The pectin is among the most studied soluble dietary fiber with cholesterol lowering properties. The major difficulty in its use is the slow dissolution and the lumps formation when placed in water. The main objective of this research is through technological methods to achieve a more rapid and complete dissolution of high-esterified citrus pectin in water. The method used is wet granulation with different granulation liquids (sucrose solution, distilled water and water-ethanol mixtures) and the resulting variant granules are tested for particle size distribution, solubility and hydration rate. Granulation of high-methoxyl citrus pectin improves its dissolution in water in comparison with the powder pectin. Also, the hydration rate at the 300th s is greater than 90% with the granulated pectin and only 54% with non-granulated. Among the obtained five variants of granules, the best results are observed in the variant, granulated with 40% (v/v) ethanol. The analysis of the size and distribution of the particles reports the least scattering of the results during the variants granulated with 25% and 40% ethanol, which corresponds to the highest degree of uniformity of the granules.

Personal protection against mosquito bites is an efficient way of preventing mosquito borne diseases. Six plants namely Tagetus minuta L., Adansonia digitata Linn. , Ocimum suave, Plectranthus barbatus A., Azadirachta indica A. Juss. , Lantana camara L were identified for this study. They were formulated in petroleum jelly into formulations of 10% and 20%. When tested on human subjects, they exhibited mosquito repellency effect similar to or greater than N-diethyl-3-methylbenzamide (DEET) which is the normally accepted positive control. The knockdown effects of the formulations against the mosquitoes were similar or greater than citronella oil. The formulations can be used as alternatives to synthetic repellents which are mostly expensive for everyday use and toxic especially to children.

Several types of interventions in mental health have been implemented since the Psychiatric Reform to ensure assistance to the population affected by mental disorders. Psychiatric drugs and psychotropic agents are chemicals that act on the central nervous system and affect the mental and emotional functions of individuals. This study aimed to investigate the use of psychoactive substances of Ordinance 344/98 in the Psychiatric Emergency Service of the Hospital General Dr. Estevam Ponte (SEPHG). Research was conducted from January to March 2013. We analyzed the records of 30 admitted patients to SEPHG and their prescriptions. Of these, 20% of the patients came from the Center, 16.6% from Expectativa and 13.3% from Sinha Sabóia and Terrenos Novos, the remaining patients came from other districts of the city of Sobral. There was a higer higher prevalence of males (77%) who were administered psychotropic drugs. The prevalent age range was from 20 to 29 years, which corresponds to 33% in both sexes. The therapeutic classes that were dominant were typical antipsorics, such as haloperidol (96.6%) and benzodiazepines, such as diazepam (90%). There is concern with the use of psychotropic drugs and the need to implement services to ensure their rational use, preserving the health of the population and reducing public spending.

The purpose of the current research work was to explore anti-inflammatory activity of the extracts of Apismellifica L., Arnica montana L., Digitalis purpurea L., Sambucusnigra L., Thujaoccidentalis L., Urticaurens L. andArctostaphylosuva-ursi L. Anti-inflammatory activity was assessed by carrageenan induced paw edema method. A. mellifica (500mg/kg) inhibited 25.64% paw edema in 3.5 hours. Maximum paw inhibition 25.71% was observed in A. montana at the dose of 500 mg/kg at the end of 4.5 hours. D. purpurea (300 mg/kg) exhibited 28.57% carrageenan induced paw inhibition at 4.5 hours. S. nigra (500 mg/kg) revealed maximum paw inhibition 27.42% at 4.5 hours. T. occidentalis (500 mg/kg) exhibited 25.64% maximum paw inhibition in 3.5 hours. 30.76% paw inhibition was exhibited by U. urens (500 mg/kg) at 3.5 hours. A. uva-ursi (500mg/kg) showed maximum inhibition of paw edema (25.64%) in 3.5 hours. The standard drug, Aspirin exhibited maximum anti-inflammatory activity 22.22% at 1.5 hour. This research work has significance as it revealed dose and time dependent anti-inflammatory effect of seven crude extracts.

