This chapter suggests that knowledge and examination of prodromal symptoms was important in ancient times and emphasis was given that physician should carefully recognize disease in early stage and predict course of disease. With the help of eight diseases of [[Nidana Sthana]] important principles related to prognosis have been laid down which are also applicable to all other diseases and are valid till now. Various aspects of dreams including physiology, types, interpretation and prognostic importance have also been described. Various dreams along with physical and mental features have been incorporated in prodromal symptoms which signify that dreams should also be analyzed and properly investigated before predicting prognosis of any disease. Even with restricted technological tools, par excellence observation and principles described regarding ''Arishta Lakshana'' are valid till now. − − '''Keywords''': Prodromal symptoms, dream, prognosis, disease, death. − − === Introduction === − − In this chapter prodromal symptoms and dreams related to poor prognosis of diseases- fatality are described. In the first verse, Charaka has emphasized that he will describe both common and special prodromal symptoms. This indicates that while there may be some prodromata which result out of normal pathogenesis, some are unusual and unexpected. In the next verse it has been said that if all prodromal symptoms are manifesting and are severe in nature then such a condition will be fatal. This principle is applicable to all other diseases also. Prodromal symptoms of ''kushta'' and ''prameha'' suggest that complications manifest before cardinal symptoms of the disease appear. If body metabolism in any disease is altered severely during latent phase of disease and complications are appearing before manifestation of full-fledged disease then such condition will be difficult to cure. Example of ''gulma'' suggests that there are certain diseases which are incurable in nature and prodromal symptoms related to such clinical conditions will always be precursors of imminent death. It is commonly seen that any person who is emaciated and have low immunity and strength, when affected by disease, has fatal consequences due to less resistance. This fact is explained with the example of ''shosha''. Another important aspect regarding disease prognosis is that, if a person is continuously partaking causative factors or is in constant exposure to the causative factors, body will be unable to fight disease properly and thus there will be less chances of recovery from the disease. This point is also mentioned while describing prognosis of ''shosha''. − − From the above discussion it is clear that prodromal symptoms can be useful in predicting diagnosis of any disease. But now question arises whether it is practically possible to predict prognosis with prodromal symptoms? We should admit that it is very difficult and one will need years of experience to attain such competence. Another important fact is that the prediction of prognosis can be done from ''purvarupa'' only after disease manifestation. Charaka states that ''purvarupa'' converting into a particular disease in future can be termed a prognostic sign. This indicates that we cannot predict by only prodromal symptoms. We have to look into whether disease was produced after ''purvarupa'' or not. For example, delirium in ''raktapitta'' is indicator of poor prognosis. If delirium is seen in any patient but he is not developing ''raktapitta'' we cannot predict poor prognosis. In this condition, after manifestation of ''raktapitta'' we need to ask the patient whether he suffered from delirium before disease manifestation or not. It is a retrospective inquiry about ''purvarupa'' based on which a prospective prediction may be made. We will have to follow detailed retro-prospective approach and will need proper patient history comprising of each and every detail from prodromal symptoms to disease manifestation. Thus practically, prodromal symptoms are helpful only after disease manifestation as they are not independent. Since accompanying symptoms may also lead to predictions, they can also be regarded as tools of predictive prognosis. This might be the reason that Sushruta and Vagbhata have not described dreams in reference of ''purvarupa'' but have described in ''rupavastha'' (stage of disease manifestation). − − Biomarkers are recent advancements can be the answer to above problem as we do not need to wait for disease manifestation and can predict prognosis by seeing values of biomarkers related to that disease. In 2001, a consensus panel at the National Institutes of Health defined the term biomarker as ‘a characteristic that is objectively measured and evaluated as an indicator of normal biological processes, pathogenic processes, or pharmacologic responses to a therapeutic intervention or other health care intervention’.