ABSTRACT
The disease Amlapitha is vividly described in
different classical texts of Ayurveda like Kasyapa
Samhita and Madhava Nidana. As
per classics Amlapitha can be defined
as a condition where already accumulated pitha
in the body gets further aggravated by consuming virudha dushta vidagdha aharas that is incompatible food
combinations, putrified foods, overburnt foods and drinks. The main clinical
features of Amlapitha include avipaka, klama, utklesha, thikthamlodgara, hritkantadaha, guruta and aruchi. Excessive formation of vitiated
pitha is the main pathological
mechanism behind the manifestation of this disease. It is a pithavikruta annavaha srotovikara
associated with vitiation of kledaka
kapha. Here pithavikruti
increases the quantity of dravarupa pachaka
pitha and affects the quality of kledaka
kapha. Symptomatically modern
correlation of Amlapitha appears most
similar to Functional Dyspepsia. Dyspepsia is a symptom complex connected to
the gastro-duodenal region of gastrointestinal tract and includes postprandial
fullness, early satiety, epigastric burning vomiting, nausea which has a
significant impact on health. More than 50% of patients are on medications most
of the time and have significantly reduced quality of life in comparison with
the general population. Functional dyspepsia is a common ailment with possible
causative factors being the change in lifestyle and food habits. Patients with
functional dyspepsia account for about 80 percent of cases and have no
structural explanation for the same. Even though pathophysiology cannot be
accurately explained, studies point to disordered communication between gut and
brain leading to motility disturbances visceral hypersensitivity and alteration
in visceral microbiota mucosal and CNS processing. Psychological factors and
stress are found to be aggravating factors and are attributed to pitta dosha. In
amlapitta pitta and kapha are the key factors in pathology.
This study is being undertaken in an effort to find an effective combination of
medicines in the management. It includes
administration of Avipattikara churna
with shankha bhasma and sharibadi panaka for 21 days. A follow
up of these patients is also done. Results of the study showed significant
reduction in symptoms. Chi square value for comparing the effect of
intervention on total score at different time periods was found to be
significant and P value was less than 0.001. At 1% level of significance, there
is a significant difference in total scores. It suggests that treatment can
lessen the severity of the illness.

DISSERTATION TITLE : EFFECT OF SELECTED AYURVEDIC TREATMENT MODALITIES ALONG WITH SLEEP HYGIENE EDUCATION IN
PRIMARY INSOMNIA

ABSTRACT
Sleep, a physiological state of rest
during which volition and consciousness are in partial or complete abeyance, plays a recuperative and adaptive function
in human lives.
Quality sleep acts as
rejuvenator, enabling us to function at our zenith during working hours where
deprivation of the same causes a lot of neurophysiological derailment in the
body.
Insomnia is in fact,
both a symptom as well as a disorder. If left untreated, insomnia increases
the risk of developing diseases like depression, diabetes, hypertension and
possibly even death in older individuals as per reported studies1.
Therefore it is very much essential to identify and treat the condition of insomnia at the earliest.
‘Sleep hygiene’ is the term used to describe good sleep habits.Considerable research
has gone into developing a set of guidelines designed
to enhance good sleeping, and there is much evidence
to suggest that sleep hygiene are fairly inexpensive but much effective
intervention. There are many medications used to treat insomnia, but these lead
to dependence and interfere with one’s day to day activites, thereby prolonging
sleep difficulties2.
In Ayurveda, Nidra is one among the Trayopasthambha.
Nidranasha is a nanatmaja vikara mentioned by Charaka3. Principle dosas involved are vata and pitta.
Study to be carried out may be helpful in the management of
Primary Insomnia in patients attending Kayachikitsa OPD and IPD Govt Ayurveda
College Hospital Thiruvananthapuram. It is interventional pre and post single group with sample size of 20 participants fulfilling the inclusion and exclusion criteria
diagnosed as primary insomnia as per ICD11 criteria
will be selected and subjected to detailed clinical examination according to
clinical research proforma. The intervention includes trina panchamoola ksheera shirodhara for 45 minutes for a duration
of 7 days followed by internal administration of Sankhupushpi choornam capsules for a duration of 14 days along with
sleep hygiene. Quality and quantity of the sleep will be assessed. Proper
evaluation before and after the intervention will be adhered to and follow-up
will be done at the end of study. The results obtained will be statiscally
analysed and concluded.

ABSTRACT
Diabetic neuropathy (DN) refers to the presence of symptoms
or signs of peripheral nerve dysfunction in people with diabetes mellitus after
exclusion of other causes. Distal symmetrical neuropathy is the commonest,
accounting for 75% of DN. Over a period
of time, the nerves gets affected, especially the peripheral nerves leading to
Diabetic Peripheral Neuropathy (DPN). DPN being a progressive complication phase of diabetes
can be understood as Vata pitta predominant thridosha stage with concepts of
Avarana, causing dhathukshaya . The drugs used conventionally are mostly for
relief in the symptoms and moreover a large population of patients began
to choose among
alternative medicinal options, there comes the need for more research in
Ayurveda medicines too.
According to Ayurveda classics, there is no direct
nomenclature for DPN , but can be treated
under the spectrum of prameha upadrava involving thridosha
dushti and dasa dathu dusthi. Diagnosis of DPN is done by Nerve
Stimulation study and Toronto Clinical Neuropathy Score. Effect of sundibaladwaya kwatha
with ksheerabala 7 avarthi anupana is a previous study conducted in
GAVC, TVM by Dr. Arunitha during 2017 which was found to be effective in DN,
with a P value of 0.001 . In this study, along with the previous study drug ,
an external intervention of dhara with dhanyamla is also included to assess the effect. Dhanyamla
is dahasamana, sparsa seethala and vatha kapha samana. When
administered as a Dhara procedure, it
facilitates vasodilation as well
as nerve stimulation and helps in
reducing occlusion, thereby correcting
the pathology of Diabetic Peripheral Neuropathy As a disease of chronic origin and deep
seated pathology,Vatha predominant thridosha dushti may be
considered ,for the symptoms of numbness and parasthesia Vatha- Kapha dushti
and for symptoms like burning sensation, Pitha dushti can be accounted.Thus this intervention helps in samana of prakupitha
vatha along with pacifying vitiated pitha and kapha.
