                                          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 Causes

1. Congestive heart failure
In the study to determine the distribution of pleural effusion between the right and left hemithorax in patients with uncomplicated congestive heart failure, and whether left-sided pleural effusion actually constitutes an atypical distribution in congestive heart failure, indicated that there were bilateral pleural effusions of roughly equal size on each side in 36, there were bilateral pleural effusions larger on the left side than the right in 26, and there were isolated left-sided pleural effusions in 15. The difference was not statistically significant (chi2 = 0.316; P < or = 1.0)(18).
2. Pneumonia
According to the Universidade Federal do Espírito Santo, Vitória, in a a retrospective observational study involving 121 patients with CAP/PPE hospitalized in a tertiary referral hospital between 2000 and 2008, the prevalence of M. pneumoniae-related CAP/PPE was 12.75%. Although the disease was milder than that caused by other microorganisms, its course was longer. Our data suggest that M. pneumoniae-related CAP and PPE in children and adolescents should be more thoroughly investigated in Brazil(19).
3. Liver disease (cirrhosis) and chronic renal disease
There is a report of a 59-year-old man treated with hemodialysis for liver cirhhosis and chronic kidney disease developed right pleural effusion and ascites, according to the study by Takasago Municipal Hospital(20).
4. Primary systemic amyloidosis
According to the study by the Boston University School of Medicine, large, recurrent pleural effusions in systemic amyloidoses are rare but clinically challenging events predominantly affecting patients with primary systemic amyloidosis(21).
5. Nephrotic syndrome
Nephrotic syndrome is a condition of kidney damage with symptoms of protein in the urine, low blood protein levels, high cholesterol levels, high triglyceride levels, etc. According to the study by the, The occurrence of the nephrotic syndrome during mycosis fungoide is very unusual, but there is a report of a rare case of mycosis fungoide revealed by hydrops related to nephrotic syndrom in a 37-year old male patient. He has been admitted to intensive care unit because of a breathing distress and a hydrophobs. Whole body computed tomography scan revealed bilateral axillary, cervical lymph nodes, tumoral infiltration of the subcutaneous tissue in the cervicothoracic and abdominal regions, multiples bilateral pulmonary metastasis, bilateral pleural effusion, and abdominal effusion; the kidneys were normal(22).
6. Surgery
There is a report of 2 cases with unusual "complications" after pacemaker implantation. One patient developed hemorrhagic pleural and 1 patient pericardial effusion. Both manifestations of hemorrhage were felt to be due to complications in relation to the pacemaker implantation(23).
7. Tumors
According to the study by the, Pneumothorax and pleural effusion can occur after radiofrequency (RF) ablation in patients with lung tumors(24).
8. Pulmonary embolism
There is a report of a case of hypertensive 58-year-old woman with hepatic nodules presented dyspnea and pleural effusion one week after an episode of pulmonary embolism(25).
9. Lupus
In the prospective study of 54 patients with pleural effusion (12 lupus pleuritis, seven parapneumonic effusion, 26 malignancy-associated pleural effusions, nine transudative effusions) was performed. ANA at a titer of ≥1, 160 were found in 11 of 12 lupus pleuritis samples, and in four of 42 pleural effusions from non-systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) patients. The pleural effusion ANA at a titer of ≥1, according to the study by Chiang Mai University(26).
10. Systemic diseases
Despite the low incidence (around 1%) of pleural effusions caused by systemic diseases, more often connective tissue diseases, such as rheumatoid arthritis or systemic lupus erythematosus, may present with this(27)
11. Infections
In the study to investigate whether pleural fluid concentrations of biomarkers for bacterial infection, namely triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells (sTREM-1), procalcitonin (PCT), lipopolysaccharide-binding protein (LBP) and C-reactive protein (CRP), might identify infectious effusions and discriminate between complicated (CPPEs) and uncomplicated parapneumonic effusions (UPPEs) with Stored pleural fluid samples from 308 patients with different causes of pleural effusion were used to measure the four biomarkers indicated that the area under the curve for distinguishing infectious (parapneumonics and tuberculosis) from noninfectious effusions was 0.87 for CRP, 0.86 for sTREM-1, 0.57 for PCT and 0.87 for LBP. Regarding the discrimination of nonpurulent CPPE versus UPPE, a multivariate analysis found that pleural fluid glucose or =17 microg x mL(-1) and CRP > or =80 mg x L(-1) were the best parameters. Individually, none of the new biomarkers achieved better performance characteristics than pH, glucose or lactate dehydrogenase in labelling CPPE(27a).

