                                          Respiratory Disease

Respiratory Disease is defined as medical conditions, affecting the breathing organ and tissues including Inflammatory lung disease, Obstructive lung diseases, Restrictive lung diseases, Respiratory tract infections, trachea, bronchi, bronchioles, alveoli, the nerves and muscles breathing , etc,.

                   Pleural disease: Pleural effusion

The pleura is a thin tissue covered by a layer of cells (mesothelial cells) that surrounds the lungs and lines the inside of the chest wall.
Pleural effusion is a condition of collection of fluid within the pleural cavity as a result of heart failure, bleeding (hemothorax), infections, excessive or decreased fluid volume, etc.

                            The Symptoms

Patients in the early stage of the diseases are experience no symptoms, but in cases of inflammation or presence of excessive or decreased fluid volume, symptoms include
1. DyspneaThere is a report of a hypertensive 58-year-old woman with hepatic nodules presented dyspnea and pleural effusion one week after an episode of pulmonary embolism(12).
2. Shortness of breath and abdominal distention There is a report of an 84-year-old man presented to his local hospital after falling from his wheelchair. He had tachypnea and abdominal distention. Chest radiography revealed a right-sided pleural effusion, and abdominal radiography showed dilated loops of bowel, suggestive of bowel obstruction, with symptoms of shortness of breath and abdominal distention(13).
3. Chest painthere is a report of a case of a patient who experienced atelectasis of the lower lobe of the left lung and pleural effusion manifested by chest pain after continuous interscalene brachial plexus block for postoperative analgesia(14).
4. FeverIn the study to evaluate patients who have both fever of unknown origin (FUO) and a nondiagnostic pleural effusion, one week after admission to a department of general internal medicine over 15 years of found that seven were found to have associated pleural effusion(s) on admission (9.8%). In these patients, the pleural effusion was predominantly left-sided, small to moderate in amount and nondiagnostic on thoracentesis(15).
5. Cough There is a case records of the Massachusetts General Hospital. Weekly clinicopathological exercises. Case 25-1996. A 38-year-old man with fever, cough, and a pleural effusion(16).
6. Interscapular painThere is a report of a 48-year-old woman with a pleural pseudoneoplasm requiring different diagnostic and therapeutic strategies. After initial presentation with increasing dyspnoea, temperature, dry cough, and interscapular pain diagnostic processing showed a large mediastinal mass with marked pleural effusion and high metabolic activity in the 18F-FDG-PET/CT(17).

The smoothie for prevention and treatment of Variegate porphyria (VP)
Yield: 2 servings (about 8 ounces each)
3/4 cup tomato
3/4 cup cooked sweet potato
1 cup orange juice

1. Place all ingredients in a blender and puree about 1 minute
2. Blend on high speed about 1 minute or until the mixture is thick and the ice is well crushed.
3. Serve immediately

The finding of a natural source for treatment of Variegate porphyria (VP) has been running into many obstacles, many ingredients showed initially with promising result in animal studies have not produced same potentials in large sample size and mutli centers human trials.

Variegate porphyria (VP) is the result of decreased protoporphyrinogen oxidase (PPOX) in in biosynthesis of protoporphyrin IX activity and results in accumulation of porphyrins and porphyrin precursors. According to the Universitat de les Illes Balears, oral intake of vitamins E and C supplementation restores PPOX expression in VP patients and enhances antioxidants Glutathione reductase (GRd) and superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity, of that suggested potential benefits of a diet rich in vitamins E(found abundantly in Sweet Potato) and C (found abundantly Orange)in these patients(1).
Dr, Ferrer MD and professor at the Universitat de les Illes Balears insisted, dietary supplementation with vitamin E (50 mg/d) andvitamin C (150 mg/d) for 6 months decreased plasma oxidative damage and enhanced the erythrocyte activities of CAT and GR. in patients with variegate porphyria (VP)(2).

Canthaxanthin, one of two major carotenoids found in tomato, significantly improved 2 out of 5 patients with Variegate porphyria (VP) according to Dr, Eales L.(3).

The effectiveness of Tomato, Orange and Sweet Potato may serve as cornerstones of pharmaceutical target for further studies in production of a potential medication for prevention and  treatment of Variegate porphyria (VP) with little or no adverse effects.

