“…There was a signifi cant improvement in all variables studied in the patient with obesity using IYNM. Previous studies found that Naturopathy and yoga-based intervention promises better reduction of risk for cardiovascular diseases among the patients with metabolic disorders [5][6][7][8]. We also found that IYNM protocol was easy to adhere and the results might be sustainable if he continued the practice daily.…”

A 45-year-old male patient with the nature of sedentary lifestyle, diagnosed with obesity (BMI-33.2 kg/m2) since 2013, was visited for Integrated Yoga and Naturopathy Management (IYNM) for the weight reduction in our hospital on November 2019. He had mild pain over the both knees with sleeping disturbances. We advised him a tailor made individualized protocol for the weight management for the period of 6 months. The results showed reduction in weight (107.9kg to 90.6kg), Body Mass Index (BMI) (33.2kg/m2 to 29.32kg/m2), total cholesterol (209mg% to 185mg%), triglycerides (172mg% to 113mg%), Low Density Lipoprotein (LDL) (102mg% to 94mg%), and High Density Lipoprotein (HDL) (44mg% to 48mg%). His knee pain minimized on discharge as observed on a Visual Analog Scale (7 to 3 points). He had an improved feeling of wellness and overall functional health. This case report suggests that lifestyle change in the form of IYNM is useful in the management of Obesity.

Background: A huge population in India is at high-risk of developing thyroid related disorders. Unhealthy lifestyle (lack of physical activity and consumption of junk food) is common among Indian population. Yoga is a form of physical activity and helps prevent many lifestyle disorders. The research question to be addressed by this randomised controlled trial (RCT) is whether yoga based intervention is effective in preventing overt hypothyroidism among sub clinical hypothyroid people in India as compared to untreated participants.Methods: This is a single-blinded, two-arm, parallel-group RCT. Eligible participants should be aged 21-59 years, suffering from sub clinical hypothyroidism (serum thyroid stimulating hormone i.e. TSH level 4.2 mIU/l >TSH level <10 mIU/l; T3 and T4 within normal range). At least 100 participants will be randomised either to the intervention group or the control group. Intermediate follow up at 3 month and final follow-up will be at six month post intervention. This study is designed to study the effect of yoga intervention on biochemical tests {thyroid function tests (fT3, fT4 and TSH)}, physical parameters (waist circumference, waist hip ratio, fat percentage and BMI) and psychological parameters {quality of life (QOL) as assessed by World Health Organization (WHO)-QOL, sleep quality (assessed by PSQI) and depression (assessed by BDI-II)} in sub-clinical hypothyroid patients.Conclusions: We are now conducting a RCT in Delhi, India to assess the efficacy of yoga in preventing progression of subclinical- hypothyroidism to overt hypothyroidism. If the yoga intervention used in this study is effective, it will be a low-cost feasible treatment for subclinical hypothyroidism in India.Trial registration: Trial registration number is CTRI/2020/03/024023.

Dyslipidaemia an ever increasing menace emerging out of present lifestyle, is one of the major risk factors for developing Cardio-vascular abnormalities like Coronary Artery Disease (CAD), Myocardial infarction (MI), Cardiac arrest and is often associated with other metabolic disorders. Clinicians across the globe are trying hard to combat it. We have presented a Scientometric analysis of dyslipidaemia which includes Ayurvedic perspective also. Objective: In this study we intended to study detailed Scientometric and Bibliometric study on dyslipidaemia literature. Materials and methods: The data was collected using databases of Science- direct and Scopus, using the keywords ‘Dyslipidaemia’, ‘Dyslipidaemia in Ayurveda’, ‘Dyslipidaemia in India’,‘Medoroga in Ayurveda’ and ‘Medoraga in India’. Results: A total of 85,500 items were retrieved from ‘science direct’ website, where majority of them were research articles and maximum publications were from the last decade indicating the recent enhancement in prevalence and awareness. A volley of research papers have come up with multiple approaches which include modern pharmacological measures, Ayurveda remedies and other herbal medicines along with non-pharmacological approaches like Yoga and Pranayama. Newer therapeutic agents like Ezetimibe, proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9 (PCSK9) monoclonal antibodies, PCSK9 small interference RNA (siRNA), and bempedoic acid, when added to the commonly used statin therapy have shown additional improvement to CV outcomes. Recent advances have come up with hepatocyte-specific targeting modifications and have shown promising lipid lowering effects. Conclusion: Our study was probably the first such kind of work in field of dyslipidaemia which includes publications related to Ayurveda and other herbal remedies also. It shows the ever rising trends in the publications related to dyslipidaemia and its relation to other metabolic disorders in recent years. The major concern is the progression in cases of dyslipidaemia and its cardiovascular outcomes despite of having substantial research work and awareness in different streams of medicine. We must focus on the multifactorial approach encouraging behavioural, dietary and pharmacological control of cholesterol and sensitize the masses about its serious consequences. A cumulative approach including modern advances with much safer herbal remedies and practice of Yogasana and Pranayama is the need of hour and may probably bring the best solution.
