قاضی عبدالودود بطورمرتِّب و مدوِّن
No full textTadveen of Urdu texts during the 20th century has been carried out simultaneously, and often con-currently, at various centers of learning in different cities and provinces /states in India and Pakistan. These include Deccan, Lahore, Karachi, Delhi, Lucnow, Raam Pur and Patna etc, where it was carried out and these centres/Cities determine its characteristics and tendencies. Any study of the tradition of Tadveen e Matn in Urdu has to take into account these centres as a whole describing their history as well as characteristics and evolution. These centres can be described as "Dabsitaan" in the tradition of Tadveen e Matn. Among these centres the Patna Dabistan has its own characteristics. Qazi Abdul Wadood is the main Mudavin of this center. In this article Dr. MUhammad Khan Ashraf and Dr. Azmt Rubab narrate and analyse the charactersitics and methods of Qazi Abdul Wadood's editing and Works

ترک جامعات میں اردو زبان و ادب کی تدریس
No full textThe teaching of Urdu was started in Turkey in 1915. Istanbul University was the pioneer in this effort. The love of Turks for Urdu was the basic reason. During the last one hundred years, the teaching of Urdu language and literature has spread and so there are the full fledged Urdu departments in three Turkish universities i.e., Istanbul, Ankara and Konia. Department of Urdu, Istanbul University, in collaboration with Istanbul City Govt. held an International seminar to commemorate 100 years of Urdu teaching on 12-14 Oct 2015. Dr. Azmat Rubab and Dr. M. K. Ashraf participated in this Seminar. This paper was presented during this Seminar. It gives a survey of the Urdu language and literature teaching carried out in these Universities during this period
Spitzer Photometry of Approximately 1 Million Stars in M31 and 15 Other Galaxies
No full textWe present Spitzer IRAC 3.6-8 micrometer and Multiband Imaging Photometer 24 micrometer point-source catalogs for M31 and 15 other mostly large, star-forming galaxies at distances approximately 3.5-14 Mpc, including M51, M83, M101, and NGC 6946. These catalogs contain approximately 1 million sources including approximately 859,000 in M31 and approximately 116,000 in the other galaxies. They were created following the procedures described in Khan et al. through a combination of pointspread function (PSF) fitting and aperture photometry. These data products constitute a resource to improve our understanding of the IR-bright (3.6-24 micrometer) point-source populations in crowded extragalactic stellar fields and to plan observations with the James Webb Space Telescope
Developmental Surveillance and Screening Practices By Pediatric Primary Care Providers
No full textThis study used a survey approach to investigate current developmental surveillance and developmental screening practices by pediatric primary care providers in a diverse New Jersey county. A total of 217 providers were contacted with a final sample size of 57 pediatric primary care respondents from 13 different municipalities. Most providers (73.7%) began developmental surveillance at the first non-hospital health supervision visit, usually at ages three to five days of life. About half (51.8%) of responding providers did surveillance and/or screening at all health encounters, while the remaining providers (48.2%) did surveillance and/or screening at only well child visits. The majority (63.6%) of providers report using a formal tool for developmental screening. There was variation in the particular developmental tool used for screening which included the use of both standardized formal and non-standardized, informal tools. Disparities in practice were associated with the patient’s type of insurance, age at surveillance and/or screening initiation, and the time frame of surveillance and screening. Implications for early intervention practice are discussed.Do not know embargo policyPeer reviewe
Prevalence of underweight in people with severe mental illness: systematic review and meta-analysis
No full textIntroduction: people with severe mental illness (SMI) have a higher prevalence of obesity as compared with the general population, however there is mixed evidence about the prevalence of underweight. Thus, the aim of this study is to determine the pooled prevalence of underweight in people with SMI and its association with socio-demographic factors; and to compare the prevalence of underweight between SMI and the general population.Methods: MEDLINE, PsycINFO, and EMBASE databases were searched to identify observational studies assessing the prevalence of underweight in adults with SMI (schizophrenia, major depressive disorder with psychotic features, and bipolar disorders). Screening, data extraction and risk of bias assessments were performed independently by two co-authors, with disagreements resolved by consensus. Random effect estimates for the pooled prevalence of underweight and the pooled odds of underweight in people with SMI compared with the general population were calculated. Subgroup analyses were conducted for type of SMI, setting, antipsychotic medication, region of the world, World Bank country income classification, data collection and sex. Result: 40 estimates from 22 countries were included. The pooled prevalence of underweight in people with SMI was 3.8% (95% C.I. = 2.9-5.0). People with SMI were less likely to be underweight than the general population (OR 0.65; 95% C.I. = 0.4-1.0). The pooled prevalence of underweight in SMI in South Asia was 7.5% (95%C.I. = 5.8-14.1) followed by Europe and Central Asia at 5.2% (95%C.I. = 3.2-8.1) and North America at 1.8% (95%C.I. = 1.2-2.6). Conclusion: people with SMI have lower odds of being underweight compared to the general population. People with schizophrenia had the highest prevalence of underweight compared to other types of SMI. Japan and South Asia have the highest prevalence of underweight in people with SMI. <br/
Prevalence, Viral Load Dynamics, and Factors Influencing SARS-CoV-2 Infection: A Cross-sectional Study in Lahore, Pakistan
No full textBackground: The pandemic caused by novel coronavirus has caused disaster worldwide and impacted the clinical settings with huge burden. The virus presented with diverse patterns of severity and the gold standard testing for corona virus was real-time PCR. Methods: This study aimed to understand the impact of the coronavirus healthcare crisis by examining SARSCoV-2 prevalence and viral load patterns. A substantial population sample from Lahore's diagnostic center was analyzed. A total of 17,260 samples were received out of which 1548 samples were meticulously analyzed to study the distribution of SARS-CoV-2 patients by age group and gender between October 2021 and December 2022. CT ranges in positive cases were examined across various age groups. Descriptive statistics for viral load, factoring in gender, age, and vaccination status, were reported. To comprehensively assess the influence of gender and age on viral load, a multivariate analysis employing two-way ANOVA was conducted, yielding valuable insights. Results: Among the sampled individuals, the positive patients (n=1250, 80.7%) were predominantly male (mean age 36.08 years), while females (n=298, 19.3%) had a mean age of 37.69. The positivity prevalence was 8.96% with CT values spanning 12 to 35. Mainly, cases occurred in CT ranges 26-30 (29.97%) and 31-35 (28.43%). Males showed higher mean viral load (25.88 ± 5.75) than females (23.25 ± 4.94). Age groups didn't significantly alter viral load; vaccination showed no significant viral load association. Gender and age collectively influenced viral load dynamics per multiple logistic regression. Conclusion: The study emphasizes the significant SARS-CoV-2 burden and the necessity for sustained surveillance and prevention. Gender and age impacted viral load dynamics, while vaccination's direct influence was inconclusive. Investigating the intricate relationship between gender, age, viral load, and outcomes is warranted for improved epidemiological comprehension and effective prevention strategies.Ali Ahsan, Zahra Kalim, Muhammad Abdul Qadeer, Muhammad Saif Ullah Khan, Muhammad Imran, Muhammad Anees Sharif, Kiran Jalil, Zoha Rubab, and Chaudhry Ahmed Shabbi
