Until 2019, 10.9 million DM cases were found in Indonesia and are suspected of continuing to increase. Cinnamon (Cinnamomum Burmannii) has several active ingredients vizcoumarin, cinnamat, cinnamaldehid, polyphenols and flavonoid can increase glucose transport by GLUT 4 in adipose cells and skeletal muscles so as to significantly reduce blood glucose. Thus, cinnamon has the potential to be a useful product for the community, namely a diabetes herbal medicine. The purpose of this research was to determine the ratio of the temperature of the cinnamon steeping water with the duration of steeping on the glycemic response of diabetic rats.</p> <p>This research uses Completely randomized design (CRD) with 2 factors, namely the first factor (P): steeping water temperature (65<sup> o</sup>C, 75<sup> o</sup>C, and 85<sup> o</sup>C) and brewing time (20 minutes, 25 minutes and 30 minutes) and the second factor (L): test time (30 minutes, 60 minutes, 90 minutes and 120 minutes). &nbsp;This study also carried out control (-) and control (+) as a preliminary study to determine the glycemic response in test animals. Each treatment will be repeated 3 times to obtain 33 experimental units. The parameters analyzed were blood sugar levels, the percentage (%) increase in blood sugar levels, and the percentage (%) decrease in blood sugar levels.</p> <p>The results showed that temperature of the cinnamon steeping water (Cinnamomum Burmannii) and the duration of brewing can reduce the blood sugar levels of mice every time the test is carried out. The best treatment was obtained from the ratio of the temperature of the steeping water and the duration of steeping, namely 65 <sup>o</sup>C and brewing time for 25 minutes, determined based on the percentage decrease in blood sugar level, which is equal to 53,02%.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> Ariko Targinta Tarigan Zulkifli Lubis Albiner Siagian ##submission.copyrightStatement## http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/4.0 2023-08-13 2023-08-13 11 4 1 6 10.22270/ajprd.v11i4.1278 Discomfort of pregnant women on the quality sleep of third trimester pregnant women https://ajprd.com/index.php/journal/article/view/1206 <p>Background: Physical changes in the third trimester of pregnancy will appear due to physiological changes and psychological changes that cause discomfort.

The controlled and prolonged release of drugs in the colon can significantly improve the treatment outcomes for various colon-related diseases. Microspheres, small spherical particles with sizes ranging from 1 to 1000 micrometers, were formulated using biodegradable polymers and natural materials to ensure biocompatibility and controlled drug release. The formulation process involved the selection of appropriate polymers, such as poly lactic acid and polyglycolic acid, and the incorporation of the drug within the microspheres. Various techniques, including solvent evaporation, coacervation, and spray drying, were employed to prepare the microspheres with the desired drug-loading efficiency and particle size distribution.The formulated microspheres were extensively evaluated to assess their suitability for sustained release colon-targeted drug delivery. Evaluation parameters included drug encapsulation efficiency, particle size distribution, surface morphology and in vitro.In vitro drug release studies were conducted using simulated gastrointestinal fluids to mimic the conditions in the gastrointestinal tract. The sustained release microspheres exhibited controlled drug release over an extended period, specifically in the colon region. This sustained release profile was achieved by optimizing the polymer composition and formulation parameters, which allowed for the gradual degradation of the microspheres and subsequent release of the drug.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> Tushar Kumar G.

The compression can be caused by skeletal abnormalities, swelling of other tissues within the tunnel or thickness of the retinaculum. The condition is common in middle aged women at the menopause. In younger patients the cause may be rheumatoid disease, pregnancy or tenosynovitis. It is a condition that causes pain, numbness, tingling, and weakness in the hand and wrist. Carpal tunnel syndrome has fast growing annual incidence rate of 5 to 50 per Ten thousand populations. Modern treatment for this condition includes injecting hydrocortisone into flexor sheaths at the carpal tunnel, wearing cock-up splint and longitudinal division of the flexor retinaculum. On the basis of structures involved and features of carpal tunnel syndrome this condition can be correlated with Snayugata Vata Vikara which affects tendons ligaments and nerve. Sushruta has advised Agnikarma for disorders of snayu (ligaments and tendons), asthi (bone), siddhi (joints) etc. Hence, in this study a case of carpel tunnel syndrome (snayugatavata) was treated by Agnikarma, along with administration of Navajivana Rasa orally, for a period of 04 weeks. This combination therapy provided considerable relief in pain and tingling sensation of wrist.</p> <p><strong>&nbsp;</strong></p> Dhruval Padadharia Jigna Patel Varsha Sharma Damini Parmar ##submission.copyrightStatement## http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/4.0 2023-08-13 2023-08-13 11 4 65 67 10.22270/ajprd.v11i4.1309 Application of Nimbadi Ointment after Chhedankarma in the Management of Gudavidradhi-A Case Study https://ajprd.com/index.php/journal/article/view/1311 <p>Phenomena of <em>vidradhi </em>formation is due to vitiation of <em>dosha </em>resides in <em>asthi </em>and spreads and vitiates to the <em>twacha</em>, <em>rakta</em>, <em>mamsa</em>, <em>meda</em> and gradually reformed into excessively severe inflammatory swelling, which is <em>maha-mulam </em>(deep rooted), <em>rujavantam </em>(severe painful) <em>vruttam </em>(round) or <em>aayatam </em>(elongated in shape) that is called<em>vidhradhi</em><sup>1</sup><em>. </em>In case of pei-anal abscess, originates from an infection arising in the crypto glandular epithelium lin-ing of the anal canal spreading into adjacent space and resulting in fistulas 40% of cases.

