No. +92 42 99233121-2, Fax: +92 42 99233120 About ETEES 2020 Environmental hazards have emerged as serious global challenge threatening social and economic infrastructures. Anthorpogenic activities and over exploitation of resources, over the last century, have significantly deteriorated the natural ecosystem of the earth leading to severe destruction of the environment. This has resulted in devastating environmental conditions such as desertification of cultivated lands, contamination of groundwater, silting of dams, water logging, salinity and contamination of agricultural soils. The management and maintence of environment is critically essential for human survival as well as all other forms of biodiversity. Therefore, the impending destruction of the ecological infrastructure needs urgent attention. Scienists across the globe have recognised the need and importance of saving the environment and are striving to address environmental issues in order safeguard the planet and resources. Similarly, scientists from Pakistan are also making huge efforts and contributions in combating issues of pollution and climate change in pursuit of providing a safe and healthy environment for our future generatiosn. Increased environmental degradation in Pakistan is resulting in an economic loss of over Rs. 365 billlion annually. Urbanization, industrialization and non-exponential growth in population are further aggravating the issue. Similar to other parts of the world, the current major environmental challenges in Pakistan include climate change, water scarcity, energy shortage, pollution (air, water, soil, plastic) and improper waste management, salinity and water logging, use of syntheric pesticides in agriculture practices, deforestation, excessive loss of biodiversity and many more. Addressing environmental issues at all social and economic levels is the need of the hour in achieving sound and sustainable development along with healthy environment. The College of Earth and Environmental Sciences (CEES) is one the premier institutes in Pakistan covering the disciplines of Environmental Sciences, Applied Hydrology, Tourism and Hospitality Management, Gemomatics, and Occupational Health and Safety Management; offering academic degrees at graduate, post graduate and doctoral level. The CEES team is pleased to announce the 2nd International Conference on “Emerging Trends in Earth and Environmental Sciences (ETEES 2020) to be held on 4th – 6th March, 2020 in Lahore Pakistan.

Hormone replacement therapies, Metabolic and cardiovascular effects. Prof. A.H. Aamir Consultant Endocrinologist, Professor of Medicines, Head of Department of Endocrinology, Hayatabad Medical Complex, Peshawar. Menopause affects every woman and it usually occurs at a median age of 51 years. As large number of women is reaching midlife, it is likely that physicians will come across a stage where HRT may need to be considered for their patient. Menopause has Physical, Psychological, Uro-genital tract, Cardiovascular, Skeletal effects. Estrogens also have effects on carbohydrate homeostasis, fatty liver and atherosclerosis. Postmenopausal women with hyper-androgenemia have elevated risks for NIDDM-Risk and CHD. Most of these effects are reversible with replacement of Estrogens. Women health initiative study (WHI) initially showed an increased cardiovascular risk with HRT increased risk of VTE, stroke, MI Risk appears to be higher in initial years of treatment, followed by decline in risk. Recent re-analyses of WHI results suggested that the association between HRT and cardiovascular risk is influenced by factors such as age and time since menopause • Reduced CV risk in women <10 years post-menopause. • WHI population included older women with other CV risk factors. Risks of stroke should be balanced against benefits, such as decreased risk of hip fracture. Treatment with HRT needs to be individualized in the light of recent International menopausal society recommendations. 50 Pak J Med Sci 2016 www.pjms.com.pk Special Supplement Abstract Book IDEC August 2016 35- Characteristics of Fasting and Ramadan-specific diabetes education trends in people with diabetes (CARE) Prof.

  • Compendium on Environment Statistics of Pakistan - 2004
    Compendium on Environment Statistics of Pakistan - 2004 Federal Bureau of Statistics Government of Pakistan i Foreword As an inescapable concomitant with the traditional route of development, Pakistan has been facing natural resource degradation and pollution problems. The unsavory spectacle of air pollution, water contamination and other macro environmental impacts such as water logging, land degradation and desertification, are on rise. All this, in conjunction with rapid growth in population, has been instrumental to the expanding tentacles of poverty. In order to make an assessment of the environmental problems as a prelude to arrest the pace of degeneration and, provide for sustainable course of economic development, the availability of adequate data is imperative. This publication is an attempt to provide relevant statistics compiled through secondary sources. The 1st Compendium was prepared in 1998 under the Technical Assistance of Asian Development Bank in accordance with, as far as possible, the guidelines of “United Nations Framework for Development of Environment Statistics (FDES)”. This up-dating has been made without any project facilitation. Notwithstanding exclusive reliance on mail inquiry, all possible efforts have been made to collect available data and, quite a few new tables on quality of water, concentration of dust fall in big cities and, state of air quality in urban centers of Punjab, have also been included in the compendium. However, some tables included in the predecessor of this publication could not be up-dated due either to their being single time activity or the source agencies did not have the pertinent data. The same have been listed at appendix-IV to refer compendium-1998 for the requisite historical data.
