    Patients Perceptions of Doctors Empathy in MMCH *Aiman Mustafa, **Muhammad Zeeshan Zafar, ***Muhammad Asad Khan *Muhammad Medical College, Mirpurkhas, **Rashid Latif Medical College, ***Kind Edward Medical University.   Abstract Introduction: Empathy is defined as understanding of patient’s experiences, concern and perceptive, combined with a capacity to communicate and intention to help. Patient takes doctors empathy as his good will for successful treatment of his patient while understanding his misery. This study was designed to in investigate the perception of patients regarding doctor empathy and to examine their satisfaction and personal interest or indications of patient compliance. Methodology: A cross-sectional survey was conducted between August 1, 2015 50 August 26, 2015. 100 patients selected purposively from OPD and ward. A self-administrated Likert styled questionnaire originally developed by Hojat et al at Jefferson school of Medicine with Urdu translation was administered. The data was analyzed using SPSS version 16. Results: Among the total of 100 patients, 98%patients accept that their Doctor has been taking care of them, 74% patients were satisfied that the Doctor explain the reason for  any test, 94% thought that their  Doctor explained  things clearly to them, 96% strongly agreed that their  doctor had knowledge and skills, 100%  were satisfied with the care their  doctor  provided, while 82%claimed that their doctor encourage  them to explain  the disease to him, 94% wanted their  doctor to be present in any medical emergency. Conclusions: This study reveals a high degree of patient’s satisfaction with empathy of Doctors of MMCH, although some improvement is still possible.   Key words: Patient, empathy, concern, satisfaction, MMC

    A Comparative Analysis of Compilation of “Bagh o Bahar” by Rashid Hasan Khan and Mirza Hamid Baig: رشیدحسن خان اور مرزا حامد بیگ کے "باغ وبہار"کی تدوین کا تقابلی کا جائزہ

    No full text
    The compilation process of Bagh o Bahar began with Mir Amman, who first edited the text himself. Written between 1801 and 1802, Mir Amman completed its compilation in 1804. This tradition of compilation includes notable contributors like Rashid Hasan Khan and Mirza Hamid Baig. Under the guidance of my esteemed mentor,Associate Professor Dr. Muhammad Imtiaz, I have thoroughly studied the works of both compilers and present a comparative analysis. To evaluate the compilations of Rashid Hasan Khan and Mirza Hamid Baig, we must examine their editorial efforts, principles, and outcomes. Both contributions are commendable. Mir Amman adopted specific editorial principles throughout his life and the final stages of compiling Bagh o Bahar. As a renowned and popular tale, Bagh o Bahar holds a pioneering position in Urdu prose. Through their editorial efforts, Rashid Hasan Khan and Mirza Hamid Baig have immortalized this work. A comparative analysis highlights the distinct contributions of both compilers

    Remittances and Poverty Linkages in Pakistan: Evidence and Some Suggestions for Further Analysis

    Full text link
    Global remittances experienced a dramatic increase over the years, particularly since 1990 wherein the developing world emerged to be the major beneficiary accounting for 60 percent of the total amount. Because of the sheer volume, and magnitude of the remittances, and pre-eminence of these flows compared to the FDIs, development assistance and in some cases the trade related transactions, the development practitioners tended to focus and investigate the importance of remittances which are generally regarded as a dependable source for growth, improved welfare and poverty alleviation in the developing world. Given the fact that remittances flows entail wide ranging ramifications both for sending as well as receiving countries, difficult to be generalised, hence empirical evidence has been mounted though lack of consensus is visible.

    F-OSFA: A Fog Level Generalizable Solution for Zero-Day DDOS Attacks Detection

    Full text link
    The globalization and digitization of society have caused a surge in network traffic, making reliable online services essential for user trust and system functionality. However, these services face ever-increasing threats, particularly complex and well-developed Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attacks. Zero-day DDoS attacks, a type of DDoS attack, are especially challenging because their new and unseen nature and lack of training data render traditional Intrusion Detection and Prevention Systems (IDPS) ineffective. To tackle this, we propose the Fog-based One Solution For All (F-OSFA) system - a model with three specialized components. The first component uses a hybrid machine learning and deep learning framework that combines convolutional neural networks (CNNs) and decision trees to detect traditional DDoS attacks. The second component employs a few-shot learning module with a contractive autoencoder for zero-day attack detection. The third component is a signature-based resource usage analyzer to counter attacks mimicking normal traffic. We demonstrate the efficacy of F-OSFA on publicly available datasets and prove the scheme is generalizable and effective. F-OSFA achieves an accuracy of 99.72% on CICDDoS2019 and 99.96% on CICIDS2017. In addition, it demonstrates its efficacy in the zero-day scenario as well by achieving a 96.77% on CICDDoS2019 and 95.98% on CICIDS2017. These evaluations testify to F-OSFA as a reliable and versatile solution against ever-evolving DDoS threats
