میں جب بھی دیر سے گھر لوٹتا تھا
(اور اکثر دیر سے ہی لوٹتا تھا)،
تو میرے گھر کا دروازہ
مرے ہاتھوں کی دستک کے لیے
بے چین ملتا تھا،،،
مگر
بے چینئ در کا مداوا
ہو نہ پاتا تھا،،،،
مری ماں کی نگاہیں،
کان، لب، دست-دعا.....
سب جاگتے
اور اپنے اپنے کام میں
مصروف رہتے تھے،،،،
(چھیالیس سال میری ماں کے معمولاتِ روز و شب نہیں بدلے...... مری آوارگی کی عمر کے سب سال
میرے ڈھب نہیں بدلے)،،،
مرے ہاتھوں پہ لکھی دستکیں
تشنہ ہی رہتی تھیں،
کہ
*میری ماں*
*مرے پیروں کی آہٹ پر ہی*
*دروازے کی کنڈی کھول دیتی تھی،،،*
مرے ہاتھوں کی اور در کی وہ
*"مشترکہ سی خواہش"*
اب ہمیشہ *"نا مکمّل"*
اور
*"ادھوری"* ہی رہے گی،،،
میں اب گھر سے زیادہ دیر تک
باہر نہیں رہتا،
میں اب در بند ہونے سے
بہت پہلے ہی
گھر کو لوٹ آتا ہوں،،،
*مری ماں*
*اپنے معمولاتِ روز و شب*
*مکمل کر گئ ہے....!!!
Aims Of Study: During COVID-19 people were forced to stay home and this increased the risk of limiting their PA and adaptation of sedentary behaviour hence our objective is to measure the impact of leisure activities on well-being during COVID-19.
Methodology: 366 participants were selected, using Non-probability convenient sampling from UOL and PGC. PA and well-being were assessed using IPAQ-short form and WHO-5 well-being questionnaire.
Results: IPAQ-short form with well-being Pearson Chi square was 638.012, Spearman correlation was 0.956 and p-value Asymptotic significance (2 sided) was .000 which means there is positive strong correlation between variables.
Limitations and Future Implication: Adults having ages 18-40yrs volunteered due to short time period and since our study limited to only 2 settings so to generalize our outcomes for mass population was not feasible. During lockdown gaining past medical history in data collection was impacted, it is suggested to include the role of Physiotherapist in improving health status by PA, create awareness among common population about role of PA and their relation with well-being also including diversity in age groups, ethnicity and localities is suggested.
Originality: Strong positive correlation between PA and well-being.
Conclusion: This study shows that during Covid-19 pandemic, those individuals who remained physically active had good impact on their health. Being physically active not only improves an individual’s physical fitness level but also helps to cope with psychological problems degrading one’s mental health so our study found out direct relation between physical activity levels and health status.
The facile method was used to synthesize platinum nanoparticles (Dox-Pt (0) NPs) which are stabilized by doxycycline. Platinum nitrate (PtNO3) with the addition of doxycycline was used to synthesize platinum (Pt) nanoparticles. The synthesized platinum nanoparticles were selected for antimicrobial activity using the qualitative well diffusion method by measuring the inhibition zone in mm against Gram positive bacteria such as S. aureus and S. pyogenes in Tryptic soy agar medium. The sterilized agar media was poured into Petri plates and allowed to solidify. On the surface of the media fresh microorganism cultures (108CFU ml-1, CFU, colony-forming units) were spread with the help of sterilized L-shaped glass loop. A cylinder glass pipette of 5 mm diameter (pre-sterilized) was used to bore cavities. The UV-vis-absorption spectroscopy was used to confirm the accumulation of (Dox-Pt (0) NPs) by exciting the distinctive Plasmon absorption maxima at 267nm. X-ray powder diffraction pattern confirmed the crystalline nature of prepared Pt (0) NPs. Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) was used to study the synthesized nanoparticles of platinum. These Doxycycline stabilized platinum nanoparticles were used to check the antibacterial activity of Gram positive bacteria Staphylococcus aureus and Staphylococcus pyogenes by comparing it with Doxycycline. The results showed the great tremendous effect against Gram positive bacteria Staphylococcus aureus and Staphylococcus pyogenes. These Doxycycline stabilized platinum nanoparticles (Dox-Pt (0) NPs) also showed its tremendous effects against anti-cancer therapies.
