Brain waves are oscillations in electrical activity thought to be produced by the multitude of synapses within the cerebral cortex, influenced also by regulatory relay sites in the brainstem. Sterman and Lubar’s seminal research begun in the 1960s and 70s showed that the motor cortex of alert and motionless cats produces a 12-15 Hz sensorimotor […]

Pharmacopuncture treatments are proposed for cardiovascular disease and heart failure [1]. Heart failure results from complex environment-gene interactions. β-adrenergic receptors and protein kinase A (PKA) interact with histones and related segments of deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) at promoter regions of genes for messenger ribo nucleic acid (mRNA) transcription. This increases cardiac muscle mass and contractility in […]

Dengue fever is a mosquito-borne viral illness caused by the dengue virus, transmitted primarily by Aedes aegypti and Aedes albopictus mosquitoes. Characterized by sudden high and then undulating fever, severe headache, joint and muscle pain, nausea, and a rash, dengue can range from mild to life-threatening. In severe cases, it progresses to dengue hemorrhagic fever, […]

Diabetes is a chronic metabolic disorder characterized by elevated blood glucose levels due to the body’s inability to produce or effectively use insulin, a hormone that regulates blood sugar. Type 1 diabetes results from autoimmune destruction of insulin-producing cells, while Type 2 diabetes, the most common form, stems from insulin resistance and lifestyle factors. Left […]

In today’s digital age, children are growing up surrounded by digital technology and social media. While these tools can provide numerous benefits, such as access to information and communication with others, they also have significant impact on our children’s mental health. One of the primary concerns regarding social media and electronic devices is the impact […]

Probably the easiest thing to do in this world is to complain. And at times it seems that the better something is, the more we find the flaw and fault and the more we express it: like everyone will notice the one white spot on an otherwise perfectly uniformed- coloured black wall. And while it […]
