Abstract

Thunbergia laurifolia Lindl. or Rang Chuet is a plant traditionally used in Thailand for the treatment oftoxicity and as an antidote for many poisons. This study aimed to investigate the effect of Rang Chuetcapsules on blood chemistry in 39 agricultural workers (21 males, 18 females) during an intensive 8-weekspraying program. The following tests were performed: serum butyrylcholinesterase (BChE) and serummalondialdehyde (MDA) levels before and after Rang Chuet capsule supplementation. The results indicatethat serum BChE levels were unchanged in male and female workers. However, the levels of serum MDAin male and female workers decreased significantly at p < 0.001 and p < 0.05, respectively. In this study, thephylogenetic relationships within the large tropical and subtropical family Thunbergia were studied usinggenomic DNA from the fresh leaves of sampled plants. The results showed 99% homology with Thunbergiacoccinea. This study indicates that Rang Chuet presents antioxidant activity and could be promoted as ahealth supplement.

Abstract

Osteoporosis is defined as “a skeletal disorder characterized by low bone mass and micro architecturaldeterioration of bone tissue leading to enhanced bone fragility, with consequent increase in fracture risk”. Anosteoporotic fracture is an outcome of trauma to bone of compromised strength, commonly first occurringin the vertebral bodies and distal radius, both sites composed predominantly of medullary (trabecular) bone.Osteoporosis is an extremely common disease affecting most women during their lifetime. Osteoporosisreduces bone density, affecting the bone mass and strength without altering the basic chemical composition.Declining estrogen levels during and after menopause lead to increase bone resorption and increased urinaryexcretion of calcium. Thus, estrogen deficiency plays a primary role in osteoporosis, accounting for up toone half of the bone lost during a women’s lifetime.Oral signs of osteoporosis might be manifested by excessive alveolar ridge resorption, tooth loss, chronicdestructive periodontal disease, referred maxillary sinus pain, or fracture.Radiographic evaluation of post-menopausal women and patients with advanced renal failure demonstratedthe loss of cortical bone at the mandible.The purpose of the study is to evaluate relationship between various oral signs the probability of thisrelationship excising in certain patients and to access cortical bone thickness measurements using panoramicradiographs.