People who are at high risk of Variegate porphyria (VP)  due to family history, genetic mutation, ..... should drink at least one serving daily and people with Variegate porphyria (VP)  should drink the smoothie as much as they can, depending to digestive toleration.
Life style and dietary patter change are recommended.

In traditional Chinese medicine perspective
A. Ting Li Zi is also known as Pepperweed/Tansymustard Seed. The acrid, bitter and cold herb has been used in TCM to treat whooping cough, pleurisy, idiopathic pneumothorax, pulmonary edema, ascites, acute nephritis, etc., by enhancing the functions of lung, heart, liver, stomach and bladder channels.
1. Phytotoxicity and antioxidant activity In the study to evaluate the possible in vitro phytotoxic effects of 27 flavonoids on the germination and early radical growth of Raphanus sativus L. and Lepidium sativum L., 2,2-Diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) test confirms the antioxidant activity of luteolin, quercetin, catechol, morin, and catechin. The biological activity recorded is discussed in relation to the structure of compounds and their capability to interact with cell structures and physiology. No correlation was found between phytotoxic and antioxidant activities(56).
2. Immunomodulatory activity
In the study to evaluate the immunomodulatory activity of protein extracts (PEs) of 14 Moroccan medicinal plants, found that the first group represented by Citrullus colocynthis, Urtica dioica, Elettaria cardamomum, Capparis spinosa and Piper cubeba showed a significant immunosuppressive activity. The second group that showed a significant immunostimulatory activity was represented by Aristolochia longa, Datura stramonium, Marrubium vulgare, Sinapis nigra, Delphynium staphysagria, Lepidium sativum, Ammi visnaga and Tetraclinis articulata(57).
3. Airways Disorders
in the study of Pharmacological Basis for the Medicinal Use of Lepidium sativum in Airways Disorders, indicated that bronchodilatory effect of Lepidium sativum is mediated through a combination of anticholinergic, Ca(++) antagonist and PDE inhibitory pathways, which provides sound mechanistic background for its medicinal use in the overactive airways disorders(58).
4. Antidiarrheal and antispasmodic activities
in the study to provide the pharmacological basis for the medicinal use of Lepidium sativum in diarrhea using in vivo and in vitro assays, found that Lepidium sativum seed extract possesses antidiarrheal and spasmolytic activities mediated possibly through dual blockade of muscarinic receptors and Ca(++) channels, though additional mechanism(s) cannot be ruled out and this study explains its medicinal use in diarrhea and abdominal cramps(59).
5. Side Effects
a. Do not use the herb in case of whooping cough and cough as a result of lung qi or spleen deficiency

The smoothie for prevention and treatment of Chronic Kidney disease, including Mesoamerican nephropathy
Yield: 2 servings (about 8 ounces each)
1/ 2 Brazil nut
1/2 olive
1/2 honey
1 cup water

1. Place all ingredients in a blender and puree about 1 minute
2. Blend on high speed about 1 minute or until the mixture is thick and the ice is well crushed.
3. Serve immediately

Mesoamerican nephropathy is a chronic kidney disease of unknown cause, emerging in the last decade in Central America, inducing chronic tubulointerstitial disease with associated secondary glomerulosclerosis and some signs of glomerular ischemia(9).

The finding of a natural source for treatment of  Mesoamerican nephropathy is a chronic kidney disease has been running into many obstacles, many ingredients showed initially with promising result in animal studies have not produced same potentials in large sample size and mutli centers human trials.

Chronic Kidney disease is defined as a condition of the progression loss of kidney function over period of many years. Stage of chronic kidney disease according to the National Kidney Foundation's Kidney Disease Outcomes Quality Initiative (KDOQ). According to the George Institute for Global
Health, The presence of antioxidant may induced some benefits, particularly in those on dialysis(1).
Dr. Zachara BA said, "Oxidative stress plays a key role in numerous disease processes including chronic kidney disease (CKD). In general, oxygen metabolism leads to the formation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) dangerous to cells"(2).

