A Review of Psychoendocrine Morbidity: Co-occurring Diabetes Type-II (DIAII), Bipolar II Disorder (BPII), and Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD)
Abstract: The acute phase of (Bipolar II Disorder) BPII encompasses a psychosis of dramatic mood changes and elevated energy levels often accompanied by co-occurring psychiatric and systemic disorders. The co-occurring disorders (i.e., BPII, DIAII, and OCD) are accentuated, most often by the metabolic imbalances of (Diabetes Type-II) DIAII and sometimes by the psychiatric condition of (Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder) OCD. Increased morbidity and mortality of the co-occurring disorders dominates the chronic course of …

Role of Impaired Digestion in Disease Pathogenesis: According to Unani System of Medicine
Abstract: The relationship between digestion and disease occupies a central position in Greco-Arab (Unani) medicine, as emphasized by classical physicians such as Ibn Sina and Al-Razi. In Unani medicine, digestion (Haḍm) is not confined to the gastrointestinal tract alone but represents a comprehensive physiological and metabolic process involving four sequential stages: gastric digestion (Haḍm-e-Mi‘dī), hepatic digestion (Haḍm-e-Kabidī), vascular digestion (Haḍm-e-‘Urūqī), and tissue digestion (Haḍm-e-‘Uḍwī). These stages are governed by Quwwat-e-Hāḍima (digestive …

Initial Diversion in Hirschsprung’s Disease: Loop versus End Colostomy. Does it Make a Difference?
Abstract: Background: Staged surgery for Hirschsprung’s disease involving initial stoma formation with biopsies to find the level of aganglionosis and subsequent pull-through procedure like Duhamel’s Pull through is the most recommended management protocol at several institutions. The nature of stoma, whether loop or end, often determines the patient’s morbidity in this approach and would also have a say in the duration and ease at the time of definitive pull-through procedure. Aims …
