Recent attention has shifted towards herbal therapies as potential adjuncts or alternatives in NASH management, given their anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and phospholipid-controlling characteristics. This research study attempted to assess critically existing literature on the efficacy of herbal interventions while managing NASH. The main goal was to assess the possible medicinal advantages of different herbs, highlight their mechanisms of action, and identify gaps in current research to guide future studies. A systematic review of peer-reviewed articles using databases, like PubMed, Scopus, and Google Scholar, was conducted. It included studies that investigated the effects of herbal extracts (e.g., silymarin, curcumin, berberine) on NASH-related outcomes, such as liver function, fibrosis, lipid metabolism, and inflammatory markers. The review identified several herbs with promising therapeutic effects on NASH. Silymarin showed consistent improvements in liver enzymes and fibrosis markers. Curcumin and berberine were effective in reducing inflammation of the liver and oxidative damage. However, the heterogeneity in research designs, dosages, and outcome measures has limited the generalizability of findings. Herbal therapies hold potential as complementary treatments for NASH, with evidence supporting their role in improving liver function and reducing inflammation. To prove their safety and effectiveness, however, greater sample numbers and longer follow-up times are required in standardised clinical studies.</p>","PeriodicalId":93925,"journal":{"name":"Cardiovascular & hematological disorders drug targets","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-03-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143665744","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Personalized treatment or personalized cardiology for cardiovascular disorders is an emerging medicine system for related patients. Personalized cardiology is solely based on genomics and proteomics; molecular diagnostics and biomarkers of the cardiovascular system link diagnosis with therapy. Bioinformatics is useful in CVD risk stratification and might improve risk-estimating algorithms. Personalized cardiology involves 3D printing, pharmacotherapy, surgery, lifestyle modifications, and combinations thereof. Understanding the pathology of CVD and identifying causative factors at the individual level can provide opportunities for developing personalized medicine. Since it offers novel avenues for diagnosing, preventing, and treating CVD, molecular genetics has made a substantial contribution to the field of molecular cardiology. Nonetheless, there are still a lot of obstacles to overcome from the standpoints of science and policy. These obstacles can be avoided using evidence-based procedures, clinical applications, biomarker-based detection techniques, comprehensive concepts, and understanding. Targeted therapies may be developed as a result of improved disease classification and a better knowledge of the individual differences in pathology. Cardiovascular disorders, like hypertension, angina, or ischemic heart, a condition of reduced blood flow to the heart, coronary artery disease or damaged blood vessels, myocardial infarction or resisted blood flow to the myocardium, and cardiac arrhythmia or irregular cardiac cycles are the primary targets for personalized cardiology.

However, studies on the combined effect of coffee and honey on blood pressure, heart rate, and blood glucose level are lacking.</p><p><strong>Objective: </strong>The objective of this study is to determine whether a three-day consumption of honey- sweetened coffee will significantly alter the systolic blood pressure (SBP), diastolic blood pressure (DBP), mean arterial pressure (MAP), heart rate (HR), and fasting blood glucose (BG) levels in young, healthy female adults.</p><p><strong>Methods: </strong>Thirty participants studying at the University of Uyo, aged 18 to 26 years, were randomly assigned to three groups: control, coffee, and honey-sweetened coffee groups with 10 subjects each. The control group was given 250 mL of warm water, the coffee group was given 2.25 g of coffee dissolved in 250 mL of hot water, and the honey-sweetened coffee group was given 2.25 g of coffee with 20 mL of honey dissolved in 250 mL of hot water for three consecutive days. Before the start of the experiment, the subjects were asked to rest by sitting comfortably for 15 minutes. Baseline measurements of blood pressure, heart rate, and blood glucose were taken and recorded before the consumption of the assigned beverage. Follow-up measurements were taken at 15, 30, 45, and 60 minutes after consumption for blood pressure and heart rate and 30 and 60 minutes for blood glucose level. This procedure was repeated for three days.</p><p><strong>Results: </strong>The results showed no significant changes in systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure, mean arterial pressure, heart rate, and blood glucose level in the coffee and honey-sweetened coffee groups compared to the control group.</p><p><strong>Conclusion: </strong>The findings of this study revealed that honey-sweetened coffee has no acute effect on blood pressure, heart rate, and blood glucose level in healthy female individuals. It can, therefore, be concluded that honey-sweetened coffee has a neutral effect on these physiological parameters, but a more elaborate study is highly recommended.</p>","PeriodicalId":93925,"journal":{"name":"Cardiovascular & hematological disorders drug targets","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-12-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142933963","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
