“…Upon heating, the reactants may go through several out-of-equilibrium steps of metastable phases before arriving at the target compound, as measured by in situ diffraction during solid-state synthesis of layered sodium cobaltite magnetite oxides, 70 or hydrothermal synthesis of sodium niobate. 71 The initial mixing of the reactants before synthesis could determine which phase is able to form first, which might be a reason why solution-based methods such as nebulized spray pyrolysis and solution combustion are prominent in high entropy materials synthesis, since they usually promote more intimate initial mixing of the constituents. Equally popular solid state methods, on the other hand, rely on the diffusion of individual atoms over length scales upward of hundreds of nanometers depending on the particle size of the initial reagent.…”

The field of high entropy oxides (HEOs) flips traditional materials science paradigms on their head by seeking to understand what properties arise in the presence of profound configurational disorder. This disorder, which originates from multiple elements sharing a single lattice site, can take on a kaleidoscopic character due to the vast numbers of possible elemental combinations. High configurational disorder appears to imbue some HEOs with functional properties that far surpass their nondisordered analogs. While experimental discoveries abound, efforts to characterize the true magnitude of the configurational entropy and understand its role in stabilizing new phases and generating superior functional properties have lagged behind. Understanding the role of configurational disorder in existing HEOs is the crucial link to unlocking the rational design of new HEOs with targeted properties. In this Perspective, we attempt to establish a framework for articulating and beginning to address these questions in pursuit of a deeper understanding of the true role of entropy in HEOs.

Introduction: Classical studies worldwide give a new dimension of how religious values motivated an individual's menstrual practice in the sociological framework and psychological understanding of social actions against social barriers in this issue. Religion argues that the law of women's social conduct and dominance is becoming a social taboo on menstruation issues. Religious structure and conviction decide a woman's path from menarche to menopause, depending on society's pattern. Methodology: The discussion is entirely based on secondary sources available in esteem journals and web pages. Discussion: Menstruation has been condemned by all religions, which has led to restrictions on sociocultural activity during this period. The assumption is that menstrual blood is "dirty" that girls and women will bring "bad luck" to the counterpart of the society. The secrecy and shame associated with menstruation and assumptions about certain behaviours on menstruation activities are among the themes explored in the different regions worldwide. Conclusion: Isolation, exclusion from religious practices, and sexual abstinence are the most commonly used tactics. Women are still prohibited from entering temples in today's religions. Both religions share the age-old belief in spiritual impurity, which does not seem to go away. Thus, menstruation is a taboo subject in today's culture.

“…11 Zoroastrianism was the official religion of the Persians in pre-Islamic time, dating back to at least the second millennium BC. 12 Discussion of the lesser circulation is mentioned in the 30th chapter of this book (Figure 1) 13 : "First, blood goes to the liver and then will be transferred to the heart and will cause the palpitation. Subsequently, it will be absorbed by lungs and will be released to the heart."…”
