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 …

Font-Based Text Steganography for Covert Communication in Devanagari Script: A Review (2020–2026)
Abstract: Steganography hides the fact that a communication exists rather than merely safeguarding its content. Text is the most challenging of all steganographic media because it contains the least redundancy and is the most sensitive to changes. Devanagari script, with its conjunct consonants, ligatures, matras, and non-linear glyph construction, makes these difficulties even harder, rendering rendering-dependent and OCR- based steganographic methods largely ineffective. This paper presents a systematic review of text …

Chitosan-Based Polymer Coatings for Antimicrobial Catheter Surfaces
Abstract: Catheter-associated infections (CAIs) remain a major clinical challenge. Microbial adhesion and subsequent biofilm formation on catheter surfaces significantly reduce the effectiveness of antimicrobial therapy, resulting in prolonged hospitalization, increased healthcare costs, and higher patient morbidity. Consequently, the development of antimicrobial polymer coatings has emerged as an effective strategy for minimizing catheter-associated infections while improving device performance. Among the various biomaterials investigated, chitosan has attracted considerable attention owing to its intrinsic …
