Hemoglobin is the Breath of Life within Our Cells: An Update
Abstract: Hemoglobin is a fascinating protein found in human red blood cells. This specialist protein carries oxygen from your lungs to every cell in your body, functioning as a little delivery system. While hemoglobin’s stronghold on oxygen is necessary, releasing it at the right time is a delicate challenge. This adaptable protein masterfully balances holding on to its oxygen cargo or releasing it swiftly. This article explores how hemoglobin achieves this …

Rheumatoid Arthritis and its Relationship with Vitamin D, ESR, and Obesity
Abstract: Recent years have seen a rise in the prevalence of rheumatoid arthritis (RA), a disease marked by the destruction of articular cartilage and ankylosis of the joints, as well as other complications such as diffuse lung inflammation, sclera, pleura, pericardium, and nodular lesions, which are also common in subcutaneous tissue. Reviewing RA symptoms, diagnosis, treatment, and associations with vitamin D, ESR, and obesity was the aim of the study. Even …

In Situ Investigation of Hemidesmus indicus Phytocompound Extracts as a Therapeutic Target for Acute Myeloid Leukemia
Abstract: Objective: Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is an apoptotic condition in the hematopoietic system induced by the differentiation and maturation of stem cells into erythrocytes, and leukemic cell proliferation is suppressed as the PI3K-Akt-mTOR pathway is pharmacologically targeted with certain inhibitors. As a result, in silico molecular docking of compounds against AML receptors, CTMP, was used in computational research on Hemidesmus indicus to uncover therapeutic phytochemicals for AML. Thus, this study …

Clinical Evaluation of Efficacy of a Polyherbal Unani Formulation (Mentioned in Makhzan-Ul-Ilaj) in the Management of Warm-e-Lauzatain-Haad (Acute Tonsillitis)
Abstract: Background: Warm-e-Lauzatain-Haad (Acute Tonsillitis) is an inflammatory condition of the palatine tonsils characterized by throat pain, fever, odynophagia and general discomfort. It is particularly common among adolescents and young adults and contributes substantially to outpatient visits and missed academic or workdays. In Unani medicine Warm-e-Lauzatain is described as a hot inflammatory swelling arising from deranged humors, exposure to irritants or descending catarrhal matter. Classical Unani texts including Makhzan-ul-Ilaj, advocate the …

A Study on Precision Blood Propulsion in Motor-Driven Artificial Hearts
Abstract: The development of biocompatible, energy-efficient pumping mechanisms is pivotal for advancing artificial heart (AH) technology. This study explores a motor-driven centrifugal pump designed to replicate the physiological dynamics of natural ventricles while mitigating complications associated with conventional axial and pulsatile systems. The proposed system employs a brushless DC motor with closed-loop control, integrated with pressure and flow sensors to modulate rotational speed (RPM) and generate biomimetic cardiac output. The suggested …

Hematopoietic Stem Cells: Sources and Therapeutic Potential for Autoimmune Diseases and Cancer
Abstract: Hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) are a group of multipotent adult stem cells that are responsible for lifelong production of all types of functional blood cells comprising myeloid (monocytes, macrophages, granulocytes), megakaryocytes/platelets, red blood cells (erythrocyte), T-cells, B-cells, natural killer (NK) cells, mast cells and dendritic cells (DCs). HSCs have the capacity for self-renewal and differentiation into various tissues. These remarkable properties of HSCs make them an ideal tool for tissue …

Distribution of Hemoglobin Concentration among the School Students of Rural Area of Kaski District, Nepal
Abstract: Hemoglobin is an oxygen carrying tetrameric hemeprotein found in erythrocytes where, it is responsible for binding oxygen in the lung and transporting the bound oxygen throughout the body. Its deficiency in our body causes decrease supply of oxygen that leads to various severe complications even up to death. Low Hb concentration is the common problem in the school students in developing countries. This study therefore sought to evaluate the frequency …
