarcoma, Vascular Leiomyosarcoma, Vascular Tumor, Lung Metastases, Metastatic Vascular Leiomyosarcoma.</SubjectHeadingText> </Subject> <OtherText> <TextTypeCode>01</TextTypeCode> <Text textformat="00" language="eng"> Background: The leiomyosarcomas most commonly arise from smooth muscles of the uterus and gastrointestinal tract. The vascular origin of the leiomyosarcoma is very rare; however, veins are more frequently affected in such cases.  Case Presentation: A 23-year-old boy presents with left thigh painless swelling. Subsequently, he underwent multimodality radiological examinations, which showed left superficial femoral vein mass, which later on histopathological evaluation came out to be grade III leiomyosarcoma of the superficial femoral vein.  Management & Results: The patient was given chemotherapy, but unfortunately, after three cycles of chemotherapy patient developed pulmonary metastases. Currently, the patient is under palliative treatment.  Conclusion: Primary vascular leiomyosarcomas are very rare entities. The knowledge of these rare tumors is essential for the reporting radiologists and clinicians to properly diagnose these aggressive tumors to prevent any delays in the management. </Text> </OtherText> <PublicationDate>20211218</PublicationDate> <RelatedWork> <RelationCode>81</RelationCode> <WorkIdentifier> <WorkIDType>01</WorkIDType> <IDValue>1-83</IDValue> </WorkIdentifier> </RelatedWork> <RelatedProduct> <RelationCode>89</RelationCode> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>01</ProductIDType> <IDValue>1-83-763-g809</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> </RelatedProduct> </ContentItem> </DOISerialArticleWork> <DOISerialArticleWork> <NotificationType>06</NotificationType> <DOI>10.29052/IJEHSR.v10.i1.2022.06-14</DOI> <DOIWebsiteLink>https://aeirc-edu.com/ojs14/index.php/IJEHSR/article/view/587</DOIWebsiteLink> <DOIStructuralType>Abstraction</DOIStructuralType> <RegistrantName>Advance Educational Institute and Research Center</RegistrantName> <RegistrationAuthority>mEDRA</RegistrationAuthority> <WorkIdentifier> <WorkIDType>01</WorkIDType> <IDValue>1-83-587</IDValue> </WorkIdentifier> <SerialPublication> <SerialWork> <Title textformat="00" language="eng"> <TitleType>01</TitleType> <TitleText>International Journal of Endorsing Health Science Research (IJEHSR)</TitleText> </Title> <Publisher> <PublishingRole>01</PublishingRole> <PublisherName>Advance Educational Institute and Research Center</PublisherName> </Publisher> <CountryOfPublication>PK</CountryOfPublication> </SerialWork> <SerialVersion> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>01</ProductIDType> <IDValue>1</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>07</ProductIDType> <IDValue>23103841</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> <ProductForm>JD</ProductForm> <EpubFormat>01</EpubFormat> <EpubFormatDescription>Open Journal Systems (OJS)</EpubFormatDescription> </SerialVersion> <SerialVersion> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>07</ProductIDType> <IDValue>23073748</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> <ProductForm>JB</ProductForm> </SerialVersion> </SerialPublication> <JournalIssue> <JournalVolumeNumber>10</JournalVolumeNumber> <JournalIssueNumber>1</JournalIssueNumber> <JournalIssueDesignation>Vol 10 No 1 (2022): International Journal of Endorsing Health Science Research</JournalIssueDesignation> <JournalIssueDate> <DateFormat>06</DateFormat> <Date>2022</Date> </JournalIssueDate> </JournalIssue> <ContentItem> <SequenceNumber>1</SequenceNumber> <TextItem> <PageRun> <FirstPageNumber>06</FirstPageNumber> <LastPageNumber>14</LastPageNumber> </PageRun> </TextItem> <Title textformat="00" language="eng"> <TitleType>01</TitleType> <TitleText>Bacterial load determination of poultry feed with seasonality effect in Karachi, Pakistan.</TitleText> </Title> <Contributor> <SequenceNumber>1</SequenceNumber> <ContributorRole>A01</ContributorRole> <PersonName>Shajeela Iram</PersonName> <PersonNameInverted>Iram, Shajeela</PersonNameInverted> <ProfessionalAffiliation> <Affiliation>1.

The poultry feed microbial analysis help to control food-borne illness. In addition, the knowledge about seasonal effects on microbial growth helps the manufacturers to take precautionary measures in alarming months to maintain the standard quality of poultry feed.  Methodology: This study was designed to identify and enumerate bacteria and their seasonal variation. Total feed samples (n=204) were evaluated through traditional culture techniques, microscopic inspection, and biochemical properties. However, bacterial load was determined by using the total viable count.  Results: As a result, five genera, including Salmonella enterica (39.05%), Escherichia coli (22.48%), Bacillus subtilis (18.34%), Staphylococcus aureus (11.24%), and Streptococcus sp (8.87%), were isolated. The proportion of occurrence of the bacterial load was lowest in December-February (64.4%) and highest in June-August (96.2%). Whereas in September-November was (87.6%) and March-May (77.5%). On the whole, the total percentage of positive samples was 82.8%. Statistical analysis revealed that (9.9×10-8 cfu/g) was the highest viable bacterial count recorded from June to August. The presence of food-borne pathogens, especially S.enterica and E.coli, is bothersome. Moreover, June to August is considered the most troubling month due to the elevated level of contamination.  Conclusion: To evade microbial contamination, the microbiological security rules must be followed throughout the process of formulation and storage period, especially in sensitive hot and humid months of June to August. Also, standard inspection should be taken to control the dissemination of food-borne illness. </Text> </OtherText> <PublicationDate>20211217</PublicationDate> <RelatedWork> <RelationCode>81</RelationCode> <WorkIdentifier> <WorkIDType>01</WorkIDType> <IDValue>1-83</IDValue> </WorkIdentifier> </RelatedWork> <RelatedProduct> <RelationCode>89</RelationCode> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>01</ProductIDType> <IDValue>1-83-587-g794</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> </RelatedProduct> </ContentItem> </DOISerialArticleWork> <DOISerialArticleWork> <NotificationType>06</NotificationType> <DOI>10.29052/IJEHSR.v9.i4.2021.534-540</DOI> <DOIWebsiteLink>https://aeirc-edu.com/ojs14/index.php/IJEHSR/article/view/661</DOIWebsiteLink> <DOIStructuralType>Abstraction</DOIStructuralType> <RegistrantName>Advance Educational Institute and Research Center</RegistrantName> <RegistrationAuthority>mEDRA</RegistrationAuthority> <WorkIdentifier> <WorkIDType>01</WorkIDType> <IDValue>1-81-661</IDValue> </WorkIdentifier> <SerialPublication> <SerialWork> <Title textformat="00" language="eng"> <TitleType>01</TitleType> <TitleText>International Journal of Endorsing Health Science Research (IJEHSR)</TitleText> </Title> <Publisher> <PublishingRole>01</PublishingRole> <PublisherName>Advance Educational Institute and Research Center</PublisherName> </Publisher> <CountryOfPublication>PK</CountryOfPublication> </SerialWork> <SerialVersion> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>01</ProductIDType> <IDValue>1</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>07</ProductIDType> <IDValue>23103841</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> <ProductForm>JD</ProductForm> <EpubFormat>01</EpubFormat> <EpubFormatDescription>Open Journal Systems (OJS)</EpubFormatDescription> </SerialVersion> <SerialVersion> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>07</ProductIDType> <IDValue>23073748</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> <ProductForm>JB</ProductForm> </SerialVersion> </SerialPublication> <JournalIssue> <JournalVolumeNumber>9</JournalVolumeNumber> <JournalIssueNumber>4</JournalIssueNumber> <JournalIssueDesignation>Vol 9 No 4 (2021): International Journal of Endorsing Health Science Research</JournalIssueDesignation> <JournalIssueDate> <DateFormat>06</DateFormat> <Date>2021</Date> </JournalIssueDate> </JournalIssue> <ContentItem> <SequenceNumber>3</SequenceNumber> <TextItem> <PageRun> <FirstPageNumber>534</FirstPageNumber> <LastPageNumber>540</LastPageNumber> </PageRun> </TextItem> <Title textformat="00" language="eng"> <TitleType>01</TitleType> <TitleText>Uterine arteriovenous malformation: A rare yet perilous entity.</TitleText> </Title> <Contributor> <SequenceNumber>1</SequenceNumber> <ContributorRole>A01</ContributorRole> <PersonName>Gul-e-rana Abdul Mannan</PersonName> <PersonNameInverted>Abdul Mannan, Gul-e-rana</PersonNameInverted> <ProfessionalAffiliation> <Affiliation>Department of Gynecology and Obstetrics, Canadian Specialist Hospital Abu hail-Dubai- UAE.</Affiliation> </ProfessionalAffiliation> </Contributor> <Contributor> <SequenceNumber>2</SequenceNumber> <ContributorRole>A01</ContributorRole> <PersonName>Rabiya Niaz</PersonName> <PersonNameInverted>Niaz, Rabiya</PersonNameInverted> <ProfessionalAffiliation> <Affiliation>Department of Gynecology and Obstetrics, Canadian Specialist Hospital Abu hail-Dubai- UAE.</Affiliation> </ProfessionalAffiliation> </Contributor> <Contributor> <SequenceNumber>3</SequenceNumber> <ContributorRole>A01</ContributorRole> <PersonName>Durr-e-shahwar Hayat</PersonName> <PersonNameInverted>Hayat, Durr-e-shahwar</PersonNameInverted> <ProfessionalAffiliation> <Affiliation>Department of Radiology, Memon medical institute hospital Karachi-Pakistan.</Affiliation> </ProfessionalAffiliation> </Contributor> <Contributor> <SequenceNumber>4</SequenceNumber> <ContributorRole>A01</ContributorRole> <PersonName>Vyomesh Buch</PersonName> <PersonNameInverted>Buch, Vyomesh</PersonNameInverted> <ProfessionalAffiliation> <Affiliation>Department of Radiology, Canadian Specialist Hospital Abu hail-Dubai-UAE.</Affiliation> </ProfessionalAffiliation> </Contributor> <Contributor> <SequenceNumber>5</SequenceNumber> <ContributorRole>A01</ContributorRole> <PersonName>Sarwat Ansari</PersonName> <PersonNameInverted>Ansari, Sarwat</PersonNameInverted> <ProfessionalAffiliation> <Affiliation>Department of Radiology, Canadian Specialist Hospital Abu hail-Dubai-UAE.</Affiliation> </ProfessionalAffiliation> </Contributor> <Language> <LanguageRole>01</LanguageRole> <LanguageCode>eng</LanguageCode> </Language> <Subject> <SubjectSchemeIdentifier>23</SubjectSchemeIdentifier> <SubjectHeadingText>Uterine Arteriovenous Malformation, Hysteroscopy, Endometrial Curettage, Pyometrium, Endometritis.</SubjectHeadingText> </Subject> <OtherText> <TextTypeCode>01</TextTypeCode> <Text textformat="00" language="eng"> Background: Uterine Arteriovenous Malformation (AVM) is a rare diagnosis. Although rare, it can cause massive and life-threatening hemorrhage, eventually leading to considerable morbidity and mortality. Healthcare professionals need to have a high index of suspicion in order to avoid the morbidity associated with Uterine Arteriovenous Malformation. We shed light on this relatively under-researched gynecologic diagnosis.  Case Presentation: We describe the presentation, workup, including radiological studies, and subsequent management of Uterine Arteriovenous Malformation in two reproductive-age females who presented to our hospital with abnormal vaginal bleeding. Both patients had a history of primary hemorrhage after abortion, requiring blood transfusion. Both patients underwent Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and showed a tortuous serpentine tangle of mixed signals extending from the deep myometrium into the endometrium.  Management & Results: Diagnosis of Uterine AVM was established months later when they presented with continuous abnormal vaginal bleeding. The diagnosis was established based on clinical examination and imaging studies. Patients were managed with hormonal treatment and responded well; one of them eventually got a successful pregnancy.  Conclusion: Uterine arteriovenous malformation, causing significant vaginal bleeding, can be managed timely with accurate diagnosis and prompt management, with an array of modalities including conservative, medical or surgical methods. The modality of treatment depends upon the patient’s clinical condition and fertility wishes. </Text> </OtherText> <PublicationDate>20211129</PublicationDate> <RelatedWork>

is well known for relieving urinary tract obstruction, but still, some patients might develop double-J stent-related urinary tract infection (UTI), lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS), lower abdominal pain, and hematuria. This study aims to compare alpha-blockers and antimuscarinics for the treatment of double-j stent-related lower urinary tract symptoms.  Methodology: Patients planned for double-J stent insertion undergoing the urological procedure for ureteric stones were recruited and randomly allocated into two groups. One group was labeled as the tamsulosin (T), and the other was labeled as the solifenacin succinate (S) group. Group" T" patients were prescribed tamsulosin 0.4 mg once at bedtime and solifenacin succinate 10mg once daily to group "S" for 2 weeks. Improvement in symptoms was checked by means of international prostate symptom score (IPSS)/ quality of life (QoL) score charts for LUTS in the out-patient clinic at baseline and at follow-up.  Results: When comparing the absolute changes in IPSS/QoL for LUTS scores, both groups showed significant improvement in double-J stent-related lower urinary symptoms, body pain, generalized body weakness, and sexual function, which affect their quality of life (QoL). The mean index score of all domains in both groups was significantly less (p<0.001). Tamsulosin and solifenacin succinate (S) group was found equally efficacious on urinary symptoms (26.01 ± 5.65 (pre); 5.74 ± 0.99 (post) vs. 26.61 ± 5.7 (pre); 26.01 ± 0.97 (post), (p≤0.001). Similarly, the score of QoI was also found equally efficacious in both groups in pre and post-insertion on two weeks (4.96 ± 0.7 (pre); 81.58 ± 0.64 (post) vs. 4.99 ± 0.81 (pre); 1.45 ± 0.5 (post) (p<0.001).  Conclusion: On the basis of results, it is said that a combination of alpha-blockers and antimuscarinic agents has shown significant improvement to reduce double-J stent-related lower urinary symptoms, pain, and quality of life than a single drug alone. </Text> </OtherText> <PublicationDate>20211127</PublicationDate> <RelatedWork> <RelationCode>81</RelationCode> <WorkIdentifier> <WorkIDType>01</WorkIDType> <IDValue>1-81</IDValue> </WorkIdentifier> </RelatedWork> <RelatedProduct> <RelationCode>89</RelationCode> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>01</ProductIDType> <IDValue>1-81-737-g752</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> </RelatedProduct> </ContentItem> </DOISerialArticleWork> <DOISerialArticleWork> <NotificationType>06</NotificationType> <DOI>10.29052/IJEHSR.v9.i4.2021.511-517</DOI> <DOIWebsiteLink>https://aeirc-edu.com/ojs14/index.php/IJEHSR/article/view/762</DOIWebsiteLink> <DOIStructuralType>Abstraction</DOIStructuralType> <RegistrantName>Advance Educational Institute and Research Center</RegistrantName> <RegistrationAuthority>mEDRA</RegistrationAuthority> <WorkIdentifier> <WorkIDType>01</WorkIDType> <IDValue>1-81-762</IDValue> </WorkIdentifier> <SerialPublication> <SerialWork> <Title textformat="00" language="eng"> <TitleType>01</TitleType> <TitleText>International Journal of Endorsing Health Science Research (IJEHSR)</TitleText> </Title> <Publisher> <PublishingRole>01</PublishingRole> <PublisherName>Advance Educational Institute and Research Center</PublisherName> </Publisher> <CountryOfPublication>PK</CountryOfPublication> </SerialWork> <SerialVersion> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>01</ProductIDType> <IDValue>1</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>07</ProductIDType> <IDValue>23103841</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> <ProductForm>JD</ProductForm> <EpubFormat>01</EpubFormat> <EpubFormatDescription>Open Journal Systems (OJS)</EpubFormatDescription> </SerialVersion> <SerialVersion> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>07</ProductIDType> <IDValue>23073748</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> <ProductForm>JB</ProductForm> </SerialVersion> </SerialPublication> <JournalIssue> <JournalVolumeNumber>9</JournalVolumeNumber> <JournalIssueNumber>4</JournalIssueNumber> <JournalIssueDesignation>Vol 9 No 4 (2021): International Journal of Endorsing Health Science Research</JournalIssueDesignation> <JournalIssueDate> <DateFormat>06</DateFormat> <Date>2021</Date> </JournalIssueDate> </JournalIssue> <ContentItem> <SequenceNumber>12</SequenceNumber> <TextItem> <PageRun> <FirstPageNumber>511</FirstPageNumber> <LastPageNumber>517</LastPageNumber> </PageRun> </TextItem> <Title textformat="00" language="eng"> <TitleType>01</TitleType> <TitleText>PRISM score as a predictor of mortality among pediatric intensive care units.</TitleText> </Title> <Contributor> <SequenceNumber>1</SequenceNumber> <ContributorRole>A01</ContributorRole> <PersonName>Hina Akhtar</PersonName> <PersonNameInverted>Akhtar, Hina</PersonNameInverted> <ProfessionalAffiliation> <Affiliation>Dr. Ziauddin Hospital Clifton, Karachi-Pakistan.</Affiliation> </ProfessionalAffiliation> </Contributor> <Contributor> <SequenceNumber>2</SequenceNumber> <ContributorRole>A01</ContributorRole> <PersonName>Shaista Ehsan</PersonName> <PersonNameInverted>Ehsan, Shaista</PersonNameInverted> <ProfessionalAffiliation> <Affiliation>Dr. Ziauddin Hospital Clifton, Karachi-Pakistan.</Affiliation> </ProfessionalAffiliation> </Contributor> <Contributor> <SequenceNumber>3</SequenceNumber> <ContributorRole>A01</ContributorRole> <PersonName>Muhammad Imran</PersonName> <PersonNameInverted>Imran, Muhammad</PersonNameInverted> <ProfessionalAffiliation> <Affiliation>Institute of Medical Technology, Jinnah Sindh Medical University, Karachi-Pakistan.</Affiliation> </ProfessionalAffiliation> </Contributor> <Contributor> <SequenceNumber>4</SequenceNumber> <ContributorRole>A01</ContributorRole> <PersonName>Kunwar Muhammad Aqeel</PersonName> <PersonNameInverted>Aqeel, Kunwar Muhammad</PersonNameInverted> <ProfessionalAffiliation> <Affiliation>National Heart Institute, Kuala Lumpur-Malaysia.</Affiliation> </ProfessionalAffiliation> </Contributor> <Language> <LanguageRole>01</LanguageRole> <LanguageCode>eng</LanguageCode> </Language> <Subject> <SubjectSchemeIdentifier>23</SubjectSchemeIdentifier> <SubjectHeadingText>PRISM Score, Pediatric Intensive Care, Mortality.</SubjectHeadingText> </Subject> <OtherText> <TextTypeCode>01</TextTypeCode> <Text textformat="00" language="eng"> Background: The pediatric risk of mortality (PRISM) score predicts mortality in the pediatric intensive care unit (PICU). This study aimed to evaluate the application of PRISM score as a predictor of mortality in intensive care units of a tertiary hospital.  Methodology: A descriptive cross-sectional study of one year was conducted within the Department of Pediatrics at Ziauddin University and Hospital, located in Karachi, Pakistan. The total number of 263 admitted neonates and children up to the age of 12 years were included. Patients more than 12 years of age admitted in wards and plane for any surgery were excluded from the study; the PRISM score tool was used to collect the data of the neonates and children.  Results: The mean PRISM score was high among non-survivors (15.3 ± 7.2) as compared to survivors (12.7 ± 9.2) (p=0.023). The predictability of the PRISM score regarding pediatric mortality was shown by the area under the curve (AUC) i.e., 0.636.  Conclusion: The PRISM score found a significant difference between survival and death groups. Therefore the implication of the PRISM score can be needed in PICU to reduce the mortality rate. </Text> </OtherText> <PublicationDate>20211115</PublicationDate> <RelatedWork> <RelationCode>81</RelationCode> <WorkIdentifier> <WorkIDType>01</WorkIDType> <IDValue>1-81</IDValue> </WorkIdentifier> </RelatedWork> <RelatedProduct> <RelationCode>89</RelationCode> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>01</ProductIDType> <IDValue>1-81-762-g754</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> </RelatedProduct> </ContentItem> </DOISerialArticleWork> <DOISerialArticleWork> <NotificationType>06</NotificationType> <DOI>10.29052/IJEHSR.v9.i4.2021.499-510</DOI> <DOIWebsiteLink>https://aeirc-edu.com/ojs14/index.php/IJEHSR/article/view/662</DOIWebsiteLink> <DOIStructuralType>Abstraction</DOIStructuralType> <RegistrantName>Advance Educational Institute and Research Center</RegistrantName> <RegistrationAuthority>mEDRA</RegistrationAuthority> <WorkIdentifier> <WorkIDType>01</WorkIDType> <IDValue>1-81-662</IDValue> </WorkIdentifier> <SerialPublication> <SerialWork> <Title textformat="00" language="eng"> <TitleType>01</TitleType> <TitleText>International Journal of Endorsing Health Science Research (IJEHSR)</TitleText> </Title> <Publisher> <PublishingRole>01</PublishingRole> <PublisherName>Advance Educational Institute and Research Center</PublisherName> </Publisher> <CountryOfPublication>PK</CountryOfPublication> </SerialWork> <SerialVersion> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>01</ProductIDType> <IDValue>1</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>07</ProductIDType> <IDValue>23103841</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> <ProductForm>JD</ProductForm> <EpubFormat>01</EpubFormat> <EpubFormatDescription>Open Journal Systems (OJS)</EpubFormatDescription> </SerialVersion> <SerialVersion> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>07</ProductIDType> <IDValue>23073748</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> <ProductForm>JB</ProductForm> </SerialVersion> </SerialPublication> <JournalIssue> <JournalVolumeNumber>9</JournalVolumeNumber> <JournalIssueNumber>4</JournalIssueNumber> <JournalIssueDesignation>Vol 9 No 4 (2021): International Journal of Endorsing Health Science Research</JournalIssueDesignation> <JournalIssueDate> <DateFormat>06</DateFormat> <Date>2021</Date> </JournalIssueDate> </JournalIssue> <ContentItem> <SequenceNumber>11</SequenceNumber> <TextItem> <PageRun> <FirstPageNumber>499</FirstPageNumber> <LastPageNumber>510</LastPageNumber> </PageRun> </TextItem> <Title textformat="00" language="eng"> <TitleType>01</TitleType> <TitleText>Evaluation of the antifungal, antibacterial, and anti-inflammatory activity of a halophyte plant Arthrocnemum macrostachyum Koch extracts.</TitleText> </Title> <Contributor> <SequenceNumber>1</SequenceNumber> <ContributorRole>A01</ContributorRole> <PersonName>Sana Eijaz</PersonName> <PersonNameInverted>Eijaz, Sana</PersonNameInverted> <ProfessionalAffiliation> <Affiliation>Department of Microbiology, University of Karachi, Karachi-Pakistan.</Affiliation> </ProfessionalAffiliation> </Contributor> <Contributor> <SequenceNumber>2</SequenceNumber> <ContributorRole>A01</ContributorRole> <PersonName>Muneeba Khan</PersonName> <PersonNameInverted>Khan, Muneeba</PersonNameInverted> <ProfessionalAffiliation> <Affiliation>Center for Plant Conservation, University of Karachi, Karachi-Pakistan.</Affiliation> </ProfessionalAffiliation> </Contributor> <Contributor> <SequenceNumber>3</SequenceNumber> <ContributorRole>A01</ContributorRole> <PersonName>Amber Mirza</PersonName> <PersonNameInverted>Mirza, Amber</PersonNameInverted> <ProfessionalAffiliation> <Affiliation>Department of Microbiology, University of Karachi, Karachi-Pakistan.</Affiliation> </ProfessionalAffiliation> </Contributor> <Contributor> <SequenceNumber>4</SequenceNumber> <ContributorRole>A01</ContributorRole> <PersonName>Anjum Parveen</PersonName> <PersonNameInverted>Parveen, Anjum</PersonNameInverted> <ProfessionalAffiliation> <Affiliation>Center for Plant Conservation, University of Karachi, Karachi-Pakistan.</Affiliation> </ProfessionalAffiliation> </Contributor> <Contributor> <SequenceNumber>5</SequenceNumber> <ContributorRole>A01</ContributorRole> <PersonName>Shazia Mansuri</PersonName> <PersonNameInverted>Mansuri, Shazia</PersonNameInverted> <ProfessionalAffiliation> <Affiliation>Center for Plant Conservation, University of Karachi, Karachi-Pakistan.</Affiliation> </ProfessionalAffiliation> </Contributor> <Contributor> <SequenceNumber>6</SequenceNumber> <ContributorRole>A01</ContributorRole> <PersonName>Muhammad Nadir</PersonName> <PersonNameInverted>Nadir, Muhammad</PersonNameInverted> <ProfessionalAffiliation> <Affiliation>1.

