A wound is a breakthrough of skin; it disrupts the normal functioning of skin. So, the wound healing process is important to repair the skin. It restores the normal function and structure of the skin. There are several phases of the wound healing process: inflammation, re-epithelization, vascularization, and granulation tissue formation and maturation. The wound healing process can be studied using in-vitro and in-vivo methods. There are many in-vivo methods to study the wound healing process. In-vivo method uses laboratory animals for the study. Animals used are mice, rats, rabbits, and pigs. Recently, Zebrafish have been used as a model to study the wound healing process. Zebrafish are used because it has similar wound closure properties as mammalian embryos. The wound healing can be studied by amputating the caudal fin of fish and recording the regeneration of the fin on days 5th, 7th and 9th post-amputation. This study compares various wound healing agents with the market product (neomycin cream). The various wound healing agents used in this study are...

The most important risk factor for cardiovascular disease is high blood pressure, which accounts for around one-third of those who have it. A majority of those who have hypertension are not on antihypertensive medication. It is not a disease, but it is an important risk factor for cardiovascular disease. Hypertension includes the intricate exchange of natural and pathophysiological factors that influence numerous frameworks, just as hereditary inclination. Investigation of patients with hypertension incorporates exact normalized blood pressure (BP) estimation, evaluating patients’ anticipated danger of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease, declaration of target organ harm, location of auxiliary reasons for hypertension, and presence of comorbidities, including cardiovascular disease kidney infection. As a part of many risk factor reduction activities, combination drug therapy is as a well-established option for cardiovascular disease risk reduction. Over the past couple of years, there has been much research done on antihypertensive drugs and there have been many patents that can be beneficial for research purposes. A key element of discovering new drugs, advancing new drugs and assembling...

Objectives: Ears are an important part in our facial aesthetics and cosmetics. Complete and partial ear cleft patients are routine in the ENT outpatient department for surgical repair. The objective of this study is to evaluate the surgical outcomes of auricular lobuloplasty. Methods: Total 446 patients who underwent auricular lobuloplasty were included in this study. Demographic characteristics, the average duration of earrings worn, presence of complications and other factors were evaluated. Result: The mean follow-up was 9 months, with the shortest and the longest follow-up being 6 and 12 months, respectively. Surgeries were performed under local anesthesia in 446 cases. There were very few postoperative complications, and revision surgery was needed in 7 out of 446. Conclusion: Multiple surgical techniques exist for repairing earlobe deformities. Auricular lobuloplasty via sandwich technique is a surgical procedure that has several advantages, including safety ease of use, effectiveness, cheap, and without any advanced skills and instrument...

The present study was carried out to evaluate the hypolipidemic and hypoglycemic effects of the plant Barleria cristata L. Phytochemical screening of crude powdered leaf extract of Barleria cristata L. revealed the presence of various bioactive phytoconstituents. An acute toxicity study of 50% hydroethanolic leaf extract of Barleria cristata L. reported that at all normal therapeutic doses, the test sample was safe for oral treatment. There was no significant change in the bodyweight of rats. Diabetes was induced in experimental rats by the intraperitonial injection of Alloxan. The 50% hydroethanolic extract of Barleria cristata L effectively lowered the blood glucose level in diabetic rats which was equal to glibenclamide treated rats. The plant extract treated HLD rats showed a dose related hypolipidemic activity. All the lipid components – TC, TG, LDL-C, VLDL-Cholesterol levels were reduced significantly, and HDL-C, protective cholesterol level was increased. The present study clearly indicated that 50% hydroethanolic extract of Barleria cristata L. leaf had produced a hypoglycemic and hypolipidemic effect on both diabetic and HLD...

Triumfetta rhomboidea, often known as diamond burbark or Chinese bur, is a member of the Tiliaceae family. The plant is known as a weed, but a number of medicinal properties have been reported for its different parts. It is a tropical and subtropical shrub that can be found in India, Ceylon, the Malay Peninsula, China, Africa, and America. According to phytochemical analysis, it contains carbohydrate glycosides, phytosterol, steroids, flavonoids, tannin & phenolic compounds, and triterpenoids, which can be associated with various pharmacological properties such as antioxidant, antimicrobial, antitumor, antibacterial, diuretic, anti-diabetic, antiproliferative, anti-inflammatory, antitubercular, anthelmintic and lactogenic properties. This review mainly focuses on the traditional uses of various plant parts, phytochemical constituents and reported pharmacological...
