A Prospective, Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled Clinical Study to Evaluate the Effects of KSM-66 Ashwagandha capsule (300 mg) on Skin and Hair Health in Healthy Men and Women

Dr. Sharmila Pati

The traditional medicinal systems have used herbal therapies to treat hair and skin conditions since ancient time. Multiple studies have discovered anti-inflammatory and wound healing activities in substances extracted from plants. More than a thousand plant species have been studied for their benefit in hair care including Ashwagandha plant. The roots of the Ashwagandha plant are also known to be beneficial in treating ulcers, leucoderma and scabies, they have also been applied topically to heal skin sores and reduce swelling.

In Ayurvedic classics, Ashwagandha is indicated for Murchha (syncope), Apasmara (epilepsy), Shosha (cachexia), Unmada (mania/psychosis) including skin conditions like Pramehapidika (diabetic carbuncle), Kushtha (diseases of skin), Kilasa (vitiligo). In addition, Ashwagandha, in the form of a paste of boiled leaves and roots, is considered to have wound-healing abilities in Ayurveda.

Although there is scientific evidence available for use of Ashwagandha in skin and hair health, further exploration of its root extract via robust randomized clinical trials is required. In this present study we plan to evaluate and compare efficacy of Ashwagandha oral formulation with an identical placebo.

Effect of Anti-tubercular Therapy on Gut Microbiota

Dr. VK Sashindran

Anti-tubercular therapy (ATT) is a combination drug therapy of potent antimicrobials acting by different mechanisms and being exhibited for a prolonged duration to effect TB cure. Typically, therapy is given for 6 -9 months depending on the clinical scenario. The effect of such prolonged exposure to antimicrobials on gut microbiota is not known. The quantum of change and the reversibility of change are not known.

This study assesses the gut microbiota of tuberculosis patients hailing from a similar socioeconomic status and with similar dietary habits before starting ATT. We also plan to assess changes in gut microbiota of the cohort after completion of the intensive phase of treatment and at the end of ATT, and check for regeneration of original microbial flora after 6 m of completion of ATT.

Changes in gut microbiota can trigger low-grade gut immune activation. Immune activation at gut level is known to trigger inflammation. This study will act as a preliminary study to test the hypothesis of irreversible gut microbial change caused by ATT. It will serve as the basis of further studies on inflammation and utility of probiotics to mitigate the gut microbial change.

A Randomized, Placebo-controlled, Double-blind Crossover Study to Evaluate Efficacy of EnXtra on Accuracy & Reaction Time, Perceived Alertness & Digital Fatigue for Video Gamers

Dr. Deepak Langade

Video gaming is one of the most popular contemporary recreational activities as it has shown several benefits for human health. It is also emerging as an area of research focusing on how they impact the cognitive processes. Playing video games requires rapid processing of sensory information and prompt action, forcing players to make decisions and execute responses at a far greater pace than is typical in everyday life. Therefore, reaction time to an external stimulus is a significant criterion to assess cognitive abilities.However, it remains unknown whether any reduction or moderation in reaction time (RT) really generalizes to tasks beyond video-game playing and, if it does, whether it makes gamers more impulsive and prone to making error. Many botanical ingredients, such as eleuthero, gingko, ginseng, rosemary, peppermint,oats, and basil, are traditionally reported to improve cognitive performance. One such ingredient namely, Alpinia galanga (Thai ginger) has been reported to improve cognitive Sr Study Investigators Details Remarks Background Image properties in preclinical studies. A galanga is generally used as a culinary spice. Also, its traditional use is well documented for the treatment of various diseases due to its anti-inflammatory, analgesic, hypoglycemic, anti-allergic, antimicrobial, gastroprotective, antioxidant, antiplatelet, anticancer, immune-stimulatory, and cholesterol reducing effects.Although A galanga has been reported to improve cognitive performance in animals, it has not been thoroughly studied for its potential psychostimulant effect in humans.This randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blind crossover study will assess the efficacy of A galanga extract (EnXtra) on accuracy & reaction time, perceived alertness & digital fatigue for video gamers

Evaluation of Ashwagandha (Withania Somnifera) Standardized Extract for its effect on quality of life (QoL) in patients during post-COVID19 period: A Prospective, Randomized, Placebo-Controlled Study

Dr. Abhay Uppe / Dr. Girija Nair

Many patients develop post-COVID19 clinical sequelae after resolution of the acute infection like severe weakness and psychological problems adding a huge burden on the healthcare infrastructure, worsened Quality of Life(QoL) and increase the morbidity and mortality. Ashwagandha extract is an adaptogen that could be a potential indigenous remedy to improve QoL and help in faster post-COVID19 recovery. This therapy has not been reported since the pandemic started. 

