Ayurveda is the best way to deal with it as it cures the root cause of any problem. According to Ayurveda skin diseases are caused by imbalance of Doshas and therefore treatment depends on imparting harmony and balance for the individual. In Ayurveda skin diseases are included under the heading of Kushta and Kshudrarogas. Vyanga is one among the Kshudra rogas, even though Vyanga is a Kshudraroga it produces a great misery for the person due to dark discoloration of the skin, mostly over the face, occasionally on neck and rarely in forearms. Vyanga is a pathological situation of the facial skin which is produced due to the vitiation of Vata, Pitta, Rakta and Manasika Nidanas such as Krodha (anger), Shoka (sorrow), and Ayasa (mental exertion) are main culprits, these producing cardinal features such as Niruja (painless), Tanu (thin) and Shyavavarna Mandalas (bluish black colour patches). The Lakshanas of Vyanga are explained by different authors in the classical texts of Ayurveda under the heading of Kshudra rogas, Sushruta samhita, Ashtanga samghraha, Madhava nidana, Ashtanga hrudaya, Bhava prakasha, Sharangadhara samhita. In the context of Vyanga both Shodhana and Shamana chikitsa are explained in the form of Raktamokshana, Lepa, Abhyanga, and oral medications. Vyanga is correlated with melasma in the modern aspects, it is a chronic, acquired cutaneous characterised by hypopigmented patches on sun exposed areas of the face. Ayurveda cures the root cause of any problem. Any activity that increases the fire or heat in the body increase Pitta and can lead to skin diseases.

Vyanga is one of the Kshudraroga1, characterized by the presence of painless, bluish-black patches on face. On the basis of clinical features, it can be compared with Facial melasma. Melasma is characterized by dark, discolored patches on skin. It's also called chloasma. It typically occurs in the face and symmet-rical, with matching marks on both sides of the face. Area of the body which exposed to sun can also de-velop melasma. According to Ayurveda, vitiated Dosha mainly Pitta along with Vata produce blackish patches on the face which is called Vyanga. Vyanga is Rakta Pradoshaj Vikar and in its Doshas involved is Udana Vayu, Bhajrak Pitta and Dushya Rasa and Rakta Dhatu, as this condition disturbed our mental and physical state. In modern medical science, topical steroids have been described in the management of faci-al melasma. However, the topical steroids are may cause adverse effects such as irritation, rashes etc. and are expensive too. Ayurveda treatment includes Abhyanga with Taila, Lepa, Pradeha, Nasya, Rak-tamokshana etc. Ayurveda mentions a good number of drugs like Kusthaghna, Kandughna, Raktasho-dhaka, Twakprasadaka and Varnyakara properties e.g. Arjuna, Nimba, Manjistha are helpful in manage-ment and can produce cutaneous depigmentation that remove the blackish discoloration of skin.

Introduction: The pregnant women are more prone to vaginal infection like vulvovaginitis, which presents a challenge for doctor today. Pregnant state produces several normal and expected changes in all the ma-ternal organ systems, from which vaginal candidiasis is one. Vaginal secretion changes during pregnancy mainly vaginal PH. Vaginal secretions during pregnancy falls from a pH of greater than 7 (an alkaline pH) to 4 or 5 (an acid pH). Due to this change in vaginal pH candida albicans growth occurs. In pregnancy, there is higher oestrogen level and higher glycogen level which helps in growth of candida. According to Ayurveda if woman during pregnancy take Kapha aggravating Ahar and Vihar excessively and suppresses the urges of vomiting and respiration, the vitiated Vayu carries Kapha to genital tract affect the same and vaginal white discharge is seen in pregnant woman due to Kapha and Vata; This is known as "Upapluta Yonivyapad". Lodhra has Kashay Ras which help in decreasing Kapha Dosha and Madhu has Tridoshahar property which cures Upapluta Yonivyapad. Aim: The present study is aimed to assess the efficacy of Lodhra with Madhu gel in Upapluta Yonivyapad. Material and Methods: The present study is done, to analyze the effect of Lodhra and Madhu gel in Upapluta Yonivyapad. Study is performed with help of var-ious previous research paper published, from various authentic Ayurvedic and Modern books as well as Samhitas. Conclusion: In pregnancy, due to Kapha and Vata there is a change in vaginal pH and vaginal white discharge; Also, there is high estrogen level which cause vaginal candida. Lodhra has property of Kaphahar, analgesic, anti-inflammatory, antibacterial, antihelminthic. Madhu is one of the five elixirs of immortality (panchamrut) and has properties like: Tridoshahar, antiseptic, antimicrobial, antiallergic, anti-inflammatory. Thus, it balances the Dosha and result in decrease (vaginal candida) Upapluta Yonivyapad. Thus, Lodhra and Madhu gel can work effectively in Upapluta Yonivyapad.

