Unani system of medicine is known for its potential since ancient times. Elite Unani philosophers are credited for proposing consolidated theories and unleashing medical science from the domain of deities and demons. They have set the goal of medicine as prevention as well as cure of disease. Both the health and the disease are described in its own way in respect of functions. Unani philosophers contemplated that human body is composed of three basic components; solid (body organs), liquid (humours), gaseous (pneuma). The liquid substances of the body are collectively called as Akhlāṭ (humours). Every humour serves some specific and general functions. Basically, these are approximate principle for nutrition of organs. Black bile is one among the humours responsible for the health and the disease in the body. A right proportion of black bile keeps the body healthy, but disproportion of it causes deadly diseases. It is a fact that everything in the body is directly, or indirectly related with the four humours. In present study, a comprehensive explanation of black bile is given. Much emphasis is given on the genesis of normal and abnormal black bile. All factors responsible for alteration in black bile are enumerated thoroughly in the study. It is believed that the present work would help the reader in better understanding of the concept of black bile and their effect on the human health. Methodology: Relevant literary material is collected from classical books of Unani system of medicine. Present work is an attempt to analyse and systematize collected relevant literary information regarding the concept of black bile and their effect on the human health. Interpretation and conclusion: From the contents of literature; it is clear that black bile is the sediment of normal blood. It is the last to arise and receives the coarse, most meagre share of nutrients and has a retentive virtue, a cooling, drying, astringing, precipitating, condensing, solidifying effect on the metabolism necessary for building the bones, teeth and all dense, solid structures of the body. The black bile is an essential humour that keeps the body healthy. Therefore; an optimal level of black bile plays an important role in maintenance of health as other three humours. An imbalance in quality and quantity of black bile is responsible for the diseases. Key words: Akhlāṭ Arba‘a (humours); Sawdāʼ (black bile); health; disease.

Ayurveda has described three basic physiological constituent dosha, dhatu and mala for the existence of human body. Among them, seven dhatus form the structural units of the body. The functions of dhatus are dharana (to support) and poshan (to nourish). Dhatus undergo continuous construction and degeneration to maintain a state of equilibrium of the body. Majjadhatu is the sixth dhatu to be formed after asthi dhatu in uttrottardhatuposhan cycle. Bone marrow can be considered as a part of majja dhatu playing a significant role in erythropoiesis. Acharya Sushrut has mentioned about saraktameda and majja. Asthi (bone) and sandhi (joints) are the foundation of majjavahasrotas. The quantity of majjadhatu is one anjali. This manuscript is an attempt to explore the physio-anatomy of majja dhatu based on physiological functions described in ayurveda classics. For which the basic material has been collected from the ancient classics with the available commentaries as well as text books of contemporary modern medical science. KEY WORDS: Bone Marrow, Majja, Majjavahasrotas, Medas, Saraktameda.

Hermeneutics has been introduced as a science of Tafsīrand Ta’wīland this science emphasizes human understanding. Various fields related to the fields of human life and human civilization are the fields of study of this science. the different realms of hermeneutics in the field of medical science requires special delicacy and precision; because any inconsistency of the doctor's understanding with the truth of the disease puts the patient at risk of death. The present article, by descriptive and analytical methods, has applied Gadamerian hermeneutics based on Mulla Sadra's explanation of the truth with the topics of medical hermeneutics. Gadamerian method of medical hermeneutics has paid special attention to understanding the disease due to the importance of human life, and according to this method, both the physician and the patient participate in achieving the nature of the disease according to a dialogical and two-way model. Understanding the truth of the disease follows understanding the truth of the human body; and since the truth of the body, according to Mulla Sadra, depends on the truth of the soul and it also depends on the origin of the universe, which has infinite perfections, then the truth of the human body is unlimited. In short, the physician and the patient proceed through a dialogical relationship to a layer-by-layer understanding of the truth of the disease.

“Frenzy of bodies” — contemporary pornography and body medicalization. Historical-medical implicationsThe author believes that pornography of last few decades has gone changes which have not occurred since ancient times. These changes were initiated especially by the processes of medical­ization and, therefore, rationalization of the human body. Stripped from the odium of the sacrum sacred things, the mystery or the cosmological battle between Good and Evil, the body has been subjected to instrumentalisation in different dimensions. The last stage of changes that can be ob­served in contemporary pornography is its “somatization”. It is defined by the author as a functional and qualitative “reorientation” which means that pornographic narration is deprived of presenting emotional, relational or moral elements and aspects. The narration does not focus just on the “tech­nology” of the sexual act, but merely concentrates on the body, even going deep inside.

The use of naturally occurring nanobiotechnological inputs is essential for human health and the environment. This research is of fundamental importance, given consumers' current awareness of using more natural, sustainable and healthy pharmaceutical ingredients. Thus, there has been a growing demand for more biocompatible pharmaceutical formulations with the body, which should have on their labels no aggression to nature (environment) and no use of animal testing (USP-2018). Thus, consumers want to direct the benefits that come from nature, among other means of knowledge, to their families. They are seeking to associate the cost of the finished cosmetic product with the benefit it brings to the health of the human body. In this research the continuation of studies of scientists Araújo, Giudici and Sousa, in 2019 a, b and c, which used this patented nanobiotechnological input (USP-2018), was used in the natural formulation of liquid soap.

Essential Enzyme

: Xanthine oxidase (XO) is an essential enzyme in catalyzing hydroxylation of hypoxanthine to xanthine and uric acid in the kidney. Excessive formation of uric acid can lead to hyperuricemia (HUA), a condition caused by excess uric acid contamination in the blood.HUA is responsible for various diseases in the body, such as gout, cardiovascular, and renal failure. It is also associated with numerous inflammatory diseases and their metabolic pathways, including tumors, chronic hypoxia, renal injury, and hypertension. XO is a superoxide producing enzyme usually confined to lungs, liver, and blood serum. Blood assay and diagnostics for XO help in a better understanding of its associated diseases in the human body. The mechanism of how XO is released in the bloodstream is a matter of debate in medical science. In the current review article, we comprehensively discussed the role of XO in human health, inhibitors, and their regulation, isolation, and extractions of inhibitors from plants, types, and their activities towards the human health perspective are concerned.

Anatomy is broadly appreciated as being one of the cornerstones of medical education. If we go through the his- tory of human anatomy, it seems that the anatomy of modern times is well recognized from the days of the re- naissance that is from the 15th century. Medical Science was one area where surprising advances had been made in ancient times in India. Specifically, these advances were in the areas of human dissection, embryology, plastic surgery, extraction of cataracts, description of Asthi, Sandhi, Peshi, Snayu, Marma And Pramana Sharira etc. These do not just claim. There is documentary evidence to prove the existence of these practices. Acharya Sushruta has paid great should start his surgical carrier unless he is well aware of human anatomy. Acharya Charaka also studied the anatomy of the human body and various organs. He also described the number of mus- cles joints etc., in the human body. The object of the present study is to trace out the most significant and valua- ble hidden treasures of anatomy practised in the past by Acharya and its review in Modern science. Keywords: Asthi, Sandhi, Plastic surgery, Snayu Marma
