Togo to go: Products and compounds derived from local plants for the treatment of diseases endemic in Sub-Saharan Africa
Background: Many African countries suffer from endemic diseases which are often caused by infections and seriously affect the social and economic development of these nations. While the access to proper medication is still limited, many of these countries are, at the same time, rich in medical plants.Materials and Methods: A review of relevant scientific (and gray) literature was carried out and information obtained from local authorities in medi…
Anti-Obesity Potentials of Aqueous and Methanol Extracts of Vernonia Amygdalina Del. Leaves in High-Fat Diet Fed Rats
Background: Obesity is currently a global epidemic. Conventional treatments have not been very satisfactory to patients, warranting a search for alternative therapeutic options that are natural, safe and affordable. This study therefore investigated the anti-obesity potentials of aqueous and methanol extracts of Vernonia amygdalina Del (AEVA and MEVA respectively) in a rat model in which obesity was induced using a high-fat diet. Materials and Me…

Malnutrition Affects the Urban-Poor Disproportionately: A Study of Nigerian Urban Children of Different Socio-Economic Statuses
Income inequality within the same place of residence may impact the nutritional status of children. This study therefore investigated the impact of income inequality on the nutritional status of children living in the same place of residence, using anthropometric tools. Children in four schools (Schools 1-4) within the vicinity of a housing estate in Umuahia, Nigeria, that charge fees making them 'very affordable', 'affordable', 'expensive' and '…

Synergistic postprandial blood glucose modulatory properties of Vernonia amygdalina (Del.), Gongronema latifolium (Benth.) and Occimum gratissimum (Linn.) aqueous decoctions
Blood pressure patterns in relation to geographic area of residence: A cross-sectional study of adolescents in Kogi state, Nigeria
These findings underscore the need for efforts to be made towards addressing adolescent blood pressure elevation (in both urban and non-urban areas) as they are a reflection of adult morbidity and mortality from hypertension and the associated disorders
Effect of an aqueous extract of Portulaca oleracea leaves on smooth muscle and rat blood pressure
Preliminary clinical investigation into the muscle relaxant actions of an aqueous extract of Portulaca oleracea applied topically
Comparison of the skeletal muscle relaxant properties of Portulaca oleracea extracts with dantrolene sodium and methoxyverapamil
Skeletal muscle relaxant action of an aqueous extract of Portulaca oleracea in the rat
Investigation into the mechanism of action of extracts of Portulaca oleracea
