Healing Hearts with Plants: Indonesia’s Breakthrough in Cardiac Care

-
In the heart of Tangerang, Indonesia, a quiet revolution is taking place—one that’s reshaping the future of cardiac care, not with new drugs or surgeries, but with food. At Bethsaida Hospital, Professor Dasaad Mulijono and his team have pioneered a bold, evidence-driven shift in how heart disease is treated. Their approach? A Plant-Based Diet (PBD) integrated into traditional medical care. And the results are nothing short of extraordinary. From Pills to Plants: What’s Changing? Since implementing the PBD program nearly seven years ago, the hospital’s Cardiology Centre has seen over 3,000 patients benefit from a holistic, nutrition-first approach to chronic conditions. Patients with high blood pressure are achieving normal readings— without medication . Diabetics are coming off insulin. LDL cholesterol is plummeting. Heart failure patients are regaining energy and function. Even early signs of atherosclerosis —the silent buildup in arteries—are being reversed. These aren’t ...

Decoding a Rare Vascular Puzzle: Anastomotic Hemangioma of the Renal Sinus

-
  In the intricate world of renal pathology, few conditions spark as much diagnostic curiosity as Anastomotic Hemangioma (AH) —a rare, benign vascular tumor that mimics malignancy. A recent case report published in the Journal of Biomedical Research & Environmental Sciences (JBRES) offers valuable insight into this uncommon entity and the importance of careful diagnosis. Understanding Anastomotic Hemangioma (AH) AH is a recently recognized subtype of hemangioma, characterized by unique anastomosing capillary vessels that resemble splenic sinusoids. Though benign in nature, its imaging and histological features can closely resemble those of angiosarcoma , a highly aggressive malignancy, often leading to misdiagnosis. A Clinical Snapshot: The Case at Hand The case describes an 85-year-old man diagnosed incidentally with a renal mass during an abdominal ultrasound. Despite the absence of genitourinary symptoms, imaging through CT and MRI revealed a suspicious lesion in t...

From Galaxies to Human Beings: A Shared Evolutionary Blueprint?

-
Is there a hidden thread that connects the cosmos, the Earth, and the human body? A bold and thought-provoking study by Henghua Yan , published in the Journal of Biomedical Research & Environmental Sciences (JBRES) , suggests exactly that. 🔍 The Core Idea Yan introduces a fascinating hypothesis: that the formation of the solar system , the mid-oceanic ridge of the Atlantic Ocean , and human development in the womb all follow the same underlying law of evolution— a pattern of expansion from one central point outward . This pattern, he proposes, is not coincidental but indicative of a universal structural law at work. 🧠 The “Matryoshka” Model of Evolution. Inspired by Russian nesting dolls (Matryoshka), the author proposes that nature evolves in nested, self-similar layers , whether on a planetary scale or within the human body. Some of the parallels discussed in the paper include: The Solar System : From the Sun outward to Pluto, a directional and size-based e...

The Future of Pulmonary Hypertension Diagnosis: Can AI Personalize Early Detection?

-
  By JBRES Editorial Team Published: June 2025 Pulmonary hypertension (PH)—a progressive and often fatal condition characterized by elevated pressure in the pulmonary arteries—remains a diagnostic challenge due to its nonspecific symptoms and delayed detection. But what if we could catch it sooner? What if your smartwatch or a cloud-based algorithm could help flag warning signs before your doctor even suspects a problem? Welcome to the evolving world of AI-powered personalized medicine , where artificial intelligence isn't just an add-on to healthcare—it’s poised to transform the early detection of complex diseases like PH.   🔍 Why Early Diagnosis Matters PH is often diagnosed late, when irreversible damage has already occurred. By the time symptoms like fatigue or breathlessness become serious enough for testing, the disease may have already progressed to a life-threatening stage. Early diagnosis isn’t just ideal—it’s essential. This is where AI-based tools st...

From Grief to Giving: The Hidden Power of Milk Donation after Perinatal Loss

-
  From Grief to Giving: The Hidden Power of Milk Donation after Perinatal Loss The journey of motherhood doesn’t always unfold as expected. For mothers experiencing perinatal loss —whether through miscarriage, stillbirth, or the death of a newborn—the emotional toll is profound. Yet, in the midst of sorrow, some women find healing in an unexpected place: donating breast milk . A groundbreaking study conducted across 34 Italian Human Milk Banks (HMBs) sheds light on how milk donation after loss is being offered, perceived, and implemented. This pioneering work opens a conversation on grief, healing, and the role of compassionate care in neonatal settings.   🍼 Why Milk Donation after Loss Matters Breast milk is known as the "liquid gold" of infant nutrition—critical for babies, especially those born prematurely or with medical needs. But for bereaved mothers, lactation doesn't stop when life does. Their bodies continue to produce milk, often without guidance on...

Unveiling the Role of Biomarkers in Breast Cancer: A Comparative Study on Biological and Molecular Factors

-
Breast cancer is one of the most complex and heterogeneous diseases, necessitating an in-depth understanding of its biological and molecular factors. The recent study published in the Journal of Biomedical Research & Environmental Sciences (JBRES) titled "Comparative Study of Biomarkers Dependent on Biological, Molecular Factors and Their Clinical Significance in Breast Cancer Treatment" explores the crucial role of biomarkers in improving prognosis, guiding therapeutic decisions, and predicting patient outcomes. Key Highlights of the Study This research provides a comprehensive evaluation of traditional and emerging biomarkers, including: 🔬 Ki-67 Index – A key marker for tumor proliferation, influencing treatment decisions. 🔬 Estrogen (ER) and Progesterone Receptors (PR) – Predictive factors for hormonal therapy efficacy. 🔬 Her2 and cerb-2 Expression – Indicators of aggressive tumor behavior and targeted therapy potential. 🔬 BRCA1 and BRCA2 Genet...