About 422 million people worldwide have diabetes. The majority of people having diabetes are living in low and middle income countries. 1.5 million Deaths are directly attributed to diabetes each year. Ayurveda had well-explained about ayurveda well before 5000 years. In this article I had explained diet with its proper qualities, which can help to prevent and treat diabetes. Diet with more sweet, sour, salty taste and hot, oily, sticky, heavy character enhances prameha symptoms. Diet with dry, light, with all rasa, helps to cure prameha. Yava, honey, bitter vegetables, wood apple, bitter cucumber, small grains, old cereals, play key role to reduce diabetes symptom, and also to break the dibetes formation chain. To follow diet rules as explained in Charaka vimansthan are also very important in case of prameha. Keywords: Diabetes, Diet, Diet for diabetes, Ayurveda diet for diabetes.

Pre menstrual syndrome (PMS) is distressing psychological, physical and/ or behavioural symptoms. It occurs during the luteal phase of menstrual cycle. The significant regression of symptoms comes with onset of or during the period. PMS can also be defined as a combination of emotional, physical and psychological disturbances. It occurs after a woman’s ovulation, which gets end with onset of her menstrual flow. Here, in this review a detailed explanation about its etiology, symptoms, signs, diagnosis, differential diagnosis and its treatment are being described. Ayurveda points of view regarding PMS are also being described. Premenstrual syndrome can be probably correlated with Rituvyatita Kalaja Pitta Vata Vriddhi. As Vata dosha plays important role in aggravating the other Doshas as well. Vata Dosha imbalance causes the imbalance state of other Doshas causing premenstrual syndrome. Vata in association with Pitta and Kapha simultaneously vitiates Manodosha and Rasadhatu. Mithyahar vihar is the Samanya nidana for this syndrome.

In India, behavioral problems are prevalent and estimated to the tune of 33.4%. Such a problem if untreated increases the risk of suffering children from various psychiatric illnesses. Around 6 million children are affected by Behavioral problems worldwide. There are few guidelines in Ayurveda which can prove beneficial in the prevention and management of behavioral problems. The present review is aimed at providing Ayurvedic guidelines in the form of Sadvritta (Code of conduct), Acharrasayan-AR (ethical principles) and few Ayurveda interventions correlating with recently developed interventions of Psychology which may prove helpful in prevention and management of behavioral problems in children. This review is based on data collected from classical Ayurvedic literature, published research works in various journals and counseling experiences. Observations and Results: Behavioral problems are generally multi-factorial in origin and arise as a result of conflict between the children's personality, attitudes of parents, teacher or peers. Counseling with family and adoption of Ayurveda principles can manage and prevent further progress of behavioral problems in children. Satvavjay Chikitsa-SC (non-drug psychotherapy), Achar-Rasayana and Sadvritta, Yog are Ayurvedic ways to balance Satva (good qualities of mind), (Passionate, agitated), Tama (Laziness, lack of concentration) applicable in the prevention of behavioral problems. Knowledge education and proper expressions of code, conduct or etiquettes along with Ayurveda interventions such as the use of Medhya (nervine tonic/nootropic) drugs, Panchkarma pre procedures can prove to be a significant therapeutic way to combat behavioral disorders. Ayurvedic principles such as AR, Sadvritta and SC are best non-pharmacological modalities required for early detection and prevention of behavioral problems.

