“…DISCUSSION This study demonstrates that peripheral arterial disease and other arterial conditions that require treatment as seen in a large teaching hospitaI in Hong Kong were uncommon, but atherosclerotic patients still formed the largest group. Our findings contrast with those of Sripad and Basu (1973) in India, where atherosclerotic arterial disease is a rarity and inff ammatory disease is more frequently encountered. The reasons for our different findings remain speculative.…”

“…ARTERIAL disease is generally regarded as uncommon in Asia (Eastcott, 1973). For example, Sripad and Basu (1973) found only I 3 patients with atherosclerotic peripheral arterial disease over a 10-year period in a large hospital in India which admits 11,000 patients annually. Pulseless disease of Takayasu, and Buerger's disease, though not common, are conditions which are well described in certain parts of this region (Kradjian et a&, 1971 ;McKusick et alii, 1962;Shionoya et alii, 1974).…”

Over a 12-month period, 58 patients presented with arterial disease or other arterial problems to the University Surgical Unit, Queen Mary Hospital, Hong Kong. These patients accounted for only 0.6% of this Unit's annual admissions. I n spite of the reported rarity of atherosclerotic arterial disease in this part of the world, this was the cause of the disease in nearly half of our patients. Abdominal aortic aneurysm was the single most common condition encountered. I n at least one-third o f patients with atheromatous disease of the aortoiiiac segment, chronic peptic ulcers were demonstrated. It is concluded that peripheral arterial disease is rare, but atherosclerosis is the most common cause.

“…Cases from our Institute have previously been presented in the Australian literature (Schrire, 1967). Writing on vascular disease in the tropics, Sripad and Basu (1973) used the term Juvenile Obliterative Arteritis and they divided this into Type 1 (Arch), Type I1 (Segmental and/or abdominal aortic) and Type 111 (combined). In an autopsy study of 76 cases Nasu (1975) used the term Takayasu's Truncoarteritis and found a maximum incidence between 20 -40 years with predominance in women.…”

“…Idiopathic Arteritis of the aorta, the proximal portions of its main branches and of the pulmonary arteries in young patients is not uncommon in the Orient and the southern hemisphere as shown by reports from Japan (Nasu, 1975), India (Sripad and Basu, 1973), South America (Lupi et 02.. 1977) and South Africa (Joffe, 1965;Gotsman et al , 1967).…”

SUMMARY Idiopathic arteritis of children is a widespread condition but it is most commonly reported in the'non‐white races. It affects the large conducting arteries and, in childhood, the descending thoracic and abdominal aorta are mostly involved. The term Juvenile Main Vessel Arteritis is suggested rather than Takayasu's Arteritis as the cases described bear little relationship to the condition Takayasu originally reported. In non‐caucasian children it may be an important cause of hypertension, ranking only second to renal parenchymal disease.

“…Tea polyphenols are highly extracted in aqueous acetone. Its solubility in water is low when compared to its solubility in organic solvents [9,10]. On the other hand, chlorogenic acid, the major polyphenol in sunflower seed has high solubility in aqueous solution like water and very less in organic solvents.…”

Tea, one of the most popular beverages, has been consumed for thousands of years for their flavors and health benefits. Polyphenols are the flavanoid and phenolic acids in tea that contribute to health benefits. There are more than 45 polyphenols in tea. In this review, the structure, health benefits and suitable solvent selection for extraction of these polyphenols is covered. Further the calculation of activity coefficient of tea polyphenol is also done. This study helps us to understand the suitability of a solvent and its temperature dependency in its extraction process from tea leaves.
