Abstract:

Obesity is an important disorders due to which 25 million deaths occur annually worldwide. Synthetic drugs for weight loss have low efficacy and high side effects. Apart from synthetic drugs in modern medicine, various other methods including the use of herbal medications are used to induce weight loss. Cambodia hoodia, green tea, Citrus aurantium, white beans, fenugreek, caffeine, ephedrine, capsaicin, yohimbine, chitosan, fitostreols, and guar gum have been studied in clinical trials and their effects have been confirmed. It seems necessary to study more to determine the effectiveness and safety of medicinal plants and herbal extracts as well as pharmaceutically active ingredients that may have the property of weight loss. In this article, we aimed to review recent knowledge about medicinal plants that are recommended for weight loss.

Abstract:

Nowadays, increases in resistance of tumors to the current therapeutic agents have become a problematic issue. Therefore, efforts to discover new anticancer compounds with high sensitivity of cancer cells are extending. Animal and laboratory researches have shown that exogenous antioxidants are able to help prevent the free radical damage associated with the development of cancer. However, researches in human beings have not demonstrated convincingly that taking antioxidants can reduce the risk of developing cancer. Angiogenesis is also a natural condition that controls the formation of new blood vessels from the available vessels. Today, it is believed that most of the cancers have angiogenesis potential and their growth, metastasis, and invasion depend on angiogenesis. Several compounds with plant origin and with anti-angiogenic properties have been identified. The aim of this study is to review recently published articles about anticancer drugs obtained from plants with antioxidant and anti-angiogenesis properties.

Abstract:

Alcoholism is a medical, social, and economic problem where treatment methods mostly include difficult and long-lasting psychotherapy and, in some cases, quite controversial pharmacological approaches. A number of medicinal plants and pure natural compounds are reported to have preventive and therapeutic effects on alcoholism and 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 of alcoholism or in decreasing alcohol consumption?

Abstract:

The fish disease significantly affects the aquaculture industry and causes economic harm. Antibiotics, chemotherapeutics and other synthetic pharmaceuticals are continuously used by farmers to mitigate infectious diseases. Phytotherapy without side effects is an eco-friendly, socio-economic and modern approach to mitigate disease. Toxicological and pharmacological studies are prerequisites for phytotherapy-related research and help to decide a safe dose for the main experiment and commercial aqua products. In toxicity studies, LD50 and LC50 are reliable and widely used acute toxicity parameters.

Abstract:

Background: Kidney stones are one of the oldest known and common diseases in the urinary tract with a prevalence that varies from 1% to 20%. Many phytotherapic and herbal medicines for kidney stones have been described for their treatment and prevention. Objective: The objective of this study is to perform a comprehensive review of several phytotherapic and herbal medicines published including clinical and animal studies. Results: Phytotherapy may influence the risk of recurrence in calcium oxalate and uric acid stones. The most solid evidence suggest that Phyllanthus niruri is one of the most studied components that appear to interfere with the calcium oxalate crystallization, reduced hyperoxaluria and hiperuricosuria and increased shock wave lithotripsy efficacy due to reduced crystallization without significant adverse effects, also Theobromine have shown to reduce the crystallization of uric acid in patients and appears to be a promising supplement to treat such stones. Conclusion: Many phytoterapic and herbal agents have been studies to treat and present urolithiasis, most of them only with studies of small number of patients or in animal models. Further randomized clinical trials are needed to evaluate the effect of these agents in kidney stones.

Abstract:

Herbal medicine is widely used as an integrative complementary treatment for common chronic diseases, yet potential risks include adverse effects and coprescription. Aim: This exploratory survey assessed Brazilian dentists’ knowledge, attitudes, and practices regarding phytotherapy. Materials and Method: This study used a consecutive sample of registered dentists who were active in clinical practice and attending advanced training for complex oral rehabilitation at a leading dental school in Latin America. Participants responded to a semi-structured 38-item instrument designed to collect data on sociodemographic, professional and health variables, and on their knowledge, use, prescription and opinions of phytotherapy. Quantitative data were analyzed with descriptive and inferential statistics. Qualitative data were described and analyzed with a thematic approach. Results: A total 53 dentists responded the survey (88.3% response rate). Six dentists reported formal education in phytotherapy and 33 had informal knowledge. Twenty-one dentists (39.6%) reported using herbal medicine, and 17 (32.1%) prescribed phytotherapy to their patients, mostly traditional medicinal plants. A logistic regression model showed that post-graduate degree and personal use of phytotherapy were associated with phytotherapy prescription. Opinions on how to improve the rational use of phytotherapy included the need for research evidence, specific academic education, and knowledge dissemination to clinicians. As a clinical recommendation, it was proposed that questions on herbal medicine should be asked during the dental patient’s anamnesis. Conclusions: Dentists with post-graduate degrees and personal use of phytotherapy prescribe herbal medicines for their patients in real-world clinics, regardless of formal education on the subject. Qualitative findings indicate the need to implement scientific initiatives.

