EHF-Imprinted Autologous Blood-Fraction Blank Granules and Biological-Parameter Improvement in Cancer-Remission Patients and Healthy Adults: A 12-Week Prospective Controlled Exploratory Study
Background: Patients with cancer may experience persistent fatigue, anemia tendency, immune depletion, inflammatory activation, metabolic stress, and reduced autonomic resilience after conventional treatment. Patient-specific blank granules prepared from autologous biological material are used in selected traditional, homeopathic, and subtle-field practices, but controlled supportive-care data remain limited. Objective: To evaluate whether blank granules imprinted ex vivo with autologous blood-fraction information using an extremely high frequency (EHF) millimeter-wave device were associated with biological-parameter improvement in cancer-remission patients and healthy adults. Methods: This 12-week prospective controlled exploratory study enrolled 72 adults with cancer in clinical remission and 120 healthy adults. The cancerremission active group included 36 participants (21 women/15 men; age 55 +/- 6 years), the cancer-remission control group included 36 participants (20 women/16 men; age 53 +/- 7 years), and the healthy active cohort included 120 participants (54 women/66 men; age 58 +/- 7 years). Participants originated from Turkiye, the United Kingdom, the United States, the Netherlands, Jordan, the United Arab Emirates, and Qatar. Cancer participants were allocated 1:1 to EHF-imprinted autologous blood-fraction blank granules or matched control blank granules. Healthy adults received EHF-imprinted autologous blood-fraction blank granules and followed the same assessment schedule. Results: Compared with matched control blank granules, the active cancer-remission group showed greater 12-week improvement in hemoglobin, red blood cell count, red-cell distribution width, lymphocytes, natural killer cells, T4/T8 ratio, exploratory PrimedMT-cell percentage, C-reactive protein, fibrinogen, albumin-globulin ratio, heart-rate variability, sleep, and fatigue. Full-parameter response occurred in 16 of 36 active cancer participants and 5 of 36 control participants. Healthy adults showed favorable Week 12 aggregate shifts across immune-surveillance, inflammatory, metabolic, autonomic, sleep, and fatigue parameters; all 120 met the predefined healthy-cohort full-response criterion. Relative biological movement was generally larger in the cancer-remission active group than in healthy adults, consistent with greater baseline dysregulation and a larger recovery window. No adverse events were observed. Conclusion: EHF-imprinted autologous blood-fraction blank granules were associated with greater supportive biological-parameter improvement than matched control granules in cancer-remission patients and favorable aggregate shifts in healthy adults. The study did not assess tumor response, progressionfree survival, or overall survival.

Personalized Therapeutic Strategies in Sepsis and Septic Shock: Integrating Biomarkers, Immune Phenotypes, and Targeted Interventions
Sepsis remains a major global health challenge and is characterized by a highly heterogeneous and dysregulated host response to infection that can lead to life-threatening organ dysfunction and septic shock. Despite advances in critical care management, clinical outcomes remain poor in a significant proportion of patients, largely due to the biological and clinical heterogeneity of the syndrome. In recent years, increasing attention has been directed toward precision medicine approaches aimed at improving patient stratification and guiding individualized therapeutic strategies. This review summarizes current evidence on the classification of sepsis into distinct phenotypes and endotypes based on clinical characteristics, immune response profiles, and biomarker signatures. Particular emphasis is placed on the spectrum of immune dysregulation ranging from hyperinflammatory states to immunosuppressive phenotypes and the implications of these patterns for targeted therapeutic interventions. Emerging rescue strategies for refractory septic shock, including extracorporeal life support modalities such as extracorporeal membrane oxygenation, hemoadsorption techniques, immunomodulatory therapies, and other phenotype-directed interventions, are also discussed. In addition, advances in biomarker-guided stratification and translational insights into the molecular mechanisms underlying sepsis pathophysiology are highlighted. Collectively, these developments underscore the potential of precision medicine frameworks to improve the identification of clinically relevant patient subgroups and to optimize therapeutic decisionmaking. Future research focusing on validated biomarkers, robust phenotyping strategies, and well-designed clinical trials will be essential to translate these concepts into improved clinical outcomes for patients with sepsis and septic shock.

