Abstract	PV power prediction is vital for efficient and effective solar energy utilization within the energy ecosystem. It enables grid stability, cost savings, and the seamless integration of solar power into the broader energy infrastructure. In this work, previously obtained data on the estimation of the power produced by a PV, which is cooled by L-shaped aluminum fins attached to the backside of the PV at different spacings, is used to predict the power produced by the PV. This is achieved by employing both neural network models and multiple linear regression (MLR) techniques to assess the correlation between power generated by PV with L-shaped aluminum fins and its input variables. Two distinct approaches were employed for this purpose. The first approach involved the conventional MLR model, while the second utilized a neural network, specifically the Multilayer Perceptron (MLP) model. The estimated outcomes were subsequently compared against the previously measured data. The MLR technique showed a great ability to identify the relationship between input and output variables, it was noted. The statistical error study provided evidence of data mining's acceptable accuracy when using the MLP model. Conversely, the results indicated that the Multilayer Perceptron Network (MLP) model exhibited the least ability to estimate the power generated by PV with L-shaped aluminum Fins.

Abstract	Background: Diabetes mellitus (DM) long-term macrovascular and microvascular complications pose significant health risks and increase mortality. In DM patients, metabolic syndrome (MetSy) either precedes or coexists with the condition. Central obesity, poor glycemic control, hypertension, elevated triglycerides (TG), and low high-density lipoproteins (HDL-C) are the components of MetSy. The purpose of this study is to investigate related diabetic microvascular complications in type 1 DM (T1DM) by comparing them with type 2 DM (T2DM), determine potential risk factors, and estimate prevalence based on the diagnosis of MetSy. Methodology: This study included 160 T1DM and 160 T2DM patients, totaling 320 DM patients. It was carried out from April 20, 2022, to September 31, 2023, at the Sheikh Zayed Hospital, Rahim Yar Khan, in the Outdoor Diabetic Clinic and Medicine Department. A unique questionnaire was utilized to gather socio-demographic, general, clinical, and laboratory data for the MetSy criteria set forth by the International Diabetes Federation (IDF). The blood pressure, BMI, and waist circumference (WC) were measured, while venous fasting blood was used to assess biochemical markers such as HDL-C, TG, and fasting blood sugar. The microvascular diabetes complications were identified using abdominal ultrasound, fundus ophthalmoscopy, and routine laboratory tests. We quantified and analyzed these variables individually for T1DM and T2DM patients with or without MetSy and compared them in the presence or absence of diabetes microvascular complications. Results: MetSy prevalence was 25.62% (41, n=160) for T1DM and 60.62% (97, n=160) for T2DM, totaling 43.12%. Among T1DM patients with MetSy, the majority were married males, aged 36-49 years, with a BMI of 26.69±2.20 kg/m2 and a WC of 85.12±4.23, and 67.5% (108) patients had diabetes microvascular complications. Comparatively, in T2DM with MetSy, the majority were married females aged 50-59 years with a BMI of 29.79 ± 4.65 kg/m² and a large WC of 93.43±4.49, and 75% (123) patients had diabetes microvascular complications. Overall, this study noted significant p-values for hypertension, elevated TG, low HDL-c, high WC, obesity, female gender in T2DM, and above 36 years of age in both groups with MetSy. Diabetic retinopathy (DR) at 32.4% (p<0.001) was the most prevalent T1DM microvascular complication, followed by nephropathy (30.6%), neuropathy (DN) at 28.1%, and gastroparesis (DG) at 22.3%. Whereas in T2DM, the prevalence of DN was 36.3% (p<0.001), followed by DKD (29.3%), DG (28.9%), and DR (24.9%). Conclusion: Nearly a quarter of T1DM patients had MetSy, with increasing percentages of overweight and obese patients who are more likely to have DR, DKD, or DN. MetSy affects two-thirds of T2DM patients, with married obese females aged 50-59 being more susceptible than males, who are more likely to suffer DN, DKD, or DG. Risk factors that contribute to the MetSy burden in T1DM and T2DM include hypertension, poor glycemic management, low HDL-C, high TG, and a higher BMI or WC. Increasing age, female gender in T2DM, longer diabetes duration, and co-morbid hypertension were independent predictors of microvascular complications. DR, DN, DKD, and gastroparesis are the most prevalent diabetic microvascular sequelae. The clinical management of diabetic patients with healthy lifestyle adaptations, good glycemic control, antihypertensives, and statins will contribute greatly to MetSy prevention.

