Still, the number of infected cases with deaths is increasing day by day. Unfortunately, to date, we do not have a single specific remedy for it. Along with the protective measures, respiratory and/ or circulatory supports and some non-specific anti-viral drug therapies have been reported to fight against this pandemic. So far, 165 vaccine candidates have been in various stages of clinical trials, of which 26 are in human trials. Besides Oxford University’s vaccine many others have already been able to garner worldwide response, it is still a long way to go. On the other hand, the discovery of vaccines is also delaying drug therapy approaches. In this case, we can focus on dietary supplements, especially vitamin-rich foods, as an alternative treatment.

Without the application of science, herbal medicine would just remain traditional. The broad objective of the study was to identify the phytochemical properties of these three medicinal plants in order to encourage utilization, conservation and management of these plant species. This research sought to contribute to existing knowledge about the phytochemical constituents and medicinal uses of these plants. The highest concentrations of tannin (11.6%) and flavonoid (10.1%) were found in the leaves of Ceiba petandra . Anthraquinone was not found in any of the plant species investigated. Alkaloid was found only in the leaves of Moringa oleifera with a concentration of 5.4%. Terpenoids were found only in the leaves of Ceiba petandra (4.2%) and in the leaves of Moringa oleifera (3.5%). The least concentration of cyanoglycosides (0.1%) was found in the leaves of Ceiba petandra . It was concluded that leaves of Ceiba petandra , Moringa oleifera and Cymbopogon citratus were the major sources of phytochemicals. The study also revealed that higher quantities of phytochemicals were found in Ceiba petandra leaves when compared with other plant species. This showed that the leaves of Ceiba petandra are highly medicinal. It is recommended that Clinical trials should be conducted on these medicinal plant species to determine their efficacy in the treatment of diseases.","PeriodicalId":92796,"journal":{"name":"International journal of complementary & alternative medicine","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-02-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45494469","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}

At the end of treatment of male albino rats, hearts were excised from anesthetized animals and mounted on modified Langendorff setup. After initial perfusion with physiological solution, hearts were subjected to 15 min global no flow ischemia reperfusion injury (IRI) and perfused again. Significant recovery in developed tension and heart rate was exhibited by hearts of animals pretreated with ATN, GH-125 and GH-250. There was significant elevation of LDH and CK-MB in heart tissue homogenate and fall in perfusate of treated groups (ATN, GH-125 and GH-250). Additionally, simultaneous administration of GH-250 with ATN resulted in significant increase in endogenous antioxidant enzymes (SOD and catalase) activities. The augmented antioxidant activities could be due to the possible synergistic potential of ATN in GH mediated scavenging of oxidative free radicals produced during IRI. On the contrary, high dose of GH (500 mg/kg) failed to demonstrate similar potential even in presence of ATN. Hence, only moderate intake of garlic is good for cardioprotection when administered prophylactically and addition of ATN produces synergistic effect.","PeriodicalId":92796,"journal":{"name":"International journal of complementary & alternative medicine","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-02-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41897768","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}

PAP is traditionally used in Asian medicine. Methods: This open intra-individual study was conducted during three periods of four weeks each: first as baseline with usual treatment, second PAP treatment on top usual treatment and third free choice of the patient. 31 voluntary patients (20 women and 11 men) with frequent episodic and chronic tension-type headache (6 to 15 per month) self-administered massage therapy on acupuncture points with the local application of a concentrated plant formula. Headache frequency, intensity, duration, and analgesic use were recorded and compared with baseline values. Results: Compared with baseline values, the average number of headache episodes was significantly reduced during the PAP period from 13.06+-6.7 to 10.9+-5.5. The reduction of headache episodes continued for the remainder of the study (p= 0.01). At the end of the trial, when patients had a free choice of treatment, average headache number was 7.17+-4.86 and for 87% of headaches the patients opt for PAP alone. Concerning intensity and duration, the effect of PAP was on the same magnitude as paracetamol on-demand. The intake of paracetamol was sharply reduced by phyto-acupressure. Conclusions: The phyto-acupressure therapy used in this study seems to go beyond the treatment of pain. In addition to have an analgesic effect measured by reduction in analgesic use, PAP also has a prophylactic action in reducing headache frequency. A randomized controlled trial is needed as a next step.","PeriodicalId":92796,"journal":{"name":"International journal of complementary & alternative medicine","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-01-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43764167","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}

Animals were immunized with native, recombinant and conjugated proteins. The humoral immune response was measured in terms of antibody titers. A relative contribution of Th1/Th2 type was evaluated in terms of IgG1 & IgG2a isotyping and IFN-γ & IL4 levels. Splenocytes from mice immunized showed moderate T- cell recruitment in terms of cell proliferation.
