Abstract:
Significant percentage of today’s knowledge of ancient Egyptian medicine has been acquired from papyri left behind from various periods of Egyptian history. The longest and the most comprehensive is the Ebers papyrus, kept in the University Museum of Leipzig, which was written more than-one thousand years before Hippocrates (c. 460–377 BC). One of the riddles among the prescriptions of the Ebers papyrus Eb20 has been used in order to remove the so called “wemyt” weremit from the abdomen with the help of a drink, which consists of “jnnk”, Conyza dioscoridis in milk or sweet beer. The authors assume that the disease could be an infection of Schistosoma haematobium and/or Schistosoma mansoni. Nowadays the tea of Conyza dioscoridis is widely used as an important part of the traditional medicine against rheumatism, intestinal distention and cramps as well as an antiperspirant, and for external application to heal the wounds. The authors’ intent is to interpret the efficacy of the above-mentioned ancient prescription with the help of modern medical and pharmaceutical knowledge. Orv. Hetil., 2015, 156(50), 2045–2051.

Abstract:
The first notes about gingival diseases were made around 1500 B.C. in Papyrus Ebers in Egypt and Mesopotamia. Ever since the importance of the supporting tissue of the teeth is exponentially increasing. Especially in implant dentistry, it is not just a matter of aesthetics but also plays a main role in functionality. The nomenclature and definitions of periodontal surgeries have enormously changed in the past decades. The aim of this article is to review the evolution of periodontal surgical procedures and the capital changes in the nomenclature.

Abstract:
Medicine in ancient Egypt was trying to restrain all malefic beings from the action and to preserve the well-being of the individual. Thus the initial statement that magic and science were one and only, a sole concept. Papyrus Edwin Smith mentioned diseases and surgery cases, 62 in total, fourteen with known treatments, and 48 without mentioning any treatment, maybe chronical diseases difficult to treat or even unknown diseases. At the same time as Papyrus Edwin Smith was bought in 1872 by Egyptologist George Ebers who gave it his name. It contains 877 medical treatises covering physical, mental and spiritual diseases. Papyrus Hearst Housed at the Bancroft Library, the University of California has eighteen pages, concentrating on the urinary tract treatments, blood, hair and snake and scorpion bites. Written in hieratic, its prescriptions go from a tooth that has fallen out to medicine to treat the lung and even human bites. Pigs and hippopotamus bites also. The nurse in Ancient Egypt could be female or male and was a highly respected medical professional although, as with midwives, there is no evidence of a school or professional training.

Abstract:
This dissertation focuses on pathogenic elements found in the Ebers papyrus: a series of prescriptions that are believed to be the remains of a “book of tumours” which deals with what appear to have been benign ganglionic masses, polyps, sebaceous cysts, varicose veins and aneurysms. Discussion of this Treatise on Tumours (paragraphs 857-877) includes the previous probable identification of a disease, the analysis carried out to date by several Egyptologists, and my own interpretation which combines the linguistic approach adopted by these scholars in the past, and the medical observations of scientists in more recent years: in total we have descriptions of neoplasias versus swellings. This work also includes some references to the plants mentioned as treatments for the illnesses described in the 21 paragraphs of the Papyrus’ last section on tumours (what it is now thought to be oncological concerns) taking into account the problem of translation, since some plants are still unidentified today.References are made to material evidence found in Egyptian mummies in several sites revealing the presence of a tumour, e.g. Brothwell, 1981, Strouhal, 1999, (Ruffer, 1914), Cockburn, 1998, 1980, (Spigelman, 1997), Van Hasselt, 1999, Estes, 1989, Capasso, 2005, Leslie and Levell, 2006, Halperin, 2004, Mark, 2006, and Nerlich and Zink, 2006.

Abstract:
The aim of this research was to assess the pharmaceutical and therapeutic merit of ancient Egyptian remedies, employing analytical and historical methods, to demonstrate that the Egyptians were practising a credible and reproducible form of pharmacy as early as the 16th century BCE, 1800 years before Galen, the acknowledged 'father of pharmacy'. The 1000 prescriptions in the medical papyri, which provide the literary research source, are renowned for their uncertainty in interpretation and translation of drugs. Consequently, although much has been published, the materia medica of ancient Egypt is questionable and the efficacy of prescriptions, uncertain. Verification of the drug substances was sought in archaeobotanical evidence to determine availability, dynastic prevalence and predominance at the time of the papyri. Attestation was sought in contemporary pharmacognosy of plants and their clinical application, to measure the medicinal uses in ancient Egypt. Efficacy was established by comparing the ancient remedies against modem pharmaceutical protocols including drug source, extraction, pharmacognosy, phytochemistry, pharmacology, formulation, preparation, dosing regime, administration and therapeutic activity. Most drug sources have been verified, some 25% were determined to be of improbable use, alternative drugs being proposed. Significantly, 50% of the drug sources used by the ancient Egyptians, remain in use today, albeit that many are now synthesised. The first scientific estimate of pharmaceutical merit demonstrates 64% of remedies in the medical papyri have therapeutic value in physiological or physical action, 3% are toxic, 1.5% subtherapeutic, 20% undetermined and the remainder, have no known therapeutic activity. It is concluded that the application of archaeobotany and pharmacognosy may assist the identification of plants once available to ancient Egyptian medicine and consequently to endorse the ancient texts. Furthermore, the efficacy, reproducibility and protocols used in the prescriptions, qualify the ancient Egyptians to be recognised as the progenitors of pharmacy practise.

Abstract:
Whereas infectious diseases are the scourge of developing countries, cancer is the most significant affliction in developed countries. At the beginning of 2005, the American Cancer Society announced that, for the first time, cancer had surpassed heart disease as the number one killer of Americans. Cancer, which is the uncontrollable multiplication of cells, has been in existence as long as animals have; evidence of cancers has been found in dinosaur bones. Cancers have also been found on mummies dating back 2,500 years. An operation to remove cancer was documented in the Ebers papyrus found in Egypt. In ancient times cancer was a relatively rare disease, because infectious diseases often made the life span so short that cancer had little chance to proliferate. Hippocrates (460–370 B.C.) coined the word cancer, which means “crab” in Greek. There are over 110 types of cancer, which can be divided into four categories depending on the tissue involved: carcinoma, lymphoma, leukemia, and sarcoma. Carcinomas are the most common, with 85–90% of all cancers falling into this category. Carcinomas are tumors that originate in epithelial tissue such as skin, breast, lung, prostate, stomach, colon, ovary, and so forth. Lymphomas are cancers of the lymphatic system. Leukemia is the cancer of the blood, bone marrow, and liver. Sarcomas, the rarest of all four types, are tumors arising from cells in connective tissue, bone, or muscle. It seems inconceivable that we had almost no clue about the origin of cancers up until the mid-1970s, despite the existence of cancer that predates human life. The debate raged on as to what caused cancer, with one camp believing that carcinogens (cancer-causing agents such as chemicals, X-ray, and ultraviolet light) were to blame, whereas the other thought that viruses were the culprits. The carcinogen theory took root first. As early as 1775, British doctor Percival Pott made the astute epidemiological observation that young English boys employed as chimney sweeps were more prone to develop scrotal skin cancers than their French counterparts. Further scrutiny revealed that the continental sweeps bathed more frequently after work, which prompted Pott to speculate that long exposure to coal tar caused skin cancer. In 1915, 140 years later, Katsusaburo Yamagiwa and Koichi Ichikawa confirmed Pott’s theory in an animal model.
