The study reveals that hostel life affects the standard, ways of living of students, and because of this, they become more punctual, independent, social, realistic, sharp and disciplined. Objective: To find out health-related lifestyles among University students. Methodology: The study was conducted at Bahauddin Zakariya University Multan, Pakistan. To fulfil the purpose of this research work, the researcher tried to approach those students who were living in hostels at BahauddinZakariya University, Multan. A sample of 150 respondents (Umar Hall (25), Abu Bakr Hall (25), Usman Hall (25), Ayesha Hall (25), Amna Hall (25), Hajra Hall (25) were collected by using simple random sampling. Keeping in view the quantitative method, a questionnaire was derived and delivered to 150 male and female hostel dwellers of Bahauddin Zakariya University to find out their health status depending upon their lifestyles. The data were analyzed by using Statistical Package for Social Science (SPSS). After it, T-test and ANOVA test were applied. Results: The study reported that unhealthy nutritional behaviour, terrible sleep conduct, physical inactivity, obesity, smoking and use of drugs are a great deal worse. Living alone affected the health-related lifestyle of students living in hostels. Hostels put a negative as well as positive impact on the life of students to make them active, alert, mercurial and lazy. Conclusion: Living in hostels creates individual's issues such as the use of drugs and narcotics etc. Eating habits are based upon the availability of some specific food items thus affecting their health. The study suggests that proper training and awareness of good and bad, beneficial and non-beneficial can help them to prevent themselves from malnutrition and non-communicable diseases.
To study length-weight relationship, condition factor, meristic and morphometric characteristics ... more To study length-weight relationship, condition factor, meristic and morphometric characteristics of Clupisoma (C) naziri, twelve specimens were collected in the month of May, 2007 from the river Indus near Attock Khurd, Pakistan. The mean total length and wet body weight were measured as 30.03±0.41cm and 205.5±20.12g, respectively. Log transform regression was used to study the length weight relationship. Growth coefficient (b) of C. naziri was 4.19 indicated positive allometric growth pattern. Rostral barbels were surpassing the posterior edge of eyes, while mandibular barbles were not reaching the posterior edge of head.

Water is becoming polluted due to anthropogenic impact i.e. industrial waste, urbanization, agriculture intensification and global warming. The main objectives of the study were to know the diversity and distribution of fish species of river Chenab. The study was focused at three heads of the river namely Head Marala (district Sialkot), Head Khanki (district Gujrat) and Head Qadirabad (district Gujranwala). Status of fish diversity was recorded with the help of local fisher man from the study area; the data was collected in all seasons. Both, direct and indirect methods were applied to find out fish diversity of the area. The diversity indices were analyzed through statistical software PAST version 2.17 C. During the sampling 34 species was recorded from the river Chenab. The diversity indices indicate a higher diversity at the Head Qadirabad than at Head Khanki and Head Marala. The possible reason may be the presence of a large number of natural and manmade ponds. During flood, fish from these ponds move to the river; further eggs and fingerlings move to rivers through birds and fisherman.

Pregnancy is poorly tolerated in patients with Eisenmenger syndrome (ES) with maternal mortality ... more Pregnancy is poorly tolerated in patients with Eisenmenger syndrome (ES) with maternal mortality of 30-50%. Physiological changes of pregnancy decreases systemic vascular resistance that further aggravates the bi-directional or right to left shunt associated with ES. When it occurs with eclampsia, the morbidity and mortality are even higher. We report a case of 30 weeks pregnant woman with ES, who underwent emergency caesarian section because of pre-eclampsia. The intra-operative course was uneventful but she died on the second post-operative day. Post-operatively she was managed by the cardiologist in the coronary care unit. The probable cause being that she was over transfused, as the fluid status was not assessed by any invasive monitoring (like CVP). It was concluded that patients should be monitored closely in the post-operative period in the intensive care unit with complete invasive monitoring for up to a week to prevent factors resulting in worsening of the shunt (such as fl...

Swift heavy ion (SHI) {energy > 1 MeV} irradiation of the polymers is a novel technique to enhance/alter their properties like conductivity, density, chain length and solubility. Poly(3-methylthiophene) conducting polymer thin films doped with LiClO 4 and LiCF 3 SO 3 are synthesized electrochemically on ITO coated glass substrates and irradiated with 120 MeV Si 9+ ions at different fluences of 5 • 10 10 , 5 • 10 11 and 3 • 10 12 ions/cm 2. The dc conductivity measurements of irradiated films show $60% increase in conductivity, which could be attributed to increase of carrier concentration in the polymer film and cross-linking of polymer chains. X-ray diffractogram study shows that the degree of crystallinity of poly(3-methylthiophene) is increased and shows an increasing trend with the increase in fluence of SHI irradiation. SEM micrographs show grain growth and densification of the polymer films upon SHI irradiation.
