ABSTRACT
The process of eliminating viral infection and massive control from spreading furthermore by any variants may lead to a pandemic in the near future. On the other aspect, the impact of eradicating by the initial stage to prevent, treat carcinoma to decline the affected and death rate to maximum amount by Molecular Docking. The quickest and easiest method to search out the potential drugs is by analyzing the ligand-protein interactions compared to the traditional ways. Drugs of antivirals and anti-cancer drugs are given for treating viral infections and cancers. Massive kinds of viruses affect humans with several diseases, from self-curable diseases to acute mortal diseases. In cancer, the diseases are known by the cells within humans;multiplication occurs and forming the tumors of malignant cells with the flexibility to be a pathological process. Herbal medicines are known to play enormous role by giving initial priority. Various plant species are being employed to cure or prevent viral infections and cancers. Molecular docking provides a fast understanding of the ligand's exploration of conformations, poses among drug targets' binding sites, and predicts the binding affinity of protein-ligand. Its main approach is to spot top-ranked conformations on compounds and means of docking to the active site of target of interest. Intake of naturally suggested fruits and vegetables leads to the goal of decreasing the death rate, and the count of females who are liable to breast cancers.Copyright All © 2023 are reserved by International Journal of Pharmaceutical Sciences and Research.
ABSTRACT
The educational strategies have changed in Pakistan due to COVID-19. This epidemic covers almost 204 countries and territories all over the world and on 11th March 2020, WHO declared this outbreak as a pandemic. Pakistan has become one of the two hundred and four countries over the world has stopped their educational activities and closed their in-stitutions for unspecified duration. As we know that spring semester was started in the month of January in Pakistani universities, and had covered almost half path of its journey. In this situation, HEC (Higher Education Commission) announced that universities must convert educational activ-ities in hybrid teaching mode and start online teaching. We made a case study on the Learning Management System (LMS), Campus management System, and WhatsApp etc. Apply these tools on private sector engineer-ing university where two hundred and fifty students enrolled in different mathematics courses. The outcome of this study shows that quick switch-ing to the online education system was little bit difficult but successful. Though in the beginning, there were some problems for teachers and stu-dents both but overall the experience was good. Government of Pakistan will reopen the education institute in the month of September and in these days we are quite close to resume educational activities as per the regular practice. The aim of this study is to support to continue the hybrid teach-ing mode at tertiary level in the regular teaching practice specifically of Mathematics courses. In hybrid teaching mode, the ratio of face to face teaching is seventy percent and online tools and teaching strategies used thirty percent. This method of teaching and learning keep students con-nected with their teachers. Lastly, we suggest that there is still a room for betterment in LMS. The result of this study shows that students' perfor-mance in mathematics class and exam has been improved by using differ-ent application, software and gadgets. E-learning teaching and learning method will be beneficial strategy.
ABSTRACT
Objective: The current study intends to look at how COVID-19 pandemic affected parenting practices during COVID-19 in Pakistan and if the children were exposed to more abuse and neglect at home. Study Design: A quantitative design survey. Place and Duration of the Study: Data was collected from parents visiting outpatient departments (OPDs) in four hospitals of Lahore, Peshawar, and Karachi in three months from July to September 2020. Material and Methods: A quantitative design survey was used, and data (N=923) were collected using a self-administered COVID-19 Parenting Response Scale (α = 0.74). Results: The primary responsibility of taking care of children rested with mothers in most of the cases. Ratio of severe disciplinary practices like shouting, yelling, cursing, and slapping children was increased significantly during the lock down as the anger and frustration in the parents also mounted. This effect was more pronounced in families from lower socioeconomic groups as well as for those who suffered income loss during COVID-19. Conclusion: Financial and emotional stress caused by COVID-19 exacerbated the already difficult parenting practices. Ultimately children suffered more violence at the hands of parents. In Pakistani society there is little awareness on building one‟s capacity on good parenting and little availability of such trainings. There is a need to understand implications for good parenting and create awareness of positive parenting methods.
ABSTRACT
Objectives: This study intended to look at how people were receiving information on COVID-19, how children spent time during the COVID-19 pandemic and if the screen time for children had increased during the pandemic. Study Design: The study was descriptive in nature and a quantitative Place and Duration of the Study: Data was collected from parents visiting OPDs in four hospitals of Lahore, Peshawar and Karachi in three months from July to September 2020. Material and Methods: Quantitative survey design was used, data (N=923) were collected using self-administered scale and checklist. Results: Most of the information about COVID-19 was received either through TV (50.8%) or through online social media (33.6%). Most children were spending their time either playing (32.2%) or watching cartoons/movies (19.6%). Screen time of children in the lockdown period was increased. 87.4% children used screens for at least 2 hours per day during the lock down whereas 69.1% used screen for more than 2 hours before COVID-19. Most often used devices were mobile/tablet/PC in 64.2% whereas TV was viewed 34.9% of the time. Conclusion: Most COVID-19 related information was gathered online, and a large proportion of children spent their time in front of screens. There is a need to understand the serious implications of increased screen time for children and to develop effective strategies to reduce screen time of the children.