Selenium, found abundantly in Brazil nut, was effectively in ameliorated oxidative stress and inflammation in hemodialysis (HD) patients, after 12 months through attenuated 8-isoprostane, 8-OHdG, the free radicals and cytokines, increased and the activity of GPx and expressed selenium plasma levels(3).
According to the Federal University of Rio de Janeiro (UFRJ), hemodialysis (HD) patients may be benefits in consumption of Brazil nut  in 3 months as the study insisted that the procedure not only is effective against the inflammation, oxidative stress markers, and the atherogenic risk, but also improved the antioxidant defenses in HD patients(4).

Honey, the rich golden liquid is the miraculous product made by bees using nectar from flowers. It is considered as one of healthy sweet food for replacing the use of white sugar and artificial sweetener by many people. may also process the property as an antioxidant in reduced the expression of oxidative stress. According to the Universiti Sains Malaysia, "administered alone or in combination with conventional therapy, honey might be a novel antioxidant in the management of chronic diseases commonly associated with oxidative stress"(5).

Dr,. Johnson DW and colleagues suggested, honey may also be effective against antibiotic-resistant microorganisms induced hemodialysis catheters infection of HD patients, topically(6).

Omega 3 fatty acids found abundantly in olive may be used conjunction with a cholesterol-lowering medication atorvastatin for treatment of chronic kidney disease (CKD)(7).
treatment of omega-3 FA-supplemented group after 6 months expressed a clinical benefit of increased vitamin D, fetuin-A levels, and modified erythrocyte membrane FA contents in dialysis patients of that reduced risk complications of vascular calcification and cardiovascular disease.

In patient with Mesoamerican nephropathy, maintaining enough water intake to prevent heat stress, dehydration, biomarkers of renal function and their possible associations may reduced risk of decreased renal blood flow, high demands on tubular reabsorption, and increased levels of uric acid induced kidney damage in progression of kidney failure in sugarcane workers in Central America(9)(10)

The finding of the effectiveness of Brazil Nut, Olive and Honey may serve as cornerstones of pharmaceutical target for further studies as well as a potential medication for treatment of Chronic Kidney disease, including Mesoamerican nephropathy.

People who are at increased risk of Chronic Kidney disease, including Mesoamerican nephropathy, due to family history, obesity, diabetes,....should drink the juices at least one a day. People with Chronic Kidney disease, including Mesoamerican nephropathy. should drink the juice as much as as they can depending to digestive toleration.

                                          Respiratory Disease

Respiratory Disease is defined as medical conditions, affecting the breathing organ and tissues including Inflammatory lung disease, Obstructive lung diseases, Restrictive lung diseases, Respiratory tract infections, trachea, bronchi, bronchioles, alveoli, the nerves and muscles breathing , etc,.

                   Pleural disease: Pneumothorax

The pleura is a thin tissue covered by a layer of cells (mesothelial cells) that surrounds the lungs and lines the inside of the chest wall.
Pneumothorax is a condition of collection of air within the pleural cavity, from either the outside or from the lung of which affect the lung breathing.

