Research Protocol for Experimental Study of Acute and Sub chronic Dermal Toxicity of Mahabhallatak Tail in Wistar Albino Rats
type: item
description: Ayurvedic medicinal preparations that contain Vishadravyas (toxic substances) like Bhallataka (Semecarpus anacardium Linn.) are popular in the treatment of chronic skin diseases. Although their therapeutic value is important, they may have potential toxicological risks during long-term use and thus require scientific evaluation based on modern parameters. One of the classic formulations, as shown in Kushtaroga, is Mahabhallataka Taila, which includes Bhallataka as one of its key ingredients, which has strong pharmacological and irritant effects. The objective of the current research is to determine acute and subchronic dermal toxicity of Mahabhallataka Taila in Wistar albino rats with an aim of determining its safety profile. The acute dermal toxicity was measured based on OECD guidelines with 14 days observation period and subchronic toxicity was measured based on repeated dermal application, 90 days observation and 28 days recovery. Such parameters as clinical symptoms, body weight, food consumption, hematological and biochemical indicators, and histopathology were evaluated. It is likely that the study will offer scientific data regarding the dermal safety, and assist in establishing the potential local or systemic toxicity of long-term use, which will support safe therapeutic use and the global acceptance and standardization of Ayurvedic forms.

Homoeopathic Posology In Clinical Practice: A Comparative Review With Modern Drug Dosage Principles And Case-Based Application
type: item
description: Posology, the science of drug dosage, is a fundamental component of homoeopathic therapeutics, guiding the selection of potency, dose, and repetition based on individual patient characteristics. The concept evolved through careful clinical observations that emphasized the need for gentle, rapid, and permanent cure using minimum medicinal stimulus. This article reviews the historical development, philosophical foundations, and clinical application of homoeopathic posology. The evolution of posology is traced from the early use of crude doses to the adoption of infinitesimal doses and potentization, highlighting the progressive refinement of dosing principles. The introduction of single remedy, minimum dose, and individualized prescribing established the core principles that distinguish homoeopathic posology from conventional pharmacological dosage methods. The article further explores modifications introduced in successive editions of classical homoeopathic literature, including the concept of single unit dose, restriction on repetition, water dosing, and the introduction of fifty-millesimal potencies. These advancements enabled more flexible and individualized dose adjustment, minimizing aggravations while enhancing therapeutic response. Factors influencing potency selection—such as susceptibility of the patient, seat of disease, nature and intensity of pathology, stage and duration of illness, and previous treatment—are discussed in detail. Emphasis is placed on the dynamic interaction between remedy and vital force, which determines the dose and repetition schedule. A comparative overview between homoeopathic and modern dosage principles highlights differences in therapeutic philosophy, dose calculation, safety margins, and individualized treatment approaches. While conventional medicine relies on measurable pharmacokinetic parameters and standardized dosing, homoeopathy emphasizes susceptibility, vitality, and totality of symptoms for dose determination.

