The present investigation was conducted with an objective to validate the effect of the plant Azadirachta indica (neem) in human blood cells in a normoglycemic medium. This hypoglycemic effect had been attributed by the communities to this plant. In this study, aqueous extract of the plant was used in a concentration of 6.4% m/v and from this, following doses were prepared: 0.01 mg; 0.05 mg (low doses); 0.1 mg; 0.175 mg (medium doses); 0.7 mg and 1.4 mg (high doses); also it was used insulin Humulin R ® in different concentrations (0.1, 1, 10 nM) in order to compare both effects in a normoglycemic medium with human blood cells. The results demonstrated a hypoglycemic effect when the levels of glucose concentration went down in the normoglycemic medium in relation to the control. There was a significant effect (p<0.001) for the high doses group. These findings validate the hypoglycemic effect of this plant attributed by the communities.
La respuesta a la infección viral produce un estado de trombosis o hipercoagulabilidad que, unido a la inflamación de las células endoteliales, puede generar disfunción plaquetaria y predisposición a la formación de trombos que, aunque con frecuencia son más venosos, también pueden aparecer en el sistema arterial y producir infartos a cualquier nivel así como tromboembolia e hipertensión pulmonar. Estas manifestaciones han sido captadas hospitalariamente y al egreso de los pacientes detectados por SARS-CoV-2 habiendo ya cumplido el tiempo establecido de virulencia. Los criterios diagnósticos de respuesta inmunológica trombótica asociada a COVID-19 (RITAC) ayudan a seleccionar al paciente que está predispuesto a esta condición; a esto se añade que el paciente ya tiene un diagnóstico de infección por SARS-CoV-2.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
