In Ayurveda, all skin diseases can be included under the term Kustha. The word Kustha means which cause skin look ugly. The etiological factors of skin diseases can be classified as Aharaja(diet) , Viharaja(regimen), Kulaja(familial), Vyapanna ritu krita (abnormal seasonal variation), Sadvritta apalana(disobey the code of conduct) etc. Though all etiological factors contributes important role in the manifestation of Kustha but Aaharaja Nidan (dietetic cause) are more important among them. As Ayurveda emphasized Panchakarma therapy except Vasti (enema) is the first line of treatment to treat the skin diseases. Not only Panchakarma is curative but also it checks the further progression. It is proved that Panchakarma therapy is beneficial to maintain gut physiology. Many disorders of the alimentary tract have dermatologic manifestations. A thorough understanding of the cutaneous and gastrointestinal (GI) relationship can alert the astute clinician to occult disease within the GI tract and vice versa. This review attempts to assess dietary factors and their interaction in skin diseases and their potential benefits is reviled. 1. References 1. 1. Glynn Michael, Drake William, editors.

Dristi means vision .vision possible through the eyes , the windows to this beautiful world . Opthalmology has been now became so advance in technology that helps the doctors in good diagnosis and hence treatment .In ayurveda our ancient scientists had also so keen observation and experience that we can solely rely on their principles and and carry on forward to uplift the present science . Regarding drishtigata roga , in ayurveda there has been controversy in its terminologies and hence confusion regarding anatomy,etiology and pathogenesis of all ocular diseases mentioned in Ayurveda so here we are going through possible mechanics of drishtigata rogas that helps us in better understanding of the disease.basicaly the major etiology is nidan sevan ,indulgence in causative factors regarding particular diseases and hence creating the vicious cycle of disease pathology on going through its anatomical structures and each unit of that participate in its pathology .All this go through body channels and depending on cause may manifest s local or a part of eye disease or invoving whole structure of eye . 1.

Background: Nowadays, the sexual behavior of adolescents has became an apprehensive problem. As it happened toward the group of adolescents where affected by some factors like internal and external factors. This group of adolescents is incorporated in a kind of culture and art community, especially Jathilan culture, called Paguyuban Turonggo Wiro Budoyo (TWB) located at Wirobrajan Yogyakarta. Most of the members of Turonggo Wiro Budoyo community has done the sexual intercourse (68,08%) and some told that the external factors such as friends and media of pornography gave the big influence for them to be in a relationship. This research aimed to find out the overview of peers, the access of pornography and adolescents sexual behavior of Turonggo Wiro Budoyo (TWB). Methods: This is a descriptive-quantitative research and also supported by qualitative design. The writer used purposive sampling technique to take the data. The population of this research was the members of Paguyuban Seni Jathilan Turonggo Wiro Budoyo which is had 47 members as the sample. Conclusion: The overview of the peers of Paguyuban TWB members in influence the sexual behavior could be like imitated friend’s behavior or a sort of compulsion boost. Most of them got the pornography access from the internet and given also by their own friends. In addition, most of them counted as the active members in the community thathave done the sexual intercourse. Key-words: The Peers, Pornography Access, Adolescents Sexual Behavior. A. Background In Psychology terms, teenager has the same meaning with puberteit, adolescence, and youth (Hurlock, 2002). The puberty itself is a period between children and teenager period where in the teenager period they will get difficult to pass the next development periods. At that time, adolescents will also have the changing of the hormone system in their body. The stimulation of the hormone will cause the anxious feeling at the end of children periods, which is called sexual maturation. That maturation can be recognized by the menstruation for the girl and nocturnal orgasm for the boy (Santrock, 2002). The changes of adolescents will increase their desire for doing the sexual activities. They also will start to have a fair with their opposite gender, where they will curious about love, take and give, come to the serious relationship etc. Then, they will make a date with their partners, do skin-ship, hugging or even kissing which is these activities knew as the first step to satisfy their sexual desire. Other activities that also support them to distribute their sexual desire are like reading porn-magazine, watching porn-movie or having a sexual fantasy (Hurlock, 2002). Adolescents phase is a transition between children and adult phase. In this phase they will show their identity off. They also try to against their parents’ authority (Fulligni, 1993). Adolescence tends to be closer with their friends. Close-friend at the same age often becomes the person for asking and discussing problems, including their sexual problems. This condition makes them easily influenced by their close-friends in the terms of interests, attitude and behaviors. There is a relation between the sexual behavior of peers and adolescents;if more risky the sexual behavior of the peers so does with the adolescents (Linda, 2009). Based on the survey of Indonesia Health Demogrphy and Health – Adolescent Reproductive Health (SKRRI) 2012, the percentage of 20-24 years old of adolescents that discuss the problem of reproduction health with their friends is about 66,9% (with female friends) and about 6,2% (with male friends). The percentage of the adolescents in the age of 15-24 years old that make a date is higher in SDKI in 2012 that also can be compare with Components of Adolescent Reproductive Health (KKRR) in 2007 which is has 85% and 72% for male, 85% and 77% for female. In the other hand, the percentage of the perception that a woman should take care of their virginity is decline in 2007. Whereas the percentage of activities when the adolescents are going out for a date such as skin-ship (80% for male and 72% for female), kissing (48% for male and 30% for female), groping the sensitive part (30% for male and 6% for female), and sexual intercourse before married is about 83,7%. From the survey, they respondents agree to do that because they love each other as the reason. The survey of sexual behavior of premarital from some universities in Semarang toward 500 respondents from 1000 college students which got the result about the activities when a couple going for a date is not only do chit-chat, hugging or kissing but already come into petting (25%). Moreover, 7,6% of them already done sexual intercourse (Pilar-PKBI, 2002) One of the districts of Yogyakarta municipality, Wirobrajan district, has an art and cultureJathilan community of adolescents called Turonggo Wiro Budoyo. As the writer has explained in this research introduction, from the result of interview on April 2015 with the Leader of community, which most of his members do promiscuity like just going on a date until doing free-sex. Some of them already got the impact of this promiscuity like got pregnant and early-age marriage. The Leader of this community also stated that this situation caused of their relationship behavior where they imitate their friend’s behavior in making love and access the porn site. Based on the explanation above the writer interested to analyze about the specific detail and information related to the adolescents life or the social units in public. Then the writer decided to conduct a research entitled “The Overview of Peers, the Access to Pornography, the Sexual Behavior Toward The Group of Adolescents of Paguyuban Seni Jathilan TWB Yogyakarta”. This research aimed to find out the overview of peers, the access of pornography and adolescents sexual behavior of Turonggo Wiro Budoyo (TWB). Reference 1. Azinar, Muhammad. 2013.