Swedana Karma is undertaken by inducing sweating from the application of heat. There are many methods used to achieve this, with Upanaha Swedana being one of them. Upanaha Swedana is a standard treatment modality used in Ayurveda for the management of pain and inflammation. It is a localized treatment wherein a combination of medicinal drugs are prepared, made into a poultice, heated and applied at the affected site. This is meant to reduce the local inflammation and act as a topical analgesic. The procedure is divided into three phases which are: Purva Karma (pre-therapy procedures), the preparation of the Upanaha Swedana material is done, Pradhana Karma (main therapeutic procedures) the prepared Upanaha Swedana material is applied to the patient and Paschat Karma (post-therapy procedures) after waiting the specified times, the Upahana Swedana is removed following proper procedures. The present conceptual study was done based on the need of the day to elaborate the process of conducting Upanaha Swedana. For this, various Ayurvedic texts, digital libraries referencing Samhita were searched and the following headings were selected, types of data, types of reports and functionalities. This article seeks to explore this treatment modality and outline the general approach to be followed while conducting the procedure of Upanaha Swedana.

Lifestyle in modern era delivers a lot of stress and due to extreme use of Guru (heavy), Madhura (sweet), Snigdha (oily), Shita (cold) Ahar and Vihar like Alashya (stationary), Adhyasana (taking another food before undigested food), Vishamashan (different timing of food) etc, people get suffer with a disease like excessive body fat or sick fat or adiposopathy. Adiposopathy leads to several metabolic diseases. Langhana upakrama (fasting) will be an effective treatment in adiposopathy. Several studies by researchers, assembled to check anatomical and pathophysiological abnormalities of adiposopathy and review of different aspects of Langhana upakrama in Samhita in perspective of metabolic disorders especially due to adiposopathy. Data study shows that on positive energy intake, accumulated subcutaneous adipose tissue, visceral adipose tissue and other fat depots can be pathogenic. This pathogenic adipose tissue causes many metabolic diseases like obesity, type 2 diabetes, hypertension, hypothyroidism, liver diseases etc. By the studies of different Samhita we can articulate that Langhana upakrama is able to bring lightness and thinness to body. Finally we can conclude that by the Langhana upakrama body uses all types of sick fat from all fat depots and it can reverse the process of adiposopathy and body becomes healthy.

Objective: Tamaka Shwasa is a Vatakaphaja Vyadhi originating from Pitta Sthana and manifesting through Pranavaha Srotas. Vata gets obstructed by Kapha and travels in Pratiloma Gati, thus causing the disease entity called Tamaka Shwasa. Tamaka Shwasa in Ayurvedic classics seems to be identical with the description of Bronchial Asthma in modern medicine. Bronchial Asthma is a major global health problem, which can affect the population irrespective of age, sex, economic status, etc. Method: References regard-ing Amritadi kwath are collected from Cakradatta, and further details regarding the constituent drugs are collected from textbooks, PubMed Central, published research papers and previous work done. Result: As per the data collected, Bronchial Asthma when treated with Amritadi kwath will be effective in relieving the symptoms in patients. Due to increasing prevalence, chronic, intermittent and inflammatory nature of the disease and also for better management of Tamaka Shwasa patients; it is a need of hour for innovative re-search regarding this topic. Conclusion: Amritadi kwath will be effective in improving pulmonary functions in Bronchial Asthma. Here we can conclude that Ayurvedic medicines will be a better choice in treating Bronchial Asthma in the near future.