The ancient scientists of consciousness and energetics and contemporary physicists differ little in their passion to grasp the fundamental components of the world, universe, cosmos. Their findings are not very different. The immense gap between ancient and contemporary explorers is evident primarily in the enormous diversity of their methods of investigation and the huge difference in the nature of their laboratories
A Heatmap Regression-Based HR Net Method for Hand Acupoint Recognition
Objective: This study investigates hand acupoint recognition using deep learning, leveraging image processing and deep learning technologies to automatically identify acupoint categories and locations on the hand. This approach aims to enhance the accuracy of acupoint recognition, providing a reference for young traditional Chinese medicine practitioners and advancing the modernization of acupuncture diagnosis and treatment. Methods: This study developed an HRNet-based hand acupoint recognition method using heatmap regression, applied to the recognition task of six common dorsal hand acupoints, including Shaozhe (SI1) and Zhongzhu (SJ3). Standardization, normalization, and data augmentation techniques were employed during the image preprocessing stage. Model training employed either heatmap regression or coordinate regression strategies. The proposed method was compared with four deep learning models—Simple Baseline, ResNet50, and VGG16—on a self-created dataset of 1,102 hand acupoint images, and model performance was evaluated using multiple metrics including PCK, IoU, OKS, and precision. Results: Experimental results show that the HRNet model based on heatmap regression performs best across all metrics (PCK: 95.37%, IoU: 80.04%, precision: 94.89%, OKS: 90.07%), outperforming Simple Baseline (PCK: 94.12%, etc.); among coordinate regression models, VGG16 outperforms ResNet50. The overall recognition accuracy of the heatmap regression model was significantly higher than that of the coordinate regression model. Conclusion: This study validated the feasibility and effectiveness of deep learning models in hand acupoint recognition, particularly the HRNet model based on heatmap regression, which demonstrated significant advantages in terms of accuracy and stability. This method not only provides precise acupoint localization assistance for traditional Chinese medicine practitioners but also offers critical data support for precise diagnosis and treatment in intelligent medical devices such as acupuncture robots.

Objective Evaluate the clinical efficacy and safety of Qi-Zhi-Yi-Shen Formula in treating qi deficiency and blood stasis syndrome in chronic glomerulonephritis (CGN) Methods The clinical study included 48 patients with qi deficiency and blood stasis type chronic glomerulonephritis, who were divided into an experimental group and a control group based on actual conditions and patient willingness, receiving treatment for 8 weeks. Both groups underwent routine basic treatment; the control group received conventional treatment supplemented with Irbesartan tablets, while the experimental group additionally received modified Qi-Zhi-Yi-Shen Formula. Relevant indicator data were collected to assess changes in urinary protein quantification, kidney function indicators, urinary red blood cell count, and traditional Chinese medicine syndrome scores before and after treatment. Statistical analysis of all data was performed using SPSS software to compare the differences in results within and between groups before and after treatment. Results Before treatment, the basic information and various indicators of both groups were comparable (P > 0.05). After treatment, comparisons showed: ① 24-hour urinary protein quantification: both groups showed significant improvement (P < 0.05), with the experimental group outperforming the control group (P < 0.05). ② Urinary red blood cell count: both groups improved compared to before (P < 0.05), with the experimental group outperforming the control group (P < 0.05). ③ Creatinine: both groups had lower creatinine levels compared to before (P < 0.05), with the experimental group outperforming the control group (P < 0.05). ④ Traditional Chinese medicine syndrome scores: both groups showed a decrease (P < 0.05), with the experimental group outperforming the control group (P < 0.05). ⑤ Overall efficacy comparison: the total effective rate of the experimental group was 95.8%, while that of the control group was 83.3%. ⑥ Comparison of traditional Chinese medicine syndrome efficacy: the effective rate of the experimental group was 95.8%, while that of the control group was 83.3%. No abnormal blood potassium levels or liver function damage occurred during treatment Conclusion The application of Qi-zhi-Yi-shen Formula on the basis of conventional Western medicine treatment can significantly improve the traditional Chinese medicine syndrome scores, kidney function indicators, urinary protein quantification, and urinary red blood cell count in patients with chronic glomerulonephritis, with good safety.
Gas vs Electric Stoves: Evaluating the Impact of Cooking Practiceson Particulate Matter and Total Volatile Organic Compounds inHome Kitchens
Our daily cooking routine, from the stove we use to how we prepare our meals, significantly affects the air we breathe at home. This study investigated how electric and gas stoves compare when it comes to indoor air quality, focusing on frying and boiling. The research employs real- time monitoring using Awair Element low-cost sensors to assess concentrations of particulate matter (PM2.5, µg/m³), total volatile organic compounds (TVOCs, ppb),and carbon dioxide (CO2, ppm) during cooking sessions. The study carefully considers various cooking methods, pot sizes, and meat types, ensuring a comprehensive evaluation of emissions The findings highlight the critical role of both stove type and cooking conditions in determining IAQ. There does not appear to be strong differences in cooking emissions between gas and electric stoves overall. TVOC concentrations remained relatively consistent across stove types and methods, except in one trial—gas boiling with the fan off—which showed an elevated TVOC reading above the baseline-adjusted average. Gas stoves consistently emitted slightly higher levels of harmful pollutants, while electric stoves showed potential concerns related to PM2.5 spikes during frying, particularly in the final minute of cooking. Proper ventilation emerged as a critical mitigation strategy, effectively reducing overall emissions with varying impacts on PM2.5 depending on the stove type and cooking method. his study underscores the importance of considering both stove type and cooking conditions when optimizing IAQ in residential kitchens. While electric stoves may be preferable for reducing overall pollutant emissions, proper ventilation is crucial for both stove types, especially during high-temperature cooking activities like frying. Further research is necessary to elucidate the factors influencing PM2.5 fluctuations from electric stoves and refine ventilation strategies for both stove types to ensure healthier indoor environments. Despite some study limitations, including sensor sensitivity, the research contributes valuable insights for individuals, researchers, and policymakers seeking to enhance indoor air quality and public health.

