Yonishaithilya is a common gynaecological problem in women after the reproductive age group. This must not be taken as easily as it can adversely affect a woman’s life quality and may hamper her day-to-day activities. As per Bruhatrayi, yonishaithilya represents symptoms of mahayoni yonivyapada, Vataj yonivyapada and Phalini yonivyapada. Aetiology (samprapti), signs (lakshana), symptoms, and treatment (chikitsa) of yonishaithilya resembles perineal laxity. Perineal laxity is the condition where there is loosening of supporting structures of the female pelvis, thereby allowing the descent of one or more pelvic organs through the laxed anterior and posterior vaginal walls and showing symptoms like something coming out through the vagina, increased frequency of micturition, difficulty in voiding urine, stress incontinence, toda (pricking pain), chosha (burning), kandu (itching). Ayurveda provides us with formulations like Yonishaithilyahar yoga yonidhavan in Gadanigraha. In this study, we took 100 patients diagnosed with yonishaithilya in a single group and gave them Yonishaithilyahar yoga yonidhavan for 3 cycles of 8 days. After the study, it was found that 31(31%) patients had complete remission, 66(66%) patients had marked improvement and 3(3%) patients had moderate improvement.
Yonishaithilya是育龄后妇女常见的妇科问题。这一点不能掉以轻心，因为它会对妇女的生活质量产生不利影响，并可能妨碍她的日常活动。根据Bruhatrayi的说法，yonishaithilya代表了mahayoni yonivyapada, Vataj yonivyapada和Phalini yonivyapada的症状。病因(samprapti)、体征(lakshana)、症状和治疗(chikitsa)与会阴松弛相似。会阴松弛是指女性骨盆的支撑结构松动，从而使一个或多个盆腔器官通过松弛的阴道前后壁下降，并表现出诸如有东西从阴道流出、排尿频率增加、排尿困难、压力性尿失禁、toda(刺痛)、chosha(灼烧)、kandu(瘙痒)等症状。阿育吠陀为我们提供了像Yonishaithilyahar yoga yonidhavan in Gadanigraha这样的配方。在这项研究中，我们将100名被诊断为yonishaithilya的患者作为一组，给他们进行Yonishaithilyahar瑜伽yonidhavan，为期3个周期，每8天。研究结束后，发现31例(31%)患者完全缓解，66例(66%)患者有明显改善，3例(3%)患者有中度改善。

Acalypha indica is a plant species found on roadsides and riverbanks throughout India. Native to India and Southeast Asia, Acalypha indica is an evergreen shrub often used for ornamental purposes. As the world becomes increasingly aware of the benefits of plants, the future of Acalypha indica is looking bright. It is an essential medicinal species used extensively for treating patients in the Ayurvedic and Siddha systems of medicine. It is claimed to treat various health conditions and management of chronic diseases. Due to these therapeutic activities, researchers made several studies to evaluate the chemical composition and pharmacological activities produced by the plant. Flavonoids, cyanogenic glucoside (acalyphin), tannins, saponins, and pyranoquinolinone alkaloid (flindersine) are the major chemical constituents present in Acalypha indica. In vitro, and in-vivo studies have been carried out to confirm various pharmacological activities present in this plant. This includes antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial, anti-fertility, antivenom, wound healing effect and anti-diabetic activities. They are also used as diuretic, cathartic, anthelmintic and in treating psoriasis. Overall, the potential of Acalypha indica is vast, and its future looks promising. As research progresses, more and more medicinal and ornamental uses may be discovered. This review will summarise all the pharmacological activities registered by this plant and the phytochemicals present in Acalypha indica.

Any individual's nutrient requirements are based on age, gender, and activity. With developing age, the child shows many changes. Their association with food assumes a varied spectrum to the extent of acceptance, rejection, or selection of food. But good nutrition remains fundamental to the child's physical and mental growth and development. The media exposure to tempting eatables sold in packets like wafers, etc., is the primary factor for the wrong selection of food habits. In children, the matter of concern is the quality of food. So, it is essential for some adequate supervision for the selection of food and healthy eating for preventing and postponing nutrition-related chronic diseases. There is a vast description of healthy and nutritious food in Ayurveda, with easy methods of preparation making it more acceptable in children. Pathya and apathya are used to denote the acceptability and adaptability of a particular food. Accepting that children are picky in taking food, a slight modification can make it more acceptable. The pathya kalpana is like krushara (kichidi), misraodana (boiled rice), and krutta mudga yusha (soup prepared with pulses.) yavagu (gruel) etc., are not only nutritious but also act as agni deepaka (appetizer) ruchya, (improves taste perception) balya, (promotes strength) tarpaka, (nourishing), vatanulomaka (carminative). These ahara kalpana helps restore agni's normal functioning to digest food properly and give essential nutrition to the body. So, this is an attempt to put light on Ayurvedic recipes such as nutritious food for the growth and development of children.