Shoulder pain is one of the most common health problems encountered in the general population.Shoulder pain is a common symptom, in especially in office workers. In developed countries, approximately twothirds of people experience shoulder pain. This disorder occurs most frequently in the middle-aged population and more often in females than in males. A majority of the acute shoulder sufferers obtain spontaneous relief within days or weeks, although approximately 10% of acute shoulder pain suffers experience the condition as chronic or persistent. Conventional treatments such as medications and surgery were not always effective, and may have serious adverse effects.</p> <p>Frozen shoulder is a chronic aseptic inflammation caused by injury and degeneration of shoulder capsule and periarthritic soft tissue (including ligaments, muscles, tendons, synovial sacs, etc.). <a href="#_edn1" name="_ednref1">[i]</a>Cupping is gaining popularity in physical medicine due to its ease of use, lack of side effects, and pain relief.

Hemostasis, inflammatory, proliferative, and tissue remodelling or resolution are the four perfectly timed and highly planned phases that make up the normal biological process of wound healing in the human body. There are two basic categories of wounds: acute wounds and chronic wounds. Long-term negative effects on one's health are caused by the chronic metabolic condition known as diabetes mellitus, which is becoming more common. 25 percent of those with diabetes mellitus are thought to have poor wound healing due to their diabetes. Oxygenation, infection, hormones related to ageing and sex, stress, diabetes, and obesity, drugs, alcoholism, smoking, and diet are among the factors that affect wound healing. To address their basic medical needs, According to estimates, 80% of people who live in underdeveloped nations need traditional medicines, which are typically made from medicinal plants. Numerous individuals in Africa and other poor nations employ using medicinal herbs to cure diabetic wounds and associated issues due to the abundant supply With therapeutic herbs and enough conventional wisdom regarding wounds healing.

Microspheres can be created using both natural and artificial polymers and are typically free-flowing powders. The microspheres' diameters range from 1 to 1000 m. In microspheres, the medicine is evenly spread, dissolved, or suspended in a matrix system. Drugs that are either solid or liquid are dissolved or disseminated in a matrix system in microspheres. The current review gives a thorough overview of recent and innovative advancements on microsphere forms that have been claimed to boost bioavailability, improve stability, lengthen biological half-life, and lessen drug toxicity. Many different proteins and peptide compounds can be delivered effectively by microsphere. Microspheres come in a variety of forms, including bioadhesive, magnetic, polymeric, floating, and floating microspheres. In order to create microspheres, a variety of techniques are employed, including simple emulsion-based, double emulsion-based, interfacial deposition, interfacial polymerisation, phase separation, and spray drying. Through a variety of delivery methods, including oral, topical, naso-pulmonary, and gene therapy, microspheres administer the medication in a regulated manner. Due to their ability to encapsulate a variety of medications, biocompatibility, high bioavailability, and continuous drug release nature, polymeric based microspheres serve as ideal carriers for several controlled delivery applications. As a result, by creating novel procedures, it can increase therapeutic results and enhance drug safety.

