According to WHO, 30% of the world's population is anemic, 27% of anemia occurs in developing countries and 6% occurs in developed countries. The handling of anemia by the government has not been maximized so that companion therapy is needed. Objective: To see the potential of turmeric (curcuma longa) to increase hemoglobin. Methods: Search methods from Scopus, Pubmed, Elsevier, Willy and Google Scholar. Published 2010 2020. RCT research with prism technique. Analysis of 25 articles related to blood loss diseases. 2 articles on hemodialysis patients, 7 articles on thalassemia patients, 3 NAFLD patients, 4 ulcerative colitis patients, 1 prehypertension patient, 3 diabetes patients, 1 metabolic syndrome patient, 1 alanine transaminase elevated patient, 2 arthritis patients and 1 breast cancer patient. There are only 3 articles that show an increase in Hb levels, so it can be concluded that curcuma longa is not effective in increasing hemoglobin levels.

Background: Breast cancer is the most common malignant disease among the female population of Kazakhstan like in many developed countries of the world (Canada, UK, US, Western Europe), and it accounts for every 5th tumor. We aimed to assess the epidemiological aspects of breast cancer incidence and mortality among Almaty and Astana (Now Nur-Sultan), Kazakhstan residents in 2009-2018. Methods: A retrospective study using modern descriptive and analytical methods of epidemiology was conducted to evaluate the breast cancer incidence and mortality in megapolises of Kazakhstan. Results: The average annual age-standardized incidence rate of breast cancer amounted to 61.90/0000 (95% CI=56.2-67.6) in Almaty and 61.20/0000 (95% CI=56.765.7) in Astana. The average age-standardized mortality was 19.20/0000 (95% CI=17.3-21.1) in Almaty and 19.30/0000 (95% CI=17.1-21.4) in Astana. The standardized incidence in the megapolises tended to increase (Тgr=+0.8% in Almaty and Тgr=+1.4% in Astana), while the mortality was decreasing (Тdec=−4.2% in Almaty and Тdec=−1.1% in Astana). According to the component analysis, the growth in the number of breast cancer cases was due to a population increase (ΔP=+130.4% in Almaty and ΔP=+93.2% in Astana), with a notable decrease of factors related to the risk of getting sick (ΔR=−27.9% in Almaty, ΔR=−6.1% in Astana). Conclusion: This is the first epidemiological study to assess the changes in incidence and mortality from breast cancer in megapolises of Kazakhstan because of screening. The results of this study can be used to improve the government program to combat breast cancer.

The soaring housing prices in Malaysia is not a recent issue. It is a global phenomenon especially in developing and developed countries, driven by factors including land price, location, construction materials cost, demand, and speculation. This issue demands immediate attention as it affects the younger generation, most of whom could not afford to buy their own house. The government has taken many initiatives and introduced regulations to ensure that housing prices are within the affordable range. This article aims to introduce a housing price control element from the Shariah perspective, as an alternative solution for all parties involved in this issue. It adopts content analysis methodology on policy from Shariah approved sources.