Formulation and Evaluation of Tolterodine Tartrate SustainedRelease Pellets by Using Spheronization and Extrusion Technique
This study aimed to formulate and evaluate sustained-release pellets of Tolterodine Tartrate using extrusion and spheroidization techniques, focusing on the tablet form for improved drug delivery. Tolterodine Tartrate, commonly used for overactive bladder treatment, requires controlled release to enhance therapeutic efficacy and patient compliance. Drug-excipient compatibility was assessed through physical observation and Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, with no significant interactions observed. The flow properties, including bulk density, tapped density, and angle of repose, were optimized to ensure uniform pellet formation. The physicochemical evaluation of the pellets, including drug content, friability, and weight variation, met the required quality standards for tablet use. In-vitro drug release studies, conducted using the USP type I basket method, revealed that the optimized formulation (F5) exhibited a cumulative drug release of 88% after 7 hours, closely mimicking the performance of the innovator tablet formulation. Kinetic modeling of the release profiles indicated a diffusion-controlled release mechanism, fitting Zero-order and Higuchi models. Stability studies under accelerated conditions (40°C/75% RH) over 6 months showed no significant changes in the physical appearance, drug release profile, or assay values, indicating the stability of the optimized formulation. The results highlight the effectiveness of the sustained-release tablet formulation, offering a promising alternative to traditional immediate-release tablets, ensuring prolonged therapeutic effects and improved patient adherence to treatment.
Importance of Macronutrients and Micronutrients in Pregnancy:Dietary Patterns and Guidelines for Maternal and Fetal Health
Optimal nutrition is essential throughout pregnancy for the health of the mother as well as the growing fetus. In order to promote the fetal growth and bdevelopment, it is important for women to maintain a healthy diet that supports their physiological changes during pregnancy. During pregnancy, proper nutrition plays a vital role in shaping the health of both the mother and the developing fetus. Proper foetal growth depends on consuming the essential nutrients that are required during pregnancy, which can also prevent birth abnormalities and complications. For example, folic acid plays an important role in preventing neural tube abnormalities and consuming sufficient iron helps to prevent the maternal anaemia which supports the increased blood volume required during pregnancy. Proper nutrition during pregnancy reduces the risk of preterm delivery. However, nutritional deficiency causes complications during pregnancy, such as low birth weight, premature delivery, and an increased risk of developing chronic diseases later in life. Additionally, key dietary patterns during pregnancy should focus on the consumption of whole, minimally processed foods that provide a balance of macronutrients and micronutrients. Emphasizing a variety of fruits and vegetables, lean proteins, healthy fats, and complex carbohydrates, along with proper hydration, helps to support the physiological changes of pregnancy. This review paper highlights the importance of macronutrients and micronutrients for both the mother and foetus. It also discusses the reproductive dietary patterns and pregnancy care guidelines.

