Krodha is a Manasika Vikara which can be assessed by Droha done by another person. Here is an attempt made to evaluate the efficacy of Geetam and Chandra Anuloma Viloma Pranayama in the management of Krodha. Forty subjects fulfilling the diagnostic and inclusion criteria were selected and randomly assigned into two groups. Group A was treated with Geetam, and Group B were treated with Chandra Anuloma Viloma Pranayama. The effect of treatment was assessed based on symptoms of Krodha, Intermittent explosive disorder and Buss and Perry Scale. Both Geetam and Chandra Anuloma Viloma Pranayama showed a statistically significant effect on the assessment criteria. On comparison between two groups, there is no statistically significant difference between Group A and Group B. Thus, the null hypothesis is rejected, and the alternative hypothesis (H1) is accepted i.e., There is an equivalent effect of both Geetam and Chandra Anuloma Viloma pranayama in the management of the Krodha. Keywords: Geetam; Chandra Anuloma Viloma, Pranayama; Krodha; Aggression; Intermittent explosive disorder.

Dushta Vrana is a common and frequently encountered problem faced in surgical practice. The presence of Dushta Vrana worsens the condition of the patient with different complications and may become fatal. Local factors on wound like slough, infection and foreign body, affect the normal process of healing. A healthy wound in a normal body heals earlier with a minimum scar as compared to a contaminated wound. Therefore in this study all the efforts are made to make a Dushta Vrana into a Shuddha Vrana. Once the Vrana becomes Shuddha, Ropana of the Vrana will start. The objective of the study was to evaluate the clinical efficacy of Jatyadi Taila and Jatyadi Ghrita in Dushta Vrana. Clinically diagnosed 60 Patients of Dushta Vrana were randomly divided into two groups, each consisting of 30 Patients. Group A were treated with the Jatyadi Taila and Group B was treated by Jatyadi Ghrita. The results observed was based on the relief obtained on the subjective and objective parameters taken for consideration for this study viz, size of ulcer, discharge, smell, pain, burning sensation, itching and granulation were found significant (P Lass Than 0.05). On the basis of assessment criteria and overall result of treatment, the patients of Jatyadi Taila group showed better results when compared to Jatyadi Ghrita group. Even though statistically there is no much significant difference between the two groups, but by seeing the effect on individual parameters (subjective and objective) and over all response, Jatyadi Taila seems to be effective when compared to Jatyadi Ghrita. It is having more Ropana qualities when compared to Shodhana.

Kasa is one of the Pranavaha Srothodusti vikara which hinders normal life. Kaphaja Kasa is a type of Kasa with Vata and Kapha as predominant doshas and present with Prabhuta, Ghana and Bahala kapha. Kaphaja Kasa can be best compared with Chronic Bronchitis. If left untreated it leads to various conditions like Swasa, Kshaya, Chardi, Svarasaadha etc. This signifies the importance of its early management. The present study was conducted on 40 diagnosed subjects of Kaphaja Kasa who were randomly allocated into 2 groups with 20 patients each. La- vangadi gutika was taken in Group A and Pippalyadi gutika in Group B. Medicines was given for 30 days and the data was collected from the subject at baseline, 16th day, 31st day and on 46th day (follow up). The result of the study showed that there was a statistically significant difference in the assessment parameters in both the groups from baseline. However no statistically significant difference was observed between the effect of Lavangadi guti- ka and Pippalyadi gutika in the management of Kaphaja Kasa suggesting that both interventions were having a significant effect on the condition.

Abstract Background：Cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) was used to study the morphology and curvature of the middle mesial canals (MMCs) of the mandibular first molars (MFMs).Methods：CBCT scanning was performed on the MFMs of 1100 patients. The pa tients' images which met the inclusion criteria were divided into group A (<40 years old) and group B (≥40 years old) for further study. To study the incidence of the MMCs at different ages, to measure the curvature of MMCs of mesiodistal and buccolingual direction by Schneider method, and to observe the anatomical morphology of the mesial root canal system.Results：In 875 patients, 1750 MFM images met the inclusion criteria, among which 158 MFMs contained a MMC, with an incidence rate of 9.03%. The incidence rate of MMCs was 11.22% in group A and 6.61% in group B, with statistically significant differences (P<0.05). The curvature in group A was 29.39±8.53° in mesiodistal direction while group B was 26.06±8.50 °, with statistical differences (P＜0.05). It has been shown that curved regions in group A and B were often found out in the middle 1/3. There is no significant difference in the distance between MMC orifices and mesiobuccal canal orifices or mesiolingual canal orifices (P>0.05). The most common mesial root canal morphology type was type II (3-2) (53.80%). Conclusion：The incidence of MMCs in MFMs was showed to decline along with the increase of age. The canal system of MMCs was varied and complex, mostly with mesiodistal curve obviously. CBCT is an outstanding assistant examination to the root canal therapy.