The smoothie for reduced risk and treatment of cervical myomas
Yield: 2 servings (about 8 ounces each)
1/2 cup peanut
1 orange
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. Add more green tea drink if needed
3. Serve immediately

The finding of a natural source for reduced risk and treatment of  cervical polyps to replace the conventional medicine 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.
Cervical myomas (3%-9% of all leiomyomas) are benign tumor arising from the lower uterine segment. The myoma may bleed, become infected, interfere with urinating, or cause pain during sexual intercourse. Surgery may be the best option but it also induced blood loss, and distortion of the anatomy of the vital neighboring structures in the pelvic cavity, if myomas are closer to other organs such as the bladder, ureter, and rectum(1).

Green tea has been a precious drink in traditional Chinese culture and used exceptional in socialization for more than 4000 thousand years. Due to its commercial values and health effects, green tea now has been cultivated all over the world in suitable climate. Its Epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG), the major catechin in green tea has shown to  to inhibit key pathways of tumor growth(2)
According to the Oncology and Radiobiology, NAS of Ukraine, polyphenol extracts from green tea, red wine lees and/or lemon peel alone used conjuction with antitumor drugs effectively ameliorated the growth of different transplanted tumors in animal model(3).

Resveratrol is a phytochemical in the class of Stilbenoids, found abundantly in  peanuts, also expressed strongly anti tumors effect in experimental animal(3). According to the The University of Tokyo, resveratrol (3, 5, 4'-trihydroxystilbene) is a phytoalexin contained in a variety of plants exhibited anti tuome effect through suppressed cell proliferation, induced apoptosis and suppressed the metastasis and cell invasion through suppress cell proliferation, induce apoptosis and suppress the metastasis and cell invasion through regulating cellular mechanisms(4), including cell cycle arrest and apoptosis in intestinal smooth muscle cells.(5).

Vitamin C, a water soluble vitamin, found abundantly in orange manifested anti tumor activities through expression of strongest activator of phagocytosis and antibody formation when used conjunction with glucan, resveratrol(6).
According to the Seoul National University College of Medicine, vitamin C also increases the susceptibility of tumor cells to anti-Fas Abs and the expression of Fas (CD95) and MHC class I on tumor cells, in dose-depend manner(7).

The effectiveness of  Green Tea, Orange and Peanut  may serve as cornerstones of pharmaceutical target for further studies in production of a potential medication for for Reduced Risk of Consequences of  Cervical myomas with little or no adverse effects.

Women who are at increased risk of . Otherwise, intake of Cervical myomas due to family history,..... should drink at least 1 serving daily. Women with Cervical myomas should drink as much as they can, depending to digestive toerlation.

Life style and dietary patter change are recommended.

The finding the natural ingredient for prevention and treatment of Toxic Hepatitis to replace the medication from conventional has been facing many obstacles. Many initially potentially therapeutic values working in animal studies does not produce the same effectiveness in human trials.

Recent studies suggested that grape(1) and turmeric(4) and peppermint(7) may have a potential effect on treatment of patient with Toxic Hepatitis .

Resveratrol is a phytochemical in the class of Stilbenoids, found abundantly in grape and blueberry associated to reduce risk and treatment of Toxic Hepatitis, according to the University of Rio Grande do Sul (PUCRS(1).In animal study, resveratrol effectively attenuated α-Naphthylisothiocyanate (ANIT) iinduced acute cholestasis and liver injury, through suppression of neutrophil infiltration induced by inflammation, as well as upregulation of expression of hepatic transporters and enzymes(2).
In acetaminophen-induced toxic liver, treatment with RES significantly induced SIRT1 (cell regulation)and then negatively regulated p53, antigne signaling to induce cell proliferation-associated proteins(3).

Turmeric is a perennial plant in the genus Curcuma, belongings to the family Zingiberaceae, native to tropical South Asia. Its antioxidant, curcumin exhibited liver protective effects(4)(5) through attenuated proinflammatory cytokines(5) and improved antioxidant enzymes status(4).
In rat study, RES exhibited anti D-GalN/LPS-induced liver damage by by the enhancing antioxidant defense system, attenuating mitochondrial dysfunction and inhibiting apoptosis, the joint study lead by the Nanjing Agricultural University suggested(6).
Dr. Bulku E and professors at the Manchester College School of Pharmacy, insisted the effectiveness of RES in protective against chemicals induced liver damage may be due its function in modulating multiple pro-apoptotic and anti-apoptotic signaling pathways(7).

