Problem statement: Sequential pattern mining is one of the specific data mining tasks, particularly from retail data. The task is to discover all sequential patterns with a user-specified minimum support, where support of a pattern is the number of data-sequences that contain the pattern. Approach: To find a sequence patterns variety of algorithm like AprioriAll and Generalized Sequential Patterns (GSP) were there. We present fast and efficient algorithms called AprioriAllSID and GSPSID for mining sequential patterns that were fundamentally different from known algorithms. Results: The proposed algorithm had been implemented and compared with AprioriAll and Generalized Sequential Patterns (GSP). Its performance was studied on an experimental basis. We combined the AprioriAllSID algorithm with AprioriAll algorithm into a Hybrid algorithm, called AprioriAll Hybrid. Conclusion: Implementation shows that the execution time of the algorithm to find sequential pattern depends on total no of candidates generated at each level and the time taken to scan the database. Our performance study shows that the proposed algorithms have an excellent performance over the best existing algorithms.

Vatarakta is caused due to Dushita vata and Dushita rakta which vitiate independently and also interdependently. They further lodge in the different Dhathu and manifest as Utthana or Gambhira vatarakta. Based on symptomology, Gambhira vatarakta can be co-related to gouty arthritis, a disorder of purine metabolism. Ayurvedic classics indicate many single herb and compound formulations in management of Vatarakta. Among them, Guduchi which has been mentioned as the Agrya dravya for Vatarakta, and Gambhari, which has been indicated as Vataraktahara by Bhavaprakasha Nighantu, have been selected for trial in this study. 40 subjects fulfilling the inclusion criteria were selected and randomly divided into two groups. Group A and Group B were given Guduchi kanda Kashaya and Gambhari twak Kashaya respectively, 40ml per day in two divided doses, before food, with Jala as Anupana, for a duration of 48 days. Sandhi shula, Sandhi daha, Sandhi shotha, and Sandhi stabdhata were considered as subjective parameters, and Serum Uric Acid levels and Erythrocyte Sedimentation Rate were taken as objective parameters. Assessment of these parameters was done before and after the intervention. Appropriate statistical tests were applied to analyse the results. Both groups showed marked improvement in the subjective and objective parameters which was statistically significant (p<0.01). Both Guduchi and Gambhari have shown efficacy in management of Vatarakta. On comparison of two groups, Guduchi was more effective clinically with respect to all the parameters.
