5. A study on the integration of the Global Positioning System (GPS) in emergency service vehicles.

The integration of GPS technology and traffic signal control in emergency vehicles, particularly ambulances, can significantly improve response times and save precious minutes in critical situations. By connecting the GPS systems of emergency vehicles with traffic signals, the signals can automatically change to green when an ambulance is approaching, creating a clear path for the ambulance to pass through intersections without delay. This system relies on a network of sensors and communication equipment that are able to detect the ambulance's location and adjust traffic signals in real-time. The benefits of this technology are numerous as it not only helps save lives by reducing response times but also reduces traffic congestion by optimizing traffic flow. This innovative approach to ambulance transportation can make a tremendous impact in emergency situations, particularly in densely populated areas where traffic congestion can impede the progress of emergency vehicles. In short, the integration of GPS-connected traffic signals can be a game-changer for emergency vehicle transportation and help ensure that ambulances reach their destination quickly and safely ultimately saving lives while improving efficiency in emergency response systems.

6. Investigation on thermal conductivity of polymer (epoxy) based composites

The current research investigates the influence of fiber volume fraction on effective thermal conductivity (keff) in polymeric materials. This study identifies a method to improve the insulating property of a traditional fiber-reinforced polymer composite. A quantitative relationship for the heat transfer coefficients of polymer composites reinforced with fiber is created utilizing the law of minimal thermal performance and the equal law of particular similar thermal conductivity. To validate this statistical equation, two sets of polymer composites with fiber concentrations ranging from 0 to 15.7 vol percent were hand-built. Natural fibers such as banana fibers are integrated into an epoxy matrix in one set of composites, whilst glass fiber is employed as a filler material in another set, although the matrix material remains unchanged. Thermal conductivities of these composite materials are tested in accordance with ASTM standard E-1530 using the Unit herm TM Model 2022 tester, which operates on the double shielded heat flow concept. Furthermore, using the commercially accessible finite element tool ANSYS, the finite element technique (FEM) is employed to quantitatively measure the k eff of such composites. The numerical values generated by the proposed statistical model are then compared to empirically measured values. The analytical and simulation results reveal that the appropriate heat conductivity value for both sets of composites steadily declines as fiber concentration increases. Because none of the models developed properly anticipated the rate of heat transfer of the composites, the results generated from the proposed system closely match the experimental data. This study shows that as the fiber loading in the composite increases, so does the heat transmission rate. The use of 15.7 vol percent glass fiber in epoxy resin reduces heat conductivity by around 8%, whereas a 12 percent decrease is observed when the banana fiber is used as a filler. This research backs up the conceptual approach while indicating that finite element analysis is an effective tool for such investigations. This thermal insulating, fiber-reinforced polymer composites have potential applications in insulating boards, food containers, thermo flasks, construction materials, and so on due to their low thermal conductivity and lightweight.

7. Proposed survey questionnaire for the diagnosis of irritable bowel syndrome: Based on patient complaints

Functional bowel disorders (FBD) are extremely common all over the globe. Enhancing knowledge of FBD is essential because they have a detrimental effect on the healthcare system. Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) is one such FBD where recurrent abdominal pain is associated with a change in bowel habits. Many conditions mimic IBS which include celiac disease, microscopic colitis, inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), lactose and fructose intolerance, etc. In order to correctly differentiate these disorders from IBS, limited testing may be necessary. Considering these overlapping conditions we thought of developing a questionnaire to help the physicians diagnose IBS based on a scoring system. A set of questions were drafted based on patient complaints and each question had a scoring system. Basis the patient's response to each question the total score would help the physicians understand if the patient is suffering from IBS. This is a brand-new grading system that has not yet undergone testing. The medical community is urged to evaluate the scoring system's usefulness and provide input so that it can be improved.