Abstract:

Background: Phytotherapy is an important therapeutic option in functional gastrointestinal diseases (FGID). It has a large tradition, with different approaches in different regions of the world, some of which have made their way into modern evidence-based medicine (EBM). Summary: Taking into account the number of herbs in use, and also the cumulated scientific evidence on them, FGID are possibly the most important indication in phytotherapy. This does not only apply for European phytotherapy, but also for other regions, such as Asia. Within European phytotherapy, herbs active in FGID are usually classified according to their main active constituents and their activities. Typically, the herbs used in FGID are grouped into amara, aromatica, amara aromatica combining both properties, herbs stimulating gastric secretion, herbs containing spasmolytic and carminative essential oils or spasmolytic alkaloids, mucilaginosa soothing the mucosa, and flavonoid containing drugs with anti-inflammatory properties. In phytotherapy, different plants are frequently combined to maximize effectiveness and specificity of action. Very potent combination products can be developed when the mechanisms of action of the combination partners are complementary. This approach can be demonstrated by the example of STW 5. For this herbal combination product, therapeutic efficacy in FGID has been clinically proven according to the highest standards of EBM. This example also underlines that modern rational phytotherapy is definitely part of modern EBM. Key Messages: FGID is one of the most important indications in phytotherapy and rationally combined herbal preparations are established evidence-based therapeutic options.

Abstract:

Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is one of the most common malignant tumours and the second most frequent cause of cancer-related death worldwide. The aim of this review is to identify whether phytotherapy has an effect over the treatment of HCC or if it is suitable as a combination with chemotherapy. A systematic review was performed in order to offer current information over the use of phytotherapy in HCC. We conducted an electronic search of articles published in English in peer reviewed journals between 2012-2022. After keywords were associated, 302 articles were found. After the exclusion of articles which did not meet the inclusion criteria, there were 77 articles eligible for abstract evaluation. The following were discarded: two case report, one systematic review, 36 in vitro studies and nine studies which discussed other pathologies or with no regard to phytotherapy. The remaining articles encompassed 27 in vivo studies of phytotherapy in hepatocellular carcinoma and two randomized control trials. This selection process is illustrated in the Prisma Flow Diagram. Amongst the evaluated articles, two of them researched the effect of phytotherapy over human subjects in two randomized control trials, while the others illustrated the outcomes of phytotherapy over hepatocellular carcinoma cells and murine specimens. To sum up, phytotherapy has proven its usefulness in hepatocellular carcinoma, especially throughout the following mechanisms: anti-inflammatory effect, suppressing malignant cell proliferation, inhibiting angiogenesis, stimulating apoptosis, and even sensitizing cells to chemotherapy.

Abstract OBJECTIVE To evaluate the effect of Chinese phytotherapyto reduce stress levels, anxiety and improve quality of life. METHOD double-blind randomized controlled trial with 89 volunteers divided into three groups: control (no intervention), Placebo and Phytotherapy. The study was conducted in 2015 with healthy adults treated at the Integrated and Eastern Therapy Institute,in Sao Paulo, Brazil. Participants were evaluated at baseline and after three weeks with the Stress Symptoms List (SSL), Anxiety Inventory-Trait and State and SF12v2 for quality of life. Intervention groups received a placebo or Gan May Zao formula (GMDZ)flaskwith 50 ml. RESULTS According to ANOVA, there were significant differences (p = 0.025) after treatment of stress (SSL2). And the difference was between control and Phytotherapy groups, according to the Tukey post hoc (p = 0.022). There were no differences in the levels of state-anxiety and physical and mental domains in the SF12v2. CONCLUSION The GMDZ formula reduced stress levels, but more studies are needed with greater sample, with reassessment of dosage and a longer period of treatment to confirm and extend the results.

