Published: March 2024

Plantar fasciitis (PF) is one of the common musculoskeletal problem causes of heel pain often observed by clinicians. It is defined as pain on the plantar surface of the heel and is the most common cause of inferior heel pain or sub-calcaneal pain. It occurs as a result of inflammation of the plantar aponeurosis of the foot at its attachment on the calcaneal tuberosity. We report a case of 43-year female who experienced heel pain in the last 3 months. Positional Release Therapy (PRT) and Mobilization with Movement (MWM) was given for 3 times per week for 2 weeks, which result significant improvement in pain range of motion (ROM) and foot function index.

Published: March 2024

One of the medicinal plants that are widely used and available is Curcuma xanthorrhiza. In a daily consumption, C. xanthorrhiza is processed into herbal drinks through a decoction process. However, many biological activities of a plant may be sensitive to the temperature due. Thus, this study is analyzing the effect of temperature on one of the major compounds of C. xanthorrhiza, namely curcumin, along with its antioxidant activity. This research was conducted to obtain the optimum temperature for C. xanthorrhiza processing in order to standardize it as phytopharmaca product. The results showed that a temperature of 100oC was the optimal temperature for the decoction with an extraction rate of 8 ppm and an antioxidant activity of 165 ppm. The curcumin content seems not too sensitive to temperature when seen from the levels obtained at 70oC, 90oC and 100oC which are both 8 ppm. On the other hand, the antioxidant activity of C. xanthorrhiza at temperatures below 100oC has no significant activity which indicates the effect of temperature on its antioxidant activity. The curcumin standard itself has an IC50 of 120 ppm while the IC50 of vitamin C is 24.3 ppm. As it seen from the insignificant antioxidant activity of the decoction extract below 100oC, it is possible that there are other compounds besides curcumin which are extracted only at 100oC which has the agonist effect on the antioxidant activity

Every nation's foundation is its children, and that nation's top priority is to ensure their health. Their early years of life are characterized by their development and growth. The first few years of life are the most important time because of the fast growth and development that is common at this age and necessitates ongoing observation. During this time, roughly 40% of physical growth and 80% of mental development take place. Any obstacle they face at this age could severely restrict their ability to develop and grow. A child who lacks access to health care during these formative years is denied the chance to develop into a healthy adult, and the harm caused in the early years may be permanent or in the long run. Children under the age of five continue to die from ailments that are treatable or preventable. Despite the significant progress in immunization to strengthen the immune system, medical research has not yet developed a fully effective defense against virulent organisms, and occasionally we fail in the struggle for survival. To understand the primary causes of death and the carers' patterns of seeking medical attention before the deaths of such children, a cross-section study encompassing the area of Jodhpur, Rajasthan, was done. The survey was conducted on 1000 children living in the surroundings of the Post Graduate Institute of Ayurved, Dr. S. R. Rajasthan Ayurved University, Jodhpur. Demographic studies show that Respiratory tract Infection is the main cause of morbidity in children. In Respiratory tract Infection recurrent cough, recurrent running nose, recurrent nasal obstruction, recurrent sore throat, and breathlessness are included. Out of which maximum number of children suffered from recurrent running nose.
