An educational infographic titled 'Ayurveda in Cancer Management' that illustrates a multidisciplinary integrative medicine approach. The central graphical element is a cross-sectional illustration of a tumor microenvironment, depicting a cluster of irregularly shaped pinkish-red neoplastic cells interspersed with small cyan-blue immune or signaling components. Black directional arrows radiate from this central mass toward surrounding rectangular boxes, signifying various therapeutic interventions. The described treatments include: 'Rasayana Chikitsa' (immunotherapy and rejuvenation), 'Shamana Chikitsa' (oral medications), 'Dhatwagni and Vyadhipratyanik Chikitsa' (antitumor therapies), 'Daivavyapashraya Chikitsa' (spiritual/divine therapy including Yoga and Pranayama), and 'Satvavajaya' (dietary and lifestyle counseling). At the bottom right, botanical illustrations including a ginger rhizome (Zingiber officinale) and medicinal leaves are shown, representing the phytochemical basis of these treatments. The diagram serves to categorize Ayurvedic cancer management procedures for healthcare providers and students interested in integrative oncology and complementary therapies.

This pathophysiology diagram illustrates the biogenesis and release mechanisms of three major types of extracellular vesicles (EVs): exosomes, microvesicles, and apoptotic bodies. The diagram is divided into three sections from left to right. The first section shows the endosomal pathway for exosome formation, beginning with plasma membrane invagination to form an early endosome, which matures into a multivesicular body (MVB) containing intraluminal vesicles; these are released as exosomes via exocytosis when the MVB fuses with the cell surface. The second section depicts the formation of microvesicles through the direct outward budding and pinching off of the plasma membrane. The third section illustrates the formation of apoptotic bodies, which are larger, irregularly shaped remnants resulting from the extensive blebbing and fragmentation of the plasma membrane during programmed cell death (apoptosis). The illustration highlights key morphological differences in size and origin, identifying exosomes as the smallest vesicles derived from internal compartments, microvesicles as intermediate-sized surface buds, and apoptotic bodies as the largest, heterogeneous fragments of a dying cell.

This medical technology diagram illustrates the IEEE 802.15.6 Channel Models (CM1-CM4) within a Wireless Body Area Network (WBAN) for remote patient monitoring. The visual features a human silhouette with two distinct sensor types: On-body sensors (represented by blue hexagonal icons) located on the head and waist, and Implant sensors (red hexagonal icons) situated within the torso and abdominal regions. The diagram identifies four communication pathways: CM1 (red dash-dot line) represents implant-to-implant or implant-to-body surface communication; CM2 (solid blue line) depicts on-body sensor-to-implant communication, spanning from the head to the chest; CM3 (dotted black line) shows on-body to on-body communication across the waist; and CM4 (dashed green line) illustrates off-body communication between a waist-mounted central node and an external gateway device. This figure is used in medical informatics and biomedical engineering to conceptualize data transmission architectures for real-time physiological monitoring and chronic disease management.

This medical infographic illustrates the distribution of immune cell mass across the human body, totaling approximately 1.2 kg. A central anatomical diagram is surrounded by waffle charts for specific organs and systems, where each square represents 1 gram of immune cells. The charts are color-coded to identify various cell types including T cells, B cells, Plasma cells, NK cells, Mast cells, Neutrophils, Eosinophils, Basophils, Macrophages, Monocytes, and Dendritic cells. Key findings highlighted include the Bone Marrow (400g) as the largest reservoir, dominated by Neutrophils, followed by the Lymphatic System (300g), which is primary composed of T and B Lymphocytes. Significant macrophage populations are visualized in the Lungs (120g) and Liver (110g). Other categorized regions include the Skin (80g), Gastrointestinal (GI) tract (40g), Blood (10g), and 'Others' (140g). This diagram serves as an educational tool for understanding quantitative immunology and the specialized tissue residency of different leukocyte lineages.
| Dosha | Elements | Governs | When Imbalanced |
|---|---|---|---|
| Vata | Air + Space | Movement - blood flow, nerve impulses, breathing, elimination | Dryness, scaling, loss of tissue; mental/nervous/digestive disorders; atopic dermatitis, photoaging |
| Pitta | Fire + Water | Metabolism - digestion, transformation, body temperature, inflammation | Blood toxicity, inflammation, infection; acne, psoriasis, rosacea, fever |
| Kapha | Water + Earth | Structure - cohesion, lubrication, collagen, tissue hydration | Excess mucus, weight gain, oedema, fibrosis; hypertrophic scars, scleroderma, lung disease |
| Dhatu | Tissue |
|---|---|
| Rasa | Plasma/lymph |
| Rakta | Blood/red blood cells |
| Mamsa | Muscle |
| Meda | Fat/adipose tissue |
| Asthi | Bone |
| Majja | Bone marrow/nerve tissue |
| Shukra | Reproductive tissue |
| Therapy | Method |
|---|---|
| Vamana | Therapeutic vomiting (clears Kapha) |
| Virechana | Purgation/laxatives (clears Pitta from intestines) |
| Basti | Medicated enemas (the most important, clears Vata) |
| Nasya | Nasal administration of medications (clears head/neck) |
| Raktamokshana | Blood purification (bloodletting or herbal teas) |
Note on herb safety: Ayurvedic herbal products are regulated as dietary supplements rather than drugs in most Western countries. Heavy metal contamination has been a concern historically, though reputable companies now perform third-party testing. Herb-drug interactions are possible and must be assessed before combining with conventional medicines.
| Dosha | Key Diseases |