Introduction: Cancer has become a huge concern since it is the second-leading cause of death in poor nations and the primary cause in economically developed countries. According to the WHO, cancer has become the deadliest killer in the world and is one of the deadliest diseases of the twenty-first century. According to the World Health Organization, India accounts for at least 20% of the world's burden of paediatric cancer, with about 75,000 children diagnosed with the disease annually. According to the Indian Council for medical research, 5.5% of all cancer cases in India include youngsters. Paediatric cancer may primarily be examined under three categories: before conception, throughout pregnancy, and after delivery, according to the adhyatmika vyadhi categorization of illness. According to the current paradigm, DNA alterations that occur early in a child's life cause cancer, which is caused by inherited mutations from parents that raise the chance of cancer in children. Some preventative methods, including dinacharya, ritucharya, rasayana, shodhana, and garbhini paricharya, are explained by Ayurveda. The condition that resembles cancer is described as Granthi and Arbuda in the classical texts of Ayurveda. The purpose of this study to find out the integrated approach in childhood malignancies-prevention and control.
导言:癌症已经成为一个巨大的关注，因为它是贫穷国家的第二大死亡原因，也是经济发达国家的主要原因。据世界卫生组织称，癌症已经成为世界上最致命的杀手，是21世纪最致命的疾病之一。根据世界卫生组织(World Health Organization)的数据，印度至少占全球儿科癌症负担的20%，每年约有7.5万名儿童被诊断出患有这种疾病。根据印度医学研究委员会的数据，印度5.5%的癌症病例包括年轻人。根据adhyatmika vyadhi疾病分类，儿科癌症主要分为三类:孕前、怀孕期间和分娩后。根据目前的范式，在儿童生命早期发生的DNA改变会导致癌症，这是由父母遗传的突变引起的，这些突变会增加儿童患癌症的几率。阿育吠陀解释了一些预防方法，包括dinacharya, ritucharya, rasayana, shodhana和garbhini paricharya。在阿育吠陀的经典文献中，类似癌症的情况被描述为Granthi和Arbuda。本研究旨在探讨儿童恶性肿瘤的综合防治方法。

Unexplained infertility refers to a diagnosis made in couples in whom standard investigations, including semen analysis, ovulation testing, and tubal patency, yield average results. A 29-year-old woman who had had trouble conceiving for three years got admitted. She has had regular menstruation cycles since she was 17, and bleeding usually lasts 4-5 days. Her secondary sexual signs were typical, and there was no evidence of any other systemic disease. So, treatment was planned based on the concept of kshetra shudhi (purification of the uterus). The patient was of Vata Pitta prakriti (Vata Pitta constitution), and considering kala (season) and other factors, vamana (emesis) and virechana (purgation) was planned. Vamana karma (emesis) is done with Madanaphaladi yoga (Randia dumeorum medicines) after doing snehapana (intake of medicated ghee) with Indukantham ghrita. Virechana (purgation) was done with Manibhadra gulam after doing snehapanam (intake of medicated ghee) with Kalyanaka ghrita. The patient conceived soon after her first menstrual cycle and delivered a healthy baby girl. The kshetra (uterus) should be devoid of the morbid dosha for conceptions. Vamana (emesis) and virechana (purgation) have action all over the body, and so it does kshetra shudhi (purification of the uterus).

Background: Thyroid hormones have a major role in renal development and physiology. It has been shown that in chronic kidney disease (CKD), as the Glomerular Filtration Rate (GFR) falls, there is a higher possibility of developing clinical and subclinical hypothyroidism (SCH). With falling GFR, several abnormalities are growing in the thyroid gland at both structural and functional levels. Objective: To estimate the frequency of kuraiveethana noi (subclinical and clinical hypothyroidism) among CKD patients through lab investigation (Thyroid Function Test). Materials and Methods: It is a cross-sectional study carried out on 50 CKD patients reporting at the National Institute of Siddha using a non-random sampling method. After obtaining informed consent, Blood samples were collected from each patient to document their Thyroid profile. Results: Based on their report of thyroid profile, 19 patients had subclinical hypothyroidism, and 6 patients had clinical hypothyroidism. Conclusion: The study concludes that the frequency of subclinical and clinical hypothyroidism is found to be 38% (19 patients) and 12% (6 patients), respectively, among 50 chronic kidney disease patients who visited OPD of Ayothidoss Pandithar Hospital, National Institute of Siddha, Tambaram sanatorium.
背景:甲状腺激素在肾脏发育和生理中起着重要作用。研究表明，慢性肾脏疾病(CKD)中，随着肾小球滤过率(Glomerular Filtration Rate, GFR)的下降，发生临床和亚临床甲状腺功能减退(hypothyroidism, SCH)的可能性更高。随着GFR的下降，甲状腺在结构和功能水平上出现了一些异常。目的:通过实验室调查(甲状腺功能检查)了解慢性肾病患者亚临床和临床甲状腺功能减退的发生率。材料和方法:这是一项横断面研究，采用非随机抽样方法，在Siddha国家研究所报告的50例CKD患者中进行。在获得知情同意后，收集每位患者的血液样本以记录其甲状腺状况。结果:根据所报告的甲状腺资料，亚临床甲状腺功能减退19例，临床甲状腺功能减退6例。结论:50例慢性肾病患者就诊于Ayothidoss Pandithar医院、National Institute of Siddha、Tambaram疗养院门诊，亚临床和临床甲状腺功能减退的发生率分别为38%(19例)和12%(6例)。