A child sucks her thumb for self-comfort. An adult touches several fingers to his forehead or leans a cheek into her balled-up fist as a response to cognitive stress. We cross our arms or place our hands on our hips when we seek safety and grounding. None of us are explicitly taught to use these postures as coping mechanisms, yet when the need arises, we fall back on them without conscious effort. Where does this innate physical vocabulary come from? Within the healing practice of the Art of Jin Shin, these particular body positions are known to stimulate areas at which the energy within the body tends to accumulate and stall.

Professor Xie advocates for a balance between tumors and the body, and in the practice of living with cancer, he combines internal and external TCM treatments, as well as strategies to support health and suppress cancer, providing support for the modernization and internationalization of TCM in oncology and bringing new hope for cancer patients worldwide.
A Study on the Long-Term Use of Shenqi Pill Replacing Fuzi withWuweizi in Historical Perspectives
This study explores the traditional Chinese medicine formulation Shenqi Pill, originally described in Shanghan Zhabing Lun, and its application in treating kidney deficiency-related ailments. While the pill includes Fuzi, known for its toxicity, concerns arise regarding its long-term use. Historical texts such as Qianjin Yaofang and Zhuhou Beiji Fang suggest substituting Fuzi with Wuweizi for prolonged administration, citing the latter’s safety and therapeutic benefits. Wuweizi not only addresses labor-induced weakness but also nourishes kidney and liver function, possessing a balanced flavor profile with lower toxicity. This research emphasizes the importance of historical literature in guiding safe herbal practices, advocating for the incorporation of Wuweizi in Shenqi Pill to enhance patient safety while maintaining efficacy in treatment.

Multiple Traumatic Fat Embolism with Aortic Dissection III ACase Report
Multiple trauma refers to the severe injury of multiple body parts caused by a single injury factor, occurring simultaneously or consecutively. This condition leads to numerous tissue injuries, significant organ damage, and high mortality rates. Fat embolism syndrome, on the other hand, is a clinical condition marked by the presence of fat droplets in the bloodstream, resulting in a range of symptoms and signs. The most prevalent manifestations include ecchymotic rash, respiratory distress, and neurological dysfunction. In intensive care units (ICUs), routine CT scans are essential, particularly chest CTs, which often reveal a diffuse distribution of ground glass opacity shadows. In more extensive cases, “snowstorm”-like changes may be observed. Traumatic aortic injuries frequently manifest as scissor force injuries at the aortic isthmus, with the majority of cases occurring in this region. However, other aortic injuries typically occur at the aortic hiatus and the origins of major vessels. Instances where both fat embolism and traumatic aortic dissection III occur concurrently due to multiple trauma are exceptionally rare.

Clinical Characteristics Analysis of 9 Cases COVID-19 PatientsReceiving Integrated Traditional Chinese and Western Medicine:A Retrospective Study
Recently 2019-nCov is still spreading around the world, vaccines have been developed but still no specific medicine so far, so here we want to provide a potential and complementary plan to COVID-19 or even other epidemic diseases. So, we hypothesized Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) may have positive effect on cure of COVID-19. Here we report 9 COVID-19 patients hospitalized in our hospital, including 8 mild-type and 1 severe-type. Besides antiviral and other supportive treatment (Western Medicine, WM), all of them received Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) at the same time, and we collected the epidemiological, demographic, clinical and laboratory data of the patients and analyzed the outcome. After treatment by integration of WM and TCM, the pulmonary inflammations are gradually absorbed and finally disappeared, and other laboratory tests turned to normal (hs-CRP, T lymphocytes, CD4+ T cells and CD8+ T, etc.). All patients (including the severe type) have been discharged from the hospital, and the shortest course of treatment is only 12 days. Together with the fact that other parts of China using TCM, we speculate TCM might play an encouraging role in this process and may be an adjuvant and complementary therapy of COVID-19, combined with the application of defeating SARS, which may bring a meaningful reference to COVID-19 or even other epidemic diseases’ treatment worldwide, in spite of the efficacy and definite conclusions still need further study
he Enigma of Rhupus Syndrome: A Case Report on SystemicLupus Erythematosus (SLE) and Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA)Convergence
Rhupus syndrome is an uncommon and difficult clinical disease that results from the co-occurrence of Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA) and Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE). There is an underdiagnosis of rhupus cases because the overlapping symptoms of both conditions frequently do not match the standard diagnostic criteria for autoimmune disorders. The neurological and physiological difficulties linked to this complex illness have a substantial impact on the health-related quality of life of patients. Pain, swelling, stiffness, deformities, and varied degrees of functional impairment are among the signs that must be identified in order to diagnose rhupus clinically. The clinical information of a young male exhibiting rheumatoid arthritis symptoms is presented in this case report. For a proper diagnosis and efficient treatment, it is essential to comprehend and deal with the complexity of rheumatoid arthritis.
Talk to your health care provider about exercising during pregnancy. For most pregnant women, exercising is safe and healthy for you and your baby. If you and your pregnancy are healthy, exercise won’t increase your risk of having a miscarriage (when a baby dies in the womb before 20 weeks of pregnancy), a premature baby (born before 37 weeks of pregnancy) or a baby born with low birthweight (less than 5 pounds, 8 ounces).