11. Diagnosis of transformer faults using multi-class AdaBoost algorithm

Low fault diagnosis accuracy is caused by the ineffectiveness of traditional shallow machine learning methods un exploring the connection between the oil-immersed transformer fault data. In response, this study suggests a method for diagnosing transformer faults based on multi-class adaBoost algorithms solves this issue. First, the SVM and the adaBoost algorithm are linked. The SVM is improved by the adaBoost approach, and the transformer defect data is thoroughly investigated. The IPSO is then used to optimize the SVM's parameters when the dynamic weight is added to the PSO algorithm. This is accomplished by updating the particle inertia weight in real-time. Lastly, by examining the relationship between the type of fault and the dissolved gas in the transformer oil, the uncoded ratio technique develops a novel gas set collaboration. The feature vector used as the input is produced using the enhanced ratio approach. The diagnosis method suggested in this paper has a significant increase in diagnostic accuracy when compared to conventional methods, according to simulations using 419 collection of transformer fault data and 117 groups of IECTC10 standard data that were gathered in China. Additionally, it has a fast confluence speed and a powerful search capability.

12. Employing Machine Learning, A Multiclass Prediction Model For The Student Grading System.

In today's higher education institutions, predictive analytics applications have become a pressing need. In order to generate high-quality performance and valuable data for all educational levels, predictive analytics used sophisticated analytics that included the application of machine learning. the majority of people are aware that One of the main metrics that may be used by educators to track students' academic progress is their grades. In the last ten years, a wide range of machine learning algorithms has been proposed by researchers in the field of education. To improve the performance of predicting student grades, addressing imbalanced datasets presents serious difficulties. Therefore, this study gives a thorough review of machine learning algorithms to predict the final student grades in the first semester courses by enhancing the performance of prediction accuracy. In this study, we'll emphasize two modules. Using a dataset of 1282 genuine student course grades, we assess the accuracy performance of six well-known machine learning techniques: Decision Tree (J48), Support Vector Machine (SVM), Nave Bayes (NB), K-Nearest Neighbor (kNN), Logistic Regression (LR), and Random Forest (RF). In order to reduce overfitting and misclassification results brought on by imbalanced multi-classification based on oversampling Synthetic Minority Oversampling Technique (SMOTE) using two feature selection methods, we have suggested a multiclass prediction model. The outcomes demonstrate that the suggested model integrates with RF and gives a notable improvement with the greatest f-measure of 99.5%. This model's suggested findings are comparable and encouraging, and they have the potential to improve the model's performance predictions for imbalanced multi-classification for student grade prediction.

13. Advanced key access security system on cloud computing

In this study, we create a system for managing key access that translates any access control policies with a hierarchical system to digital media. The given approach can be applied to any cloud infrastructure system as a private cloud. We consider the data owner to be a composite organizational entity. Every user of this organization has a secure way to connect to the public cloud within as well as outside the corporate servers. Our key access control mechanism, which is based upon Shamir's secret image-sharing method and the polynomials interpolation technique, is particularly well suited for tiered organizational structures. It offers a hierarchy, secure, and flexible key access solution for organizations handling mission-critical data. Moreover, it always concerns with moving quest information into the public cloud by using the topology order of shapes the way, including self-loop, and making sure that only individuals with The Keys can be accessible with enough permission from similarly privileged users or above. A significant overhead, such as the need for both public and private storage, is reduced to a manageable level by the computationally efficient key derivation. Our solution provides crucial security that can be distinguished from other systems as well as resistance to group attacks. In addition to removing the chance of a data breach caused by key exposure, the fact that the key is not required to be kept elsewhere also eliminates this necessity.