Objective: Sthoulya is a major health problem affecting a high proportion of population in India. Ayurveda is the science of life with the aim of achieving health and curing diseases. (Obesity) Sthoulya is a burning problem in this world scenario and has acquired status of an epidemic. The sedentary lifestyles, stress and dietary habits etc., which are the gift of modern world, are primary predisposing factors for Sthoulya. Obe-sity is basically a behavioral disorder. Method: The major risk related with Sthoulya is that it favors com-plicated pathologies like hypertension, cardiac disease, diabetes mellitus, atherosclerosis, stroke, etc. Re-sult: Conservative management of Sthoulya according to Ayurvedic principles provides significant relief and improves quality of life. Mustadi Kwath is mentioned in Charak Samhinta in Santarpaniya Adhayaya (Chapter 23). Conclusion: Mustadi Kwath consists of Triphala, Haridra, Musta, Aarghawadha, Patha, Devadaru, Swadamshtra, Khadira, Nimba, Daruharidra, Kutaja, Twaka.

Katishool, low back ache (lumbago) is the most common problem in middle and old age people hampering the normal activity. There are several reasons associated with the pain such as – neurological, metabolic, degenerative, traumatic, bad posture, restless lifestyle, etc. Gridhasi is one of the Nanatmaja Vata Vyadhi, characterised by Katishool where the site of pain starts from the Sphika (back region) and then radiates to Kati, Pristha, Uru, Janu, Jangha, Pada in order. The signs and symptoms mentioned in ayurvedic texts resembles the medical condition named sciatica. Sciatica describes leg pain that is localised in the distribu-tion of one or more lumbosacral nerve roots, typically L4-S2, with or without neurological deficit. This causes abnormality in the gait of the patient. Gridhasi being a dominant lifestyle disorder needs a proper management and Siravedhan is one of the propitious managements of Gridhasi described in Ayurveda classics. Acharya Sushruta explained the importance of Siravedhan by accepting it as Ardha Chikitsa (half of the therapeutic measure) in Shalya tantra like Basti in Kayachikitsa. Acharya Sushruta also mentioned that the diseases which are not relieved so quickly by Snehana, Lepanadi measure, in this Siravedhan do wonders by acting as an emergency management to achieve good results.

Tinea versicolor is a common superficial fungal infection of the skin, prevalent in the hot and humid environment of India. It is caused by the Malassezia species which is a dimorphic, lipophilic fungus most frequently affecting the seborrheic areas of the body like face, neck, upper back and chest. Normally 10- 15% of the general practitioner’s encounter skin disorders in their day to day practice with overall prevalence rate of 30% or more probably occurring in tropical zones. Kustha a type of skin disorder mentioned in Ayurveda is a Tridoshaja Vyadhi, where Twaka, Rakta, Mamsa and Ambu are the main Dushyas. According to Charaka, Sidhma is a Kapha Vata Pradhan Vyadhi and According to Sushruta, Sidhma is Kapha Pradhan vyadhi. Management of sidhma includes Shodhana, Shamana and Bahirparimarjana Chikitsa among them Shamana in the form of kwatha & Bahirparimarjana Chikitsa as Lepa has shown appreciable result in many previous researches. So, need of time is to go for cost effective, safe and efficient treatment of Sidhma. Although, there are many drugs available in modern medical science for the treatment of Pityriasis versicolor which is found to be effective but is unsatisfactory for long term prophylaxis, so there is need of the hour to look into the safe, efficient & satisfactory remedy which not only treat the above ailments, but also ensure reduction in the episodes of relapse of the disease. Keeping all the above points in mind Edagajadi yoga & Gandhapashanadi lepa has been selected to know its efficacy in treating Sidhma kushtha (Pityriasis versicolor). Edagajadi yoga & Gandhapashanadi lepa consists of 10 drugs with different properties which includes Edagaja, Vidanga, Haridra, Daruharidra, Amlatasa, Kushta, Pippali, Gandhak, yavkshar, sarshapa taila. Keywords: Sidhma, Pityriasis versicolor, Edagajadi yoga, Gandhapashanadi lepa

Novel Corona disease becomes a worldwide crisis. Its outbreak starts from China and now it becomes a pandemic. The aim is to review various Ayurvedic remedies for COVID-19. This was purely a literary study done from various Ayurvedic compendiums. As there is no effective treatment in the form medicine &vaccines is available for COVID- 19 in contemporary science. But in the ancient medical science Vatasleshmika Jwara(fever) can be correlated with COVID-19 as Their symptoms are indistinguishable. Like, the clinical features of COVID- 19 are fever, cough, dyspnea, cold, headache, etc. are relatable to Santapa, ShushkaKasa, Bhrushamkshav,Pratishya, Shirograha which are Akshan of Vatasleshmak Jwar. Here, treatment can be given according to the Chikitsa of Vatasleshmakjwar on COVID 19.In current outbreak of Corona; it may prove as a ray of hope for further research.

