New AI detects heart failure with 100% accuracy

With the help pf Artificial Intelligence (AI), researchers have developed a neural network developed that can accurately identify congestive heart failure with 100% accuracy through analysis of just one raw electrocardiogram (ECG) heartbeat.

Congestive heart failure (CHF) is a chronic progressive condition that affects the pumping power of the heart muscles. Associated with high prevalence, significant mortality rates and sustained healthcare costs, clinical practitioners and health systems urgently require efficient detection processes.


The researchers have worked to tackle these important concerns by using Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN)- hierarchial neural networks highly effective in recognising patterns and structures in data.


We trained and tested the CNN model on large publicly available ECG datasets featuring subjects with CHF as well as healthy, non-arrhythmic hearts. Our model delivered 100% accuracy by checking just one heartbeat we are able to detect whether or not a person has heart failure, said the researcher.


The Prof. said, our model is also one of the 1st known to be able to identify the ECG's morphological features specifically associated to the severity of the condition.


The research drastically improves existing CHF detection methods typically focused on heart rate variability that, whilst effective, are time-consuming and prone to errors. Conversely, their new model uses a combination of advanced signal processing and machine learning tools on raw ECG signals, delivering 100% accuracy.


With approximately 26 million people worldwide affected by a form of heart failure, our research presents a major advancement on the current methodology, said the researcher.

6. Mix the pulp of one tomato with 2 tsp of fuller's earth and add 1 tsp of fresh mint paste and apply to your skin. It'll lighten your skin tone instantly.

7. Tomato contains an antioxidant called lycopene which acts as a natural sunscreen. So ditch that chemical sunscreen now and use tomatoes.

8. Make a pack by mixing 2 teaspoons of tomato pulp with 1 teaspoon of yogurt and apply to your face to prevent sunburn.

9. Grind tomatoes in a mixer with the seeds and add 1 teaspoon of sugar and apply it on your face or body to get rid of dead skin.

10. Take the juice of one cucumber and one tomato and strain well into an air-tight spray bottle and use it as a toner. Toner is more important than we think. 

11. Blend two whole lemons with peels along with two cubes of ice, 20 mint leaves, and 2 tomatoes in a blender. Tomato sugar scrub can be used to exfoliate, cleanse, de-tan and nourish the skin naturally.

12. Work As A Filling Food

As tomatoes have high water content, they work perfectly as filling food. Tomatoes, with their water content, moisturize our skin and keep it healthy and shiny.

14. Control Heart Rate

Being rich in potassium content, it gives about 237 mg of potassium which is useful for controlling heart rate and is helpful in preventing heart diseases and strokes.

15. Prevent Eye Diseases

The vitamins such as vitamin A, flavonoid B complex, thiamine, folates, niacin, etc. are also present in tomatoes that help cure skin and eye diseases.

16. High Blood Pressure
Tomatoes, with a powerful punch of minerals and nutrients, also help in safeguarding our body from high blood pressure and high cholesterol.

18. Protect From Free Radicals

Some of its flavonoid antioxidants, such as lycopene and zeaxanthin are best known to health specialists for their anti-free radical behavior.

19. Anti-Cancer

The antioxidant behavior of this vegetable also helps to prevent many unwanted reactions in the lungs, colon, and breasts that can tend to be cancerous. The antioxidants help in the treatment of cancer by preventing carcinogenic reactions in the body which stop by blocking free radicals from proceeding further.

20. Cell Repair And Muscle Building

It is a naturally rich source of protein, which is good for cell repair and muscle building.

21. Less Fat Content

Other basic nutrients include 4 grams of carbohydrates, 1 gram of protein, 18 calories and 0 grams of saturated fat. This vegetable can be eaten in good amounts due to the lower rate of calories in tomato.

22. Lower Cholesterol

Tomato seeds have no cholesterol. Thus, tomato seeds don’t add cholesterol to your diet. Tomato seeds are high in fiber; fiber is known to lower cholesterol. Tomato seeds also are rich sources of niacin (vitamin B3). Niacin has been used to lower cholesterol levels for many years.

23. Lower Blood Pressure

An Israelite researcher found that tomato seeds bring about a significant drop in blood pressure. The research was spread over eight weeks, where subjects ingested seeded tomatoes daily. It was noted that their blood pressure levels dropped. Tomato seeds and the berry itself contain an antioxidant called lycopene complex. This encourages a drop in both systolic (upper limit) and diastolic (lower limit) by approximately 5 points.

24. Prevent Blood Clots

Along with Vitamin C, lycopene and niacin, tomato flesh contains many health benefits. However, the seeds are surrounded by a mucus layer. The layer has been patented as Fruitlow by researchers. Fruitlow and lycopene both help unblock and prevent blood clots. Blood clotting is one of the major reasons for heart diseases today. Tomato seeds help prevent blood clots.