                                                     Treatment

In conventional medicine perspective
A. Nonsurgical treatments
1. Obsercation
In most case, if the only a small portion of your lung is collapsed, the disease may be monitored with a series of X ray. Treatments only are necessary if the disease get worse. According to the study of St. Joseph’s Hospital & Medical Center of Sixteen trauma centers identified 588 OPTXs in 569 blunt trauma patients. One hundred twenty-one patients (21%) underwent immediate tube thoracostomy and 448 (79%), most blunt trauma patients with OPTX can be carefully monitored without tube thoracostomy; however, OPTX progression and respiratory distress are independently associated with observation failure(50).
2. Chest drain
In some cases, chest draining may be necessary, but adequate training for the insertion of chest drains in a trauma setting reduces the occurrence of procedure-related complications.According to the study by the Isala klinieken, locatie Sophia, afd. Heelkunde, Zwolle, for drainage of a traumatic pneumo- or haemothorax a large drain (28-36 French) is advised. The preferential insertion site is the 5th intercostal space in the midaxillary line. Drainage systems consist of a collection bottle, water seal and a suction control. Suction applied at 15-20 cm H2O is recommended for adequate drainage. Conversion to thoracotomy is determined by the drain production. Occult air leaks before removal of the drain can be detected by a temporary water seal or by clamping the drain followed by a chest X-ray(51).
3. Manual aspiration
In the study of 56 patients with baseline characteristics were similar, found that immediate success rates were 68.0% for Manual aspiration (MA) versus 80.6% for tube thoracostomy (TT) (p = 0.28). Two week success rates were 100% in both groups. There was a significant difference in hospital stay in favour of MA: 2.4 ± 2.6 versus 4.4 ± 3.3 days (p = 0.02). One year recurrence rates in MA were lower than in TT, although not statistically significant (4.0% and 12.9% p = 0.37). Predictors of immediate success were traumatic PTX and female sex. One patient died during follow-up due to heart failure. The study concluded that MA is simple, safe, cheap, minimal invasive in uncomplicated PSP/traumatic PTX with similar success and recurrence rates and a shorter hospital stay in comparison to TT and therefore the treatment of choice(52).
B. Surgery
1. Sealant
Pulmonary air leaks are common complications of lung resection and result in prolonged hospital stays and increased costs. In the study to investigate whether, compared with standard care, the use of a synthetic polyethylene glycol matrix (CoSeal®) could reduce air leaks detected by means of a digital chest drain system (DigiVent™), in patients undergoing lung resection (sutures and/or staples alone), showed that The use of CoSeal® may decrease the occurrence and severity of postoperative air leaks after lung resection and is associated with shorter hospital stay(53).
2. Thoracoscopy
In the study to review our experience of video-assisted thoracoscopic apical pleurectomy and to evaluate whether suction or water seal is superior in the postoperative treatment of primary spontaneous pneumothorax, indicated that Video-assisted thoracoscopic apical pleurectomy is effective and safe for treating primary spontaneous pneumothorax. Placing chest tubes on water seal after a brief period of suction shortens the duration of chest tube placement and hence the hospital stay(54)
2. Pleurodesis
is a surgical procedure in removing the entire pleural space and attaches the lung to the chest wall, permanently. In the study to compare the efficacy and safety between apical pleurectomy and pleural abrasion with minocycline in primary spontaneous pneumothorax (PSP) with high recurrence risk, showed that Pleural abrasion with minocycline pleurodesis is as effective as apical pleurectomy and either technique is appropriate for treating PSP patients with high recurrence risk. This trial was registered at http://www.clinicaltrials.gov (ID: NCT00270751)(55).

The Incredible and Effective smoothie for Reduced Risk of consequences of Atrophic Vaginitis  in Pregnancy
Yield: 2 servings (about 8 ounces each)
1 1/4  cup sweet potato
1/4 cup flax seed
1 cup green tea drink (Make from 4 grams of green tea, a slice of ginger and a cup of hot water lipped for 5 minutes, and let cool to room temperature)
1. Place all ingredients in a blender and puree about 1 minute
2. Blend on high speed about 1 minute or until the mixture is thick and the ice is well crushed.
3. Serve immediately

Atrophic Vaginitis is an inflammation of the vagina and the outer urinary tract due to decreased production of estrogen induced thinning and shrinking of the tissues, and decreased lubricationas a result of aging in women..

The finding of a natural source for reduced risk and treatment of Atrophic Vaginitis to replace the oral hormone replacement therapy (HRT), has been running into many obstacles, many ingredients showed initially with promising result in animal studies have not produced same potentials in either large sample size and mutli centers human trials.

Strong evidences of number of renowned institutions suggested that natural sources, including a gel, containing hyaluronic acid(1)(8), liposomes,phytoestrogens from Humulus lupulus extract, and Vitamin E, may be effective for treatment of Atrophic Vaginitis applied topically (1).

Dr.Sobenin IA and researcher at the Russian Cardiology Research and Production Complex, said, "Phytoestrogens are often considered as a possible alternative to hormone replacement therapy, since they are believed to alleviate some symptoms of menopause, such as, therosclerosis and atherosclerosis-related diseases through multiple mechanisms"(2).
In Fact, Phytoestrogens can play an important role in symptoms of menopause including fatigue, vigina dryness, insomnia, problems with concentrations and depression symptoms and on women organism during menopausal period(3).

