Comprehensive assessment of fish diversity and water health in river Indus, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, Pakistan.

Fish diversity and water quality are vital indicators of the health of freshwater ecosystems, however these systems are increasingly threatened by environmental changes and anthropogenic activities. This investigation aimed to assess the fish diversity and evaluate the physicochemical parameters of water at Ghazi Swabi near Tarbela Dam, River Indus, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, Pakistan, between March and June 2020. Monthly water samples were collected and analyzed for various physicochemical parameters such as temperature, dissolved oxygen (DO), total dissolved solids (TDS), pH, turbidity, salinity, and concentrations of heavy metals including lead (Pb), copper (Cu), cadmium (Cd), and mercury (Hg).

Energy dataset of Frontier supercomputer for waste heat recovery.

The Hewlett Packard Enterprise-Cray EX Frontier is the world's first and fastest exascale supercomputer, hosted at the Oak Ridge Leadership Computing Facility in Tennessee, United States. Frontier is a significant electricity consumer, drawing 8-30 MW; this massive energy demand produces significant waste heat, requiring extensive cooling measures. Although harnessing this waste heat for campus heating is a sustainability goal at Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL), the 30 °C-38 °C waste heat temperature poses compatibility issues with standard HVAC systems.

Thriving among Pakistani physicians: A qualitative study.

Objective: Burnout among physicians negatively impacts the quality of patient care and provider's mental health. While many studies have evaluated burnout, factors associated with physician thriving are not well-defined. This study involved a qualitative exploration of thriving and career satisfaction among physicians in Pakistan.

Efficacy of Remdesivir on Clinical Outcomes in COVID-19 Patients: A Study in a Tertiary Care Hospital in Pakistan.

Background: As of October 3, 2023, the global COVID-19 case tally exceeded 696 million, with almost 7 million fatalities. Remdesivir, approved for treatment of COVID-19 by regulatory bodies, has seen varying recommendations by the World Health Organization over time. Despite certain studies questioning its efficacy, others highlight potential benefits.

From genes to therapy: A comprehensive exploration of congenital heart disease through the lens of genetics and emerging technologies.

Congenital heart disease (CHD) affects approximately 1 % of live births worldwide, making it the most common congenital anomaly in newborns. Recent advancements in genetics and genomics have significantly deepened our understanding of the genetics of CHDs. While the majority of CHD etiology remains unclear, evidence consistently indicates that genetics play a significant role in its development.