Abstract:

Dyspepsia, commonly known as indigestion, is delineated as suffering the manifestations of epigastric pain, nausea, burning, or after-meal fullness. The common therapy for dyspepsia, e.g., proton pump inhibitors or histamine-H2 receptor antagonists, has shown some adverse effects, thus, phytotherapy is currently becoming the drug of interest. Phytotherapy, additionally known as herbal medicine or botanical medicinal drug, includes the use of plant-derived compounds to prevent, alleviate, or therapy for diverse ailments. Most medications commonly used in Chinese traditional medicine or Asian folklore drugs contain mixtures of several plant extracts. Twelve clinical trials reported the effect and safety of phytotherapy on gastrointestinal disorders. Taken together, phytotherapy may be considered safe for the management of dyspepsia with close monitoring of the dose and duration of therapy.

Abstract:

Background: Acute uncomplicated cystitis in women is one of the most frequently diagnosed bacterial infections. Methods: In a pilot, open, noncomparative prospective study, 29 nonpregnant, sexually active women with acute uncomplicated cystitis were enrolled. The mean age was 28.9 ± 4.3, range 22–36 years. All patients received unique therapy: the nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) ketoprofen, 100 mg once a day for 5 days, and Canephron, 2 dragees three times a day for 1 month. Results: In 2 days, four patients (13.8%) had no tendency to improvement; they were considered as nonresponders and antibiotics were prescribed for them. The remaining 25 patients (86.2%) showed significant improvement and were considered as responders; they continued the therapy with ketoprofen and Canephron. In 7 days, 21 patients (72.4%) had no dysuria and leucocyturia; they were considered as fast responders to phytotherapy. In four patients (13.8%), after 7 days of therapy insignificant dysuria and leucocyturia were found; they were considered as slow responders to phytotherapy. All 25 patients continued the intake of Canephron for 1 month to prevent a relapse. When treatment finished, all patients were well. In 6 months, no relapses were diagnosed. Conclusion: The majority (86.2%) of young, nonpregnant women with acute uncomplicated cystitis were cured by 30 days of phytotherapy combined initially (5 days) with the NSAID ketoprofen; an antibiotic was indicated in only 13.8% of patients. Patients with acute uncomplicated cystitis may be divided into three subgroup: nonresponders to phytotherapy; slow responders to phytotherapy; fast responders to phytotherapy. Antibiotic therapy is indicated in nonresponders, but slow and fast responders may be treated without an antibiotic, by phytotherapy with an initial short course of an NSAID only.

Abstract:

Currently, the use of alternative medicine is necessary, even in animals. Our study focused on the valorisation of the use of herbal products in Algerian veterinary medicine. This study is based on a 6-month exploratory survey of 257 private practicing veterinarians, followed by a study of the bacteriological activity of the essential oil of the Pistacia lentiscus plant. The survey results generally indicate that private veterinarians support phytotherapy as an alternative to conventional drugs in several areas and species. Also, the results of research conducted on the antibacterial activity of Pistacia lentiscus essential oil show that it inactivates 50% of the bacterial strains. This confirms the well defined role of this medicinal plant used as an alternative in veterinary medicine.

Abstract:

Acute rhinitis and acute rhinosinusitis (ARS) have viral etiology in the most of cases, and their therapy is aimed at alleviating clinical symptoms and preventing new episodes. The indications for antibiotic therapy are severe bacterial ARS, ARS with complications, and recurrent bacterial ARS. Such a categorical approach is due to the increase of antibiotic resistance, which leads to the popularization of efficient phytotherapy. Modern herbal medical products comply with general recommendation and standards of efficacy, safety and quality, and their effectiveness has been proven in clinical trials along with synthetic drugs. In acute upper respiratory tract infections, herbal medical drugs stimulate the immune system, relieve clinical symptoms, and improve the patient’s quality of life. A significant emphasis in phytotherapy is given to complex drugs synthesized on the basis of phytoneering. One of such remedies is the herbal medicinal product containing the different parts of 5 medicinal herbs: Gentian root (Gentianae radix), Primrose flowers (with calyx) (Primulae flos (cum calycibus)), Common sorrel herb (Rumicis herba), Elder flowers (Sambuci flos) and Vervain herb (Verbenae herba). This herbal medicinal product shows secretolytic, secretomotor, antiinflammatory, antiviral and mild antibacterial farmacological effects. The article provides an analysis of studies in vitro and in vivo proving the anti-inflammatory effect of Sinupret®, its potentiating effect on nasal mucosa mucociliary transport as well as efficacy and safety in patients with rhinosinusitis.

