Public Health and Integrated Medicine is a scholarly journal dedicated to the intersection of public health and integrative healthcare practices. The journal explores research, policies, and innovations that merge traditional medical practices with modern public health strategies to promote overall well-being. It covers a wide range of topics, including preventive care, lifestyle medicine, holistic health approaches, and the integration of complementary therapies into mainstream healthcare systems. The goal is to foster an interdisciplinary dialogue that supports a more comprehensive, patient-centered approach to health promotion and disease prevention.

Editorial Article | Volume: 2, Issue: 1 Published Date: May 14, 2026 Circulation, Computation, and the Journey from Inception to Insight Authors: Dr. Joe Perez* Abstract: The Quiet Genius of a System That Never Stops. Inside each human being, an intricate transport network works around the clock. It?s easy to think of the heart as the center of the action, but its beat is only the opening move. A remarkably long set of vessels sends blood to every corner of the body. The tiniest pathways, those slender capillaries that lace through tissues like microscopic footpaths, make up most of that distance. Through them, oxygen reaches cells, waste exits, hormones travel, and heat redistributes. The whole thing operates with a seamlessness that invites reflection. |

Research Article | Volume: 2, Issue: 1 Published Date: May 13, 2026 Artificial Intelligence in Family Medicine: Transforming Primary Care Through Augmented Intelligence Authors: Alireza R Azadi* and Omid Panahi Abstract: Family medicine is the cornerstone of accessible, continuous, and comprehensive healthcare. Yet primary care systems globally face unsustainable pressures from aging populations, rising chronic disease burden, and workforce shortages. Artificial intelligence (AI) offers a unique opportunity to augment not replace the family physician. This article provides a systematic overview of AI applications in family medicine: clinical documentation, differential diagnosis generation, risk stratification, medication safety, population health management, and patient communication. |

Research Article | Volume: 2, Issue: 1 Published Date: May 12, 2026 Authors: Alireza R Azadi* and Omid Panahi2 Abstract: Emergency medicine (EM) operates under unique constraints: high patient volume, clinical uncertainty, time pressure, and resource scarcity. Artificial intelligence (AI) offers transformative potential to support emergency physicians in triage, diagnostic reasoning, resuscitation guidance, and disposition decisions. This article provides a systematic review of AI applications validated in emergency settings from 2020 to 2026. We cover: machine learning for risk stratification (sepsis, cardiac arrest, pulmonary embolism, intracranial hemorrhage); deep learning for medical imaging interpretation (plain radiographs, CT, point-of-care ultrasound); natural language processing for chief complaint classification and clinical documentation; and real-time decision support for trauma and cardiac arrest. |

Research Article | Volume: 2, Issue: 1 Published Date: May 11, 2026 Authors: Dr. Rajiv D. Limbasiya PT, Ph.D*, Muskan Sarda, Janvi Beladiya, Hitanshi Kantriwala, Dhruvi Gajera and Tahir Saiyed Abstract: Background: The study examines the prevalence of disability among geriatric populations in urban and rural areas, addressing the associated sociodemographic factors. With the elderly population growing rapidly, understanding disability patterns and their determinants is crucial for healthcare planning and intervention strategies. Aims and objectives: The aim of the study is to evaluate disability among geriatric individuals residing in urban and rural areas of Surat. The primary objectives include assessing disability prevalence in both settings and comparing sociodemographic factors influencing geriatric disability. Secondary objectives involve examining differences in disability prevalence between urban and rural populations and identifying intervention strategies tailored to their needs. |
