دشتِ افسوس میں اک پھول کھلا ہو جیسے

دشتِ افسوس میں اک پھول کھلا ہو جیسے
تو خزاں زاد شجر سے ہی ملا ہو جیسے

ایک مدت سے بیابانی تھی دل میں میرے
تو مرے غم مرے ہر دکھ کا صلہ ہو جیسے

روح مجروح تھی اور ادھڑے تھے ٹانکے دل کے
تیرے آنے سے ہر اک زخم سلا ہو جیسے

تم سے بچھڑیں تو کسی طور بھی ہم جی نہ سکیں
سانس تو سانس ہے تم دل کی جلا ہو جیسے

تم فضاؔ چھائی ہو اک ابرِ کرم کی صورت
ہم نہ مل پائے یہی خود سے گلہ ہو جیسے

Factors Related to the Implementation of Evidenced-based Practice (EBP) of Nursing Staffing Levels in Hospitals: A Literature Review

The implementation of Evidenced-based practice (EBP) was one of the factors in increasing the quality of health services as an ideal problem-solving approach. The ability of nurses to appliance EBP was influenced by many factors, not only on individual nurses consisting by the support of unit leader and colleague. The purpose of this study was to determine the factors associated with the implementation of EBP at the care room level establishing on the support of coworkers and nursing managers. This writing used a literature review study, from several databases namely PubMed, ProQuest, Google Scholar, and ScienceDirect with a limitation of the last 5 years. 17 journals met the inclusion criteria and the results of a literature review study show: eight journals conclude that the support of colleagues and authority in changing practices affects the implementation of EBP, 13 journals concluded the role of managerial nurses affects the implementation of EBP consisting of leadership support and mentorship including the lack of knowledge and skills of nursing leaders regarding EBP. Data from the collected and identified literature study clearly showed that EBP knowledge and skills of nursing leaders related to EBP are important factors in increasing the implementation of EBP but co-worker factors can be a supporter and also an obstacle to the implementation of EBP if it is not well managed.

Ranking in Academic Social Networks

Academic social networks have emerged as an integral part of today’s scholarly societies, being a key resource that facilitates scientific ranking involving authors, publications, and venues (journals, conferences and workshops). Such rankings play an essential role in today’s Scientometrics. In this research, we study and inspect the methods for ranking of academic entities that constitute an academic social network. Ranking of authors is becoming a challenging task with continuous growth in size of computationally analyzable data and dynamic nature of scholarly networks. Ranking of authors is important for academic recommendations tasks like faculty recruitment and promotion, selection of research grants awards, selection of researchers for collaborative research and for review of scientific work. In today’s trans-discipline oriented academic networks, researchers work in collaboration with each other and hence, influence the work and ranking of each other. We understand that, contemplating the impact of an author’s own work along with the influence of his or her collaborators give a complete picture of the standing of an author. Hence, it is not only the author’s own productivity and quality of work that needs to be considered while ranking an authors, the influence of his co-workers needs to be addressed as well. This research ranks authors not only on the basis of their own work but, also quantifies the impact of mutual influence of authors when they work in collaboration, along with exclusivity in their received citations. The work of authors is influenced by the work of their co-authors, more so if coauthors are seniors. Tracking the citations revived by an author is also an important factor to measure the impact of an author. This study proposes Mutual Influence and Citation Exclusivity Author Rank method for finding the mutual influence based positioning of authors along with the analysis of received citations. Thus, we have highlighted the effect of collaboration and the empirical results, when compared with results of baseline methods, show that the proposed method retrieves satisfactory results. These results are applicable in academic recommendation tasks. When it comes to collaboration, if it is with a well-known scientist of a particular field, it can lead a researcher to become a “rising stars”. Rising stars are the researchers who currently have a low profile, but have the ability to become an expert in future. In many nature science domains, while collaboration is inevitably becoming a vital factor for success, cultivation of new promising researchers is becoming a by-product of this process. Young researchers or doctorate candidates can grow up quickly by tutor''s instructions, advanced experimental environment, and fierce competition among themselves. In this research, we study the hypothesis: Does standing on shoulders of a giant can lead you to success? The results show that researchers who are lucky enough to work with a well-known scientist of a field are more productive, collaborative and become influential very soon. The results exhibit a great deal of promise and highly comply with our hypothesis to support and strengthen it. We anticipate that ranking of academic entities within context of topics will grow in importance, as trans-disciplinary collaboration continues to become a norm in scholarly practice. Topic based ranking of authors, papers and journals can serve as a vital tool for identifying authorities of a given topic within a particular domain. Most of the current methods are based on parameters like publication count, citations count and are topic independent, hence ignore the intra-field differences. We introduce a novel method, Domain Specific Indexing, for domain based indexing of authors to measure researcher’s productivity in a given topic. DSI calculates the standing of an author in all topics of his or her interest by considering topic based citations instead of using overall citations like traditional methods. Secondly, we adopted the Similarity measure and Kandal’ Tau for evaluation and comparison of Ad hoc h-index and Domain based Indexing of authors. Results show a great deal of promise for the proposed method. Existing methods that measure topic based scholarly output are limited to homogeneous networks. This study proposes a new informative metric called Topic-based Heterogeneous Rank (TH Rank) which measures the impact of a scholarly entity with respect to a given topic in a heterogeneous scholarly network which contains authors, papers and journals. Results show that TH Rank can effectively identify the most prestigious authors, papers and journals related to a specific topic.
