Abstract

Telemedicine refers to the use of telecommunications technology to diagnose and treat patients remotely, giving low-income areas access to high-quality healthcare. The first documented instance of telemedicine dates back to the early part of the 1900s, at which time an ECG was sent over a phone line. Telemedicine has advanced significantly in terms of technology and healthcare delivery since then. NASA and ISRO had a significant part in this. The establishment of the National Telemedicine Taskforce in 2005 by the Indian Health Ministry cleared the path for the accomplishment of several initiatives, including the ICMR-AROGYASREE, NeHA and VRCs. Family doctors benefit from telemedicine by having easy access to specialists and assistance in patient monitoring. Around the world, different telemedicine systems, such as store and forward, real-time, remote or self-monitoring, offer a range of educational, disease screening, disaster management and healthcare delivery and management services. Telemedicine may undoubtedly lessen the strain on the healthcare system to a significant level, even though it cannot solve every issue. Telemedicine has reshaped healthcare delivery, particularly for rural populations. By reducing travel, broadening access to specialists, supporting chronic disease management, and addressing professional shortages, it offers a promising solution to healthcare disparities. However, challenges like infrastructure limitations and technology literacy need ongoing attention to ensure equitable, long-term access for all.

Abstract

Sorghum is a valuable source of bioactive compounds with a variety of health benefits. Its bioactive components include phenolic acids, flavonoids, tannins, and dietary fiber, all of which contribute to its functional food properties. Some of the key bioactive compounds in sorghum and their health benefits: Sorghum contains high levels of phenolic acids, such as caffeic, p-coumaric, and ferulic acids. These compounds act as powerful antioxidants, helping to reduce oxidative stress in the body, which is linked to inflammation, cancer, and cardiovascular disease. Sorghum is particularly rich in flavonoids such as luteolin, apigenin, and their derivatives. These compounds are known for their anti-inflammatory, anticancer, and neuroprotective properties that help improve cardiovascular health by reducing the risk of plaque formation in the arteries. Certain varieties of sorghum, especially the pigmented ones, contain condensed tannins also known as proanthocyanidins. Sorghum is rich in both soluble and insoluble fiber. The dietary fiber in sorghum aids digestion, supports gut microbiome health, and contributes to better blood glucose control. Regular fiber intake may reduce the risk of colorectal cancer and aid in weight management. These long-chain alcohols are thought to help lower LDL cholesterol levels, which is beneficial for cardiovascular health. The polycosanols in sorghum have been found to improve lipid metabolism and may aid in weight management. Specific phytochemicals with antioxidant properties, such as phytic acid, polyphenols, tannins, and sterols, have been shown to reduce the incidence of chronic diseases and play a role beyond just food.