A PROSPECTIVE STUDY ON EVALUATING POLY PHARMACY & ITS ASSOCIATED FACTORS IN TYPE-2 DIABETES WITH GASTROPARESIS
type: item
description: Polypharmacy, defined as the concurrent use of ≥5 medications, remains highly prevalent in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) patients complicated by gastroparesis—a neuropathic motility disorder stemming from chronic hyperglycemia-induced vagal damage—primarily due to escalating multimorbidity demands for antidiabetics, antihypertensives, prokinetics, statins, and analgesics. This prospective observational study rigorously evaluated its prevalence, sociodemographic/clinical determinants, therapeutic patterns, safety profile, adherence metrics, and quality-of-life impacts in a real-world cohort of 140 adults (aged 30-70 years; 64.3% female, 57.1% rural) managed at the diabetes outpatient department of RVS Hospital, Chittoor, India, over a 6-month period (November 2025–April 2026). Prevalence reached 74.7% (95% CI: 67.2-81.2%; n=112/140), encompassing hyper-polypharmacy (≥10 drugs) in 18.7% (n=28) with a mean of 7.2 ± 2.4 medications per patient—substantially surpassing global T2DM benchmarks (40-60%) and regional studies (e.g., Ethiopian 49%, Saudi 60%). Multivariate logistic regression identified key independent factors: advanced age (>60 years; OR 6.5, 95% CI 2.4-17.3, p=0.001), prolonged diabetes duration (13.8 ± 5.2 vs. 8.4 ± 4.1 years; p=0.001), multimorbidity (≥3 comorbidities in 85.7% vs. 39.5%; OR 8.2, 95% CI 3.1-21.7), suboptimal glycemic control (HbA1c 8.5 ± 1.8% vs. 7.4 ± 1.4%; p=0.002), alongside rural residence and female predominance amplifying regimen complexity. Dominant classes included antidiabetics (94.7%; metformin 82%, glimepiride 65.3%, insulin 28%), antihypertensives (78.7%; atenolol 52%), prokinetics (58%; domperidone 45.3%), and lipid-lowering agents (62%; atorvastatin 52%), with gastroparesis uniquely inflating pill burden via erratic absorption risks. Adverse sequelae were stark: major/minor DDIs in 65.2% vs. 13.2% (p=0.001; e.g., glimepiride-β-blocker hypoglycemia potentiation), probable/definite ADRs in 27.7% vs. 5.3% (p=0.001), hypoglycemi…

URTICARIA — A HOMOEOPATHIC PERSPECTIVE
type: item
description: Urticaria, commonly referred to as hives, is a frequently encountered dermatological disorder characterized by the sudden onset of transient wheals accompanied by intense itching, erythema, and localized swelling of the skin. These eruptions may vary in size and distribution, often appearing and disappearing within hours, yet recurring unpredictably. While many cases are acute and self-limiting, chronic or recurrent urticaria poses a therapeutic challenge and can markedly affect a patient’s physical comfort, sleep quality, emotional stability, and overall quality of life. The underlying mechanism involves mast cell degranulation and the release of mediators such as histamine, leading to increased vascular permeability and dermal edema. A wide range of precipitating factors—including infections, dietary triggers, drugs, climatic variations, stress, and autoimmune processes—may contribute to the onset or persistence of symptoms. Proper evaluation requires careful clinical assessment and differentiation from other dermatological and allergic conditions. Homoeopathy approaches urticaria through an individualized framework that considers the totality of symptoms, constitutional tendencies, and miasmatic background. Instead of merely suppressing cutaneous manifestations, it seeks to address the deeper susceptibility that predisposes the individual to recurrent episodes. Remedy selection is guided by characteristic modalities, concomitant symptoms, mental and emotional traits, and causative factors. This article explores the clinical presentation, pathophysiological aspects, differential diagnosis, and homoeopathic management of urticaria, blending classical principles with practical case-based insights to provide a comprehensive understanding of the condition.

ORAL FILM DRUG DELIVERY SYSTEMS FOR BETAHISTINE DIHYDROCHLORIDE: CURRENT PERSPECTIVES AND FUTURE DIRECTIONS
type: item
description: The development of fast-dissolving oral thin films has recently followed the progression of dosage forms from straight forward ordinary tablets and capsules to modified release tablets and capsules, oral disintegrating tablets, and wafers. A hydrophilic polymer used in fast- dissolving oral thin films quickly hydrates or adheres when applied on the tongue or in buccal cavity. These films melt or disintegrate in a matter of seconds, releasing the active ingredient without need for drinking or chewing. A drug-containing thin film with surface area of 5 to 20 cm2 is called an oral dissolving film. The maximum single dose of the drugs that can be loaded is 30mg. As opposed to tablets, several pharmaceutical companies are now producing oral thin films that dissolve quickly. Films combine the benefits of liquid dosage forms with those of tablets, such as exact dose and simple administration (easy swallowing, rapid bioavailability. At the same time, it gives a general overview of crucial formulation design factors that have an impact on thin films, such as thin film design, anatomical and physiological constraints, choice of the best manufacturing processes, characterization techniques, and the physicochemical properties of drugs and polymers. Fast-dissolving or al thin films can be used for a variety of purposes, including sublingual and gastro-retentive delivery systems in addition to buccal fast-dissolving systems. Future uses might involve employing laminated multilayer films to combine incompatible active medicinal components into a single product.

