The current study examined the representation of sustainability aspects in the English textbook for Grade XII by the Punjab Curriculum and Textbook Board, Lahore. Using Tavanti's (2010) Sustainability Framework, a qualitative content analysis facilitated by NVivo 12 software was used. According to the findings, a limited and indirect depiction of sustainability dimensions was explored. The environmental dimension needs to be addressed; the social aspect receives relatively more attention. The economic dimension is also discussed through a lesson; however, institutional, cultural, and value dimensions need to be added to the content. Generally, the analysis needs a more explicit and thorough incorporation of sustainability beliefs in the textbook. The findings emphasize the requirement for a more deliberate and complete incorporation of sustainability concepts through different dimensions, as per the global agenda regarding sustainable development.

The study was carried out between March 2023 and January 2024 from four different hospitals from Quetta. The data collected from 1043 patients with acute renal failure disorders were diagnosed for the comprehensive examination of patient's medical records, laboratory test results, and diagnostic reports. Every patient also participates in a research-based questionnaire interview to obtain thorough data on symptoms, medical history, and possible risk factors. Samples from the patients were subjected to various biochemical tests, including complete blood count (CBC), urinalysis, serum urea/creatinine, and electrolyte analysis. The patient counts range from 83 to 380, and the age groups cover 81-100 years to 1-20 years. The cohort from 1 to 20 has the second highest incidence rate (29.72%), with the cohort from 21 to 40 having the highest incidence rate (36.43%). This suggests that there is a notable pattern in the disease's prevalence among different age groups. The majority of the 21–40 year cohort (>60%) is female, which may indicate particular gender-related health issues during this time. Male representation, on the other hand, is consistently higher in different age groups (between 50 and 61%) and may correspond with patterns of age-related male-biased morbidity. As a result, this study clarifies the epidemiological context of acute renal failure disorders in patients, highlighting the growing incidence rates and major healthcare burden associated with these conditions.
