Abstract. Measurements of the molecular composition of organic aerosol (OA) constituents improve our understanding of sources, formation processes, and physicochemical properties of OA. One instrument providing such data at a time resolution of minutes to hours is the chemical ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometer with filter inlet for gases and aerosols (FIGAERO-CIMS). The technique collects particles on a filter, which are subsequently desorbed, and the evaporated molecules are ionized and analyzed in the mass spectrometer. However, long-term measurements using this technique and/or field deployments at several sites simultaneously require substantial human and financial resources. The analysis of filter samples collected outside the instrument (offline) may provide a more cost-efficient alternative and makes this technology available for the large number of particle filter samples collected routinely at many different sites globally. Filter-based offline use of the FIGAERO-CIMS limits this method, albeit to particle-phase analyses, which is likely at a reduced time resolution compared to online deployments. Here we present the application and assessment of offline FIGAERO-CIMS, using Teflon and quartz fiber filter samples that were collected in autumn 2018 in urban Beijing. We demonstrate the feasibility of the offline application with a “sandwich” sample preparation for the over 900 identified organic compounds with (1) high signal-to-noise ratios, (2) high repeatability, and (3) linear signal response to the filter loadings. Comparable overall signals were observed between the quartz fiber and Teflon filters for 12 and 24 h samples but with larger signals for semi-volatile compounds for the quartz fiber filters, likely due to adsorption artifacts. We also compare desorption profile (thermogram) shapes for the two filter materials. Thermograms are used to derive volatility qualitatively based on the desorption temperature at which the maximum signal intensity of a compound is observed (Tmax⁡). While we find that Tmax⁡ can be determined with high repeatability (±5.7 ∘C) from the duplicate tests for one filter type, we observe considerable differences in Tmax⁡ between the quartz and Teflon filters, warranting further investigation into the thermal desorption characteristics of different filter types. Overall, this study provides a basis for expanding OA molecular characterization by FIGAERO-CIMS to situations where and when deployment of the instrument itself is not possible.

Pakistan is the world’s 5th most populated country. This growing population is causing numerous social and environmental problems. By the increase in population, energy demand is increasing day by day. Pakistan, where majority of the population is living in rural areas is using uncleaned cooking fuel due to which CO2 emission is increasing that is further a cause of environmental degradation. Based on the data (for the period from 1980 to 2019) of World Development Indicators, this study intends to examine the association between urban population, and energy use with CO2 emission. Unit root test was applied to check stationarity of data and after checking the stationarity status of variables, ARDL (Auto regressive distributive lag model) techniques was applied on data. The outcomes of the study showed that trade openness, urbanization, and energy consumption have significant and positive effects on environmental degradation. This study suggest that government must plan population and take steps towards the use of clean cooking fuels to control environmental degradation.

Dietary Modifications in Patients with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome: A Public Health Concern
Authors: Faridi Tallat Anwar 
Published: March 2023

Occasional periods or no menstrual periods at all are typical symptoms of polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS). It is due to an excessive synthesis of the hormone androgens, people with PCOS frequently have numerous ovarian cysts [1]. According to literature between 33 and 83 percent of women with PCOS who are overweight or obese shows signs of acne, hirsutism, and male pattern baldness and if not managed high blood pressure, cardiovascular diseases and endometrial cancer. Insulin levels in PCOS patients are frequently reported to be higher than usual. The pancreas is where hormone insulin is made [2]. It works with the body's cells in converting sugar (glucose) into energy. The sugar levels in blood may increase if your body doesn't create enough insulin [3]. This can also occur when you develop insulin resistance, which prevents you from adequately using the insulin that you do make [4]. The body may try to produce excessive amounts of insulin if you develop insulin resistance in an effort to maintain normal blood sugar levels. Your ovaries may start to create more androgens like testosterone if your insulin levels are too high [5]. The obese and overweight according to BMI can cause the insulin resistance [6]. Due to their insulin resistance, people with PCOS typically deal with this

issue, which can keep reduced weight more challenging [7]. It could be more challenging to regulate insulin resistance and, as a result, weight reduction if you eat a diet high in refined carbs, which including starchy and sugary meals [8].

Hepatitis C virus (HCV) is a significant cause of morbidity and mortality in haemodialysis patients. Patients on haemodialysis are at high risk for HCV, with frequency of infection several times higher than that in non-hemodialysis patients. Objective: To determine the frequency of HCV infection in End Stage Renal Disease (ESRD) patients on maintenance hemodialysis. Methods: The Descriptive Cross-sectional study was conducted at Department of Nephrology, Liaquat University of Medical and Health Sciences Jamshoro. All patients above 18 years of age and below 60 years of age of both gender having end stage renal disease on maintenance hemodialysis with 3 months or more of maintenance hemodialysis were consecutively enrolled. Post hemodialysis patient’s serum was checked for anti HCV antibody by enzyme linked immune-sorbent assay (ELISA). Presence of anti HCV antibodies in serum detected by ELISA was labeled as HCV positive. Results: Of 90 patients, the mean age of the patients was 46.85 ±8.21 years. There were 54 (60%) males and 36 (40%) females. The mean duration of hemodialysis was 10.39 ±3.31 months. The frequency of HCV was found to be 21 (23.3%). A significant association of HCV was found with gender (p-value 0.006) whereas age (p-value 0.597) and duration of hemodialysis (p-value 0.715) was found to be insignificant. Conclusion: The frequency of HCV infection was found to be 23% in ESRD patients on maintenance hemodialysis. Early recognition and treatment of which improves the patient outcome.
ALTERNATIVE SOURCES OF ENERGY IN SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT GOALS: A STUDY ON SOLAR ENERGY
Authors: Sahu Omprakash 
Published: March 2023

