According to the science of Ayurveda, Dushta Pratisyaya condition, is in proximity to chronic sinusitis. Asava (fermented formulation) is mentioned for Virechana Nasya (type of Errhine therapy).  Nimbasava is a formulation of Asava Kalpana prepared with Guggulu Tikthaka Gritha Yoga explained in Vaatavyadhi Chikitsa. Sigrubeeja (seed of Moringa Oleifera) and Saindhava (rock salt) are explained among Shirovirechana Gana (a group of medicines that can be used for nasal administration). The study was conducted on 30 patients of chronic sinusitis who were randomly divided into two groups and were given treatment for 7 days and follow-up after for 3 months. Out of two groups, 15 patients were given Virechana Nasya with Nimbasava, Sigru Beeja, and Saindhava for 7 days. The other 15 patients were treated as a standard control group and given the modern conventional management with Amoxicillin Clavulanate 500 mg, Fluticasone nasal spray, and Otrivin nasal drops for 7 days. The statistical analysis of data was done with the Wilcoxon Signed Rank Test and Mann-Whitney U test. During this trial, it was observed that Nimbasava Nasya with Sigrubeeja is effective in acute exacerbation of Chronic Rhinosinusitis. Pain relieving action of this Nasya was statistically highly significant. It was also found that the effectiveness of Nasya is more in reducing the recurrence of acute exacerbations of Chronic Rhinosinusitis.","PeriodicalId":13751,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Ayurvedic Medicine","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.1,"publicationDate":"2024-07-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141662610","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}

For preventing the episodes of Miscarriage/Abortion Masanumas kashayas (MK) have been explained by Sushruta and Vagbhata.

Jyotishmati and Yastimadhu are both Medhya dravya to enhance IQ and memory describe in numerous Ayurveda classical texts. Aim &objectives: To compare the efficacy of Jyotishmati with Yastimadhu on IQ and Memory in children with various Prakriti types. Material & Methods: Total 60 healthy participants are enrolled and randomly divided into 2 equal main groups and 6 subgroups (VataPitta, VataKapha, PittaVata, PittaKapha, KaphaVata, KaphaPitta). Group-J (Intervention group) given Jyotishmati granules and Group-Y (Control group) given Yastimadhu granules both the interventions were administered for 60 days and follow up for 60 days. Observations & Result: While comparing Group J and Group Y, it showed highly significant at follow up in kapha-pitta groups with p<0.001 in IQ and statistically significant with p<0.05 in memory. Discussion: Kapha Pitta Prakriti dominant groups showed significant results in follow-up, because Kapha Prakriti persons are bestowed with Gunas (qualities) like Chirgrahi(slow grasping), Dhritiman (good retaining power) and Smritiman (good memory). Pitta Prakriti persons are Medhavi(sharp grasping) and Nipunmati(good retention power), together with the action of Jyotishmati granules, showed significant dominance over other Prakriti Doshas. Conclusion: The prevalence of low IQ at pre-treatment in Group J was 3.32 % and Group Y was 6.7%. In memory, Group J was 16.7% and Group Y was 10% are on Average memory. Both the groups were 100% improve to Average IQ, and 100% improve to Good memory in Group J but 96.7% in Group Y at post-treatment and follow-up.

Camus (QL) seeds are used in traditional medicine to treat various urinary and renal diseases. It is used as a diuretic, antioxidant, and nephroprotective agent. In the present study, we investigated the in vitro and in vivo antiurolithiatic activity of methanolic extract of Quercus Leucotrichophora A. Camus (MEQL) Seeds. Methods: An in vitro assay was used to determine whether MEQL prevents the formation of calcium oxalate (CaOx) or promotes CaOx dissolution. In in vivo studies, the effects of oral administration of Methanolic extract of test drug were studied on calcium oxalate urolithiasis in male Wistar rats. Male Wistar rats were divided into six groups of 6 animals each. Animals of Normal control received regular drinking water ad libitum throughout the study. whereas in other groups nephrolithiasis was induced by providing drinking water containing 0.75% ethylene glycol and 1% ammonium chloride for 7 days. Test groups were treated with 250 mg/kg, 375 mg/kg, and 500 mg/kg of the test drug and standard control with Cystone (750 mg/kg) for 21 days. Urine was examined for the presence of crystals on the 8th and 22nd days. On the 22nd day, 24 h urine, serum was collected and various biochemical parameters were estimated in urine, serum, and kidney homogenate along with histology of the kidney. Results: In the in vitro experiments, MEQL exhibited a concentration-dependent inhibitory activity on nucleation and aggregation. The urine volume increased significantly in all test groups. Test groups showed a significant reduction in the number of CaOx crystals in urine. Levels of urinary calcium, phosphorus, and sodium; Serum levels of calcium, phosphorus, creatinine, and urea decreased significantly in standard and test groups. Histopathology shows significant changes. From the above results, it can be concluded that the methanolic extract of Quercus leucotrichophora seeds has a significant inhibitory effect on calcium oxalate urolithiasis due to their diuretic and antioxidant activity. Conclusion: These results indicate that MEQL showed significant activity in urolithiasis which might be due to diuretic and antioxidant action.","PeriodicalId":13751,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Ayurvedic Medicine","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.1,"publicationDate":"2024-07-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141661989","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}