The risk-benefit balance of the full dose intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG) infusion of 2 g/kg body weight/dose in older children has not been established. In this study, I investigated the safety and efficacy of this therapy for older children. In total, I recruited 210 children who had received 2 g/kg/dose of IVIG therapy for Kawasaki disease between 1999 and 2015 at the Department of Pediatrics, Aomori Prefectural Central Hospital. The children were divided into two groups: an older group, comprising 18 children who were ≧ 72 months-old, and a younger group, comprising 192 children who were ≦ 71 months-old. The 18 children of the older group received a median IVIG dose of 50 g/dose (range, 36−105). None of the children had any major complications, including thrombosis. The prevalence of coronary artery lesions (CAL) before 30 days of illness was similar between the older and younger groups (1 / 18 vs. 9 / 192, P = 1.000). No older children had CAL after 30 days. An IVIG infusion of 2 g/kg/dose for older children with Kawasaki disease may be safe and effective for suppressing CAL caused by Kawasaki disease.

The need for self-reliance by developing countries in the prevailing global economic recession as it affects research and development, production, procurement, distribution and consumption of pharmaceuticals is reviewed in this paper. These hard economic realities and the widening economic parity between the high and low income countries have made the later solely dependent on the former for almost all of their pharmaceutical needs. As a result, most, if not all of the developing countries import their medicines from their developed counter-parts, mostly at prohibitive prices and in most cases without regard to the endemic disease conditions associated with such developing countries. Global statistics has revealed the continued growing economic importance of medicinal plants and plant-based pharmaceuticals which developing countries can harness to improve their pharmaceutical supplies that can impact positively on their healthcare delivery system. This is premised on the fact that most of these medicinal plants are abundantly indigenous in these developing countries that export them at very cheap rates to developed countries only to import pharmaceuticals made from them at very exorbitant prices that most often affect their foreign exchange. It is for these reasons and perhaps among others not mentioned, that this review suggests the need to intensify research into ethno-medicine as this can turn to address the current precarious supply and reduce the burden of import of essential medicines by the developing nations.

Managing cancer patients requires numerous drugs, such as chemotherapeutic agents and drugs for other chronic diseases. Thus, health teams must be aware of potential drug interactions that may be detrimental to health. This study analyzed the types of non-chemotherapeutic drugs used by cancer patients and screened patients undergoing cancer treatment for anxiety and depression. Methods: This cross-sectional study included 138 cancer patients receiving treatment at a reference center in Divinopolis, a city in the midwestern region of the state of Minas Gerais, from June to July 2014. Drug-related data were recorded in a form created by the authors, and the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS) was used for screening the patients for anxiety and depression. Results: Most patients (62.32%) were taking non-chemotherapeutic and chemotherapeutic agents. Eighty-nine types of drugs were reported. The most common drug classes were those that act on the cardiovascular and nervous systems, alimentary tract, and metabolism. Most patients were taking more than one drug, and 14 patients were taking 6 or more classes of drugs. The number of drug classes correlated with marital status and type of treatment. Anxiety and depression were found in 31.16% and 25.37% of the patients, respectively, and depression correlated with type of cancer (p< 0.048). Conclusion: The non-chemotherapeutic drugs taken by patients undergoing cancer treatment does not differ from those taken by the general population. Health professionals must bear in mind these patients' vulnerability to side effects and drug interactions, carefully assessing the risks and benefits of treatment and taking into account associated comorbidities, such as anxiety and depression.

Hypertension is one of the commonest leading causes to death with no one protected from developing it. It has many developing causes from idiopathic to stress and hyperlipidemia. 60.7% - 64.3% of hypertensive individuals were found to be hypercholesterolemic. From simply a faulty life style to a genetic cause of lipoprotein lipase mutation, dislipidemia develops and unfortunately patients remain unaware of their condition as it's asymptomatic so it's more likely to be discovered by chance. Lipid absorption start with solubilisation by different lipase enzymes and detergent such as bile acids then transported through blood stream by lipoproteins to be stored as esters in liver. These circulating lipids may form plaques on the vessels' lining along with other components threatening the lumen to be closed and stiff walled thus decreasing blood flow. Prevention and control of hyperlipidemia still remains to start with life style modifications. Like most disease, in recent years the consuming life style adapted affected our health aspect. With proper diet and physical exercise, patients improve their outcome with the medications aiding them in their long journey. But beware; controlling the lipid profile will not be complete without the control of the associated HTN due to their synergistic effect on cardio-vascular risk.