The environment is an important part of our day-to-day life and it fulfils our basic needs such as food, shelter, and clothing. In our environment, we can find natural resources, biotic and abiotic things. For parochial interest, human beings are gradually destroying the environment and fulfilling present needs, but more and more natural resources are exhausted, which are not abundantly found in the world. Day by day, due to the population explosion, there is a danger to the environment. Basically, there are two types of energy resources, renewable and non
renewable sources of energy. Renewable sources can be recycled and abundantly found, such as solar energy, wind energy, hydropower energy, and non-renewable sources of energy are fossil fuels, such as coal, natural gas, nuclear energy, etc. Non-renewable sources of energy are found in a limited way. Through coal, thermal energy is produced, but it is harmful to the environment and exhaustible. Therefore, the government of India has initiated the International Solar Alliance with 121 countries to produce green energy through solar panels. The present research may show, how solar energy will be an alternative source of energy for environmental preservation. Through NITI Aayog, the government is focusing on renewable sources of energy for solving environmental problems. It has also kept a target that by 2050, to make India a zero carbon emission country.

Purpose: An understanding of financial literacy is important not only for business actors but also for individuals and households; even there is a need to introduce this all-important skill to children early. There is a projection that the financial behavior of the young generation will have a better influence on the global economy than that of the previous generation. Therefore, it is crucial that today’s young generation understands financial literacy. This study aims to measure how digital financial literacy and financial confidence can influence both the financial behavior and financial well-being of the younger generation.
Design/methodology/approach: The participants in this study are university students from all over Indonesia. This is a quantitative research project that uses online questionnaires, and the collected data is processed using structural equations mode-partial least squares (SEM-PLS) with the Smart-PLS application. Questionnaires have been distributed and obtained by 353 respondents to be processed by the Smart-PLS application.
Finding: The result indicates that digital financial literacy has a significant effect on financial behavior, and financial behavior also has a significant effect on financial well-being. Meanwhile, financial confidence influences both financial well-being and financial behavior.
Conclusion: This research contributes to the body of knowledge by providing information to the public about the importance of digital financial literacy for individuals to control their financial behaviour amidst the rapid growth of financial technology. Furthermore, the research findings are enriched with literature on digital financial literacy, which is still rarely studied. However, a limitation of this study is the fact that the respondents are mainly women. Therefore, there should be further research involving a higher number of respondents and covering a wider research location.

Published: March 2023

Background and objective:
Intravenous thrombolysis (IVT) with alteplase tPA (tissue plasminogen Activator) is the FDA approved treatment for acute ischemic stroke. The objective of this study was to determine the hurdles of intravenous thrombolysis in acute ischemic stroke in Balochistan.
Methods:
A prospective cross-sectional observational study was carried out from June 2021 to December 2021 at Neurology department of Bolan Medical Complex Hospital Quetta on 272 patients of acute ischemic stroke who fulfilled the criteria. Proforma was filled by relative or patient after informed consent. Proforma included sex, age, diagnosis, time of presentation after stroke and reason of delay. Data was collected, tabulated, and statistically analyzed using an IBM Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS), version 20.
Results:
Out of 272 patients, 156 patients were male and 116 patients were female. Only two patients presented within 4.5 hours of onset of acute ischemic stroke, 27 patients within 13- 24 hours,44 patients within 25-72 hours and 171 patients beyond three days. Two-hundred patients first took advice from faith healer (peer), 50 patients from general practitioner and 22 patients preferred neurologist.
Conclusion:
Very few patients presented within Alteplase window. Major reason of delay was contacting faith healer first. There is necessity of awareness campaigns to overcome this hurdle and to minimize barriers for improving access to thrombolysis and specialized stroke care in Balochistan.

Published: March 2023

Introduction Delirium is frequently multifactorial, and causes are often missed in clinical practice. The Aetiology in Delirium - Diagnostic Support Tool (AiD-DST) was developed to improve recognition of the causes. We undertook an evaluation of an electronic version of AiD-DST. Methods A development and evaluation life cycle of improvement was used. In phase 1, alpha testing among the development group evaluated technical performance of AiD-DST. In phase 2, we performed a cycle of beta testing among junior doctors to assess impressions of AiD-DST using Think Aloud methodology. We grouped responses into themes and made changes to AiD-DST by the development group accordingly. In phase 3, usability and acceptance of AiD-DST was assessed using the mHealth App Usability Questionnaire (MAUQ). Results In phase 1, software issues were identified, and modifications made. In phase 2, feedback was obtained from 29 junior doctors. Three cycles of feedback were obtained. The number of items identified after each cycle were 20, 12 and 7, respectively. Content was grouped into themes of; ‘style and grammar’, ‘formatting’, ‘IT’, ‘missed diagnosis’ and ‘other concerns.’ In phase 3, 20 participants completed MAUQ questionnaire. Overall, the average score was 6.36 (SD=0.8) with 7 as the highest attainable score. This translates to agreement up to strong agreement concerning usability of AiD-DST. Conclusion After a process of optimisation, AiD-DST has been shown to be a usable and potentially useful diagnostic support tool to help junior doctors identify cause(s) of delirium. An implementation study is planned.