The Shareera is made up of Dosha, Dhatu and Mala. Among them Dhatu is meant for Dehadharana specifically by Asthi Dhatu. When this dhatu gets vitiated by doshas it leads to a specific condition known as Dhatu Pradoshaja Vikara. Among the Dhatu Pradoshaja Vikaras, Asthi Pradoshaja Vikara is one. Dalhana mentioned the reason behind explaining the Dhatu Pradosaja Vikara separately, these are 1. Chikitsa Vishesa Vijnanartha, 2. Sukha sadhyatvadi Karma Bodhartham Knowledge of these two is very much essential for a Vaidya. Chakrapani distinctly revealed that in some cases only Dosha Viparita Chikitsa will not bring complete relief to the patient. One should treat Dhatu also because of Ashraya Prabhava. Dhatu Pradoshaja Vikara is a condition in which the Dhatus are in vitiated state. Among the Dhatu Pradoshaja Vikaras, Asthi Pradoshaja Vikaras include Adhyasthi, Asthibheda, Asthishula etc. Acharya Charaka mentioned that Panchakarma, Ksheera, Sarpi & Tikta Dravya Basti are the treatment modalities for Asthi Pradoshaja Vikaras. How to cite this article:Shetty RK. Conceptual Study of Asthi Pradoshaja Vikaras. J Adv Res Ayur Yoga Unani Sidd Homeo 2019; 6(3&4): 4-9. DOI: https://doi.org/10.24321/2394.6547.201907

The presence of micropollutants in the environment is today of major concern. These pollutants could have long-term impacts on the environment and on population health. Biological treatment of wastewater is generally insufficient to allow their complete elimination. The establishment of efficient treatments is then needed to degrade the refractory organic matter. Activated carbon adsorption, membrane filtration and oxidation processes are common suitable solutions. All of them have advantages and are effective to treat wastewaters but drawbacks are well known such as waste production, energy consumption or by-products formation. This study aims at defining a strategy to choose the best option according to the nature of the wastewater and the treatment objectives. A methodology was designed for the rating of theses processes to choose the best strategy regarding environmental, technical and economic criteria. A simulation of three wastewater treatment scenarios was carried out to compare the costs of ozonation, adsorption and reverse osmosis. According to the result obtained, a decision tree is proposed to define the best option for a tertiary treatment to reach reuse or discharge objectives.

In Ayurveda, Grahani Dosha is one among the Mahagadas. In modern science, Grahani Dosha included into digestive disorders. It’s prevalence about 69% in current time because of faulty dietary habits, sedentary lifestyle, stress and side effects of modern drugs. This cause leads too many digestive diseases. The organ Grahani is the seat of Jatharagni (digestive fire) both are interrelated. It’s supported and nourished by the strength of Agni. Normally, it receives the in- gested food, which is retained by restraining the downward movement (Grahanati). After diges- tion it releases the food through sides of lumen to next Ashaya i.e. Pakvashaya. In abnormal conditions due to weakness of Agni, it gets vitiated and releases food in indigested form. When Agni is not proper the food will not be digested properly and this undigested food gets fermenta- tion and acts like poison in the body. It’s called Ama. Ama Utpatti leads to Grahani Dosha. Ag- nimandhya is important factor in the Samprapti of the disease Grahani Dosha. So it should be mainly treated for Agnivardhana by Drugs with Deepana (which enhances digestive power) and Pachana (digestive) qualities.