ASSESS THE EFFECTIVENESS OF PLANNED TEACHING ON KNOWLEDGE REGARDING PREVENTION AND MANAGEMENT OF SCABIES AMONG PRIMARY SCHOOL TEACHERS IN A SELECTED SCHOOL
type: item
description: Background: The Latin term "scab ere," which means to scratch, is the source of the English word "scabies." The name Sarcoptesscabiei comes from the Greek words "sark" (to smite or to cut) An exceedingly tiny arthropod is known as Sarcoptesscabiei or Acarusscabiei. The bare eye can hardly make it out. Sized at 0.4 millimetres. It is an ectoparasite of humans, where it breeds and lives while spreading the scabies disease. The arachnid Sarcoptes scabiei and the Itch mites are responsible for the highly contagious skin condition known as scabies. Itching that is worse at night, papules, vesicles, and pustules in the preferred site are used to diagnose Objectives: 1) To evaluate the pre-test knowledge level in regards to preventing and managing scabies amid the primary school teachers. 2) To evaluate the effectiveness of teaching that is planned in regards to preventing and managing scabies amid the school teachers of the chosen primary school. 3) To identify the post-test knowledge level in regards to preventing and managing scabies amid the primary school teachers with the chosen demographic variables. Methods and Materials: - In this study, a quantitative research style was employed. The sample size for this quantitative research is 43. The research will be carried out at a primary school in a rural community. Result: Primary school instructors from a selected school are being studied in this study.

A STUDY ON DEEP VEIN THROMBOSIS INDUCED BY EXCESS ORAL CONTRACEPTIVE USE AND ITS APPROACH THROUGH HOMOEOPATHY
type: item
description: Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is an obstructive disease with a hindering venous reflux mechanism. DVT usually involves the lower limb venous system, with a clot formation originating in a deep calf vein and propagating proximally.12 It is estimated that approximately 1 million people are diagnosed with DVT each year. Approximately 3,00,000 dies of venous thromboembolic complications, which exceeds that of acute myocardial infraction or acute stroke.3 The estimated incidence in the population at risk, adjusted for age and sex, is higher in men (130 events on 1,00,000 subjects) than in women (110 on 1,00,000 subjects). In fact, in younger populations, women have higher incidence of thromboembolic events linked to hormonal fluctuations that change the ratio between estrogen and progesterone, as occurs during pregnancy and puerperium.1 Birth control pills can slightly increase the risk of developing blood clots, including DVT. The risk of developing a blood clot is highest in the first year of oral contraceptive pill (OCP) use. The risk decreases after the first year but remains until the pills are stopped.14 women taking OCCP have higher risk of developing deep vein thrombosis (DVT), usually in the legs, and this may lead to pulmonary embolism, a serious complication. For every 1,00,000 women aged 15-44 years not taking pill, approximately 5-10 are likely to develop blood clot in 1 year and this risk increases 3-4 times in those using second-generation OCCP and 6-8 times in those using third-generation OCCP.

