In order to examine chest X-rays (CXRs) of ambulatory patients diagnosed with COVID-19 in a field isolation center, our aim is to determine the proportion of patients with normal versus abnormal chest radiographs. Moreover, in cases where abnormal findings are present on the CXR, our goal is to document the distribution and patterns of these abnormalities. \u0000Method: This prospective observational study was conducted on a cohort of 510 consecutive COVID-19 patients who tested positive for the virus and presented at the field isolation center between March 15th and May 15th, 2020. The study encompassed patients of all ages and both genders, with the exclusion criteria being patients requiring intensive care and those with unreadable CXRs due to technical limitations. The review of CXRs was performed by two certified radiologists, ensuring reliable and accurate assessments. Age, gender, and X-ray findings were noted. \u0000Results: Among the total of 510 patients included in the study, 463 (90.8%) were male, while 47 (9.2%) were female. The age range of the study population spanned from 12 to 64 years, with the majority falling within the 23-33 year age group. During the review of CXRs, 433 (84.90%) were classified as normal, while 77 (15.10%) were deemed abnormal. The most frequently observed abnormal pattern was ground glass opacification, accounting for 54.5% of the cases, followed by the reticular pattern at 45.5%. \u0000Conclusion: CXRs obtained from confirmed COVID-19 patients were normal in 85% of the patients. The most common abnormality seen in our study population was involvement of the lower lobes with patchy peripheral ground glass opacities or reticular shadowing, which was focal or multifocal in location.","PeriodicalId":349972,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Fatima Jinnah Medical University","volume":"37 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-06-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130828126","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The academic performance of students is a key feature in teaching. The present study aims to determine the relationship between academic performance, purpose in life and hopelessness among final year MBBS students, by taking hopelessness as predicting variable. \u0000Methodology: A Correlational study was conduct at Fatima Jinnah Medical University, Lahore Pakistan. A total  no. of 240 final year medical students were included by using convenient sampling technique and they were administered Purpose in Life (PIL) Scale and Beck’s Hopelessness Scale (BHS) along with demographic details. The academic performance of students was measured through 4th year academic scores. Hopelessness was taken as independent variable (IV), while, academic performance and purpose in life served as dependent variables (DVs). \u0000Results: The mean age of students was 22.5 years. Results found negative correlation between hopelessness and academic performance (p<0.01), as well as a negative correlation between hopelessness and purpose in life (p <0.01). Hopelessness negatively predicted academic performance (β= -.19, p<.01) and purpose in life (β= -.72, p<.001) among students. Total 25% students were in the normal range of hopelessness, 45.4% students scored in mild range, 23.8% students were in the moderate category, while 5.8% students were found in the severely hopeless category. \u0000Conclusion: The study concluded that hopelessness does not only predict purpose in life negatively among students but also affect their academic performance. A wide range of students were found hopeless therefore, various interventions for the prediction of hopelessness in various academic institutes should be made by involving appropriate educational and administrative measures.","PeriodicalId":349972,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Fatima Jinnah Medical University","volume":"8 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-06-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130485318","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Community wearing of facemask helped lowering the incidence of COVID-19. The objective was to determine the public opinion regarding prolonged mask-wearing practice, and to find out the behavioral differences as pertinent compensations for not wearing that may help combat pandemics because of emerging infections. \u0000Methodology: This cross-sectional study carried out in the outpatient departments of Military Hospital (MH) Rawalpindi, Pakistan from January to June 2021 after ethical approval. Participants selected by non-probability convenience sampling technique of different residential, economic and educational backgrounds, above 16 years of age, from both genders to give their opinion on a validated questionnaire, “Multidimensional face mask perceptions scale” with eight domains. \u0000Results: Among 175 participants, almost 81.7% participants were of the view that when they do not wear mask it is because facemasks get overheated and disrupt the breathing, 60.6% adopted compensation ways by avoiding people and 45.7% considered its wearing a hassle. Female participants felt more uncomfortable by disrupted breathing (p =0.029), male participants reflected about value of independence (p<0.001), and participants from rural area thought a difficult access to get facemasks (p =0.003). \u0000Conclusion: The most likely reason for not wearing mask among participants was uncomfortable breathing. The other reasons includes adopting social distancing guidelines as a compensatory measure, finding facemask wearing practice a hassle, interference with freedom and access issues by rural population.

This study was designed to study the frequency of persistent hyperparathyroidism in our patients and to identify the potential causal factors for persistent PTH elevation following parathyroidectomy. \u0000Methodology: The study included prospectively collected data on post-operative patients of primary hyperparathyroidism who underwent parathyroidectomy from 2004-2018.

This study was carried out to determine the prevalence of delayed speech in children of working and non-working mothers and to determine if speech and language development in children are affected by the working status of the mothers. \u0000Subjects and methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted at Mayo Hospital, Services Hospital, Sheikh Zaid Hospital, Lahore College for Women University, and the University of Lahore, Pakistan. A total of 288 mothers were recruited. Among them, 144 were working women (aged 25-40, working hours 6-8 for at least 5 days a week), including all professionals, teachers, doctors, and job holders.

Data were analyzed using SPSS. \u0000Results: The results showed that 44 (30.6%) children of working women and 40 (27.8%) children of non-working women had delayed speech. The overall prevalence of delayed speech in children was 29.1%. No significant relationship was found between the working status of mothers with speech delay. The socioeconomic parameter (Kuppuswami scale) of the study revealed that 29% of delayed speech children (late talkers) belonged to the upper class, while 65.5% belonged to the middle class. Of delayed speech children 41.7% lived in a nuclear family and 58.3% in a joint family system. A significant relationship between delayed speech was seen with gender, birth order, social class, and the schooling status of the child. \u0000Conclusions: Delayed speech is significantly related to gender, birth order, and schooling status.
