Ayurveda is a traditional form of medicine used by majority of the Indians. Here we report three cases of lead toxicity, following
intake of Ayurvedic medicines. Three patients presented with blood lead levels (BLLs) of 122.4, 115 and 42.8 μg/dl respectively
at the time of hospitalization. The first case was chelated with D- penicillamine, the second with calcium disodium ethylene
diamino tetra acetate (EDTA) and the third with environmental intervention and education. Associated Ayurvedic products were
collected from patients and analyzed for metallic concentration. Cessation of Ayurvedic medication along with chelation, nutritional
intervention and education, reduced the BLL to 27.4 μg/dl in the first case after 1 year, 21.1 μg/dl after 9 months in the
second and 18.2 μg/dl after 6 months in the third case. 相似文献

Indian ethnicity by itself is a strong risk factor for development of CAD in Indian postmenopausal women due to lower HDL
levels as compared to Whites and women of oriental origin. We evaluated and compared the short-term effects of menopause,
estrogen replacement therapy and combined estrogen and progestin replacement therapy on various atherogenic indices. 40 postmenopausal
women, both surgical and natural (20 each) were selected. 10 surgical postmenopausal women were given 0.625 mg conjugated
estrogens daily for 6 months and 10 natural postmenopausal women were given 0.625 mg conjugated estrogen with 2.5 mg medroxyprogesterone
acetate daily. 20 women were included in the control group and given placebo. Fasting venous blood samples were analyzed for
extended lipid profile and calculated atherogenic indices before starting the therapy and after 1,3 and 6 months. LDL and
Apolipoprotein B increased (p<0.05) and those of Apolipoprotein A1 and HDL decreased in the control groups. In both the study
groups levels of serum cholesterol and LDL decreased (p<0.05) and those of HDL and Apolipoprotein A1 increased (p<0.01). LDL/HDL,
Apo B/ApoA1, Total Cholesterol/HDL decreased significantly (p<0.05) in both the study groups compared to the control groups.
The effect of estrogen alone was more significant as compared to combination therapy. Log Triglycerides (TG)/HDL ratio showed
a decrease in women on estrogen alone but the difference was not significant. Our study confirms that short term HRT has a
favorable effect on atherogenic indices in Indian postmenopausal women. 相似文献

This study reports a droplet-based microfluidic device for on-demand electrostatic droplet charging and sorting. This device combines two independent modules: one is a hydrodynamic flow focusing structure to generate water-in-oil droplets, and the other is the two paired-electrodes for charging and sorting of the droplets. Depending on the polarity on charging electrodes, water-in-oil droplets can be electrostatically charged positively or negatively, followed by automatic real-time electric sorting. This approach will be useful when preformed droplets, with a positive, a negative, or with no charge, need to be manipulated for further on-chip droplet manipulation. 相似文献

Serum antioxidant status and peroxidative stress was estimated in 30 pregnant women, their newborn infants and 25 non-pregnant
women. Serum Ascorbic acid, α-tocopherol, retinol & β-carotene levels were found to be significantly reduced and peroxidative
stress was significantly higher in mothers as compared to matched non-pregnant women. Newborn had significantly higher levels
of ascorbic acid as compared to their mother but had significantly lower levels of lipid soluble vitamins. The peroxidative
stress in newborn was found to be significantly less as compared to their mothers. A positive correlation of ascorbic acid
and α-tocopherol levels between mother and newborn reflects that their status in mother does influence the newborn status. 相似文献

Protein oxidation has been demonstrated in preeclampsia, but this finding has not been established in other hypertensive disorders in pregnancy (HDP). The present study comparatively evaluated ischemia modified albumin (IMA) and advanced oxidation protein products (AOPP) in different HDP and investigated their association with total antioxidant activity (AOA) and total thiols. There was a significant increase in AOPP and IMA, a significant decrease in AOA, total thiols and albumin in every HDP compared to controls. Among HDP groups, eclampsia patients showed more significant change in each of the parameter. IMA and AOPP were negatively associated with AOA in every HDP and with total thiols only in eclampsia. The present study supports the hypothesis of oxidative stress, as evidenced by increased protein oxidation, decreased antioxidant status and significant negative association between protein oxidation and AOA in every HDP. The imbalance of prooxidants and antioxidants was further augmented in eclampsia. 相似文献

Serum glycoproteins were evaluated in oral squamous cell carcinoma patients treated with radiotherapy and also the effect
of vitamin E was studied. Cell surface glycoconjugates are important parameters in the detection of malignancy. Thus, the
objective of the present study is to evaluate the efficacy of vitamin E on glycoproteins in oral cavity cancer patients treated
with radiotherapy. The study includes 26 age and sex matched normal healthy individuals and 26 patients with squamous cell
carcinoma of oral cavity. These patients were divided into two groups, one for radiotherapy alone (at a dosage of 6000 cGy
in five fractions per week for a period of six weeks) and the other for radiotherapy plus vitamin E supplementation (at a
dosage of 400 IU / day of vitamin E) for the entire period of radiotherapy. Levels of hexose, hexosamine, fucose and sialic
acid were increased in oral squamous cell carcinoma patients and a significant decrease was observed in radiation treated
patients when compared to control. The levels of glycoconjugates were significantly decreased in radiation treated patients
supplemented with vitamin E. This measurement may be useful in assessing disease progression and identifying patients resistant
to therapy and a possible role of vitamin E on reduction in glycoconjugate levels of radiation treated oral squamous cell
carcinoma patients. 相似文献

Soy isoflavones and soy proteins are being considered as possible alternatives to postmenopausal hormone replacement therapy.
This study was undertaken to evaluate effects of these two preparations on symptoms and lipid profile in postmenopausal women.
The study was done in 75 postmenopausal women with FSH levels = 30 mIU/ml. These women were randomly divided into 3 groups
(n=25). Study group I was given soy proteins 30gm/day containing 60 mg soy isoflavones. Study group II was given soy isoflavones
(60 mg/day). The control group was given casein protein 30 gm/day. The menopausal symptoms were assessed by Kupperman Index.
Fasting blood samples were analyzed for serum lipid profile, apolipoprotein A1 and B, Leutenizing Hormone (LH) and Follicle-Stimulating
Hormone (FSH) at the beginning of therapy, 4 and 12 weeks after initiation of therapy. A highly significant improvement in
postmenopausal symptoms was observed in both the study groups. A highly significant improvement was seen in serum lipid profile
and Apolipoprotein A1 and B in women taking soy proteins whereas women taking soy isoflavones demonstrated significant improvement
in serum triglycerides only. Both soy proteins and soy isoflavones are helpful in alleviating postmenopausal symptoms but
soy proteins offer a greater health advantage due to their beneficial effect on serum lipid profile. 相似文献
