Perturbed Quantum Computation of the Non-linear Dynamical System in Terms of Bose-Mesner Algebra Using N-Coupled Maps
Abstract: AbstractThe author has considered the non-linear dynamical system comprising of brain, heart, kidney, physiological processes, thinking mechanism and immune system. The components of the dynamical system are interconnected with each other. In the present work he has discussed the perturbation in the non-linear dynamical system due to intense BIS processes. The BIS processes occurring in the surroundings constantly affect our neural network bringing about sudden changes in nervous system. The …

A Scientific Study: Regulation of Autonomic Nervous System through Slow Breath Pranayama
Abstract: Voluntary slow deep breathing functionally resets autonomic nervous system through stretch induced inhibitory signals and hyper-polarization currents that propagate through both, neural and non-neural tissue. The scientific basis of benefits of practicing slow Pranayama, especially alternate nostril breathing (Nadi Shodhana Pranayama as NSP) and Dhyana is regulation of cerebral dominance and shifting of autonomic nervous system. This regulation occurs via Nadisunder control of Agya Chakra. The aim of the present …

Platelets A Tiny Cell Fragments
Abstract: Platelets are disc-shaped, anucleate cells that are approximately 2-3 μm in diameter. Their primary function is to control hemostasis, or blood clotting, but they also play important roles in angiogenesis (the formation of new blood vessels) and innate immunity (the body's first line of defence against infection). With a diameter of just 2-3 microns, platelets are tiny, disc-shaped cells that lack a nucleus. While their main responsibility is to ensure …
