Acute and Sub acute Toxicity Study of Ayurvedic Formulation (AYFs) Used for Migraine Treatment
This study tested the safety of five Ayurvedic formulations for migraine prevention in rats and mice. Acute and sub-acute toxicity studies showed no toxic effects at doses up to 10 times the human dose. A slight mortality in high-dose groups was unrelated to treatment. The formulations are considered safe, but further chronic toxicity studies are needed.
Demographic Pattern of Pancreatitis Patients in India – A Hospital-based Study
A hospital-based study on 2,050 pancreatitis patients across India found that 83% were male, with an average age of 24 years, and 75% aged between 19–45. Alcohol use was reported by 33.6% and tobacco by 18.4%, while genetic and gallstone-related causes accounted for 8.8% and 5% respectively. The findings suggest emerging lifestyle and regional risk factors, but broader studies are needed for definitive insights.
Clinical Intervention of Ayurvedic Treatment in the Patients of Recurrent Acute/Chronic Pancreatitis
The study of 1233 acute pancreatitis patients found that 12.9% experienced oral feeding intolerance (OFI). Risk factors included younger age, male sex, alcohol use, smoking, non-biliary etiology, and SIRS at 48h. SIRS at 48h (OR 2.85) and non-biliary etiology (OR 1.77) were independently linked to OFI, with biliary etiology being protective.
Observational research on the effect of an Ayurvedic treatment protocol in patients of hereditary pancreatitis
Hereditary pancreatitis (HP) is a chronic genetic disorder with limited treatment options. This study evaluated the efficacy of a year-long Ayurvedic Treatment Protocol (ATP) in 151 patients, 88 of whom completed the program. The treatment included Ayurvedic formulations, dietary adjustments, and discontinuation of pancreatic enzymes. Results showed a 92.8% reduction in attack frequency and a 98.7% decrease in hospitalizations (p < 0.0001), with no adverse effects. ATP demonstrated safety and effectiveness in managing HP, suggesting the need for further research.
Sustainable Effect of Ayurvedic Formulations in the Treatment of Nutritional Anemia in Adolescent Students
This study evaluated the impact of Ayurvedic treatments (Sootshekhar Rasa and Sitopaladi Churna) on nutritional anemia in 1322 adolescent students in Dehradun. After 90 days of treatment, significant hemoglobin improvements were seen in the treatment groups, especially those receiving a daily dose of 250 mg SR and 400 mg SC. The study concluded that this combination effectively improves anemia in adolescents without adverse effects.
Response to Ayurvedic therapy in the treatment of migraine without aura
A study on 204 migraine patients using an Ayurvedic Treatment Protocol (AyTP) showed 35.2% had complete relief, 35.2% had mild episodes without medication, and 70.5% experienced reduced pain frequency and intensity. The preliminary results suggest the AyTP may be effective, though the study's design limits firm conclusions.
