There are two types of Prakriti viz. Shareerika and Manasika are described in ancient Ayurveda texts. While Vata, Pitta and Kapha determine the characteristics of the body (Shareere), the Sattva, Rajas and Tamo Guna are said to influence the attitudes and behaviour of an individual. Mental status can be defined as a comprehensive description or statement of a patient’s intellectual capacity, emotional state and general mental health based on the examiner's observations and directed interview including assessment of mood, behaviour, orientation, judgment, memory, problem-solving ability and contact with reality. The present study aims to establish the interrelationship between Prakriti and mental state and to find out the socio-demographic characteristics of the participants. A retrospective survey was conducted on Ayurvedic Medical Officers with the help of Bachelor of Ayurveda Medicine and Surgery graduates. All the participants were between the age group of 20-45 years. Both males and females were included in the training programme at the Institute of Indigenous Medicine, University of Colombo. A selfassessment questionnaire was used for the survey. In the present study, the majority of participants belong to the age group between 31-40 years (92.8%) of which 88% of participants were females. It has been found that the majority of the participants were living in the Suburban area (49.4%) and their education level was recorded till graduation. The present study revealed that 56.6% of participants have Sathwa Manasika Prakriti whereas 44.6 participants have PittaKapha Shareerika Prakriti. The mental state revealed 81.95% of normal, 13.3% of mild and 4.8% of moderate mental status. The study concludes that there was a significant relationship between Manasika Prakriti and mental status (p = 0.008) whereas the relationship of Shareerika Prakriti with mental status was found insignificant (p = 0.287).","PeriodicalId":365000,"journal":{"name":"JOURNAL OF CONVENTIONAL KNOWLEDGE AND HOLISTIC HEALTH","volume":"40 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-06-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123490641","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}

This study examined various correlates of healthcare-seeking behavior for dysmenorrhea among female students in three tertiary institutions in the Delta state of Nigeria. The research design was cross-sectional employing the questionnaire as a research instrument. A total of 400 female students randomly selected in the three tertiary institutions, filled and returned the questionnaire. Descriptive and inferential methods were used to analyze the data. The most recurring age groups in COE and DELSU were 16-21years (49.3% and 54% respectively) while DSSH was 22-27years (39%). Over 75% of all respondents were single;. Across the institutions, the majority (26.3%) visited the chemist, 22.3% the pharmacy, 13.0% the hospital and 1.5% sought health care from herbal and spiritual homes. For self-medication, 59.8% used Paracetamol and 1.5% resorted to herbs to relieve menstrual pain. Generally, more people patronized private health facilities; there was a significant difference across educational institutions (p<0.05) in the first point of call during menstrual pains/cramps, Self-medication usage, Herbal preparation usage and Effectiveness of self-medication. The use of self-medication had a relationship with the severity of cramps in all institutions, [COE (p=0.009), DELSU (p=0.036) and DSSH (p=0.036).

This examination was performed to explore the anticancer effect of theaflavin, a natural flavonoid found in the leaves of tea plant Camellia sinensis. Although this molecule was found to inhibit several cancer cells, the specific anticancer action in liver cancer remains unexplored, especially in human hepatocellular carcinoma (HepG2) cells. Henceforth, the present study was designed to elucidate the anticancer activity in HepG2 cells, level of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in the cancer cells and tumour cell apoptosis. The action of theaflavin in provocation apoptosis was explored through the improved ROS by MTT assay and 2,7-dichlorodihydrofluorescein diacetate (DCFH-DA) method. As per the results obtained from the MTT assay, theaflavin had cell hindrance effect on HepG2 cells. The IC50 estimation of theaflavin to hindered cell development at 25, 50 and 75 μM concentration and instigating apoptosis through ROS improvement. The progressions in mitochondrial morphology, portion conditionally that diminished cell expansion, were seen in various concentrations of the drug treatment. In this manner, theaflavin might be useful as a chemotherapeutic agent for the treatment of liver cancer.","PeriodicalId":365000,"journal":{"name":"JOURNAL OF CONVENTIONAL KNOWLEDGE AND HOLISTIC HEALTH","volume":"14 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-11-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134324681","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}