[1] Biomarker defined as alteration in the constituents of tissues or body fluids provide a powerful approach to understanding the spectrum of chronic disease with application in at least 5 areas like screening, diagnosis, prognostics, prediction of disease recurrence and therapeutic monitoring.[2] The biomarker is either produced by the diseased organ (e.g., tumor) or by the body in response to disease. Before diagnosis, markers could be used for screening and risk assessment. Tumor classification, stage and sometimes grade are generally used to assess prognosis. Researches in the field of biomarkers may give us chance to know prognosis of disease in early stage. − − Another important aspect mentioned in this chapter is concept of dreams. The descriptions related to dreams are found abundantly in the ancient oriental classics, specifically the Atharvaveda, Upanishadas, Puranas, Darshanas and [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ayurveda Ayurveda]. The description of the ''doshika'' dreams of the Atharvaveda is similar to that in [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ayurveda Ayurveda]. Dreams are mentioned while describing ''purvarupa'', ''rupa'' and ''arishta lakshanas''.[3] Sushruta states that sex of the unborn child can be predicted and Vagbhata says that ''doshika prakriti'' can be known by the help of dreams. − − Subject of dreams is dealt in very scientific manner. According to Charaka, dreams occur when person is in relatively wakeful state. This has been proved now by the researches that dreams mainly occur in the rapid-eye movement (REM) stage of sleep—when brain activity is high and resembles that of being awake. In the late 19th century, psychotherapist Sigmund Freud developed a theory that the content of dreams is driven by unconscious wish fulfillment. Freud called dreams the "royal road to the unconscious”. [4] To Freud, no dream was of entertainment value, they all held important meanings. Dreams reflect the dreamer’s mental, emotional, and physical state. This fact is well established in this chapter while describing classification of dreams. Dreams are based on our day to day interactions and so are classified as dreams seen, heard, felt etc. Two of the seven types, one which predict prognosis and one which is due to vitiation of ''doshas'' are said to have fatal consequences. − − Research studies are needed to prove that dreams can be used as markers of prognosis. Some studies have been conducted in this regard but we cannot make strong conclusion on basis of their results. In a few studies it has been shown that hormone levels affect dreams. One of the studies states that cortisol plays an important role in controlling the state of memory systems during sleep. High levels of cortisol, as are observed late at night and, typically in the context of REM sleep, disrupt normal hippocampal → neocortical communication, thereby interfering with forms of memory consolidation dependent upon this communication. At the same time, the content of dreams is also affected.[5] In neurological and psychological diseases dream disturbances are often seen but few other diseases have also been found to affect dreams. Patients with sleep apnea are reported to have intense nightmares. [6] Abnormal dreams have also been reported in diseases like Relapsing fever,[7] Cardiac ischemia[8] etc. Certain drugs also affect dreams e.g. Anti malarial drug has shown to alter dream types.[9] This proves that at times diseases certainly affect dreams but intense research studies are needed to actually establish this fact on scientific grounds. − − ===Sanskrit text, Transliteration and English Translation=== − − अथातः पूर्वरूपीयमिन्द्रियं व्याख्यास्यामः||१|| − − इति ह स्माह भगवानात्रेयः||२|| − − athātaḥ pūrvarūpīyamindriyaṁ vyākhyāsyāmaḥ||1|| − − iti ha smāha bhagavānātrēyaḥ||2|| − − athAtaH pUrvarUpIyamindriyaM vyAkhyAsyAmaH||1|| − − iti ha smAha bhagavAnAtreyaH||2|| − − We shall now expound the chapter of premonitory symptoms related to signs of death. − Thus spoke lord Atreya.