Cannabis use in patients with multiple sclerosis.
No full textINTRODUCTION: Little is known about the extent and patterns of cannabis use in people with multiple sclerosis (MS). METHODS: MS patients attending neurology outpatient clinics at two hospitals in London and one in Kent, UK completed a questionnaire. RESULTS: Questionnaires were completed by 254/337 (75%) MS patients. Forty-three per cent had used cannabis at some stage (ever users). Of these, 68% (75/110) had used cannabis to alleviate symptoms of MS (MS-related cannabis use). Forty-six (18%) had used cannabis in the last month (current users), of whom 12% (31/254) had used it for symptom relief. Being married or having a long-term partner, tobacco smokers and increasing disability were independent risk factors for MS-related cannabis use. Compared to patients who could walk unaided, cannabis use was more likely in those who were chair-bound (adjusted OR 2.47; 1.10-5.56) or only able to walk with an aid (adjusted OR 1.56; 0.90-3.60). Pain and spasms were common reasons for cannabis use. Seventy-one per cent of individuals who had never used cannabis said they would try the drug if it were available on prescription. CONCLUSION: A large proportion of MS patients had tried cannabis for symptom control, however current use was small. A subgroup with greater disability appears to derive some symptomatic benefit

Valor de uso medicinal de la flora empleada por la Comunidad Andina de Jesús, Cajamarca, Perú
No full textThe medicinal flora plays a valuable role in improving the quality of life; ancestral knowledge that constitutes a legacy inherited by the Andean-Amazonian communities. The research was focused on determining the medicinal use value of the flora used by the Andean Community of Jesús. 96 semi-structured interviews were applied, using the "snowball" technique. The population of the Andean Community employs 84 species of flora, distributed in 80 genera and 45 families; where the Asteraceae, Lamiaceae, Rutaceae and Fabaceae were the most representative. Likewise, they suffer from 56 diseases, grouped into 11 categories, being the diseases of the Systems: respiratory (FCI=0.68), digestive and gastrointestinal (FCI=0.57), urinary (FCI=0.57), cardiovascular (FCI=0.56), reproductive (FCI=0.54) and Nervous (FCI=0.53), the most treated. Finally, the Andean Community attributes great importance to 54 species of medicinal flora; Therefore, it is urgent to implement projects and research that promote their sustainability.La flora medicinal juega un valioso rol en la mejora de la calidad de vida; saber ancestral que se constituye en un legado heredado por las comunidades Andino-amazónicas. La investigación se abocó a determinar el valor de uso medicinal de la flora empleada por la Comunidad Andina de Jesús. Se aplicaron 96 entrevistas semiestructuradas, empleando la técnica “bola de nieve”. El poblador de la Comunidad Andina emplea 84 especies de flora, distribuidas en 80 géneros y 45 familias; donde las Asteraceae, Lamiaceae, Rutaceae y Fabaceae, fueron las más representativas. Asimismo, padecen 56 enfermedades, agrupadas en 11 categorías, siendo las enfermedades de los Sistemas: respiratorio (FCI=0,68), digestivo y gastrointestinal (FCI=0,57), urinario (FCI=0,57), cardiovascular (FCI= 0,56), reproductivo (FCI=0,54) y Nervioso (FCI=0,53), las mayormente tratadas. Finalmente, la Comunidad Andina atribuye gran importancia a 54 especies de flora medicinal; por lo que urge implementar proyectos e investigaciones que fomenten la sustentabilidad de las mismas
