شاہد ذکی(۱۹۷۴ء پ) کا اصل نام شاہد محمود ہے۔ آپ سیالکوٹ کے گاؤں گجرال میں پیدا ہوئے۔ آپ نے ایم۔اے انگلش مرے کالج سیالکوٹ سے کیا۔ آپ لیڈر شپ کالج سیالکوٹ میں بطور لیکچرار انگلش تدریسی فر ا ئض سر انجام دے رہے ہیں۔ پروین شاکر اور احمد فراز کو پڑھنے کے بعد شاعری کے شوق میں اضافہ ہوا لیکن اس شوق کو بام عروج تک پہنچانے میں شکیب جلالی کی شاعری نے اہم کردار ادا کیا۔(۱۱۶۲)
’’خوشبو کے تعاقب میں‘‘ شاہد ذکی کا پہلا شعری مجموعہ پنجاب ادبی مرکز گوجرانوالہ نے ۱۹۹۵ء میں شائع کیا۔ دوسرا شعری مجموعہ ’’خوابوں سے خالی آنکھیں‘‘ ہے۔ جسے الحمد پبلی کیشنز لاہور نے ۲۰۰۱ء میں شائع کیا۔ ’’خوابوں سے خوشبو آتی ہے‘‘ شاہد کا تیسرا شعری مجموعہ ہے جسے الحمد پبلی کیشنز نے ۱۹۹۹ء میں شائع کیا۔ شاہد ذکی کا چوتھا شعری مجموعہ ’’سفال میں آگ‘‘ ہم خیال پبلشرز فیصل آباد نے ۲۰۰۷ء میں شائع کیا۔ ان مطبوعہ شعری مجموعوں کے علاوہ شاہد کے پاس شعری سرمایہ مسودات کی صورت میں موجود ہے ۔ جن کا ابھی نام تجویز نہیں کیا گیا ہے۔
دریائے چناب کے کنارے خاص مضافاتی ماحول میں رہنے والا غزل گو شاعر شاہد ذکی اپنے حساس فکری رویوں کی بنا پر فطرت کے حسن کے مطالعہ میں مصروف ہے۔ وہ اپنے مشاہدے کی اساس پر کھڑا ہے۔ اپنے ماحول کے ایک ایک زاویے کا مشاہدہ کر رہا ہے۔ محبت کے حوالے سے معاشرے میں ہونے والی زیادتیوں پر تو یہ کانپ ہی اٹھتا ہے۔ اپنی فکری مسافتوں پر چلنے والا یہ معصوم اور مخلص انسان دراصل درد اور کرب کا شاعر ہے۔ پوہ پھوٹتی صبح کا منظر ہو یا شام کا سرمئی سماں ،آگ برساتا سورج ہو کہ جل برساتے بادل یہ دکھ ہی رقم کرتا ہے۔ ان کی غزلوں میں غمِ دوراں اور...
Heart failure (HF) is a chronic illness with high prevalence and mortality, leading toeconomic burden ofhealth due to prolonged hospital stay and re-admissions. Failure to comprehend the importance of identifying mental illnesses could lead to explanations that why the morbidity and mortality of heart failure patients endure to be very high. Objective: To determine the frequency of anxiety and depression in heart failure patients. Methods: It is a descriptive cross sectional study including 323 CHF patients admitted to the Faisalabad Institute of Cardiology hospital, 250 were males and 73 were females, mean age was 54.1 ± 9.2 years having 70 years as maximum and 25 years as minimum. Data was collected with the help of HADS questionnaire. Patients were interviewed for assessment of anxiety and depression. Data was analyzed using SPSS version 24. Mean and standard deviation was calculated for quantitative data and for qualitative data frequency and percentageswas calculated. To measure the association of anxiety and depression with age categories and gender, chi square test was used. P values less than and equal to 0.05 were taken as significant. Results: The results showed that 43% subjects had <11 score indicating no anxiety, 57% had >11score indicating anxiety. 45% subjects had<11 score indicating no depression, 55% had >11score indicating depression. Conclusions: The study concluded that frequency of depression and anxiety is high in congestive heart failure patients. Strategies are required to assess and diagnose these mental illnesses to establish early treatment which may foster multidisciplinary health care team approach and interventions that address the psychological burden.
Among pulses, pea is an important legume crop which is not only the major source of proteins but also provide significant amount of carbohydrates, minerals and vitamin B complex. The current research work was planned to study genetic diversity among available pea germplasm and to evaluate inheritance pattern controlling seed yield related traits in Pisum sativum L. For this purpose 99 pea genotypes were field evaluated following RCBD replicated thrice. Data were taken for seed yield and its related traits. All the studied parameters showed significant amount of variation among genotypes. The cluster analysis classified 99 pea accessions into three clusters on the basis of genetic diversity of seed yield and its related traits. Eight accessions namely 19605, 20202, 26710, 20300, 19716, 20126, 26701 and 20153 were selected from cluster I and III for hybridization. Selected genotypes were crossed in 8×8 half diallel fashion excluding reciprocals to study the inheritance patterns for yield and quality traits. Twenty eight F1 crosses and parents were field evaluated during winter season 2015-2016 while F2 of all crosses was evaluated during winter season 2016-2017. Analysis of variance displayed significant amount of variation for all the studied parameters in both generations. The accession 20126 was good general combiner for number of branches per plant, biological yield, carotenoids contents and seed yield per plant in F1 generation while the accession 20153 was good general combiner for pod length, hundred fresh seed weight, hundred dry seed weight, harvest index and seed yield per plant in F2 generation. The cross combination 20202 × 26710 was good combination for pod length, pod width and seed yield per plant in F1 generation while the cross combination 19605 × 20202 was found best combination for seed yield per plant in F2 generation due to maximum significant and positive specific combining ability effects for seed yield per plant. The cross combination 20202 × 26710 showed maximum mid parent as well as better parent heterotic effects for pod length and seed yield per plant in F1 generation. The correlation analysis in F2 generation showed that number of branches per plant, pod length, biological yield and harvest index was significantly and positively correlated with seed yield per plant in Pisum sativum L. The cross combination 20202 × 26710 may be used as hybrid due to its higher specific combining ability variance and heterotic effects for seed yield per plant. Presence of non additive effects advocated the importance of heterosis breeding for development of high yielding varieties in pea.