[1-2] − − ==== Incurable prodromal signs of ''jwara'' leading to death ==== − − पूर्वरूपाण्यसाध्यानां विकाराणां पृथक् पृथक्| − भिन्नाभिन्नानि वक्ष्यामो भिषजां ज्ञानवृद्धये||३|| − − पूर्वरूपाणि सर्वाणि ज्वरोक्तान्यतिमात्रया| − यं विशन्ति विशत्येनं मृत्युर्ज्वरपुरःसरः||४|| − − अन्यस्यापि च रोगस्य पूर्वरूपाणि यं नरम्| − विशन्त्यनेन कल्पेन तस्यापि मरणं ध्रुवम्||५|| − − pūrvarūpāṇyasādhyānāṁ vikārāṇāṁ pr̥thak pr̥thak| − bhinnābhinnāni vakṣyāmō bhiṣajāṁ jñānavr̥ddhayē||3|| − − pūrvarūpāṇi sarvāṇi jvarōktānyatimātrayā| − yaṁ viśanti viśatyēnaṁ mr̥tyurjvarapuraḥsaraḥ||4|| − − anyasyāpi ca rōgasya pūrvarūpāṇi yaṁ naram| − viśantyanēna kalpēna tasyāpi maraṇaṁ dhruvam||5|| − − pUrvarUpANyasAdhyAnAM vikArANAM pRuthak pRuthak| − bhinnAbhinnAni vakShyAmo bhiShajAM j~jAnavRuddhaye||3|| − − pUrvarUpANi sarvANi jvaroktAnyatimAtrayA| − yaM vishanti vishatyenaM mRutyurjvarapuraHsaraH||4|| − − anyasyApi ca rogasya pUrvarUpANi yaM naram| − vishantyanena kalpena tasyApi maraNaM dhruvam||5|| − − For enhancing the knowledge of physicians, we will distinctly explain the general and fatal prodromal symptoms of diseases. − If all prodromal symptoms of ''jwara'' manifests in severe degree, the person will die.

a woman who is dark in complexion, who is sinful, who has long hair and nails, hanging breasts, or who is clad in garlands of red flowers and red garments is regarded to be as fatal as a fatal night. − These are severe dreams which indicate death of a patient. − − If a healthy man sees such dreams, his life becomes doubtful, rarely does he escape.

[Verse No.3-5] − • If any person is continuously exposed to etiological agents and complications appear earlier than such disease is going to have poor prognosis. It is also emphasized that any person who is severely debilitated will not recover from any disease easily. Interpretation based on dreams should also be considered while predicting course of the disease. One special note from this chapter is that they describe symptoms in combination than in solitary appearance which shows the complexity of disease causing and disease prognostic process leading to fatality. Perhaps this needs a specially designed research to study on relation between dreams and Arishtas. [Verse No.6-9] − • It has been emphasized that not only clinical presentations but personal experiences of the patient can play role in disease outcome and so should not be neglected. This analogy described here has a striking resemblance with astronomy and understanding of body components. They attribute special colors, precious stones in relation with Dhatus, zodiac signs and body components. Perhaps Jyothisha Shastra (astrology) and gemology can be referred for more explanation. [Verse No.10-11] − • It has been emphasized that even minor complaints of the patient should not be ignored as they can be indicator of forthcoming serious and grave conditions. [Verse No.12-13] − • Significance of dreams in prodromal symptoms and fatal consequences have been described which need further study and research. All the three Doshas should be excessively vitiated and should involve ‘Manovaha Srotas’ i.e. channels associated with mind for producing such kind of dreams. − − Vidhi Vimarsha : − - In present era we don’t predict prognosis by prodromal symptoms except in few cases as prodromal symptoms are not exactly known in most of the diseases. Due to ambiguity, prodromal symptoms are not considered reliable and this might be the reason they are not given importance in disease diagnosis and prognosis. [Verse No.3-5] − - In the example of tuberculosis, if person is severely debilitated and then consumption is occurring then there are more chances that he will succumb to disease. Persistence of cause like sexual indulgence in such condition will further precipitate the possibility of fatality. Here one point is noticeable that rhinorrhoea is not a symptom of tuberculosis. It can occur as complication of extra-pulmonary tuberculosis which may lead to bony erosion, out-pouching of the dura, CSF leak, and subsequent bacterial meningitis which is a fatal condition. This condition suggests that if severe complications are occurring earlier than manifestation of cardinal feature of the disease, it indicates poor prognosis of disease.[10] This rule applies to all other diseases: if prior health status of person is poor, he continues to partake etiological agents and complications are appearing in very early stage then disease produced in future will be fatal in nature. − - Horrible dreams in a person indicate the decreased mental strength of the person. ‘Mind’ is component of health and patient can combat diseases easily with strong mind and will power. Disease is always difficult to cure in a depressed person with low will power. This might be a reason why Acharya Charaka has mentioned importance of dreams while predicting prognosis of any disease. Lifestyle has changed since this text was composed, the type of dreams