Abstract	The aim of this study was to investigate the effectiveness of continuous cold flow and compression device as against traditional icing regimen and without icing after anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction. All patients undergoing ACL reconstruction from June 2021 to August 2021 were enrolled in this study. Patients were randomly allocated to three groups: A control group (n=10) with no ice regimen post-operatively, a second control group (n=10) with ice bag, and a third group (n=10) with continuous cold flow and compression device (physiolab). All patients who had isolated ACL tear evident on magnetic resonance imaging were included. Pain intensity, limb girth, Oxford Knee Score, and 12-item survey form were measured pre- and post-operatively. Significant difference was noted between pain scores in all groups at two- and six-week follow-ups with p-value of 0.004 and 0.01. The test for "between subject effects" showed significant difference (p=0.007) in limb girth between the two groups. Cold and compression device can be used to reduce swelling immediately after ACL reconstruction.

Abstract	Introduction: Ureteropelvic junction obstruction (UPJO) is a commonly encountered abnormality and it can lead to serious consequences such as renal dysplasia eventually resulting in loss of kidney. Hence, early diagnosis and timely management remains the cornerstone of the treatment. The most anticipated technique amongst modern day urologist is the robot-assisted laparoscopic pyeloplasty (RALP). The study aims to determine early post-operative outcomes of robot-assisted laparoscopic transperitoneal pyeloplasty procedure in patients presenting with unilateral ureteropelvic junction obstruction to establish the local perspective. Methodology: This is a descriptive study involving patients with ureteropelvic junction obstruction in a tertiary care facility in Karachi; Sindh Institute of Urology and Transplant (SIUT). A total of 46 participants were recruited. Robot-assisted laparoscopic transperitoneal dismembered Hynes-Anderson pyeloplasty was performed by a single surgeon with over 3 years of experience in the presence of the researcher. Early postoperative outcome total operative time, length of hospital stay, console time and blood loss were noted by the researcher as per operational definition. Data were analyzed on SPSS Version 22. Results: Mean age in our study was 46.51 years with the standard deviation of ± 10.87. Whereas, mean length of hospital stay, total operative time, total blood loss, console time, pre-hemoglobin, posthemoglobin, height, weight and BMI in our study was 1.19 ± 0.40 days, 64.58 ± 17.59 min, 9.56 ± 6.13 ml, 30.17 ± 4.99 min, 12.66 ± 1.47 ml, 11.79 ± 1.93 ml, 165.62 ± 8.23 cm, 68.34 ± 8.23 kg and 24.85 ± 3.34 kg/m Conclusion: Recent advancements in technology have yielded the latest RALP technique which has been proven significantly better than existing approaches and similar results are reported by this study demonstrating improvement in peri-operative and post-operative outcomes ultimately ameliorating the quality of life of patients with UPJO.

Abstract	Patients with Alzheimer's disease (AD) display both peripheral tissue and brain insulin resistance, the later could be a potential risk factor for cognitive dysfunction. While certain degree of inflammation is required for inducing insulin resistance, underlying mechanism(s) remains unclear. Evidence from diverse research domains suggest that elevated intracellular fatty acids of de novo pathway can induce insulin resistance even without triggering inflammation; however, the effect of saturated fatty acids (SFAs) could be detrimental due the development of proinflammatory cues. In this context, evidence suggest that while lipid/fatty acid accumulation is a characteristic feature of brain pathology in AD, dysregulated de novo lipogenesis could be a potential source for lipid/fatty acid accumulation. Therefore, therapies aimed at regulating de novo lipogenesis could be effective in improving insulin sensitivity and cognitive function in patients with AD.

Abstract	Bimetallic metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) play a significant role in the electrocatalysis of water due to their large surface area and availability of increased numbers of pores. For the inaugural time, we examine the effectiveness of a hexamethylene tetra-amine (HMT)-induced 3D NiCo-MOF-based nanostructure as a potent bifunctional electrocatalyst with superior performance for overall water splitting in alkaline environments. The structural, morphological, and electrochemical properties of the as-synthesized bifunctional catalyst were examined thoroughly before analyzing its behavior towards electrochemical water splitting. The HMT-based NiCo-MOF demonstrated small overpotential values of 274 mV and 330 mV in reaching a maximum current density of 30 mA cm

