<big>'''Nidana Sthana Chapter 4. Diagnosis and etiopatheogenesis of Obstinate Urinary Disorders including diabetes '''</big> | |||
<big>'''Abstract'''</big> | |||
<div style="text-align:justify;">This chapter describes the disease prameha (group of obstinate urinary disorders including diabetes) as well as its etiopathogenesis, types, clinical features, prognosis, prodromal symptoms, complications, and a line of treatment. Though it is predominantly a kapha dosha disorder, there are variants involving all three doshas and ten dushya (body tissues and other elements). Excessive and turbid urination are the cardinal signs of all prameha. All those urinary and systemic diseases that cause copious quantities, as well as the abnormal (including turbid) quality of urination, come under the umbrella of prameha. This chapter briefly explains the importance of interaction of exogenous factors, endogenous and tissue response factors in the manifestation of the disease. The concept of genetic susceptibility to disease and effect of chronic disease on genes is also incorporated in this chapter. </div> | |||
