An Empirical Examination of Relationship between Pareto Principle and Stages of Leadership at University Level Ayaz Muhammad Khan*
Full text linkThe leading purpose of the current paper was to explore the relationship between Pareto Principle and stages of Leadership Proposed by inordinate leadership expert J.C Maxwell. Through a multistage sampling technique, (N=213) dyads were chosen to support this empirical evidence to the theory. The paradigm of the study was positivism; quantitative method and survey design were used to collect data through two structured questionnaires Leadership level assessment questionnaire (for subordinates) and Pareto Principle questionnaire (for leaders). It was hypothesized that there was no significant relationship between the Pareto Principle and five levels of leadership proposed by Maxwell. The results of the current paper signposted that, “there was a significant relationship between the Pareto Principle and Five levels of leadership” Proposed by J.C. Maxwell. All the five stages were significantly correlated with the coefficient Pinnacle (r=.46), People Development (r=.37), Production (r=.41), Permission (r=.42), and Position (r=.46). Additional findings were reconnoitred that, People development level has literature support having relationship Pareto Principle with five levels of leadership

Incidence of Nephropathy After Spontaneous Bacterial Peritonitis in Decompensated Liver Cirrhosis at Muhammad Teaching Hospital, Peshawar: A Single Institution Descriptive Cross-Sectional Study
Full text linkObjective: To determine the incidence of nephropathy after spontaneous bacterial peritonitis in patients with
decompensated liver cirrhosis.
Study Design: Descriptive cross-sectional study.
Place and Duration of Study: This study was conducted at the Department of Medicine, Muhammad Teaching
Hospital (MTH), Peshawar, Pakistan from November 1st, 2024, to April 30th 2025.
Methods: A total of one hundred and ten (110) patients were part of the current study. This sample size was
obtained by using the WHO sample size calculator, for which a reference study was considered having a
frequency of renal impairment in about 83.3% of patients who had developed decompensated liver cirrhosis
followed by spontaneous bacterial peritonitis. Consecutive, non-probability sampling technique was used. The
confidence interval was equal to 95% while error margin was equal to 6% to calculate the size.
Results: Participants of the study were adults, and the minimum age was 18, whereas the oldest was 60 years,
with a mean of 46.436 ± 6.81 years. As chronic liver disease patients were selected, they had a prolonged
history of decompensated cirrhosis of the liver (mean duration was 8.845 ± 2.38 months). Gender classification
of 110 participants was done, in which males were 91 (82.7%) and females were 19 (17.3%). Nephropathy
(Renal impairment) was observed in 33 (30%) of patients after spontaneous bacterial peritonitis in
decompensated liver cirrhosis.
Conclusion: In this study, the results showed that overall, there was 30% renal impairment in the observed
cases. They were more prominent in Child's Pugh C cirrhosis liver compared to Class A or B cirrhosis liver
because of the development of ascites.

Hybrid ML/DL Approach to Optimize Mid-Term Electrical Load Forecasting for Smart Buildings
Full text linkMost electric energy consumption in the building sector is provided by fossil fuels, leading to high greenhouse gas emissions. However, the increasing need for sustainable infrastructure has triggered a significant trend toward smart buildings, which enable optimal and efficient resource usage. In this context, accurate mid-term energy load forecasting is crucial for energy management. This study proposes a hybrid forecasting model obtained through the combination of machine learning (ML) and deep learning (DL) approaches designed to enhance forecasting accuracy at an hourly granularity. The hybrid two-layer architecture first investigates the model's performance individually, such as decision tree (DT), random forest (RF), support vector regression (SVR), Extreme Gradient Boosting (XGBoost), FireNet, and long short-term memory (LSTM), and then combines them to leverage their complementary strengths in a two-layer hybrid design. The performance of these models is assessed on smart building energy datasets with weather data, and their accuracy is measured through performance metrics such as mean squared error (MSE), root mean squared error (RMSE), and R-squared (R2). The collected results show that the XGBoost outperformed other ML models. However, the hybrid model obtained by combining FireNet and XGBoost models delivers the highest overall accuracy for the performance parameters. These findings highlight the effectiveness of hybrid models in terms of prediction accuracy. This research contributes to reliable energy forecasting and supports environmentally sustainable practices
