Journal Title: Scholars Journal of Applied Medical Sciences - Year 2015, Vol 3, Issue 1
Abstract
Anemias have got a very high prevalence rate in the world over and in spite of the massive efforts of the modern medical science; a good control has not been achieved. Recent studies have shown the involvement of other factors too in the pathogenesis, besides the causes established till date. Such new associations are reflecting the need to study the association of other unexplored factors also in anemia and incorporate them in the treatment module to combat anemias more successfully. Some hints about these aetiological factors can be obtained from the study of Pandu roga of Ayurveda, as these two diseases bear great resemblance clinically and in treatment. This study aimed to explore the association of the aetiological factors of Pandu roga in the patients of various anemias. The study revealed significant association for the aetiological factors of Pandu roga in anaemic patients and demonstrated that the consideration and avoidance of these aetiological factors also needs to be done along with the treatment module to combat anemias still more effectively.
