شیخ احمد علی شوقؔ

جناب شیخ احمد علی شوقؔ

نہایت افسوس ہے کہ کہنہ ادیب و شاعر شیخ احمد علی صاحب متخلص بہ شوق نے ۲۷؍ اپریل کو گونڈہ میں انتقال کیا، مرحوم ۱۸۸۲؁ء اور ۱۸۹۰؁ء کے درمیان لکھنؤ سے ’’آزاد‘‘ نام کا اخبارنکالتے تھے، جو اس عہد کے معزز و مشہور اخباروں میں تھا اور اس زمانہ کے ادباء کا مظہر خیال تھا اور سرسید کی تحریکات سے کافی ہمدردی رکھتا تھا، کئی چھوٹی چھوٹی مثنویوں کے بھی وہ مصنف تھے، اسیرؔ مرحوم کے وہ شاگرد تھے اور غالباً وہ اس خانوادۂ تربیت کی آخری یادگار باقی تھے، انہیں کے عہد میں اردو کی نئی شاعری کا آغاز ہوا، مرحوم ان قدیم شعراء میں تھے، جنہوں نے اس نئے رنگ کے قبول کرنے میں جھجک نہیں کی۔
ترانۂ شوق کے علاوہ ان کی غالباً آخری مطبوعہ مثنوی عالم خیال کے چار رخ اردو شاعری میں ایک نئی چیز ہے، کاش ان کے احباب و اعزہ ان کے کلام کا مجموعہ شائع کرکے انکی روحانی یادگاروں کو زندہ رکھ سکیں۔ (سید سليمان ندوی، اپریل ۱۹۲۵ء)

Association of Serum Ferritin with Risk of Anemia in Non-Diabetic Adolescents with Family History of Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus

Background: Controversy occurs in the relationship between serum ferritin levels, insulin resistance and risk of developing anemia in adolescents with family history of diabetes. Aims & Objectives: This study was designed to find out the association between serum ferritin levels with risk of developing anemia in non-diabetic adolescents with family history of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Materials & Methods: A descriptive cross-sectional was conducted in a local medical institute of Lahore. Study included 50 non-diabetic, non-obese male / female adolescent with family history of type 2 diabetes mellitus and 50 healthy male/female non-obese adolescents without family history of T2DM considered as controls. Level of serum ferritin and serum insulin was estimated by Enzyme Linked Immunosorbent Assay. Blood glucose was estimated by auto-analyzer. Insulin resistance was calculated by HOMA-IR index and beta cell function was assessed by HOMA- beta index. Results: Levels of fasting blood sugar, insulin resistance were found to be increased with decreased level of serum ferritin and decrease beta cell function in both male as well as female cases as compared to controls. Negative correlation was found between serum ferritin and insulin resistance while a positive correlation was found between serum ferritin and beta cell function. Conclusions: Low level of serum ferritin is associated with reduced beta cell function and increased insulin resistance. This may increase the risk of developing iron deficiency anemia that can affect both immune system as well as increase susceptibility to infections.
