Blindness, paralysis, kidney failure, diabetes is the biggest cause of heart attack,

-

: Medical experts have said that diabetes is increasing rapidly in Pakistan and at present the number of diabetes patients in the country has exceeded 33 million.

There are misconceptions and superstitions among people about diabetes, which is considered a silent killer. Diabetes is the main cause of blindness, paralysis, kidney failure and heart attack. The complications of this disease can be avoided by controlling weight and waist, eating moderately and exercising and walking daily.


If someone gets diabetes despite efforts, then he should be taken care of as a life partner. Patients should not ignore the doctor's instructions and do not try to treat themselves at home. There is a need to create a network by creating a volunteer force at the government level as well as at the private level regarding this disease.

These views were expressed by the health experts at an awareness seminar organized by Prof. Dr. M. Zaman Sheikh, Sir Syed College of Medical Sciences Karachi and Pakistan Society of Internal Medicine in collaboration with Express Media Group on World Diabetes Day at a local hotel in Lahore.


Pharmaceutical companies HIGH-Q, Sanofi, AGP Pharma, Getz Pharma, Servier, Macter, Barret Hodgson, Hilton Pharma and Highnoon collaborated for the seminar.

Ajmal Sattar Malik, Editor, Express Forum welcomed the distinguished guests and attendees to the seminar and said that diabetes is a very dangerous disease, which has more than 33 million patients in the country, so emergency measures need to be taken to control this disease. He thanked the attendees for their arrival.


Assistant Professor of Medicine Rashid Latif Medical College and Joint Secretary Pakistan Society of Internal Medicine Dr. Wafa Qaiser presided over the seminar.

Prof. Dr. Zaman Sheikh, Chairman, Diabetes Control Program Pakistan, Pakistan Society of Internal Medicine, Head of The Department of Medicine, Sir Syed Medical College Karachi thanked The Express Media Group and the pharmaceutical companies that supported in organizing this seminar. If one pill is given to patients in one group, it benefits and if the same pill is given to the other group of patients, it can be harmed, so do not ignore the doctor's instructions at all.


Prof. Dr. Javed Akram, former Vice Chancellor, University of Health Sciences said that 40 percent of the patients do not know of suffering from diabetes until their kidneys fail or they have paralysis. Diabetes is the leading cause of blindness, stroke, heart attack. Everyone should not let himself suffer from diabetes and if he has diabetes, take care of him like a life partner so that he can see the color of life.


Endocrinologist Professor Gulshad Hasan said that diabetes complications can be controlled by reducing blood pressure, smoking and cholesterol. Professor Dr. Soumya Sattar, head of the department of medicine at King Edward Medical University, said that this disease is called Umm-ul-Muhriz, women complain of fatigue, fatigue, etc. but it is not taken seriously. If there is weight loss and fatigue, then a diabetes test should be done.


Professor Dr Tariq Waseem, head of the department of medicine at Akhtar Saeed Medical College, said that the first step to control this disease is not to allow the disease to happen and if it does, it should not be allowed to be complicated as a second step so that its losses can be minimized.

Medical Director Diabetes Institute of Pakistan Dr Muhammad Imtiaz Hasan said that insulin is the last treatment for diabetes, which is absolutely wrong, while the main thing is that insulin is the better treatment. If the doctor asks to apply insulin, accept it so that later complications can be avoided.

Chief Executive Officer and Consultant Nutritionist Akram Medical Complex Dr. Shehla Akram said that people avoid going to the nutritionist and talk about starting olive oil by leaving bread and rice, but every meal has to make sugar. We should adopt the habit of eating something five times instead of 3, but we should eat less. In addition to breakfast, lunch and dinner, something must be eaten at 11 am and 5 pm.

Dr Sajid Obaidullah, former professor of medicine at King Edward Medical University, said that fatty liver is not being taken seriously. If the patient with diabetes has liver fat, then he needs to contact the doctor and take it seriously.

 A new governmental order will require virtual private networks to store user data for a minimum of five years. This is new national directive of the country's IT emergency response team, called. Photo by Kevin Paster: Pexel This is a policy that is probably going to make life harder for VPN businesses and VPN users. CERT-in announced on Thursday that the VPN companies of the country will have to keep the names of the clients, the physical and IP addresses validated, the habits of use and other forms of personal information. If the customer cancels their subscription or deletes their account, their information will always be stored in the company's servers according to the directive. Those who fail to do so could face up to one year in prison under the applicable law cited in the new directive. The directive does not stop at VPN providers.Data centres and cloud-based providers are listed in the same provision. India has a long tradition of putting the heavy hand to online activ

Brutal crackdown by the government could not deter people from coming out of their homes and heading towards Islamabad

-
 The government’s crackdown on PTI workers and supporters made it clear that they have decided to stop PTI’s Independence March at all cost. News reports say more than 1,000 PTO workers and activists have been arrested.  The government has called in the Rangers to maintain law and order in Islamabad and other major cities of the country, including Karachi. All entrances and exits to and from Islamabad were shut down, as was traffic between Lahore and the Twin Cities. The government has also instructed transport companies not to offer buses, cars, or vans to PTI workers. The manner in which Shahbaz and its allies are using state apparatus to prevent people from participating in the march is not acceptable.  The #WeAreComingKaptaan hashtag tells us that brutal crackdown by the government could not deter people from coming out of their homes and heading towards Islamabad.  Look what this government is doing spreading broken glasses on the road.

Everything you need to know about DDR5

 DDR4 memory is found on most personal computers. The next generation memory standard is coming out. Computers users expect increased performance and optimal power consumption  in the new chips.  If we focus on raw data, the main changes include a reduction in the voltage from 1.2V to 1.1V, and the 8n prefetch buffer will be replaced by 16n prefetch buffers, i.e. 16 bits per hour will migrate from memory cells to the IO buffer, while performance will be scaled from 3.2 Gbps to 6.4 Gbps per I/O connection. We can expect increased performance as some memory makers  have managed to enhance JEDEC specifications for DDR4.  The design of the DDR5 memory modules is based on 288 needles. The application of DDR5 will requires a new platform.  The DIMM has been divided into two channels. A memory module offers two 32-bit channels, of which there will be twice 40 bits with ECC. Between 8 bytes to 16 bytes the minimum stroke length varies. Sense a module uses two channels, it means it can double t