Abstract:

Phytotherapy used in Romania for aphrodisiac purposes in men: The aphrodisiac virtues of humoral mediators derived from plants (phytotherapy) and used in Romania as pleasure stimulants have been known since antiquity, as substances that increase sexual performance and fertility. The human body, by its constitution, accepts and responds much better to phytotherapeutic products than to aphrodisiac medications, which are synthetic chemical products. The mentioned phytotherapeutic arsenal is found in the components of plants (seeds, roots, leaves) in the form of phytoandrogens. Phytotherapeutic remedies are, from a biochemical point of view, levorotatory isomeric molecules, their assimilation by the human body being direct, that is, it is achieved without additional metabolic effort. These remedies improve the quality of the male sexual act, by increasing the libido and stimulating the erection, due to their content in active principles, especially alkaloids and sexual hormones (Treaty of Clinical Sexology).

Abstract:

Anxiety is a psychic state of apprehension or fear brought about by the anticipation of an unpleasant or dangerous situation. Its characteristics are physical and mental, when it is in great intensity and intercurrence, is also called panic syndrome. Thus, the use of herbal medicines can be quite effective in anxiety, not causing adverse symptoms than expected, such as effects caused by conventional pharmacological treatments. In view of the above, the objective of this study will be the use of phototherapy in anxiety, using drugs with anxiolytic activities in the treatment of anxiety, which has been growing as an anxiety treatment in the last 5 years. This growth is due to low cost, being an effective therapeutic option and culturally appropriate, aiming to obtain safety in its use by the users of herbal medicine. Legislation was created in ANVISA, PNPIC, SUS and PNPMF that govern the matter, seeking the regulation of phototherapy, expanding access to herbal and phototherapeutic plants, guaranteeing safety and efficacy to SUS users.

Abstract:

OBJECTIVE To characterize the integration of phytotherapy in primary health care in Brazil. METHODS Journal articles and theses and dissertations were searched for in the following databases: SciELO, Lilacs, PubMed, Scopus, Web of Science and Theses Portal Capes, between January 1988 and March 2013. We analyzed 53 original studies on actions, programs, acceptance and use of phytotherapy and medicinal plants in the Brazilian Unified Health System. Bibliometric data, characteristics of the actions/programs, places and subjects involved and type and focus of the selected studies were analyzed. RESULTS Between 2003 and 2013, there was an increase in publications in different areas of knowledge, compared with the 1990-2002 period. The objectives and actions of programs involving the integration of phytotherapy into primary health care varied: including other treatment options, reduce costs, reviving traditional knowledge, preserving biodiversity, promoting social development and stimulating inter-sectorial actions. CONCLUSIONS Over the past 25 years, there was a small increase in scientific production on actions/programs developed in primary care. Including phytotherapy in primary care services encourages interaction between health care users and professionals. It also contributes to the socialization of scientific research and the development of a critical vision about the use of phytotherapy and plant medicine, not only on the part of professionals but also of the population.

Abstract:

Sports injuries, affecting both professional and amateur athletes, have a significant impact on performance, careers, and overall well-being. While conventional medical treatments play a crucial role in recovery, the interest in alternative therapies, particularly phytotherapy, is on the rise. Phytotherapy, also known as herbal or botanical medicine, harnesses the healing properties of plants and herbal remedies to address sports-related injuries. Its crucial to approach the efficacy and safety of phytotherapy with caution. An extensive literature review has unveiled an array of plants and herbal remedies, such as arnica, comfrey, turmeric, boswellia, rosemary, calendula, Witch Hazel, Cayenne, and Horsetail, with the potential to alleviate pain, reduce inflammation, and promote the healing process. While phytotherapy offers promise for sports injury management, further research and clinical trials are imperative to validate its efficacy and ensure athlete safety. The collaboration between traditional herbal medicine and modern sports injury management holds great potential for comprehensive athlete care.