Silymarin, a phytochemical in the class of phenolic acids, found abundantly in peppermint exhibited hepatoprotective effect against antituberculosis drug-induced liver injury, through promotion of superoxide dismutase restoration(8).
In isonicotinylhydrazine-induced hepatotoxicity in rabbit model, combined isoniazid and silymarin significantly improved serum billirubin and serum alanine transaminase(9).

Dr. Gillessen A and colleagues said, "Silymarin is a safe and efficacious treatment option for patients with elevated liver enzymes. A benefit in terms of liver-related symptoms as well as quality of life and performance was demonstrated already after 2 months of treatment."(10).

The effectiveness of Grape, Curcumin and Peppermint Tea may serve as cornerstones of pharmaceutical target for further studies in production of a potential medication for reduced risk, complications and treatment of Toxic Hepatitis with little or no adverse effects.

People who are at high risk of Toxic Hepatitis due to medication, environment factors, .... should drink at least one serving daily and women with Toxic Hepatitis should drink the smoothie as much as they can, depending to digestive toleration.

Life style and dietary pattern(reduced intake of  bad cholesterol)change are recommended.

The finding of a natural source for treatment of preeclampsia 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.
Preeclampsia is a condition in pregnancy with expression of high blood pressure, sometimes with fluid retention and proteinuria. According to the joint study led by Bharati Vidyapeeth University women with PE are associated to increase oxidative stress right from 16 to 20 weeks of gestation(1). Study suggested the implication of concentrations of increased free fatty acid (FFA), and decreased activity of antioxidant enzyme in placenta may contribute to oxidative damage levels(2) in placental mitochondria in women with PE)(3). Levels of vitamin C(orange) and E(Sweet Potato) were significantly negative for overall preeclampsia(4).

Dr. Basaran A and professors at the ACIBADEM Kayseri Hospital said, "supplementation of vitamins C and E(May be used) for the prevention of preeclampsia or other pregnancy induced hypertensive disorders"(5).

The effectiveness of Cooked Spinach, 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 Preeclampsia with little or no adverse effects.

                                          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.

                                                    Types of Pleural effusion 


Depending to fluid accumulations
B.1.1. Hydrothorax
Pleural effusion as a result of Serous fluid accumulation. In many case, it is a result of cirrhosis.
According to the study by the Harvard Medical School, patients with cirrhosis and portal hypertension often have abnormal extracellular fluid volume regulation, resulting in accumulation of fluid as ascites, oedema or pleural effusion. These complications carry a poor prognosis with nearly half of the patients with ascites dying in the ensuing 2-3 years(1).
Other cases may be result as a complicating peritoneal dialysis. According to the study by The Chinese University of Hong Kong, Hydrothorax complicating continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD) appears in approximately 2% of all patients(2).

B.1.2. Dyspnea
Pleural effusion as a result of blood accumulation within the pleural cavity. In most cases, it is a result from a injury to the thorax resulting to ruptured blood to spill into the pleural space. According to the study by the Medical Centre Alkmaar, haemothorax is a problem commonly encountered in medical practice and is most frequently related to open or closed chest trauma or to invasive procedures of the chest(3).There is a report of two cases where seemingly insignificant low-energy trauma precipitated massive haemothoraces in elderly patients with underlying osteoporosis, ultimately resulting in their immediate causes of death(4) and a case of haemothorax is described which occurred after the removal of a small pig-tail chest tube (8.5 F) that was inserted in the second intercostal space in the mid-clavicular line, for primary spontaneous pneumothorax management(5).

B.1.3. Chylothorax
Pleural effusion as a result of lymphatic fluid accumulation within the pleural cavity.
1. Chylothorax congenital
According to the study of University of Erlangen-Nuernberg, Chylothorax after surgery on congenital heart disease in newborns and infants may appear due to injury of the thoracic duct, due to venous or lymphatic congestion, central vein thrombosis, or diffuse injury of mediastinal lymphatic tissue in association with secondary chest closure(6). Other in the study of Chylothorax after congenital diaphragmatic hernia repair indicated that severity of preoperative cardiopulmonary derangement and not anatomical or technical factors predicts chylothorax occurrence after CDH repair(7).