Hyperprolactinemia is detected in patients with infertility, impotence and hypogonadism. It is caused by or is associated with variety of pathological conditions such as pituitary adenoma, hypothalamic disorders, hypothyroidism, adrenocortical tumour etc. If hyperprolactinemia is the reason of Oligozoospermia then bromocriptine administration will improve sperm count.[5] Kraunch beeja has been described to be useful in various diseases of reproductive system in books of Indian medicines (Ayurveda). Clinical research proves its effect on reduction of hyperprolactinemia. As it works on prolactin levels it can be used to treat both Oligozoospermia and Galactorrhoea. The purpose of this study is to overview the effect of Krauncha beeja churna on Sr. Prolactin levels and Sperm count, like the effect of Bromocriptine. So that we can propose the use Krauncha beeja churna instead of Bromocriptine to control hyperprolactinemia and enhance sperm count.

Sarcopenia and frailty have been associated with low aging population capacities for exercise and high metabolic instability. To date, the current models merely support one classification with an accuracy of 83%. The models also reflect overfitting dataset complexities in predicting the accuracy and detecting the misclassifications of rare diseases. As multiple classifications led to incongruent data analyses and methods, each evaluation yielded inaccurate results regarding high prediction accuracy. This study intends to contribute to the current medical informatics literature by comparing the most optimal model to identify relevant patterns and parameters for prediction model development. The methods were duly assessed on a real dataset together with the classification model. Meanwhile, the obesity physical frailty (OPF) model was presented as a conceptual study model. A matrix of accuracy, classification, and feature selection was also utilized to compare the computer output and deep learning models against current counterparts. Essentially, the study findings predicted that an individuals’ risk of sarcopenia corresponded to physical frailty. Each model was compared with an accuracy matrix to determine the best-fitting model. Resultantly, logistic regression produced the highest results with an accuracy rate of 97.69% compared to the other four study models.

Most burns are minor injuries that occur at home or work. It is common to get a minor burn from hot water, a curling iron, or touching a hot stove. Home treatment is usually all that is needed for healing and to prevent other problems, such as infection. Burn injuries are a global public health problem, accounting for an estimated 265,000 deaths. Globally, over half of the disability-adjusted life years lost from fire-related burns which occurred between the ages of 0 and 14 years. The rate of child deaths from burns is currently over 7 times higher in low- and middle-income countries than in high-income countries therefore review of Evaluation of burn injuries has been carried out.

In Ayurveda Samhita Grantha “Arma” is described under ‘’Shuklagata netraroga‟. Arma is a mamsal vruddhi [fleshy growth] developing either from Kaneenika sandhi [inner canthus] or Apanga Sandhi [outer canthus] , or both sides which may progress towards Krishna Mandal [Cornea] . A pterygium is a benign, fleshy triangle of tissue that typically develops in the inner corner of the eye. A Pterygium will not usually cause serious health complications. However, it can sometimes cause discomfort and problems with vision. Prevention, conservative treatment or sometimes surgery is advised for treatment of pterygium.

Covid –19 or Novel Coronavirus is a disease originally distinguished in China at the end of 2019, has caused an enormous worldwide flare-up and a significant general medical problem. Henceforth, WHO has pronounced Coronavirus as the sixth public health emergency of global concern. To forestall the spread of this infection all nations had powerfully placed lockdown. Since no vaccine has been affirmed till now the triads of early evaluating, isolating, and treating the patients were trailed by different medical services places. It is more predominant among the old-aged related to comorbidities and in immunosuppressed. Since this condition is related to numerous complications on many systems, clinical features ranging from asymptomatic to SARS, pneumonia to death of an individual, it has become a need to study this illness fundamentally. Coronavirus is a new disease entity for the Ayurveda which comes under Janapadodhwanasa (worldwide epidemic), Upasargika vyadhi (communicable diseases), and Anukta vyadhi. The term Anukta is used in the sense of unuttered, unsaid, and unheard. The Concept of Anukta is one such time-tested principle that is useful to understand the new disease, drug, and formulations. Covid19 isn't mentioned in traditional writings of Ayurveda yet with the guideline of Anukta vyadhi the pathogenesis, the management, and prevention of the illness can be perceived.

