    Abstract Whole exome sequencing is commonly used as clinical exome in almost every hospital to diagnose rare and complex genetic disorders. Still, there are a lot of undiagnosed patients that require correct molecular diagnosis for treatment strategies. Different techniques such as structural variants, STRs, long read sequencing, pan genomics, proteomics, transcriptomics etc could be employed to check the undiagnosed/negative cases.

    Abstract The escalating trend of greenhouse gas emissions presents a dual threat to both food security and the exacerbation of global warming. Addressing this pressing issue demands concerted efforts on local and global scales to champion sustainable food production and foster environmental benefits. In 2015, a pivotal field experiment was conducted in the North China Plain, aiming to delineate the intricate balance between agricultural productivity and environmental stewardship. This study comprised eight meticulously designed treatments, incorporating two key components: the evaluation of economic and environmental parameters encompassing carbon footprint, energy consumption, and the carbon sustainability index. Notably, while the carbon sustainability index exhibited improvement, it also revealed a 9.4% increase in emissions compared to the baseline, underscoring the nuanced trade-offs involved. The findings underscored the efficacy of no-tillage (NT) practices coupled with soybean-based crop rotation, mitigating yield reduction compared to conventional tillage (RT). However, the optimal yield was observed in the RT-MW treatment, amalgamating conventional tillage with minimum tillage practices. Moreover, despite the higher cost associated with soybeans relative to milled wheat, their cultivation yielded a notable increase in net income. These compelling results advocate for the adoption of conservation agriculture as a means to optimize the delicate equilibrium between environmental preservation and economic prosperity. Furthermore, the study underscores the imperative for further research endeavors aimed at devising highly productive agricultural systems that seamlessly integrate environmental sustainability with economic viability, echoing the crucial insights gleaned from analogous contexts.

    Abstract There is growing importance of green finance as a means to finance sustainable projects and reduce carbon emissions. Green bonds have emerged as an important financing tool in this context, and there is a need to understand how they are interconnected with other components of the green finance ecosystem, such as renewable energy and carbon markets. This study investigates the interconnectivity of green finance by analyzing the dynamic spillover effects among green bonds, renewable energy stocks, and carbon markets. Using daily data spanning from January 2010 to December 2020, vector autoregressive models and time-varying parameter models are applied to examine the transmission channels of shocks among these assets. The results reveal significant dynamic spillover effects between green bonds and renewable energy stocks, as well as between carbon markets and renewable energy stocks. Additionally, the findings suggest a complementary relationship between green bonds and carbon markets. This study provides insights into the interdependence of different green financial instruments and their role in promoting sustainable development. The outcomes of the research can guide policymakers, investors, and other stakeholders in making informed decisions regarding green finance.

    Abstract This research explores gold's safe-haven properties amid oil price instability, focusing on the COVID-19 pandemic. The study examines how gold hedges against oil price swings in the context of the pandemic's exceptional market circumstances. A VAR (Vector Autoregressive) model analyzes gold and oil prices from 2006 through 2021. The VAR model reflects the dynamic interactions and interdependencies between these two essential commodities in the context of oil price volatility and the COVID-19 pandemic. This analysis shows that gold protects against oil price volatility and the COVID-19 pandemic-gold buffers against oil price swings due to its strong inverse association with oil prices. Gold offers investors security and asset preservation during significant oil price volatility. In light of oil price volatility and the COVID-19 pandemic, the study helps explain gold's importance as a diversification tool and haven asset. Investors, policymakers, and market players should consider gold as a hedge against oil price volatility and economic instability.

    Abstract The present report describes the case of a 53-year-old male patient with solitary functioning right kidney admitted to the emergency room with acute abdominal pain, deranged blood sugar, and fever (38.5 °C). Laboratory investigations and computed tomography findings revealed urinary tract infection, deranged renal functions, raised inflammatory markers associated with the presence of gas in the collecting system, characterizing unilateral emphysematous pyelitis caused by Gram-negative bacteria. The present case report emphasizes the occurrence of this disease as a deranged blood glucose complication.

    Abstract Background: Carbapenem resistance is epidemic worldwide, these last resort antimicrobials are listed in the WHO 'watch group' with higher resistance potential. During the years 2017-18 Pakistan Antimicrobial Resistance Surveillance System reported an increase in carbapenem resistance. However, a comprehensive information on prevalence and molecular epidemiology of carbapenem resistance in Pakistan is not available. This systematic review and meta-analysis is aimed to report the current carbapenem resistance situation in Pakistan and its treatment options.
    Methods: In this systematic review and meta-analysis, we investigated the pooled prevalence (PPr) of carbapenem resistance in
    Results: From two academic databases Web of Science and PubMed we identified 343 studies. Eighty-eight studies were selected for the systematic review and meta-analysis. Seventy-four studies were selected for phenotypic analysis, 36 for genotypic analysis, and 31 for available treatment options. PPr-ID of 12% [0.12 (0.07, 0.16)] was observed for phenotypic carbapenem resistance in
    Conclusion: In conclusion, we found that NDM-1 producing carbapenem resistant

    Abstract South Asia is primarily affected by environmental degradation. As a result, it is worthwhile to explore the impact of international capital flows on the ecological sustainability of the South Asian region. There are many studies in the literature on the CO₂-remittances nexus, CO₂-FDI nexus, and CO₂-economic growth; however, no study has yet taken remittances and FDI into account in the symmetric and asymmetric model for the South Asian region. To address the research gap, this study investigates the effect of international capital flows, fossil fuel energy consumption, and economic growth on South Asian carbon emissions. This study examines the effect of fossil fuel energy consumption, remittances, foreign direct investment, and economic growth on the environmental sustainability of the South Asian region from 1975 to 2020. Autoregressive distributive lag (ARDL) and non-linear ARDL (NARDL) models are used to estimate the symmetrical and asymmetrical relationships among the variables. The findings of the ARDL models reveal that fossil fuel energy consumption and economic growth increase while remittances and FDI decrease carbon dioxide (CO₂) in the long run. According to the NARDL empirical findings, positive remittances and negative FDI shock reduce CO₂. Besides, the positive and negative fossil fuel energy consumption shock increases CO₂. Moreover, the positive (negative) economic growth shock increases (decreases) CO₂. The cumulative dynamic multipliers revealed the adjustment pattern to new long-run equilibria. The study recommends that policymakers regard remittances and FDI as policy instruments, particularly when developing long-term strategies and policies connected to environmental quality.
