As a result, hacking is also known as infiltration. Intrusions, on the other hand, were not always recognized as theft and were employed for productive purposes. A person or corporation that does ethical hacking and receives incentives from a network or system owner for testing can enter an apparatus (system or network) to locate, repair, and expose network flaws. Most ethical hackers, also known as black hat hackers, test systems using different approaches, methodologies, and tools. Because today's life is lived in a digital world, we need to protect our privacy from cyber-attacks. The proposed paper discussed ethical hacking and its ramifications, in which black hackers "hack" networks. The proposed research emphasizes ethical hacking tactics.

Present study is aimed at extending this knowledge by assessing whether specific religious coping regulates specific cognitive emotional responses to improve well-being during Covid pandemic, an extreme international event with significant impacts on individuals and communities. A sample of young adults responded to self-report measures of negative and positive religious coping, positive reappraisal, self-blaming, and mental well-being. Results revealed that positive religious coping was a positive predictor of mental well-being and positive reappraisal mediated this positive link. Also, gender and physical health status significantly interacted with positive reappraisal to predict mental well-being in these mediational associations. More specifically, indirect effects of positive reappraisal were positive and significant for men and for participants with better physical health compared with wo...

About 50 of carotenoids are the "Provitamin A compounds" which are precursors of retinol. Retinol is the active form of vitamin A. It plays an important role in vision. Beta carotene is an important anti-oxidant which protects the damaging of body cells by high free radical content because of its radical scavenging activity. The purpose of this study was to quantify the beta carotene and vitamin A present in yellow and green pumpkins. High performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) was used to analyze beta carotene and vitamin Yellow pumpkin contained the highest values of both the �-carotene and vitamin A than green pumpkin. The results illustrated that green pumpkin (Curcurbita pepo) possess 20.3µg/g beta carotene; 52.6µg/g vitamin A and yellow pumpkin (Curcurbita maxima) contains 35.7µg/g beta carotene and 60.2 µg/g vitamin A in their pulp. It was concluded that there is a need to promote ...

Depression is likely to cause a 5.7% increase in the global burden of disease by 2020 and is to become the leading cause of disability worldwide by the year 2030. Objective of the study: The main objective of the study is to analyse the relationship between parathyroid hormone and high blood pressure among local population of Pakistan. Methodology of the study: This cross sectional study was conducted at Allama Iqbal Medical College, Lahore during June 2019 to June 2020 with the permission of ethical committee of hospital. The data was collected from 200 hypertensive patients who visited the OPD of the hospital regularly. All those patients who have the history of smoking were excluded from this study. 5 mL of fasting blood sample was taken and analysed for serum calcium, phosphorous, albumin, PTH, and haemoglobin. Serum calcium, phosphorous, and albumin were measured. BP was obtained us...

Prior to birth, half of the follicle puddle is misplaced. Pending the females arrives at the 40 years of age, atresia sluggish, at that time the number of follicles stayed arrives at a dangerous doorstep. Again, atresia becomes fast at this stage again and female developed through the reproductive aging until when no eggs in the ovary of female present more. This occurs at the average age of 51 years. We notice the less formation of B inhibin and almost no secretion of follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) when only smaller numbers of ovaries are present in the female body. A large number of hormonal discharges occur on the basis of reaction towards follicles in every periodic cycle. Sometimes females face unsuitable production of follicles and sometimes normal production. These two conditions alternate simultaneously. A study named Study of Women across the Nation (SWAN) was organized to recognize the changes in the hormonal discharge of the females. This recognition was made by examining the urine of the female every day. It was observed that females of the larger ages and larger weight bearing showed less discharge of hormones. Less production of estradiol and more release of FSH was seen in the older females at the time stoppage of reproductive cycle. At the time of start of menopausal evolution less production of luteinizing hormone was also observed. Central nervous system of the female fails to react normally towards the secretion of various hormone so imbalance in the production of hormones results. Throughout the evolution we noticed the changes in every reproductive cycle, not only the ovary. Changes in the hormonal secretion of reproductive cycle indicate the perimenopause.

The patient initially presented with a hemorrhagic blister involving the second through fourth toes with serosanguinous discharge and was on hydralazine for blood pressure control. Differentials included Staphylococcus-associated/lupus nephritis/anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic autoantibody (ANCA) vasculitis. Still, detailed history and meticulous clinical approach with supporting labs and imaging helped us to narrow it to Staphylococcus-associated glomerulonephritis, which is rarely encountered in clinical practice and is associated with high mortality. The management of the patient resulted in a positive outcome and she was discharged home.

The main objective of this review analysis is to find the Effectiveness and safety of rituximab in patients with active rheumatoid arthritis. This study was conducted using a systematic search on Google scholar, PubMed and Web of science published until 20th April 2021. The cited references of retrieved articles and previous reviews were also manually checked to identify any additional eligible studies. There were total 188 studies that identified initially from PubMed, Google scholar and Web of Science databases.

The importance of PTM is even more critical for Early childhood Education (ECE). ECE is not a novice concept in Pakistan; however, parents have only realized now that learning during early childhood goes beyond the walls of the classrooms and can only realize its full potential if parents are actively participating in their children's education. Therefore, PTM is the time when parents and teachers can collaborate to work for the education of the children. The current study explores the prospective teachers' perceptions of PTMs and their influence on ECE students' performance. The data were gathered from seven participants through an open-ended, semi-structured interview guide. The analysis concluded that prospective teachers had a good understanding of PTMs processes and generally had a positive attitude toward them. Prospective teachers also believed that PTMs positively influence students&#...

The clinical presentation varies from person to person, but usually includes neck pain or discomfort and a painful diffuse goiter. There is at times a transient episode of hyperthyroidism followed by euthyroidism and sometimes hypothyroidism. We describe the case of a previously healthy 29-year-old female presenting with symptoms consistent with subacute thyroiditis. The patient had recently recovered from a mild episode of COVID-19 infection. Labs and imaging were consistent with the clinical diagnosis of subacute thyroiditis. The patient was provided symptomatic treatment with prednisone and atenolol and had an uneventful recovery.
