Cirrhosis

Cirrhosis is defined as a condition of irreversible scarring liver as a result of liver tissue by fibrosis due to final phase of chronic liver diseases of that can lead to poor function of the liver and liver failure. According to the statistics, Number of discharges with chronic liver disease or cirrhosis as the first-listed diagnosis: 101,000 in 2009 and Deaths per 100,000 population: 10.3 in 2010(a). Hepatitis B infection cause of the disease is very prevalent in South-East Asia.

The Treatments

A. Treatments of cirrhosis depend not on the underline causes and stage of the diseases
A.1. Alcohol causes of cirrhosis
A.1.2. In conventional medicine perspective
If the the disease is caused by excessive alcohol drinking, patients will be asked to stop drinking. with help from the professional teams and certain medication. The long-term management of alcoholic liver disease stresses the following(67).
(1) Abstinence of alcohol (Grade 1A), with referral to an alcoholic rehabilitation program;
(2) Adequate nutritional support (Grade 1B), emphasizing multiple feedings and a referral to a nutritionist; (3) Routine screening in alcoholic cirrhosis to prevent complications;
(4) Timely referral to a liver transplant program for those with decompensatedcirrhosis;
(5) Avoid pharmacologic therapies, as these medications have shown no benefit.
But according to the study by the Catholic University of Rome, in the intervention to achieve alcohol abstinence represents the most effective treatment for alcohol-dependent patients with liver cirrhosis by investigating the effectiveness and safety of Baclofen, is a GABA(B) receptor agonist in achieving and maintainingalcohol abstinence in patients with liver cirrhosis, showed that baclofen is effective at promoting alcohol abstinence in alcohol-dependent patients with liver cirrhosis. The drug is well tolerated and could have an important role in treatment of these individuals(68).

A.1.2. In herbal medicine perspective
1. Kudzu (Pueraria lobata) and St. John's Wort
In the study to summarizes the findings of the effects on alcohol intake in alcohol-preferring rats of extracts or purified compounds from two of the most promisingherbs: kudzu (Pueraria lobata) and St. John's Wort (Hypericum perforatum), a symposium presented at the 2002 RSA meeting in San Francisco. found that
(1) Introduction to the symposium, by David Y. W. Lee and David H. Overstreet; (2) Effects of daidzin on alcohol intake-search for mechanisms of action, by Wing-Ming Keung; (3) Long-term suppressive effects of puerarin on alcohol drinking in rats, by David Overstreet and David Y. W. Lee; (4) St. John's Wort extract reduces alcohol intake in FH and P rats, by Amir Rezvani and David Overstreet; and (5) extracts reduce alcohol intake in Marchigian Sardinian alcohol-preferring rats, by Maurizio Massi(69).

2. Pueraria lobata, Tabernanthe iboga, Panax ginseng, Salvia miltiorrhiza and Hypericum perforatum
In the study to review the most relevant experimental data on the reducing effect of some medicinal herbs on voluntary alcohol intake in animal models ofalcoholism, showed that Pueraria lobata, Tabernanthe iboga, Panax ginseng, Salvia miltiorrhiza and Hypericum perforatum proved to be effective in decreasing alcohol consumption. Reduction of alcohol absorption from the gastrointestinal system appears to be a common feature among most of the above plants(70).

3. Other herbs
According to the study by, A number of medicinal plants and pure natural compounds are reported to have preventive and therapeutic effects on alcoholismand alcohol dependency, but their constituents, efficacy and mechanism of action are mostly unknown so far. Recently, kudzu [Pueraria lobata (Willd.) Ohwi], St. John's wort (Hypericum perforatum L.), danshen (Salvia miltiorrhiza Bge.), ginseng (Panax ginseng C.A. Mey.), Japanese raisin tree (Hovenia dulcis Thunb.), ibogaine (Tabernanthe iboga H. Bn.), evening primrose (Oenothera biennis L.), prickly pear fruit (Opuntia ficus indica (L.) Mill.), purple passionflower (Passiflora incarnata L.), thyme (Thymus vulgaris L.), fenugreek seed (Trigonella foenum-graecum L.), ginger (Zingiber officinale Roscoe) and many others drew the attention of researchers. Can, therefore, drugs of natural origin be helpful in the treatment ofalcoholism or in decreasing alcohol consumption?(71)

A.1.3. In TCM medicine perspective
Alcohol has long been used as a daily beverage in China and around the world. It is a medicinal substance with various biological activities. According to study by Peking University, in the summarized clinical and primary studies concerning various remedies of TCM for alcohol abuse, including herbal components (such as Kudzu/Pueraria Lobata, Pediculus melo, Hypericumpperforatum L.), decoctions and acupuncture(72).

