Knowledge refinement mechanism in agency using adaptive automata and genetic algorithms
Recent advancements in data mining techniques showcase expansive and effective insights. Yet, these insights often remain incomplete. In situations demanding optimal results, such incomplete knowledge from various agents falls short. This paper delves into the role of mobile agents engaging in data mining within a multi-agent environment. Each agent is tailored with distinct goals, mining data in line with its identified problem set. Mobile agent…
Gender diversity is correlated with dimensional neurodivergent traits but not categorical neurodevelopmental diagnoses in children
BACKGROUND: Gender clinic and single-item questionnaire-based data report increased co-occurrence of gender diversity and neurodevelopmental conditions. The nuances of these associations are under-studied. We used a transdiagnostic approach, combining categorical and dimensional characterization of neurodiversity, to further the understanding of its associations with gender diversity in identity and expression in children. METHODS: Data from 291 …
Ethnomedicinal study of the flora of Sellay Pattay valley, District Malakand, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, Pakistan
Background: Plants are the basic source of medicines to treat and remediate different health concerns. The current study was aimed to evaluate the knowledge of folk medicinal Flora in Sellay Pattay valley, district Malakand, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, Pakistan. Methods: Ethnomedicinal study was carried out to document the indigenous knowledge about the use of medicinal plants. The data was gathered through interviews with randomly chosen informants in t…
Groundwater Quality, Health Risk Assessment, and Source Distribution of Heavy Metals Contamination around Chromite Mines
Groundwater contamination by heavy metals (HMs) released by weathering and mineral dissolution of granite, gneisses, ultramafic, and basaltic rock composition causes human health concerns worldwide. This paper evaluated the heavy metals (HMs) concentrations and physicochemical variables of groundwater around enriched chromite mines of Malakand, Pakistan, with particular emphasis on water quality, hydro-geochemistry, spatial distribution, geochemi…

Characterizing the ASD–ADHD phenotype
BACKGROUND: Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) and Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) have considerable overlap, supporting the need for a dimensional framework that examines neurodevelopmental domains which cross traditional diagnostic boundaries. In the following study, we use factor analysis to deconstruct the ASD-ADHD phenotype into its underlying phenotypic domains and test for measurement invariance across adaptive functioning, age…
Islamic financial services industry
Islamic Financial Services Industry (IFSI) crosses the age of 40 years, and sufficient empirical evidence exists to evaluate in light of the distinctive aspirations. This study fills the gap in the literature by evaluating the performance of IFSI in light of Islamic finance objectives—financial stability, equitable distribution of wealth and social responsibility; Shari’ah principles, and professional practices. Our investigation documents the ac…
Geochemical Modeling Source Provenance, Public Health Exposure, and Evaluating Potentially Harmful Elements in Groundwater
Groundwater contamination by potentially harmful elements (PHEs) originating from the weathering of granitic and gneissic rock dissolution poses a public health concern worldwide. This study investigated physicochemical variables and PHEs in the groundwater system and mine water of the Adenzai flood plain region, in Pakistan, emphasizing the fate distribution, source provenance, chemical speciation, and health hazard using the human health risk a…
Potential risk and source distribution of groundwater contamination by mercury in district Swabi, Pakistan
The Creation of Moon
Curiosity is among the pre-eminent traits of human beings that differentiates them from other species. The majority of human beings believe in a religion that provides them with standards to be followed in this world and knowledge about the hereafter. Holy scriptures as a source of guidance also provide profound knowledge about the universe, its beginning and end, its solar and lunar systems, orbits and functions and other aspects. Modern science…
Modeling and Predicting Dengue Incidence in Highly Vulnerable Countries using Panel Data Approach
The spread of dengue has become a major public health concern in recent times due to alarming climate change. Using country level panel data over the 2000-2017 period, this paper examines the effects of climate change and socio-economic variables on the incidence of dengue-borne diseases in some of the most highly vulnerable countries. Empirical analysis shows a positive association between climate change and socio-economic conditions in the adve…
Nexus between Air Pollution and Neonatal Deaths
The rapid economic growth in Asian countries has witnessed a persistent increase in air pollution complementing adverse health challenges for children in these countries. Quantification of health effects attributable to air pollution (PM 2.5 ) is important in policy implications to tackle air pollution and associated health problems. This study aims to explore the nexus between air pollution and neonates' deaths embedded in acute respiratory infe…

Views of Depressed Patients in Pakistan Concerning Their Illness, Its Causes, and Treatments
Although the core symptoms of depression appear uniform across cultures, their presentations might vary from one culture to another. This interview study was part of a project to establish whether cognitive behavior therapy could be effective for the treatment of depression in a developing country. We interviewed outpatients from a university teaching hospital in Pakistan who were diagnosed as having depression. We tried to elicit their knowledge…

Urdu translation of the ICD-10 chapter V (F), Research Diagnostic Criteria (RDC)
Although there is some literature on translation and cultural adaptation of measurement scales, none is available on the translation of diagnostic guidelines, such as the International Classification of Diseases Tenth Edition (ICD-10). Our group translated ICD-10, Research Diagnostics Criteria (RDC) into Urdu, which is the official language of Pakistan but is also spoken in some states in India. Significant diasporas of Urdu speakers also exist i…
University students’ views about compatibility of cognitive behaviour therapy (CBT) with their personal, social and religious values (a study from Pakistan)
Cognitive behaviour therapy (CBT) in its current form might not be applicable in non Western cultures. Differences between Western and non Western cultures have been reported widely. Psychotherapy was developed in the West and is underpinned by many beliefs which might be specific only to the Western culture. However, in order to modify CBT, we need to understand whether the concepts associated with the CBT might cause conflicts among people who …

Psychiatric Training in Pakistan
High rates of mental illness, particularly depression have been reported in Pakistan. The health system is both under developed and poorly resourced. It is therefore not surprising that psychiatric training is at its very early stages, at both undergraduate and the postgraduate level. In order to look after the mentally ill patients radical changes need to be implemented in training of doctors. Medical curriculum needs to place more focus on psyc…
