Dyslipidemia is a condition characterised by an excess of potentially atherogenic lipids and lipoproteins. Dyslipidemia as a disease is not directly described in Unani texts. Clinical manifestations of dyslipidemia, on the other hand, are closely associated with signs and symptoms of cold temperament derangement (Su-e-Mizaj Barid Maddi) caused by a disturbance in the kamiyat (quantity) and kafiyat (quality-composition) of Ratubat al-tajawif or Ratubat-ul-uruq (internal environment of the body) or a disturbance in the homeostatic condition of the internal. This comes under the heading of Huzoom-e-Kabidi abnormalities as the primary root cause of dyslipidemia. Derangements in the cold temperament (Su-e-Mizaj Barid Maddi) and Huzoom-e-Kabidi, which have been thoroughly explained in famous books by eminent Unani scholars such as Zakaria Rhazi, Ibn-e-Sina, Rabban Tabri, Ali Ibne-Abbas Majusi, and Hakim Akbar Arzani. This review article identifies observations from Unani literature that describe cold temperament derangement due to Huzoom-e-Kabidi abnormality and relates them to the clinical presentation of dyslipidemia in conventional medicine. We have also explained about how all these indications are managed in Unani medicine.
Cardiovascular disease is the leading cause of illness and death across world widely. Lipid and lipoprotein metabolism disorder like dyslipidemia patients may prone to develop premature atherosclerosis. Types of dyslipidemia are hypertriglyceridemia, hypercholesterolemia, combined hyperlipidemia, and low levels of high-density lipoprotein cholesterol. Hypercholesterolemia can causes atherosclerosis and hypertriglyceridemia can consequence in pancreatitis. The laboratory findings are beneficial in the analysis and controlling of Dyslipidemia encompass assessment of serum cholesterol, serum triglycerides, serum high-density lipoprotein cholesterol, and serum low-density lipoprotein cholesterol by directly and through calculation. Laboratory investigation which are helpful to eliminate secondary causes of Dyslipidemia are assessment of TSH, Blood sugar levels, liver function test, serum creatinine, and plasma and urine protein level.
Background: Dyslipidemia is a significant modifiable risk factor for cardiovascular disease. In type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) patients, elevated low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) levels were associated with an increased risk of ischemic stroke and an increased risk of cardiovascular mortality independent of LDL-C levels. The nutritional needs of the body have been met based on demand, and pharmacotherapy has been avoided to protect the body from any side effects or adverse effects. Methods: This paper is a case study of patient with high lipid profile level. Patient recommended opting Dieto-therapy with modulation in dietary habits for one month with fortnightly follow up for routine check-up. Results: After one month of changing his diet pattern in terms of quality and quantity, his lipid profile started to improve. Conclusions: It is fair to conclude that the concept of dieto-therapy in UMS has a solid base for confirming safe and effective in the management of dyslipidemia.
Background and objectives: Gastritis is a painful or inflammatory state of the stomach and the mucosa covering it. The most common cause of gastritis is helicobacter pylorus. It is caused by certain infection, or by the routine use of antiinflammatory painkiller. Unani Physician has identified various medicinal products in classical text indicated for the treatment of gastritis. Therefore, a clinical trial was conducted to evaluate the clinical efficacy and safety of Unani Formulation in gastritis on scientific parameters. Methods: The study was designed as single blind pilot study on 12 patients of gastritis. Unani Formulation (Amla-2 part, Asl-Us-Soos-2 part, and Badiyan-2part) was given in the form of powder at the dose of 6 g twice a day after meal for the period of 28 days. All the patients of were assessed weekly on subjective parameters (at 0, 7th, 14th , 21th, and 28th day) whereas objective parameters were assessed before and after the treatment. The outcome of intervention was analyzed using appropriate statistical methods. Results: The study effects on subjective parameters like pain in abdomen, epigastric burning, nausea & vomiting and early satiety were found significantly reduced significantly. The objective parameter VAS and 5 PLS was found highly significant when compared before and after with p<0.0001. The results were analyzed after using paired ‘t’ test. Interpretation & Conclusion: The findings about the both parameters (subjective and objective) that the ‘Unani Formulation is effective gastritis and the cure was significant. Safety parameters (SGOT, SGPT, Blood Urea and Serum Creatinine) were remains unchanged. Therefore, it can be concluded that the Unani Formulation is safe and effective in management of gastritis.