25. Anti-Inflammatory

Free radical production can activate the inflammatory compounds. Inflammatory compounds promote chronic ailments like atherosclerosis, osteoporosis, Alzheimer’s disease and cardiovascular disease. Tomato seeds’ lycopene and beta-carotene eradicate free radicals. This, in turn, helps arrest inflammation. Tomato seeds are thus an effective anti-inflammatory agent.

26. Prevent Acidosis

The human body is designed to maintain a pH of 7.365. However, our diet, irregular food patterns, and no exercise ensure that our body has a higher concentration of acid. This can cause acidosis, congestion, and reflux. Usually, the pH balance can be maintained by including calcium, potassium, magnesium, and sodium. Tomato flesh and seeds contain high amounts of these essential bases, and tomato seeds help us maintain the required pH balance and thus prevent acidosis.

27. Boost Immunity

Tomato seeds and flesh have been credited as immunity boosting agents. They help avoid common cold and influenza, especially for males. Carotenoid deficiency has been identified as the main culprit in these commonly occurring diseases. Low amounts of lycopene and beta-carotene have also been held responsible. Tomato seeds are excellent sources of the antioxidant lycopene and beta-carotene. Thus, they are effective immunity boosting agents.

28. Improves Eyesight

Tomatoes and their seeds contain high amounts of Vitamin A. Vitamin A has often been associated with excellent eyesight, and a deficiency of this vitamin causes night blindness. Tomato seeds thus help improve eyesight.

29. Act As A Stress Reliever

Tomato extract is often used in luxurious body massage oils to combat visible sign of stress on the skin. Tomato extract is also used in eye creams, which, along with other essential ingredients, leaves the eyes looking fresh and revitalized.

30. Perfect Astringent

The astringent properties of tomato make it an excellent choice for combination skin.
  • A pack made from mashed avocados and tomatoes soothes the skin and cleanses it thoroughly to give you a glowing complexion.
  • Apply this face pack and wash it off with lukewarm water after 20 to 30 minutes. Tomato contains natural oil reducing and astringent properties while avocado provides an antiseptic and moisturizing effect to the skin.

31. Fight Cellular Damage

Consumption of at least 16 milligrams of lycopene every day reduces the amount of free radicals in the body to give you a youthful skin. It fights cellular damage and reddening of the skin and also retains the moisture, thus preventing fine lines and wrinkles. This property of tomato makes it an amazing anti-aging product.

32. Natural Bleaching Agent

Tomato is considered as a natural bleaching agent and is very helpful in lightening the skin tone.
  • Prepare a face pack by mixing 1 teaspoon of oatmeal, 1 teaspoon of yogurt and 2 teaspoons of tomato pulp.
  • Apply it on the face and neck and leave it for 20 minutes. Oatmeal will gently exfoliate the skin, while yogurt and tomato will help to clear the blemishes. This improves the complexion.

33. Smooth Skin

Mix honey with tomato juice to make a thick paste. Apply it on the face and wash it off after 15 minutes to get a smooth and glowing skin.

34. Help Fight Hair Loss

Tomatoes are considered to be an excellent cure for hair loss. It is believed that application of tomato pulp on the scalp can prevent hair loss. Simply juice a tomato and apply the juice (along with the pulp) to your hair. Leave it on for 20 minutes and then rinse as usual. Repeat 3 times a week.

35. Condition Hair

Tomatoes are amazing natural conditioners coming straight from your kitchen. They provide natural shine to the hair and makes it soft and manageable.

Moisture often escapes from the scalp during winters, making the hair strands dry and brittle, leading to breakage. So make sure to keep your hair replenished with the help of tomatoes. Tomatoes help to lock the much-needed moisture in the hair to prevent it from dry.

37. Clears Hair Stains

Regular swimming often changes the color of the hair due to the high amount of chlorine present in the pool water. Tomato can be a great help to remove the stains from the hair. Apply pure tomato juice to the hair and leave it for 20 minutes. Rinse it off with water, followed by shampoo and conditioning. Tomato juice also acts as a soaking agent to remove odors. Apply freshly squeezed tomato juice on the scalp and massage your hair with it for a few minutes. Leave it for 30 minutes and then wash it off as usual.

A few tips to nourish your hair with for the upcoming season.

 Long hair can be more of a curse than a boon. Depending on the weather, our hair choses to behave in a strange and absurd manner. From flakes to rough ends, the winter season may be the most beautiful months, but it also brings troubles of their own. 

Don't use too much heat and if you do use a heat protect, condition it very well, shampoo it.

 1.Castor Oil: Known to enhance hair quality and ideal to clean your scalp during the winters, castor oil is perfect to add some thickness and luster to your hair. 

2.Coconut Oil: There's nothing better for your hair than heated coconut oil. To ensure the moisture retains, take a towel dipped in warm water and wrap it around your head.

3.Methi Seeds: One sureshot way to ensure great tresses is methi seeds. Soak some seeds over night and make a paste the next morning. The fragrance will be overwhelming but gently massage it over your scalp and leave it on for at least 20 minutes.

