Cocoa or chocolate has been consumed by humans for centuries. Besides being a pleasant and pleasurable drink, its use was supposed to increase stamina and reduce fatigue. Recently, medical benefits with cocoa intake have been objectively studied and validated. The benefits are attributed to the strong anti-oxidant activity of its flavonoid content. Dark chocolate has the highest concentration of cocoa. Increasing evidence is indicating that dark chocolate is a therapeutic food, especially for cardiovascular health.
Maternal complications are common during and following childbirth. Maternal complications are morbidities suffered during pregnancy through the postpartum period of 42 days. Maternal mortality is unacceptably high. About 800 women die from pregnancy- or childbirth-related complications around the world every day.
The global burden of cardiovascular disease is on the rise. An improper diet is repeatedly incriminated in the pathogenesis of cardiovascular disease. Epidemiological, research and clinical data strongly validates a protective role of an adequate intake of fruits and vegetables in the development and progression of cardiovascular diseases.
In this paper, we have a look at the potential power of thoughts and whether thoughts do have mass or the power to influence the physical environment like matter do with its gravity. We also have a look at some of the mind-boggling experiments performed in which thoughts seem to affect the physical universe and also take a peek at the probable mechanism of interaction between thoughts and the external environment.

Dissection of an elderly male cadaver revealed an unusual short segment of brachial artery coursing superficial to the median nerve with high up bifurcation/termination into the medial ulnar & lateral radial arteries. The point of termination/bifurcation was about 11.5 cm above the horizontally drawn line joining the medial and lateral epicondyles of humerus.
Data from epidemiological, prospective and meta-analysis studies confirming the reduction in cardiovascular outcomes due to moderate alcohol consumption are compelling. There is also a reduction in all-cause mortality. If drinkable alcohol was classified as a drug, it would be routinely prescribed for the prevention and management of several cardiovascular disorders.
Objectives: This Dermatoglyphics study was focused on to evaluate bilateral Dermatoglyphics dimorphism, gender Dermatoglyphics dimorphism, pattern occurrence and difference from mean pattern occurrence. Study Design & Method: It was conducted at B.J.Medical College, Ahmedabad, 152 students of 1st year MBBS (session2009-2010) took part as subjects.
The Renes/kidneys are always a subject of variations including their form, location, surfaces and borders may show variations.. The cadaveric dissection revealed a lobulated Left Kidney which is drained by a long obliquely coursed renal vein into the left common iliac vein, instead of draining horizontally into the inferior vena cava. The left supra renal vein was extending vertically to drain into the main renal vein of the left kidney.
Famotidine is a histamine-2 blocker. It works by decreasing the amount of acid the stomach produces. Famotidine is N'(aminosulfonyl)-3-[[[2- [(diaminomethylene) amino]-4-thiazolyl]methyl]thio]propanimidamide. The empirical formula of famotidine is C8H15N7O2S3 and its molecular weight is 337.43.
Obesity is a major global public health hazards in the 21st century. Obesity is a part of the spectrum of malnutrition with excess weight gain for the given age and habitus. In India all ages and both sexes have a high prevalence of obesity. Obesity invites disability disease and premature death.
The abdominal dissection of a female cadaver revealed an unusually notched liver with two diaphragmatic sulci extending from the superior surface to the upper part of the anterior surface. The liver was normal in size weighing about 1200 gms and occupied the entire right hypochondrium, extended into left hypochondrium passing through the epigastrium.
