Methods A web-based cross-sectional study was conducted in the general population of Sindh, Pakistan in January 2021. 31 items based on vaccines availability, safety, and myths, the questionnaire was designed and randomly distributed through a google form link. Results were analyzed using descriptive and Chi-square tests. Results A total of 774 responses were recorded from 23 districts of Sindh, Pakistan. The majority of participants (n=00, 00.0%) were not aware of the presence of the COVID-19 vaccine in Pakistan. Results found the significant relationship of conspiracies and myths with an education level of participants, to make Muslims infertile, illiterate showed (Yes n=45, No=27) while postgraduate (Yes n=11, No=88) (χ2 ...

This was a prospective observational study. The study was carried out in the department of obstetrics & Gynecology in BSMMU from Jan 2006 to Dec 2006. Thirty-five consecutive cases with heart diseases were included in the study. Out of 35 Cases, 26(74.3%) were suffering from rheumatic heart diseases and only 9 (25.7%) patients were suffering from congenital heart disease. Based on New York heart Association (NYHA) functional classification, 28(80%) belonged to NYHA class I, 5 (71.212%) belonged to NYHA class II and 2(28.57%) belonged to class III heart disease on presentation. The number of caeserian section was 33(94.28%) and normal vaginal delivery (5.71%). In this study only 1 woman of NYHA III disease expired.

The aim of the study was to assess levels of trace elements regarding accumulation of the metals, as well as investigate whether of the soil factors (chemical and physical) which influence trace element concentrations in soil. The physico-chemical parameters (viz. pH, EC, MC, OC, and textural class) and trace elements concentrations i.e Cd, Co, Cr, Cu, Fe, Mn, Mo, Ni, Pb and Zn have been determined in the soils from caly loam region in west AL-Fashir city, Western Sudan. The top soil of this region is predominantly loamy sand. The soil pH varies within the acidic or slightly neutral and range between 6.62-7.72. The EC values were found to vary between 0.155-0.360. OC is very low (mean 0.081±0.007). MC range between 0.230-0.430%. Average trace element concentrations decreased according to: Fe-Co-Ni-Cr-Zn. The subsoil of this region is predominantly loamy sand. The soil pH varies within the range 6.02-7.10. The EC values were found between 0.162-0.275. OC is very low (mean 0.093+0.020). MC range between 0.230-0.430%.