In this regard, we analyzed the plant extracts as an alternative solution for the inhibition of the resistant bugs.  Methodology: This study was planned to investigate the antifungal, antibacterial and anti-inflammatory activities of hexane, ethyl acetate, chloroform, and methanol extracts of Arthrocnemum macrostachyum. Soxhlet apparatus was used to prepare different extracts of the whole plant using hexane, ethyl acetate, chloroform, and methanol. The antifungal and antibacterial activity was analyzed with the help of a good diffusion technique using different concentrations of plant extracts. The anti-inflammatory activity was also checked by observing the inhibition of albumin denaturation.  Results: Maximum antifungal activity was observed by hexane, methanol, and chloroform extracts, and maximum antibacterial activity showed by the methanol extract. The most sensitive fungi found were Mucor, Aspergillus flavus, Saccharomyces, and Candida. Trichophyton mentagrophytes were found resistant to all the extracts. The most sensitive bacterial isolates found were Salmonella typhi, Proteus mirabilis, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and Citrobacter freundii. The most resistant organisms were Streptococcus fecalis and Shigella dysenteriae. Methanol and chloroform extracts produced observable anti-inflammatory potential by inhibiting albumin denaturation. Statistical analysis was performed on SPSS version 23.0.  Conclusion: The plant extracts showed significant antifungal, antibacterial and anti-inflammatory activity. These findings may support using the Arthrocnemum macrostachyum whole plant as an anti-inflammatory, antibacterial, and traditional antifungal plant. Our results demonstrate that this plant has considerable therapeutic effects on potential infectious agents and can be used to alternative conventional medicines. </Text> </OtherText> <PublicationDate>20211103</PublicationDate> <RelatedWork> <RelationCode>81</RelationCode> <WorkIdentifier> <WorkIDType>01</WorkIDType> <IDValue>1-81</IDValue> </WorkIdentifier> </RelatedWork> <RelatedProduct> <RelationCode>89</RelationCode> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>01</ProductIDType> <IDValue>1-81-662-g748</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> </RelatedProduct> </ContentItem> </DOISerialArticleWork> <DOISerialArticleWork> <NotificationType>06</NotificationType> <DOI>10.29052/IJEHSR.v9.i4.2021.559-564</DOI> <DOIWebsiteLink>https://aeirc-edu.com/ojs14/index.php/IJEHSR/article/view/752</DOIWebsiteLink> <DOIStructuralType>Abstraction</DOIStructuralType> <RegistrantName>Advance Educational Institute and Research Center</RegistrantName> <RegistrationAuthority>mEDRA</RegistrationAuthority> <WorkIdentifier> <WorkIDType>01</WorkIDType> <IDValue>1-81-752</IDValue> </WorkIdentifier> <SerialPublication> <SerialWork> <Title textformat="00" language="eng"> <TitleType>01</TitleType> <TitleText>International Journal of Endorsing Health Science Research (IJEHSR)</TitleText> </Title> <Publisher> <PublishingRole>01</PublishingRole> <PublisherName>Advance Educational Institute and Research Center</PublisherName> </Publisher> <CountryOfPublication>PK</CountryOfPublication> </SerialWork> <SerialVersion> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>01</ProductIDType> <IDValue>1</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>07</ProductIDType> <IDValue>23103841</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> <ProductForm>JD</ProductForm> <EpubFormat>01</EpubFormat> <EpubFormatDescription>Open Journal Systems (OJS)</EpubFormatDescription> </SerialVersion> <SerialVersion> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>07</ProductIDType> <IDValue>23073748</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> <ProductForm>JB</ProductForm> </SerialVersion> </SerialPublication> <JournalIssue> <JournalVolumeNumber>9</JournalVolumeNumber> <JournalIssueNumber>4</JournalIssueNumber> <JournalIssueDesignation>Vol 9 No 4 (2021): International Journal of Endorsing Health Science Research</JournalIssueDesignation> <JournalIssueDate> <DateFormat>06</DateFormat> <Date>2021</Date> </JournalIssueDate> </JournalIssue> <ContentItem> <SequenceNumber>1</SequenceNumber> <TextItem> <PageRun> <FirstPageNumber>559</FirstPageNumber> <LastPageNumber>564</LastPageNumber> </PageRun> </TextItem> <Title textformat="00" language="eng"> <TitleType>01</TitleType> <TitleText>Impact of educational intervention on hypertension management by primary care physician (PUMP trial).</TitleText> </Title> <Contributor> <SequenceNumber>1</SequenceNumber> <ContributorRole>A01</ContributorRole> <PersonName>Tariq Ashraf</PersonName> <PersonNameInverted>Ashraf, Tariq</PersonNameInverted> <ProfessionalAffiliation> <Affiliation>Karachi Institute of Heart Disease, Karachi-Pakistan.</Affiliation> </ProfessionalAffiliation> </Contributor> <Contributor> <SequenceNumber>2</SequenceNumber> <ContributorRole>A01</ContributorRole> <PersonName>Kanwal Fatima</PersonName> <PersonNameInverted>Fatima, Kanwal</PersonNameInverted> <ProfessionalAffiliation> <Affiliation>National Institute of Cardiovascular Disease, Karachi-Pakistan.</Affiliation> </ProfessionalAffiliation> </Contributor> <Contributor> <SequenceNumber>3</SequenceNumber> <ContributorRole>A01</ContributorRole> <PersonName>Asif Nadeem</PersonName> <PersonNameInverted>Nadeem, Asif</PersonNameInverted> <ProfessionalAffiliation> <Affiliation>Armed Forces Institute of cardiology, Rawalpindi-Pakistan.</Affiliation> </ProfessionalAffiliation> </Contributor> <Contributor> <SequenceNumber>4</SequenceNumber> <ContributorRole>A01</ContributorRole> <PersonName>Arslan Masood</PersonName> <PersonNameInverted>Masood, Arslan</PersonNameInverted> <ProfessionalAffiliation> <Affiliation>Allama Iqbal Medical college, Lahore-Pakistan.</Affiliation> </ProfessionalAffiliation> </Contributor> <Contributor> <SequenceNumber>5</SequenceNumber> <ContributorRole>A01</ContributorRole> <PersonName>Mahmood Ul Hassan</PersonName> <PersonNameInverted>Hassan, Mahmood Ul</PersonNameInverted> <ProfessionalAffiliation> <Affiliation>Hayat Abad Medical Complex, Peshawar-Pakistan.</Affiliation> </ProfessionalAffiliation> </Contributor> <Contributor> <SequenceNumber>6</SequenceNumber> <ContributorRole>A01</ContributorRole> <PersonName>Haseeb Raza</PersonName> <PersonNameInverted>Raza, Haseeb</PersonNameInverted> <ProfessionalAffiliation> <Affiliation>Mukhtar A.

The current study aims to observe hypertension educational intervention's effect on general physicians (GPs) to indirectly improve blood pressure control and patient outcomes.  Methodology: In this randomized control trial, GPs will be divided into 2 groups and both groups will be asked to fill hypertension awareness questionnaire at baseline and, after randomization. GPs of the group I will receive (1 day) face-to-face education with structured educational material on hypertension management strategies. GPs of group II will receive the print version of educational material (structured educational material) on strategies of structured hypertension management. Both groups of GPs will recruit 10 (5 newly diagnosed + 5 already diagnosed patients) from the study site. The patient will be asked to fill hypertension awareness questionnaire at baseline and share a 12-hour blood pressure measurement. GPs and patients will be reassessed after 3 months of intervention.  Discussion: The purpose of designing this study is to observe the effect of hypertension educational intervention for general physicians to improve blood pressure control and patient outcomes indirectly. Results of this study may provide a basis for developing a hypertension educational program targeted at general physicians.  Trial registration: The trial was registered with ClinicalTrials.gov NCT05038774. </Text> </OtherText> <PublicationDate>20211026</PublicationDate> <RelatedWork> <RelationCode>81</RelationCode> <WorkIdentifier> <WorkIDType>01</WorkIDType> <IDValue>1-81</IDValue> </WorkIdentifier> </RelatedWork> <RelatedProduct> <RelationCode>89</RelationCode> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>01</ProductIDType> <IDValue>1-81-752-g745</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> </RelatedProduct> </ContentItem> </DOISerialArticleWork> <DOISerialArticleWork> <NotificationType>06</NotificationType> <DOI>10.29052/IJEHSR.v9.i4.2021.555-558</DOI> <DOIWebsiteLink>https://aeirc-edu.com/ojs14/index.php/IJEHSR/article/view/741</DOIWebsiteLink> <DOIStructuralType>Abstraction</DOIStructuralType> <RegistrantName>Advance Educational Institute and Research Center</RegistrantName> <RegistrationAuthority>mEDRA</RegistrationAuthority> <WorkIdentifier> <WorkIDType>01</WorkIDType> <IDValue>1-81-741</IDValue> </WorkIdentifier> <SerialPublication> <SerialWork> <Title textformat="00" language="eng"> <TitleType>01</TitleType> <TitleText>International Journal of Endorsing Health Science Research (IJEHSR)</TitleText> </Title> <Publisher> <PublishingRole>01</PublishingRole> <PublisherName>Advance Educational Institute and Research Center</PublisherName> </Publisher> <CountryOfPublication>PK</CountryOfPublication> </SerialWork> <SerialVersion> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>01</ProductIDType> <IDValue>1</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>07</ProductIDType> <IDValue>23103841</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> <ProductForm>JD</ProductForm> <EpubFormat>01</EpubFormat> <EpubFormatDescription>Open Journal Systems (OJS)</EpubFormatDescription> </SerialVersion> <SerialVersion> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>07</ProductIDType> <IDValue>23073748</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> <ProductForm>JB</ProductForm> </SerialVersion> </SerialPublication> <JournalIssue> <JournalVolumeNumber>9</JournalVolumeNumber> <JournalIssueNumber>4</JournalIssueNumber> <JournalIssueDesignation>Vol 9 No 4 (2021): International Journal of Endorsing Health Science Research</JournalIssueDesignation> <JournalIssueDate> <DateFormat>06</DateFormat> <Date>2021</Date> </JournalIssueDate> </JournalIssue> <ContentItem> <SequenceNumber>1</SequenceNumber> <TextItem> <PageRun> <FirstPageNumber>555</FirstPageNumber> <LastPageNumber>558</LastPageNumber> </PageRun> </TextItem> <Title textformat="00" language="eng"> <TitleType>01</TitleType> <TitleText>The neuro-invasive potential of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2</TitleText> </Title> <Contributor> <SequenceNumber>1</SequenceNumber> <ContributorRole>A01</ContributorRole> <PersonName>Fabiha Qayyum</PersonName> <PersonNameInverted>Qayyum, Fabiha</PersonNameInverted> <ProfessionalAffiliation> <Affiliation>Ameer-ud-din Medical College, Post Graduate Medical Institute, Lahore General Hospital, Lahore-Pakistan.</Affiliation> </ProfessionalAffiliation> </Contributor> <Contributor> <SequenceNumber>2</SequenceNumber> <ContributorRole>A01</ContributorRole> <PersonName>Muna Malik</PersonName> <PersonNameInverted>Malik, Muna</PersonNameInverted> <ProfessionalAffiliation> <Affiliation>Department of Pathology, Ameer-ud-din Medical College, Post Graduate Medical Institute, Lahore General Hospital, Lahore-Pakistan.</Affiliation> </ProfessionalAffiliation> </Contributor> <Contributor> <SequenceNumber>3</SequenceNumber> <ContributorRole>A01</ContributorRole> <PersonName>Muhammad Irfan Malik</PersonName> <PersonNameInverted>Malik, Muhammad Irfan</PersonNameInverted> <ProfessionalAffiliation> <Affiliation>Department of Pulmonology, Lahore General Hospital, Lahore-Pakistan.</Affiliation> </ProfessionalAffiliation> </Contributor> <Language> <LanguageRole>01</LanguageRole> <LanguageCode>eng</LanguageCode> </Language> <Subject> <SubjectSchemeIdentifier>23</SubjectSchemeIdentifier> <SubjectHeadingText>COVID-19, Neuro-Invasion, Latency, Cerebrospinal Fluid.</SubjectHeadingText> </Subject> <OtherText> <TextTypeCode>01</TextTypeCode> <Text textformat="00" language="eng"> Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome-CoronaVirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2) induced coronavirus disease (COVID-19) presents with several neurological manifestations just like other Beta Corona Virus (βCoV) family members. SARS-CoV-2 affects the central nervous system (CNS) in many ways eliciting various neurological disorders generally from headaches, ataxia, mental confusion to severe respiratory distress, and eventually death. The different portals of access of SARS-CoV-2 into the CNS, i.e., hematogenous and neuronal retrograde motion, increase the incidence of neurological manifestations and poor disease prognosis. A new idea regarding neuro-invasion of SARS-CoV-2, i.e., its potential of latency and possible later reactivation and complications, has been presented. This aims to direct the attention towards research to determine the impact range of latency and reactivation of SARS-CoV-2. Keeping in view, these aspects finding SARS-Cov-2 in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) by reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) and complete CSF examination should be employed. </Text>

Background: Congenital Insensitivity to Pain (CIPA), otherwise known as Hereditary Sensory and Autonomic Neuropathy Type IV (HSAN IV), is a rarely occurring autosomal recessive disorder encompassed by a group of hereditary and sensory autonomic neuropathies, which was initially described as pure analgesia present congenitally. Its clinical manifestation includes recurrent episodes of infections with unexplained behavior, anhidrosis, mental retardation, and damage to oral structures.  Case Presentation: In this case report, we have demonstrated the signs and symptoms of a 7-year-old boy presented to the pediatric out-patient department of Memon Medical Institute Hospital with complaints of multiple fluid-filled blisters since the age of 1 year. He had a history of multiple hospital admissions due to infections, where he was diagnosed with a case of CIPA.  Management & Results: Since the diagnosis of this medical condition, the child has undergone multiple debridements of his wound and amputations. The treatment plan was aimed to manage the blisters, prevent self-injuries, and treat orthopedic problems by regular dermal and orthopedic follow-ups.  Conclusion: There is no cure for CIPA patients, the families that have CIPA patients must undergo prenatal testing and screening to prevent the birth of another affected child. </Text> </OtherText> <PublicationDate>20211025</PublicationDate>

