Abstract Background Premenstrual syndrome (PMS) is one of the most common problems in women of childbearing age that often interferes with their work and social relationships. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the pharmacological and non-pharmacological strategies in the treatment of PMS. Materials and Methods Medline, Scopus, Cochrane, EMBASE, and Google Scholar were searched along with SID, Magiran and Irandoc for randomized control trail and non-randomized prospective or retrospective clinical studies published to Dec. 2019 that use Pharmacological and Nonpharmacological treatment for the treatment of PMS in reproductive-age women with PMS. Study selection was done by two reviews. Results Findings of the present study revealed that pharmacological treatment of PMS include lithium and fluoxetine and non-pharmacological treatment include herbal remedies: ginger, fennel, chamomile, lavender, dietary supplements: omega-3 capsules, turmeric, citrus sinensis essential oil, carbohydrate- rich foods, soy, behavioral-psychological therapies, exercise activities such as walking and yoga, and minerals (vitamin E, B6, and calcium). Conclusion PMS treatment includes pharmacological and non-pharmacological strategies. Considering its popularity and fewer complications, non-pharmacological drugs are suggested to improve the symptoms of PMS.

Since the encompasses sexual and reproductive causes of PMS are not fully known, its issues, which has always triggered treatment is also affected by various emotional reactions; therefore, healthcare factors. PMS management ranges from practitioners are expected to pay particular systematic non-pharmacological strategies, attention to both the physical and to antidepressants, hormonal strategies, psychological aspects of women's health and cognitive-behavioral therapies (6). In (1). PMS is one of the most common fact, a considerable series of physical, problems in women that is characterized psychological and behavioral symptoms with a range of physical, psychological, that, to varying degrees, interfere with and behavioral symptoms occurring in women's routine lives and disrupt their 95% of women with low severity and in daily activities, employment and family 5% with disabling severity during late care, affect their quality of life largely (7). luteal phase of the menstrual cycle (2). A Stress, behavioral fluctuations, loss of series of physical symptoms include control, depression and anger, drowsiness, abdominal pain, weight gain, breast pain, and incompetency in coordinating affairs, lack of energy, headache, exacerbation of and increasing or decreasing sexual desire chronic illnesses such as (asthma, highlight the importance of pursuing a allergies, epilepsy and migraines) and treatment for this disorder (8). Considering mental symptoms, including irritability, the importance of the subject matter, many anxiety, stress, inability to perform daily studies have investigated the prevalence, tasks, loss of control, and other etiology, and treatment of symptoms of psychological problems that disappear this syndrome in the last two decades. with onset of menstruation (3). However, despite previous researches, medical and non-medical communities According to the last review study in 2017 in Iran, the overall prevalence of this indicate a periodic and debilitating disease syndrome was reported to be 70.8% in the among women of childbearing age that is female population of childbearing age, associated with symptoms of PMS in the 80.4% in high school students, 68.9% in clinical setting, thus, it is essential to students, and 54.9% in general population perform more accurate evaluation of symptoms of this syndrome and (4). This syndrome is more common in women who do not have regular physical pharmacological and non-pharmacological activity and exercise programs, consume treatments. Besides, as healthcare costs foods high in salt and sugar, and have a increase worldwide, the use of traditional stressful life. Monozygotic twins (97%) and alternative medicine is becoming are also more likely to develop PMS than increasingly important. dizygotic twins (37%). The underlying Considering the increasing popularity of cause of this syndrome is unclear, so many these treatments, healthcare providers must experts consider it a multifactorial disorder be prepared to answer patient questions with multiple genotypes and phenotypes regarding these treatments. In other words, starting with ovulation and there is no they must have reliable, evidence-based specific laboratory test that can detect it information to deliver high quality (5). Although reviewing previous studies services. Therefore, the aim of the present have suggested low levels of study was to review the therapeutic neurotransmitters such as serotonin and interventions of PMS in women of dopamine in the etiology of PMS, childbearing age with PMS symptoms. especially the incidence of severe Int J Pediatr, Vol.8, N.2, Serial No.74, Feb. 2020 10930 Shoaee et al. 2- MATERIALS AND METHODS traditional medicine.