Levels of serotonin found abundantly in flax seed, is associated to reduced risk, frequency and severity of vasomotor symptoms in menopausal women(4). According to the Massachusetts General Hospital, serotonin-norepinephrine reuptake inhibitor duloxetine significant improve depression, vasomotor symptoms, sleep, anxiety, and pain after 8 weeks(5).

Dr. Joffe H and the research team at the joint study lead Harvard Medical School, low-dose oral estradiol and venlafaxine(serotonin-norepinephrine reuptake inhibitor  are effective treatments for VMS in women during midlife(6).

Another selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor, escitalopram, also alleviated the frequency, severity, and bother of menopausal hot flashes in the study of 205 women (95 African American; 102 white; 8 other) between July 2009 and June 2010.(7).
Green tea contains more amount of antioxidants than any drinks or food with the same volume, and is the leaves of Camellia sinensis, undergone minimal oxidation during processing, originated from China. According to the joint study led by the Seton Hall University, theaflavin digallate isolated from green expressed anti viral activity against inflammation in stable at vaginal pH, and inhibited HSV-1 viral particles(9).
Its epigallocatechin gallate (EGCg) also enhanced the antifungal effect of amphotericin B or fluconazole against antimycotic-susceptible and -resistant C. albicans(10).

The effectiveness of Green Tea, Sweet Potato and Flax Seed may serve as cornerstones of pharmaceutical target for further studies in production of a potential medication for for Reduced Risk of Consequences of  Atrophic Vaginitis  with little or no adverse effects.

Intake of Smoothie of Pineapple, Banana and Asian ginseng (Panax ginseng) Herbal Tea may Reduced Risk and treatment of Atrophic Vaginitis due to aging
Life style and dietary patter change are recommended.

                                          Respiratory Disease

Respiratory Disease is defined as medical conditions, affecting the breathing organ and tissues including Inflammatory lung disease, Obstructive lung diseases, Restrictive lung diseases, Respiratory tract infections, trachea, bronchi, bronchioles, alveoli, the nerves and muscles breathing , etc,.

                   Pleural disease: Pneumothorax

The pleura is a thin tissue covered by a layer of cells (mesothelial cells) that surrounds the lungs and lines the inside of the chest wall.
Pneumothorax is a condition of collection of air within the pleural cavity, from either the outside or from the lung of which affect the lung breathing.

The Antioxidants 

According to the study by the Trakya University, patients with Pneumothorax are associated with oxidate stress as erythrocyte superoxide dismutase activity was found to be significantly lower and the plasma malondialdehyde levels were significantly high in patients with primary spontaneous pneumothorax (PSP)(47).
Other study indicated that the clinical manifestations in all forms of this pathology had poor symptoms. Complex therapy proved to be highly effective. It included use of corticosteroids, antioxidants and immunomodulators; massive exudative pleurisy was managed by pleural puncture and removal of exudate, .in the study of a total of 2775 respiratory sarcoidosis patients who were examined over the last ten years 278 (10%) had pleural affections: thickening of interlobular pleura and pleural deposits (98.2%), exudative pleurisy (1.1%) and spontaneous pneumothorax (0.7%)(48).
2. N-acetyl-L-cysteine (NAC)
Reactive free oxygen radicals are known to play an important role in the pathogenesis of various lung diseases. According to the study by the University Hospital Bergmannsheil, Ruhr-University, in the study to investigate of N-acetyl-L-cysteine (NAC) and ambroxol, its SH group, NAC scavenges H2O2 (hydrogen peroxide), .OH (hydroxol radical), and HOCl (hypochlorous acid). Furthermore, NAC can easily be deacetylated to cysteine, an important precursor of cellular glutathione synthesis, and thus stimulate the cellular glutathione system. This is most evident in pulmonary diseases characterized by low glutathione levels and high oxidant production by inflammatory cells (e.g. in IPF and ARDS). NAC is an effective drug in the treatment of paracetamol intoxication and may even be protective against side-effects of mutagenic agents. In addition NAC reduces cellular production of pro-inflammatory mediators (e.g. TNF-alpha, IL-1). Also, ambroxol [trans-4-(2-amino-3,5-dibromobenzylamino)-cyclohexane hydrochloride] scavenges oxidants (e.g. .OH, HOCl)(49)