concern not only in Pakistan but also worldwide. Foodborne illness remains prevalent throughout Pakistan because of the lack of informed risks and safe handling practices of the food preparers and handlers at each food chain point. It causes food spoilage that results in substantial economic losses to both producers (farmers) and consumers. Therefore, this article aimed to review the microbial load of meat, dairy, and seafood products and how the microbial load/population's shelf life and food quality can be affected.  Methodology: During this experimental study, a total 127 samples were collected directly from different industries and included. Total bacterial count (TBC), total coliform count (TCC), fecal coliform count (FCC) and detection of Salmonella were done to check the quality of foods of animal origin collected from the different food industries from 2019 to 2020 and Pakistan standard (P.S.) of food quality was used to compare the results.  Results: Among 127 analyzed samples, 27 (34.29%) samples were found contaminated with four bacterial parameters, TBC (6.35%), TCC (19%), and FCC (8.89%). At the same time, Salmonella spp were found absent in all of the samples analyzed. Among seven perishable food commodities, the higher percentage of unsatisfactory samples were observed in the chicken meat (1.62%) and beef meat samples (1.5%), while fresh milk was highly contaminated (0.9%) as compared to the powder milk (0.42%), followed by yogurt (0.26%). Shrimp (0.26%) and fish items (0.2%) showed the least percentage of unsatisfactory samples.  Conclusion: The results suggest that a significant quality difference is observed in the food items sold in the central region of Karachi, further representing a vulnerability to human health in terms of bacteriological hazards. Our findings suggest that safety measures should be taken seriously to stay away from possible uncertainties. </Text> </OtherText> <PublicationDate>20211023</PublicationDate> <RelatedWork> <RelationCode>81</RelationCode> <WorkIdentifier> <WorkIDType>01</WorkIDType> <IDValue>1-81</IDValue> </WorkIdentifier> </RelatedWork> <RelatedProduct> <RelationCode>89</RelationCode> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>01</ProductIDType> <IDValue>1-81-755-g744</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> </RelatedProduct> </ContentItem> </DOISerialArticleWork> <DOISerialArticleWork> <NotificationType>06</NotificationType> <DOI>10.29052/IJEHSR.v9.i4.2021.485-490</DOI> <DOIWebsiteLink>https://aeirc-edu.com/ojs14/index.php/IJEHSR/article/view/730</DOIWebsiteLink> <DOIStructuralType>Abstraction</DOIStructuralType> <RegistrantName>Advance Educational Institute and Research Center</RegistrantName> <RegistrationAuthority>mEDRA</RegistrationAuthority> <WorkIdentifier> <WorkIDType>01</WorkIDType> <IDValue>1-81-730</IDValue> </WorkIdentifier> <SerialPublication> <SerialWork> <Title textformat="00" language="eng"> <TitleType>01</TitleType> <TitleText>International Journal of Endorsing Health Science Research (IJEHSR)</TitleText> </Title> <Publisher> <PublishingRole>01</PublishingRole> <PublisherName>Advance Educational Institute and Research Center</PublisherName> </Publisher> <CountryOfPublication>PK</CountryOfPublication> </SerialWork> <SerialVersion> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>01</ProductIDType> <IDValue>1</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>07</ProductIDType> <IDValue>23103841</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> <ProductForm>JD</ProductForm> <EpubFormat>01</EpubFormat> <EpubFormatDescription>Open Journal Systems (OJS)</EpubFormatDescription> </SerialVersion> <SerialVersion> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>07</ProductIDType> <IDValue>23073748</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> <ProductForm>JB</ProductForm> </SerialVersion> </SerialPublication> <JournalIssue> <JournalVolumeNumber>9</JournalVolumeNumber> <JournalIssueNumber>4</JournalIssueNumber> <JournalIssueDesignation>Vol 9 No 4 (2021): International Journal of Endorsing Health Science Research</JournalIssueDesignation> <JournalIssueDate> <DateFormat>06</DateFormat> <Date>2021</Date> </JournalIssueDate> </JournalIssue> <ContentItem> <SequenceNumber>9</SequenceNumber> <TextItem> <PageRun> <FirstPageNumber>485</FirstPageNumber> <LastPageNumber>490</LastPageNumber> </PageRun> </TextItem> <Title textformat="00" language="eng"> <TitleType>01</TitleType> <TitleText>Risk factors for blood loss in liver resection surgery: An Institutional Review.</TitleText> </Title> <Contributor> <SequenceNumber>1</SequenceNumber> <ContributorRole>A01</ContributorRole> <PersonName>Muhammad Shadab Khan</PersonName> <PersonNameInverted>Khan, Muhammad Shadab</PersonNameInverted> <ProfessionalAffiliation> <Affiliation>Shaukat Khanum Memorial Cancer Hospital and Research Center, Lahore-Pakistan.</Affiliation> </ProfessionalAffiliation> </Contributor> <Contributor> <SequenceNumber>2</SequenceNumber> <ContributorRole>A01</ContributorRole> <PersonName>Muhammad Attaullah Khan</PersonName> <PersonNameInverted>Khan, Muhammad Attaullah</PersonNameInverted> <ProfessionalAffiliation> <Affiliation>Shaukat Khanum Memorial Cancer Hospital and Research Center, Lahore-Pakistan.</Affiliation> </ProfessionalAffiliation> </Contributor> <Contributor> <SequenceNumber>3</SequenceNumber> <ContributorRole>A01</ContributorRole> <PersonName>Ayesha Saba</PersonName> <PersonNameInverted>Saba, Ayesha</PersonNameInverted> <ProfessionalAffiliation> <Affiliation>Agha Khan University Hospital, Karachi-Pakistan.</Affiliation> </ProfessionalAffiliation> </Contributor> <Contributor> <SequenceNumber>4</SequenceNumber> <ContributorRole>A01</ContributorRole> <PersonName>Sana Amir</PersonName> <PersonNameInverted>Amir, Sana</PersonNameInverted> <ProfessionalAffiliation> <Affiliation>Shaukat Khanum Memorial Cancer Hospital and Research Center, Lahore-Pakistan.</Affiliation> </ProfessionalAffiliation> </Contributor> <Contributor> <SequenceNumber>5</SequenceNumber> <ContributorRole>A01</ContributorRole> <PersonName>Abdul Wahid Anwar</PersonName> <PersonNameInverted>Anwar, Abdul Wahid</PersonNameInverted> <ProfessionalAffiliation> <Affiliation>Shaukat Khanum Memorial Cancer Hospital and Research Center, Lahore-Pakistan.</Affiliation> </ProfessionalAffiliation> </Contributor> <Language> <LanguageRole>01</LanguageRole> <LanguageCode>eng</LanguageCode> </Language> <Subject> <SubjectSchemeIdentifier>23</SubjectSchemeIdentifier> <SubjectHeadingText>Hepatocellular Carcinoma, Blood Loss, Cirrhosis, Pringle Technique.</SubjectHeadingText> </Subject> <OtherText> <TextTypeCode>01</TextTypeCode> <Text textformat="00" language="eng"> Background: Surgical resection of the primary or metastatic liver lesions is the treatment of choice for patients with resectable tumors. Identifying and managing preoperative and intraoperative risk factors responsible for increased blood loss during liver resection is extremely important. Therefore, the present study aims to identify preoperative and intraoperative risk factors associated with blood loss during liver resection.  Methodology: A retrospective cross-sectional study was conducted on 72 patients who underwent liver resection for resectable primary and metastatic liver lesions at the Department of Surgical Oncology Hepatobiliary Unit, Shaukat Khanum Memorial Cancer Hospital, and Research Center Lahore. The study continued from October 2014 to July 2017, and data were collected from hospital records, including demographic, biochemical, and perioperative variables.  Results: Out of the total 38 patients, 52.8% were female, with a mean age of 40.59 ± 21.66 years at the time of surgery. The results after multivariate analysis conclude two independent risk factors responsible for significant blood loss of more than 1000 milliliters during liver resection. These factors include liver cirrhosis, where the odds ratio is 7.96 with 95% CI (1.00-63.31) and P-value of 0.05 and operative time of 390 minutes where odds ratio is 8.94 with 95% CI (2.28-36.48) and P-value of 0.02.  Conclusion: The risk factors associated with increased intraoperative blood loss during liver resections in our population are mainly associated with preoperative parameters, including positive viral serology and radiologically proven liver cirrhosis. In contrast, intraoperative factors were intravenous fluid administration and operative time. </Text> </OtherText> <PublicationDate>20211023</PublicationDate> <RelatedWork> <RelationCode>81</RelationCode> <WorkIdentifier> <WorkIDType>01</WorkIDType> <IDValue>1-81</IDValue> </WorkIdentifier> </RelatedWork> <RelatedProduct> <RelationCode>89</RelationCode> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>01</ProductIDType> <IDValue>1-81-730-g743</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> </RelatedProduct> </ContentItem> </DOISerialArticleWork> <DOISerialArticleWork> <NotificationType>06</NotificationType> <DOI>10.29052/IJEHSR.v9.i4.2021.541-554</DOI> <DOIWebsiteLink>https://aeirc-edu.com/ojs14/index.php/IJEHSR/article/view/708</DOIWebsiteLink> <DOIStructuralType>Abstraction</DOIStructuralType> <RegistrantName>Advance Educational Institute and Research Center</RegistrantName> <RegistrationAuthority>mEDRA</RegistrationAuthority> <WorkIdentifier> <WorkIDType>01</WorkIDType> <IDValue>1-81-708</IDValue> </WorkIdentifier> <SerialPublication> <SerialWork> <Title textformat="00" language="eng"> <TitleType>01</TitleType> <TitleText>International Journal of Endorsing Health Science Research (IJEHSR)</TitleText> </Title> <Publisher> <PublishingRole>01</PublishingRole> <PublisherName>Advance Educational Institute and Research Center</PublisherName> </Publisher> <CountryOfPublication>PK</CountryOfPublication> </SerialWork> <SerialVersion> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>01</ProductIDType> <IDValue>1</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>07</ProductIDType> <IDValue>23103841</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> <ProductForm>JD</ProductForm> <EpubFormat>01</EpubFormat> <EpubFormatDescription>Open Journal Systems (OJS)</EpubFormatDescription> </SerialVersion> <SerialVersion> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>07</ProductIDType> <IDValue>23073748</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> <ProductForm>JB</ProductForm> </SerialVersion> </SerialPublication> <JournalIssue> <JournalVolumeNumber>9</JournalVolumeNumber> <JournalIssueNumber>4</JournalIssueNumber> <JournalIssueDesignation>Vol 9 No 4 (2021): International Journal of Endorsing Health Science Research</JournalIssueDesignation> <JournalIssueDate> <DateFormat>06</DateFormat> <Date>2021</Date> </JournalIssueDate> </JournalIssue> <ContentItem> <SequenceNumber>1</SequenceNumber> <TextItem> <PageRun> <FirstPageNumber>541</FirstPageNumber> <LastPageNumber>554</LastPageNumber> </PageRun> </TextItem> <Title textformat="00" language="eng"> <TitleType>01</TitleType> <TitleText>Effects of physiotherapy in the management of cancer-related pain and fatigue: A systematic review of randomized controlled trials.</TitleText> </Title> <Contributor> <SequenceNumber>1</SequenceNumber> <ContributorRole>A01</ContributorRole> <PersonName>Hajra Ameer Shaikh</PersonName> <PersonNameInverted>Shaikh, Hajra Ameer</PersonNameInverted> <ProfessionalAffiliation> <Affiliation>Department of Physical Therapy and Rehabilitation Sciences, Indus University, Karachi-Pakistan.</Affiliation> </ProfessionalAffiliation> </Contributor> <Contributor> <SequenceNumber>2</SequenceNumber> <ContributorRole>A01</ContributorRole> <PersonName>Okasha Anjum</PersonName> <PersonNameInverted>Anjum, Okasha</PersonNameInverted> <ProfessionalAffiliation> <Affiliation>Department of Physical Therapy and Rehabilitation Sciences, Indus University, Karachi-Pakistan.</Affiliation> </ProfessionalAffiliation> </Contributor> <Contributor> <SequenceNumber>3</SequenceNumber> <ContributorRole>A01</ContributorRole> <PersonName>Kiran Iqbal</PersonName> <PersonNameInverted>Iqbal, Kiran</PersonNameInverted> <ProfessionalAffiliation> <Affiliation>Department of Physical Therapy and Rehabilitation Sciences, University of Sialkot, Sialkot-Pakistan.</Affiliation> </ProfessionalAffiliation> </Contributor> <Contributor> <SequenceNumber>4</SequenceNumber> <ContributorRole>A01</ContributorRole> <PersonName>Syeda Wajeeha Raza Zaidi</PersonName> <PersonNameInverted>Zaidi, Syeda Wajeeha Raza</PersonNameInverted> <ProfessionalAffiliation> <Affiliation>Department of Physical Therapy and Rehabilitation Sciences, Indus University, Karachi-Pakistan.</Affiliation> </ProfessionalAffiliation> </Contributor> <Language> <LanguageRole>01</LanguageRole> <LanguageCode>eng</LanguageCode> </Language> <Subject> <SubjectSchemeIdentifier>23</SubjectSchemeIdentifier> <SubjectHeadingText>Cancer Patients, Cancer-Related Fatigue, Cancer-Related Pain, Exercise, Physiotherapy Management.</SubjectHeadingText> </Subject> <OtherText> <TextTypeCode>01</TextTypeCode> <Text textformat="00" language="eng"> Background: Cancer is ranked as the 2nd common deadliest disorder worldwide, and the growing incidence demands updating and optimizing the treatment strategies for cancer survivors. However, evidence regarding this area is scarce; therefore, this systematic review aimed to evaluate the effects of Physiotherapy (PT) in managing cancer-related pain and fatigue.  Methodology: Electronic search conducted utilizing Google Scholar, Embase.com, Cochrane CENTRAL via Wiley, Web of Science Core Collection, MEDLINE via Ovid, PEDro, and PubMed. Randomized controlled trials published from 2014 to April 2021 analyzing the effects of PT approaches for cancer-related pain and/or fatigue management in adult cancer patients were included in the review. Sixteen eligible trials were evaluated, of which eight trials addressed Cancer-Related Pain (CRP) while others addressed Cancer-Related Fatigue (CRF). The risks of bias and trials credibility were analyzed via the Cochrane tool to assess bias risk.  Results: Strong evidence favors the effectiveness of various PT approaches mainly, aerobic and resistance exercises for CRF and CRP management. However, endurance exercises, high-intensity interval training, and myofascial release were effective in CRF management. In contrast, Xbox Kinect-based games, stretching, lymphatic drainage, and passive mobilization effectively reduced CRF.  Conclusion: Large body of evidence supports the effectiveness of PT exercises mainly, aerobic and resistance exercises, in cancer-associated pain and fatigue management. Hence exercises prescriptions should be implemented in the treatment plan of cancer patients. </Text> </OtherText> <PublicationDate>20211020</PublicationDate> <RelatedWork> <RelationCode>81</RelationCode> <WorkIdentifier> <WorkIDType>01</WorkIDType> <IDValue>1-81</IDValue> </WorkIdentifier> </RelatedWork> <RelatedProduct> <RelationCode>89</RelationCode> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>01</ProductIDType> <IDValue>1-81-708-g742</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> </RelatedProduct> </ContentItem> </DOISerialArticleWork> <DOISerialArticleWork> <NotificationType>06</NotificationType> <DOI>10.29052/IJEHSR.v9.i4.2021.525-528</DOI> <DOIWebsiteLink>https://aeirc-edu.com/ojs14/index.php/IJEHSR/article/view/729</DOIWebsiteLink> <DOIStructuralType>Abstraction</DOIStructuralType> <RegistrantName>Advance Educational Institute and Research Center</RegistrantName> <RegistrationAuthority>mEDRA</RegistrationAuthority> <WorkIdentifier> <WorkIDType>01</WorkIDType> <IDValue>1-81-729</IDValue> </WorkIdentifier> <SerialPublication> <SerialWork> <Title textformat="00" language="eng"> <TitleType>01</TitleType> <TitleText>International Journal of Endorsing Health Science Research (IJEHSR)</TitleText> </Title> <Publisher> <PublishingRole>01</PublishingRole> <PublisherName>Advance Educational Institute and Research Center</PublisherName> </Publisher> <CountryOfPublication>PK</CountryOfPublication> </SerialWork> <SerialVersion> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>01</ProductIDType> <IDValue>1</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>07</ProductIDType> <IDValue>23103841</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> <ProductForm>JD</ProductForm> <EpubFormat>01</EpubFormat> <EpubFormatDescription>Open Journal Systems (OJS)</EpubFormatDescription> </SerialVersion> <SerialVersion> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>07</ProductIDType> <IDValue>23073748</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> <ProductForm>JB</ProductForm> </SerialVersion> </SerialPublication> <JournalIssue> <JournalVolumeNumber>9</JournalVolumeNumber> <JournalIssueNumber>4</JournalIssueNumber> <JournalIssueDesignation>Vol 9 No 4 (2021): International Journal of Endorsing Health Science Research</JournalIssueDesignation> <JournalIssueDate> <DateFormat>06</DateFormat> <Date>2021</Date> </JournalIssueDate> </JournalIssue> <ContentItem> <SequenceNumber>1</SequenceNumber> <TextItem> <PageRun> <FirstPageNumber>525</FirstPageNumber> <LastPageNumber>528</LastPageNumber> </PageRun> </TextItem> <Title textformat="00" language="eng"> <TitleType>01</TitleType> <TitleText>Tourniquet technique to reduce hemorrhage in placenta accreta to allow transportation of patient to tertiary care hospital.</TitleText> </Title> <Contributor> <SequenceNumber>1</SequenceNumber> <ContributorRole>A01</ContributorRole> <PersonName>Sidra Ahmed</PersonName> <PersonNameInverted>Ahmed, Sidra</PersonNameInverted> <ProfessionalAffiliation> <Affiliation>Koohi Goth Women Hospital, Karachi-Pakistan.</Affiliation> </ProfessionalAffiliation> </Contributor> <Contributor> <SequenceNumber>2</SequenceNumber> <ContributorRole>A01</ContributorRole> <PersonName>Zehra Somjee</PersonName> <PersonNameInverted>Somjee, Zehra</PersonNameInverted> <ProfessionalAffiliation> <Affiliation>Koohi Goth Women Hospital, Karachi-Pakistan.</Affiliation> </ProfessionalAffiliation> </Contributor> <Contributor> <SequenceNumber>3</SequenceNumber> <ContributorRole>A01</ContributorRole> <PersonName>Noorulain Ali</PersonName> <PersonNameInverted>Ali, Noorulain</PersonNameInverted> <ProfessionalAffiliation> <Affiliation>Koohi Goth Women Hospital, Karachi-Pakistan.</Affiliation> </ProfessionalAffiliation> </Contributor> <Contributor> <SequenceNumber>4</SequenceNumber> <ContributorRole>A01</ContributorRole> <PersonName>Shershah Syed</PersonName> <PersonNameInverted>Syed, Shershah</PersonNameInverted> <ProfessionalAffiliation> <Affiliation>Koohi Goth Women Hospital, Karachi-Pakistan.</Affiliation> </ProfessionalAffiliation> </Contributor> <Contributor> <SequenceNumber>5</SequenceNumber> <ContributorRole>A01</ContributorRole> <PersonName>Shaheen Zafar</PersonName> <PersonNameInverted>Zafar, Shaheen</PersonNameInverted> <ProfessionalAffiliation> <Affiliation>Koohi Goth Women Hospital, Karachi-Pakistan.</Affiliation> </ProfessionalAffiliation> </Contributor> <Language> <LanguageRole>01</LanguageRole> <LanguageCode>eng</LanguageCode> </Language> <Subject> <SubjectSchemeIdentifier>23</SubjectSchemeIdentifier> <SubjectHeadingText>Placenta Accreta, Cesarean Hysterectomy, Tourniquet, Hemorrhage.</SubjectHeadingText> </Subject> <OtherText> <TextTypeCode>01</TextTypeCode> <Text textformat="00" language="eng"> Background: Placenta accreta is an obstetrical complication that can result in life-threatening hemorrhage if not managed adequately and cause high maternal morbidity. Cesarean hysterectomy is an effective method to control intra-operative bleeding.  Case Presentation: We present a case of placenta accreta that was diagnosed intra-operatively in secondary care hospital. Due to the lack of a multidisciplinary team, bleeding was temporarily controlled by tying a tourniquet using a Foley catheter around the lower uterine segment with the tourniquet left in situ.  Management & Results: The patient was shifted to a tertiary care hospital. This novel tourniquet technique bought time to transport the patient, arrange for a multidisciplinary team needed for this patient's management, and reduce hemorrhage, which directly determined maternal outcome.  Conclusion: In this case report, we present that using a Foley catheter as a simple cervical tourniquet can effectively reduce hemorrhage, particularly in the case of blood loss originating from the placenta. </Text> </OtherText> <PublicationDate>20211019</PublicationDate> <RelatedWork> <RelationCode>81</RelationCode> <WorkIdentifier> <WorkIDType>01</WorkIDType>

organophosphorus compound to which humans are exposed through contamination of food and water. Flavonoids in Morus nigra exhibit a wide range of antioxidant, antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory, anti-cancer, anti-radiation properties and have a protective action against oxidative damage and hepatoprotective effects. The study's objective was to evaluate the effects of black mulberry (Morus nigra) extract against diazinon-induced hepatotoxicity in albino Wistar rats.  Methodology: A quasi-experimental study was conducted from August 2019 to January 2020 at the Department of Pathology, Isra University, Hyderabad, Pakistan. Under standard colony conditions, thirty-six healthy male albino Wistar rats weighing between 200 and 300 grams were randomly divided equally into three groups: Group-1 (Control), Group-2 (given 60 mg/kg Diazinon daily for 4 weeks), Group-3 (administered Diazinon 60 mg/kg with 500 mg/kg of Morus nigra extract daily for 4 weeks through orogastric intubation). Hepatic tissue of all groups was observed under the light microscope. At the same time, hepatic serum markers were also analyzed.  Results: A statistically significant decline in the bodyweight and rise in absolute liver weight of group-3 compared with groups-1 and group-2 (p<0.05). Co-administration of Morus nigra significantly lowered serum AST ad ALT levels. Significant histopathological derangement was observed in group-2 hepatic tissues while group-3 rats hepatic tissues had minimal changes and near-normal hepatic parenchyma.  Conclusion: Morus nigra leaf extract has hepatoprotective effects against Diazinon-induced hepatotoxicity in male albino Wistar rats. </Text> </OtherText> <PublicationDate>20211019</PublicationDate> <RelatedWork>

