In order to execute smart city programs in small metropolitan regions, there are both possibilities and obstacles that need to be considered. A mixed-methods approach is used in the study, which is based on a case study of ASAYISH Township in Balkh and includes interviews with important stakeholders and a review of pertinent literature. The findings show that although implementing smart city programs in small metropolitan areas presents special obstacles, doing so has the potential to address a number of urban concerns, including those connected to transportation, energy, and public services. The study finishes by emphasizing the necessity for policymakers to give small metropolitan regions top priority when implementing smart city efforts.

This study presents a comprehensive morphometric analysis of the human cadaveric pancreas in the Assamese population. The pancreas is a vital organ involved in digestion and glucose regulation, and its morphological variations can have significant clinical implications. However, limited information exists regarding the specific characteristics of the pancreas in the Assamese population. To address this knowledge gap, we conducted a detailed examination of pancreas specimens obtained from cadavers of individuals from the Assamese population. Morphometric measurements, including length, width, and thickness of the pancreas, as well as the dimensions of its various lobes, were recorded. The data obtained were statistically analyzed to determine any significant differences or similarities compared to other populations. The findings of this study contribute to a better understanding of the morphological variations of the pancreas in the Assamese population and may have implications for clinical practice and surgical interventions in this region.

Grade III furcation involvement poses a significant challenge in periodontal therapy, requiring careful consideration of treatment approaches. This case report presents a regenerative/resective approach for managing grade III furcation involvement in a patient with a questionable clinical scenario. The patient presented with a deep periodontal pocket and radiographic evidence of severe bone loss in the furcation area. A comprehensive periodontal examination was performed, including probing depths, clinical attachment levels, and furcation involvement assessment. The treatment plan involved a combination of regenerative techniques, including guided tissue regeneration and bone grafting, along with resective procedures to eliminate the furcation involvement. The surgical procedure was performed under local anesthesia, and postoperative care instructions were provided. Follow-up visits were scheduled to assess the treatment outcomes. This case report highlights the challenges associated with grade III furcation involvement and emphasizes the importance of a tailored treatment approach based on careful evaluation of the clinical scenario.

Acute appendicitis is a common surgical emergency characterized by inflammation of the appendix. While the condition primarily affects the appendix, it can lead to systemic effects and potential complications. The liver, being an important organ involved in various metabolic processes, may be affected by the inflammatory response associated with acute appendicitis. This study aims to evaluate the impact of acute appendicitis and its complications on liver function test parameters. Liver function tests (LFTs), including alanine aminotransferase (ALT), aspartate aminotransferase (AST), alkaline phosphatase (ALP), total bilirubin (TB), and direct bilirubin (DB), were measured in patients diagnosed with acute appendicitis. The LFT results were compared between patients with uncomplicated appendicitis and those with complications such as perforation or abscess formation. Statistical analysis was performed to identify any significant differences in the liver function parameters between the two groups. The findings of this study provide insights into the potential effects of acute appendicitis and its complications on liver function, which may aid in the early detection and management of hepatic abnormalities in patients with this condition.

This study assesses how stakeholders contribute to the implementation of green construction practices for Tashkent's sustainable urban planning. A literature review, case study analysis, and interviews with important players in the green construction and urban planning sectors were all part of the research process. According to the findings, stakeholder participation is essential for the effective implementation of green construction practices in sustainable urban designs. By contributing ideas and comments to green building plans, supporting their execution, and assuring their long-term viability, stakeholders play a critical role in advancing sustainable development. In order to adopt green construction practices for sustainable urban designs, policymakers must prioritize stakeholder participation, the paper's conclusion emphasizes.

This study compares design approaches and user satisfaction to evaluate the effectiveness of eco-apartment buildings in Uzbekistan. A resident survey and an assessment of the performance of the building are two of the mixed-methods research techniques used in this study. The goal of the study is to determine the best design approaches for Uzbek eco-apartment structures and to comprehend the elements that influence user happiness. The study's conclusions show that design tactics including using sustainable materials, passive design techniques, and effective building systems have a big impact on how well eco-apartment buildings operate. The research also highlights a number of elements that affect user pleasure, such as noise reduction, thermal comfort, and indoor air quality.

This comparative study aimed to evaluate and compare the outcomes of conservative treatment and volar locking plate osteosynthesis in patients with unstable distal radius fractures.

Initiatives to integrate renewable energy into urban planning and daily life require community engagement and participation. The level and kind of community involvement and participation, however, varies between communities and nations. In Tashkent, Uzbekistan, where initiatives to include renewable energy were put into place, this research investigates the lessons that may be learnt by including the community in such activities. Case studies, literature reviews, and comparative data analysis are all included in the study methodology. The findings demonstrate that initiatives fusing sustainable urban planning and renewable energy have raised community involvement in Tashkent. To promote transparency, inclusion, and capacity building, however, more work must be done. The essay makes several proposals for further research, which policymakers should take into account.
