Two hundred persons, randomly chosen out of 3,067 who had answered a headache questionnaire modified from Waters, were summoned to an interview and an examination performed by a neurologist. The aim was to obtain prevalence readings for different types of headaches in an unselected population. Simple blood studies and plain skull and cervical spine radiography were performed. The occurrence of headache was 77%, and the prevalence of migraine 9% in men and 28% in women. There was a higher prevalence of headache in women, accounted for solely by their higher frequency of vascular headaches, while the figure for tension headache was 35% for both sexes. Demographic factors did not influence the distribution of the headache types, except for a concentration of vascular headaches in women working in service occupations. A positive family history of migraine was reported significantly more often by persons with migraine than by others. The physical neurological examination, and the laboratory and X-ray investigations performed generally did not contribute to the diagnosis of the headache.

To determine the most useful clinical symptoms and signs for detection of pneumonia in children, we carried out a prospective clinical study at Queen Alia Hospital, Amman, on 147 children admitted between August 2002 and January 2003 with clinical pneumonia. All the children had chest X-rays, which were read by the same radiologist. The most sensitive and specific signs and symptoms for prediction of pneumonia were coughing, tachypnoea [respiratory rate > 50/min] and chest wall indrawing. We found that presence of tachypnoea and lower chest wall indrawing can detect most cases of pneumonia. If all clinical signs are negative, chest X-ray findings are unlikely to be positive

Manyasthamba (Cervical Spondylosis) is one among the Eighty Nanathmaja Vata Vyadhi’s. Due to the Nidanas (Etiology) like sleeping during day time, sitting and standing on irregular postures, constantly gazing upwards.Avarana is one of the pathological processes of Vata vitiation. Avarana is the disturbed movement of Vata due to obstruction by other factors in the body. Vata being aggravated, gets Avrutha by Kapha. Kaphavrutha Vata takes Ashraya (seat)in the Sira (arteries) and Snayu (Nerves) of Manya Pradesha  (Nape of the neck) and produces Lakshanas ( Symptoms)  like Sheetata ,Shopha (Swelling), Gaurava (Heaviness), Ruk (Pain) and Chesthastambha ( Lack of expression) we can correlate cervical spondylosis with Manyastambha which has dominancy of Vata-Kaphaja Dosha.    Cervical spondylosis is a degenerative disease of cervical spine. It is age related degenerative disease but the incidence is increasing day by day due to strenuous activities, faulty postures and long hours desk work cervical spine go through various wear and tear processes because of which the gap between the two vertebrae reduces and the nerve passing through them get compressed and eliciting various symptoms like paraesthesia, radiating pain, numbness in hand, headache, dizziness. Modern medicine has no promising remedy for this disease yet. The general treatment protocol for Avarana is pacification of Vata along with cleansing of channels and treatment of encroaching Dosha. Nasya is considered as the best procedures for disease of head and neck.  Ayurvedic classics has mentioned Nasya (earrhines) as the treatment for Urdhva Jatru Gata Vikara (supraclavicular region). Nasya(earrhines) karma has potent effect on Shroto Shodhan (Cleansing of micro channels) and to retard the Dhatukshaya (Depletion of Dhatus).

Degenerative Disorder

Human life has become more stressful these days. Sedentary lifestyle, occupational factors are playing a large role in increased prevalence of the common degenerative disorder of Cervical Spine i.e. Cervical Spondylosis. In Ayurvedic view, it can be correlated with Manyastambha which is a Vataja Nanatmaka Vikara. Degeneration means Apatarpana in Ayurveda. It needs to be treated with Brimhana Therapy. And Urdhvajatrugata Vyadhis are best treated with Nasya according to Ayurveda. So, taking all these factors into consideration, Brimhana Nasya Karma with Ksheerabala Taila was tried to alleviate the signs and symptoms of patients having Cervical Spondylosis. Assessment was done with regard to pain in neck and shoulder, tingling and numbness in hands and headache alongwith various angles of rotation of neck. The data was collected before and after administration of Nasya karma. The 15 days trial was proved to be significantly efficacious in reducing signs and symptoms of cervical spondylosis.

Antibacterial Drug

The problem of rational antibiotic therapy of pneumonia is one of the most relevant in modern medicine. So far, a large number of the factors have been identified that determine the optimal quality of antimicrobial therapy: the maximum effectiveness with the lowest toxicity of drugs should be combined with their proper cost. In order to study the clinical efficacy and therapeutic tolerability of the drug class of macrolides, clarithromycin for parenteral use in the treatment of patients with community−acquired pneumonia, 20 patients were examined. All the patients had clinical symptoms of severe infectious lesions of the lower respiratory tract. The complex therapy (detoxification, mucolytic drugs, multivitamins, metabolites) included "Clarithromycin−MB", which was administered intravenously for 60 minutes at a dose of 500 mg 2 times a day for 7−10 days. The clinical effectiveness of antibacterial therapy was assessed by the dynamics of the activity of the inflammatory process in the lungs. For this purpose, the following clinical and laboratory parameters characterizing the activity of the inflammatory process (temperature response, tachycardia, respiratory rate, leukocytosis, number of immature granulocytes, change in erythrocyte sedimentation rate), severity of pain, radiological changes in the lungs were determined. Macrolide "Clarithromycin−MB" in a parenteral form is a highly effective antibacterial drug for the treatment of community−acquired pneumonia with severe course. Positive dynamics of clinical manifestations of the disease was observed on the third day from the beginning of therapy. "Clarithromycin−MB" has good therapeutic tolerability, the dosage regimen allows to maintain the required concentration in the site of inflammation, which affects the clinical and bacteriological efficacy of treatment of the patients with community−acquired pneumonia. Key words: community−acquired pneumonia, macrolides, "Clarithromycin−MB".

Cervical spondylosis is one of the degenerative conditions of the cervical spine. It is commonly seen in old age, but nowadays it is nearly ubiquitous in young and middle-aged people. The symptoms consist of par-aesthesia and pain in the distribution of fifth to eighth cervical dermatomes, pain being felt most frequently over the shoulder, arm, scapular region, forearm and hands. In young subjects, bony outgrowth may not be evident, but loss of the cervical curvature caused by spasm of neck muscles can be taken as a suggestive sign. The presentations of signs and symptoms of both diseases have close resemblance, so Vishvachi can be correlated with Cervical Spondylosis. Improper sitting postures and continuous work create pressure and stress that cause injury to spine, which may play an important role in producing this condition. NasyaKar-ma is considered as prime line of treatment in Urdhwa Jjathrugata Vikaras and could be effective, eco-nomical as well as affordable treatment modality. Prasarini Taila is indicated in all Vata Vikaras especially in Vishvachi. Keeping these points in mind, a comparative clinical study of different schedules of Marsha Nasya with Prasarini Taila in the management of Cervical Spondylosis is taken.