population; it has an economic impact due to the consumption of health expenses in its treatment and rehabilitation. Backache interferes with daily activities of life without discriminating age, gender or race, etc. Our study aimed to determine the role of vitamin B-12 in relieving chronic low backache.  Methodology: A comparative study was conducted at Baqai University and Fatima Hospital, Karachi, from May 2019 to April 2020. A total of 496 patients were enrolled and divided into two groups; group I was treated with vitamin B-12 (n=256), and group II (n=240) did not receive vitamin B-12 treatment. Pre-treatment Visual Analog Scale (VAS) score and Oswestry Disability Index (ODI) scores were evaluated. Group II was given calcium supplements and Non-Steroidal Anti-Inflammatory Drugs (NSAIDs) for one month, while group I was given intramuscular injections of vitamin B-12 (500 mcg) on an alternate day for a month along with calcium supplements and NSAIDs.  Results: Pre-treatment mean VAS and ODI scores were 6.68 ± 1.45 and 30.11 ± 12.7, while post-treatment VAS and ODI scores were subsequently 3.50 ± 2.07 and 17.73 ± 12.7, respectively. At the end of treatment, a remarkable decrease in ODI and VAS scores was observed after treatment with vitamin B-12 (p<0.05).  Conclusion: Concurrent use of vitamin B-12 in the treatment of chronic backache had a better impact in relieving backache symptoms than those treated without vitamin B-12. </Text> </OtherText> <PublicationDate>20211012</PublicationDate> <RelatedWork> <RelationCode>81</RelationCode> <WorkIdentifier> <WorkIDType>01</WorkIDType> <IDValue>1-81</IDValue> </WorkIdentifier> </RelatedWork> <RelatedProduct> <RelationCode>89</RelationCode> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>01</ProductIDType> <IDValue>1-81-747-g739</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> </RelatedProduct> </ContentItem> </DOISerialArticleWork> <DOISerialArticleWork> <NotificationType>06</NotificationType> <DOI>10.29052/IJEHSR.v9.i4.2021.426-430</DOI> <DOIWebsiteLink>https://aeirc-edu.com/ojs14/index.php/IJEHSR/article/view/706</DOIWebsiteLink> <DOIStructuralType>Abstraction</DOIStructuralType> <RegistrantName>Advance Educational Institute and Research Center</RegistrantName> <RegistrationAuthority>mEDRA</RegistrationAuthority> <WorkIdentifier> <WorkIDType>01</WorkIDType> <IDValue>1-81-706</IDValue> </WorkIdentifier> <SerialPublication> <SerialWork> <Title textformat="00" language="eng"> <TitleType>01</TitleType> <TitleText>International Journal of Endorsing Health Science Research (IJEHSR)</TitleText> </Title> <Publisher> <PublishingRole>01</PublishingRole> <PublisherName>Advance Educational Institute and Research Center</PublisherName> </Publisher> <CountryOfPublication>PK</CountryOfPublication> </SerialWork> <SerialVersion> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>01</ProductIDType> <IDValue>1</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>07</ProductIDType> <IDValue>23103841</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> <ProductForm>JD</ProductForm> <EpubFormat>01</EpubFormat> <EpubFormatDescription>Open Journal Systems (OJS)</EpubFormatDescription> </SerialVersion> <SerialVersion> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>07</ProductIDType> <IDValue>23073748</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> <ProductForm>JB</ProductForm> </SerialVersion> </SerialPublication> <JournalIssue> <JournalVolumeNumber>9</JournalVolumeNumber> <JournalIssueNumber>4</JournalIssueNumber> <JournalIssueDesignation>Vol 9 No 4 (2021): International Journal of Endorsing Health Science Research</JournalIssueDesignation> <JournalIssueDate> <DateFormat>06</DateFormat> <Date>2021</Date> </JournalIssueDate> </JournalIssue> <ContentItem> <SequenceNumber>1</SequenceNumber> <TextItem> <PageRun> <FirstPageNumber>426</FirstPageNumber> <LastPageNumber>430</LastPageNumber> </PageRun> </TextItem> <Title textformat="00" language="eng"> <TitleType>01</TitleType> <TitleText>COVID-19 immunization phase; Acceptance & understandings about the vaccine.</TitleText> </Title> <Contributor> <SequenceNumber>1</SequenceNumber> <ContributorRole>A01</ContributorRole> <PersonName>Shagufta Nesar</PersonName> <PersonNameInverted>Nesar, Shagufta</PersonNameInverted> <ProfessionalAffiliation> <Affiliation>Jinnah College of Pharmacy, Sohail University, Karachi-Pakistan.</Affiliation> </ProfessionalAffiliation> </Contributor> <Contributor> <SequenceNumber>2</SequenceNumber> <ContributorRole>A01</ContributorRole> <PersonName>Kiran Rafiq</PersonName> <PersonNameInverted>Rafiq, Kiran</PersonNameInverted> <ProfessionalAffiliation> <Affiliation>Institute of Pharmaceutical Sciences, Jinnah Sindh Medical University, Karachi-Pakistan.</Affiliation> </ProfessionalAffiliation> </Contributor> <Contributor> <SequenceNumber>3</SequenceNumber> <ContributorRole>A01</ContributorRole> <PersonName>Shaheen Parveen</PersonName> <PersonNameInverted>Parveen, Shaheen</PersonNameInverted> <ProfessionalAffiliation> <Affiliation>Institute of Pharmaceutical Sciences, Jinnah Sindh Medical University, Karachi-Pakistan</Affiliation> </ProfessionalAffiliation> </Contributor> <Contributor> <SequenceNumber>4</SequenceNumber> <ContributorRole>A01</ContributorRole> <PersonName>Tayabba Mumtaz</PersonName> <PersonNameInverted>Mumtaz, Tayabba</PersonNameInverted> <ProfessionalAffiliation> <Affiliation>Faculty of Pharmacy, Zia-ud-Din University, Karachi-Pakistan.</Affiliation> </ProfessionalAffiliation> </Contributor> <Language> <LanguageRole>01</LanguageRole> <LanguageCode>eng</LanguageCode> </Language> <Subject> <SubjectSchemeIdentifier>23</SubjectSchemeIdentifier> <SubjectHeadingText>Corona Vaccine, Pandemic, Non-pharmaceutical Interventions, Karachi.</SubjectHeadingText> </Subject> <OtherText> <TextTypeCode>01</TextTypeCode> <Text textformat="00" language="eng"> Background: In the current scenario of global immunization against Coronavirus, people do have an uncertain thought regarding the efficacy and effects of the vaccine. The purpose of this study was to assess the knowledge, awareness, and acceptability of vaccines among the general population of Karachi.  Methodology: For the purpose of the study, literature focusing on the knowledge, awareness, and acceptance regarding COVID-19 immunization was reviewed. Google Scholar, PubMed, Research Gate, and Scopus were searched using the keywords COVID-19, non-pharmaceutical Interventions, immunization-related knowledge, awareness, and acceptance. A pilot study was designed to demonstrate the COVID-19 immunization understanding and acceptability.  Results: Low rate of acceptability for getting vaccinated is observed in the local population. Most perceptions indicated vaccines to be not healthy, harmful, and life-threatening.  Conclusion: The current situation of fast-spreading of the virus and the non-acceptance of vaccines is highly alarming for community and health authorities and demands strong health care measures and campaigns to control the disaster. </Text> </OtherText> <PublicationDate>20211011</PublicationDate>

Background: Neurobiology of schizophrenia involves impairment of glutamatergic neurotransmission. In this context, polymorphism in glutamate Ionotropic receptor a-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4-propionic acid (AMPA) type subunit 1 encoded by Glutamate Ionotropic Receptor AMPA Type Subunit 1 Gene (GRIA), (rs1127386, G/A) can be considered as a substantial contributor in pathogenesis of schizophrenia. Therefore, a pilot study was planned to find out if the single nucleotide polymorphism of GRIA (rs1127386, G/A) is a risk factor for schizophrenia in the population of Pakistan. It maps at 5q33, a schizophrenia susceptible locus as per genome-wide association studies.  Methodology: Following Diagnostic and Statistical Manual 5 (DSM 5) criteria guidelines, 50 schizophrenia cases were incorporated in this case-control study and 51 controls, individuals without any psychiatric illness. The sternness of illness was figured out using positive and negative syndrome scale score (PANSS) score. Genomic DNA was extracted from blood, and further analysis was done on gel electrophoresis after conducting ARMS (amplification refractory mutation system) PCR. Frequencies of reported genotype and allele within both groups were determined using the chi-square test.  Results: Statistically significant difference was not found in genotype and allele frequencies of (rs1127386, G/A) (p>0.05) between cases and controls in the study population. The severity status of the disease was also independent of the polymorphism (p>0.05).  Conclusion: This pilot study specifies that polymorphism rs1127386 is not a risk factor for schizophrenia, at least in the Pakistani population. </Text> </OtherText> <PublicationDate>20211011</PublicationDate> <RelatedWork> <RelationCode>81</RelationCode> <WorkIdentifier> <WorkIDType>01</WorkIDType> <IDValue>1-81</IDValue> </WorkIdentifier> </RelatedWork> <RelatedProduct> <RelationCode>89</RelationCode> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>01</ProductIDType> <IDValue>1-81-683-g738</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> </RelatedProduct> </ContentItem> </DOISerialArticleWork> <DOISerialArticleWork> <NotificationType>06</NotificationType> <DOI>10.29052/IJEHSR.v9.i4.2021.448-458</DOI> <DOIWebsiteLink>https://aeirc-edu.com/ojs14/index.php/IJEHSR/article/view/656</DOIWebsiteLink> <DOIStructuralType>Abstraction</DOIStructuralType> <RegistrantName>Advance Educational Institute and Research Center</RegistrantName> <RegistrationAuthority>mEDRA</RegistrationAuthority> <WorkIdentifier> <WorkIDType>01</WorkIDType> <IDValue>1-81-656</IDValue> </WorkIdentifier> <SerialPublication> <SerialWork> <Title textformat="00" language="eng"> <TitleType>01</TitleType> <TitleText>International Journal of Endorsing Health Science Research (IJEHSR)</TitleText> </Title> <Publisher> <PublishingRole>01</PublishingRole> <PublisherName>Advance Educational Institute and Research Center</PublisherName> </Publisher> <CountryOfPublication>PK</CountryOfPublication> </SerialWork> <SerialVersion> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>01</ProductIDType> <IDValue>1</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>07</ProductIDType> <IDValue>23103841</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> <ProductForm>JD</ProductForm> <EpubFormat>01</EpubFormat> <EpubFormatDescription>Open Journal Systems (OJS)</EpubFormatDescription> </SerialVersion> <SerialVersion> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>07</ProductIDType> <IDValue>23073748</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> <ProductForm>JB</ProductForm> </SerialVersion> </SerialPublication> <JournalIssue> <JournalVolumeNumber>9</JournalVolumeNumber> <JournalIssueNumber>4</JournalIssueNumber> <JournalIssueDesignation>Vol 9 No 4 (2021): International Journal of Endorsing Health Science Research</JournalIssueDesignation> <JournalIssueDate> <DateFormat>06</DateFormat> <Date>2021</Date> </JournalIssueDate> </JournalIssue> <ContentItem> <SequenceNumber>4</SequenceNumber> <TextItem> <PageRun> <FirstPageNumber>448</FirstPageNumber> <LastPageNumber>458</LastPageNumber> </PageRun> </TextItem> <Title textformat="00" language="eng"> <TitleType>01</TitleType> <TitleText>Epidemiological assessment of mutational capabilities in common seasonal viruses.</TitleText> </Title> <Contributor> <SequenceNumber>1</SequenceNumber> <ContributorRole>A01</ContributorRole> <PersonName>Syeda Tooba Burney</PersonName> <PersonNameInverted>Burney, Syeda Tooba</PersonNameInverted> <ProfessionalAffiliation> <Affiliation>Department of Biomedical Engineering, NED University of Engineering and Technology, Karachi-Pakistan.</Affiliation> </ProfessionalAffiliation> </Contributor> <Contributor> <SequenceNumber>2</SequenceNumber> <ContributorRole>A01</ContributorRole> <PersonName>Nisar Ahmed Shar</PersonName> <PersonNameInverted>Shar, Nisar Ahmed</PersonNameInverted> <ProfessionalAffiliation> <Affiliation>National Center in Big Data & Cloud Computing, NED University of Engineering and Technology, Karachi-Pakistan.</Affiliation> </ProfessionalAffiliation> </Contributor> <Language> <LanguageRole>01</LanguageRole> <LanguageCode>eng</LanguageCode> </Language> <Subject> <SubjectSchemeIdentifier>23</SubjectSchemeIdentifier> <SubjectHeadingText>Computational Models, Genetic Mutations, Vaccine Strains, Viral Outbreak.</SubjectHeadingText> </Subject> <OtherText> <TextTypeCode>01</TextTypeCode> <Text textformat="00" language="eng"> Background: Influenza vaccine composition is reviewed prior to every flu season since influenza viruses frequently evolve through antigenic variations. Vaccine strains are selected in expectation of the upcoming influenza season to allow sufficient time for production. The aim of the present study is to assess the use of computational models for predicting the evolution of influenza based on the association of genetic mutations and antigenic traits of circulating viruses that may apprise vaccine strain assortment decisions.  Methodology: This study also focuses on the correlation of viruses with spread rate using statistical methods. For this method, we have worked on four different viruses Influenza, Ebola, Measles and Dengue. The year-wise mutation rate was correlated with the epidemiological data to see the impact of mutations on the disease spread.  Results: We highlight the efficiency of this approach by analyzing the mutation rate and correlating it with its spread rate to find out either mutation in viruses causes disease spread or not. Our study identified mutations in viruses get high before the outbreak of disease through which we can assess the upcoming outbreak. We can set a threshold value for nucleotide differences that can predict the next outbreak of viral disease.  Conclusion: The concept of correlation between the genomic data and epidemic spread leads to the research analysis that mutations do not follow any pattern. Though most of the mutations are random. Our research concluded that some mutations may suppress the virus outbreak, and some mutate to become more resistant than the existing strain that causes an outbreak. </Text> </OtherText>

Functional Outcome, Distal Femoral Locking Compression Plate, Neer’s Score.</SubjectHeadingText> </Subject> <OtherText> <TextTypeCode>01</TextTypeCode> <Text textformat="00" language="eng"> Background: Management of distal femoral fractures remains a real challenge due to the involvement of unique and vital anatomical structures. These are usually treated with operative measures. Distal femoral locking compression plate (DF-LCP) has gained popularity due to favorable biological insertion and minimal periosteal damage, but locally little is known about it. Therefore, the present study aimed to identify the functional outcomes after fixation of distal femoral fractures with DF-LCP.  Methodology: This prospective cohort study, including 21 patients with distal femoral fractures, was conducted at Abbasi Shaheed Hospital from Jan 1, 2017, to Dec 31, 2018. All enrolled patients were treated with DF-LCP. The postoperative clinical and radiological outcomes were evaluated for one year. The data were statistically analyzed using SPSS version 22.0.  Results: There were 21 patients with distal femur fractures with a mean age of 46.6 ± 19.2 years. The majority of the fractures were due to road traffic accidents (RTA), i.e., 57.1%, followed by ground-level fall (33.3%). The mean time for fracture union was 20.2 ± 11.1 weeks, and the mean range of motion of the knee was 108.5 ± 18.5º (at one-year follow-up). The complications were minimal; superficial infection and stiffness of knee joint were observed in 2 patients each while there was 1 case each of non-union, delayed union, and implant failure.  Conclusion: DF-LCP is an effective treatment for distal femoral fractures as it permits stable fixation and early mobilization. Satisfactory to excellent functional and radiological outcomes were achieved. </Text> </OtherText> <PublicationDate>20210928</PublicationDate> <RelatedWork> <RelationCode>81</RelationCode>

performance of the Simplified Acute Physiology Score III (SAPS III) and sequential organ failure assessment (SOFA) score in predicting mortality among critically ill ICU patients.  Methodology: A cross-sectional study was conducted from January 2019 to December 2019, including 162 patients admitted to the medical intensive care unit (ICU) of PIMS, Islamabad. The SOFA and SAPS III scores were calculated for all patients on admission. Outcome parameters included death or discharge from the hospital and disability. The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was constructed for the studied models, and the scores were correlated with mortality.  Results: The overall mortality rate in the studied population was 46.9%. The mean SAPS III and SOFA scores were 55.26±18.46 and 14.41±5.67, respectively. The area under the ROC curve (aROC) for the SAPS III was 0.71 at a cut-off value of 43.5, whereas the aROC for SOFA was 0.64 at a cut-off score of 12.5. The ROC curve for predicting hospital mortality exhibited that both SAPS III and SOFA scores were sensitive predictors of mortality, given SAPS III had relatively better prediction (85%) compared to SOFA (76%).  Conclusion: It is concluded that SAPS III and SOFA scores are sensitive predictors of mortality; however, SAPs score is better at predicting mortality than SOFA score.  </Text>

Background: Coronary artery diseases are among the most challenging diseases in this era. Improper dietary habits and sedentary lifestyles are considered as foundation stones for metabolic disorders, including hyperlipidemia, the leading cause of coronary artery diseases and hypertension. This experiment was designed to study the dose-dependent effect of ginseng on high fat diet induced hyperlipidemia in animal models. Methodology: This experimental study was conducted at Dow University of Health Sciences, including 50 male Albino Wistar rats. The rats were randomly divided into 5 groups of 10 animals each. Group 1 was on a normal balanced diet; group 2 was on a high fat diet (HFD), group 3 was on HFD plus ginsenoside 100 mg/kg body wt, group 4 was on HFD plus ginsenoside 200 mg/kg body wt, group 5 was on HFD plus ginsenoside 400 mg/kg body wt. Animals were sacrificed after 12 weeks; blood was drawn then sent to DDRRL for lipid profile. Results: The results revealed that HFD increases body fats, weight increases from initial weight to 27.53% in obese control group 2 while after treating with ginsenoside weight reduced to 11.6%. Lipids levels in the blood; in the obese control group, mean triglyceride level increases from 45 mg/dl to 128.50 mg/dl, mean cholesterol level from 56.3 mg/dl to 106.2 mg/dl and low-density lipoprotein (LDL) is increased from 6 to 11.9 mg/dl. While concurrent administration of ginseng root extract (ginsenoside) reduces the Lipid levels in blood according to the dosage of ginseng root extract, the mean triglyceride level in group 4 is reduced to 46.10 mg/dl from 128.50 mg/dl. The mean cholesterol level in group 4 is reduced to 400 mg/dl from 106.2 mg/dl. LDL is reduced in group 4 to 7.5 mg/dl from 11.9 mg/dl. Conclusion: This study provides evidence that Ginsenoside has an anti-hyperlipidemic effect, so it might be helpful in preventing coronary artery disease. </Text> </OtherText> <PublicationDate>20210925</PublicationDate> <RelatedWork> <RelationCode>81</RelationCode> <WorkIdentifier> <WorkIDType>01</WorkIDType> <IDValue>1-81</IDValue> </WorkIdentifier> </RelatedWork> <RelatedProduct> <RelationCode>89</RelationCode> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>01</ProductIDType> <IDValue>1-81-698-g730</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> </RelatedProduct> </ContentItem> </DOISerialArticleWork> <DOISerialArticleWork> <NotificationType>06</NotificationType> <DOI>10.29052/IJEHSR.v9.i4.2021.459-465</DOI> <DOIWebsiteLink>https://aeirc-edu.com/ojs14/index.php/IJEHSR/article/view/629</DOIWebsiteLink> <DOIStructuralType>Abstraction</DOIStructuralType> <RegistrantName>Advance Educational Institute and Research Center</RegistrantName> <RegistrationAuthority>mEDRA</RegistrationAuthority> <WorkIdentifier> <WorkIDType>01</WorkIDType> <IDValue>1-81-629</IDValue> </WorkIdentifier> <SerialPublication> <SerialWork> <Title textformat="00" language="eng"> <TitleType>01</TitleType> <TitleText>International Journal of Endorsing Health Science Research (IJEHSR)</TitleText> </Title> <Publisher> <PublishingRole>01</PublishingRole> <PublisherName>Advance Educational Institute and Research Center</PublisherName> </Publisher> <CountryOfPublication>PK</CountryOfPublication> </SerialWork> <SerialVersion> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>01</ProductIDType> <IDValue>1</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>07</ProductIDType> <IDValue>23103841</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> <ProductForm>JD</ProductForm> <EpubFormat>01</EpubFormat> <EpubFormatDescription>Open Journal Systems (OJS)</EpubFormatDescription> </SerialVersion> <SerialVersion> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>07</ProductIDType> <IDValue>23073748</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> <ProductForm>JB</ProductForm> </SerialVersion> </SerialPublication> <JournalIssue> <JournalVolumeNumber>9</JournalVolumeNumber> <JournalIssueNumber>4</JournalIssueNumber> <JournalIssueDesignation>Vol 9 No 4 (2021): International Journal of Endorsing Health Science Research</JournalIssueDesignation> <JournalIssueDate> <DateFormat>06</DateFormat> <Date>2021</Date> </JournalIssueDate> </JournalIssue> <ContentItem> <SequenceNumber>5</SequenceNumber> <TextItem> <PageRun> <FirstPageNumber>459</FirstPageNumber> <LastPageNumber>465</LastPageNumber> </PageRun> </TextItem> <Title textformat="00" language="eng"> <TitleType>01</TitleType> <TitleText>Assessing the nurse’s knowledge regarding occupational hazards, its pre-disposing and preventive factors.</TitleText> </Title> <Contributor> <SequenceNumber>1</SequenceNumber> <ContributorRole>A01</ContributorRole> <PersonName>Sonia Joseph</PersonName> <PersonNameInverted>Joseph, Sonia</PersonNameInverted> <ProfessionalAffiliation> <Affiliation>Ziauddin University, Karachi-Pakistan.</Affiliation> </ProfessionalAffiliation> </Contributor> <Contributor> <SequenceNumber>2</SequenceNumber> <ContributorRole>A01</ContributorRole> <PersonName>Alia Nasir</PersonName> <PersonNameInverted>Nasir, Alia</PersonNameInverted> <ProfessionalAffiliation> <Affiliation>Hamdard University, Karachi-Pakistan.</Affiliation> </ProfessionalAffiliation> </Contributor> <Contributor> <SequenceNumber>3</SequenceNumber> <ContributorRole>A01</ContributorRole> <PersonName>Amber Hussain</PersonName> <PersonNameInverted>Hussain, Amber</PersonNameInverted> <ProfessionalAffiliation> <Affiliation>Dow University of Health Sciences, Karachi-Pakistan.</Affiliation> </ProfessionalAffiliation> </Contributor> <Language> <LanguageRole>01</LanguageRole> <LanguageCode>eng</LanguageCode> </Language> <Subject> <SubjectSchemeIdentifier>23</SubjectSchemeIdentifier> <SubjectHeadingText>Occupational Health Hazards, Nurses, Knowledge, Prevention of Hazards, Pre-disposing Factors of Hazards.</SubjectHeadingText> </Subject> <OtherText> <TextTypeCode>01</TextTypeCode> <Text textformat="00" language="eng"> Background: Nurses are an essential part of the healthcare team and require sound knowledge, safety, and protection from occupational health hazards they encounter at work. Therefore, this study aimed to assess the nurse's knowledge regarding occupational hazards, their pre-disposing, and preventive factors.  Methodology: A descriptive cross-sectional study was conducted among nurses working in surgical, general, ENT, ICU, and gyne ward of the Ziauddin and Civil hospital located in Karachi, Pakistan. A total of 157 registered nurses with a minimum of 6 months of work experience with a valid PNC license were included in the study. Systematic random sampling was used to select participants for the research. The knowledge regarding occupational hazards, pre-disposing factors, and preventive measures were recorded using a structured questionnaire.  Results: Among 157 participants, the highest occurring occupational hazard was neck and back pain, 52.9%. The assessment of pre-disposing factors to occupational hazards revealed that 70.1% of nurses distinguished lack of adequate protective aids and equipment as one of the most common reasons for the occupational hazards. However, it is revealed by 77.7% of participants that proper training and retraining on safety measures, provision of protective aids and equipment could be possible ways of preventing occupational hazards.  Conclusion: It is concluded that occupational health hazards are prevalent among nursing professionals, which can be reduced through owing responsibility, gaining appropriate knowledge and skills, warrant precautionary actions for avoidance to ensure their own and others' health and well-being. </Text> </OtherText> <PublicationDate>20210922</PublicationDate> <RelatedWork>

language="eng"> Background: Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) has a premier role in detecting rectal cancer and is considered superior for diagnosing tumour recurrences. It is the modality of choice by which patients with total abdominal perineal (AP) resection can be fully evaluated. This study aimed to evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of MRI in the detection of rectal carcinoma in suspected cases, keeping histopathology as a gold standard.  Methodology: A descriptive cross-sectional study was conducted in the radiology department of Dow University of Health Sciences, Civil Hospital, Karachi, from 19th May to 18th November 2018. A total of 181 patients with a history of bleeding per rectum, altered bowel habits and abdominal pain were included. High-resolution 2D T2-weighted fast spin-echo sequences in the sagittal, axial and coronal planes were taken. Patients were followed for histopathology reports. The diagnostic accuracy of MRI for rectal carcinoma was calculated in terms of diagnostic accuracy, sensitivity, specificity, using histopathology as a gold standard.  Results: There were 63% male and 37% female patients. The mean symptoms duration was 60.61 ± 7.18 weeks. 64.1% were presented with bleeding per rectum, 52.5% with altered bowel habits and 31.5% with abdominal pain. 35.4% of cases were diagnosed positive by MRI, and 43.6% cases through histopathology. Sensitivity, Specificity, positive predictive value (PPV), negative predictive value (NPV) and accuracy were 85.9%, 79.5%, 69.6%, 91.2%, and 81.76% respectively.  Conclusion: It was concluded that MRI has 85.9% sensitivity, 79.5% specificity, and 81.76% diagnostic accuracy in detecting rectal cancers proving its reliability in detecting both early and recurrent rectal cancers. </Text>

