The research in this paper shows that all 4 WEPs (Wild Edible Plants) frequently consumed by the Semai have variable quantities of proximate composition and mineral composition .According to the study’s findings, these wild plants can be regarded as inexpensive and good sources of micronutrients necessary for health and well-being. They can also contribute substantially to dietary needs, especially in remote areas, because of their beneficial nutritional qualities.
The study shows that resource variables are relevant for understanding the situation of cancer patients.

Factors associated with commencement or lack thereof are explored; for example, people with indicators of low engagement with HIV care (eg, not on antiretroviral therapy) were more likely not to have commenced HCV direct-acting antiviral treatment)
This Article supports SDG 3 by providing the first comprehensive review of the global burden of hepatis B and C in people with tuberculosis, through a systematic review and meta-analysis including 127 studies.
