A total of 150 patients with kidney stones undergoing extracorporeal shock wave surgery were randomly divided into research group and control group with 75 subjects in each group. The patients in the control group were treated with routine methods such as anti-infection, pain relief and hemostasis after operation, while the research group was treated with diuretic and stone-dispelling mixture on the basis of the control group. The medication cycle is 7 d. The treatment effects, symptom scores, average time for residual stone removal, renal function-related indicators, urine N-acetyl-beta-d-glucosaminidase, beta-2 microglobulin, cystatin C levels, inflammatory factor levels and the proportion of analgesic drugs were compared between the two groups. The drug effect of the study group was better than that of the control group (p<0.05), the symptom score, average time of residual stone excretion, levels of renal function indicators, blood creatinine and blood urea nitrogen in the study group were lower than those of the control group (p<0.05). The levels of urinary N-acetyl-beta-d-glucosaminidase, beta-2 microglobulin and cystatin C in the study group were better than those in the control group (p<0.05). The indicators of inflammatory factors and usage rate of analgesic drugs in the study group were lower than those in the control group (p<0.05). Diuretic and stone removal mixture can significantly improve the postoperative effect of extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy, shorten the time of stone removal, increase the levels of renal function, urinary N-acetyl-beta-dglucosaminidase, beta-2 microglobulin, cystatin C, etc., improve the level of inflammatory factors and reduce the usage rate of analgesic drugs.","PeriodicalId":13292,"journal":{"name":"Indian Journal of Pharmaceutical Sciences","volume":"22 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135595963","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Antioxidants provide protection contrary to oxidative stress by counteracting free radicals through the help of different bioactive constituents present in the plants. The aim of this study is to find out the quantitative estimation of phytochemicals (phenolics, tannins, flavonoid, non-tannins, alkaloid and saponins), in vitro antioxidant activity (2, 2-diphenyl-1-picryl-hydrazyl-hydrate, metal chelating, ferric reducing, superoxide dismutase and total antioxidant activity) of different parts of Cyperus rotundus . Along with this, the extraction of polyphenolic compounds by conventional and non-conventional methods and their optimization by response surface methodology technique were also studied. As the outcomes of the study, maximum amount of total phenolics content was found in the ethanolic fraction of stem (37.88±0.94 mg gallic acid equivalent/g). The root has shown the highest flavonoid (0.24±0.03 mg QAE/g) and non-tannin content (21.55±2.43 mg gallic acid equivalent/g) in the extract of petroleum ether. The total alkaloids and tannin content in flower and root i.e., 5.05±0.08 mg caffeine equivalent/g and 76.28±0.62 mg tannic acid equivalent/g was found to be better in aqueous extract respectively. The fraction of ethyl acetate has reported the greatest saponin content (39.2±3.8 mg gallic acid equivalent/g). In case of flower part half-maximal inhibitory concentration value of 2, 2-diphenyl-1-picryl-hydrazyl-hydrate and superoxide dismutase antioxidant activity varies from 0.57-1.90 mg/ml and from 0.053-1.401 mg/ml respectively. Antioxidant activity of each part of the plant was reported in the fraction of ethanol and water by fluorescence recovery after photobleaching (0.403±0.009-0.886±0.02 mg/ml), metal chelation activity (0.010±0.0-0.306±0.001 mg/ml) and total antioxidant capacity (0.030±0.0-0.317±0.002 mg/ml). Microwave assisted extraction method was found to be the suitable one for optimization of total phenolic content. So, the relationship between different parameter was determined through response surface methodology technique and evaluated by plotting the graphs. Polar extracts have found to show the maximum quantity of secondary bioactive metabolites and antioxidant activity as compared to non-polar one. And among the comparison between conventional and non-conventional methods, ultra sonication (non-conventional method) has shown the highest yield of bioactive phenolic compound. So, this study shows that Cyperus rotundus has wide range of secondary metabolites showing antioxidant properties that can be applied for different therapeutic applications.","PeriodicalId":13292,"journal":{"name":"Indian Journal of Pharmaceutical Sciences","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.5,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"70214768","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We randomly selected 56 patients in the hospital from December 2021 to December 2022 as the study subjects. According to the time of admission, we divided them into two parts. 28 patients were given routine treatment as the control group and the other 28 patients were given alendronate sodium combined with alpha-calciferol as the observation group. Evaluate and compare both groups on the clinical efficacy rate and measure the serum receptor activator for nuclear factor kappa B ligand level and osteoprotegerin level after taking the fasting venous blood of the patients. The adverse reactions occurred during the treatment were counted and adverse reactions rate was calculated. The results showed that observation group had higher clinical control ratio and effective ratio than control group. In addition, observation group possessed higher clinical efficacy efficiency value of the patients than control group and the improvement was more obvious (p<0.05). In terms of serum level results, observation group had better data values of patients than control group. The serum receptor activator for nuclear factor kappa B ligand level, osteoprotegerin level, forced vital capacity 1 level and forced vital capacity 1/forced vital capacity values of patients in observation group were significantly improved than those in control group (p<0.05). In terms of adverse reaction evaluation, observation group during treatment had lower adverse reactions rate than control group (p<0.05).