</Subject> <OtherText> <TextTypeCode>01</TextTypeCode> <Text textformat="00" language="eng"> Background: Renal Trauma is one of the significant causes of deterioration, morbidity, and mortality in the pediatric age group around the globe. Firearm injuries are among one of the essential causes for renal trauma. Overall, trauma is the leading cause of death and accounts for approximately 50% of mortality in children over 1 year of age. Therefore, the current study aims to determine the frequency of morbidity, mortality and renal trauma in blunt and firearm accidents in pediatric population.  Methodology: A total of 180 children, aged up to 15 years with blunt and penetrating trauma, including firearm injuries, were enrolled in our study. All patients with in the inclusion criteria of the study, who were presented in the emergency department were evaluated and resuscitated by a pediatric surgeon. Patients indicated with renal trauma were operated and were post-operatively managed in the pediatric surgery ward. All patients included were followed as an outpatient. The data of this descriptive case series were collected prospectively and was analyzed on SPSS version 22.0.  Results: Out of 180 patients 110 (61.11%) were male and 70 (38.89%) were female with mean age of 8.5 ± 2.9 years. Majority of the patients had blunt trauma (54.44%) followed by firearm injuries (60, 33.33%). While penetrating trauma were observed in 22 patients (12.22%). Overall Renal trauma was observed in 40 (22.2%) of patients. Out of 40 patients, 20 (50%) patients had blunt, while 14 (35%) had firearm and 05 (12.5%) had penetrating abdominal trauma. Majority of renal injuries were Grade II (60%) followed by Grade III (17.5%), Grade IV (12.5%) and Grade I (10%) injury. The major morbidities noted in firearm injured patients were surgical site infection that was reported in 33.33% patients, limb deformity in 6.66% and neurological deficit in 5% patients. Overall Mortality was observed in 6.6% patients and firearm injuries was responsible for 8.33%.  Conclusion: Firearm injuries are one of the significant causes of trauma in children. The renal trauma was observed in 22.2% of cases, and all were managed conservatively. The frequency of morbidity and mortality secondary to firearm injuries was high as compared to other studies. </Text> </OtherText> <PublicationDate>20210901</PublicationDate> <RelatedWork> <RelationCode>81</RelationCode> <WorkIdentifier> <WorkIDType>01</WorkIDType> <IDValue>1-77</IDValue> </WorkIdentifier> </RelatedWork> <RelatedProduct> <RelationCode>89</RelationCode> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>01</ProductIDType> <IDValue>1-77-727-g722</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> </RelatedProduct> </ContentItem> </DOISerialArticleWork> <DOISerialArticleWork> <NotificationType>06</NotificationType> <DOI>10.29052/IJEHSR.v9.i3.2021.405-419</DOI> <DOIWebsiteLink>https://aeirc-edu.com/ojs14/index.php/IJEHSR/article/view/707</DOIWebsiteLink> <DOIStructuralType>Abstraction</DOIStructuralType> <RegistrantName>Advance Educational Institute and Research Center</RegistrantName> <RegistrationAuthority>mEDRA</RegistrationAuthority> <WorkIdentifier> <WorkIDType>01</WorkIDType> <IDValue>1-77-707</IDValue> </WorkIdentifier> <SerialPublication> <SerialWork> <Title textformat="00" language="eng"> <TitleType>01</TitleType> <TitleText>International Journal of Endorsing Health Science Research (IJEHSR)</TitleText> </Title> <Publisher> <PublishingRole>01</PublishingRole> <PublisherName>Advance Educational Institute and Research Center</PublisherName> </Publisher> <CountryOfPublication>PK</CountryOfPublication> </SerialWork> <SerialVersion> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>01</ProductIDType> <IDValue>1</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>07</ProductIDType> <IDValue>23103841</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> <ProductForm>JD</ProductForm> <EpubFormat>01</EpubFormat> <EpubFormatDescription>Open Journal Systems (OJS)</EpubFormatDescription> </SerialVersion> <SerialVersion> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>07</ProductIDType> <IDValue>23073748</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> <ProductForm>JB</ProductForm> </SerialVersion> </SerialPublication> <JournalIssue> <JournalVolumeNumber>9</JournalVolumeNumber> <JournalIssueNumber>3</JournalIssueNumber> <JournalIssueDesignation>Vol 9 No 3 (2021): International Journal of Endorsing Health Science Research</JournalIssueDesignation> <JournalIssueDate> <DateFormat>06</DateFormat> <Date>2021</Date> </JournalIssueDate> </JournalIssue> <ContentItem> <SequenceNumber>1</SequenceNumber> <TextItem> <PageRun> <FirstPageNumber>405</FirstPageNumber> <LastPageNumber>419</LastPageNumber> </PageRun> </TextItem> <Title textformat="00" language="eng"> <TitleType>01</TitleType> <TitleText>Analysis of SARS-CoV-2 and factors predicting next spillover of its more contagious variant.</TitleText> </Title> <Contributor> <SequenceNumber>1</SequenceNumber> <ContributorRole>A01</ContributorRole> <PersonName>Syed A.

The disease has been named COVID-19, and the virus is labelled as severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) based on the type of infection it is causing. Coronaviruses are not new to us, and there are 15 different coronaviruses known to us. In the last 20 years, this is the fourth coronavirus pandemic, and SARS-CoV-2 seems to be the deadliest among all, with the ability to continue producing more contagious variants.  Methodology: In this review, we used EMBASE, MEDLINE and PubMed database search engines (retrieval systems) for the words SARS-CoV-2, its origin, transmission, tropism, zoonotic, vaccines, and the factors that contribute to its contagious and virulent nature.  Results: Accumulating evidence indicated that the pandemic might have a massive impact on both physical and mental health, particularly on those predisposed to COVID-19. Approved vaccines are in use around the globe, they may show different effects in future. We observe signs of constant mutation of SARS-CoV-2, recently SARS-CoV-2 variants such as delta and C.1.2.  Conclusion: In this review, we endeavour to reveal the factors which can impede the ability of this highly lethal virus to reproduce into more contagious variants. </Text> </OtherText> <PublicationDate>20210901</PublicationDate> <RelatedWork> <RelationCode>81</RelationCode> <WorkIdentifier> <WorkIDType>01</WorkIDType> <IDValue>1-77</IDValue> </WorkIdentifier> </RelatedWork> <RelatedProduct> <RelationCode>89</RelationCode> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>01</ProductIDType> <IDValue>1-77-707-g727</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> </RelatedProduct> </ContentItem> </DOISerialArticleWork> <DOISerialArticleWork> <NotificationType>06</NotificationType> <DOI>10.29052/IJEHSR.v9.i3.2021.420-425</DOI> <DOIWebsiteLink>https://aeirc-edu.com/ojs14/index.php/IJEHSR/article/view/703</DOIWebsiteLink> <DOIStructuralType>Abstraction</DOIStructuralType> <RegistrantName>Advance Educational Institute and Research Center</RegistrantName> <RegistrationAuthority>mEDRA</RegistrationAuthority> <WorkIdentifier> <WorkIDType>01</WorkIDType> <IDValue>1-77-703</IDValue> </WorkIdentifier> <SerialPublication> <SerialWork> <Title textformat="00" language="eng"> <TitleType>01</TitleType> <TitleText>International Journal of Endorsing Health Science Research (IJEHSR)</TitleText> </Title> <Publisher> <PublishingRole>01</PublishingRole> <PublisherName>Advance Educational Institute and Research Center</PublisherName> </Publisher> <CountryOfPublication>PK</CountryOfPublication> </SerialWork> <SerialVersion> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>01</ProductIDType> <IDValue>1</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>07</ProductIDType> <IDValue>23103841</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> <ProductForm>JD</ProductForm> <EpubFormat>01</EpubFormat> <EpubFormatDescription>Open Journal Systems (OJS)</EpubFormatDescription> </SerialVersion> <SerialVersion> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>07</ProductIDType> <IDValue>23073748</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> <ProductForm>JB</ProductForm> </SerialVersion> </SerialPublication> <JournalIssue> <JournalVolumeNumber>9</JournalVolumeNumber> <JournalIssueNumber>3</JournalIssueNumber> <JournalIssueDesignation>Vol 9 No 3 (2021): International Journal of Endorsing Health Science Research</JournalIssueDesignation> <JournalIssueDate> <DateFormat>06</DateFormat> <Date>2021</Date> </JournalIssueDate> </JournalIssue> <ContentItem> <SequenceNumber>1</SequenceNumber> <TextItem> <PageRun> <FirstPageNumber>420</FirstPageNumber> <LastPageNumber>425</LastPageNumber> </PageRun> </TextItem> <Title textformat="00" language="eng"> <TitleType>01</TitleType> <TitleText>Association Association of genetic variant of OXTR (rs53576) and MTNR-1B (rs10830963 and rs1387153) with symptoms of stress in Pakistani women with Gestational Diabetes.</TitleText> </Title> <Contributor> <SequenceNumber>1</SequenceNumber> <ContributorRole>A01</ContributorRole> <PersonName>Fatima Abid</PersonName> <PersonNameInverted>Abid, Fatima</PersonNameInverted> <ProfessionalAffiliation> <Affiliation>Department of Physiology, Jinnah Sindh Medical University, Karachi-Pakistan.</Affiliation> </ProfessionalAffiliation> </Contributor> <Contributor> <SequenceNumber>2</SequenceNumber> <ContributorRole>A01</ContributorRole> <PersonName>Sadaf Ahmed</PersonName> <PersonNameInverted>Ahmed, Sadaf</PersonNameInverted> <ProfessionalAffiliation> <Affiliation>Department of Physiology, University of Karachi, Karachi-Pakistan.</Affiliation> </ProfessionalAffiliation> </Contributor> <Contributor> <SequenceNumber>3</SequenceNumber> <ContributorRole>A01</ContributorRole> <PersonName>Syeda Sadia Fatima</PersonName> <PersonNameInverted>Fatima, Syeda Sadia</PersonNameInverted> <ProfessionalAffiliation> <Affiliation>Department of Biological and Biomedical Sciences, Aga Khan University, Karachi-Pakistan.</Affiliation> </ProfessionalAffiliation> </Contributor> <Contributor> <SequenceNumber>4</SequenceNumber> <ContributorRole>A01</ContributorRole> <PersonName>Shamoon Noushad</PersonName> <PersonNameInverted>Noushad, Shamoon</PersonNameInverted> <ProfessionalAffiliation> <Affiliation>Department of Health Physical Education & Sports Sciences, University of Karachi, Karachi-Pakistan.</Affiliation> </ProfessionalAffiliation> </Contributor> <Language> <LanguageRole>01</LanguageRole> <LanguageCode>eng</LanguageCode> </Language> <Subject> <SubjectSchemeIdentifier>23</SubjectSchemeIdentifier> <SubjectHeadingText>GDM, Stress, OXTR, MNTR1B, Single Nucleotide Polymorphism</SubjectHeadingText> </Subject> <OtherText> <TextTypeCode>01</TextTypeCode> <Text textformat="00" language="eng"> Background: Pregnancy continues to be an event full of risks, complications and adverse outcomes for women despite advanced clinical and diagnostic methods and treatment options available in medicine. Diabetes, as a multifactorial and complex disease, is a possible outcome of a blend of numerous genetic variants of differing scarcities. The exact etiology of gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) is unclear; however, the interaction of genetic and environmental factors, especially the genetic variants identified as the genetic loci for type 2 diabetes as candidate genes for GDM.  Methodology: It will be a case-control study with a genetic analysis of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of candidate genes expressed using real-time PCR with sequencing. The study will also evaluate the primer sequence of SNPs.  Discussion: We will be able to share the findings after the completion of our research. The results of this study will able helpful in addressing the psycho-physiological needs of women with GDM, which may also be used to devise strategies to benefit the sustainable long-term behavioural change following the affected pregnancy. </Text> </OtherText> <PublicationDate>20210901</PublicationDate> <RelatedWork> <RelationCode>81</RelationCode> <WorkIdentifier> <WorkIDType>01</WorkIDType> <IDValue>1-77</IDValue> </WorkIdentifier> </RelatedWork> <RelatedProduct> <RelationCode>89</RelationCode> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>01</ProductIDType> <IDValue>1-77-703-g728</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> </RelatedProduct> </ContentItem> </DOISerialArticleWork> <DOISerialArticleWork> <NotificationType>06</NotificationType> <DOI>10.29052/IJEHSR.v9.i3.2021.378-383</DOI> <DOIWebsiteLink>https://aeirc-edu.com/ojs14/index.php/IJEHSR/article/view/688</DOIWebsiteLink> <DOIStructuralType>Abstraction</DOIStructuralType> <RegistrantName>Advance Educational Institute and Research Center</RegistrantName> <RegistrationAuthority>mEDRA</RegistrationAuthority> <WorkIdentifier> <WorkIDType>01</WorkIDType> <IDValue>1-77-688</IDValue> </WorkIdentifier> <SerialPublication> <SerialWork> <Title textformat="00" language="eng"> <TitleType>01</TitleType> <TitleText>International Journal of Endorsing Health Science Research (IJEHSR)</TitleText> </Title> <Publisher> <PublishingRole>01</PublishingRole> <PublisherName>Advance Educational Institute and Research Center</PublisherName> </Publisher> <CountryOfPublication>PK</CountryOfPublication> </SerialWork> <SerialVersion> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>01</ProductIDType> <IDValue>1</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>07</ProductIDType> <IDValue>23103841</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> <ProductForm>JD</ProductForm> <EpubFormat>01</EpubFormat> <EpubFormatDescription>Open Journal Systems (OJS)</EpubFormatDescription> </SerialVersion> <SerialVersion> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>07</ProductIDType> <IDValue>23073748</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> <ProductForm>JB</ProductForm> </SerialVersion> </SerialPublication> <JournalIssue> <JournalVolumeNumber>9</JournalVolumeNumber> <JournalIssueNumber>3</JournalIssueNumber> <JournalIssueDesignation>Vol 9 No 3 (2021): International Journal of Endorsing Health Science Research</JournalIssueDesignation> <JournalIssueDate> <DateFormat>06</DateFormat> <Date>2021</Date> </JournalIssueDate> </JournalIssue> <ContentItem> <SequenceNumber>15</SequenceNumber> <TextItem> <PageRun> <FirstPageNumber>378</FirstPageNumber> <LastPageNumber>383</LastPageNumber> </PageRun> </TextItem> <Title textformat="00" language="eng"> <TitleType>01</TitleType> <TitleText>Screening of hypothyroidism disorder in newborns by heel prick level of thyroid-stimulating hormones.</TitleText> </Title> <Contributor> <SequenceNumber>1</SequenceNumber> <ContributorRole>A01</ContributorRole> <PersonName>Shaista Rashid</PersonName> <PersonNameInverted>Rashid, Shaista</PersonNameInverted> <ProfessionalAffiliation> <Affiliation>Karachi Medical Dental College, Karachi-Pakistan.</Affiliation> </ProfessionalAffiliation> </Contributor> <Contributor> <SequenceNumber>2</SequenceNumber> <ContributorRole>A01</ContributorRole> <PersonName>Shabnam Nadeem</PersonName> <PersonNameInverted>Nadeem, Shabnam</PersonNameInverted> <ProfessionalAffiliation> <Affiliation>Karachi Medical Dental College, Karachi-Pakistan.</Affiliation> </ProfessionalAffiliation> </Contributor> <Contributor> <SequenceNumber>3</SequenceNumber> <ContributorRole>A01</ContributorRole> <PersonName>Shazia Naseeb</PersonName> <PersonNameInverted>Naseeb, Shazia</PersonNameInverted> <ProfessionalAffiliation> <Affiliation>Jinnah Post Graduate Medical Centre, Karachi-Pakistan.</Affiliation> </ProfessionalAffiliation> </Contributor> <Language> <LanguageRole>01</LanguageRole> <LanguageCode>eng</LanguageCode> </Language> <Subject> <SubjectSchemeIdentifier>23</SubjectSchemeIdentifier> <SubjectHeadingText>Thyroid-stimulating hormone, Congenital Hypothyroidism, Neonatal Screening</SubjectHeadingText> </Subject> <OtherText> <TextTypeCode>01</TextTypeCode> <Text textformat="00" language="eng"> Background: Thyroid hormones are vital for fetal development and regulation of neuropsychological function. Therefore an adequate amount of thyroid hormone levels are necessary for brain development cognitive function. Newborn screening for congenital hypothyroidism is a great achievement in preventive medicine. Screening for hypothyroidism disorder using heel prick samples is considered essential for preventing intellectual dysfunction and delayed growth. The objective of the present study was to determine the frequency of hypothyroidism disorder in newborns.  Methodology: A cross-sectional study was conducted at Abbasi Shaheed Hospital, Gynae & Obstetrics Department, Karachi, Pakistan. Blood samples were obtained from 257 neonates between 3rd & 5th day after birth by the heel prick method. Babies of Mothers having thyroid diseases were excluded from the study. Serum Thyroid-stimulating hormones (TSH) were tested using the enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay method. Newborn serum TSH > 20 miu/L was considered abnormal.  Results: The overall mean age of neonates was 3.47 ± 0.57 days. Out of the total 257 neonates screened, female babies had higher TSH levels and congenital hypothyroidism was found in 4(1.55%) cases. The observed mean TSH level was 4.09 ± 0.24 mIU/L.  Conclusion: In conclusion, the observed frequency of neonatal hypothyroidism in this single-center study prompts the need for early screening and diagnosis. The screening should be included in the post-natal period to prevent sequels associated with hypothyroidism for timely diagnosis and treatment of newborns. </Text> </OtherText> <PublicationDate>20210901</PublicationDate> <RelatedWork> <RelationCode>81</RelationCode> <WorkIdentifier> <WorkIDType>01</WorkIDType> <IDValue>1-77</IDValue> </WorkIdentifier> </RelatedWork> <RelatedProduct> <RelationCode>89</RelationCode> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>01</ProductIDType> <IDValue>1-77-688-g723</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> </RelatedProduct> </ContentItem> </DOISerialArticleWork> <DOISerialArticleWork> <NotificationType>06</NotificationType> <DOI>10.29052/IJEHSR.v9.i3.2021.401-404</DOI> <DOIWebsiteLink>https://aeirc-edu.com/ojs14/index.php/IJEHSR/article/view/668</DOIWebsiteLink> <DOIStructuralType>Abstraction</DOIStructuralType> <RegistrantName>Advance Educational Institute and Research Center</RegistrantName> <RegistrationAuthority>mEDRA</RegistrationAuthority> <WorkIdentifier> <WorkIDType>01</WorkIDType> <IDValue>1-77-668</IDValue> </WorkIdentifier> <SerialPublication> <SerialWork> <Title textformat="00" language="eng"> <TitleType>01</TitleType> <TitleText>International Journal of Endorsing Health Science Research (IJEHSR)</TitleText> </Title> <Publisher> <PublishingRole>01</PublishingRole> <PublisherName>Advance Educational Institute and Research Center</PublisherName> </Publisher> <CountryOfPublication>PK</CountryOfPublication> </SerialWork> <SerialVersion> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>01</ProductIDType> <IDValue>1</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>07</ProductIDType> <IDValue>23103841</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> <ProductForm>JD</ProductForm> <EpubFormat>01</EpubFormat> <EpubFormatDescription>Open Journal Systems (OJS)</EpubFormatDescription> </SerialVersion> <SerialVersion> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>07</ProductIDType> <IDValue>23073748</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> <ProductForm>JB</ProductForm> </SerialVersion> </SerialPublication> <JournalIssue> <JournalVolumeNumber>9</JournalVolumeNumber> <JournalIssueNumber>3</JournalIssueNumber> <JournalIssueDesignation>Vol 9 No 3 (2021): International Journal of Endorsing Health Science Research</JournalIssueDesignation> <JournalIssueDate> <DateFormat>06</DateFormat> <Date>2021</Date> </JournalIssueDate> </JournalIssue> <ContentItem> <SequenceNumber>1</SequenceNumber> <TextItem> <PageRun> <FirstPageNumber>401</FirstPageNumber> <LastPageNumber>404</LastPageNumber> </PageRun> </TextItem> <Title textformat="00" language="eng"> <TitleType>01</TitleType> <TitleText>Single stage management of chronic posterolateral knee dislocation in a middle-aged man -

