Autoimmune disease occurs when the immune system attacks self-molecules as a result of a breakdown of immu- nological tolerance to auto reactive immune cells. Autoimmune disorders are on the rise globally and affect 8.5% of the population worldwide. In that one among is Multiple Sclerosis (MS)2 is a chronic progressive disease with a variety of cognitive, motor and sensory deficits. In Ayurveda, Multiple Sclerosis can be correlated to Pranaavruta Vyana3, all autoimmune diseases are the result of Amavisha and ama utpatti.4 Modern treatments like immuno- suppressant, corticosteroids, stem cell therapy are highly expensive when compared to Ayurvedic management.

Intrauterine growth restriction is quite common condition now a days and needs intensive fetal surveillance and proper antepartum and intra-partum care. IUGR may result in significant fetal morbidity and mortality if not properly diagnosed and treated. The condition is most commonly caused by inadequate maternal-fetal circulation, resulting in decrease in fetal growth. In Ayurveda, IUGR can be considered under Garbhakshaya. In Garbhakshaya according to Acharya Sushruta, Garbhaaspandana and Anunatkukshitta mentioned which is mainly due to the inadequate nutrition to fetus. Acharya Sushruta has mentioned the usage of Ksheerabasti from 8th month onwards to nourish the fetus in Garbhakshaya. In present case study, A 29-year-old pregnant woman with period of gestation 37 weeks 1 day was came to OPD of PTSR dept. National institute of Ayurveda (Deemed to be university). On examination her fundal height was found less than period of amenorrhoea. USG report showed single live intrauterine pregnancy of 35 weeks 3 days with IUGR and extensive calcification in placenta, was treated with Ksheerabasti, administered for 10 days once in the morning in the dose of 450 ml per day. After 10 days of above said treatment USG report was repeated and marked improvement was observed with no calcification and a healthy baby was delivered with normal Apgar score. So here Shatavari, Vidarikanda and Yashtimadhu sadhita Ksheerabasti is very effective treatment modality to improve IUGR and for good nourishment of fetus.

Position of a patient in surgical procedures, clinical examinations is an important assisting factor. Position of patient in minor and major surgical procedures is mentioned in ayurveda as well as modern surgery. One of such position is mentioned in Sushrut samhita sharirsthan chapter 8 and shloka number 8. This reference is about siraa utthaan before siravedh / venepuncture / bloodletting procedure. Before this procedure a position is given to patient by doctor. This study is about review of physiological changes in venous blood flow due to position of legs, use of bandhan [like tourniquet], location of bandhan from venepuncture site and effect of these techniques on veins and venous blood volume. Vein should be prominent and full of blood [sira utthaan] i.e., expected before bloodletting treatments/procedures.

All parents have a dream of be getting the healthy, intellectual and beautiful progeny this is also evident from the reference of the word like “Suputrakameeya” in classics. Ayurveda describes simple methods to produce a healthy offspring and the planning of which starts from the selection of partners. Many factors mentioned in Ayurveda towards the study of development of foetus including fertilization and sex determination, Ayurveda considered two basic factors in the development of human beings i.e., Shukra and Shonita it represents the sperm and ovum in modern medical science and which are responsible for the fertilization. Nearly all Acharyas like Charaka and Sushruta have recognised the three different types of sexes viz. Puman (male), Stri (female) and Napunsaka (hermaphrodite). In these contexts, Charaka clearly stated that dominance of Shonita during conception resulting procreation of female child and dominance of Shukra (sperm) leads to male child. The sex of an individual is determined by the X and Y chromosome. But sex determination mainly depends on the Y chromosome. It has been seen the individuals with a Y chromosome develop male characteristics and individuals without a Y chromosome develop female characteristics. Keywords: Shukra, Shonita, Puman, Stri

Ear is a very important sensory organ of hearing. Loss of hearing has a very negative impact on one’s social, pro- fessional and personal life. According to WHO (1st March 2020), there are over 5% of the world’s population are suffering from hearing loss. It is estimated that by the year 2050, 1 in every 10 people will have hearing loss. There are many modern interventions which have been used nowadays like hearing aids, etc. But it is not possible for everyone to afford such treatment. To provide effective and alternative treatment for the betterment of society with simple and less expensive local administrative treatment with the help of Ayurvedic modalities i.e. Karnapoorana (instillation of medicated volatile oil into external auditory canal) of Bilwa Taila (Bilwa oil), Katu Taila (Katu oil), Arka (volatile oil), etc. Arkas are prepared by the combination of Jala (water) and Agni (fire) and it assimilates in the body very quickly, hence it can be used in the management of Badhirya (dwindle hearing). Considering all this, the study is planned for the Evaluation of Vacha Arka Karnapoorana in Badhirya W.S.R. To Sensory Neural Hear- ing Loss.

