The “Coronavirus disease 19 (COVID-19)” is caused by “Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2)”, a newly discovered member of the Coronaviridae family of viruses which is a highly communicable. There is no effective medical treatment till date for Coronavirus disease hence prevention is the best way to keep disease away. Rasayana proved to be highly efficacious and cost effective for the Prevention and Control of viral infections when vaccines and standard therapies are lacking. Rasayana Chikitsa is one of the eight branches of Ashtanga Ayurveda which helps to maintain healthy life style. Rasayana improves immunity and performs many vital functions of human body. Vyadhikshamatva that is immune mechanism of the body is involved in Prevention of the occurrence of a new disease and it also decreases the virulence and progression of an existing disease. In COVID-19 the Respiratory system mainly get affected which is evident from its symptoms like cold, cough and breathlessness. Here the drugs help in enhancing immune system and strengthening functions of Respiratory system can be useful. For this purpose, the Rasayana like Chyavanprasha, Agastya Haritaki, Pippali Rasayana, Guduchi, Yashtimadhu, Haridra, Ashwagandha, Tulsi are used. Rasayana working on Respiratory system are best for Prevention of Coronavirus and boosting immune system. Rasayana Chikitsa can be effective in the Prevention as well as reducing symptoms of COVID-19.

And Diffusion

During resting breathing, expiration is characterized by the narrowing of the vocal folds which, by increasing the expiratory resistance, raises mean lung volume and airway pressure. This is even more pronounced in the neonatal period, during which expirations with short complete airway closure are commonly occurring. We asked to which extent differences in expiratory flow pattern may modify the inspiratory impedance of the respiratory system. To this aim, newborn puppies, piglets, and adult rats were anesthetized, paralyzed, and ventilated with different expiratory patterns, (a) no expiratory load, (b) expiratory resistive load, and (c) end-inspiratory pause. The stroke volume of the ventilator and inspiratory and expiratory times were maintained constant, and the loads were adjusted in such a way that inflation always started from the resting volume of the respiratory system. After 1 min of each ventilatory pattern, mean inspiratory impedance and compliance of lung and respiratory system were measured. The values were unchanged or minimally altered by changing the type of ventilation. We conclude that the expiratory laryngeal loading is not primarily aimed to decrease the work of breathing. It is conceivable that the expiratory pattern is oriented to increase and control mean airway pressure in the regulation of pulmonary fluid reabsorption, distribution of ventilation, and diffusion of gases.

AbstractAsthma development and persistence is tightly linked to respiratory viruses. Viral presence is usually interrogated with targeted approaches during periods of disease activity and/or infections, thus neglecting viral occurrence during steady states. We investigate the virome in the upper respiratory system of healthy and asthmatic preschool children during asymptomatic/non-infection periods using metagenomics. Children with asthma have a characteristically dysbiotic virome that correlates to disease severity and control. The major component of dysbiosis is bacteriophage deficiency, while eukaryotic viral presence is increased. At the metacommunity level, differential virus species co-occurrence patterns suggest a decrease of the microbiota community resilience in asthma. Viral dysbiosis is therefore a key characteristic of asthma pathophysiology.

Life of modern students has many requirements and obligations. They have a study, work, additional coursers. This leads to stress. Students violate sleep and nutrition very often. They have low motor activity. Modern students lack movements and positive emotions. Therefore, it is necessary to find methods for the prevention and control off stress. activity can help. Fitness is great as an exercise. Among the areas of fitness there are those that can withstand stress. For our work we have chosen Zumba fitness. Zumba is a fitness program on the basis of Latin and modern world rhythms. Very often this program is named the "hidden evening-party". She radically differs from other programs of the fitness. She is accessible, effective and extraordinarily emotional.  Them everybody can repeat. These employments do not need previous choreographic preparation. Very often on employments of Zumba - fitness people cry out loudly during implementation of motions. The first by such method practices respiratory system. Secondly muscles of abs are works. And, in the end, people are delivered constraint and negative.

Oscillometry is a technique that measures the resistance (R) and the reactance (X) of the respiratory system. In humans, analysis of inspiratory and expiratory R and X allows to identify the presence of tidal expiratory flow limitation (EFLt). The aim of this study was to describe inspiratory and expiratory R and X measured by impulse oscillometry system (IOS) in horses with severe asthma (SEA) when in clinical remission (n = 7) or in exacerbation (n = 7) of the condition. Seven healthy, age-matched control horses were also studied. Data at 3, 5, and 7 Hz with coherence > 0.85 at 3 Hz and >0.9 at 5 and 7 Hz were considered. The mean, inspiratory and expiratory R and X and the difference between inspiratory and expiratory X (ΔX) were calculated at each frequency. The data from the three groups were statistically compared. Results indicated that in horses during exacerbation of severe asthma, X during expiratory phase is more negative than during inspiration, such as in humans in presence of EFLt. The evaluation of X during inspiration is promising in discriminating between horses with SEA in remission and control horses.

The study was conducted using the SF-36 questionnaire, which contains 36 questions and has been adapted and validated in our country. We studied the quality of life indicators in patients with industrial fbrogenic aerosols, patients with CPB, Sz, and PVDSE. The obtained data determine the need to include in the plan of outpatient and inpatient examination and observation of patients with occupational diseases of the respiratory system in addition to the generally accepted methods of diagnosis and control of changes in the quality of life parameters that directly depend on the severity of the disease, the severity of clinical and functional changes.
