Daun Gatal (Laportea spp) is one of the shrubs that are widely distributed in Papua from the coast to the mountains. Daun Gatal (Laportea spp) has been used for generations by the Papuan people as painkillers. Daun Gatal (Laportea spp) contains compounds monoxide, tryptophan, histidine, alkaloids, flavonoids, formic acid, and anthraquinones. This content is called "antacid" because it gives a sensation like being bitten by an ant. There are many itchy leaves in the village but often they are just left to dry, wither, die, and even be thrown away. The value of this leaf is very large if it is developed not only as an itchy leaf sheet but as a pharmaceutical product. (Simaremare, et al, 2019). This is supported by several research results stating that itchy leaf extract contains compounds of the alkaloid group, glycosides, steroids (Simaremare, 2014), also contains triterpenoid compounds and formic acid (Chrystomo, et al., 2016) and (Krisna and Santanina, 2019) which states that itchy leaves provide antibacterial activity. The type of research used is experimental research. The research design used was a randomized control group pretest and posttest design. The population in this study was white mice. The samples used in this study were white mice that had met the following inclusion and exclusion criteria. Inclusion criteria were female mice, bodyweight 20-30grams, age 2-4 months while the exclusion criteria. Included in the exclusion criteria in this study were mice that were sick or died in the study conditions. The results of the Extraction of Daun Gatal (Laportea Decumana), namely the itchy leaf sample that has been weighed at a concentration of 25% obtained from a mixture of itching leaf extract (25 grams) added with water (30 ml) produces 18.5 ml. Itchy leaf extract at a concentration of 50 % was obtained from a mixture of itchy leaf extract (50 grams) added with water (30 ml) to produce 20.1 ml. Gatak leaf extract at a concentration of 75% was obtained from a mixture of itching leaf extract (75 grams) added with water (30 ml) to produce 24.3 ml. The extraction method used is extracting the extract of itchy leaves. This method was chosen because the process is simple and does not involve heating so that it can prevent damage to chemical compounds that are not resistant to heating, especially flavonoids contained in itchy leaves. Based on the results of the data on the difference in wound diameter of mice, it showed that Treatment Group 1 with 25% itching leaf extract and Treatment Group 2 with 50% itching leaf extract almost had the same healing rate. Meanwhile, Treatment Group 3 with 75% itching leaf extract had the fastest healing rate among other concentrations. In contrast to Treatment Group 3, the control group had a much longer healing rate among other concentrations.

Amalina N, Suyatmi, Suparyanti EL. 2010. Effect of beluntas (Pluchea indica) leaf extract on mice spermatogenesis. Biofarmasi 8: 47-51. This research aimed to determine the effect of beluntas (Pluchea indica L.) leaf extract in habiting spermatogenesis. Flavonoids can inhibit aromatase enzyme that function to catalyze the conversion of androgens into estrogen so that the level of the testosterone hormone will increase. The high concentration of testosterone will affect on the feedback to the pituitary, that not releasing FSH and LH, so it will inhibit spermatogenesis. This research is an experimental research with post-test only controlled group design method, using male mice, 2-3 months age, weight 20-30 g, as many as 24 mice divided into 4 groups. The first group was a control group, the second group as treatment group I that given with 1.4 mg/20 g body weight beluntas extract, the third group as treatment group II that given with 2.8 mg/g body weight beluntas extract. The fourth group as treatment group III that given with 5.6 mg/g body weight beluntas extract. The treatment was given for 10 days after that the testes of mice were taken and from each testicle was made 3 slices and from each slice the most representative seminiferous tubule was taken for spermatid cells. So, each mice had 18 units of data would be analyzed. The data obtained were analyzed with Anova to determine the significant differences before and after the treatment of extract and to be compared the difference between four groups with Dunnet T3 test to determine the difference between each group. Based on the statistical test results with Dunnet T3, it showed a significant difference between the fours study groups, except between treatment groups I and II. This might be due to the effectiveness of the two doses equally so that by doubling the dose, it did not give a doubling effect on decreasing spermatids. The provision of beluntas leaf extract can cause a decrease in the number of spermatid cells in mice. The average spermatid cells number decreased with increasing beluntas leaf extract dose. The best dose for reducing the number of spermatids in this study was the dose in the treatment group III that was 5.6 mg/g body weight.

