Diabetes mellitus is a metabolic, autoimmune, stress induced impaired hyperglycemia. It is due to either deficiency of insulin or combination of insulin resistance and inadequate insulin secretion. Virechana and Rasarasayana Yogas are stated as the best in Madhumeha. In the present study Virechana was selected. For Deepana Pachana, Abhayadi Kwatha was selected, Snehana was done with Murchita Sarshapa Taila, during Vishramakaala, Sarvanga Abhyanga was done with Murchita Sarshapa Taila and Baspa Sweda was done for 3 days. Virechana was given with Vishalapippali Yoga, followed by Rasarasayana Yoga, Neelakantha Rasa with Phalatrikadi Kwatha. Result showed that, there was very good improvement in the subjective parameters and objective parameter, FBS was reduced from 102.7 mg/dl to 98 mg/dl. PPBS were reduced from 145.6 mg/dl to 132 mg/dl. HbA1C was reduced from 8.4% to 5.8% after the intervention. In the contest of Madhumeha Chikitsa, Virechana is highlighted. In practice the newly diagnosed case of Madhumeha is reversible with timely Ayurvedic classical intervention. A significant improvement, in subjective and objective parameter of Madhumeha (DM2) has made it necessary to make a single case study.","PeriodicalId":486780,"journal":{"name":"Journal of ayurveda and integrated medical sciences","volume":"16 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-02-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140433032","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}

Stroke is a major global public health problem. According to the Global Burden of Diseases (GBD) study in 1990, stroke was the second leading cause of death worldwide.

According to Acharya Susahruta, ‘Bhagandhara’ starts as deep-seated pidika (boil) surrounding Guda (anus) within two Angulas, producing fever and pain. In contemporary science it is compared to fistula-in-ano. Fistula-in-ano is a track lined by granulation tissue and communicating two epithelial lined surfaces which opens deeply in the anal canal or rectum and superficially on the skin around the anus. In modern medical science various treatment modalities has been explained but they are having its own merits and demerits. Ksharasutra is a medicated thread, indicated in ano-rectal disorders particularly in the management of Bhagandhara. In plane Kshrasutra the required time for cut through and healing of wound is more, so patients are mentally disturbed with this disease. Hence to minimize the required time, multiple interventions along with Ksharasutra is opted. In this case report, a patient of fistula- in-ano having 9cm at posterior aspect of anal canal was treated with multiple approaches which are partial fistulotomy, Kshara application and Ksharasutra ligation for remaining part of tract. Regular dressing was done with Jatyadi Ghrita for the partial fistulotomy wound and old Ksharasutra was changed with a new one by rail-road method on every week for the remaining part of fistulous tract. The unit cutting time (UCT) was measured and noted at every week. This case was cured completely within 7 weeks. Hence study concluded that the long fistula cases can be treated with multiple interventions along with Ksharasutra.","PeriodicalId":486780,"journal":{"name":"Journal of ayurveda and integrated medical sciences","volume":"11 8","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-02-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140433330","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}

Ayurveda describes the conception process, fetal development, and the effect of Doshas (biological energies) on the fetus's growth and health. Ayurvedic embryology emphasizes the mother's health and well-being during pregnancy, as well as the effect of the father's Doshas on the child's genetic makeup. It also includes prenatal care guidelines, such as diet, lifestyle, and herbal remedies, to help the fetus develop normally. Aims: This review applies Ayurvedic concepts of Grabhasharir to embryology, analyzing the genesis of progeny using modern scientific knowledge. Materials and Methods: Brihattrayee along with other relevant literature were reviewed to identify the hidden core of embryology described in chapters about Garbhasharir. Results: The Ayurvedic essence outlines two types of processes in progeny genesis: dependent and independent, with dependent processes modifying and independent processes unaffected by parental efforts.
