Soft Computing Approach for Predicting Opec Countries’ Oil Consumption
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Human activities in todays modern world would not be possible without energy. The energy consumed by the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC) has increased significantly. In this paper, a soft computing method is proposed for predicting oil consumption in OPEC countries. The significant, positive relationship among the oil consu

two-Dimensional and three-Dimensional Postsurgical Temporomandibular Joint Condylar Remodelling Following Vertical Subsigmoid Osteotomy Setback Surgery
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Background: Vertical subsigmoid osteotomy (VSSO) for ramus setback has been suggested to exert less stress onto the condylar head causing more positive bone remodelling changes in the postoperative phase. However, it is unclear if the setback amount has any effect on the remodelling pattern. Objectives: This study aims to compare the postsurgical q

The Impact of Micro Credit on Financial Condition as Well as socio-Economic Variables of Women Entrepreneurs in Bangladesh
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Bangladesh is an innovator and home of abstracting micro credit program. It has taken few programs to alleviate poverty and enhance the quality of life among poor people. The main purpose of this research is to examine the impact of micro credit on financial condition as well as the socio-economic factors of women entrepreneurs in Bangladesh. Quant

Solving Linear and non-Linear Stiff System of Ordinary Differential Equations by Multi Stage Homotopy Perturbation Method
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

In this paper, linear and non-linear stiff systems of ordinary differential equations are solved by the multi-stage homotopy perturbation method (MHPM). The MHPM is a technique adapted from the standard homotopy perturbation method (HPM) where standard HPM is converted into a hybrid numeric-analytic method called multistage homotopy perturbation me

Recent Update on Nanoemulgel as Topical Drug Delivery System
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Being an emerging transdermal delivery tool, nanoemulgel, has proved to show surprising upshots for the lipophilic drugs over other formulations. This lipophilic nature of majority of the newer drugs developed in this modern era resulting in poor oral bioavailability, erratic absorption, and pharmacokinetic variations. Therefore, this novel transde

Developments in Production of Silica Based Thermoluminescence Dosimeter
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

This work addresses purpose-made thermoluminescence dosimeters (TLD) based on doped silica fibres and sol–gel nanoparticles, produced via Modified Chemical Vapour Deposition (MCVD) and wet chemistry techniques respectively. These seek to improve upon the versatility offered by conventional phosphor-based TLD forms such as that of doped LiF. Fabri

A meta-Synthesis on Nursing Students’ Perception of problem-Based Learning
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Problem based learning is an option of the teaching methods. PBL has been introduce in the nursing education in the late sixties. Later, PBL has been adopted by many nursing schools to produce nursing graduates who can explore options, are articulate and have the capacity for developing appropriate strategies based on reflective decision making and

Pharmacokinetic and Pharmacodynamic Features of Nanoemulsion Following Oral, Intravenous, Topical and Nasal Route
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Abstract: Background: Most of the active pharmaceutical ingredients discovered recently in pharmaceutical field exhibits poor aqueous solubility that pose major problem in their oral administration. The oral administration of these drugs gets further complicated due to their short bioavailability, inconsistent absorption and inter/intra subject var

Factors Affecting Participation Decision and Amount of Physical Activity Among Urban Dwellers in Malaysia
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Objectives: The rapid rise in the prevalence of physical inactivity-related diseases has become a serious public health issue worldwide. The objective of the present study is to examine the factors affecting participation in physical activity among urban dwellers in Malaysia. Study design: This cross-sectional study measures physical activity using

Adequacy of the Law in Protecting the Rights of Adopted Children in Malaysia
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Adoption is one of the means to protect children who have been deprived of parental care. The United Nation Convention on Rights of Child guaranteed such protection and as in other action con- cerning children, the principle of the best interest of the child must be primarily considered by the State parties when dealing with the process of adoption