14. Forward secure public key Encryption with keyword search for outsourced cloud storage

Cloud computing is a self-driven word that offers information outsourcing services without contention, alleviating customers of the pressures of nearby storage problems. Many industries, such as the military, hospitals, businesses, colleges, and so on, already employ cloud computing to store enormous volumes of data or information. The client may seek permission to view the files or information from the cloud. Generally speaking, there are three types of information: confidential, public, and personal. The infrastructure that stores all of the data on the cloud belongs to someone else. It is never simple to trust outside cloud service suppliers with critical data. Even the largest cloud market players assert that security is a shared responsibility between the customer and the business. The customer should consider how critical it is for the encryption to be robust in order to restrict people from reading data saved in the cloud. One of the many issues that arise from cloud data storage is information security. To solve these problems, numerous algorithms were created. Unfortunately, securing a sizable chunk of the cloud with a single computation or technique is ineffective. By utilising cryptographic techniques, security problems are reduced in this study effort. In addition, networking, server, and storage are all merged so at infrastructure level in cloud computing. This research project suggests employing cryptographic techniques to store data safely in the cloud.

18. Remote data integrity checking with a designated verifier while preserving identity-based privacy

The authenticity of outsourced data may be effectively checked using the remote data possession checking method, which can be classified into both private and public verification. Public verification can be verified by any cloud user, however, private verification can only be verified by the data owner. However, In the majority of real-world scenarios, the data owner anticipates that just a specific verifier will be able to carry out integrity-checking duties and that the verifier won't be able to learn anything about the data. Yan et al. suggest a remote data possession verification scheme with a designated validator to make sure that only the designated verifier can guarantee the data's integrity and that others cannot. However, this strategy makes use of public-key technology and disregards privacy-related concerns. To overcome these shortcomings, we propose an identity-based remote data possession checking method that fulfills the data owner's demand to select a unique verifier. This method also employs a Merkle hash tree for dynamic data updating and a randomized integer for blind data integrity verification that protects user privacy. Our method can be used to get around the public key infrastructure's burdensome certificate administration. We showed that our system is secure using the computing Diffie-Hellman assumptions and the discrete optimization assumption. Our plan is practical and effective in practical contexts, as shown by conceptual analysis and experimental results.

19. Machine Learning Based Network Intrusion Detection For Cyber Security

Machine Learning-based systems act on flow features derived through exporting flow procedures. The notable emergence of Machine Learning and Deep Learning (DL) based reports presuppose that the flow of information, such as the average packet capacity, is gleaned from every packet. On common devices, However, when packet sampling is unavoidable, flow exporters are frequently used in practice. Since the flow of information is derived from a sampled group of the packets rather than the entire traffic stream, the usefulness of Machine Learning-based results with the use and existence of such samplings is still up for debate. In this study, we are going to investigate in what ways the effectiveness and performance of these ML-based are affected by packet sampling. Our suggested evaluation method is resistant to various flow export stage settings, in contrast to earlier studies. Hence, it can provide a robust evaluation even in the presence of sampling.

20. A comparative overview of Ayurveda and Homeopathy with special reference to efficiency and limitation

This review article compares and contrasts Ayurveda and Homeopathy, two alternative systems of medicine that have been practiced for centuries. Ayurveda is an ancient Indian system of medicine that focuses on the balance between the mind, body, and spirit to promote overall health and wellness. Homeopathy, on the other hand, is a system of medicine developed in the late 18th century that uses highly diluted substances to stimulate the body's natural healing processes. The article presents a comprehensive review of the literature, discussing the efficiency and limitations of both Ayurveda and Homeopathy. While both systems have been found to be effective in treating various illnesses, Ayurvedic treatments can be time-consuming and require a significant lifestyle change, while Homeopathy has been criticized for its lack of scientific evidence to support its effectiveness. Therefore, patients should consult with a healthcare professional before choosing between Ayurveda and Homeopathy to ensure they receive the most appropriate treatment for their condition.

