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.

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.

PURPOSE: To study the frequency of cervical spine dysfunction (CCD) signs and symptoms in subjects with and without temporomandibular disorder (TMD) and to assess the craniocervical posture influence on TMD and CCD coexistence. METHODS: Participants were 71 women (19 to 35 years), assessed about TMD presence; 34 constituted the TMD group (G1) and 37 comprised the group without TMD (G2). The CCD was evaluated through the Craniocervical Dysfunction Index and the Cervical Mobility Index. Subjects were also questioned about cervical pain. Craniocervical posture was assessed by cephalometric analysis. RESULTS: There was no difference in the craniocervical posture between groups. G2 presented more mild CCD frequency and less moderate and severe CCD frequency (p=0.01). G1 presented higher percentage of pain during movements (p=0.03) and pain during cervical muscles palpation (p=0.01) compared to G2. Most of the TMD patients (88.24%) related cervical pain with significant difference when compared to G2 (p=0.00). CONCLUSION: Craniocervical posture assessment showed no difference between groups, suggesting that postural alterations could be more related to the CCD. Presence of TMD resulted in higher frequency of cervical pain symptom. Thus the coexistence of CCD and TMD signs and symptoms appear to be more related to the common innervations of the trigeminocervical complex and hyperalgesia of the TMD patients than to craniocervical posture deviations.

In Vitro Comparison

Abstract Cervical spondylosis is the most common degenerative disorder affecting the cervical spine and is often treated surgically to prevent further neurological deterioration. However, clinical experience has shown that anterior cervical plating does not prevent construct failure in multi-level cervical corpectomy (Vaccaro et al., 1998). We have previously shown that anterior cervical plating reverses the load transfer through multi-level strut-grafts and may promote pistoning of these grafts (DiAngelo et al., 2000). The design of the anterior cervical plate (ACP) may contribute to this phenomenon. The purpose of this study was to compare the graft loading mechanics of two different anterior cervical plating systems; one with a constrained plate-screw interface versus another with a semi-constrained, translational plate-screw interface.

 Today is the era of modernization and fast life. Everybody is busy and living stressful life. Changing life style of person has created many disharmonies in his biological system. Advancement of busy, professional life and social life, improper sitting posture, continuous work in one posture, jerking movements during travelling and sports, all these factors create undue pressure and stress injury to spine and play an important role in producing disease like cervical spondylosis. In this study total 70 patients of Cervical Spondylosis having signs and symptoms of same, selected from OPD of our hospital. Patients were divided into two groups, 35 patients in control group and 35 patients in trial group. Patients in trial group were advised to Practice Makarasan as per yoga module adapted during study and Patients in control group were advised to do Neck Exercise as per neck exercise module adapted during study for 90 days daily. Assessment was done on the basis of pain, tenderness, stiffness and x-ray report of cervical spine before and after study. Makarasan is significantly effective in reduction of signs and symptoms of cervical spondylosis but there were no changes seen in anatomical structures in patients of cervical spondylosis after intervention of Makarasan.

Greeva Hundanam is a condition in which vitiated Vata lodges in the neck region and leads to stiffness of the neck with signs and symptoms of vitiation of Vata. The word Greeva means neck. The word Hun-danam conveys two meanings. The first one is “Shiro Prabhrutinam Antah Pravesha”. It means inward intrusion of the head and its allied parts. It is possible due to implication with cervical parts. Structural de-formity is also a suggestive condition. The other meaning is “Greeva Stambha”, which denotes the re-striction of the movements of the neck. Cervical Spondylosis is the degenerative condition of the cervical spine with signs and symptoms like neck pain, numbness, muscle spasm, neck stiffness, restricted range of movements of neck etc. Signs and symptoms of Greeva Hundanam resembles with that of Cervical Spon-dylosis. So, both Clinical Conditions can be compared with each other. Tila Taila is having Vatahara prop-erty used in treating Vatavyadhi. Also, in the previous study it has been reported that Tila Taila used in Greeva Basti was beneficial in reducing the signs and symptoms of Greeva Hundanam. So, in this study an attempt was done to evaluate and compare the effect of Greeva Basti and its modified schedule in Greeva Hundanam with Tila Taila.

Skin is the general covering of the entire external surface of the body. Because of a large number of its functions, the skin is regarded as an important organ of the body. There are so many skin disorders of which Tenia pedis is a very common fungal infection that affects a significantly large number of people globally. This fungal infection is called Athlete’s foot because it is commonly seen in athletes. In Ayurveda, various skin disorders are described under the heading of kshudraroga. A brief description about Kshudraroga has been given in many Ayurvedic classics. Alasa is a variety of Kshudraroga occurring in between the skin of toes manifesting with Kleda, Kandu, Daha and Ruja. Talisadi tailam mentioned in Sushruta Samhita is an excellent formulation prepared of drugs which are effective against this disease. Current study includes 30 patients from OPD Department of Shalya Tantra, Jammu Institute of Ayurveda and Research, Jammu and Sri Sain Charitable Hospital, Janipur, Jammu diagnosed to have Tenia pedis based on signs and symptoms. Therapeutic effect was evaluated before and after treatment. The present clinical study has shown symptoms of Kandu, Daha, Ruja, Kleda significantly reduced after application of Talisadi tailam.

Dyslipidemia occurs when there is an elevation in the levels of plasma cholesterol, triglycerides, or a decreased level of HDL levels. It is one of the main causes that contribute to the event of atherosclerosis and a major cause of various lifestyle disorders. Dyslipidemia being the common issue faced by mankind, there is a necessity to combat it with the drugs mentioned in the classics. In this regard, an attempt has been made to critically review the action of two important drugs mentioned in the classical texts which help in managing Dyslipidemia. The pre- sent study was aimed to assess the clinical effectiveness of Tryushanadhi guggulu and Navaka guggulu in Dyslipidemia and to compare the effectiveness of both after therapy. This comparative clinical study was con- ducted with pre and post designs in 40 patients diagnosed with Dyslipidemia with 20 patients in each in two groups viz Group A and Group B treated with Tryushanadhi guggulu and Navaka guggulu respectively. The as- sessment was done before and after the treatment with Objective criteria. After a thorough assessment, it was found out that Group A (Tryushanadhi guggulu:20.87%) had better results compared to Group B (Navaka guggu- lu:10.37%).

The beauty and attraction of individual depends upon skin health including physical and psychological health. Switra is the common depigmentation disorder described among the varieties of Kustha (Integumentary diseases) in Ayurvedic classics. Switra is correlated with Vitiligo to certain extent in contemporary system of medicine. Vitiligo is a common disorder of unknown aetiology even today. It is an acquired condition in which circumscribed de-pigmented patches develops. Hence, the present clinical trial was planned to assess the role of treatment through Ayurveda in the case of Switra (Vitiligo). A case of 26 years old male came to CBPACS, Kayachikitsa special OPD with complaint of white patches in body (Scalp, abdomen, face, back region) neither scaling nor itching since 1 year. Examination, investigations and history leads to diagnosis of Switra. Patient was treated with internal administration of Arogyavardhini Vati, Mahamanjisthadi Kwath with Triphala Churna and local application of Jatyadi Taila mixed with Bakuchi Churna along with Pathyapathya. The effect of the therapy was assessed by the signs and symptoms before and after the treatment. The treatment modalities done showed marked improvement in the patient signs and symptoms and hence, treatment through Ayurveda has effective results in the management of Switra (Vitiligo).