2. Acquired chylothorax
a. Postoperative chylothorax
Chylothorax may also be a rare but severe complication of thoracic and esophageal surgery. At an early stage, chylothorax can lead to severe cardiorespiratory and volemic complications. In case of chronicization, malnutrition and immunologic complications can occur, responsible for a mortality rate of up to 50%(8).
b. Tumors
Chylothorax in paediatric age is a life-threatening clinical entity that cause serious respiratory, nutritional and immunologic complications. Chylothorax in the absence of trauma or tumour is uncommon and lymphangiomatosis of the bone, although extremely rare, has been associated with these condition, according to the study by Azienda ospedaliera-Università di Padova(9),

B.1.4. Pleural empyema (Pyothorax)
Pleural effusion as a result of accumulation of pus within the pleural cavity. According to the study by the Osaka University Graduate School of Medicine, Pyothorax-associated lymphoma (PAL) is a non-Hodgkin lymphoma of exclusively B-cell phenotype developing in the pleural cavity of patients after more than 20-year history of pyothorax resulting from an artificial pneumothorax for the treatment of pulmonary tuberculosis or tuberculous pleuritis.10). They also report a rare case of an 82-year-old woman with pain on the left side of the chest a PAL with dual genotype, i.e., simultaneous immunoglobin (Ig) and T-cell receptor (TcR) gene rearrangement(11).

The smoothie for reduced risk and treatment of hypothyroidism
Yield: 2 serving (about 8 ounce each)
1/2  cup avocado
1/2  cup carrot
1/ 1/2 cups of low fat cow milk

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 reduced risk and treatment of hypothyroidism has encountered many obstacles, many ingredients showed initially the promising result in animal studies have not produced same potentials in either large sample size and mutli centers human trials.

Scientists in some well known institutions may have found the therapeutic and potential ingredients from natural sources(Green tea and grape) for reduced risk and treatment of hypothyroidism.

Hypothyroidism is a condition of abnormal of thyroid function with under production of thyroid hormones, affecting the modulation of oxidative stress and antioxidant defense system, decreasing levels of vitamin E and increasing levels ROS of malondialdehyde and myeloperoxidase activities(1).
Vitamin E, a powerful free radical scavenger found abundantly in avocado may be potential for reduced risk and treatment of hypothyroidism through reduced hippocampus apoptosis by improving oxidative stress when use conjunction with Levothyroxine replacement therapy(2).

According to the Uludag University Medical Faculty, oral administration of vitamin E attenuated the expression of hypothyroidism accompanied with increased oxidative stress(3).
Dr. Subudhi U and Dr. Chainy GB. said, " Administration of vitamin E and curcumin enhanced mitochondrial GSH level; whereas the enhanced GSH level in PMF of hypothyroid rats was alleviated by vitamin E. Thus it can be concluded that besides the antioxidant role of vitamin E and curcumin, they also regulate hepatic antioxidant gene expression in hypothyroid rats"(4).

Vitamin A and its retinoid derivates found abundantly in carrot, is best known for its function in regulation of normal growth and development. According to the Tabriz University of Medical Sciences, oral administration of vitamin E supplement significantly ameliorated serum TSH concentrations and risk of subclinical hypothyroidism in pre menopausal women(5).
Dr. Zimmermann MB said, " Recent VA(Vitmin A) and iodine depletion studies in rats indicate moderate VAD alone has no measurable effect on the pituitary-thyroid axis; however, concurrent iodine deficiency (ID) and VAD produce more severe primary hypothyroidism than ID alone"(6).
Furthermore, in concurrent vitamin A (VA) deficiency (VAD), iodine deficiency (ID), vitamin A supplement(VAS), independent of iodine repletion, reduced thyroid hyperstimulation and size, mediated through the effects of VA on pituitary TSHbeta gene expression involved abnormally low levels of thyroid hormones(7).

Patients with hypothyroidism is associated to lower levels of serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D in comparison to health controls(8). and the increased levels of 25-hydroxyvitamin D in the hypothyroid patients contributed in the regulation of steroid hormone synthesis(9).

The smoothie of Sweet Potato, Carrot and Low Fat Cow Milk may hold a key for further studies in production of effective natural ingredients for prevention and treatment of hyperthyroidism in pregnancy without inducing adverse effects.

                                          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).
