Self medication is the use of medication for self treatment without consulting a physician either for diagnosis, prescription or surveillance of treatment. This study is a descriptive study that determined the psychosocial factors that influence the involvement in self medication and the perceived health implications among students of College of Health Sciences of Tertiary Institution in Anambra State, Nigeria.

Behavioural issues are frequently widespread on a global scale. Early diagnosis and treatment are crucial since untreated psychiatric diseases increase the chance of developing. The goal of the current review is to provide Ayurvedic rules in the form of a code of conduct, ethical standards, and a few other things. Ayurvedic therapies correlated with recently identified psychological interventions that could be useful in prevention and treatment of children's behavioural issues. Materials and Method On data, this review is based.

Oranges are rich source of antioxidants including pholiphenolic compounds flavonoids, carotenoids, and vitamin C. These antioxidants have anti-inflammatory and anti-cancer properties that help protect cells from damage. Oranges are also high in fiber, folate, and potassium, which can support heart health and prevent neural tube defects in unborn babies.

This work describes a novel green and ecofriendly technique for manufacture of pure and metal doped zinc oxide nanoparticles utilising aloe vera plant extract. The microwave approach was used to biosynthesize pure and 1.5 wt% Mg doped nanostructured zinc oxide utilising high purity metal nitrates and aloe vera plant extract.

Quinoa is a type of edible seed that comes in various colours including black, red, yellow, and white. It is classified as a whole grain and is a good source of plant protein and fiber. Unlike some plant proteins, quinoa is a complete protein, it contains all nine essential amino acids that our bodies cannot make on their own. Quinoa is also naturally gluten-free and can be eaten safely if one has gluten intolerance. Quinoa is loaded with vitamins and minerals and contains more fiber and protein than most other grains.

Studies were initiated to evaluate the influence of seed priming technique (Humic acid 20%, Carbendazim 2%, Imidachlobrid 3% and hydro priming technique) in conjunction with crop management techniques along with NPK application in Maize COHM 6. Seeds primed with Humic acid 20%, maintained the germination above the seed certification standard with higher seedling quality characters and lesser deteriorative observations compared to unprimed seed of COHM 6.

An investigation was carried out in JF-55 (Male parent) & Pusa Sawani (Female parent) to find out the effect of emasculation and bud pollination in comparison with emasculation and conventional pollination technique. The Crossing Techniques (CT) were evaluated for the crossing period of seven weeks and analysed for fruit set, seed yield and seed quality characters at weekly intervals. The results revealed that irrespective of the crossing period, bud pollination recorded 6% higher fruit set than conventional pollination.

Post-COVID conditions are wide range of new, returning or ongoing health problems that people experience after being infected with the virus during epidemic [COVID-19]. Most people with COVID-19 presented with different health problems noted in different opd clinics. Anyone who as infected can experience post-COVID conditions. Most people with post-COVID conditions experience symptoms days after first learning they had COVID-19, but some people who later experienced post-COVID conditions didnot know when they got infected.

Ageing is a normal process in all living organisms including human. With the progress of ageing physiological functions of different organs of the body become slower leading to many age-related diseases that are responsible for shortening of longevity. But this reduction of ageing varies from individual to individual. This diversity of changes in ageing process has come to the mind of scientists to find out some factors that regulate ageing both at the cellular and genetic levels.