This study is concerned with the pain in the upper Trapezius muscle due to the formation of myofascial trigger points and to make a comparison of the effectiveness of dry needling with dry cupping for treating upper trapezius myofascial trigger points.  Methodology: Myofascial trigger points were diagnosed in 30 individuals in the upper trapezius. Subjects were randomized into Group-A (n=15) and Group-B (n=15) using the coin toss method. Patients were evaluated at baseline and after the termination of intervention using the Numeric Pain Rating Scale (NPRS), Neck Disability Index (NDI) and cervical joint range of motions (ROM). Patients from both groups received three sessions of treatment on alternate days in one week.  Results: Patients with both interventions resulted in significant improvement of NPRS (p=0.001), NDI (p=0.001), and cervical ranges of motion (p=0.001). However, between groups comparison of outcome measure showed no significant difference in NPRS (p=0.990), NDI (p=0.359), cervical flexion (p=0.457), cervical extension (p=0.382), right cervical lateral flexion (p=0.250), left cervical lateral flexion (p=0.792), right cervical rotation (p=0.336), and left cervical rotation (p=0.242) of motion.  Conclusion: The pre-and post-intervention results have concluded that both treatment methods effectively treat myofascial trigger points. There was no significant difference between the two groups for numeric pain rating scale, neck disability index scoring and cervical range of motions. </Text> </OtherText>

textformat="00" language="eng"> Background: Predicting stone clearance before intervention can be useful to plan the modality of treatment and calculate the cost of procedures. Therefore, this study aims to determine the frequency of successful stone clearance in a patient undergoing percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL) with different categories of Guy's Stone Score (GSS).  Methodology: A total of 115 patients undergoing standard PCNL from January to December 2018 were included in this study. According to GSS I-IV, patients were then categorized into four groups after having pre-operative Computed Tomography of Kidney, Ureter, and Bladder (KUB). All the patients received standard general anesthesia and underwent standard PCNL in a prone position. The Percutaneous nephrostomy 18-gauge needle is passed into the pelvis of the kidney, Pelvi-calyceal system opacified and confirmed using fluoroscopy, a guidewire is passed, and 30 Fr Amplatz sheath is introduced after serial dilatation. A 26 Fr nephroscope is then inserted through the working sheath, and the stone is fragmented and removed. Finally, a nephrostomy drain tube is kept at the puncture site. The outcome was accessed in terms of stone clearance rate after PCNL on the 2nd postoperative day using the radiological modality of CT-KUB.  Results: Among the 115 patients here were 48(41.7%) categorized as GSS I, 26(22.6%) categorized as GSSII, 20(17.4%) categorized as GSS III, and 21(18.3%) categorized as GSS IV. The overall stone clearance observed was 64.3%, individual stone clearance was GSS I=91.66%, GSS II=53.84%, GSS III=50%, and GSS IV=28.57%. Stone clearance among the different GSS categories was significantly different (p<0.01).  Conclusion: The Guy's Stone Score, based on CT scan findings, is a significant system in predicting successful stone-free rates. It is a convenient, quick, and efficient tool for pre-operative assessment, and it can be incorporated as a mandatory protocol before planning PCNL. </Text> </OtherText>

separators are used for the purification of platelets from healthy donors but the donor’s safety should not be overlooked. Hence, the present study aimed to compare the effect of platelet apheresis (via mega unit) on hematological indices of healthy donors.  Methodology: In this cross-sectional study, 100 samples of healthy plateletpheresis or thrombopheresis donors were included. The pre and post plateletphresis hematological parameters were assessed. The total platelet count (PLT), hemoglobin (Hb), white blood cells count (WBCs), red blood cells count (RBCs), mean cell volume (MCV), mean cell hemoglobin (MCH) or mean corpuscular hemoglobin concentration (MHCH) were estimated through complete blood count (CBC) analysis and platelet apheresis was done by Mega unit Haemonetics MCS+9000 Cell Separator and 994- CFE.  Results: After platelet apheresis procedure, a significant decrement in PLT value (p-value <0.001). And with that a remarkable difference was also observed in the haemoglobin, MCH and MCHC.  Conclusion: In conclusion, the hematological parameters significant decree among donors after the procedure of platelet aphresis but the revealed characteristics of thrombocytopenia and anemia were not found. </Text> </OtherText> <PublicationDate>20210901</PublicationDate> <RelatedWork> <RelationCode>81</RelationCode> <WorkIdentifier> <WorkIDType>01</WorkIDType> <IDValue>1-77</IDValue> </WorkIdentifier> </RelatedWork> <RelatedProduct> <RelationCode>89</RelationCode> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>01</ProductIDType> <IDValue>1-77-643-g719</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> </RelatedProduct> </ContentItem> </DOISerialArticleWork> <DOISerialArticleWork> <NotificationType>06</NotificationType> <DOI>10.29052/IJEHSR.v9.i3.2021.315-321</DOI> <DOIWebsiteLink>https://aeirc-edu.com/ojs14/index.php/IJEHSR/article/view/635</DOIWebsiteLink> <DOIStructuralType>Abstraction</DOIStructuralType> <RegistrantName>Advance Educational Institute and Research Center</RegistrantName> <RegistrationAuthority>mEDRA</RegistrationAuthority> <WorkIdentifier> <WorkIDType>01</WorkIDType> <IDValue>1-77-635</IDValue> </WorkIdentifier> <SerialPublication> <SerialWork> <Title textformat="00" language="eng"> <TitleType>01</TitleType> <TitleText>International Journal of Endorsing Health Science Research (IJEHSR)</TitleText> </Title> <Publisher> <PublishingRole>01</PublishingRole> <PublisherName>Advance Educational Institute and Research Center</PublisherName> </Publisher> <CountryOfPublication>PK</CountryOfPublication> </SerialWork> <SerialVersion> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>01</ProductIDType> <IDValue>1</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>07</ProductIDType> <IDValue>23103841</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> <ProductForm>JD</ProductForm> <EpubFormat>01</EpubFormat> <EpubFormatDescription>Open Journal Systems (OJS)</EpubFormatDescription> </SerialVersion> <SerialVersion> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>07</ProductIDType> <IDValue>23073748</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> <ProductForm>JB</ProductForm> </SerialVersion> </SerialPublication> <JournalIssue> <JournalVolumeNumber>9</JournalVolumeNumber> <JournalIssueNumber>3</JournalIssueNumber> <JournalIssueDesignation>Vol 9 No 3 (2021): International Journal of Endorsing Health Science Research</JournalIssueDesignation> <JournalIssueDate> <DateFormat>06</DateFormat> <Date>2021</Date> </JournalIssueDate> </JournalIssue> <ContentItem> <SequenceNumber>6</SequenceNumber> <TextItem> <PageRun> <FirstPageNumber>315</FirstPageNumber> <LastPageNumber>321</LastPageNumber> </PageRun> </TextItem> <Title textformat="00" language="eng"> <TitleType>01</TitleType> <TitleText>Effectiveness of ischemic compression pressure versus spray and stretch technique in the management of active myofascial trigger points of trapezius muscle.</TitleText> </Title> <Contributor> <SequenceNumber>1</SequenceNumber> <ContributorRole>A01</ContributorRole> <PersonName>Urooj Khan</PersonName> <PersonNameInverted>Khan, Urooj</PersonNameInverted> <ProfessionalAffiliation> <Affiliation>Sindh Institute of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation, Karachi-Pakistan.</Affiliation> </ProfessionalAffiliation> </Contributor> <Contributor> <SequenceNumber>2</SequenceNumber> <ContributorRole>A01</ContributorRole> <PersonName>Saeed Akhter</PersonName> <PersonNameInverted>Akhter, Saeed</PersonNameInverted> <ProfessionalAffiliation> <Affiliation>Sindh Institute of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation, Karachi-Pakistan.</Affiliation> </ProfessionalAffiliation> </Contributor> <Contributor> <SequenceNumber>3</SequenceNumber> <ContributorRole>A01</ContributorRole> <PersonName>Muhammad Khan</PersonName> <PersonNameInverted>Khan, Muhammad</PersonNameInverted> <ProfessionalAffiliation> <Affiliation>Jinnah Sindh Medical University, Karachi-Pakistan.</Affiliation> </ProfessionalAffiliation> </Contributor> <Contributor> <SequenceNumber>4</SequenceNumber> <ContributorRole>A01</ContributorRole> <PersonName>Aftab Ahmed Mirza Baig</PersonName> <PersonNameInverted>Mirza Baig, Aftab Ahmed</PersonNameInverted> <ProfessionalAffiliation> <Affiliation>Sindh Institute of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation, Karachi-Pakistan.</Affiliation> </ProfessionalAffiliation> </Contributor> <Language> <LanguageRole>01</LanguageRole> <LanguageCode>eng</LanguageCode> </Language> <Subject> <SubjectSchemeIdentifier>23</SubjectSchemeIdentifier> <SubjectHeadingText>Myofascial Pain Syndrome, Muscular Diseases, Myofascial Trigger Point Pain, Musculoskeletal Diseases, Superficial Back Muscles</SubjectHeadingText> </Subject> <OtherText> <TextTypeCode>01</TextTypeCode> <Text textformat="00" language="eng"> Background: Now, a days myofascial trigger points are tremendously occurring and become a stressful part of nearly any person at any time in a lifetime. This study compares the effects of ischemic compression pressure with spray and stretch technique to treat active myofascial trigger points of the trapezius muscle in patients with neck pain.  Methodology: A comparative interventional study was conducted at Dow University of Health Sciences from December 2016 and May 2017. Seventy patients (35 in each group) with active myofascial trigger points of trapezius were randomly assigned to group A (ischemic compression pressure) and group B (vapocoolant spray and stretch technique). Baseline and last session assessment of pain intensity, pain pressure tolerance, cervical range of motion and functional disability were measured through numerical pain-rating scale, algometer, goniometer and neck disability index, respectively.  Results: Both groups showed significant improvement in all dependent variables of study which were neck pain, cervical range of motion and pain pressure tolerance (p-value<0.05). Group A showed greater improvement in pain intensity (p-value 0.015), pressure pain threshold (p-value 0.000) and cervical range of motion flexion, left side flexion and right-side flexion (p-value 0.002, 0.000 & 0.004) than group B.  Conclusion: Both ischemic compression pressure & spray and stretch technique deactivated trigger points of upper fibers trapezius muscle in patients with neck pain, but the ischemic compression pressure was superior to the spray and stretch technique. </Text> </OtherText> <PublicationDate>20210901</PublicationDate> <RelatedWork> <RelationCode>81</RelationCode> <WorkIdentifier> <WorkIDType>01</WorkIDType> <IDValue>1-77</IDValue> </WorkIdentifier> </RelatedWork> <RelatedProduct> <RelationCode>89</RelationCode> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>01</ProductIDType> <IDValue>1-77-635-g711</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> </RelatedProduct> </ContentItem> </DOISerialArticleWork> <DOISerialArticleWork> <NotificationType>06</NotificationType> <DOI>10.29052/IJEHSR.v9.i3.2021.276-280</DOI> <DOIWebsiteLink>https://aeirc-edu.com/ojs14/index.php/IJEHSR/article/view/634</DOIWebsiteLink> <DOIStructuralType>Abstraction</DOIStructuralType> <RegistrantName>Advance Educational Institute and Research Center</RegistrantName> <RegistrationAuthority>mEDRA</RegistrationAuthority> <WorkIdentifier> <WorkIDType>01</WorkIDType> <IDValue>1-77-634</IDValue> </WorkIdentifier> <SerialPublication> <SerialWork> <Title textformat="00" language="eng"> <TitleType>01</TitleType> <TitleText>International Journal of Endorsing Health Science Research (IJEHSR)</TitleText> </Title> <Publisher> <PublishingRole>01</PublishingRole> <PublisherName>Advance Educational Institute and Research Center</PublisherName> </Publisher> <CountryOfPublication>PK</CountryOfPublication> </SerialWork> <SerialVersion> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>01</ProductIDType> <IDValue>1</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>07</ProductIDType> <IDValue>23103841</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> <ProductForm>JD</ProductForm> <EpubFormat>01</EpubFormat> <EpubFormatDescription>Open Journal Systems (OJS)</EpubFormatDescription> </SerialVersion> <SerialVersion> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>07</ProductIDType> <IDValue>23073748</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> <ProductForm>JB</ProductForm> </SerialVersion> </SerialPublication> <JournalIssue> <JournalVolumeNumber>9</JournalVolumeNumber> <JournalIssueNumber>3</JournalIssueNumber> <JournalIssueDesignation>Vol 9 No 3 (2021): International Journal of Endorsing Health Science Research</JournalIssueDesignation> <JournalIssueDate> <DateFormat>06</DateFormat> <Date>2021</Date> </JournalIssueDate> </JournalIssue> <ContentItem> <SequenceNumber>1</SequenceNumber> <TextItem> <PageRun> <FirstPageNumber>276</FirstPageNumber> <LastPageNumber>280</LastPageNumber> </PageRun> </TextItem> <Title textformat="00" language="eng"> <TitleType>01</TitleType> <TitleText>Can simulation-based education replace the hands-on experience learning during the COVID-19 pandemic?</TitleText> </Title> <Contributor> <SequenceNumber>1</SequenceNumber> <ContributorRole>A01</ContributorRole> <PersonName>Fadieleh A.

Our objective was to compare the efficacy of both therapies in complicated XDR typhoid fever in children, regarding defervescence, bacterial clearance time, resolution of complications, hospital stay, and relapse.  Methodology: This open-label randomized comparative trial was conducted over 18 months at the Department of Pediatrics, Kemari, Clifton and North Campuses, Ziauddin University Hospital Karachi, Pakistan, in which children (aged 6 months to 18 years) with positive blood culture for XDR enteric fever, were recruited into 2 parallel treatment groups (meropenum) and (meropenum+azithromycin combined). Primary outcome viz clinical improvement (resolution of defervescence, complications, and hospital stay) and lab improvement (negative repeat blood culture, 5 days post-treatment), as well as secondary outcome i.e. treatment failure, adverse drug reactions, and relapse of typhoid within 2 weeks post-treatment were monitored.  Results: In the combination group, there was a quicker resolution of fever (5.40 ± 2.17 days vs 6.55 ± 2.77 days in the monotherapy group) as well as complications (3.42 ± 1.97 days vs 4.31 ± 2.71 days in the monotherapy group), resulting in shorter hospital stay (6.94 ± 2.63 days vs 8.08 ± 3.16 days in monotherapy group). 20% had treatment failure in the monotherapy group with a relative risk of 3.55 times more than that in the combination group.  Conclusion: Combination therapy with meropenum and azithromycin is more efficacious in treating complicated XDR typhoid fever in children than meropenum alone. </Text> </OtherText> <PublicationDate>20210901</PublicationDate> <RelatedWork> <RelationCode>81</RelationCode> <WorkIdentifier> <WorkIDType>01</WorkIDType> <IDValue>1-77</IDValue> </WorkIdentifier> </RelatedWork> <RelatedProduct> <RelationCode>89</RelationCode> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>01</ProductIDType> <IDValue>1-77-633-g724</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> </RelatedProduct> </ContentItem> </DOISerialArticleWork> <DOISerialArticleWork> <NotificationType>06</NotificationType> <DOI>10.29052/IJEHSR.v9.i3.2021.309-314</DOI> <DOIWebsiteLink>https://aeirc-edu.com/ojs14/index.php/IJEHSR/article/view/628</DOIWebsiteLink> <DOIStructuralType>Abstraction</DOIStructuralType> <RegistrantName>Advance Educational Institute and Research Center</RegistrantName> <RegistrationAuthority>mEDRA</RegistrationAuthority> <WorkIdentifier> <WorkIDType>01</WorkIDType> <IDValue>1-77-628</IDValue> </WorkIdentifier> <SerialPublication> <SerialWork> <Title textformat="00" language="eng"> <TitleType>01</TitleType> <TitleText>International Journal of Endorsing Health Science Research (IJEHSR)</TitleText> </Title> <Publisher> <PublishingRole>01</PublishingRole> <PublisherName>Advance Educational Institute and Research Center</PublisherName> </Publisher> <CountryOfPublication>PK</CountryOfPublication> </SerialWork> <SerialVersion> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>01</ProductIDType> <IDValue>1</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>07</ProductIDType> <IDValue>23103841</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> <ProductForm>JD</ProductForm> <EpubFormat>01</EpubFormat> <EpubFormatDescription>Open Journal Systems (OJS)</EpubFormatDescription> </SerialVersion> <SerialVersion> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>07</ProductIDType> <IDValue>23073748</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> <ProductForm>JB</ProductForm> </SerialVersion> </SerialPublication> <JournalIssue> <JournalVolumeNumber>9</JournalVolumeNumber> <JournalIssueNumber>3</JournalIssueNumber> <JournalIssueDesignation>Vol 9 No 3 (2021): International Journal of Endorsing Health Science Research</JournalIssueDesignation> <JournalIssueDate> <DateFormat>06</DateFormat> <Date>2021</Date> </JournalIssueDate> </JournalIssue> <ContentItem> <SequenceNumber>5</SequenceNumber> <TextItem> <PageRun> <FirstPageNumber>309</FirstPageNumber> <LastPageNumber>314</LastPageNumber> </PageRun> </TextItem> <Title textformat="00" language="eng"> <TitleType>01</TitleType> <TitleText>The outcome of carpal tunnel syndrome with modified mini-incision technique.</TitleText> </Title> <Contributor> <SequenceNumber>1</SequenceNumber> <ContributorRole>A01</ContributorRole> <PersonName>Aurangzeb Kalhoro</PersonName> <PersonNameInverted>Kalhoro, Aurangzeb</PersonNameInverted> <ProfessionalAffiliation> <Affiliation>Neurospinal Cancer Care Institute, Karachi-Pakistan.</Affiliation> </ProfessionalAffiliation> </Contributor> <Contributor> <SequenceNumber>2</SequenceNumber> <ContributorRole>A01</ContributorRole> <PersonName>Abdul Sattar M.

