Article Synopsis
- The study focused on the challenge of determining gender from pelvic bones, particularly through the analysis of the greater sciatic notch, which is resilient to trauma.
- Researchers examined 70 dry unidentified pelvic bones, measuring various features of the greater sciatic notch to classify the bones as male or female.
- Results indicated significant differences in measurements between genders, confirming the usefulness of these parameters for accurate gender determination in forensic contexts.

Article Synopsis
- The study investigates the hepatoprotective effects of Withania coagulans, comparing a crude methanolic extract and n-hexane fraction against liver toxicity induced by carbon tetrachloride (CCl4) in mice.
- Results showed significant liver damage in the control group treated with CCl4, while both low and high doses of Withania coagulans significantly improved liver enzyme levels compared to the CCl4 group.
- The findings suggest that Withania coagulans offers protective effects for the liver against CCl4 toxicity, highlighting its potential as a medicinal herb.
Background: The incidence of gall bladder diseases is increasing day by day in developing as well as developed countries. Most common gall bladder diseases include gallstones (cholelithiasis) and cancer of gall bladder.
Objective: To determine and compare the surgical incidence of gallstones on the basis of gender and age in patients undergoing elective cholecystectomy in Benazir Bhutto Shaheed Hospital (DHQ) Abbottabad.
Background: Chemical induced nephrotoxicity is one of the main causes of acute kidney injury. The objective of this study was to determine the antioxidant effect of vitamin E against carbon tetrachloride induced tubulointerstitial and glomerular damage in the kidney of albino mice.
Methods: The study had been conducted on albino mice.
Background: Lumbosacral transitional vertebra is a common anatomical variant of the spine that possibly is related to low back pain. The objective is to determine the frequency of Lumbosacral Transitional Vertebrae on lumbosacral radiographs in patients with low back pain visiting Neurosurgery OPD of Khyber Teaching Hospital Peshawar Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (KP).
Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted on radiographs of lumbosacral spine in patients visiting for low back pain to the Neurosurgery OPD of Khyber Teaching Hospital Peshawar.

October 2020
Background: Hip fracture causes high morbidity in elderly. Decreased bone mineral density is associated with hip fracture risks. The study is conducted to identify relationship of histomorphological changes in proximal femur in the cases of hip fractures in elderly with histomorphological changes in proximal femur.

The change in bone mass ultimately results into miss interpretation of bone age once assed from x-ray radiograph. The aims compare skeletal age of thalassaemic children of 9-15 years with chronological age by x-ray wrist bones.