Adaptogens are herbs have stress-protective effect and help the body adapt by normalizing physiological processes as it acts on the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis and also controls mediators accountable for stress response. Ashwagandha (Withania somnifera (L.) Dunal) is a member of Solanaceae family of plants known for eradicating fatigue, maintaining general well-being and improving vitality. Pharmacological studies have confirmed that Ashwagandha is a multipurpose herb and has multiple benefits including anti-inflammatory, neuroprotective, adaptogenic, memory-enhancing,

hematopoietic, anxiolytic properties. It has been reported to improve quality of life in various conditions

Effectiveness of home-based cardiac tele-rehabilitation delivered via smartphone application and smart wearables among elderly patients with cardiac disease in India; a single- blind randomized controlled tria

Dr. VK Sashindran

According to the National Statistical Office (NSO)’s Elderly in India 2021, India’s elderly population (aged 60 and above) is projected to touch 194 million in 2031, up from 138 million in 2021, a 41% increase over a decade. CVD is the leading cause of mortality in
India.

Elderly patients hospitalized with an acute cardiac event have higher rates of physical frailty, poor quality of life, delayed recovery & frequent rehospitalisation. Cardiac Rehabilitation (CR) is an evidence-based interventional program that includes behavioural
modification with patient education, exercise training, medication adherence and regular counselling to improve secondary outcomes in older persons with cardiovascular disease.However, the participation rate in CR programs is reportedly low globally & particularly in a country like India due to barriers in access to the CR centre.

Elderly patients from disadvantaged sections of the society in India face several financial and non-financial hurdles to continuing participation in hospital-based rehabilitation programs. Hence, there is a growing need to incorporate a home-based, supervised tele-rehabilitation program to improve participation among elderly in India.

This study will address this issue and provide strategy and measures to improvemonitoring of elderly patients.

Short- and long-term effects of Tuberculosis chemoprophylaxis with Isoniazid on gut microbiome and cellular immunity in children with latent tuberculosis infection

Dr. Nikhil Sarangdhar / Dr. VK Sashindran

Global prevalence of Latent TB infection (LTBI) is nearly 33% with a 5–10% lifetime risk of reactivation of TB. It has been observed that if LTBI remains untreated in children, there is a high chance of them developing active disease.

TB chemoprophylaxis by Isoniazid is recommended in patients of LTBI to prevent progression to active disease. But it also affects the gut microbiome by elimination of specific bacterial populations leading to suppression of cell-mediated immunity. These
effects are still unclear.

This study, the first of its kind globally, aims to document the Short- and long-term effects of Isoniazid chemoprophylaxis on the gut microbiome along with direct as well as indirect changes in cellular immunity in children with LTBI. It will also provide insight into efficacy of chemoprophylaxis in LTBI and its long-term implications.

Cardioprotective Role of HIF-1α In Congenital Heart Diseas

Dr. Priyanka Mirdha / Dr. VK Sashindran

Children born with heart conditions often suffer from a decrease in oxygen levels in the blood. This is a consequence of the right to left shunt present in the heart that also might alter the level of HIF-1alpha.

The levels of HIF-1Alpha might also change after corrective measures are applied clinically. However, the exact role and change in levels of HIF-1Alpha in pre-and post-treatment with such cardiac conditions still remain unclear.This study is being done in collaboration with Sri Sathya Sai Sanjeevani Hospital, Kharghar, Navi Mumbai.

The primary aim of the study is to determine the levels of HIF-1Alpha in patients with congenital heart disease before and after the corrective measures. This will help us understand the various parameters responsible for the change in the levels of HIF-1Alpha.With this study, we also would try to understand the role of HIF-1Alpha and other associated factors in patient outcome post corrective measures and determine its prognostic value.