25. An Insight into the Sri Lankan economic crises

Due to years of economic mismanagement, poor administration, and bad policy decisions, Sri Lanka is presently going through one of its most crucial periods in history. Outside forces including the COVID-19 epidemic and Russia's invasion of Ukraine have also exacerbated the nation's issues, leading to its worst-ever crisis in 2022. Now, Sri Lanka is dealing with a number of issues, such as food insecurity, jeopardised livelihoods, and growing safety concerns. Everyone from all walks of life have been affected by the devastation caused by this catastrophe, but the poorest and most defenceless groups have been impacted the hardest. Sri Lanka routinely experiences natural disasters brought on by climate change, which exacerbates the already precarious position. These problems have broad repercussions, especially for weaker households and communities that suffer disproportionately from the current crisis. To solve these issues, immediate action must be made to guarantee enough food supply, stabilise markets, and assist impacted people.

Many people seek to educate themselves financially with the goal of saving money and taking advantage of financial products such as easy access to credit, profits gained in favorable circumstances, planning for retirement, and the ease of organizing property or land purchases, among other things. This goal is usually not met or only partly met due to a lack of financial literacy. As a result, we decided to conduct a study into how financially literate the Indian people are and whether financial literacy has anything to do with a person's financial decisions. The purpose of the study was to determine how financial education, financial behavior, financial attitude, and financial awareness affect investment decisions among the residents of Mumbai, India. This study was carried out through sampling, and structured questionnaires were used to acquire primary information.

27. Image classification of human action recognition using transfer learning in PyTorch

Over the years, deep learning models have been applied to human action recognition (HAR). due to the enormous amount of labeled data needed to train deep learning models, there has been a significant delay in the absolute development of these models. Data collection in sectors like HAR is challenging, and human labeling is expensive and time-consuming. The current approaches mainly rely on manual data gathering and accurate data labeling, which is carried out by human administration. This frequently leads to a slow and prone to human bias labeling data collection method. To solve these issues, we offered a novel approach to the current data collection techniques [1]. It is generally used that (CNN) is among machine learning models. Since Yann Lecun created this context in 1988, image identification has greatly improved. Transfer learning in image classification has simplified the process of training new models from the beginning and has reduced the number of data points that need to be processed, it was used in this project to classify human actions.

28. A method to detect diseased plant leaves using image processing in MATLAB

In the present World scenario, agricultural farming plays a crucial role as most of people depend on it. But in the current scenario, farmers are finding it hard as the plant leaves are being affected by various diseases in the yield. Tracking plant health and finding parasites for the good crop is essential to lessen disease spread and facilitate effective management practices. In order to bring down this problem and to increase the productivity of the crop, we have put forward a technique for detecting diseased leaves rather than examining them manually. Manual monitoring of leaf disease do not give satisfactory result as naked eye observation is an old method that consumes much time for disease recognition and also needs expertise, hence it is non-effective. In view of this, we introduced a modern technique to find out diseases related to leaves. To overcome the limitations of traditional eye observations, we used a digital image processing technique for fast and accurate disease detection of plant leaves. In our proposed system there exists a software solution for the automatic detection of plant leaf diseases using MATLAB software. The proposed approaches involve image pre-processing and feature extraction. The research work carried out has the potential to be used as an effective tool for the early detection and diagnosis of plant leaf diseases, which aids farmers to take preventive measures to reduce crop loss due to diseases infecting the crop and aids in enhancing economic growth.

29. Wave Energy Convertor Technology

Ocean contains energy in the form of waves and tidal currents. Both can be used to produce electricity. Differential heating of the earth results in pressure variations in the atmosphere, which causes winds to be generated. Winds transfer some of their energy to the water when they pass over the surface of open bodies of water, resulting in the production of waves. The quantity of energy transferred and the magnitude of the ensuing wave are determined by the following factors: a) wind speed, b) wind speed over time, and c) wind distance. Wave energy conversion devices must generate a system of responding forces in which two or more bodies move relative to each other while at least one body interacts with the waves in order to extract this energy. A system like this can be designed to work with a variety of waves. Energy is extracted directly from surface waves or pressure variations below the surface via wave power devices. Generators store the energy taken from the waves. Offshore and onshore systems can both turn wave energy into electricity.