and their interpretation should also be changed, requiring research. We often give importance to Shareera Doshas and neglect the importance of Manasa Doshas in causation and continuation of disease process. Perhaps this chapter gives us a scope to view things from different dimension. For all dreams the role of Manasa Doshas are pivotal. This needs further research [Verse No.6-9] − - From above verse it can be inferred that delirium before bleeding disorders will be fatal for the patient. Important cause of delirium is old age and other risk factors are poor overall health, anemia, malnutrition, underlying medical or neurologic illness etc. [11] If we critically analyze these factors we can infer that each of these will deteriorate general condition of the patient and so even slight bleeding can produce fatal results in such persons. [Verse No.10-11] − - Kushta literally means discoloration, disgrace, disfiguration of the normal skin texture. From above verse it can be inferred that here Kushta wound refers to non healing ulcers of leprosy. Leprosy is a chronic infectious disease caused by Mycobacterium leprae, the only pathogenic bacteria able to infect peripheral nerves. About 30% of people with leprosy develop nerve damage. Neural impairment results in a set of sensitive, motor and autonomic disturbances, with ulcers originating primarily on the hands and feet. Neuropathic ulcers are one of the most common squeal of leprosy, but little is known about their clinical and epidemiological aspects. [12] If wounds are occurring before change in normal texture of skin it shows that wounds are occurring in prodromal stage and sensory loss has occurred till this stage and so slight injuries are resulting into wound formation. Such condition will lead to late diagnosis and hence chances of recovery will be minimal. [Verse No.14-15] − − - Symptoms mentioned above in prodromal symptoms of Unmada are negative symptoms and so there are chances of more suicidal tendency which is a major cause of death in ‘Unmada’. The presence and duration of prodromal symptoms may predict outcome in schizophrenia, that is, long duration of prodromal symptoms may be indicative of poor prognosis. [14] − - Aura are common in seizures of occipital or temporal lobe origin in patients with focal epileptic seizures. [15] Patients with refractory temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE) have an increased risk of sudden death that is 50 times greater than that in the general population. So if hallucinations are present in epilepsy they indicate grave prognosis. [Verse No.18-23] − - As mentioned earlier dreams are replica of mind and such kinds of dream represents weak and feeble mental status which is not strong enough to fight diseases properly. So if such dreams are frequently seen by patients they will have poor rate of recovery as compared to patient with strong mind and will power. [Verse No.27-40] − - In modern era, during late 19th century, psychotherapist Sigmund Freud gave emphasis on dream connection with mind in his famous book ‘The interpretation of dreams’. He developed a theory that the content of dreams is driven by unconscious wish fulfillment. [16] Presently dream is defined as successions of images, ideas, emotions, and sensations that occur involuntarily in the mind during certain stages of sleep. [17] Description of Manovaha Srotas in pathogenesis of dream shows that role of mind in producing dreams was known in ancient times. − - Various studies have established link between REM sleep and dreaming. [18] Poly somnograms show brainwave patterns in REM to be similar to that recorded during wakefulness. Intense dreaming occurs during REM sleep as a result of heightened brain activity. This proves that observations noted by ancient Ayurvedic seers related to pathogenesis of dream are minute and correct. [Verse No.41-42] − - As mentioned above dreams more or less depict unconsciousness state. Freud called dreams the "royal road to the unconscious”. They are related to activities which we have seen, listened, wished, thought etc. Based on this fact seven types of dream have been classified here. Five of them are mild as they are more near to events which we encounter in day to day life. Last two have fatal consequences as they are due to disease or Dosha involvement. [Verse No.43] − - It is difficult to predict dream consequences on the basis of time or order in which they were seen. Researches are needed to scientifically prove the validity of such dream prediction. [Verse No.44-46] − References: − 1. Torres-Bugarín O, Zavala-Cerna MG, Nava A, Flores-García A, Ramos-Ibarra ML.
