Skin is one of the important sensory organs that protects against mechanical trauma, UV light and infection, in addition the skin is concerned with thermoregulation, conservation, excretion of fluid and sensory per-ception. The pores present in skin help in the hair nourishment, detoxification process and keeping skin healthy. Therefore, any anatomical or physiological abnormalities in skin or related organs may leads vari-ous disorders of skin like Psoriasis, Acne, Leprosy, Hyper pigmentation, Skin allergy. The incidences of Skin diseases are increasing day by day. Modern medicine provides temporary relief but not complete cure. Therefore, peoples are gradually turning towards Ayurveda for safe and complete cure of diseases. Espe-cially in the field of Skin diseases. In Ayurveda concept of Dushivisha is very unique. Dushivisha is a low potent poison which vitiates Dhatus. In its relationship with Raktdhatu some of the Skin diseases caused by Dushivisha which are described in Samhitas are Kustha, Visarpa, Shitpitta, Udarda, Kotha. In present era, people are exposing to various toxins in day to day life which are causing various health problems. There are many such kind of diseases where treatment does not work, as it is not eliminating the root cause. Skin diseases can be prevented and if it occurs then can be cured through Ayurvedic Agada’s. Agada’s are the counter measures taken against this manifestation. Achayra Yogratnakara mentioned Pippalyadi Agada in the management of Dushivisha. It can be a better choice for the treatment of Dushivisha janya Twak vikar by its Kusthghna, Krimighna, Vishaghna, Kandughna properties.

Treatment Observation

Background: The skin or the integument is the external organ that protects against mechanical trauma, UV light and infections. The prevalence of skin diseases in India is 10 to 12% of the total population with psoriasis being the major contributor, in India it ranges from 0.44% to 2.8%. In Ayurveda all skin diseases come under the concept of Kushta. Psoriasis has a high resemblance with Ekkushta, which is the type of Kshudrakushta (less severe form of the Kushta). Skin diseases considered as Pitta Doshaja and Rakta Dhatu Pradoshaja Vikara. Acharya Charaka stated that Virechana is the great treatment for Pitta predominance diseases. Aim: To study the role of Virechana Karma in the management of Ekkushta (Psoriasis). Material and Methods: A single group of 5 diagnosed patients of Ekkushta (Psoriasis) were registered at the Kayachikitsa OPD of Pt. Khushilal Sharma Govt. (Auto.) Ayurvede Hospital Bhopal. The patients were treated with Virechana Karma. Duration of study is 21 days and follow up after completion of trial every week for 1 month. Assessment was done on the basis of symptomatic relief after treatment. Observation: The overall effect of the Virechana Karma in all patients suggested that, complete cure was not in any patient. One patient was mild improved, one patient was markedly improved and three patients were moderately improved. None of patients remained unchanged. Conclusion On the basis of this clinical trial it can be concluded that Virechana Karma works effectively in the management of psoriasis.

In ayurvedic texts, all skin diseases are classified under Mahakushtha and Kshudrakushtha. Vicharchika is a type of Kshudrakushtha. It can be correlated with eczema according to modern science. Eczema is characterised by dry itchy skin with areas of poorly  demarcated scales. In acute phase eczema may be vesicular and oozing. In chronic phase, it may become hyperpigmented and lichenified. Modern dermatology employs systemic and local administration of steroids for the management of eczema. Despite an initial response, maintenance therapies with small doses of systemic and topical glucocorticoids usually produce hazardous ill effects. So attempt has been made to treat eczema by Ayurvedic medicine. Ayurveda focuses on underlying etiopathogenesis and treats the root cause of the disease. The present study has been done to evaluate the efficacy of Shodhana i.e.Raktamokshan(siravedha) and Shaman Chikitsa in Vicharchika.

Virechan is one of the Shodhan Chikitsa described in ayurvedic texts. It is mainly advised in the pitta and rakta Pradhan diseases. All skin diseases in ayurveda have been considered under kustha. At present time antibiotics and antifungal medicines are being resistant, so it is becoming difficult day by day to cure such skin diseases, but in Ayurveda, Virechan karma is a very powerful therapy to combat these diseases. Skin is the index of our body. Healthy skin represents a healthy body. Improper usage of foods and drinks along with unhealthy activities mani- fest diseases. Virechan karma is the second therapy in the sequence of panchakarmas, the most widely used pu- rificatory procedure especially for paitika and raktas diseases. It is also useful in the disorders in which pitta is associated with vata or kapha. Ayurveda states that sluggish liver (dysfunction of the liver) associated with doshic imbalance causes skin diseases. There are so many skin diseases that are not curable by other procedures. Accord- ing to Ayurveda Virechan karma is very much beneficial in curing the different obstinate skin diseases as psoria- sis, eczema, acne vulgaris, vitiligo, leukoderma etc. Ayurveda always looks to the root cause so the patient can restore their body to a healthy state and eliminate the symptoms of skin diseases. This article deals with various skin diseases and their treatment by using Virechan therapy. Keywords: Virechan, Shodhanchikitsa, Skin Diseases, Psoriasis, Panchkarma,