Although many dental treatments have been said to be safe and can be performed while fasting, others may break the fast. The study aims to evaluate the perception of dental patients regarding the effect of such treatments and hygiene measures during fasting.  Methodology: A cross-sectional survey was carried out in two dental teaching hospitals of Lahore, Pakistan. A self-administered structured questionnaire was developed to assess the knowledge and perception of patients regarding dental treatments and hygiene practices while fasting. The chi-squared test was used to observe differences between knowledge amongst gender, occupation and education status. Moreover, multinomial regression analysis was performed to assess the relationship between these variables.  Results: Among 374 responses, about 76.2% of respondents believed that undergoing extraction broke fast. Scaling thought to nullify the fast by 45.5%. 52.9% perceived root canal treatment (RCT) to break the fast, along with 67.6%, who believed anesthesia administration broke fast. Brushing was reported to break the fast by 57.5%, with mouthwash invalidating fast by 63.4%.  Conclusion: Most respondents thought most oral hygiene measures broke the fast, whereas responses were split regarding procedures where few were perceived to break the fast, and the rest did not. </Text> </OtherText> <PublicationDate>20210901</PublicationDate> <RelatedWork>

textformat="00" language="eng"> Background: Fear-avoidance beliefs and signs specifically non-organics are considered the psychological factors that have been determined in playing a major role in the advancement of prolonged disability. The current study was directed to explore the prevalence of fear-avoidance belief in patients with neck and back pain seeking physiotherapy and identifying the superior level of fear-avoidance beliefs regarding work or bodily performances which causes chronicity and disability in patients.  Methodology: An observational study was conducted at the Institute of Physical Medicine & Rehabilitation, Dow University of Health Sciences, Ojha Campus, Karachi-Pakistan, from 1st Dec 2019 to 29th Feb 2020. Standard Fear Avoidance Belief Questionnaire (FAB-Q) was used to assess the fear level. The queries determined from the questionnaire were distributed into two types; FABQ-work-related and FABQ-physical activity-related.  Results: A total of 100 patients were included in the study, with a mean age of 45.76 ± 13.75 years. 39.0% patients reported neck pain, whereas 61.0% reported back pain. The prevalence of fear-avoidance belief related to physical activity was 90% and related to work was 91%. The results also showed a significant association between gender and work-related fear-avoidance belief with a p-value of 0.024 (≤ 0.05).  Conclusion: It is concluded that neck and backache sufferers show a high prevalence of fear-avoidance behavior of physical pastime and work score, confining their daily activities and not taking part in any bodily activities due to fear. </Text> </OtherText>

Various methods have been used to reconstruct mid-penile hypospadias; still, massive failure rates and leading complications have been indicated. The present study observes the effectiveness of a technique using a well-vascularized dartos flap as a second layer in distal and mid- penile hypospadias repair.  Methodology: This is a cross-sectional study conducted between 2017-2019. A total of 110 male children with hypospadias were operated on. The children with mid-penile or slightly more proximal hypospadias, with or without ventral chordae and with the intact prepuce, were included in the study. Outcome measures comprised of surgical results with the absence of any serious side effects, decent flow, meat stenosis, fistula and dehiscence of glans.  Results: The median follow-up duration was 12 months. There were 72 cases of mid penile hypospadias (66.7%), and in 36 cases (33.3%), the meatus was slightly more dorsal. The age of the patients ranged from 1.1 to 11 years, with a mean age of 3.52 ± 2.74 years. Surgery was successful in 105 (95.5%) cases. Four patients presented with meatal stenosis and one with meatal stenosis plus fistula, more than 2 months after surgery. Meatal stenosis was managed by meatoplasty, and in the case of a urethral fistula, the patient was re-operated after at least 6 months.  Conclusion: Ventral dartos flap is a safe, effective method with less adverse effect and less time-consuming in patients with distal and mid-penile hypospadias. </Text> </OtherText> <PublicationDate>20210901</PublicationDate> <RelatedWork>

<Text textformat="00" language="eng"> Background: Percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL) is the treatment of choice for large or complex renal stones. The upper pole (supra-costal access) is associated with pulmonary and cardiac complications post-operatively, owing to its proximity to the diaphragm. The prone position also causes restricted chest expansion and decreased pulmonary compliance. In this study, we aim to evaluate pulmonary complications after percutaneous nephrolithotomy by reducing the tidal volume intra-operatively and to assess the appropriate tidal volume for patients undergoing PCNL.  Methodology: A retrospective chart review was performed over a period of one year (2019-2020). All patients who underwent PCNL and fulfilled the inclusion criteria were included in the study. They were divided into two groups: low tidal volume (Cases), and normal tidal volume (Controls). The records were evaluated for any pulmonary complications post-operatively, and this was compared between the two groups.  Results: A total of 114 patients were included in the study. When patients with low tidal volume were compared to patients with normal tidal volume, no significant difference in pulmonary complications was observed (p-value < 0.05).  Conclusion: There was no significant difference between the two groups, in terms of post-PCNL pulmonary complications, with respect to the tidal volume. Further multicenter studies can better elucidate these findings. </Text> </OtherText> <PublicationDate>20210901</PublicationDate> <RelatedWork> <RelationCode>81</RelationCode> <WorkIdentifier>

language="eng"> Background: Cervical spine allow maximum and necessary movements for the functioning of head and sensory organs. Any issue with the flexibility and joint movement can be determined by assessing the cervical range of motion. Cervical range of motion (CROM) assessment is commonly used in clinical practice. The current study aims to find the effects of wearing a hijab on the cervical range of motion compared to the normal cervical range of motions.  Methodology: A cross-sectional study was conducted among hijab-wearing female students from Bahria University Medical and Dental College, from November 2019 to January 2020. The study subjects were recruited using a CROM device. Hijab-wearing female students between 18–23 years of age who wear hijab for at least 3 months, with the duration of wearing hijab for at least or at most 6 hours/day were included in the study.  Results: A total of 384 students were recruited. Mean Cervical flexion for wearing hijab ≤ 6 hours was 61.06 ± 17.19, and > 6 hours was 55.28 ± 16.09 (p<0.001). Mean extension for wearing hijab ≤ 6 hours was observed to be 41.03 ± 12.89 and for > 6 hours was 37.96 ± 10.94 (p=0.008). Mean Lateral flexion for wearing hijab ≤ 6 hours was 42.66 ± 10.32, and > 6 hours was 38.96 ± 11.01 (p=0.002). While mean right rotation for wearing hijab ≤ 6 hours was 59.50 ± 14.27, and 6 hours was 63.47 ± 14.13 (p=0.010). Moreover, the mean Left rotation for wearing hijab ≤ 6 hours was 64.66 ± 17.86, and >6 hours was 70.58 ± 14.34 (p=0.001).  Conclusion: The routine wearing of the hijab affects cervical mobility. Moreover, it is concluded that wearing a hijab for > 6 hours greatly affects the range of the head for movement, by decreasing the cervical range of motion. </Text> </OtherText> <PublicationDate>20210901</PublicationDate> <RelatedWork> <RelationCode>81</RelationCode> <WorkIdentifier> <WorkIDType>01</WorkIDType> <IDValue>1-77</IDValue> </WorkIdentifier> </RelatedWork> <RelatedProduct> <RelationCode>89</RelationCode> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>01</ProductIDType> <IDValue>1-77-578-g716</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> </RelatedProduct> </ContentItem> </DOISerialArticleWork> <DOISerialArticleWork> <NotificationType>06</NotificationType> <DOI>10.29052/IJEHSR.v9.i3.2021.395-400</DOI> <DOIWebsiteLink>https://aeirc-edu.com/ojs14/index.php/IJEHSR/article/view/561</DOIWebsiteLink> <DOIStructuralType>Abstraction</DOIStructuralType> <RegistrantName>Advance Educational Institute and Research Center</RegistrantName> <RegistrationAuthority>mEDRA</RegistrationAuthority> <WorkIdentifier> <WorkIDType>01</WorkIDType> <IDValue>1-77-561</IDValue> </WorkIdentifier> <SerialPublication> <SerialWork> <Title textformat="00" language="eng"> <TitleType>01</TitleType> <TitleText>International Journal of Endorsing Health Science Research (IJEHSR)</TitleText> </Title> <Publisher> <PublishingRole>01</PublishingRole> <PublisherName>Advance Educational Institute and Research Center</PublisherName> </Publisher> <CountryOfPublication>PK</CountryOfPublication> </SerialWork> <SerialVersion> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>01</ProductIDType> <IDValue>1</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>07</ProductIDType> <IDValue>23103841</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> <ProductForm>JD</ProductForm> <EpubFormat>01</EpubFormat> <EpubFormatDescription>Open Journal Systems (OJS)</EpubFormatDescription> </SerialVersion> <SerialVersion> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>07</ProductIDType> <IDValue>23073748</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> <ProductForm>JB</ProductForm> </SerialVersion> </SerialPublication> <JournalIssue> <JournalVolumeNumber>9</JournalVolumeNumber> <JournalIssueNumber>3</JournalIssueNumber> <JournalIssueDesignation>Vol 9 No 3 (2021): International Journal of Endorsing Health Science Research</JournalIssueDesignation> <JournalIssueDate> <DateFormat>06</DateFormat> <Date>2021</Date> </JournalIssueDate> </JournalIssue> <ContentItem> <SequenceNumber>17</SequenceNumber> <TextItem> <PageRun> <FirstPageNumber>395</FirstPageNumber> <LastPageNumber>400</LastPageNumber> </PageRun> </TextItem> <Title textformat="00" language="eng"> <TitleType>01</TitleType> <TitleText>Screening of depression in chronic kidney disease patients undergoing haemodialysis.</TitleText> </Title> <Contributor> <SequenceNumber>1</SequenceNumber> <ContributorRole>A01</ContributorRole> <PersonName>Muhammad Fahad</PersonName> <PersonNameInverted>Fahad, Muhammad</PersonNameInverted> <ProfessionalAffiliation> <Affiliation>Bahria University Medical & Dental College, Karachi-Pakistan.</Affiliation> </ProfessionalAffiliation> <BiographicalNote>  </BiographicalNote> </Contributor> <Contributor> <SequenceNumber>2</SequenceNumber> <ContributorRole>A01</ContributorRole> <PersonName>Abdul Hafeez Kandhro</PersonName> <PersonNameInverted>Kandhro, Abdul Hafeez</PersonNameInverted> <ProfessionalAffiliation> <Affiliation>Bahria University Medical & Dental College, Karachi-Pakistan.</Affiliation> </ProfessionalAffiliation> </Contributor> <Contributor> <SequenceNumber>3</SequenceNumber> <ContributorRole>A01</ContributorRole> <PersonName>Sher Wali Khan</PersonName> <PersonNameInverted>Khan, Sher Wali</PersonNameInverted> <ProfessionalAffiliation> <Affiliation>The Indus Hospital Research Center (IHRC), Karachi-Pakistan.</Affiliation> </ProfessionalAffiliation> </Contributor> <Language> <LanguageRole>01</LanguageRole> <LanguageCode>eng</LanguageCode> </Language> <Subject> <SubjectSchemeIdentifier>23</SubjectSchemeIdentifier> <SubjectHeadingText>Chronic Kidney Disease, Depression, End-Stage Renal Disease, Hospital Anxiety & Depression Scale-HADS.</SubjectHeadingText> </Subject> <OtherText> <TextTypeCode>01</TextTypeCode> <Text textformat="00" language="eng"> Background: Depression is a common psychiatric disorder among chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients, and it has affected the morbidity & mortality rate of CKD patients. This study aims to determine the frequency and severity of depression in CKD patients on hemodialysis.  Methodology: This cross-sectional study was conducted at the Department of Nephrology, Abbasi Shaheed Hospital, Karachi. A total of 251 patients of age between 18-60 years admitted with End-Stage Renal Disease ESRD and getting maintenance haemodialysis were included. Patients diagnosed with psychiatric, neurological illnesses and taking antidepressants were excluded from the study. Demographic and clinical characteristics of CKD patients were obtained on the structured questionnaire, and the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS) was utilized.  Results: Of the total, 127 (50.6%) were males, and 124 (49.4%) were females, with a mean age of 53.94 ± 14.67 years. Approximately 65% of ESRD patients were suffering from depression. Among these, the patients who were receiving maintenance dialysis were suffering from a mild form of depression (33.1%) (HADS 5-9), 22.3% had moderate depression (HADS 10-14), and 9.6% had severe depression (HADS>15). Moreover, a significant difference has been observed between age and creatinine levels.  Conclusion: Around 10% of the patients had severe depression, which enhances the attention towards it. Multicenter studies should be conducted across Pakistan to identify the extent of the problem. </Text> </OtherText> <PublicationDate>20210901</PublicationDate> <RelatedWork> <RelationCode>81</RelationCode> <WorkIdentifier> <WorkIDType>01</WorkIDType> <IDValue>1-77</IDValue> </WorkIdentifier> </RelatedWork> <RelatedProduct> <RelationCode>89</RelationCode> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>01</ProductIDType> <IDValue>1-77-561-g713</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> </RelatedProduct> </ContentItem> </DOISerialArticleWork> <DOISerialArticleWork> <NotificationType>06</NotificationType> <DOI>10.29052/IJEHSR.v9.i3.2021.343-351</DOI> <DOIWebsiteLink>https://aeirc-edu.com/ojs14/index.php/IJEHSR/article/view/319</DOIWebsiteLink> <DOIStructuralType>Abstraction</DOIStructuralType> <RegistrantName>Advance Educational Institute and Research Center</RegistrantName> <RegistrationAuthority>mEDRA</RegistrationAuthority> <WorkIdentifier> <WorkIDType>01</WorkIDType> <IDValue>1-77-319</IDValue> </WorkIdentifier> <SerialPublication> <SerialWork> <Title textformat="00" language="eng"> <TitleType>01</TitleType> <TitleText>International Journal of Endorsing Health Science Research (IJEHSR)</TitleText> </Title> <Publisher> <PublishingRole>01</PublishingRole> <PublisherName>Advance Educational Institute and Research Center</PublisherName> </Publisher> <CountryOfPublication>PK</CountryOfPublication> </SerialWork> <SerialVersion> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>01</ProductIDType> <IDValue>1</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>07</ProductIDType> <IDValue>23103841</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> <ProductForm>JD</ProductForm> <EpubFormat>01</EpubFormat> <EpubFormatDescription>Open Journal Systems (OJS)</EpubFormatDescription> </SerialVersion> <SerialVersion> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>07</ProductIDType> <IDValue>23073748</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> <ProductForm>JB</ProductForm> </SerialVersion> </SerialPublication> <JournalIssue> <JournalVolumeNumber>9</JournalVolumeNumber> <JournalIssueNumber>3</JournalIssueNumber> <JournalIssueDesignation>Vol 9 No 3 (2021): International Journal of Endorsing Health Science Research</JournalIssueDesignation> <JournalIssueDate> <DateFormat>06</DateFormat> <Date>2021</Date> </JournalIssueDate> </JournalIssue> <ContentItem> <SequenceNumber>10</SequenceNumber> <TextItem> <PageRun> <FirstPageNumber>343</FirstPageNumber> <LastPageNumber>351</LastPageNumber> </PageRun> </TextItem> <Title textformat="00" language="eng"> <TitleType>01</TitleType> <TitleText>Association of maternal Serum Selenium Binding protein and its effect on fetal outcomes in Pregnancy Induced Hypertensive Disorders: A case-control study.</TitleText> </Title> <Contributor> <SequenceNumber>1</SequenceNumber> <ContributorRole>A01</ContributorRole> <PersonName>Sonya Arshad</PersonName> <PersonNameInverted>Arshad, Sonya</PersonNameInverted> <ProfessionalAffiliation> <Affiliation>1.

The cause of pre-eclampsia is unknown, but ischemic blood supply to the placenta stimulates the inflammatory process which leads to endothelial dysfunction and oxidative stress. Antioxidants like Selenium altered concentration involve in its pathogenesis. This study was proposed to find out the significance of Selenium as a biomarker in the pathophysiology of PIH disorders and its association with fetal outcomes.  Methodology: This case-control study was conducted on 240 pregnant women, 20-40 weeks of gestation, divided into four groups equally. Normotensive control, investigational group 1 PIH, 2 Pre-eclamptic, and 3 Eclamptic. A structured questionnaire was administered and arterial blood pressure was measured and the blood sample was done for serum Selenium assessment through ELISA. A urine sample was collected and the level of proteinuria was assessed. Fetal wellbeing and signs of growth restriction were observed using ultrasound reports.  Results: The mean age of the studied participants was 27.6 ± 5.3 years with the gestational age of 32.11 ± 4.56 weeks. The mean Serum Selenium levels (ng/ml) were significantly lower in investigational groups 67.93 ± 10.54 in PIH, 44.6 ± 13.19 in PE, and 36.38 ± 10.3 in Ec than 78.5 ± 8.2 control (p<0.05). The mean systolic, diastolic blood pressure and proteinuria were significantly high in case groups (p<0.05). Furthermore, we observed a significant inverse correlation of serum selenium with gestational age, systolic, diastolic blood pressure, proteinuria, fetal weight, and femur length in all four groups, whereas mainly positive significant correlation was elucidated with serum glutathione, PIH (r= 0.797, p<0.001), PE (r = 0.617, p>0.00), Ec (r=0.559, p=0.019) than control (r = 0.817, p<0.001).  Conclusion: It is concluded that serum selenium level is significantly reduced in Pregnancy-induced hypertensive disorders and it has markedly affected maternal and fetal outcomes. </Text> </OtherText> <PublicationDate>20210827</PublicationDate> <RelatedWork> <RelationCode>81</RelationCode> <WorkIdentifier> <WorkIDType>01</WorkIDType> <IDValue>1-77</IDValue> </WorkIdentifier> </RelatedWork> <RelatedProduct> <RelationCode>89</RelationCode> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>01</ProductIDType> <IDValue>1-77-319-g717</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> </RelatedProduct> </ContentItem> </DOISerialArticleWork> <DOISerialArticleWork> <NotificationType>06</NotificationType> <DOI>10.29052/IJEHSR.v9.i2.2021.263-269</DOI> <DOIWebsiteLink>https://aeirc-edu.com/ojs14/index.php/IJEHSR/article/view/672</DOIWebsiteLink> <DOIStructuralType>Abstraction</DOIStructuralType> <RegistrantName>Advance Educational Institute and Research Center</RegistrantName> <RegistrationAuthority>mEDRA</RegistrationAuthority> <WorkIdentifier> <WorkIDType>01</WorkIDType> <IDValue>1-73-672</IDValue> </WorkIdentifier> <SerialPublication> <SerialWork> <Title textformat="00" language="eng"> <TitleType>01</TitleType> <TitleText>International Journal of Endorsing Health Science Research (IJEHSR)</TitleText> </Title> <Publisher> <PublishingRole>01</PublishingRole> <PublisherName>Advance Educational Institute and Research Center</PublisherName> </Publisher> <CountryOfPublication>PK</CountryOfPublication> </SerialWork> <SerialVersion> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>01</ProductIDType> <IDValue>1</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>07</ProductIDType> <IDValue>23103841</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> <ProductForm>JD</ProductForm> <EpubFormat>01</EpubFormat> <EpubFormatDescription>Open Journal Systems (OJS)</EpubFormatDescription> </SerialVersion> <SerialVersion> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>07</ProductIDType> <IDValue>23073748</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> <ProductForm>JB</ProductForm> </SerialVersion> </SerialPublication> <JournalIssue> <JournalVolumeNumber>9</JournalVolumeNumber> <JournalIssueNumber>2</JournalIssueNumber> <JournalIssueDesignation>Vol 9 No 2 (2021): International Journal of Endorsing Health Science Research</JournalIssueDesignation> <JournalIssueDate> <DateFormat>06</DateFormat> <Date>2021</Date> </JournalIssueDate> </JournalIssue> <ContentItem> <SequenceNumber>1</SequenceNumber> <TextItem> <PageRun> <FirstPageNumber>263</FirstPageNumber> <LastPageNumber>269</LastPageNumber> </PageRun> </TextItem> <Title textformat="00" language="eng"> <TitleType>01</TitleType> <TitleText>Effects of Sphinx Pose (Salamba Bhujangasana) Yoga on chronic low back pain</TitleText> </Title> <Contributor> <SequenceNumber>1</SequenceNumber> <ContributorRole>A01</ContributorRole> <PersonName>Yusra Saleem</PersonName> <PersonNameInverted>Saleem, Yusra</PersonNameInverted> <ProfessionalAffiliation> <Affiliation>Psychophysiology Research Lab, MAHQ Biological Research Centre, University of Karachi, Karachi-Pakistan</Affiliation> </ProfessionalAffiliation> </Contributor> <Contributor> <SequenceNumber>2</SequenceNumber> <ContributorRole>A01</ContributorRole> <PersonName>Shamoon Noushad</PersonName> <PersonNameInverted>Noushad, Shamoon</PersonNameInverted> <ProfessionalAffiliation> <Affiliation>1.