Background: Shoulder-hand syndrome (SHS) refers to a syndrome causing sudden edema, shoulder pain and limited hand function. Qingpeng ointment, a kind of Tibetan medicine, can reduce swelling, relieve pain, tonify stagnation and clear the meridians, which is consistent with the pathological mechanism of SHS after stroke. Therefore, if clinical trials can be used to explore the effectiveness of Qingpeng ointment for treatment of poststroke SHS and promote its application in clinical medicine, this is of specific significance for the treatment of poststroke SHS. Objective: To investigate the clinical efficacy and safety of Qingpeng ointment in the treatment of poststroke SHS. To provide an objective basis for a better therapeutic treatment for poststroke SHS. Method: A prospective, randomized, controlled study was conducted. This study recruited 120 patients with poststroke SHS who met the inclusion criteria. They were randomized into the treatment group and the control group, with 60 patients allocated to each group. The treatment group received routine medical treatment and rehabilitative care after using the Qingpeng ointment, while the patients in the control group received only routine treatment without the ointment. All patients received clinical assessment with the Visual Analogue Scale (VAS), measurement of the range of motion (ROM) of the upper-limb joints, the Fugl-Meyer Assessment of Upper Extremity (FMA-U) and the Modified Barthel Index Score (MBI) before and after the whole treatment. Results: After 4 weeks of treatment, the VAS scores of both groups were decreased significantly (P<0.05), and the difference between the two groups was statistically significant (P < 0.05). There is no statistical significance for the difference between the treatment group and control group in terms of the FMA-U and MBI scores and the forward bend, backward, outstretch, external rotation and pronation angles after treatment. The increases in the values of VAS, FMA-M and MBI in the treatment group were greater than those in the control group, and the difference was statistically significant (P < 0.05). The increases in the values of the forward bend, outreach and external rotation angles in the treatment group were greater than those in the control group, and the difference was statistically significant (P < 0.05). Conclusion: The treatment group showed better results than the control group in terms of the relief of pain symptoms, the improvement of motor function and the improvement of the activities of daily living for patients with shoulder-hand syndrome after cerebral hemorrhage. Qingpeng ointment is effective and safe in treating poststroke SHS.

To observe the difference in clinical effects of scalp-point cluster acupuncture combined with rehabilitation training in treating spastic paralysis of upper limbs after stroke. Using a randomized controlled design, 96 patients with upper limb spastic paralysis after stroke were randomly divided into two groups: treatment group (scalp acupuncture plus rehabilitation training group 48 cases), control group (rehabilitation training group 48 cases). After 2 courses of treatment, it was judged by observing clinical efficacy evaluation, Ashworth classification, and Fugl-Meyer (FMA) score. The total effective rate was 91.7% in the treatment group and 68.7% in the control group; the difference between the two groups was statistically significant (P <0.05). Before treatment, the difference in Ashworth classification between the two groups was not statistically significant (P> 0.05); after treatment, the difference between the two groups was statistically significant (P <0.01). After treatment, the difference between the two groups was statistically significant (P<0.05). The Fugl-Meyer (FMA) scores of the two groups of patients before treatment were comparable (P>0.05), and there were significant differences between the two groups after treatment (P <0.05). The difference of Fugl-Meyer (FMA) scores between the two groups was statistically significant (P < 0.01). Scalp cluster acupuncture therapy is more effective than traditional acupuncture therapy alone in treating vertebral artery type cervical spondylosis. Scalp cluster acupuncture combined with Bobath technique is effective in treating spastic paralysis of upper limbs after stroke, and it is worthy of clinical application.

Background: The extract of Hibiscus sabdariffa commonly known as Sobo is widely consumed for its nutritional and health benefits. This study investigated the effect of aqueous leaf extract of  H. sabdariffa on anemic condition caused by phenylhydrazine in rats. Materials and Methods: Thirty (30) rats used for this study were divided into three groups of 10 rats each. Group 1 received distilled water and served as control. Group 2 received phenylhydrazine (40 mg/kg, i.p.). Group 3 was treated with phenylhydrazine (40 mg/kg, i.p.) 30 minutes prior to administration of (200 mg/kg, p.o.) aqueous extract of H. sabdariffa (Sobo) once daily for 14 days. At the end, 2 ml blood samples were collected through cardiac puncture into clean sample bottles containing ethylenediamine tetra acetic acid (EDTA) for hematological analyses. Results: Sobo significantly increased (P<0.05) hemoglobin (Hb) concentration and packed cell volume (PCV) in the phenylhdrazine-treated rats. Also, Sobo significantly (P<0.05) increased total white blood cell (TWBC) in phenylhydrazine administered rats. However, the extract did not produce any significant effect on mean corpuscular hemoglobin concentration (MCHC) relative to control and anemic groups. Conclusion: The findings from this study revealed that the aqueous extract of H. sabdariffa demonstrates anti-anemic effect in rats treated with phenylhydrazine, suggesting its ethno-pharmacological beneficial effect in anemic conditions.