he Use of Oromo Traditional Medicine (Ethiopia): Reflection onthe Use of Indigenous Knowledge Resources
Traditional resources are used by local people in reliving different forms of illness. Such resources are not only produced and used but also cared for ethically, in a morally sustainable manner. This paper presents traditionally selected medical resources in Oromo that are present in the form of herbs, roots, vegetables and food items. The aim is to introduce the local medication system and help experiential exchange with other societies in Ethiopia and elsewhere. Oromo people are culturally vast and ethnically well-grounded as they have their own distinct system-Gadaa System- which has three forms of interchange. To Oromo, man is attached to God’s Law and abides by the existing social norm. An Oromo person also learns and acts to love and respect other members with due care and dignity. War or unwanted clashes are highly regulated and disregarded among Oromo society. Oromo people also share existing resources among themselves and others with kindness and ease of mind. The focus of this research, Oromo Traditional Medicine, is just a parcel of Oromo democratic and mutual beneficence.
Organic Matter and its Sources of Energy
The high-energy processes of the early universe led to the formation of matter, atoms and molecules in a scientific manner. And so simple organic compounds were also formed, which in the course of development developed into highly specialized systems. But along this path of development, the influence of the laws of nature was preserved, even though the effects of the exertion of influence can be assessed in different degrees. From the knowledge of biochemistry, the impression remains that the energetic conditions of the cell systems appear to be “quasi autonomous”. But that is not the case. The influence of natural forces, such as magnetism, is present in these biological systems and is of crucial importance. This is discussed, because energy is life

Formulation and Evaluation of Herbal Lipstick using HibiscusRosa-Sinensis
Synthetic dyes were frequently utilized in the formulation of marketable lipsticks. However, the practice of synthetic dye has been associated with many health problems. Hence, natural colorant might tender a promising solution to this problem. The Anthocynin which are found in Hibiscus have drawn attention as a potential source of natural colorant to synthetic dye. However, the use of natural colorant in available is limited due to its low stability towards temperature, oxygen, pH, phyoto and colour deterioration across storage. The purpose of this study was to formulate lipsticks with Anthocynin and evaluate its feasibility as natural colorant in lipstick formulation and study its stability across one-month storage period. In this research, Anthocynin was extracted from fresh Hibiscus flowers using water by compression. The extracted anthrocynin pigment was used to prepare lipsticks with basic lipstick formula and the preapared lipsticks were store under light or dark condition for one-month storage period for stability study. The physico-chemical properties of the formulated lipstick like breaking point, surface anomalies, spreadability, skin irritation test, melting point, and perfume stability, homogeneity and colour uniformity were studied and compared with marketable lipsticks. The stability of the formuated lipstick establishes to be stable under dark condition while color loss was greater for lipstick in light condition. Although, lipstick achieved closer standard to commercial lipstick. However, due to the low pigmentation from method, Anthocynin is suggested incorporate in to lip balm application. This research study has proven that Anthocynin could be best replacement for synthetic dye in cosmetics industry for lip balm application.
