    Amlapitta may be a clinical entity manifesting within the Annavaha Srotas. Kashyapa and Madhava have described this disease thoroughly. Amlapitta has become quite common because of the change within the food and life styles, sophistication and a stressful life. It is characterized by Avipaka, Klama, Tiktodhgara, Amlodhgara, Gaurava, Hritkanthadaha and Aruchi indicating the Vikruthi of Pachakapitta, Kledakakapha and Samanavata. The etiological factors and therefore the symptomatology manifested relate Amlapitta to diseases mentioned under Acid Peptic Disorders. Nistushayadi Kwatha and Phalatrikadi kwatha were selected. The main objectives of the study are to study and compare the effect of Nistushayadi Kwatha and effect of Phalatrikadi kwatha in the management of Amlapitta. A total of 40 patients who fulfilled the inclusion criteria were selected, and randomly assigned into two groups i.e., Group A and Group B, comprising of 20 patients each. Group A and Group B were administered Nistushayadi kwatha and Phalatrikadi Kwatha respectively for 30 days. Both the groups were advised Pathya Ahara. They were followed up after every 10th days. After the intervention the Samanya Lakshana of Amlapitta were observed, recorded and assessed. The overall assessment of both the groups, where group A receives Nistushyadi kwatha and group B Phalatrikadi kwatha shows promising improvement in the subjective parameters. Assessment was done using unpaired ‘t’ test between these two groups, the result was not quite statistically significant which means there is no much difference in the efficacy of these two formulation in the management of Amlapitta. Both the formulations shown nearly same outcome in the improvement of disease parameter. The reduction in the symptoms were started to be noticed by 7th day where the patients had reduction in Hrutkantha Daha, Aruchi, Kanthadaha and Angagourav. These symptoms resolved by 30th day

    CONTRIBUTION OF ACHARYA NAGARJUNA IN SUSRUTA SAMHITA: A REVIEW

    Get PDF
    Acharya Nagarjuna was a famous Buddhist Alchemist. Research scholars have faith in more than one Nagarjuna who contributed in the field of philosophy, alchemy, medical and Tantra and few scholars supporting for only one Nagarjuna who as expert in all subjects. In Ayurveda fraternity, it is general belief that Acharya Nagarjuna has composed the Uttarasthana (Uttaratantra) of Susruta Samhita but there are some references which indicates that Acharya Nagarjuna has contributed in Purvardha also. In Uttarasthana (Uttaratantra) of Susruta Samhita there has not mentioned any Alchemy whereas in Maha Kushtha Chikitsa (Purvardha), Ayaskriti has been used which clearly indicates that Acharya Nagarjuna has not only contributed in the Uttarasthan but also in the Purvardha of Susruta Samhita. Balagraha, Kayachikitsa and Bhutavidya have been described in the Uttarsthana of Susruta Samhita. There are many literatures available in Buddhism which has been contributed by Acharya Nagarjuna. If we are having deep knowledge of the Buddhist literature such as Mulmadhyamikakarika, Yuktisastika etc. which has been contributed by Acharya Nagarjuna then it will be easy to know the exact contribution of Acharya Nagarjuna in Susruta Samhitaas well as in Ayurveda. This article deals with the historical study of Acharya Nagarjuna, a great personality and his contribution in Susruta Samhita

    Background: Atrial fibrillation confers a high risk of stroke and is associated with significant mortality and morbidity. Many scoring systems for have been proposed stroke risk stratification in atrial fibrillation. Peripheral thromboembolism, heart failure and death. The main objective of the study was to estimate CHA2DS2VASc score in cases of non valvular atrial fibrillation, to asses short term outcome in AF (stroke, thromboembolism, heart failure and death and to find out association of CHA2DS2VASc score with outcomes.Methods: 64 cases (29 M, 35 F) of non valvular AF were included in this prospective observational study.CHA2DS2VASc score was calculated and cases were categorized into low (score 0), intermediate (score 1 ) and high risk (score 2 ) for development of stroke. Cases were clinically evaluated and investigated for type, etiology, complications and comorbidities.Results: CHA2DS2VASc score was determined in 64 cases of non valvular AF. In 3 cases (4.6%) it was zero indicating low risk for stroke, 8 cases (12.5%) had CHA2DS2VASc score as 1had intermediate risk, and 53 cases (82.8%) had score 2 or more indicating high stroke risk (p<0.01). 3 cases of non valvular atrial fibrillation (4.6%) presented with stroke and all of them had CHA2DS2VASc score>2. At the end of 3 months, total no. of cases with stroke was reported to be 5 (7.8 %). Stroke risk was significantly higher in cases of CHA2DS2VASc score>2 (p<0.01). Congestive heart failure was reported in 32 (50%) cases. Peripheral embolism was documented in 1 case (1.5%). Overall Mortality at the end of 3 months was reported to be 7 (10.9%) and cases with CHA2DS2VASc score ≄2 had 13% mortality. CHA2DS2VASc score ≄2 was significantly associated with mortality (p<0.01). All 3 Cases with CHA2DS2VASc score as zero were uncomplicated. 8 cases (12.5%) had score as 1 and, out of these 8 cases, CHF was reported in 2 cases (25%), while 6 (75%) were uncomplicated.CHA2DS2VASc score ≄2 was reported in 53 cases (82.3%). This group had complications in the form of CHF in 30 cases (56.6 %), thromboembolism in 1 (1.8%), and stroke in 5 (9.4%) cases. Cases of AF with CHA2DS2VASc score >2 demonstrated significantly high incidence for stroke as compared to those with score as zero or one (p<0.01).Conclusions: CHA2DS2VASc is a simple score to predict stroke risk in cases of non valvular atrial fibrillation and is easy to estimate. CHA2DS2VASc score ≄2; is associated with high incidence of stroke in cases of non valvular AF. CHA2DS2VASc score≄2 is associated with mortality as a short term adverse outcome in non valvular atrial fibrillation.
