Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is an autoimmune disease that affects the joints. Age, gender, genetics, and environmental exposure are all factors (cigarette smoking, air pollutants, and occupational). If untreated, felty syndrome, rheumatoid vasculitis, and irreversible joint damage might occur, necessitating splenectomy. Because there is no cure for RA, treatment seeks to reduce pain and prevent further damage. To develop effective RA treatments, researchers must first understand how the disease advances in people and how pathogenic pathways influence this progression. Modern pharmacologic therapy have made tremendous progress in obtaining illness remission without joint deformity (including conventional and biological treatments as well as novel potential small-molecule disease-modifying drugs). Despite this, many RA patients do not respond well to conventional treatments, necessitating the development of novel drugs. This comprehensive review of current advancements covers RA causation, disease-modifying drugs, and prospective RA therapeutics. This section summarises the various RA-related therapies available in the past and now.
The medical term for elevated blood pressure is hypertension (HTN). It's harmful since it strains the heart and increases the risk of heart disease and stroke as well as atherosclerosis (hardening of the arteries). Congestive heart failure, renal damage, and blindness are all possible outcomes of HTN. Many adverse effects are commonly associated with traditional antihypertensives. For the most part, people in underdeveloped nations prefer herbal medicines for primary health care since they are more tolerable by the human body and have less adverse effects. A great deal of effort has been made over the last three decades to discover native plants that have hypotensive and antihypertensive medicinal properties. It has been established that some of these medicinal herbs have hypotensive and antihypertensive properties, whereas others have been discredited. In order to evaluate the efficacy and clarify the safety profile of such herbal treatments for their antihypertensive potential, additional scientific study must be conducted to combine ayurveda expertise with modern medicine.
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.
