An Empirical Estimation of Underground Thermal Performance for Malaysian Climate
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

In this study, the soil temperature profile was computed based on the harmonic heat transfer equations at various depths. The meteorological data ranging from January, 1st 2016 to December, 31st 2016 measured by local weather stations were employed. The findings indicted that as the soil depth increases, the temperature changes are negligible and t

On Surjective Second Order non-Linear Markov Operators and Associated Nonlinear Integral Equations
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

It was known that orthogonality preserving property and surjectivity of nonlinear Markov operators, acting on finite dimensional simpleces, are equivalent. It turns out that these notions are no longer equivalent when such kind of operators are considered over on infinite dimensional spaces. In the present paper, we find necessary and sufficient co

time-Series Forecasting Analysis on Dental Treatment Need of first-Visit Patients at IIUM Dental Outpatient Clinic (Periodontal and Conservative Department) for the Year 2017 and 2018

Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Religion affects an individual’s perception and the way in which people behave. The Malays in Malaysia observe religious rites and rituals and portray Islamic values in their behavior. Based upon a sample survey, this study examines respondents’ belief in the deity, the frequency and intensity of their involvement in religious rites and rituals

Depression Following Major Life Transitions in Women: a Review and Theory
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Depression can occur due to common major life transitions, such as giving birth, menopause, retirement, empty-nest transition, and midlife crisis. Although some of these transitions are perceived as positive (e.g., giving birth), they may still lead to depression. We conducted a systematic literature review of the factors underlying the occurrence

A Numerical Solution for Nonlinear Heat Transfer of Fin Problems Using the Haar Wavelet Quasilinearization Method
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

The aim of this paper is to study the new application of Haar wavelet quasilinearization method (HWQM) to solve one-dimensional nonlinear heat transfer of fin problems. Three different types of nonlinear problems are numerically treated and the HWQM solutions are compared with those of the other method. The effects of temperature distribution of a

single-Staged Transoral intra-Lesional Excision of Aneurysmal Bone Cyst of Axis (C2) Vertebra and Temporary Stabilization of Upper Cervical Spine in an Adolescent: a Case Report
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Aneurysmal bone cyst (ABC) infrequently occurs within the upper cervical vertebrae. Various therapeutic options have been reported in the literature. We would like to share our experience in managing a case of a 16-year-old girl diagnosed with ABC at the body of axis (C2) vertebra. Serious attention had to be given on the stability of the cervical

The Usage of Highly Absorbent Antimicrobial Polyurethane Foam in Wound Management of Pyomyositis
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Intra-muscular abscess is a suppurative infection involving the skeletal muscle. Operative management remains the mainstay together with timely administration of systemic antibiotics. Timely usage of antimicrobial dressings assists the wound bed preparation for secondary closure.32 Wounds Asia 2019 | Vol 2 Issue 2 | ©Wounds International 2019 | ww

Transforaminal Endoscopic Discectomy: a Targeted Spinal Surgery
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Introduction Open discectomy has been the gold standard of care for cases of prolapsed intervertebral disc. Tissue dissection is unavoidable in order to access the pathologic disc material. After skin incision, subcutaneous fat tissue, paraspinal muscles, ligamentum flavum, epidural fat, dura and nerve roots has to be encountered before reaching th

A Snapshot of the Global Policies and Practices of Medicine Use Reviews by Community Pharmacist in the Management of Chronic Diseases: a Narrative Review
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

INTRODUCTION Significant differences exist in how community pharmacist (CP) is being utilized around the globe. OBJECTIVE To explore various policies and practices of medicine use review (MUR) by CP in chronic diseases and, its impact and way forward for low- and middle- income countries (L&MIC) METHOD Narrative review, using key words, such as