Amazing Benefits Of Pineapples For Skin, Hair, And Health

For most people, pineapple may only remind them of upside down cake or juice. But have you thought that it has many other wonderful benefits for our skin.

Let me enlighten you with a fact that not many of us know – a single pineapple is, in fact, a collection of multiple fruits; each one is the fruit of an individual blossom. Surprised? Well, it’s exotic and tropical in its own way!

 Benefits Of Pineapple For Skin

Let’s see how we can achieve smooth and shiny skin using pineapples, which are by the way great for getting away with epidermal troubles.

1. Effective Solution For Acne
This exotic flavor is like an elixir for our skin, especially to get rid of stubborn pimples. How? Well, the presence of vitamin C (thus, the tartness) in pineapples enables this fruit to be used, internally as well as externally, as a cure for acne and other inflammatory skin conditions . Also, bromelain, the anti-inflammatory enzyme in this fruit, boosts the healing power of vitamin C .So, the next time you fall prey to acne, try using pineapples.

2. Helps Your Skin Look Younger

I consume pineapple thrice a week (depending on the season), and I can proudly state that it has a positive effect on my skin. So, all you lovely ladies who want their skin to be even and supple, include this exotic fruit in your grocery list. Want to know the scientific reason why pineapples make our skin awesome? Well, this fruit gives the collagen synthesis in your body a boost. The higher the collagen synthesis is, the firmer and more flexible your skin will be. Plus, the added nourishment comes from the presence of amino acids and vitamin C, which ensure that the damaged cells and tissues are repaired quickly . You can see instant effects after applying freshly prepared pineapple juice on your face and washing it off using tap water after 10 minutes. Do tell me how it worked for you!

3. Natural Exfoliating Agent

In order to exfoliate your skin, you can use freshly crushed pineapple wedges (4). This particular surface has a rough texture that eliminates the dead skin and accentuates blood flow. This, in turn, makes your skin look brighter. Isn’t it just awesome?

4. Get Rid Of Those Cracks On Your Feet

Another of the most common problems that make us depend on those commercial creams. But, pineapple skin is the most inexpensive (well, if we take off the price of pineapple), yet effective method to make them vanish. The exfoliating property of pineapple, along with its collagen synthesizing nature, makes it an excellent natural scrub for your feet. It helps in sloughing off the flaky, calloused skin of the feet, leaving them smooth, soft, and pretty. The inflammation and swelling, triggered by the cracks, also get relieved (5).

5. Softens And Strengthens Nails

Have you thought why your nails look dry and brittle? No? Blame vitamins A and B. The lack of them in the body is the main culprit. You do not need any over-the-counter multivitamin pills to ease this condition, though! Just use pineapple. You can even prepare a nail softening lotion at your home using pineapple juice.
You Will Need
  • 1 egg yolk
  • 1 tablespoon fresh pineapple juice

How Often Should You Do This
You can do this treatment daily before sleeping, and see the amazing shine on your nails the next morning. Wow!

If you’re allergic to lemon juice, do not try this treatment.

Dry skin looks dull and unattractive, doesn’t it? But the blazing summer heat and pollution do not help our cause. Pineapple to the rescue!

Here's why some women are unable to get pregnant!

  Fertility problems are becoming a common issue among married women with many young couples having trouble conceiving or sustaining a pregnancy.

Now, researchers have uncovered a new insight into why some females have difficulty getting pregnant, a finding that could give new hope to women struggling to conceive.
 
They found that endometriosis - a chronic condition affecting around 10 per cent of women - may be the reason behind their difficulty in getting pregnant.

Endometriosis -- chronic abdominal pain, irregular periods, and lowered fertility -- is strongly associated with infertility and up to 50 per cent of women who require infertility treatment have it, the study said.

In order to become pregnant, a woman must produce a mature egg, which then is released to be fertilised.

However, the study found that eggs in women who have endometriosis are affected by a very hostile uterine environment that lowers fertility.

In women with endometriosis, ability of the egg to mature gets blocked as it suffers serious damage by exposure to follicular fluid and the egg quality gets severely compromised, the researchers explained.

"The study found that fluid from the follicles of patients with endometriosis was found to block egg maturation by generating free-radical chemicals called Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS) in the egg, which damage their DNA. This damage caused the egg not to mature, and hence it could not be fertilised," added Simon Lane, doctoral student at the University of Southampton.

More research is now needed to investigate whether such damage caused by endometriosis is treatable or preventable, Lane said.
According to researchers, the effects of endometriosis on eggs could be prevented by antioxidants, as they can decrease ROS levels and help eggs to mature.

Ovulation problem is the most common cause of infertility in women. However, there are a number of things that may be keeping them from getting pregnant – blocked fallopian tubes, uterine trouble, cervical issues, hormonal problems, etc.

Besides, certain factors may put a woman at higher risk of infertility. These include – poor diet, smoking, age, alcohol use, stress, being overweight or underweight.

The paper was published in the journal Scientific Reports.