耳朵是一个非常重要的听觉感觉器官。听力损失对一个人的社会、职业和个人生活都有非常负面的影响。根据世卫组织(2020年3月1日)的数据,全球超过5%的人口患有听力损失。据估计,到2050年,每10人中就有1人会有听力损失。现在有许多现代干预手段,如助听器等。但不是每个人都能负担得起这种治疗。在阿育吠陀模式的帮助下,通过简单而廉价的地方行政治疗,即Bilwa Taila (Bilwa油),Katu Taila (Katu油),Arka(挥发油)等的Karnapoorana(向外耳道注入药用挥发油),为改善社会提供有效的替代治疗。Arkas是由Jala(水)和Agni(火)结合而成的,它在体内吸收得非常快,因此它可以用于治疗Badhirya(减少听力)。考虑到这一切,本研究计划用于评价巴德里亚地区Vacha Arka Karnapoorana对感觉神经性听力损失的影响。关键词:感音神经性听力损失,Vacha Arka, Badhirya, Karnapoorana

Diabetes Mellitus is one of the of the most common non communicable or lifestyle disease globally. In Ayurveda this condition can be correlate with Madhumeha. It is one type of Prameha where the patient passes honey like urine. Prevalence of diabetes mellitus is rapidly rising throughout the world, where India leads with largest num- ber of diabetes. In Ayurveda Madhumeha is explained as Asadhya but also gives treatment for it. Ayurveda can be useful in the treatment of diabetes and associated complications. Sodhan and Shaman both are useful in the treat- ment of Madhumeha. A 64 years old male patient known case of Insulin dependent diabetes mellitus was visited in OPD of P. D.

Patient was on regular allopathic medicine for 10 year but he did not got any satisfactory relief in the sign and symptoms. His blood glucose level also not under control. He was treated for 28 days in I.P.D. treatment then after O.P.D. treatment also given. After treatment a significant improvement was noted in patient’s signs and symptoms.

Low back pain is a very common health problem worldwide and a major cause of disability affecting performance at work and general well-being. Though several risk factors have been identified including occupational posture, depressive moods, obesity, body height and age, the causes of the onset of low back pain remain obscure and di- agnosis difficult to make. Low back pain affects people of all ages, from children to the elderly, and is a very fre- quent reason for medical consultations. The 2010 Global Burden of Disease Study estimated that low back pain is among the top 10 diseases. Prevalence increases and peaks between the ages of 35 years and 55 years. Katishula or Low back pain is one of the Vataja Nanatmaja vikaras. The symptoms of Katishula explained in the Classics when compared to Low back pain almost appear similar, so we can co-relate Katishula with Low back pain. Many a times in our clinical practice we come across patients complaining of Katishula (low back pain) as a common symptom which can be seen in many of the diseases with different way of presentation based on the se- verity of the condition. Hence the Present article is built on a detailed historical search on Katishula as per the various classical references, in understanding it merely as a symptom or the disease proper.

Excess weight gain, especially when associated with increased visceral adiposity, is a major cause of hypertension accounting 65-75% of total cases of hypertension. Increased renal tubular sodium reabsorption by the impairment in renal pressure natriuresis plays an important role in initiating obesity induced hypertension. The present study conceptually tries to substantiate the relation between moolasthana described for medovahasrotas with reference to the pathology of obesity induced hypertension. The moola explained for medovahasrotas are Kati, Vrikka, Vapavahana and Mamsa (Kidney, Suprarenal gland, Lumbosacral region, Superficial fat) which are the general regions of deposition of visceral fat or meda. The increased meda will hamper the renal pressure natriuresis in mainly three ways: 1)Physical compression of the kidneys by fat in and around kidney. 2)Increased activation of RAAS. 3)Increased SNS activity. Thus, medovaha srotodushti further enhances medodhatudushti (Obesity or Sthoulyata) itself, which in turn destroys the srotomoola. Hence, evidence of inherent relation among medovaha srotas and its respective srotomoola is established. Keywords: Medovahasrotas, Srotomoola, obesity induced hypertension

Anxiety is arguably an emotion that predates the evolution of man. Its ubiquity in humans, and its presence in a range of anxiety disorders, makes it an important clinical focus. GAD (Generalised anxiety disorder) is the most common psychiatric disorder characterised by Repeated, Persistent and unrealistic worry about life-events but it is different from normal feelings of anxiousness.