Accepted 28 May, 2010 Echinophora Platyloba DC. is one of the four native species of this plant in Iran. The aim of this five- step study was to investigate the antimicrobial properties of this plant. Dried aerial parts of the plant were extracted by ethanol 70% in percolator. The antimicrobial activity of ethanolic extract was evaluated against dermatophytes, Candida (C) albicans and gram positive bacteria by agar dilution method and microbroth dilution assay. Finally, the synergistic effect of Amphotericin B plus 5% ethanolic extract against C. albicans was determined by measuring MIC (minimum inhibitory concentration) and MLC (minimum lethal concentration) values. Gram positive bacteria were resistant to the extract according to measurement of zones of inhibition; Trichophyton schenlaini and Trichophyton verucosum were sensitive to concentrations ≥ 35 mg/ml, while other dermatophytes showed various susceptibilities to extract. MIC value of 5% ethanolic extract was 2 mg/ml against C. albicans using broth micro dilution method. In synergism assay, there was a 50% reduction in MIC and a 75% reduction in MLC values of the mixture of Amphotericin B and 5% ethanolic extract against C.

  • The Ecological Scales for the Species of Ukrainian Flora and Their Use in Synphytoindication
    M.G. KHOLODNY INSTITUTE OF BOTANY NAS OF UKRAINE Ya.P. Didukh THE ECOLOGICAL SCALES FOR THE SPECIES OF UKRAINIAN FLORA AND THEIR USE IN SYNPHYTOINDICATION Kyiv - 2011 Didukh, Ya.P. The ecological scales for the species of Ukrainian flora and their use in synphytoindication. – Kyiv: Phytosociocentre, 2011. - 176 p. The amplitude scales of 3300 flora species of Ukraine are presented, reflecting species relation to 12 main climate and edaphic factors. The Tsyganov, Ramensky, Tsatsenkin, Ellenberg, Landolt, Zolyomi, Zarzycki, Frank et Klotz and other ecological scales’ comparisons are illustrated. The methods of synphytoindication are presented as an approach of ecological indices assessment based on phytosociological surveys taking into account indicator species presence and their occurrence in the community. The examples of practical applications of data using ordination and gradient analysis, the principal component method, ecological mapping, assessment of ecological factors changes in space (landscapes) and time (successions) are given. It is recommended for botanists and ecologists. Tabl. 7. Fig. 17. © Didukh Ya.P. Introduction Due to the immensity of the current anthropogenic impact, serious environmen- tal changes are occurring worldwide. Plants respond to these changes accordingly; first of all they disappear in some types of habitats and appear in other. That is why ecological research of flora is a very relevant and topical task. Studies of spe- cies ecology, estimation of species’ tolerance amplitude to the effects of different ecological factors, ways of adaptation, behavior and population renewal strategy, as well as the abilities to resist changes of ecological factors are closely related with problems of biodiversity conservation. Species organization and structure ensure functioning of the whole ecosystem pyramid, energy accumulation and transformation, circulation of substances, soil formation processes, existence of heterotrophic component, and evolution of ecosystems and their components.

Tarhana is a popular traditional Turkish cereal-based fermented food product mainly produced at home or at home-scale level. Some certain mould species can grow even at low moisture and pH values and produce aflatoxins in food. This study was conducted to determine aflatoksin levels in tarhana. For this purpose, a total of 138 tarhana powder samples were collected from bazaars in Istanbul and analyzed for aflatoxins, mould contamination, and some physco-chemical parameters. As a result, 32 out of 138 tarhana samples (23.2%) were found to be contaminated with aflatoxins in the range of 0.7–16.8 µg/kg, whereas 29 samples contained Aflatoxin B1 (AFB1) ranging from 0.2–13.2 µg/kg.

(fam. Apiaceae) collected in Macedonia. The chemical composition of E. sibthorpi- ana essential oil was characterized by the presence of methyl eugenol (60.40%), p-cymene (11.18%) and α-phellandrene (10.23%). The free radical scavenging activity of extracts and essential oil was evaluated by DPPH and ABTS assays. The aqueous extract of aerial parts exhibited the strongest scavenging activity (IC50=1.67 mg/ml); results of the ABTS test showed that the most effective was the ethanol extract of aerial parts (1.11 mg vit. C/g). The essential oil showed stronger antioxidant activity compared to hydroxyanisole, ascorbic acid and quercetin that were used in the DPPH and ABTS tests, respectively. The total phenolic and flavonoid concentrations in the extracts ranged between 38.65-60.72 mg GA/g, and 3.15-19.00 mg Qu/g, respectively.
