صوتیات کا اجمالی جائزہ
زبان اللہ تعالیٰ کی ایک عظیم نعمت ہے۔ یہ اظہار کا ذریعہ ہے۔ صوتیات وہ علم ہے جو ہمیں زبان کی آوازوں اور ان کی جان کاری میں نہ صرف مدد فراہم کرتا ہے، بل کہ اس کے لیے اصول بھی مرتب کرتا ہے۔ صوتیات میں زبان کی آوازوں کےپیداہونے کے طریقے اور ان کی صحیح درجہ بندی کا مطالعہ کیاجاتا ہے۔ صوتیات لسانیات کی اہم شاخ ہے۔ بعض علمائے لسانیات کے بقول صوتیات کے بغیر لسانیات نا کافی ہے۔ صوتیات کا کام زبان کی آوازوں کو دریافت کرنا، اس کو صحیح رسم الخط فراہم کرنا، جن زبانوں کے پاس رسم الخط نہیں ہے انہیں رسم الخط فراہم کرنا اور الفاظ کی درست ادائیگی میں معاونت ہے۔ ہر زبان میں عہد کے ساتھ ساتھ تبدیلیاں رونماہوتی رہتی ہیں۔کچھ الفاظ متروک ہوتےہیں، کچھ کا املا بدل جاتا ہے اور کچھ قواعد واصول بھی بدلتے رہتےہیں۔ صوتیات کسی بھی زبان کا منظم علامتی اور تصوراتی نظام ہوتا ہے۔ انسانی ذہن بے شمار آوازیں پیدا کرنے کی خُداداد صلاحیت رکھتا ہے۔ انسانی منہ سے اَن گنت آوازیں نکلتی ہیں لیکن صوتیات میں صرف بامعنی آوازوں کا مطالعہ کیا جاتا ہے۔ زمان ومکان کے حالات کے مطابق زبان میں پایا جانے والا تغیر وتبدل اس کی صوتی ہیئت میں بھی تبدیلیاں لاتا ہے۔
صوتیات کی تعریف
بقول پروفیسر اقتدار حسین:
’’زبان کی آوازوں کے سائینٹی فک یامنظم طور سے مطالعے کو صوتیات کہتے ہیں۔‘‘۲۹؎
جیسا کہ لسانیات کے باب میں بتایا گیا ہے کہ یہ ایک سائنس ہے، اسی طرح صوتیات بھی ایک سائنس ہے۔ ڈاکٹر اقتدار حسین نے اسے زبان کے سائنیٹی فک مطالعے سے تعبیر کیا ہے۔ لہٰذا ہم کہہ سکتے ہیں کہ ماہر صوتیات ایسا سائنس دان ہوتا ہے جو زبان کی تمام آوازوں کو سمجھنے، ان میں فرق کرنے اور ان کا...
The research reveals significant insights cited by Ibn Al ‘Irāqī in his book "Toḥfah Al Taḥṣīl" on the illusions of Al-‘Alā'ī in his book "Jāmi Al Taḥṣīl". It highlights the scientific value of those illusions that Ibn Al-‘Irāqī pointed out. Several of them are related to narrators of hadith and their issues of hearing from their sheikhs. Many of those illusions are related to the chain narrators (isnad), the main text of the report (matn), or their position in the books of sunnah. There are no previous studies on this subject. I put the sequential insights I revel under headlines through which one can realize the illusions that Al-Ala'i fell in. I conclude with the perceptions that both Ibn Al-‘Iraqī and Al-‘Alā’ī have shared. I don’t mention my opinion after each insight for Ibn Al-‘Iraqī; however, my silence is an approval to what he said. When I went against him or it was important to mention any comment or information, I openly said my opinion and explained the reasons for my opposition. Some of the research findings are: Al-Ala'i ignores mentioning the narrator's gap (irsal), although Al-Mizzī mentions it in his book "Tahdhīb", or the scholars mention it before both of them. He describes the narrator having a gap (irsāl) and attributes it to Al-Mizzī. He added notes like "he didn't encounter him" and formulated expressions that weren’t mentioned by neither Al Dhahabī nor Al-Mizzī. He references a Ḥadīth to a book that it is not included in.
Background: As the prevalence of cardiovascular diseases in Sub-Saharan Africa rises, coronary artery disease, with its acute presentations, is being increasingly recognized in Kenyans and treated at tertiary level hospitals. It is just over a decade since the introduction and wide availability of modern cardiology services, including interventional cardiology in Kenya.
Following an acute coronary syndrome (ACS), patients remain at high risk of death and other adverse events such as heart failure, recurrent myocardial infarction, stroke, and bleeding. Local and regional data on long-term outcomes following ACS are lacking. These data are important to clinicians for prognostication and to health care planners for resources allocation.
Objectives: The objectives of this study were to determine the in-hospital and long-term outcomes of patients following the treatment of Acute Coronary Syndromes. Specific objectives included determining in-hospital, 30-day and one-year mortality of ACS patients, and the rates of several non-fatal adverse outcomes including reinfarction, heart failure and cardiogenic shock, revascularization, stroke, major bleeding and re-hospitalization due to specific major adverse events.
Methods: The study was a retrospective chart review of ACS admissions during a two year period (2012-2013) for all acute coronary syndrome admissions. Data on patient characteristics, treatment, and inpatient and short-term outcomes were obtained from the patients’ medical records. Telephone interviews were conducted to determine long-term results.
Results: A total of 230 patients were included in the analysis. Of these, 101 had a diagnosis of STEMI, 93 suffered an NSTEMI, and 36 had UA. Males accounted for 81.7% of the patients, and the mean age was 60.5 years. Delayed presentation was common with more than 35% of patients taking longer than 24 hours to arrive. Coronary angiography was performed in 85.2% of the patients. The in-hospital mortality was 7.8% (14.9% for STEMI and 2.3% for NSTE-ACS), the mortality at 30 days and one year was 7.8% and 13.9% respectively. The most common in-hospital non-fatal adverse outcome was heart failure, occurring in 40.4% of STEMI and 16.3% of NSTE-ACS. Readmission rate due to recurrent MI, stroke or bleeding at one year was 6.6%.
Conclusion: In our cohort, in-hospital, 30 day and one year mortality following acute coronary syndromes remains high, particularly for STEMI. Delayed presentation to hospital following the onset of symptoms appears to be an important contributing factor.