Ayurveda has described main two types of Chikitsa i.e. treatment or Management of any disease i. e. Shaman and Shodhan Chikitsa. Panchakarama is the Shodhan chikitsa of Ayurveda and in Panchakarma All Basti treatment is most important treatment of Shodhan as well as shaman chikitsa which is special treatment of vitiated Vaat dosh. In Sushruta Samhita, four chapters have been devoted completely for the description of the Basti in Chikitsasthana. In these chapters, detailed information regarding Bastinetra, indication, contra-indications, complications, classification of Basti etc. are available. Ashtanga Sangraha: 19th chapter of Sutrasthana has been devoted to karma only. Also four chapters of Kalpasthana have been contributed to Basti. In these chapters, description regarding importance of Basti, different types of Basti, Sneha Basti Vyapada etc. are described. In this chapter classification, indication, contraindication, dosage, process of administration etc. has been described detail. Ashtang Hridaya: In this Samhita, 19th chapter of Sutrasthana Basti Vidhi and 4th and 5th chapter of Kalpasthana named as Basti Kalpa and Basti vyapada Siddhi explain every aspect of Basti.Kashyap Samhita: In Kashyapa Samhita, Basti has been explained in detail in Siddhisthana and Khilasthana. In this conceptual study found that Basti treatment plays major role in shodhan as well as shaman chikitsa therapy as per Ayurveda.

With conventional technique for crude oil dehydration, demulsifying agent or "Demulsifier" is used to separate oil, water and emulsion layers at a certain temperature condition. By this method, it leads to demulsifier loss in a crude oil product. The new concept of the dehydration is to recycle and reuse the demulsifer with minimal investment. With this concept, carbonate-based ionic liquids (CBILs) will be used as a demulsifier to separate emulsions and water in oil, resulting in a decrease in OPEX from demulsifier injection. In addition, CBILs represent versatile, green and easy-to-prepare chemicals. Laboratory test results show that the emulsion between oil and water is able to break within 15 minutes at 60°C which is comparable to conventional demulsifier. Moreover, the cost of CBILs is lower than conventional demulsifier. Therefore, this chemical is proved to be more attractive.

The article presents the concept of ASMR (Autonomous Sensory Meridian Response) from a general and a linguistic perspective. The definition of the notion and a review on the state of research is followed by a classification of ASMR triggers based on the senses which constitute the source of experiencing the ASMR effect. The author argues that touch and smell be included in the classification of the triggers. The linguistic analysis focuses on the following issues: the phonetic properties of the voice triggers, onomastics – a grammatical and conceptual study of the 17 classes of medionyms (names of ASMR channels) which were distinguished in the present research, and the ASMR discourse as the space where phatic and social functions are carried out on the part of ASMRtists as factors developing bonds within the ASMR community and where evaluative and persuasive functions are prominent in the comments of the recipients. Artykuł prezentuje zjawisko ASMR (Autonomous Sensory Meridian Response, tłum. pol. samoistna odpowiedź meridianow czuciowych) z perspektywy ogólnej i lingwistycznej. Definicja pojęcia i zreferowanie stanu badań stanowią wprowadzenie do klasyfikacji wyzwalaczy ASMR ze względu na zmysły stanowiące źródło doświadczania tzw. efektu ASMR. Autor przedstawia argumenty za włączeniem dotyku i zapachu do klasyfikacji wyzwalaczy. Lingwistyczna analiza zjawiska koncentruje się wokół fonetycznych właściwości wyzwalaczy głosowych, aspektów onomastycznych – analiza gramatyczna i konceptualna wyodrębnionych 17 klas medionimów (nazw kanałów ASMR) oraz dyskursu jako przestrzeni, w której realizowane są funkcje – fatyczna i socjalizująca (budujące więź w obrębie społeczności ASMR; ich realizacja leży po stronie artysty ASMR) oraz ewaluatywna i perswazyjna (ich realizacja leży po stronie odbiorców nagrań).