IDENTIFYING COMMON PROTEIN TARGET FOR COVID-19 AND EOSINOPHILIC GRANULOMATOSIS WITH POLYANGIITIS USING NETWORK ANALYSIS
type: item
description: Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19), caused by SARS-CoV-2 infection and a rare autoimmune disorder Eosinophilic Granulomatosis with Polyangiitis (EGPA) share key immune dysregulation mechanisms despite their distinct pathologies. This study uncovers the relationship between genes involved in COVID-19 and EGPA by network analysis approach to identify common potential therapeutic targets for the conditions . By comparing disease-associated genes retrieved from databases CTD, GeneCards and DisGeNET, 154 common genes expressed in both the disease conditions were identified. Protein-Protein Interaction network analysis revealed 10 hub proteins, which are central to immune responses, inflammation, and cytokine signaling pathways. Functional enrichment analyses of these genes using databases Gene Ontology (GO), KEGG, and Reactome, highlight shared pathways such as IL-6 and TNF signaling, which are critical in both diseases. Transcription factor network analysis pinpointed NF-κB as a central regulator of inflammatory responses. This research underscores the interconnectedness of COVID-19 and EGPA, emphasizing potential therapeutic targets like NF-κB for managing inflammation and disease progression in both conditions.

HISTOPATHOLOGICAL EFFECTS OF WATER POLLUTANTS ON CYPRINUS CARPIO
type: item
description: Ecological environments, as well as human populations, are greatly affected by water pollution, which is a widespread environmental issue. The common carp (Cyprinus carpio) is often utilized as a sentinel species to assess the impacts of aquatic pollutants. In this study, the impacts of water pollutants, especially lambda-cyhalothrin, on tissue structures of Cyprinus carpio, specifically the gills, liver, kidneys, and intestines, are investigated. In a controlled 30-day laboratory exposure study involving two groups, namely one treated with contaminated water of the Narmada River located near Bhopal, India, and another kept in pristine water, after the period of exposure, histopathological techniques were used to analyze tissue-level changes and organ injuries. The treated group had major pathological changes of necrosis, epithelial hyperplasia, and cellular degeneration, where the maximum injury was noted to be in the gills. The liver, kidneys, and intestines of the exposed fish also exhibited major structural abnormalities from the control group. These observations highlight the adverse effect of pesticide contamination on the health of fish and underscore the utility of histopathology as a diagnostic technique in aquatic toxicology.

ROLE OF PANCHKARMA IN THE MANAGEMENT OF DUSHTA VRANA
type: item
description: Dushta Vrana, as classified in Ayurveda, represents chronic non-healing wounds that persist as a major healthcare challenge worldwide, negatively affecting patient quality of life and increasing healthcare costs. Traditional approaches fail to achieve full recovery, so Ayurvedic medicine presents an integrated healthcare system based on doshic balance and systematic purification principles. The foundational therapeutic practice of Panchkarma in Ayurvedic medicine includes Vamana, Virechana, Basti, Nasya, and Raktamokshana. These five core procedures support detoxification, rejuvenation, and the targeted treatment of pathophysiological factors underlying chronic wounds. This study gathers knowledge from ancient medical texts with present-day medical studies to conduct a comprehensive analysis of the Panchkarma treatment approaches for Dushta Vrana. Research evidence demonstrates that these therapeutic practices possess anti-inflammatory properties along with antimicrobial effects, immunomodulation, and the ability to quicken both wound healing and tissue restoration processes. The current studies are constrained in their field by inconsistent methodologies and insufficient large-scale controlled research protocols. Manufacturing Panchkarma therapies faces barriers because standard protocols need refinement and healthcare providers need training, and these approaches need to connect to standard medical practices. Several treatments implemented simultaneously from Panchkarma and wound treatment traditions create an integrated healthcare solution capable of integrating traditional medical approaches with contemporary medical systems. Research collaboration between different disciplines, together with improvements in regulations, must continue to establish Panchkarma as a complete solution for chronic wound treatment.

