Abstract:

A survey method was employed to investigate the perception of nurses in the eThekwini towards homeopathy.The aim of this study was to answer the following questions: What does the nursing community ineThekwini know of homeopathy? Does homeopathy have a role to play in a hospital setting in South Africa?The study population was all nurses with 5 years of experience or more working in hospitals in eThekwini region. The sample was drawn from 6 public and 5 private hospitals and included staff and professional nurses.
A total of 330 questionnaires were distributed and a total of 93 nurses (46.5%) responded from the public sector and 107 nurses (53.5%) from the private sector. The data was analyzed using descriptive statistics, frequency tables and bar charts. The Pearson’s Chi Square Tests was used on selected data. The majority of respondents (70.06%) perceived that homeopathy does have a role to play in a hospital setting. This indicates that many
respondents believe that integrated medicine is needed in a hospital setting in SA. The study reveals that the respondents had a positive view of homeopathy in general and were open to learning more about it and to cooperate with homeopaths. The finding that the knowledge of homeopathy is low can be addressed through publicity and education program.

Healthy female Swiss albino mice were divided into six groups containing 8 animals each. Herbadict tablet was suspended in 0.5% Carboxy Methyl Cellulose (CMC) and administered at two doses i.e., 30 mg/kg and 100 mg/kg body weight. Vehicle control, positive control and reference control (Silymarin) were used for comparison. Alcoholic intoxication was induced using ethanol. Treatment with Herbadict significantly (p<0.01) decreased SGOT, SGPT and -GT at 100 mg/kg when compared to the vehicle treated alcohol intoxicated group. A dose dependent significant decrease in total bilirubin was observed at 30 and 100 mg/kg of Herbadict when compared to vehicle treated alcohol intoxicated group. Treatment with Herbadict at 30 and 100 mg/kg p.o. showed hepatoprotective effect against alcohol induced damage in mice model.

Title: Demographic factors affecting quality of life among HIV-infected people attending a primary health clinic in South Africa: Future role of herbal/traditional medicines

Time : 11:30-12:00

Speaker
Biography:

Lucky Norah Katende-Kyenda has completed PhD from North West University, South Africa. He is currently working as a Lecturer in the Department of Pharmacology, Walter Sisulu University, South Africa. He has published 33 papers in reputed journals.
 

Abstract:

The study assessed Quality of Life (QoL) among HIV-infected patients and its association with demographic factors. A cross-sectional study was conducted on adult patients recruited from the clinic. The QoL was assessed using a WHOQOL-HIV-BREF. Demographic information was collected using a semi structured questionnaire. Data were analyzed using SPSS 22. Correlations and ANOVA were performed for determining significance differences between domain scores and QOL variables. Post-hoc analysis was performed using Tukey’s to find contributing pairs to the differences. Of ninety-nine participants interviewed, 52% were females and 48% males. The mean-age was 37.53±9.127 (range 18-60 years), 35 (36.1%) had secondarylevel of education, 38 (40%) singles, 40 (40.8%) permanently employed with 40, 40.8% earning more than R4000 monthly and (64; 65.3%) lived in rural areas, 94 (96.9%) had chronic-diseases and 45, 48.9% were asymptomatic. The overall mean-scores for health-related QOL were 41±11.9 for psychological, 68.9±17.0 for physical, 39.7±26.6 for social, 58.1±13.2 for environmental, 29.5±28.7 for personal/spiritual/religious and 54.0±20.9 for level of independence domains. Associations of statistical significance were found between the following domains and demographic factors: Physical and gender (p=0.008), psychological and marital status (p=0.040), psychological and employment status (p=0.090), social and employment status (p=0.008); level of independence and HIV serostatus (p=0.028), personal and chronic disease (p=0.075) and social and place of residence (p=0.030). Gender, marital and employment status, HIV serostatus, chronic diseases and place of residence significantly affect the QOL of PLWHIV. Therefore, a sustained effort towards improving the QOL remains the mainstay of dealing with PLHIV, second only to treatment. A dedicated effort by the government and the private sector to help the HIV affected individuals financially by various schemes would likely bear fruit results. And it is of paramount importance to look at the future role of herbal/traditional medicines in PLWHIV.
 