All the living things in an ecosystem continued survival for food and other needs. For the protection of health and production of ailments Hita and Ahita anna is responsible respectively. Agni, which determines the quantity and quality of food to be consumed, is responsible for strength, fitness, longevity and essential breathing. Agni converts food in the form of biological energy, which is responsible for all the vital functions of our body. Grahani is the disease of Annavaha Srotas, as well directly related to status of Agni and diet habits. Passage of stools alternating with constipation or diarrhea (muhur baddham muhur dravam) is the fundamental symptom of Grahani Roga. Ayurveda regards Grahani as a Tridoshatmaka, which is the disorder of digestive system caused by reason of vitiation of Jatharagni, Saman Vayu, Pachakagni, Kledaka Kapha. The failure in digestion of ingested food (production of Pakwapakwam), malabsorption of the food absorption, excessive motility of gut resulting in recurrent emigration of the bowel. All the unpredictable variations of Agni i.e., Mandagni, Tiksnagni and Vishamagni are treated as Grahani Roga. So it should be primarily treated for Agnivardhana Chikitsa with the help of drugs which is Deepana (which boosts digestive power) and Pachana (digestive) qualities.

Acharya Charak in Sutrasthan has classified drug According to their mode of action as “MAHAKSHAYA” and has defined mode of action of Prajasthapan Mahakshaya as that removes the Doshas which cause hindrance in process of conception and for the viability and sustenance of pregnancy. In this study aim would be to analyze the mode of action of each drug with its Rasa,Guna,Virya,Vipak and Doshagnta in conception and maintenance of Preganacy especially in case of BOH due to Recurrent Abortion where there is fetal loss especially in First trimester .Prajasthapan Mahakshaya executes its mode of action by two means : 1st-Maintainence of Healthy Environment of Conception. 2nd-Preventing the loss of pregnancy This mode of action can be established by usage Prajasthapan Mahakshya in First trimester of Pregnancy instead of use of Human chorionicgonadotropin and micronized progesterone as support in first trimester of pregnancy .Hence effort has been made to provide an alternative to Modern drug and Theoretical establishing the efficacy and pharmacological action of Prajasthapan Mahakshaya.

Mukhadushika is explained by Sushruta under Kushudrarogas. It is characterized by Shalmali Kantka sadrush Pidaka on face. It co-relates to acne vulgaris explained in modern science. These acnes when not treated in the earlier stage leads to severity and hence leave permanent scars, which mentally depresses individual and face insecure. Hence there is a need to counter this condition effectively and prevent its progress to severity and thereby preventing the eruption of new lesions. &nbsp

Sleep or Nidra is essential for our well being and occupies about one third of our life span. Sleep affects how we feel and perform on daily basis, which has major impact on our overall quality of liveliness. Getting enough quality of sleep at right times can protect our physical and mental health, quality of life and safety. The way we feel when we are awake depend in part on what happens when we are asleep. The constructive effects of natural sleep have been deeply considered and interpreted by Ayurvedic literature as well as modern researches. Certain people have considered sleep as a mere break down time when our brain takes rest. Some of the conditions like obesity, cardiovascular diseases, diabetes etc. occur due to long periods of sleep deprivations. The present article is aimed to highlight the significance of proper sleep and effect of sleep deprivation on health in view of Ayurveda and contemporary science.

Cardiovascular disease has the most prevalence of serious diseases and is a rapidly growing problem in developing countries. In Ayurved literature available, the purpose of ayurved is given as prevention of disease for healthy living and treating the diseases person. The same is explained in modern science as ‘Prevention is better than cure’. In the case of cardiology- diet, lifestyle changes are contributing to increase the risk of cardiovascular diseases. In view to avoid further complications, preventive measures should be taken in the field of cardiology with the help of ayurved, which includes Rasayan therapy, Panchakarma chitiksa, Diet and lifestyle modification, Yoga and Pranayam for prevention of cardiovascular disease. Risk factors for cardiovascular diseases includes Hypertension, obesity, Diabetes mellitus, Rheumatic disorders, most of the risk factors are related to our daily lifestyle and diet.
