The Influence of Socioemotional well-Being on Mental Health Among University Students in Klang Valley, Malaysia New
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

This study examines the influence of socioemotional well-being (SEWB) on mental health among university students in the Klang Valley, Malaysia. SEWB, encompassing emotional regulation, social support, self-esteem, and resilience, is critical in buffering mental health challenges. Utilizing a quantitative ex-post facto design, this study evaluates S

Investigation of Annealing Treatment on Surface of Porous Niti Alloy New
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Porous Nickel-Titanium (NiTi) alloy has been developed especially in the biomedical sector due to its shape memory ability and its mechanical properties which is comparable to human bones. However, NiTi alloy carries the risk of Nickel (Ni) ions leaching when implanted in the human body making it less favourable for biomedical use for long term. Th

Diagnostic Challenges of Pityriasis Lichenoides Et Varioliformis Acuta (Pleva) New
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Pityriasis Lichenoides et Varioliformis Acuta (PLEVA) is an uncommon, inflammatory skin illness typified by erythematous papules that can mimic various dermatological and systemic conditions, making diagnosis difficult. We describe a case of a young adult who presented with generalized erythematous macules and crusted patches across the trunk that

Navigating Iron Deficiency Anaemia in pre-Menopausal Women: Beyond Nutritional and Menstrual Paradigms New
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Introduction: Iron deficiency anaemia (IDA) is a common condition that affects a significant number of premenopausal women globally. There are various factors that can contribute to this condition, such as menstruation, pregnancy, insufficient iron intake, malabsorption, intravascular haemolysis, and gastrointestinal blood loss. Premenopausal women

Functional Metagenomics Approach for Discovery of Novel cold-Active Protease from the Antarctic Region New
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

The structural complexity of bacterial life makes most of it impossible to culture. Functional metagenomics approaches overcome the limitations of a culture-based approach in exploring and assessing the genetic materials of uncultured microbes. The objective of this study was to identify clones with cold-active proteases through functional metageno

Microbial Contamination and Biofilm Formation in Ophthalmic Solutions and Ophthalmic Instruments at Optometry Practice New
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Background: Maintaining sterility and preventing microbial contamination are critical in optometry, where multiple surfaces, devices, and solutions contact the patient's eyes, posing an infection risk. Contamination, especially from biofilm-forming pathogens, can occur from airborne droplets, surface contact, and improper disinfection. This stu

Profanity on Malaysian Social Media: Implications on Brand Perception and Organisational Communication New
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

The increasing prevalence of profanity on social media platforms raises concerns about its impact on communication and public perception. While studies on online incivility are growing, there is limited research on the use of harsh language on Twitter among Malaysians. Consequently, little is known about how profanity in the commentary sections of

Plasmonic Wave Validation via Finite Element Modeling and opto-Plasmonic System for Biosensor New
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Plasmonics are light and free electrons interaction in metal nanostructures. Free electrons are oscillated and known as plasmon when light hits the metal. Matched plasmon/ light at respective frequency/ momentum generates a resonance at maximum excitation of plasmonic energy. A resonance shift indicates significant molecular binding for biological

Comparing Treatment Effectiveness and Costs for Bronchospasm in Hospitalized Children: Salbutamol Inhaler with Spacer Vs. Nebulizer – a Retrospective Study New
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Introduction: The study, conducted at Sultan Ahmad Shah Medical Centre, aimed to compare outcomes in bronchospasm-treated children using metered-dose inhalers (MDIs) with spacers versus nebulizers. The primary focus was on assessing the length of stay (LOS) and treatment costs associated with each modality. The hypothesis anticipated no significant

Musculoskeletal Disorders Among Dental Practitioners in Kulliyyah of Dentistry, IIUM Kuantan New
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Introduction: It is common for dental practitioners to encounter stress, repetitive movements, and prolonged static postures that lead to musculoskeletal disorders (MSD). As a multifactorial disorder, MSD results in discomfort or pain in the affected body area. The MSD can adversely affect one’s job performance if the symptoms are left untreated.
