Background and AimAnxiety, stress, and depressive disorders as common mental health problems have adverse effects in different populations. Holy Quran recitation and listening can help reduce these disorders. Therefore, the aim of this study was to investigate the effect of the Holy Quran on anxiety, stress, and depression.Materials and MethodsTo retrieve eligible studies, we searched PubMed, Web of Science, and Scopus databases. The articles were screened and chosen by three researchers. The selection of studies and the data extraction from the studies were done by three researchers using the data collection form based on the inclusion and exclusion criteria. Disagreements were resolved by consulting the third and fourth researchers. To report scoping review, we used the PRISMA cheklist.ResultsA total of 174 articles were retrieved from three databases and after removing irrelevant and repetitive articles, 15 articles were included in the current review. All studies were performed in Asia countries. Most studies have examined the effect of Holy Quran recitation and listening on anxiety (45%), stress (30%), and then depression (25%), respectively. The Beck Depression Inventory was the most widely used tool to evaluate the effect of Holy Quran recitation and listening on reducing anxiety, depression and stress. “Reducing the level of anxiety, stress, and depression” and “Simple, affordable, practical and cost‐effective treatment to reduce depression and anxiety” were the most important outcomes of holy Quran recitation.ConclusionsBased on the results of this study, Quran recitation and listening can be applied as a useful nonpharmacological treatment to reduce anxiety, stress, and depression.

“…The effect of oral intake of dill water, obtained from boiling the seeds, on the progression of labor and delivery was tested in 6 clinical studies. For all 6 studies, [41][42][43][44][45][46] compared with controls, there was increased progression of labor as measured by at least 1 indicator, such as length of labor phases, frequency of contractions, and extent of dilation and effacement. In contrast, most trials reported no significant alleviation of pain intensity.…”

Anethum graveolens L. (family Apiaceae) is an important culinary herb commonly called dill in English. This plant is native to southwest Asia and the Mediterranean region and is widely cultivated throughout Asia, Africa, Europe, Southern Russia, and the United States. The leaves, fruit, and essential oil of dill have numerous culinary uses, and the oil is a flavor additive in numerous products in the food industry such as dill pickles, processed meat, cheese, and bread. It is a perfume agent in detergents, soaps, fragrances, cosmetics, and mouthwashes. Dill has a long history of use in traditional medicines dating back thousands of years in China, Greece. and the Roman empire, particularly for relieving pain, indigestion, and anxiety. Recent clinical trials evaluated dill and its extracts for managing risk factors for diabetes and cardiovascular disease, as well as in improving outcomes during labor and delivery. This narrative summarizes these published human studies examining the potential health benefits of dill and highlights potential areas for further research.

“…Previous studies have revealed that the seeds of other vegetables and medicinal plants in Apiaceae, such as dill, coriander, and fennel, also contain many different types of nutraceuticals with important medicinal value at varying concentrations [ 149 ]. For example, dill seeds are used to relieve colic pain and treat diarrhea, asthma, neuralgia, diabetes, cardiovascular diseases, gallbladder disease, and other conditions [ 150 , 151 ]. Cumin seeds have been used widely in traditional Chinese medicinal practices to treat toothaches, diarrhea, epilepsy, dyspepsia, and jaundice [ 152 ].…”

Many of the world’s most important vegetables and medicinal crops, including carrot, celery, coriander, fennel, and cumin, belong to the Apiaceae family. In this review, we summarize the complex origins of Apiaceae and the current state of research on the family, including traditional and molecular breeding practices, bioactive compounds, medicinal applications, nanotechnology and omics research. Numerous molecular markers, regulatory factors and functional genes have been discovered, studied and applied to improve vegetables and medicinal crops in Apiaceae. In addition, current trends in Apiaceae application and research are also briefly described, including mining new functional genes and metabolites using omics research, identifing new genetic variant associated with the important agronomic traits by population genetics analysis and GWAS, applying the genetic transformation, CRISPR-Cas9 gene editing system and nanotechnology in Apiaceae plants. This review provides a reference for basic and applied research on Apiaceae vegetable and medicinal plants.
