Introduction: Automotive workers are exposed to high level of noise as part of their daily work routine. Determining the predictors of knowledge, attitude and practice of noise induced hearing loss (NIHL) among automotive is important because it may help prevent a serious irreversible disease known as noise induced hearing loss. Methods: A cross se

Communication involves verbal and nonverbal communication. However, many people pay less attention to nonverbal communication as people focus more on verbal communication without realizing that human use nonverbal communication as much as using verbal communication in daily life (Lunenburg, 2010). Interestingly, there are differences in showing exp

The conservation of museum artefact and its preservation against possible damage from air pollution is of increasing concern. Soiling is harmful to the inorganic artefact as it happened when the airborne particulates deposited onto the surface of objects and then the chemical compounds catalyse the oxidation of sulphur dioxide (SO2) to form sulfuri

This study was conducted to determine the social media usage and its influence on the quality time spent with family among the students of International Islamic University of Malaysia (IIUM). The objectives of the study are to determine: (a) the exposure to social media use; (b) the level of perception, attitude, and behavior towards social media u

A high magnitude of greenhouse gases, carbon dioxide (CO2) released into the air has been really alarming and contributing to climate disasters of global warming.Many studies reported that calcium oxide (CaO) is stoichiometrically and reversibly react with CO2 used for CO2 removal are not efficient for practical purpose due to sintering which suffe

The main agenda of feminism movements is to fight for gender equality between women and men. This agenda is advocated both by the Western as well as by some Muslim feminists.

Ventricular wall rupture possesses a high mortality rate in patients with acute myocardial infarction. We presented a case of a ninety-year-old gentleman who presented with acute inferolateral myocardial infarction in cardiogenic shock and right ventricular free wall rupture. He was treated conservatively and survived.Case Report Conservative Treat

Carbon capture and storage (CCS) is one of the method in reducing carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions into the atmosphere. CO2 capturing using calcium oxide (CaO) solid sorbents has been considered as an advanced concept for CO2 capture and recovery. However, the adsorption capacity of CaO decreases during repeated adsorption/desorption cycles. The stab

SUMMARY Pseudotumour of the lung is a rare chest x-ray finding among patients who present with fluid overload. It is caused by loculated pleural effusion in the lung fissures. Unfortunately, the occurrence of pseudotumour can be misleading and sometimes can lead to unnecessary investigation and emotional stress to the patient. We present here a cas