A quick introduction of various different types of traditional and cutting-edge drug carrier systems is provided in the section that follows.Avariety of topical active substances, such as sunscreen ingredients, corticosteroids, and antibacterial, antifungal, and antiviral agents, can be delivered via foam technology. Ointments are semisolids used for external skin or mucous membrane treatment. Less than 20% of them often contain water and volatiles. Targeted medication delivery to and through the skin has a lot of potential using nano systems like micro emulsions and nano emulsions. By lowering surface and inter facial tension and increasing the viscosity of the aqueous phase, nanoemulgel improves a stable nano emulsion formulation. The various carrier types that the authors used in their formulation and conclusion have been added as a final effort for this work, highlighting the need to establish a strong double link between the newly developed industrial processes and the flexibility of medication delivery systems that is so desperately neededfor use with people.</p> <p><strong>&nbsp;</strong></p> <p>&nbsp;</p> Prasanthi D Sagarla Usharani Naredla Bhashpitha ##submission.copyrightStatement## http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/4.0 2023-08-13 2023-08-13 11 4 115 122 10.22270/ajprd.v11i4.1294 Registration of Import License for IVD’S In India. https://ajprd.com/index.php/journal/article/view/1297 <p>India is a huge market for medical devices and is constantly increasing last few years.

Emulgels are both O/W or W/O emulsions which might be gelled with the aid of mixing with a gelling agent. Incorporating the emulgel increases its stability and makes it controlled release system. Due to the lack of excess oil bases and insoluble excipients, it exhibits better drug release compared to other topical drug delivery systems. The presence of the gel phase makes it non-greasy and promotes good affected person cooperation. Those reviews provide knowledge approximately Emulgel such as its properties, benefits, formulations and its current research advances. All elements consisting of the choice of gelling agent, oil agent, emulsifiers affecting the stability and effectiveness of Emulgel are discussed. All rationales are defined in accordance with study conducted via numerous scientists. After anin depth examine, it could be concluded that Emulgels appear to be a better and greater&nbsp; effective drug delivery system compared to other topical drug delivery systems. A complete analysis of the rheological and release properties will offer insight into the capacity&nbsp; use of the Emulgel formulation as a drug delivery System.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> Kajal T.

According to ICH-GCP, the sponsor has the responsibility for preserving the monitoring of data for the continuing trials. Due to the development of remote monitoring, the monitoring of the trials has become fairly simple for the CRA (a person assigned by the sponsor to monitor the ongoing trials). The primary benefit of remote monitoring is that it speeds up the on-time completion of work by reducing the time required for final trial reports output. It significantly lowers the sponsor's travel costs. Reducing the time between site monitoring enhances the accuracy and timeliness of study data and increases the safety of human subjects participating in a clinical trial. By using the secure off-site electronic health records access&nbsp;is currently utilized for clinical care, and also used to validate the source documentation. This article provides an overview of the offsite monitoring processes involved and standards adopted in remote monitoring.</p> <p><strong>&nbsp;</strong></p> Sudhakar Pachiappan Anjali Gnanasambandam Selva Preethi Samundi Selva Prasanthi Parameshwaran Asma Fathumuthu Hassan Ali Poorana Pushkalai Saravanan ##submission.copyrightStatement## http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/4.0 2023-08-13 2023-08-13 11 4 139 142 10.22270/ajprd.v11i4.1300 Overview on Niosome https://ajprd.com/index.php/journal/article/view/1295 <p>Pharmaceutical such achemicals can be administered locally to sick locations using target-specific drug-delivery devices.Some of the carriers used in various drug delivery techniques includesynthetic polymers, serum proteins, and immune globulins, liposomes, and microspheres.

Memory loss, difficulty communicating, depression, agitation, mood swings, and psychosis all develop gradually in this disorder. Reduced physical activity, infection, smoking, and the prevalence of diseases like obesity and diabetes all pose a risk for the development of AD. Current synthetic medications only alleviate symptoms by targeting a single molecule, so they can't deal with the complex pathogenesis of AD. The scientific community is actively working to characterise therapeutic agents derived from plants that have shown promise in the literature in treating AD due to their perceived efficacy, safety, and availability. Traditional Chinese medicine includes the use of the plant <em>Centella asiatica</em> for its purported benefits to cognitive performance and memory. Pentacyclic triterpenes are largely responsible for its therapeutic and medicinal effects, which include accelerated enhanced memory. These pentacyclic triterpenoids are asiaticoside and madecassoside as saponins and their aglycones, asiatic acids and madecassic acids. Amongst other triterpenoid Asiatic acid has several therapeutic properties against AD like anti-cholinesterase, neuroprotective and anti-inflammatory. This review focused on the pathophysiology of AD followed by a detailed account on Asiatic acid and the research findings to date related to its mechanism of action on AD, advantage over other two terpenoid, BBB permeability, Pharmacokinetic, molecular docking and different therapeutic activities.</p> <p><strong>&nbsp;</strong></p> Sudipta Chakraborty Abhipsa Sinha ##submission.copyrightStatement## http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/4.0 2023-08-13 2023-08-13 11 4 162 176 10.22270/ajprd.v11i4.1302
