Towards Modeling Equal Humanity with Philanthropy and IT Constraints using Mathematical Utilities

In this research we present and analyzed the mathematical model for achieving equal humanity factor. The model revolves around human class, Information technology class and Philanthropy. The relative analysis of proposed mathematical model for humanity leads to expose several stable and unstable conditions of equal humanity. The presented model not only relies on Information technology constraint but also it is scalable enough to address equal humanity using any other constraint. During modeling and analysis we use basic set theories and logical operators

Measuring Water Poverty Index in Urban Areas of Punjab

The urban population of Punjab is growing rapidly. It is projected that there will be a 25 to 30 percent increase in urban population by 2020. This rapid population increase is causing major problems in the efficient provision of urban services in these cities. To evaluate the effect of this population increase, this paper tries to produce an integrated assessment of water stress and scarcity, linking physical estimates of water availability with socioeconomic variables that reflect poverty, i.e., a Water Poverty Index. It is understood that poor households face the problem of the accessibility of potable water, and this results in a significant loss of time and effort, especially for women. On the basis of multiple data sources, this paper evaluates water poverty in three panels of large, intermediate, and small cities of Punjab. The results show the same water poverty level within the panels but a higher poverty level in large cities than small and intermediate cities

Investigation of Flow Dynamics Around a Combination of Different Head Shapes of Spur Dikes

Spur dikes are widely used as river training structures throughout the globe to improve navigation, strengthen flood protection, and save erodible banks. This study investigates the flow behaviour of multiple spurs using similar and different head shapes instead of adding an extra structure. The novelty of the study lies in finding out the best combination of head shapes among circular (C), rectangular (R), and triangular (T) that can reduce the responsible factors of scouring and erosion. The responsible factors for scour and erosion include high magnitude velocity, pressure, turbulence kinetic energy (TKE), Reynold stresses, and wall shear stresses. Nine combinations (3 same, i.e., CCC, RRR, and TTT and six different, i.e., CRC, CTC, RCR, RTR, TCT, TRT) of spurs were investigated using Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) code FLUENT. Firstly, in the analysis of similar head shapes, more reduction in the values of scour and erosion responsible factors were observed in CCC combination (20% in velocity, 45% in pressure, 41% in TKE, and 43% in normal Reynold stresses). Finally, the reduction was further improved in analysing different head shapes. The CTC combination showed the most effective results in reducing the prescribed factors (43% in velocity, 57% in pressure, 51% in TKE, and 54% in normal Reynold stresses) compared to both combinations of head shapes. Therefore, to protect riverbank and spur head failure due to severe turbulent flow, the combination of spurs (CTC) could be preferred

Association Of Maternal Age And Hemoglobin Level With Apgar Score Of Newborns In A Tertiary Care Hospital Of Suburbs Of Islamabad

Objectives: To determine the association of Apgar score with maternal age and hemoglobin. Methods A cross-sectional study was conducted on mothers (n=306) delivering live, full-term, singleton babies by spontaneous vertex delivery. Women who suffered stillbirths had babies of unknown gestational age or showed co-morbidities were excluded. SPSS version 26 was used for data analysis. Mean + standard deviation, and percentages were calculated. Cross-tabulation and logistic regression were done to see the association between dependent and independent variables. A p-value of <0.05 was statistically significant. Results The ages of women ranged from 20 to 40 years (mean= 25+1.9).  The number of patients aged 24 years with Hb <7g/dl was 6 (37.5%). Out of all, 90 (29.4%) patients had Hb >11g/dl, and their ages were 30 years which was significant (p = 0.000). Apgar score for the neonates showed that 258 (84.3%) had an Apgar score >7 while 48 (15.7%) had a score < 7. Babies of mothers whose age was 26 years had Apgar score < 7(25%) (p = 0.001). Neonatal birth weight, of <2kg was observed in infants born to young mothers of 26 years of age (20%) (p = 0.001), and a weight >3.5kg was recorded in 20 infants (6.5%). The younger mothers had lower Hb, and their babies had low Apgar scores <7 at the time of birth (p = 0.001). Conclusion Women of younger age and lower hemoglobin levels give birth to infants with low Apgar scores and birth weight. Low birth weight in neonates is significantly associated with a low five-minute Apgar score

Administration of 5-HT-1B agonist ameliorates pseudodementia induced by depression in rats

Major depressive disorder (MDD) is the leading cause of memory impairment in general population. The serotonin hypothesis provides a target model for the treatment of depression and depression-associated memory loss. 5-HT-1B receptor is suggested as a potential candidate in the pathophysiology of depressive illness. Dysfunction of 5-HT-1B receptors has been observed previously in depressive patients. Zolmitriptan, 5-HT-1B agonist is clinically recommended for the treatment of migraine. However, in present study this drug was tested as a potential treatment for depression and associated memory loss by altering the serotonergic function at receptor level. Rats (n=24) were equally divided into unstressed and stressed groups. Depression was induced by 19 days of restraint stress for 4 h which was followed by forced swim test and pattern separation test to assess depressive symptoms and memory impairment, respectively. The initial sign of depression-associated memory loss involves impaired pattern separation which is regarded as pseudodementia. In this study stressed ratsshowed depression- and pseudodementia-like symptoms. After the induction of depression, rats were treated with zolmitriptan at a dose of 0.3 mg/kg which resulted in a significant attenuation of depression and depression-associated memory impairment. Results are discussed with reference to the modulation of function of 5-HT-1B receptor following the administration of exogenous agonist
