This study is aimed at examining the preferred learning styles of medical and dental undergraduate students of Pakistan. It is also aimed at investigating the influence of gender, preclinical or clinical academic year, and academic record on the preferred learning style. A descriptive cross-sectional study was conducted in Pakistan. The learning styles of undergraduate students were identified using visual, aural, read/write, and kinesthetic (VARK) questionnaire. Students were also asked about their satisfaction towards teaching style of their teachers in institute. Descriptive statistics were done to characterize the learning styles of the students. The Fisher test and chi-square test were used to compare the learning preferences between genders and public/private sector students and among preclinical/clinical years. A p value of less than 0.05 was consi...

Although early studies reported improved outcomes following use of perioperative antibiotics for tonsillectomy, more recent studies have not been able to demonstrate a significant benefit on post tonsillectomy morbidity. Objective: To determine the need for postoperative antibiotics in children undergoing tonsillectomy under aseptic conditions at two tertiary care hospitals of Peshawar. Materials & Methods: Children aged 5-14 years admitted to the departments of Otorhinolaryngology-A unit of Hayatabad Medical Complex and Rehman Medical Institute, Peshawar from March 01, 2018 to September 30, 2018 for recurrent sore throat and recurrent quinsy were included in this quasi-experimental study based on prospective data collection and convenience sampling. Children with blood dyscrasias, upper and lower respiratory tract infections, and cardiopulmonary diseases were excluded. Routine preoperat...

Trigonella foenum gracium and Trigonella corniculata, collected from Bahawalpur, Pakistan were subjected to the biochemical, phytochemical and antioxidant analysis. The content of total sugars, non reducing sugars and reducing sugars in selected parts of these varities were found to be 5.007±0.101 to 8.133±0.223, 4.255±0.150 to 7.099±0.316 and 0.751±0.064 to 1.410±0.071 g/100g of dry weight respectively. Water soluble, salt soluble and total salt soluble protein content range from 1.172±0.001 to 6.015±0.132, 1.517±0.038 to 1.174±0.006 and 0.013±0.001 to 0.018±0.001 g/100 g of dry weight respectively and the total free amino acids ranged from 1.198±0.014 to 4.554±0.006 g/100 g of dry weight. The range of tannins and saponin contents in analyzed parts of these varities was found to be 0.057±0.009 to 0.117±0.025 and 0.083±0.012 to 0.0151±0.045 g /100g of dry weight respectively.

However, many times, different cells need to perform different tasks at the same time and communication is necessary. Cells can signal each other using certain molecules, and they can decipher these messages through receptors on the plasma membrane and some second messenger molecules present in cells. Cell communication is crucial to the survival of an organism. In fact, if a cell receives no signals, it signals apoptosis. The three steps to cell signaling are reception, transduction, and response. In reception, a cell signaling molecule binds to a receptor protein on the cell membrane or inside the cell if the signaling molecule is hydrophobic and can pass through the membrane. In transduction, the binding of the molecule to the receptor induces a conformational change, and the signal is converted into a form...

Teacher education institutions play a vital role in bringing cultural and religious harmony by producing prospective teachers who are able to cultivate tolerance, acceptance, patriotism, ethnic, religious respect and counter extremism, sectarian, and discrimination prospective. This qualitative exploratory study explores whether the prospective teachers in Balochistan are trained enough to teach in religious schools. The data were collected through in-depth interviews and focused group discussions. All teacher educators and prospective teachers from the universities that remained part of Pre-STEP or Teacher Education Project (TEP) assisted by USAID constituted the population of the study. Sample was selected through purposive sampling from two universities situated in Quetta. 10 teacher educators (5+5) and 10 prospective teachers (5+5)...

In addition, in previous literature, a true MM canal has not been clearly distinguished from an isthmus between the mesiobuccal and mesiolingual canals. Therefore, the objectives of this study were 2-fold:
