Authors: Shreyes Shreyes , Bali M R Yogitha 
Published: September 2024

Background
Labour is a natural process that requires minimal assistance, but due to the altered anatomy and physiology, it may suddenly become abnormal and even fatal. Labour is vastly described in Ayurveda as Prasava and its being practised since centuries. Application of the Ayurvedic concept of labour and its practices is the need of hour in prevention of un toward complications of labour.
Design
This was a randomized comparative clinical study. It included 40 patients assigned into two groups, Group A and Group B each with 40 patients respectively. Group A patients were administered Krishnavacha Lepa mixed with Eranda Taila Lepa and in Group B, Vaasamoola Lepa was applied after attaining the true labour pain in the first stage of labour with proper operative procedures.
Results
Repeated measures analysis of variance (RMANOVA) with Bonferroni showed significant changes both between and within the groups. Krishna Vacha Eranda Taila Lepa showed significant changes compared to Vaasamoola Lepa with (p≤0.05) in Cervical effacement, Cervical Position, Cervical Dilatation, Cervical Consistency, Head Station, Number of contractions and Duration of contractions.
Conclusion
Krishna Vacha Eranda Taila Lepa application was more effective compared to Vaasamoola Lepa in the management of first stage of Prasava in patients with true labour pain.

Published: September 2024

Ayurveda Samhitas are not only the Aushadha Granthas but also the encyclopaedia, as they include everything relevant. In Ayurveda, ‘Ahara Kalpana’ is considered as more competent than the Aushadha Dravya, as it is the basis of both health and disease. That's why Ahara is considered as Prana (life). Ayurveda states that the importance of Agni (digestive fire) through its compendium is to keep the body in healthy condition. Agni, if disturbed, it may create many kinds of disorders. Takra (buttermilk) acts as primary digestive aid for the disease associated with Agni. Takra is one of the Ahara Dravya with lots of medicinal properties. Takra indicated in various diseases like Grahani, Arsha, Atisara etc., as a Pathya, Anupana or single drug. The presence of sphingolipids, lactoferrins, caseins, good qualities of proteins, various vitamins etc., which are easily digestible have been detected in buttermilk. All these explain the mechanism and action of buttermilk. A person who consumes Takra never suffers from any disease and there is no recurrence of disease treated with Takra. It alleviates the hundred disorders. There is no remedy better than Takra for the 80 types of Vataja and 20 types of Kaphaja Vyadhi. Thus, we can call it ‘Panacea’ and ‘Nectar’ for its utility in innumerable diseases. It acts as Rasayana and helps to slow down the ageing process like a magical elixir. "Takra is easily palatable which can be used for prevention as well as treatment of diseases. Hence fulfils the principles of Ayurveda.
Understanding Ayurvedic Pharmacodynamics of Bhunimba (Andrographis paniculata Nees.) and Sariva (Hemidesmus indicus R.Br.) in Amlapitta vyadhi with reference to Ekal dravya chikitsa
Authors: Jadhav Amruta , Kulkarni Yogini , Akolkar Prasad 
Published: September 2024

Ayurveda (science of life) deals with proper-improper ways of living happy and healthy life at its fullest. The stable combination of five basic elements is nothing but Panchabhautikatva of dravya. Chikitsya Purusha (person as the object of treatment), is also a combination of Panchamahabhutas. Since panchabhautika dravya is the most probable entity for the treatment, it would be interesting to form a framework based on panchabhautikatva in case of the ekal dravya chikitsa format, which is the aim of this study. In this era, Amlapitta (Hyperacidity) is very common disease which manifests due to poor lifestyle habits. To understand the framework of ekal dravya chikitsa, the Ayurvedic Pharmacodynamics of Bhunimba and Sariva through their panchabhautikatva have been studied hereafter individually, in the management of Amlapitta (Hyperacidity).In the present study two ways of manifestations of Amlapitta (Hyperacidity) are observed, first with ushna (hot) gunadhikya in Pitta dosha which is due to the involvement of Agni mahabhuta and second with drava (fluidity) gunadhikya in Pitta dosha which is due to the involvement of Jala mahabhuta.
Bhunimba being Vayu-Akash mahabhutapradhana dravya, is effective in Amlapitta (Hyperacidity) due to drava (fluidity) gunadhikya in Pitta and Sariva being Prithvi-Aapa mahabhutapradhana dravya, is effective in Amlapitta (Hyperacidity) due to ushna (hot) gunadhikya in pitta.
As per the protocol of Dravyaguna Vijnana (pharmacognosy and pharmacology), the Rasapanchaka (five attributes of dravya beginning with rasa) decides the pharmacodynamics of the aushadhi dravya. This study observes that Rasapanchaka, being Gunas (property/ quality/ attribute), is decided by the panchabhautika combination of the dravyas.
Hence Ayurvedic Pharmacodynamics, that is action of dravya on the body can be best explained on the basis of Panchabhautikatva of dravya. So the present paper tries to establish the framework of Ekal dravya chikitsa on the basis of Panchabhautikatva of ekal aushadhi chikitsa dravya.

Abstract:
Pharmacognosy is the study of naturally occurring biological substances, principally those derived from plants that find use in medicine. The word 'pharmacognosy' is derived from the Greek 'pharmacon', 'a drug', and gignosco, 'to acquire a knowledge of'. As late as the beginning of the 20th century, the subject had developed mainly on the botanical side, being particularly concerned with the description and identification of drugs, both in the whole state and in powder, and with their history, commerce, collection, preparation and storage. The plant selected for the present study - Bridelia scandens Wild. of the family Euphorbiaceae, is yet another folklore medicinal plant which is widely used in some parts of Karnataka in treating the disease Amavata by the local tribal people and villagers. Here an attempt is made to validate plant pharmacognostically Bridelia scandens Wild. is a large, woody, evergreen, scandent shrub with pendant branches large defluxed spines abundantly seen in western ghats. Bark grey, hard, deeply fissured; leaves elliptic, obtuse entire, thinly curvaceous; flowers greenish yellow, in dense axillary heads arranged in paniculate leafy spikes; drupes ovoid, bluish black, succulent, smooth.
Upper epidermis shows no stomata and lower epidermis shows mostly ranuculaceous stomata. Transverse section of the petiole is almost circular with a narrow groove at the upper side and wavy margin with plenty of non-glandular trichomes. T.S. of the leaf shows a dorsivertral outline; vascular bundles are circular and similar to that of dicot stem.
Microscopic study of the leaf powder showed, trichomes, fragments of lower epidermis with stomata, sclerenchyma fibers, crystals, chloroplast, vein fragments, spiral vessels and orange-reddish to brown pigments

Published: September 2024

Diabetes mellitus is rising to an alarming epidemic level especially in India and more than the Diabetes itself the complications caused by the long-term suffering of Diabetes are creating a great havoc. Diabetic peripheral neuropathy is one among the complications of Diabetes that accounts for more hospitalizations than all other diabetic complications combined. It is a nerve damaging disorder and is a result of diabetic microvascular injury involving small blood vessels that supply to nerves. Prameha is a disease described in the ancient ayurvedic scriptures, mostly correlated with Diabetes mellitus. Its inclusion in the astamahagadas by the three bruhattrayeekaras itself reflects its significance. May be the disease was considered important because of its incurability and the different upadravas (complications) caused by the long-term suffering from Prameha like daha (burning sensation), dourbalya (weakness), sula (pricking pain), suptata (numbness) etc. The symptoms of DPN can be found mentioned under the headings of upadrava as well as poorva rupa of Prameha. The main aim of this article is to review the concept of Diabetic peripheral neuropathy and to understand it in ayurvedic aspect.

This article studies data from civilian crisis management training to investigate how participants use smartphones to construct participation in team interaction during a task. Previous research discusses the effects of smartphone use in co-present interaction, and its use may have advantages and disadvantages to the production of meaningful, effective interaction. Using ethnomethodological conversation analysis, this study examines participants’ private smartphone use as well as their shared smartphone showings. The analysis demonstrates the complexity and fluidity of smartphone use in a multiparty co-present setting, illustrating the collaborative nature of the showing, and showcasing how the smartphone use furthers the participants’ shared understanding as well as decision-making. The analysis focuses on the the beginning, middle, and end stages of the smartphone use. Findings show that both the smartphone user and their co-participants utilize a rich array of multimodal resources to construct interaction during the private activity and the shared showing. The data demonstrates how participants aptly utilize their smartphones for the benefit of the interaction and present task.
Comparison of hunting site strategies of the common buzzard Buteo buteo in open landscapes and along expressways
Authors: Cieśluk Paweł , Morelli Federico , Kasprzykowski Zbigniew 
Published: September 2024

Background
The expansion of human activities in their many forms increases the frequency, diversity, and scale of human-wildlife interactions. One such negative form is the expansion of road infrastructure, causing road kill and traffic-related noise as well as habitat loss and fragmentation. Even so, habitats around road infrastructure are attractive foraging areas that attract certain bird species. We assessed the impact of road infrastructure on the foraging strategies of the common buzzard Buteo buteo.

Methods
Birds were observed during two winter seasons in two land-use types, along an expressway and an open agricultural landscape. Individual birds were tracked for a 10-min sequence as a separate sample was analysed. The material, covering 1,220 min along the expressway, and 1,100 min in the agricultural landscape, was collected.

Results
Time spent by buzzards on medium-height sites was higher along the expressway than in farmland. Buzzards changed their hunting sites following the mean wind speed. Also, they more often changed their sites along the expressway than in farmland. The land-use types, snow cover, and the mean wind speed mediated the number of attacks on prey. These results illustrate the high plasticity of the buzzards’ behaviour, which can adapt their hunting strategies to both foraging locations (expressway and farmland) and weather conditions. Roadsides along expressways are attractive foraging areas for this diurnal raptor, so reducing the risk of vehicle collisions with this and other birds of prey may require targeted planning efforts.
Evaluating drivers of Pleistocene eastern tropical Pacific sea surface temperature
Authors: Dyez K. A. , Ravelo A. C. , Mix A. C. 
Published: July 2016

AbstractSea surface temperature (SST) of the eastern equatorial Pacific is a key component of tropical oceanic and atmospheric circulation with global teleconnections. Forcing factors such as local and high‐latitude insolation changes, ice sheet size and albedo feedbacks, and greenhouse gas radiation have been proposed as controls of long‐term eastern tropical Pacific SST, though the precise role each mechanism plays is not fully known on glacial‐interglacial or longer timescales. Here proposed mechanisms are evaluated by comparing orbital‐scale records of eastern Pacific SST with forcing variability over the past 1.5 Ma. The primary SST records are a compilation of new and existing data from Ocean Drilling Program Site 1239 at the northeastern margin of the modern eastern Pacific cold tongue and Site 846 SST within the cold tongue. Using time series analysis, we test previously proposed mechanisms for control of long‐term tropical SST change and SST gradients in the eastern Pacific. We find that within statistical uncertainties, in the precession band eastern Pacific SST is consistent with direct forcing by equatorial radiation changes in the tropical cold season (summer‐fall) rather than inversely correlated as previously suggested. In the obliquity band high‐latitude solar forcing leads or is in phase with eastern equatorial Pacific SST, while in the eccentricity band atmospheric greenhouse gas concentrations are closely associated with cold tongue SST. Pleistocene eastern Pacific SST gradients indicate that the gradient on the northern margin of the cold tongue strengthened through the mid‐Pleistocene transition, a result compatible with the cold tongue becoming more focused at ~900–650 ka.
Practices and perceptions on water resource sustainability in ecovillages
Authors: de Moura Leite Flavia Brunale Vilela , Bertolo Lídia Sanches , Santos Rozely Ferreira 
Published: July 2016

AbstractIn many areas of the world, groups of people have attempted to create urban landscapes that follow the principles of environmental sustainability. To this end, groups have devised alternative models, such as ecovillages, where low‐impact handling is used and a way of life different from that of large population centers is adopted. Although these villages exist, their efficiency in the conservation of natural resources has not been effectively evaluated. This study evaluated the practices used by two Brazilian ecovillages to conserve water resources to assess whether this new concept of living is indeed successful in meeting sustainability goals. We selected 25 indicators of water sustainability, and using the compromise programming method, we quantified the distance between those landscapes self‐referenced as sustainable and an ideal hypothetical scenario. We also interpreted the communities perceptions using the distance between the current situations and the envisioned scenario. We concluded that both ecovillage are far from technically ideal scenario, but the communities have a strong sense of their limitations in implementing water resources conservation. The communities attributed this fact primarily to deficiencies in the shared management.