The present paper intensively worked to recognize the correct botanical identities (most probable) of plants quoted only in Sanskrit names for the treatment of Yakrutudara, Kumbha-kāmalā, Halimak and Rakta-pitta Cikitsā (collectively grouped under Liver Cirrhosis stages) in the great Āyurvedic treatise, theCharaka-sam̟hita̅ also spelt as Caraka-sam̟hita̅.The botanical identification of medicinal plants mentioned in the Sanskrit texts is not unanimous because of differential interpretation of the synonyms and also for the scribal variations found in the multiple sources of the texts. The use of different plant species for the same plant drug recipe of the text by manufacturers and practitioners has limited confirmatory clinical outcomes. The coordinated attempt to study the Chapters of the texts with review of Sanskrit-botanical literature here, enlisted correct identities of 160 plant species belonging to 70 angiosperm families. The text has actually quoted a total of 195 Sanskrit named plants with the synonyms. It has been further found by a survey that 70 percent of these Sanskrit named plant parts are used by Āyurvedic practitioners to treat the patients identified with Liver-Cirrhosis symptoms. The present data will certainly aid the drug manufacturers and practitioners to use botanically correct plant species that could enhance the efficacy of the drugs. REFERANCES 1.

Gumtone™(Acacia arabica), a polyherbal gel, has found to be effective as an antiplaque and antibacterial agent for gingivitis however its effect against periodontal pathogens is not known which causes periodontal diseases. The study was conducted to determine the antimicrobial activity of Gumtone™(Acacia arabica) against the periodontal pathogens. The inhibitory effect and the time-kill curve of Acacia Arabica gel (Gumtone™)on Aggregatib -acteractinomycetemcomitans (Aa), Porphyromonasgingivalis(Pg) and Prevotellainter media (Pi) was evaluated. The inhibitory and growth time kill curve were determined using serial dilution methods at 0, 2, 4, 6 and 24hrs.The Gumtone™ showed bacteriostatic and bactericidal activity against the Aaand Pg with minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) at 0.8 µl/ml, 0.4µl/ml respectively, better bactericidal against Pg.The study shows that Gumtone™has antimicrobial activity against periodontal pathogens like P. gingivalis, A. actinomycetemcomitans,and this raises the possibility that Gumtone™may have therapeutic use for periodontitis in clinical practice.

Among the various medical complications, neuropathic pain has emerged as the one with the most dreadful and griming which grounds serious threatening conditions by causing severe damage to the blood vessels. This damage is owed to the various alterations caused in the blood capillaries, which supply blood to the various body parts and results in the morbidity and eventually mortality. It being one of the most prevalent disorders and incurs a compelling need for its prevention and cure or treatment (Carisoprodol). This review is aimed at giving an account of the various herbal plants which have till now shown successful results in their employment as a possible treatment of neuropathic pain. Some more studies need to be done for their validation so that they can not only actively substitute or be used in conjunction with the present options of treatment in order to give best results which can prevent or cure this disorder effectively but also restore the damage done to the neuropathic patient.
