Unani system of medicine is a complete medical system which particularly works on the bases of holistic approach to deal with the various states of health and disease. Its scientific principles and fundamentals based on certain theories, philosophies of nature (Tabi'at) and temperament (Mizaj) works as a rule for proper diagnosis and treatment modalities and offer preventive plus curative health care of whole personality rather than taking a reductionist approach towards disease. This review paper emphasises on the concept of Taqashshur-al-Jild (Psoriasis) in Unani terms and evaluates that it is a chronic humoral disease that occurs due to the alteration in the quality and quantity of morbid material beneath the skin and also claims for thriving treatment of the diseases without any unwanted effects.
Necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC) is primarily a disease process of the gastrointestinal (GI) tract of premature neonates that results in inflammation and bacterial invasion of the bowel wall. It is the most common gastrointestinal (GI) emergency in neonatal intensive care units (NICUs), making it one of the leading causes of long-term disability in preterm infants. Despite advances in the care of premature infants, NEC remains one of the leading causes of morbidity and mortality in this population. It occurs in 1-5% of all neonatal intensive care admissions and 5-10% of all very low birth weight (<1500 g) infants. Necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC) is primarily a disease of premature infants, but may also be present in 10% of term and near term babies. Preterm infants show delayed colonization by "healthy commensal" organisms, especially bifidobacteria and lactobacilli. Data suggest that low colonization of Bifidobacterium and Lactobacillus in preterm Very Low Birth Weight (VLBW) infants may serve as a predisposing factor in microbial infection and NEC. The presence of a higher proportion of Proteobacteria has an association with faecal microbiome among preterm infants. Thus, the focus of this review is to provide an in-depth summary of the current knowledge regarding its association with faecal microbiome among preterm infants. Different search engines were carefully employed in analyzing scientific articles, journals, and online published data. Preventing NEC is instrumental in decreasing the morbidity and mortality from this gastrointestinal emergency. Human milk (breastfeeding) has been proved to be protective against NEC likewise probiotic supplementation has reduced both incidence and severity of necrotising enterocolitis in preterm neonates. Also, the intervention of surgery, laparotomy andthe use of stem cells in clinical neonatology is therapeutic options with huge potential.With its multifactorial pathogenesis, disease prevention remains a challenge, although, probiotic supplementation has reduced both incidence and severity of necrotising enterocolitis in preterm neonates.
<p>Among all the diseases of gastrointestinal disorders haemorrhoid is the commonest and troublesome disease. Haemorrhoids are dilated veins within the anal canal. The condition becomes worse after thrombosis and strangulation of the pile mass. Urgent surgical intervention is required in all the cases. Patient strucks in serious woe and seeks urgent surgical attention. Leeches can be used as a successful tool in this situation for the purpose of bloodletting as accumulation of morbid humor is the main cause of haemorrhoid in Unani system of medicine. In present case study, a patient of thrombosed pile mass was cured by Irsale Alaq<em> </em>(leech therapy).</p>
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
