From Humours to Metabolism: An Integrative Review of Obesity Management in Unani Medicine
Abstract: Unani Medicine, a traditional complementary and alternative medicine (CAM) system, adopts a holistic, temperament-based approach to disease prevention and management. In classical Unani literature, obesity is described as Simān-e-Mufriṭ, a pathological condition arising from humoral imbalance, particularly the predominance of phlegm (Balgham) and derangement of temperament (Su’-e-Mizāj), most commonly of a cold and moist nature. This condition is attributed to a sedentary lifestyle, weakened digestive and metabolic faculties, and excessive …

Viscoelastic Behavior, Interfacial Mechanics, and Reliability of Polymer Interlayers in Laminated Glass Composites: A Comprehensive Review
Abstract: The laminated glass systems are regarded as hybrid polymer–glass composites where the viscoelastic behavior of polymer interlayers mostly controls mechanical response. These interlayers (polyvinyl butyral (PVB), ionoplast, ethylene-vinyl acetate (EVA), etc.) have time-, temperature- and rate-dependent properties which significantly affect shear transfer, energy dissipation, and fracture resistance. But the baseline polymer-relevant processes at the molecular and interfacial level are to a large extent unknown [1]. This review provides a materials-focused …

pH-Triggered In-Situ Nasal Gel Systems for Migraine Therapy: A Review
Abstract: Intranasal drug delivery has gained considerable attention as a non-invasive route for delivering drugs to both systemic circulation and the central nervous system, particularly for the treatment of migraine. Traditional nasal formulations such as sprays and drops often show poor therapeutic performance due to rapid mucociliary clearance and limited retention within the nasal cavity. To overcome these challenges, in-situ gel systems have been designed, which transform from a liquid to …

Spatiotemporal Analysis of Mean-Field Coupled Lorenz Oscillators for Applications in Electronic Network Design and Chaotic Synchronization
Abstract: This study investigates the spatiotemporal behavior of a network of 100 coupled Lorenz oscillators interacting through mean-field coupling with coupling strength κ = 0.1 and explores its relevance to electronic system design and nonlinear network architectures. While each oscillator follows classical Lorenz dynamics, the coupling mechanism enables collective behavior that resembles synchronization phenomena observed in distributed electronic and communication systems. Numerical simulations reveal rich dynamical characteristics including partial synchronization, emergent …

Muscle vs. Heart: A Comprehensive Review of Anabolic Steroid-Induced Cardiovascular Risks
Abstract: Anabolic-androgenic steroids (AAS) are widely used by athletes and bodybuilders to enhance muscle mass and performance. However, their misuse is associated with serious and often underrecognized cardiovascular risks. Despite their popularity, particularly among young adults, the long-term consequences of AAS abuse on cardiovascular health remain insufficiently explored in the literature. This review aims to: 1. Analyze the cardiovascular implications of AAS use. 2. Elucidate the molecular and physiological mechanisms contributing …

A Conceptual Framework for AI-Integrated Metabolomics in Predictive Health Systems for Resource-Constrained Environments
Abstract: The increasing prevalence of non-communicable diseases (NCDs) continues to place a significant strain on healthcare systems, particularly in low- and middle-income regions where access to early diagnostic infrastructure is limited. Conventional healthcare approaches remain largely reactive, often detecting diseases at advanced stages when treatment effectiveness is reduced. This challenge underscores the need for predictive, cost-effective, and data-driven healthcare solutions. This study presents a conceptual framework that integrates metabolomics with artificial …

Unani Concepts of Brain Pathology: Humoral Mechanisms in Māddī Neurological Disorders
Abstract: Background The Unani System of Medicine (USM) considers the brain (Dimāgh) as the principal organ of Quwā Nafsāniyya (psychic faculties), responsible for sensation, cognition, memory, movement, and emotional regulation. According to Unani principles, health is maintained through equilibrium of Mizāj (temperament) and Akhlāṭ (humours), whereas disease develops when this balance is disturbed. Among neurological disorders, Sū’-i-Mizāj Māddī Dimāgh refers to pathological conditions of the brain associated with the accumulation of …

A Critical Review of the Limitations of the Arithmetic Mean and the Robustness of the Median in Statistical Analysis
Abstract: Arithmetic mean is an extremely popular measure of central tendency used in statistical analyses, primarily because it is so easy to calculate and has many positive mathematical characteristics. However, when there are outliers, skewed distributions or heterogeneous spread of data, the reliability of the arithmetic mean diminishes greatly. This paper includes a critical review of the limitations of the arithmetic mean and an assessment of the robustness of the median …

Idempotent Semiring Path Algebras and Fuzzy Dominance Automata for Multi-State Communication Reliability
Abstract: A semiring-based theory is proposed for multi-state communication reliability with fuzzy dominance constraints. Links are weighted in the max-product semiring, while nodes carry dominance coefficients and operating states that modulate admissible transitions in a weighted automaton. The paper derives semiring matrix products, Kleene closures, fixed point equations, congestion-regularized path scores, and reliability inequalities. A fuzzy dominance automaton is introduced so that route selection depends not only on link reliability but …
