Purpose -Organizations manipulate themselves as per the legal, political, and social values of the particular country where they operate. As a result, the operations and human resources (HRs) of business corporations are handled as the environmental fabric of that country suggests. The purpose of this paper is to develop a conceptual framework describing the aspects of modern day human resource management (HRM) and HRM from Islamic perspective. Design/methodology/approach -The framework is presented in five broad categories -the message of Islam, Islam in different nations, Islam and work, Islam and managerial dimensions, and Islam and HRM practices. Secondary data have been used to gain knowledge about teachings of Islam and how they can be practiced in order to manage HR effectively. Detailed discussion has been incorporated regarding the Islamic culture and how it can be practiced in the organizations while conducting different HR activities. It has been kept in mind to maintain the originality of the paper though any changes in the message of Quran and Prophet (s.a.w.) cannot be incorporated. If the organizations will be managed from Islamic perspective, managers will not only gain success but will also be at peace knowing that they are doing work for Allah. Findings -This paper concludes Islam is more a "way of life" than a mere religion. In a nutshell, it teaches how a believer has to oblige to the commitment to his faith. Businessmen believe materialistic accumulation is all they are living for. But in reality, it is temporary. Their good deeds and behavior with people irrespective of any discrimination will remain forever. Originality/value -A conceptual model of HRM and Islam is presented that provides an explanation of the linkage between the two.
Curcumin is the primary polyphenol in turmeric’s curcuminoid class. It has a wide range of therapeutic applications, such as anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, antidiabetic, hepatoprotective, antibacterial, and anticancer effects against various cancers, but has poor solubility and low bioavailability. Objective: To improve curcumin’s bioavailability, plasma concentration, and cellular permeability processes. The nanocurcumin approach over curcumin has been proven appropriate for encapsulating or loading curcumin (nanocurcumin) to increase its therapeutic potential. Conclusion: Though incorporating curcumin into nanocurcumin form may be a viable method for overcoming its intrinsic limitations, and there are reasonable concerns regarding its toxicological safety once it enters biological pathways. This review article mainly highlights the therapeutic benefits of nanocurcumin over curcumin.
Background
The World Health Organization has recommended a patient-centered
approach to tuberculosis drug administration. A central element of the
patient-centered strategy is the use of treatment supporters to evaluate and
elevate adherence to the treatment regimen and to address poor adherence
when it occurs. This study was led to determine the part of various
treatment supporters in the successful completion of treatment.
Method
This study was conducted in two locales of Sindh, Hyderabad and
Mirpurkhas. Information gathered included age, gender, regions, sort of
treatment supporters (relatives, community and health facility workers) and
treatment outcomes.
Results
Of the 773 patients incorporated into the study, 86.8% picked
a family supporter, 7.63% selected community worker and
5.56% chose health facility worker as their treatment supporter.
Women and younger patients were more likely to prefer that family members
supervise their treatment. Treatment achievement rates among the patients
regulated by the three kinds of treatment supporters, were not altogether
unique in relation to each other (p=0.23 Chi
square).
Conclusion
The study demonstrates that TB patients ought to be urged to pick the
supporter of their inclination as selection of treatment supporter outside
the health system does not adversely affect TB treatment outcomes in limited
resource settings.