Current Paradigm

Despite all achievements of the modern medicine, the problem of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) does not lose its relevance. The current paradigm suggests a key role of macrophages in inflammation in COPD. Macrophages are known to be heterogeneous in their functions. This heterogeneity is determined by their immunometabolic profile and also by peculiarities of lipid homeostasis of cells. Aim. To analyze the role of the ABCA1 transporter, a member of the ABC A subfamily, in the pathogenesis of COPD. The expression of ABCA1 in lung tissues is on the second place after the liver, which shows the important role of the carrier and of lipid homeostasis in the function of lungs. Analysis of the literature shows that participation of the transporter in inflammation consists in regulation of the content of cholesterol in the lipid rafts of the membranes, in phagocytosis and apoptosis. Conclusion. Through regulation of the process of reverse transport of cholesterol in macrophages of lungs, ABCA1 can change their inflammatory response, which makes a significant contribution to the pathogenesis of COPD.

Abstract The paper reports the investigation on the root cause of source-drain leakage in bulk FinFET devices. While the failing device was readily isolated by nanoprobing technique and the electrical analysis pinpointed the potential defect location inside the Fin channel, the identification of physical root cause went through extreme challenges imposed by the tiny-sized device and the unique FinFET 3D architecture. The initial TEM analysis was misled by the projection of a species in the lamella surface and thus could not explain the electrical data. Careful analysis on the device structure was able to identify the origin of the species and led to the discovery of the actual root cause. This paper will provide the analysis details leading to the findings, and highlight the role of electrical understanding in not only providing guidance for physical analysis but also revealing the true root cause of failure in FinFET devices.

Currently, one of the priority medical and social problems is the optimization of treatment methods for pyoderma associated with Streptococcus pyogenes — group A streptococcus (GAS). To date, the proportion of pyoderma, the etiological factor of which is Streptococcus pyogenes, is about 6 % of all skin diseases and is in the range from 17.9 to 43.9 % of all dermatoses. Role of the bacterial factor in the development of streptococcal pyoderma is obvious. Traditional treatment complex includes antibacterial drugs selected individually, taking into account the antibiotic sensitivity of pathognomonic bacteria, and it is not always effective. Currently implemented immunocorrection methods often do not take into account specific immunological features of the disease, the individual, and the fact that the skin performs the function of not only a mechanical barrier, but it is also an immunocompetent organ. Such an approach makes it necessary to conduct additional studies clarifying the role of factors of innate and adaptive immunity, intercellular mediators and antioxidant defense system, that allow to optimize the treatment of this pathology.

Background: Anal fissure (AF) is a common disease associated with severe pain and reduced quality of life. Factors related to lifestyle, including diet and bowel habits, play a pivotal role in its pathogenesis. Most of the chronic fissures are not responsive to drugs and more likely to recur. Given the significance of diet in Persian medicine (PM), investigation on physiopathology and appropriate foods can be useful for decreases in AF symptoms and consequences. Objective: This study was intended to evaluate the role of diet in the formation and progression of AF from the perspective of PM. Methods: In this study, the most important resources of PM dating back to thousands of years were reviewed. All these textbooks contained a section on AF, its causes, and treatment. Further analysis was performed on these resources in comparison with databank and resources of modern medicine to develop a food-based strategy for AF management. Results: From the view of PM, the warmth and dryness of anus temperament accounted for AF. Both Persian and modern medicine identified constipation as another cause for AF. Therefore, avoidance from some foods and commercial baked goods was recommended. Both Persian and modern medicine forbad the following foods: potato, cabbage, cauliflower, pasta, beef, fish, and so forth. High fiber and oligo-antigen diets with some limitations have garnered more attention. Conclusion: An integrative approach is recommended employing both Persian and modern medicine for AF. There have been some evidence in this regard, however standardized clinical trials are required for future research.

Non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) is characterized by an abnormal hepatic lipid accumulation accompanied by a necro-inflammatory process and a fibrotic response. It comprises from 10% to 30% of cases of patients with non-alcoholic liver disease, which is a global health problem affecting around a quarter of the worldwide population. Nevertheless, the development of NASH is often surrounded by a pathological context with other comorbidities, such as cardiovascular diseases, obesity, insulin resistance or type 2 diabetes mellitus. Dietary imbalances are increasingly recognized as the root cause of these NASH-related comorbidities. In this context, a growing concern exists about whether magnesium consumption in the general population is sufficient. Hypomagnesemia is a hallmark of the aforementioned NASH comorbidities, and deficiencies in magnesium are also widely related to the triggering of complications that aggravate NASH or derived pathologies. Moreover, the supplementation of this cation has proved to reduce mortality from hepatic complications. In the present review, the role of magnesium in NASH and related comorbidities has been characterized, unraveling the relevance of maintaining the homeostasis of this cation for the correct functioning of the organism.