Dietary Minerals Boron: The effects of Fertility

Dietary Minerals

Dietary Minerals are the group of minerals which is essential for our body to sustain normal functions and physical health.

Potassium

Boron, a vital trace mineral found abundantly in Almond, Red Apple, Apricots, Avocado, Banana, Red kidneyBeans, etc., is necessary for the normal growth and health of the body. Boric acid has antiseptic and antiviral activity. Its aqueous solutions have been used as mouth-washes, eye-drops, skin lotions and cosmetics.

The effects of Fertility

In the study to investigate the consequences of exposure to three levels of boric acid on male rats reproduction, fertility, and progeny outcome, with emphasis on testicular DNA level and quality, by Ain Shams University, showed that the impact of boric acid exposure at dose 250 mg on male rats fertility was translated into increases in pre-implantation loss with a resulting decrease in the number of live fetuses/ litter. In addition to the significant alteration of biochemical measurements, observed at dose 250 mg, administration of boric acid at 500 mg caused testicular atrophy, severe damage of spermatogenesis, spermiation failure and significant reduction of Mg and Zn testicular levels. None of the male rats, treated with 500 mg/kg bwt, could impregnate untreated females, suggesting the occurrence of definitive loss of fertility(5a).

b) Sepate uterus
Women who was born with sepate uterus and bicornate uterus may see their pregnancy end with premature birth of miscarriage because of little room for the fetus to grow.

c) Rokitansky syndrome
An inherit birth defect with a malformation of vagina and absence of uterus.

3. Sexual transmitted diseases
Gonorrhea is sexual transmitting disease caused by bacteria Neisseria gonococcus leading to infection and inflammation to the uterus and Fallopian tube in women and epididymitis in men resulting in tubal damage causing infertility and miscarriage.

4. Asherman's syndrome

Most Common Diseases of 50 Plus: Thyroid Disease : Euthyroid sick syndrome as a result of Sepsis - The Symptoms

Thyroid disease

Thyroid disease is defined as a condition of malfunction of thyroid. Hyperthyroidism is a condition in which the thyroid gland is over active and produces too much thyroid hormones.

Euthyroid sick syndrome as a result of Sepsis

Sepsis is defined as a condition caused by chemicals released into the bloodstream to fight the infection trigger inflammation throughout the body as a result of severe infection(a)(b). according to the study by the University of Utah, sepsis is the commonest cause of admission to medical ICUs across the world. Mortality from sepsis continues to be high. Besides shock and multi-organ dysfunction occurring following the intense inflammatory reaction to sepsis, complications arising from sepsis-related immunoparalysis contribute to the morbidity and mortality from sepsis(c).

The Symptoms

1. Chilly periphery, fever, jaundice, platelet and hemoglobin
I(n the study to o explore the risk factors, clinical symptoms, hematological parameters, causative pathogen and antibiotic susceptibility of neonatal sepsis in a Chinese NICU, found that the clinical symptoms or laboratory results such as chilly periphery, fever, jaundice, platelet and hemoglobin also had between-group differences. The most common responsible pathogenic bacteria species present in EOS group was Coagulase-negative Staphylococcus (CoNS)(1).

2. Abnormalities of blood pressure, respiration, temperature, and heart rate, and less well-known changes in heart rate variability
Early detection of late-onset neonatal sepsis, before the onset of obvious and potentially catastrophic clinical signs, is an important goal in neonatal medicine.Sepsis causes a well-known series of physiologic changes including abnormalities of blood pressure, respiration, temperature, and heart rate, and less well-known changes in heart rate variability, according to the University of Virginia(2).

3. Significantly decreased urine output but accumulative fluid balance had a weak correlation with delta sequential organ failure assessment score (r = 0.32, P = 0.001) and lung injury score (r = 0.13, P = 0.02) and negative correlation with PaO2/FIO2 ratio (r = -0.28, P = 0.001)(3).

4. Abrupt change in mental status, difficult breathing and abnormal blood circulation
Early recognition of sepsis and septic shock in children relies on obtaining an attentive clinical history, accurate vital signs, and a physical examination focused on mental status, work of breathing, and circulatory status, according to the study by the University of Colorado School of Medicine(4).