Abstract	To analyze the effectiveness of Grade 1 and 2 joint mobilizations with NSAIDS in comparison with NSAIDS alone in pain management of knee osteoarthritis. Methods: In this randomized controlled trial patients with knee osteoarthritis (n=50) were divided into two groups, 25 patients in each group. Control group received diclofenac salt 50mg in twice daily dose along with quadriceps and knee joint exercises, while experimental group received knee joint mobilizations grade 1 and 2 in addition to the diclofenac salt 50mg twice daily dose and quadriceps and knee joint exercises. Main outcome was moderate, good or excellent control of pain with the intervention. Among secondary parameters were the effect on pain intensity, quality of life, and functionality.Grades of mobilizations used are defined as per Kaltenborn. Results: At the end of six weeks the knee pain with activities improved in the experimental group (mean7.44) compared to control group (mean 11.28) and pain with physical function also showed improvement in experimental (mean 25.84) as compared to control (mean 36.28). The stiffness also showed better mean values in the experimental (mean 2.08) to control (Mean 3.12). Visual analog scale readings also showed improvement in experimental group (mean 5.12) compared to control (mean 6.84). Conclusions: Grade 1 and 2 manual knee joint mobilizations in combination with diclofenac salt are more effective than diclofenac salt alone. Emphasis of this therapy should be given to reduce knee joint pain, stiffness and improvement in physical function on various activities.

Abstract	Abstract The primary objective of this study was to investigate the protective effects of ropinirole (ROP) medication given for an extended period following the induction of cognitive decline, oxidative stress, and deterioration of mitochondria in a Wistar rat model by Aβ1–42. This study aimed to examine the neuroprotective efficacy of ROP in a stereotaxis model of AD. The Wistar rats were randomly assigned into four groups. Group I was considered as a sham, group II served as Aβ‐infusion alone, Group III was Aβ1–42+ ROP (5 mg/kg/i.p.), and Group IV was Aβ1–42+ ROP (10 mg/kg/i.p.). Our research revealed that ROP (10 mg/kg, b.wt.) attenuates the cognitive deficits caused by Aβ1–42‐infused, which also correlates with the barnes maze, where (10 mg/kg, b.w.t.) shows significant improvement in spatial learning and memory. At the same time, ROP was rescued from oxidative damage, decreased lipid peroxidation rates, and inhibited acetylcholinesterase activity caused, demonstrating antioxidant benefits. In addition, a higher dose of ROP restored mitochondrial membrane potential in Aβ1–42 rats. Furthermore, histopathological examination showed that ROP treatment reduced neuronal loss, especially in the hippocampus. We conclude that ROP's protective effects in reducing oxidative stress and modulating mitochondrial function might have a propensity in AD pathogenesis.

Abstract	India has a unique position with its vast population and rapidly increasing healthcare demand. Dental health is integral to a holistic health care need, and a robust dental education system is necessary. Dental education in India is mainly regulated by the Dental Councilof India, setting broad guidelines. Universities having dental colleges and institutes develop fine curriculum development and evaluation details. General and Dental Pharmacology and Therapeuticsis a crucial subject taught to undergraduate dental students during the second year of a 4-year duration course. A dental graduate should be well trained in general and systemic pharmacology and rational therapeutics principles. This has been set as an objective by the Dental Council of India. Sound knowledge of the drug action mechanisms, indications, adverse drug reactions, drug interactions and contraindications, evidence-based medicine, and rational use of adrug is core to the allopathic system. The practical exercises on human simulation or computer-assisted learning are critical for understanding pharmacology. The subject of pharmacology for dental graduates has been allotted 70 hours of theory and 20 hours of practicals with almost the same syllabus as medical graduates. This article highlights the areas of concern concerning the deficiency of teaching hours and needed improvement in the curriculum to make it competent to achieve its objective. The authors bring this much-needed topic for discussion among academicians and for the attention of regulatory authorities.