IN-SITU OPHTHALMIC GELS: A SMART APPROACH TO OCULAR DRUG DELIVERY — A REVIEW
type: item
description: The eye is the body's most delicate organ. Because of the eye's complex anatomy, small absorptive surface, low transparency of the cornea, lipophilicity of the corneal epithelium, pre-corneal loss (from nasolacrimal drainage), bonding of the drug with proteins in tear fluid, blinking, low conjunctival sac capacity, and ultimately poor ocular therapy, designing an ocular drug delivery system is the most difficult task for pharmaceutical scientists. This overview discusses the polymers utilised, research advancements in the field, and the in situ gelling mechanism, which turns liquid formulations into gels under specific physiological or environmental conditions. In situ ocular gels for drug delivery go through this change when they come into touch with the ocular surface. Various processes, contingent on the gel's composition and intended characteristics, are responsible for this transformation. In situ gelling enhances drug retention, bioavailability, and contact time by causing the liquid formulation to solidify into a gel upon contact with ocular tissues. Common methods of in situ ocular gel formation include temperature-, pH-, and ion-induced gelation. These gels offer a versatile and efficient platform while resolving a number of issues with the present ocular therapeutic administration methods.

PHYTOCHEMICAL ANALYSIS OF MEDICINAL PLANTS WITH ANTIBACTERIAL PROPERTIES
type: item
description: The worldwide increase of antibiotic-resistant bacterial strains requires immediate development of alternative antimicrobial medicines. Medical plants possess therapeutic properties because of their bioactive phytochemicals which demonstrate antimicrobial action. Secondary metabolites produced by plants including alkaloids and flavonoids and tannins and saponins and terpenoids demonstrate inhibitory properties against different harmful microorganisms. The analysis of antibacterial medicinal plants in this study evaluates their potential to combat Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Staphylococcus aureus, and Escherichia coli bacterial infections. The conventional qualitative and quantitative techniques were used for phytochemical screening to detect important secondary metabolites. Scientists utilized the disc diffusion method to measure inhibition zone widths for evaluating antibacterial activities of these plant extracts. They conducted the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) assay to find the lowest effective concentration which halted bacterial growth. Plants containing elevated levels of alkaloids together with phenolic chemicals and flavonoids demonstrated the strongest antibacterial properties. Two of the selected plants demonstrated significant inhibitory properties against S. aureus and E. coli through their active compounds in Ocimum sanctum (holy basil) and Curcuma longa (turmeric). These findings demonstrate the potential of medicinal plants strong in phytochemicals as a viable natural antibacterial agent source. These bioactive substances work by disrupting bacterial membranes, inhibiting enzymes, and interfering with the creation of proteins. These plant-derived chemicals may be utilized as supplemental or alternative antimicrobial agents to treat bacterial infections, especially those brought on by drug-resistant strains, due to their natural origin and broad-spectrum activity. In order to create plant-based antibacterial medicines, more study on the separatio…

PHYTO-REMEDIES FOR SOIL RESTORATION: A DEEP DIVE INTO BRASSICA'S PLANT CAPABILITIES IN CADMIUM REMOVAL
type: item
description: One of the most critical environmental problems is heavy metal pollution, which is made worse by the impact of certain industries in certain nations. One of the primary hazardous heavy metals found in soil is cadmium (Cd). Soil cadmium pollution is a worldwide problem. All soils contain cadmium, a naturally occurring metal that comes from both geogenic and human sources. Cadmium has an impact on people, plants, and soil microorganisms. A disruption in the intake and translocation of mineral nutrients and a disruption in plant metabolism may cause Cd toxicity in crops, which can impede the growth and development of the plants. Some of the approaches used to remove heavy metal pollution from the air include physical, chemical, and biological. It is crucial to bear in mind that some of these have time or money limits. In situ, immobilization, phytoremediation, and natural approaches are the best ways to remove metal(loid) from the soil presently. Some of the remediation solutions included phytoremediation of Cd metal from Soil, highlighting the in-situ immobilization strategy as a particularly efficient way to remove Cd from soils. Heavy metals should not penetrate the atmosphere, established order, or exposure to people and animals as part of remediation activities at a contaminated site." All of these site-specific characteristics impact the treatment procedure applied at any particular site, including soil type, synthetic chemical type, and depth of contamination. In this study, we examine several molecular techniques for reducing Cd accumulation in grains and discuss new developments in the molecular processes of Cd accumulation in cereal crops
