Background: Student’s learning style preference is an important consideration for effective and high quality teaching and learning process. Different teaching approaches may not suit students’ preferences, hence, producing a gap between learning and delivery instructions. The aim of this study was to assess the learning style preferences among

Objectives: A cross-sectional study was conducted to investigate the level of knowledge, attitudes, and risk perceptions regarding human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) and acquired immunity deficiency syndrome (AIDS) among final year health sciences students in the International Islamic University Malaysia (IIUM), Kuantan, Malaysia. Methods: Students

Objective: This study aimed to assess the knowledge, awareness, and perception of contraception among senior pharmacy students of a public sector university in Malaysia. Methods: A cross‑sectional, questionnaire‑based study was conducted among senior pharmacy students. The pretested questionnaire was used to collect data from the participants o

The Malaysian official Islamic authorities have issued a ‘‘fatwa’’ (Islamic ruling) regarding smoking practice which prohibits Muslims from smoking because of its potential harm to health. Since the prevalence of smoking among Malaysian students is high, this study was designed to explore the perceptions and opinions of Malaysian Muslim st

Future applications of communication systems require higher data rates and more mobility. Orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) can achieve these goals due to it is ability to reach high bit rates over fading channels as well as its efficient utilization of the bandwidth. However, the transmitted signal of OFDM suffers from high peak to

Palm kernel cake (PKC) was utilized as the main media for cellulase enzyme production using solid-state bioconversion (SSB). The fermentation was carried out for 7 days using Trichoderma reesei with 0.05% Tween-80 and moisture content of 62.0% (w/w). The enzyme was extracted with citrate buffer (pH 4.8) at 150 rpm agitation speed. The enzyme extrac

Background: Tobacco smoking is a serious health problem worldwide. Malaysia as many of south Asian countries faces the challenge of rising tobacco consumption. Despite the apparent spread of Shisha smoking phenomenon among Malaysian population, little is known about the safety concerns and determinants of Shisha smokers in this community. Objective

The existence of multidimensional lattice compactons in the discrete nonlinear Schr¨odinger equation in the presence of fast periodic time modulations of the nonlinearity is demonstrated. By averaging over the period of the fast modulations, an effective averaged dynamical equation arises with coupling constants involving Bessel functions of the f
