This study provides the first annotated check list of Vespidae Pakistan. It is based on National Insect Museum collection and various studies in Among 105 identified taxa, 77 species 28 subspecies are recorded four subfamilies Eumeninae, Masarinae, Polistinae Vespinae. Three new records for fauna Pakistan added, namely Anterhynchium mellyi, Antepipona ovalis Eumenes coronatus coronatus. total, 12 species/subspecies endemic to Pakistan, Ancistrocerus pakistanus, luteipes, Antodynerus...
Abstract Background Bacterial pneumonia is one of the leading causes mortality in US, particularly among those aged 65 and older. No study has been done on this population to understand patterns based demographic characteristics such as age, gender, race, geographic regions, which helps enhance evidence-based interventions for vulnerable age group. Trends Pneumonia-related AAMRs APC stratified by race older adults. Methods This involves a two-decade CDC WONDER data bacterial...
Abstract Background Despite advancements in HIV treatment, there remains a significant gap understanding mortality rates among reproductive-aged women with the United States. To enhance evidence-based interventions, this study aims to delineate trends from 1999-2020, focusing on demographic characteristics such as age, race, and geographic regions. HIV-related AAMRs per 100,000 individuals stratified by race aged 15-44 States, 1999 2020. Methods This involved retrospective analysis using CDC...
The present study was conducted to describe the variations in morphological characteristics of different selected populations indigenous chickens. Five chickens (localities) Chhajjian, KP, Pakistan, were studied based on qualitative traits recorded for a total 100 Each contains multiple variants plumage colors and other physical features. average flock size observed be 38. Predominant color grayish mixtures along with percentages localities. Pea comb dominant type all Most yellow skinned....
Abstract Hepatitis C virus (HCV) is the serious global public health burden of liver disease. Approximately 170 million people in world are infected with (HCV). In Pakistan, where disease has high occurrence rate. The present study envisages an up-to-date prevalence HCV and genotypic distribution general population Mardan District, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (KP), Pakistan. blood samples from 6,538 individuals including 3,263 males 3,275 females were analyzed for hepatitis surface antigen by...
The genomic miscellany of malaria parasites can help inform the intensity transmission and identify potential deficiencies in control programs. This study was aimed at investigating miscellany, allele frequencies, MOI P. falciparum infection.A total 85 confirmed isolates out 100 were included this that collected from patients aged 4 months to 60 years nine districts Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Province. Parasite DNA extracted 200µL whole blood samples using Qiagen extraction kit following...
Abstract Hepatitis B virus infection is perilous among the five types of Hepatitis, as it remains clinically asymptomatic. The present study draws up-to-date prevalence (HBV) in general population Mardan, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Pakistan. blood samples from 4803 individuals including 2399 male and 2404 females were investigated. All suspected analyzed for hepatitis surface antigen using Immuno-chromatographic test (ICT), Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), followed by Reverse...
The present study reveals socio-economic and biological condition of Saif-ul-Malook National Park, District Mansehra, Pakistan. Study was conducted during May to October, 2011. Questionnaire developed for data collection based on socioeconomic conditions. In conditions gender, age, marital status, educational level, monthly income the local people discussed while in second section include flora fauna parks adjacent area. A total 37 interviewed, all them were male which 2 >18 makes 5.405%, 18...
Abstract Malakand region is an endemic area for cutaneous leishmaniasis (CL). However, there are limited number of studies this disease in Pakistan. Therefore, a study was conducted to understand the level awareness attitude and practice among residents Makaland towards CL vectors. This adopted cross-sectional approach with total 400 respondents (n=93 rural n= 307 urban). Overall, population (61.2%) were well-informed role sand fly transmitting diseases, but most lack knowledge on vector’s...
Abstract Plasmodium vivax is the most common human malaria parasite in Asian countries including Pakistan. Present study was designed to explore genetic diversity of plasmodium genotypes based on Pvmsp-3α and Pvmsp-3βgenes using allelic specific nested PCR RFLP assays markers from field isolates district Mardan, Blood samples 200 P. malarial patients were collected after taking their written informed consent. Genetic products determined by Restriction Fragment Length Polymorphism (RFLP)...
Abstract The present research was carried out to explore the spider fauna of Buner valley with taxonomic study from February 2018 January 2019. For this purpose samples were collected, four times at each month 4 tehsils: Daggar, Gagra, Mandan and Totalai. Two methods used, hand picking sweep net for collection samples. During day night, three habitats, arid area, agriculture land building area search collection. A total 534 collected sampling sites, in which 379 belonging family Araniedae....
Abstract For the proper growth of fish, it is necessary to feed fish with a and balanced diet. A study was conducted find out effect different protein-based diets on fingerlings Tor putitora (mahseer). dietary protein levels 35%, 40%, 45%, 50% were prepared. The weight gain, standard rate (SGR), food conversion ratio (FCR), percent efficiency (FCE), (PER) studied. An increase observed in an concentration up 45%. fed 45% diet shown highest growth, followed by 50%, 35%. SGR value greatest for...
In the present study, nest architectural patterns, elemental analysis and their behavior were carried out in three wasp species: Vespa velutina (Lepeletier), Polistes flavus (Cresson) Sceliphron formosum (Smith) from different localities of Mansehra, Pakistan. The V. was completely closed except for one opening entry or exit with 1-10 layers hexagonal cells inside nest. nests P. found among bunches leaves trees 1-5 same as velutina. Nests S. pitcher-shaped, muddy places, consisted cells....

Abstract The present study was aimed at comparing the brain size of mahseer (Tor putitora) in relation to their body weight and standard length, investigate potential impact rearing environment on development fish. three its subdivisions cerebellum (CB), optic tectum (OT), telencephalon (TC) were measured for both wild hatchery-reared data analysed using multiple analysis covariance (MANCOVA), (ANCOVA), discriminate function (DFA). We found fish reared under hatchery conditions exhibit...
Abstract Snow trout (Schizothorax plagiostomus) is an economically important freshwater fish, mostly found in northern areas of water reservoirs Pakistan.