Carlos Alberto Baptista

Faculdades Integradas Espírita, Brazi

Title: Quantic frequency therapy

Time : 12:00-12:30

Speaker
Biography:

Carlos Alberto Baptista is Holistic Integrative Naturotherapist, Iridologist, Craniosacral Therapist, Specialist in Quantum Therapy of Frequencies and International Representative of the Faculdades Integradas Spiritist of Brazil .
 

Abstract:

Quantic frequency therapy is a vibrational therapy that acts with great efficiency both as a balancer of systems and organs as to kill bacteria, fungi and viruses. Frequencies in Hertz emitted by high-precision generators act directly on organs, cells, molecules, atoms and subatomic quantum particles, both to eliminate pathogens and to stimulate natural processes of self-healing. There are several ways the frequencies can be transmitted from the generator to the human body, including the emission of frequencies on DNA sample using the Quantum entanglement wave function concept. There is some confusion surrounding the term Holistic Therapist. It has been observed that this terminology is interpreted as the therapist who is present in several therapeutic modalities in the area of complementary therapy. In fact the holistic approach is given to the being in which therapy is being practiced with the Holistic concept. That is, this being is analyzed in a holistic way (as a whole) to help its conduction to physical, mental, emotional and spiritual well-being. For this, it is necessary to get as close as possible to the primary cause of the dysfunction felt through its symptoms. This is the holistic therapy that I practice: serving as a channel for self-healing through acting on the primary causes of imbalance.
 

Ehioriaze Sydney Okojie

Title: An approach to trauma resolution that works

Time : 12:30-13:00

Speaker
Biography:

Ehioriaze Sydney Okojie has obtained his MBBCh from Cairo University, Faculty of Medicine, Egypt and MSc in Clinical Tropical Medicine from London University School of Hygiene. He has worked as GP and managed health services in positions as Medical Manager and Director of a university health service.

Abstract:

There is an overwhelming impact of trauma on populations and individuals. Trauma survivors increase every day. The great ocean of trauma survivors is richly fed by the flow of domestic violence, rape, MVA’s, civil violence, natural disasters, terrorist activities, attacks on law enforcement agents (e.g., the police) post military combat experiences and more. This poses to the world an enormous public health problem. If professional health care givers are to give meaningful help they have to give treatment that works. The place of an approach to trauma treatment that really works therefore becomes singularly essential. Equipping ourselves with an effective approach is a good way to prepare ourselves for the task of helping trauma survivors. Such an approach should be available and easy to learn by those who provide care: e.g,. Doctors, GP’s, Psychologists, Psychiatrists, Nurses Counsellors/ Therapists who see trauma survivors in the course of their work. Arming these disciplines with an effective treatment puts us in a strong position to be of greater help and make a difference in the lives of trauma survivors. This presentation argues for the use of Human Givens approach. What does Human Givens approach do? Its advantages. Evidence of its  Effectiveness : Practice based and Research Findings. Discussion & Recommendations.

Abstract:

Globally for a long time, communicable diseases were the biggest killer diseases. But now, the trend is changing towards increased prevalence of chronic diseases with causative factors mostly related to diet and lifestyle. Among them, the Nidana (causative factors) of Amlapitta, a Gastrointestinal Tract (GIT) disorder, has acquired majority of the share with causative factors like improper diet and habits, stress, spicy irritant food, oily foods, bakery products, etc. The World Health Organization (WHO) has estimated that major percentage of the population in developing countries depends primarily upon herbal medicine for basic healthcare. In this rapidly growing civilization and multimedia technology, life becomes full of stress having more speed and accuracy is prime demands. So people neglect healthy food and are attracted towards the junk food. They are changing their diet pattern, life style and behavioral pattern. People are becoming more stressful with worry, tension and anxiety causing so many psychological disorders which hampers the digestion and is causing hyperacidity, gastritis, dyspepsia, peptic ulcer disorder and anorexia and all these pathological disorders are covered under the broad umbrella of Amlapitta in Ayurveda. Amalpitta is among the 80% of the top 10 life threatening disease of the world that are due to faults in dietary habits. In ayurveda sign and symptoms of Amalpitta mentioned by ayurveda stalwarts looks very similar to GERD and gastritis. In ayurvedic terminology, Agni (digestive fire) is considered as the protector of the human body while Ama (toxic) is the cause of disease. So, the main cause is the indiscretion in taking food which leads to three types of Doshic (physical energies Vata, Pitta, Kapha) imbalance and these Doshas are found in the Grahini (duodenum) which is considered as the seat of the digestive fire or Agni. It is also said that eating and fasting during indigestion leads to problems like acidity, heartburn, gastritis which is referred as Amalpitta. Ayurveda follows its own unique philosophy and methodologies to address issues of health care and prescribes variety of simple therapies as also certain complex treatments that could comprise of single ingredients, poly-ingredient formulations and combination of drugs, diet, lifestyle changes and therapies like massages, fomentation therapies, enemas and several other cleansing procedures as well. In this research we will find the role of various ayurvedic regimens in the management of Amalpitta and are ideally meant to be administered only after proper understanding of the ailment as per ayurvedic diagnostics or Nidan.

Abstract:

Many young men, women and even the elderly are addicted to Cannabis intake abuse despite its predictable toxicological consequences. In this study we studied the toxic effects of oral administration of methanol extract of Cannabis sativa seeds using total of forty male Wistar rats. Animals randomized were into five groups (n=8 rats) of approximately equal weight. Group-1 received 100 mg/kg of the of the extract, group-2 received 200 mg/kg of the extract, group-3 received 300 mg/kg dosage of the extract, group-4 received 2 ml of virgin olive oil (vehicle control) and group-5 received distilled water (normal control) for 14 days. The rationale behind the vehicle control group is to show that the vehicle did not have any extra cytological/histological effect. The proximate properties show: Moisture content (6.69±0.14%), protein content (19.10±0.01%), ash content (11.84±0.02%), fat (19.33±0.00%), crude fiber (18.87±0.00%), carbohydrate (43.04%), dry matter (80.91±0.14%) and oil absorption capacity (1.87±0.00%). The anti-nutrients were as follows: alkaloids (3.15±0.01 mg/100 g), flavonoids (2.82±0.01 mg/100 g), saponins (6.10±0.01%), tannins (2.14±0.01 mg/100 g), cyanogenic glycosides (0.10±0.01 mg/100 g) and phenols (0.27±0.01 mg/100 g). The mineral content of the sample were potassium (13.73±0.01 mg/100 g), phosphorus (10.00±0.02 mg/100 g), sodium (17.53±0.01 mg/100 g), calcium (14.65±0.01 mg/100 g), magnesium (09.67±0.01 mg/100 g), zinc (2.00±0.01 mg/100 g) and Iron (1.00±0.01 mg/100 g). Result for AST was significantly (p<0.05) higher in group-2 (57.00±13.00 IU/L) and group-3 (59.33±10.53 IU/L), when compared with the normal control group-5 (31.33±1.53 IU/L). Significantly (p<0.05) higher serum ALT was observed in treatment group-2 (50.00±12.52 IU/L) and group-3 (56.33±10.21 IU/L). The results for kidney function, shows significantly (p<0.05) higher serum urea concentration in group-3 (13.75±2.41 mg/dl) when compared with the normal control group (8.75±1.60 mg/dl). Serum creatinine concentration was significantly (p<0.05) higher in group-2 (2.25±1.18 mg/kg) and group-3 (2.38±1.57 mg/kg) when compared with the normal control group (1.09±0.13 mg/kg). Significantly (p<0.05) higher SOD values was obtained in group-3 (72.64±5.90 mg/kg) when compared with normal control group (19.62±4.26 mg/kg). There was no significant (p<0.05) difference in total serum protein concentration in all groups when compared with the normal control group. The histological result shows that the oral administration of Cannabis sativa induced pronounced inflammation of the hepatic and renal tissue in group-3 when compared with the normal control group. In conclusion, the study showed that oraladministration of Cannabis sativa caused dose dependent hepatorenal toxicity.