Effect of commonly used psychotropic drugs on the gut- brain axis in Sprague-Dawley rats

Dr. Deepak Langade / Dr. Azra Naseem

The gut-brain axis is a bidirectional pathway wherein there is an influence of the gut microbiome on the neurotransmitters in the brain and vice versa. This can alter appetite,cognition, and emotions, along with contributing to or preventing psychiatric disorders like depression or schizophrenia. Drugs leading to an increase or decrease in the gut microbiome can alter the levels of the brain neurotransmitters that can have an impact on the treatment outcome of psychiatric disorders.

The primary aim of this study is to check the effect of anti-psychotic and anti-depressants drugs on the composition of gut microbes and also check the subsequent change in the brain neurotransmitter levels. The gut microbiome in rats is very similar to humans making this an appropriate model to check the impact of psychotropic drugs on the gut-brain axis.This study will act as a guide to further plan studies on humans that would help clinicians modulate the treatment of psychiatric disorders for optimal clinical response.

Correlation Of Induced Sputum Eosinophil Counts With Fractional Concentration Of Exhaled Nitric Oxide (FENO) And Lung Function In Patients With Asthma

Dr. Shahid Patel / Dr. Girija Nair

Asthma is defined by respiratory symptoms like wheeze, shortness of breath, chest tightness and cough that vary over time and in intensity, together with variable expiratory airflow limitation. As most of the lung function tests remain normal in a stable patient,
asthma remains a clinical diagnosis depending on the physician. Fractional concentration of exhaled nitric oxide (FENO) is a novel non-invasive modality that detects and quantifies airway inflammation thereby assisting the physician in making a diagnosis of asthma with a high level of confidence. FENO contributes to the diagnosis of asthma in several ways including assessing the cause of respiratory symptoms, potential response to anti-inflammatory drugs, and guiding changes to the dose of steroids.

With this rationale, we would be conducting this study to find the baseline eosinophils count in induced sputum, pulmonary function, and FENO in asthma patients and to study the change in the above parameters after 3 months and 6 months of taking drugs for
asthma

DNA methylation patterns in obese adults

Dr. Mumtaz Sharif

Obesity is a major threat to life expectancy and quality of life for both the current and future generations. Obesity increases the risk of comorbidities like diabetes, cardiovascular disease, and cancer leading to more financial burden as well. Genetic predisposition has been demonstrated to have a substantial role in obesity, however, these genetic variations do not explain the massive growth in obesity over the last few decades more so in covid times. Evidence suggests that modern lifestyle, high intake of energy-dense food, sedentary lifestyle, and other environmental factors also contribute to the rising rates of obesity. Therefore, it is necessary to look beyond genetics and consider the influence of lifestyle factors and obesogenic environmental exposures and their
potential interactions with the genome i.e. epigenetics.

The most common epigenetic change studied in obese individuals is DNA methylation.Some studies have shown global DNA hypomethylation in blood and adipose tissue samples from obese individuals, while others reported global methylation. There are not
many studies done in India evaluating the epigenetic changes in obese individuals. With this rationale, we are doing this study to evaluate the DNA methylation pattern in obese individuals.

Prospective randomized comparative study to assess efficacy of King Vision Videolaryngoscope (KVL) and BPL videolaryngoscope (BPL VL) in patients with anticipated difficult airway undergoing surgery under general anesthesia.

Dr. Rochana Bakhsh

The procedure of intubation is performed daily in the operation theatre in patients undergoing surgery under general anesthesia but comes up with problems whenever there is a difficult airway in cases of obesity, cervical spine instability, head face neck trauma, or protruded lower jaw. In such cases, a video laryngoscope helps in easy visualization of the airway, and the magnified image also helps identify the important anatomical structure and manipulate the device through it. The intubation process can be seen on a monitor, so it becomes an excellent teaching tool in medical institutes.

There are several video laryngoscopes available. Out of them, the King vision laryngoscope is being used at our institute but the shape of the KVL blade makes it difficult to insert and the detachable screen adds time to the intubation process and dependency on helping hands. BPL video laryngoscope device performs direct and video laryngoscopy. The shape of the blade and the different sizes available for the pediatric and neonate group adds to the advantage of using this. Also, it comes with a separately mounted LCD screen making intubation a single operator job. 

The primary aim of this study is to compare the efficacy of using King vision laryngoscope and BPL laryngoscope in anticipated difficult airway patients undergoing surgery under general anaesthesia by checking time taken for intubation, number of attempts and other hemodynamic parameters