31. Performance evaluation of Kubernetes cluster federation using Kubefed

We have entered the multi-cloud and hybrid age. The inevitable trend in cloud computing is application-oriented multi-cloud and multi-cluster architecture. Today's cloud applications must abide by a wide range of laws and rules. It is doubtful that a single cluster can follow all the rules. The scope of compliance for each cluster is decreased by the multiple cluster technique. We can move workloads between Kubernetes suppliers to benefit from new features and costs. This paper aims to describe an integration between multiple clusters running on the same cloud and evaluate their performance based on the Kubernetes Cluster Federation system. Some experimental evaluations were carried out with this goal in mind (Cloud Evaluation Experiment Methodology – CEEM) to monitor system resource behavior and availability, including network, disk, CPU, and memory. The test environment consists of a manually deployed Kubernetes cluster that was created. Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS) is the Cloud service provider considered. The Cluster Federation was performed using the Kubernetes Cluster Federation (KubeFed).

Sebaceous horn is an erupted cornified dermal nodular lesion that constituted of hyperkeratotic material. It is an unusual cutaneous lesion that is also termed as cornu cutaneum. These are found in areas like scalp, face, neck, and peripheral limbs exposed to solar radiation. Mostly these lesions are benign but underlying pre-malignant or malignant components are also encountered. We present an interesting and a rare case of sebaceous horn in 66-year male who presented to our out-patient department with an animal horn like cutaneous lesion for last 2 years. A 2-2.5 cm, brownish coloured, vertical cone shaped like horny projection was noted on the dorsal aspect of his left forearm. Because of having malignant potential, it is better to excise widely the horny lesion with a rim of 1 cm normal skin. Patient was operated as a day care procedure where wide local excision was performed taking 1cm rim of normal skin margin around the nodular lesion and sent for histopathological reporting. Histopathology report shown the lesion to have core of inspissated squamous epithelial debris material with peripheral rim of dead keratin or hyperkeratosis with adjacent normal skin. No malignant cells were found.

35. Pedelec-power assist bicycle

In India, like developing countries, is highly dependent on a suitable, flexible, and economical or budget transport system. In India, with this technological upgrade, the number of people using two wheelers is gradually increasing, in 2016, the maximum use of two wheelers in India was 31%, but now it is around 55% and more. The gradual increase in this consumption is now suffering from the cost of fuel and the lack of power, which is limited and cannot be generated. The enormous use of these vehicles leads to environmental impacts as well as carbon emissions. So, in this article, we try to offer a solution to the above problems through our project, which is the "PEDELEC-Power Assist Bike". In this project, we design a bicycle that is a traditional electric booster (EPB) using a proportional booster strategy. The ratio is usually set to 1:1, meaning the motor will provide the same amount of assistance as the amount of human torque. The main goal of this project is to design a motor and generator set with dual charge and discharge batteries with suitable controllers that will provide sustainable energy and also a smaller battery capacity will help us travel longer distances.

43. Removal of turbidity and total dissolved solids by using natural and artificial coagulants

Turbidity is the measure of the relative clarity of a liquid. It is an optical characteristic of water and is a measurement of the amount of light that is scattered by material in the water when a light is shined through the water sample. The higher the intensity of scattered light, the higher the turbidity. Turbidity in the water creates both aesthetic and health issues. Surface water treatment plants remove particles because they can cause objectionable appearances, tastes, and odours and can interfere with disinfection. A wide range of natural coagulants, such as moringa seeds, banana peel, jatropha curcas, cassava peel starch, watermelon, pawpaw, beans, nirmali seeds, and okra have been studied previously. Natural coagulants in powder forms are usually added directly to wastewater. The most commonly used inorganic chemical coagulants in water treatment. Aluminium sulfate Al2(SO4)3 is the most commonly used chemical for coagulation in wastewater treatment. Additional commonly used coagulants include sodium aluminate NaAlO₂, ferric sulphate Fe2(SO4)3, and ferric chloride FeCl3. Wastewater can be destructive for the public because it contains a variety of organic and inorganic substances, biological substances, toxic inorganic compounds, and the presence of toxic materials. The coagulant chemicals and their associated products are resourceful but these may change the characteristics of water. The wastewater can be harmful for local uses, so we are going to treat this wastewater by removing turbidity and total dissolved solids by using natural & artificial coagulants. In this process, the wastewater will be treated for other uses like in construction for mixing with cement or curing and other works.