The use of complementary and alternative medicinal (CAM) therapies for the management of LBP have rapidly gained popularity, where Yoga is being widely used as mind-body CAM therapy for relieving back pain. The aim is to assess the effectiveness of Sphinx Yoga Pose (Salamba Bhujangasana), in managing CLBP and to measure the variations in the disability index, quality of life, and stress scores.  Methodology: A randomized controlled clinical trial will be conducted including the Nurses and midwives. Numerical Pain Rating (NPR) Scale, Roland Morris Disability Questionnaire, Fear Avoidance Beliefs Questionnaire (FABQ) will be used for initial screening. Subjects meeting inclusion criteria will be randomly assigned to either of the study group i.e. Group A (Experimental) and Group B (Control). The Group A subjects will be assigned with Sphinx Yoga therapy for 12 weeks while group B subjects will be assigned to usual care. Pre and post samples will be collected for Substance P (SP), Beta Endorphins (β-Endorphin), and Cortisol. Moreover, Oswestry Low Back Pain Disability index, World Health Organization Quality of Life (WHOQOL) and Sadaf Stress Scale (SSS), will be used at baseline and after 12 weeks follow-up (post-intervention).  Discussion: Offering a 12-week Yoga therapy to the subjects with CLBP might give an insight into its application and efficacy. To be precise, the findings of this research will support the wider implementation of Sphinx Yoga as a lifestyle intervention.  Trial registration: The trial was registered with ClinicalTrials.gov (NCT04721639). </Text> </OtherText> <PublicationDate>20210601</PublicationDate> <RelatedWork> <RelationCode>81</RelationCode> <WorkIdentifier> <WorkIDType>01</WorkIDType> <IDValue>1-73</IDValue> </WorkIdentifier> </RelatedWork> <RelatedProduct> <RelationCode>89</RelationCode> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>01</ProductIDType> <IDValue>1-73-672-g682</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> </RelatedProduct> </ContentItem> </DOISerialArticleWork> <DOISerialArticleWork> <NotificationType>06</NotificationType> <DOI>10.29052/IJEHSR.v9.i2.2021.238-247</DOI> <DOIWebsiteLink>https://aeirc-edu.com/ojs14/index.php/IJEHSR/article/view/636</DOIWebsiteLink> <DOIStructuralType>Abstraction</DOIStructuralType> <RegistrantName>Advance Educational Institute and Research Center</RegistrantName> <RegistrationAuthority>mEDRA</RegistrationAuthority> <WorkIdentifier> <WorkIDType>01</WorkIDType> <IDValue>1-73-636</IDValue> </WorkIdentifier> <SerialPublication> <SerialWork> <Title textformat="00" language="eng"> <TitleType>01</TitleType> <TitleText>International Journal of Endorsing Health Science Research (IJEHSR)</TitleText> </Title> <Publisher> <PublishingRole>01</PublishingRole> <PublisherName>Advance Educational Institute and Research Center</PublisherName> </Publisher> <CountryOfPublication>PK</CountryOfPublication> </SerialWork> <SerialVersion> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>01</ProductIDType> <IDValue>1</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>07</ProductIDType> <IDValue>23103841</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> <ProductForm>JD</ProductForm> <EpubFormat>01</EpubFormat> <EpubFormatDescription>Open Journal Systems (OJS)</EpubFormatDescription> </SerialVersion> <SerialVersion> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>07</ProductIDType> <IDValue>23073748</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> <ProductForm>JB</ProductForm> </SerialVersion> </SerialPublication> <JournalIssue> <JournalVolumeNumber>9</JournalVolumeNumber> <JournalIssueNumber>2</JournalIssueNumber> <JournalIssueDesignation>Vol 9 No 2 (2021): International Journal of Endorsing Health Science Research</JournalIssueDesignation> <JournalIssueDate> <DateFormat>06</DateFormat> <Date>2021</Date> </JournalIssueDate> </JournalIssue> <ContentItem> <SequenceNumber>16</SequenceNumber> <TextItem> <PageRun> <FirstPageNumber>238</FirstPageNumber> <LastPageNumber>247</LastPageNumber> </PageRun> </TextItem> <Title textformat="00" language="eng"> <TitleType>01</TitleType> <TitleText>Evaluation of antimicrobial potential of partially purified proteins/peptide of Yellow Scorpion Buthus sindicus against Carbapenem-Resistant Acinetobactor baumannii and Pseudomonas aeruginosa.</TitleText> </Title> <Contributor> <SequenceNumber>1</SequenceNumber> <ContributorRole>A01</ContributorRole> <PersonName>Sehrish Urooj</PersonName> <PersonNameInverted>Urooj, Sehrish</PersonNameInverted> <ProfessionalAffiliation> <Affiliation>Department of Biochemistry, Institute of Basic Sciences, DUHS, Karachi-Pakistan.</Affiliation> </ProfessionalAffiliation> </Contributor> <Contributor> <SequenceNumber>2</SequenceNumber> <ContributorRole>A01</ContributorRole> <PersonName>Rafat Amin</PersonName> <PersonNameInverted>Amin, Rafat</PersonNameInverted> <ProfessionalAffiliation> <Affiliation>Department of Pathology, Dow College of Pharmacy, DUHS, Karachi-Pakistan.</Affiliation> </ProfessionalAffiliation> </Contributor> <Contributor> <SequenceNumber>3</SequenceNumber> <ContributorRole>A01</ContributorRole> <PersonName>Zeba Haque</PersonName> <PersonNameInverted>Haque, Zeba</PersonNameInverted> <ProfessionalAffiliation> <Affiliation>Department of Biochemistry, Institute of Basic Biomedical Sciences, DUHS, Karachi-Pakistan.</Affiliation> </ProfessionalAffiliation> </Contributor> <Language> <LanguageRole>01</LanguageRole> <LanguageCode>eng</LanguageCode> </Language> <Subject> <SubjectSchemeIdentifier>23</SubjectSchemeIdentifier> <SubjectHeadingText>Antimicrobial Resistance, Buthus Sindicus, Multidrug Resistant Pathogens, Scorpion Venom, Antimicrobial Activity</SubjectHeadingText> </Subject> <OtherText> <TextTypeCode>01</TextTypeCode> <Text textformat="00" language="eng"> Background: Increasing antimicrobial resistance of microbes is one of the leading challenges faced by the medical community and human health. This study focused on a local scorpion species (Buthus sindicus) of Pakistan known for its potent antibiotic properties against Carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii and Pseudomonas aeruginosa.  Methodology: Venom extracted from Buthus sindicus tested against Carbapenem-resistant A. baumannii and P. aeruginosa in both crude and partially purified forms. The antibacterial Screening was performed by the Agar-disc diffusion method, using different concentrations of venom while using commercially available antibiotics as positive controls.  Results: Among both two species P. aeruginosa and A. baumannii, were tested, there is no zone of inhibition found in any form of Buthus sindicus in the Disc Diffusion Method. Scorpion venom was processed with deionized water, PBS, and Tris-HCl and observed no difference in antibacterial activity.  Conclusion: Our study concluded that no antimicrobial activity was found against any selected drug-resistant pathogens in the venom of Buthus sindicus, probably because of the lack of disulphide bonds. </Text> </OtherText> <PublicationDate>20210601</PublicationDate> <RelatedWork> <RelationCode>81</RelationCode> <WorkIdentifier> <WorkIDType>01</WorkIDType> <IDValue>1-73</IDValue> </WorkIdentifier> </RelatedWork> <RelatedProduct> <RelationCode>89</RelationCode> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>01</ProductIDType> <IDValue>1-73-636-g701</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> </RelatedProduct> </ContentItem> </DOISerialArticleWork> <DOISerialArticleWork> <NotificationType>06</NotificationType> <DOI>10.29052/IJEHSR.v9.i2.2021.257-262</DOI> <DOIWebsiteLink>https://aeirc-edu.com/ojs14/index.php/IJEHSR/article/view/632</DOIWebsiteLink> <DOIStructuralType>Abstraction</DOIStructuralType> <RegistrantName>Advance Educational Institute and Research Center</RegistrantName> <RegistrationAuthority>mEDRA</RegistrationAuthority> <WorkIdentifier> <WorkIDType>01</WorkIDType> <IDValue>1-73-632</IDValue> </WorkIdentifier> <SerialPublication> <SerialWork> <Title textformat="00" language="eng"> <TitleType>01</TitleType> <TitleText>International Journal of Endorsing Health Science Research (IJEHSR)</TitleText> </Title> <Publisher> <PublishingRole>01</PublishingRole> <PublisherName>Advance Educational Institute and Research Center</PublisherName> </Publisher> <CountryOfPublication>PK</CountryOfPublication> </SerialWork> <SerialVersion> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>01</ProductIDType> <IDValue>1</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>07</ProductIDType> <IDValue>23103841</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> <ProductForm>JD</ProductForm> <EpubFormat>01</EpubFormat> <EpubFormatDescription>Open Journal Systems (OJS)</EpubFormatDescription> </SerialVersion> <SerialVersion> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>07</ProductIDType> <IDValue>23073748</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> <ProductForm>JB</ProductForm> </SerialVersion> </SerialPublication> <JournalIssue> <JournalVolumeNumber>9</JournalVolumeNumber> <JournalIssueNumber>2</JournalIssueNumber> <JournalIssueDesignation>Vol 9 No 2 (2021): International Journal of Endorsing Health Science Research</JournalIssueDesignation> <JournalIssueDate> <DateFormat>06</DateFormat> <Date>2021</Date> </JournalIssueDate> </JournalIssue> <ContentItem> <SequenceNumber>2</SequenceNumber> <TextItem> <PageRun> <FirstPageNumber>257</FirstPageNumber> <LastPageNumber>262</LastPageNumber> </PageRun> </TextItem> <Title textformat="00" language="eng"> <TitleType>01</TitleType> <TitleText>Role of COVID-19 Genotype in Pathogenesis</TitleText> </Title> <Contributor> <SequenceNumber>1</SequenceNumber> <ContributorRole>A01</ContributorRole> <PersonName>Mehnaz Tanveer</PersonName> <PersonNameInverted>Tanveer, Mehnaz</PersonNameInverted> <ProfessionalAffiliation> <Affiliation>Contract Pharmaceutical, Mississauga-Canada.</Affiliation> </ProfessionalAffiliation> </Contributor> <Contributor> <SequenceNumber>2</SequenceNumber> <ContributorRole>A01</ContributorRole> <PersonName>Syed A Aziz</PersonName> <PersonNameInverted>Aziz, Syed A</PersonNameInverted> <ProfessionalAffiliation> <Affiliation>Faculty of Medicine, Department of Pathology and Lab Medicine University of Ottawa-Canada.</Affiliation> </ProfessionalAffiliation> </Contributor> <Language> <LanguageRole>01</LanguageRole> <LanguageCode>eng</LanguageCode> </Language> <Subject> <SubjectSchemeIdentifier>23</SubjectSchemeIdentifier> <SubjectHeadingText>COVID-19, Pandemic, Coronavirus, Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome, AEC-2</SubjectHeadingText> </Subject> <OtherText> <TextTypeCode>01</TextTypeCode> <Text textformat="00" language="eng"> Background: Corona viruses are not new to us, and there are 15 different variants known to us. In the last 20 years, this is the fourth coronavirus outbreak, and severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) seems to be the deadliest among all, with the ability to continue producing more contagious variants. In this mini-review, we highlighted the genotypic variance of the pathogenesis of COVID-19.  Methodology: The article tracks the history and the genotypic variance of Corona virus. The literature was searched using the terms COVID-19, SARS-CoV-2, Corona virus, genotypic variance etc. via Google Scholar, and PubMed.  Results: Comparative modelling and molecular studies revealed some essential variations in the intermolecular interaction between Angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE-2) alleles and SARS-CoV-2 spike protein. This shows an interesting result for two ACE-2 alleles, rs73635825 (S19P) and rs143936283 (E329G), their low binding affinity and lack of some of the critical residues in the complex formation with SARS-CoV-2 spike protein. This may be suggestive of intrinsic resistance to some scale against the SARS-CoV-2 infection.  Conclusion: The SARS-CoV-2 S protein appears to be a promising immunogen for protection, but its role in preventing transmission is still unclear. </Text> </OtherText> <PublicationDate>20210601</PublicationDate> <RelatedWork> <RelationCode>81</RelationCode> <WorkIdentifier> <WorkIDType>01</WorkIDType>

textformat="00" language="eng"> Background: Human papillomavirus (HPV) association has effectively been decoded in prostate cancer (PC) worldwide with controverting conclusions. Though the different groups of researchers explored the potential association of HPV with PC using meta-analysis but it still remains controversial due to the major limitations. Therefore, the present study was designed to investigate the potential link of HPV with PC using Bradford Hill criteria.  Methodology: Initially using PubMed, we extracted studies that associated HPV to PC. Then, to assess the potential association of HPV with PC, an examination of the available data on HPV in PC, normal/benign samples was conducted using all the major Bradford Hill criteria postulates. Furthermore, to improve the authenticity of the present study, we have also critically evaluated the methodologies of the identified studies to check the possibility of false-negative and false-positive results.  Results: After a careful assessment of the previous studies against Bradford Hill criteria postulates, we observed that all the major postulates were not fulfilled, including strength, temporality, consistency, plausibility, biological gradient, experiment, specificity, and analogy.  Conclusion: The findings of this systematic review suggest no casual association of HPV with PC. </Text> </OtherText> <PublicationDate>20210601</PublicationDate> <RelatedWork> <RelationCode>81</RelationCode> <WorkIdentifier> <WorkIDType>01</WorkIDType> <IDValue>1-73</IDValue>

language="eng"> Background: After the introduction of simulators in urology, urology education has evolved significantly. The development of Transurethral Resection of Prostate (TURP) skills has shifted to simulator-based learning from being directly on patients. We evaluated the outcome of simulation-based teaching of TURP procedural skills on virtual reality simulator and objectively assessed the operative skills on the Global Rating Scale (GRS).  Methodology: In this prospective comparative study, high fidelity (VirtaMed | UroSim™) simulator was used. A total of 17 participants were enrolled in this study, 4 were urology faculty members, and 13 were post-graduate urology trainees. All participants performed five attempts of real-time TURP complete procedure and were allowed to resect the maximum possible prostate tissue (goal ≥ 85%). Skills were assessed in terms of resection, bleeding control and safety parameters. Objective assessment of simulative operative skills was done on GRS score sheets by faculty, based on the Global Rating Index for Technical Skills (GRITS) and OSATS. The data from the 1st and 5th attempts of all participants was analyzed on SPSS version 22.0.  Results: There was statistically significant difference in the mean resection score at 1st attempt between faculty and trainees i.e. 112±8.6 and 86.69±9.95, respectively (p<0.01), while the scores were comparative by the 5th attempt. All the enrolled members resected >80% of prostate volume (40 score points). Similarly, for the parameters associated with bleeding control, there was a significant difference in the bleeding control, lost blood and remaining bleeders between trainees and faculty members (p<0.01) at 1st attempt while on 5th attempt, the outcomes were comparative in both groups. The objective assessment of operative skills of the trainee’s displayed improvement in all 5 parameters including tissue injury, movement and time, instrument application, surgical process and surgical details.  Conclusion: Simulation-based TURP teaching significantly improves simulative operative skills in resection, bleeding control and safety parameters. GRS is an effective tool in assessing simulative operative skills and may evaluate endo-urological procedural training in urology trainees periodically. </Text> </OtherText> <PublicationDate>20210601</PublicationDate> <RelatedWork> <RelationCode>81</RelationCode> <WorkIdentifier> <WorkIDType>01</WorkIDType> <IDValue>1-73</IDValue> </WorkIdentifier> </RelatedWork> <RelatedProduct> <RelationCode>89</RelationCode> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>01</ProductIDType> <IDValue>1-73-594-g679</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> </RelatedProduct> </ContentItem> </DOISerialArticleWork> <DOISerialArticleWork> <NotificationType>06</NotificationType> <DOI>10.29052/IJEHSR.v9.i2.2021.184-189</DOI> <DOIWebsiteLink>https://aeirc-edu.com/ojs14/index.php/IJEHSR/article/view/586</DOIWebsiteLink> <DOIStructuralType>Abstraction</DOIStructuralType> <RegistrantName>Advance Educational Institute and Research Center</RegistrantName> <RegistrationAuthority>mEDRA</RegistrationAuthority> <WorkIdentifier> <WorkIDType>01</WorkIDType> <IDValue>1-73-586</IDValue> </WorkIdentifier> <SerialPublication> <SerialWork> <Title textformat="00" language="eng"> <TitleType>01</TitleType> <TitleText>International Journal of Endorsing Health Science Research (IJEHSR)</TitleText> </Title> <Publisher> <PublishingRole>01</PublishingRole> <PublisherName>Advance Educational Institute and Research Center</PublisherName> </Publisher> <CountryOfPublication>PK</CountryOfPublication> </SerialWork> <SerialVersion> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>01</ProductIDType> <IDValue>1</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>07</ProductIDType> <IDValue>23103841</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> <ProductForm>JD</ProductForm> <EpubFormat>01</EpubFormat> <EpubFormatDescription>Open Journal Systems (OJS)</EpubFormatDescription> </SerialVersion> <SerialVersion> <ProductIdentifier> <ProductIDType>07</ProductIDType> <IDValue>23073748</IDValue> </ProductIdentifier> <ProductForm>JB</ProductForm> </SerialVersion> </SerialPublication> <JournalIssue> <JournalVolumeNumber>9</JournalVolumeNumber> <JournalIssueNumber>2</JournalIssueNumber> <JournalIssueDesignation>Vol 9 No 2 (2021): International Journal of Endorsing Health Science Research</JournalIssueDesignation> <JournalIssueDate> <DateFormat>06</DateFormat> <Date>2021</Date> </JournalIssueDate> </JournalIssue> <ContentItem> <SequenceNumber>7</SequenceNumber> <TextItem> <PageRun> <FirstPageNumber>184</FirstPageNumber> <LastPageNumber>189</LastPageNumber> </PageRun> </TextItem> <Title textformat="00" language="eng"> <TitleType>01</TitleType> <TitleText>Evaluating the impact of performance appraisal on doctor’s task and contextual performance: A view of public sector hospitals in Karachi, Pakistan.</TitleText> </Title> <Contributor> <SequenceNumber>1</SequenceNumber> <ContributorRole>A01</ContributorRole> <PersonName>Munaza Bibi</PersonName> <PersonNameInverted>Bibi, Munaza</PersonNameInverted> <ProfessionalAffiliation> <Affiliation>Bahria Business School, Bahria University, Karachi- Pakistan.</Affiliation> </ProfessionalAffiliation> </Contributor> <Contributor> <SequenceNumber>2</SequenceNumber> <ContributorRole>A01</ContributorRole> <PersonName>Rafique Ahmed Khan</PersonName> <PersonNameInverted>Khan, Rafique Ahmed</PersonNameInverted> <ProfessionalAffiliation> <Affiliation>Bahria Business School, Bahria University, Karachi- Pakistan.</Affiliation> </ProfessionalAffiliation> </Contributor> <Language> <LanguageRole>01</LanguageRole> <LanguageCode>eng</LanguageCode> </Language> <Subject> <SubjectSchemeIdentifier>23</SubjectSchemeIdentifier> <SubjectHeadingText>Doctor’s Task Performance, Doctor’s Contextual Performance, Performance Appraisal</SubjectHeadingText> </Subject> <OtherText> <TextTypeCode>01</TextTypeCode> <Text textformat="00" language="eng"> Background: Performance appraisal is an essential function implemented by the healthcare organization to gauge an individual's performance while delivering quality care. The present study aimed to evaluate the interrelationship between appraisal and the doctor’s task performance measures.  Methodology: A causal study was conducted on a sample of 270 doctors working at Dr. Ruth Pfau Civil Hospital and Jinnah Postgraduate Medical Centre (JPMC) in Karachi, using a deductive approach. An adapted questionnaire was used to examine the specified variables concerning appraisal, task and contextual performance. The collected data was examined using Analysis of Moment Structures (AMOS) and SPSS version 20.0.  Results: There was a significant impact of performance appraisal on doctor’s task performance and contextual performance as indicated by the study results. A moderate significant relationship was observed between performance appraisal and doctor’s task performance (r = 0.383; p<0.01), while a strong significant relationship was detected between performance appraisal and doctor's contextual performance (r=0.874; p<0.01).  Conclusion: It is concluded that the implemented performance appraisal practices influence doctor's task performance and

<TextTypeCode>01</TextTypeCode> <Text textformat="00" language="eng"> Background: Lactational breast abscess is attributed to higher morbidities among women, specifically from developing countries. Though many treatment options are available, still consensus regarding the modality yielding the best outcome is scarce. The study's objective was to compare the outcome of lactational breast abscess following incision & drainage (ID) versus ultrasound-guided needle aspiration (USGNA).  Methodology: This prospective comparative investigation was carried upon a sample of 59 female patients with lactational breast abscess (chosen via non-probability, consecutive sampling), presenting to the Department of Surgery at Liaquat University Hospital, Hyderabad. The patients were divided into two groups, namely Group A (ID) and Group B (USGNA). Data was documented using a structured questionnaire, including inquiries related to sociodemographic details, disease specifics, and treatment outcomes (mainly abscess resolution, uninterrupted breastfeeding and fistula formation).  Results: The results showed that 3 patients (5.08%) from group A developed mammary fistula, 26 (44.06%) with complete resolution, and only 1 (1.69%) patient attained uninterrupted breastfeeding. In group B, there was full resolution in 28 (47.45%) patients, and the abscess of 2 (3.38%) patients did not completely resolve, while 28 (47.45%) attained uninterrupted breastfeeding.  Conclusion: It can be concluded that USGNA yields a better outcome in the treatment of lactational breast abscess in terms of lesser incidence of fistula development, the better probability of complete resolution and a significantly higher rate of attainments of the ability to breastfeed uninterruptedly.  </Text> </OtherText> <PublicationDate>20210601</PublicationDate> <RelatedWork>

Resonance Spectroscopic Imaging (MRSI) can diagnose brain lesions and help manage several diseases. It has the advantage of differentiating neoplastic brain lesions from non-neoplastic brain lesions based on metabolic changes of the brain. The present study focuses on Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy (MRS) assessment accuracy in the diagnosis of brain lesions.  Methodology: A prospective, non-probability, consecutive sampling study was conducted at the Neurospinal & Cancer care institute, Karachi-Pakistan, from June 2017 to September 2020. A total of 161 patients with brain space-occupying lesions shown on MRI brain contrast and associated with clinical symptoms of headache, fits, or limb weakness was included in the study. The single voxel method was used for MRS; after contrast. MRI was used to localize the pathology in the brain, and the voxel was used in the area of heed interest.  Results Spectroscopy interpretation showed that 114(70.8%) patients were diagnosed with a brain tumour, 41 (25.46%) had a non-neoplastic entity, and 6 (3.72%) were reported as non-specified. MR Spectroscopy reported non-neoplastic entities in 41 (25.46%) patients by spectroscopy. among them, 39(95.12%) patients had decreased choline, NAA and creatinine peaks, raised lactate peak 16(39.02%), lipid peaks 20(48.78%), while in 4 (9.75%) patients the peaks were absent.  Conclusion: This study recommends that MR spectroscopy has a high accuracy for the diagnostic purpose of neoplastic and non-neoplastic, which is 91.33% which can affect the course of the treatment plan and it can help to avoid unnecessary delay in management. </Text> </OtherText>

language="eng"> Background: Bone marrow analysis is an invasive practice applicable to identifying, staging, and pursuing tumours. The present study aimed to determine the frequency of malignant hematological disorders using bone marrow aspirate and biopsy at Dr. Ishrat ul Ebad Khan Institute of Blood Diseases (DIEKIBD).  Methodology: In this retrospective study, 756 patient records were examined for bone marrow analysis including both aspiration & biopsy, from January 2014 to December 2018. The posterior superior iliac crest was preferred for bone marrow sampling and aspiration was done with the help of a Salah bone marrow needle.  Results: It was observed that about half of the bone marrow examinations, i.e. 362 (47%), were carried out for tumour staging. Of which 260 (71.8%) were not compromised by primary diseases, while 102 (28.17%) cases contained primary diseases. Among non-malignant hematological disorders, megaloblastic anemia and mixed deficiency anemia were the most frequent, i.e. 24 (3.1%) each. In comparison, chronic myeloid leukemia and chronic lymphocytic leukemia were the most prevalent malignant hematological disorders 42(5.5%) each.  Conclusion: As per the study results, the pathological analysis of bone marrow via aspirate and trephine biopsy has comparatively more significant value in diagnosing and staging the malignant disorders than the non-malignant disorders.
