Ethnopharmacology, through the description of the beneficial effects of plants, has provided an early framework for the therapeutic use of natural compounds. Hepaclin-4 (Hep-4) contains the plants that are used for different kinds of fever, as well as liver diseases.

Gestational Diabetes Mellitus (GDM) presents significant health risks to both pregnant women and their fetuses. Early detection and regular monitoring of blood glucose levels are essential for managing these conditions. However, traditional invasive methods can be uncomfortable and may reduce patient compliance, highlighting the need for non-invasive alternatives such as photoplethysmography (PPG) technology. The aim of this scoping review is to identifying and analyzing various non-invasive technological innovations that utilize PPG signals to monitor blood glucose levels in diabetic patients

Over the past thirty years, much of the research interest has shifted towards the possible presence of a pre-dementia stage, often coined mild cognitive impairment (MCI). This may represent a valuable ‘window’ for health care professionals to intervene and manage modifiable risk factors in an attempt to delay progression of cognitive impairments. It also offers an opportunity to develop contingencies before patients potentially progress into dementia. Since 1989, the diagnostic criteria of MCI has evolved, with the most recent criteria being published in 2018. The heterogeneity of the diag