48. Experimental study of the effect of primary nozzle position on the performance of jet ejector

In this work the effect of primary nozzle positions relative to the mixing section in an ejector on the performance of the air ejector are investigated. Air jet ejector and four types of nozzles are designed and constructed. Two nozzles are circular and the other two are squared. Then an apparatus is designed and constructed to achieve the ejector performance (enhancing the entrainment ratio). Due to the rapid decreasing of air flow rate coming from air reservoir of the compressor to the ejector, a data acquisition system is used to record different measurements such as pressure, temperature and velocity at different locations on the test apparatus. The convergent nozzle can be moved to study the effect of nozzle positions on the ejector performance. Tests are carried out at three different positions for each nozzle, the distance between it was equal. At the 1st position, the exit section of the primary nozzle is located just at the inlet plane of the mixing section of the ejector. At the 2nd position, the exit section of the primary nozzle is shifted 8.5 mm before the inlet plane of the mixing section. For the 3rd position, the exit section of the primary nozzle is shifted 17 mm before the inlet plane of the mixing section. From detailed analysis of experimental results, it is found that: The performance of the ejector is affected by the nozzle position, and the optimum position which achieves a maximum entrainment ratio for all nozzles is at position (1), (nearest position to mixing section of the ejector. But the entrainment ratio increases when the nozzle is placed at position (2) in case of the small squared nozzle. Position (3) is the worst position for all nozzle and achieves minimum entrainment ratio. Regardless the position of the primary nozzle, there is a strong relation between the nozzle exit area and the performance of the ejector, i.e. decreasing of primary nozzle exit area increases ejector entrainment ratio.

50. Clinical audit on diagnosis and management of hypertension in a primary medical care setting in Sri Lanka

Hypertension has been a leading cause of premature deaths worldwide and it is more prominent in low and middle-income countries and rising. Proper diagnosis and management of hypertension can reduce complications and disability. A new protocol to manage hypertension in primary medical care centers was introduced by American Heart Association to reduce the cost of treatment while managing the patients properly. It was introduced in PMCs of Kalutara district in Sri Lanka with the help of the Resolve to save lives organization. This clinical audit was conducted in 3 PMCs with 163 participants to identify lapses before scaling up the project to more PMCs. It was found that the mean time taken from the first BP measurement to the second measurement in the 140-159/90-99mmHg group (Group A) was 1.07 weeks (SD=2.04 weeks) while the protocol requires measuring the second value between 2 to 4 weeks. Out of basic investigations, FBS and Serum Cholesterol levels were done in 56.4% and 38% of the participants respectively while ECG and UFRs completed in the study were very less. Further, 55.4% (n=87) of the participants aged 80 years or less were managed with 2 drugs according to the protocol while only 20% (n=1) of the patients aged more than 80 years were managed with 1 drug according to the protocol. Only 22 (45.8%) out of 48 participants who required stepping up of drug management was correctly done. Furthermore, the variation between the 3 hospitals in results was, considerable. The requirement of training for healthcare workers in PMCs to standardise the management was emphasized while the resource allocation for laboratory services for investigations was highlighted after the study.

51. A perspective of the residents on the annoyances and problems of street trees in Visakhapatnam city, Andhra Pradesh, India.