A wound may be defined as a break in the epithelial integrity of the skin or may also be described as a loss or breaking of cellular and anatomic or functional continuity of living tissue. Healing is a survival mechanism that maintains normal anatomical structure and function. Treatment is therefore aimed at minimizing the undesired consequences. Management of the healing of wounds is a complicated and expensive program, and research on drugs that increase wound healing is a developing area in modern biomedical sciences. The correct approach to treating wounds should effectively assist the healing process, and it can significantly impact the final clinical outcome. The use of herbal medicines and traditional plant extracts for wound healing is gaining popularity over other drugs, which may be explained by the perception that they have fewer side effects.

In Ayurveda, desha refers to bhumi desha [geographical land] and atura desha [patients]. Both of them are interrelated and have been extensively described in the classics. A geographical land is characterized by the type of soil, which plays a vital role in climate, water cycle, rainfall etc. These are a few essential factors needed for the survival of humans. Bhumi Desha is one such factor which influences the health and disease of an individual. Knowledge of the place in which a person is born helps in determining its strength, while knowledge of the place where the person is living determines the susceptibility to disease occurring. Understanding the geographical land gives an extensive idea about the properties of drugs. Desha plays a vital role in the causation of epidemic, endemic or pandemic disease. Three types of geographical lands are described in Ayurveda jangal desha [dry lands], anupa desha [wetlands] and sadharana desha [mixed dry and wet land]. The three biological entities Vata, Pitta and Kapha dosha of an individual have an extensive relationship with these lands. bhumi desha and atura desha are interrelated, affecting the latter in many areas.

The three biological entities Vata, Pitta and Kapha dosha of an individual have an extensive relationship with these lands. bhumi desha and atura desha are interrelated, affecting the latter in many areas.","PeriodicalId":14253,"journal":{"name":"International journal of research in ayurveda and pharmacy","volume":"20 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-06-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"91269371","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Vernal keratoconjunctivitis (VKC) is the commonest allergic eye disease in childhood. The major complaints of VKS patients are intense itching, tearing, photophobia and mucous discharge. This condition can be correlated with Kaphaja Abhishyanda (Kapha dominant conjunctivitis) in Ayurvedic texts. Kriyakalpa (ocular therapeutic procedures) procedure, along with oral medications, successfully manages symptoms and reduces the recurrence rate. A nine-year-old female patient consulted the eye OPD of the National Institute of Ayurveda, Jaipur, with chief complaints of atikandu (excessive itching), akshiraga (redness in the eyes) and jalsrava (watery secretion) in both eyes since three months. Slit lamp examination revealed the presence of gelatinous opacification (approx. 2 mm in size) at the limbus, hyperaemia in the palpebral conjunctiva and triangular congestion in the bulbar conjunctiva. The rest of the eye assessment was normal. Owing to the symptoms and signs, the case was diagnosed as VKC, which can be correlated with Kaphaja Abhishyanda. Hence this patient was treated with Kriyakalpa (ocular therapeutic procedures) like Ashchyotana (eye drops), Nasyam (medications through nasal route), Vidalaka (Application of medicated paste on the outer part of the eye), etc., along with oral medications. Kriyakalpas (ocular therapeutic procedures), as well as internal medications, give significant results in the management of vernal keratoconjunctivitis.

Sushruta Samhita describes Bhagandar (Fistula-in-Ano) as one of the Ashtamahagada (the eight major diseases). This disease is recurrent, which makes it more challenging to treat. So, it causes inconvenience in routine life. The concept of the Ksharasutra has been explained in the context of Nadi vrana (sinus) by Acharya Sushruta. Hippocrates has explained the application of plain silk thread for the Fistula-in-Ano. Ksharasutra, being a medicated thread prepared per the standard protocol, has been proven to be a big revolution in treating Fistula-in-Ano. The Ksharasutra plays an important role, and its efficacy has been explained in various studies. In the present case series, we present here 5 different Bhagandar manifestations, managed with shamana aushadhis, Ksharasutra, anulomana (laxative effect), and panchavalkala sitz bath. The patients were treated on an OPD basis with a weekly thread change. The patients recovered well with complete tract excision within 6-12 weeks. Treatment of Fistula-in-Ano with Ksharasutra is a simple technique with low complications, less reoccurrence, and is cost-effective. Thus, Ksharasutra is very effective with the minimum invasive surgical modality for managing Bhagandara (Fistula-in-Ano).
