Effect of COVID-19 vaccination on menstrual cycle irregularities among females: A cross-sectional study in Pakistan.

This study was aimed to assess the type and severity of COVID vaccine-induced menstrual disorders and also to investigate the risk factors for menstrual changes following COVID-19 vaccination in Pakistani females. A cross-sectional survey-based study was conducted in females between 12 -70 years of age from February to July 2022. The survey was conducted via in-person interviews as well as via social media.

Attenuation of CFA-induced arthritis through regulation of inflammatory cytokines and antioxidant mechanisms by Solanum nigrum L. leaves extracts.

Solanum nigrum L. is a popular traditional medicine for various inflammatory conditions including rheumatism and joint pain. The current study aimed to evaluate the anti-arthritic mechanism of Solanum nigrum L.

Assessment of in vivo antiepileptic potential and phytochemical analysis of seed extracts.

, a member of Fabaceae family, has been a part of traditional medicine for various ailments such as Hypertension, Diabetes, and Cancer. This family of plants has been utilized for Anticonvulsant and Anxiolytic effects. The ongoing investigation is aimed to seek the antiepileptic potential of seed extracts in pentylenetetrazole-induced kindling mice.

Cassia absus-mediated upregulation of IL-4, IL-10 and downregulation of IL-1β, IL-6, TNF- α, NF-κB, IFN-γ in CFA-induced arthritis model.

Traditional use of Cassia absus as an anti-inflammatory in conjunctivitis and bronchitis is well reported. Owing to its anti-inflammatory potential, the current study appraised in vivo anti-arthritic activity of n-hexane and aqueous extracts of Cassia absus seeds (200 mg/kg) using Complete Freund's Adjuvant (CFA) rat model of arthritis. Changes in paw size (mm), joint diameter (mm), and pain response (sec) were recorded at the baseline and then after CFA induction at the interval of 4 days till the 28th day.

Anti-arthritic, anti-nociceptive and anti-inflammatory potential of Cassia absus: An ethanomedicinal plant of Febaceae family.

Medicinal plants are becoming popular choice for treatment of chronic disease conditions. Cassia absus plant parts have been traditionally used to treat inflammatory conditions. This study was designed for evaluating anti-arthritic, anti-nociceptive and anti-inflammatory potential of Cassia absus seeds.

Evaluation of the Anxiolytic and Anti-Epileptogenic Potential of Seed Using Pentylenetetrazol-Induced Kindling in Mice and Metabolic Profiling of Its Bioactive Extract.

This study aimed to assess the potential of (Asteraceae) seed -hexane, chloroform, methanol, and aqueous extracts as anticonvulsant, sedative, anticonvulsant and antiepileptic agents in Swiss albino mice. Different doses of each extract were evaluated for the anxiolytic potential using the hole-board, the elevated plus maze and the light/dark test. A phenobarbitone-induced sleep test was employed for the evaluation of sedative potential.