Street trees are an integral component of urban resident’s life. The environmental, economic, and social benefits they provide to residential and commercial areas are crucial for the maintenance of healthy communities. Urban areas cannot function properly without street trees. Despite trees' many benefits, it is important to remember that if they are not properly planned, planted, and maintained, they can become a source of trouble, additional expense, and even danger. Since most of this study is conducted in the Visakhapatnam metropolitan city, it is unclear if these results may be generalized to other city communities or nations. A one-way ANOVA test is performed to see any significant difference in the overall opinion of each annoying factor given by the local neighborhood residents from different study areas in Visakhapatnam city. Generally, people like street trees and their surroundings, and six community respondents rated annoyances as more serious. According to questionnaire surveys, hidden traffic signs and preventing sunlight from entering homes are two of the greatest annoyances of street trees. Before proceeding to the next and final phase of the investigation, they will undoubtedly generate some preliminary ideas for potential responses. All of these must be completed so that suitable street trees can be incorporated into the final design in the future.

53. Assessment of Steering Knuckle by DFMAE Method

Steering knuckle is the main part of the steering and suspension system various link of suspension and steering are linked to it and depend on the steering knuckle. Therefore, it requires high precision, quality and durability. The strength component is always in demand for race car application. Earlier if the knuckle fails the design team used to modify the design part by trial and error method. Now we are using DFMAE method followed by experimental analysis. The two step process has been used for the same. First part involves modeling and analysis of steering knuckle by CATIA V5 R21 and ANSYS 16.0. The second step is experimental stress analysis by using strain gauge. Strain gauge is component which senses the stress acting on component and the give the result in form of stress vs time. In automotive suspension, the knuckle is the main part through the suspension wishbone link are connected and the suspension spring are on the wishbone. The hub and braking systems are mounted on the steering knuckle to complete the wheel assembly. The wheel and tyre assembly attach to the hub or spindle of the knuckle where the tire/wheel rotates while being held in a stable plane of motion by the knuckle/suspension assembly. Failure region were identified from the static and dynamic analysis and results compared to experimental analysis by using strain gauge. And this analysis carried out under all operating conditions.

58. Marz akyas khusytur rahem (polycystic ovarian disease): A review

Polycystic ovarian disease (PCOD) is a common and pervasive endocrine disorder with multiple phenotypes and varied presentations. It starts to appear at 15-25 years of age and it may take years for its clinical presentation to appear. The incidence of PCOD is 4-22%. The symptoms of PCOD include irregular periods, hirsutism, acne, obesity, etc. PCOD is observed as a lifestyle disorder associated with an increased risk of reproductive problems including infertility, recurrent miscarriage, endometrial cancer, late menopause, and metabolic aberrations including insulin resistance, type 2 diabetes mellitus, dyslipidemia, and cardiovascular diseases. Unani concept: The Unani word for PCOD is Marz Akyas Khusytur Rehm. Unani physicians have classified this disease under the following headings: obesity, phlegmatic diseases, amenorrhea, and liver disorders. Unani concept of PCOD is primarily based on the dominance of khilte Brigham (Phlegm). It has been given in Unani classical books that sue mizaj barid (Abnormal cold temperament) of the liver may lead to abnormal production of balgham (phlegm). Ibne Sena and majusi mentioned the causes of ehtebaas e tams(amenorrhea) are khilte Brigham, and sue mizaj barid of reham and same mufarrit (Obesity). Again khilte Brigham is one of the causes of obesity. Due to obesity narrowing of the lumen of blood vessels develops and reduces blood circulation and sue mizaj barid causes an increase in the viscosity of humors. Unani physicians have recommended regular induction of menstruation as one of the treatment modalities applied for women who have developed masculine features suggestive of PCOD. They have given a line of management based on correction of temperament, menstrual regulation by use of emmenagogue drugs, and the local application of herbs to reduce the severity of hair growth, acne, and hyperpigmentation due to PCOD.
