Background Foreign invasions and political instability in Afghanistan affected neighboring countries with the large influx of refugees. Discrepancies in quality of life between the host and refugee populations may lead to health inequalities. Investigations in Pakistan on the quality of life of Afghan refugees were scarce despite more than four decades of refugee status. Therefore, this study was initiated to assess the sociocultural determinants that influence health-associated quality of life among Afghan refugees in Pakistan. Methods The Punjab province and Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province refugee populations were selected as the study population for cross-sectional research based on the inclusion criteria of majority refugee representation and female participation. Quantitative research methodology with validated questionnaires was chosen for data collection via multi-stage probability sampling techniques. We collected data from 1,185 study participants and applied univariate and bivariate analyses. Inferential analyses included independent t-test and ANOVA. Results The average scores for the entire sample of Afghan refugees were highest for the social domain (58.78 ± 22.74), followed by the physical domain (53.29 ± 19.46), the general health domain (50.44 ± 20.10), the environmental domain (48.43 ± 16.30), and the psychological domain (46.52 ± 14.78). Age, marital status, family setup, mother language, number of years in the host country, residence type, family monthly income, access to health care, current health status, chronic health illness, substance abuse (smoking), cultural compatibility, linguistic barriers, and social inclusion were non-significant with all the subdomains in the inferential analysis using the independent t-test and analysis of variance. Conclusion The Afghan refugees’ average scores across all health-associated quality-of-life domains were lower than Pakistan's host population and the standard cutoff criteria (< 60 as an indicator of poor quality of life). The development of a national policy to include refugees in health insurance programs seems essential to improve the health-associated quality of life among Afghan refugees in Pakistan.

The guideline discusses the various milestones in typical neurodevelopment and the various checkpoints where atypical development can be picked up. There is also a remarkable influence of epigenetics and parenting on child development and well – being. It is also essential to establish effective communication to facilitate healthy child development. Well being in children is largely impacted by schooling, curricular design, inclusivity, teacher training and awareness of newer developments, parent teacher interaction. A clinician must also be well acquainted with the National Education Program and its impact. A healthy environment, exercise, adequate nutrition, microplastics on children and adolescents, global warming are key factors in the development of children. It is indispensable for clinicians to approach well- being in a scientific way and get a clear understanding of the laws and policies for child welfare and protection.

Cataract is the second highest number causing blindness in Indonesia. The common type of cataract that is often found in NTB Province is Senile Cataract. The definitive treatment for cataracts is surgery, however, several senile cataract sufferers at the NTB Provincial Regional Hospital still choose medical treatment over surgery. This has an impact on the quality of life. This research aims to explore the relationship between medical and operation treatment towards the quality of life of Senile Cataract patient. A systematic random sampling method was carried out on Senile Cataract patients at the Provincial Regional Hospital who had received medical therapy or surgery from January - March 2023. Data collection used a guided interview method by filling in the NEI-VFQ 25 questionnaire which specifically assesses vision. The total sample size for this study was 36 respondents (18 respondents for both surgical and medical treatment). Based on this research, it was found that the majority of subjects who received medical therapy had an adequate quality of life. The majority of subjects who received surgical therapy had a good quality of life. Through this research, it is also known that the best type of therapy to improve the quality of life in Senile Cataract patients is surgical therapy. As a conclusion, the medical therapy and surgery have a relationship with the quality of life of senile cataract patients at the NTB Provincial Regional Hospital, but they have differences in terms of the resulting quality of life.
