Abstract

Eid-ul-Fitr is an auspicious festival that is expected to celebrate by millions of Muslims across the world including Pakistan by the end of April. The Delta variant of COVID-19 is way more harmful than any other variants. The spread of virus still remains very high in large festival gatherings like Eid ul Fitr instead of strictly following SOPs. The mass migration of people across the country during festival is of main concern that leads to increase spread of virus. It is imperative that government officials along with community leaders, religious scholars and health authorities should take part in mitigating risks of virus transmission with serious measures. As general public is not much aware of the COVID-19 complications, it becomes significant to educate illiterate people through various approaches like to give them awareness about virus, its symptoms, preventive measures and significance of vaccination. Communication in their local language that is easily comprehendible and in persuasive way greatly impacts the public and empowers them to adapt healthy behavior that helps to mitigate the risk of virus transmission.

Abstract

Chikungunya virus (CHIKV), an alphavirus transmitted by mosquitoes, has re-emerged recently, causing significant global outbreaks. Infection leads to chikungunya fever (CHIKF), an acute febrile illness primarily characterized by severe joint pain and myalgia, which can persist for weeks to months. The pain is much more pronounced and localized to the joints and tendons in chikungunya fever. Although CHIKF is usually self-limiting, severe cases with complications like persistent systematic clinical manifestations and fatalities have been documented. The virus’s resurgence is likely driven by factors such as viral evolution, globalization, and climate change, exacerbated by the absence of licensed vaccines or antiviral therapies. In light of its expanding range and unpredictable outbreaks, CHIKV has become a major global health threat. No specific and effective antiviral therapy is available, and vaccines are still in trial. The only effective preventive measures consist of individual protection against mosquito bites and vector control. The main objective of this study is to investigate the clinical manifestations, pathogenesis and epidemiology of CHIKV disease.

Abstract

Endocrine disrupting chemicals (EDCs) are gradually documented as public health hazards in agricultural and industrial centers of Pakistan. Faisalabad, is known as a major pivot point for intensive farming and textile manufacturing, presents multiple sources of exposure including industrial effluents, pesticide residues, and consumer products. However, the exposure of EDCs at population level leftovers under-addressed. The data documented in this study was collected from recent environmental and biomonitoring studies conducted in Punjab, Pakistan. For this purpose, we reviewed literature on EDCs concentrations in food items, groundwater, and biological samples, with special focus on bisphenol A (BPA), organochlorine pesticides, and phthalate metabolites. In conclusion, Faisalabad’s polluted groundwater supply, convergence of dyeing industry effluents, and pesticide-intensive agriculture create a significant risk of low dose, chronic exposure to various EDCs which are associated with metabolic disorders, warranting urgent public health interventions.

Abstract

The prevalence of diabetes mellitus has been increased and our diagnostic strategies are limited to only body mass index (BMI), blood sugar level and life style changes. This is actually a silent driver which we ignored in diagnosis of diabetes mellitus. The elevated level of blood sugar tells us that our pancreas is struggling while high level of cadmium in urine and blood exhibits why pancreas is struggling. Until, we test blood and urinary cadmium levels we cannot reach the actual cause of high blood sugar level. Thus, we ignore a cause which should actually be removed. Therefore, the concentration of cadmium should not be ignored during the diagnosis of diabetes mellitus especially in big cities of Pakistan where exposure is on its peak level.