Abstract	Background: Detection of early chronic changes in the kidney allograft is important for timely intervention and long-term survival. Conventional and novel ultrasound-based investigations are being increasingly used for this purpose with variable results. Aim: To compare the diagnostic performance of resistive index (RI) and shear wave elastography (SWE) in the diagnosis of chronic fibrosing changes of kidney allograft with histopathological results. Methods: This is a cross-sectional and comparative study. A total of 154 kidney transplant recipients were included in this study, which was conducted at the Departments of Transplantation and Radiology, Sindh Institute of Urology and Transplan tation, Karachi, Pakistan, from August 2022 to February 2023. All consecutive patients with increased serum creatinine levels and reduced glomerular filtration rate (GFR) after three months of transplantation were enrolled in this study. SWE and RI were performed and the findings of these were evaluated against the kidney allograft biopsy results to determine their diagnostic utility. Results: The mean age of all patients was 35.32 ± 11.08 years. Among these, 126 (81.8%) were males and 28 (18.2%) were females. The mean serum creatinine in all patients was 2.86 ± 1.68 mg/dL and the mean estimated GFR was 35.38 ± 17.27 mL/min/1.73 m Conclusion: The results from this study show that SWE is more sensitive and specific as compared to RI in the evaluation of chronic allograft damage. It can be of great help during the routine follow-up of kidney transplant recipients for screening and early detection of chronic changes and selecting patients for allograft biopsy.

Abstract	Cavernous malformations (CMs) are acquired vascular abnormalities of the central nervous system that are typically asymptomatic. Clinically symptomatic lesions may present with seizures, intracerebral hemorrhage, or focal neurological deficits. Very rarely, CMs have been described as the cause of subarachnoid hemorrhage. We report a case of a previously healthy 58-year-old man who presented with acute onset of severe headache associated with vomiting. Head computed tomography (CT) scan showed subarachnoid hemorrhage with intraventricular extension. Subsequent CT angiography (CTA) and digital subtraction angiography (DSA) studies showed no evidence of vascular abnormalities. The patient was initially managed conservatively but later required neurosurgical and radiological interventions due to a complicated hospital course and worsening clinical condition. During surgery, an incidental mass was found in the temporal lobe, and subsequent histopathological examination confirmed the diagnosis of cavernoma, which was likely the underlying cause of the subarachnoid hemorrhage. This report highlights the importance of considering CMs in the differential diagnoses of subarachnoid hemorrhage, especially in the absence of informative results from CTA and DSA studies. Timely detection and management of CMs may positively impact the clinical outcome, leading to reduced morbidity and mortality rates.

Abstract	Objective: To measure and compare the serum levels of resistin and lipid profile parameters in primigravida females with and without preeclampsia. Methods: The analytical cross-sectional study was conducted at the Department of Physiology and Cell Biology, University of Health Sciences, Lahore, Pakistan, from 2018 to 2020, and comprised primigravida females having gestational age 30-36 weeks. Those with preeclampsia constituted group 1, while normotensive females constituted group 2. All the participants were subjected to detailed history and general physical examination. Serum resistin levels were measured by enzymelinked immunosorbent assay, and lipid profile parameters were measured using the colorimetric method. Data was analysed using SPSS 20. Results: Of the 80 women, 40(50%) were in group 1 with mean age 23.07±2.10 years and mean gestation age 33.45±2.30 weeks. There were 40(50%) women in group 2 with mean age 23.02±2.11 years and mean gestational age 34.45±1.75 weeks. Mean serum resistin was significantly higher in group 1 compared to group 2 (p<0.02). Mean levels of lipid parameters were significantly different between the groups (p˂0.05). Conclusion: Preeclampsia was found to be associated with higher levels of resistin and lipid parameters compared to normal pregnancy.

Abstract	Abstract Rural electrification is a crucial component of meeting sustainable development goals. In Pakistan, load shedding and power outages are frequent. According to the current data, Pakistan is experiencing a shortfall of power between 6000 and 6500 MW. Microgrid technology has the potential to provide a solution to this problem in an efficient and low‐cost manner. This paper proposes the development of a hybrid microgrid system (HMGS) for rural communities. For that purpose, a technological analysis of the HMGS system for rural electrification is performed. Solar photovoltaic (PV) and wind resource‐based renewable energy systems are considered in this work for the electrification of rural areas of Pakistan. A hybrid PV/wind system is designed using MATLAB software. Simulation results show that a 230‐V sinusoidal output voltage has been produced by the proposed model. The advantage of this model is that it minimizes the impact of transients and provides a sinusoidal output waveform.
