Introduction. Garidi-5, a traditional medicine composed of 5 herbs including Terminalia chebula Retz., Aconitum Kusnezoffii Reichb., Acorus calamus L., Saussurea lappa L., and musk of Moschus moschiferus, has been used in traditional Mongolian medicine as an analgesic and antibacterial medicine. The present work was undertaken to evaluate the traditional drug Garidi-5 for its analgesic and anti-inflammatory activity.Materials and Methods. The method of Winter et al. was used to study acute inflammation. Rats in groups of five each were treated with vehicle, Garidi-5 (20, 80 and 200 mg/kg, p.o.) and Indometacin (10 mg/kg) one hour prior to Carrageenan injection. 0.1 ml of 1% Carrageenan was injected into the subplantar tissue of left hind paw of each rat. Swelling of carrageenan injected foot was measured at 0, 0.5, 2, 4 h using Plethysmometer (UGO Basile, Italy)). The right hind paw was injected with 0.1 ml of vehicle.Results. The Garidi-5 (20, 80 and 200 mg/kg) significantly (P<0.01) inhibited carrageenan induced rat paw edema as compared to control group. Maximum inhibition of paw edema was observed with Garidi- 5 (80 and 200 mg/kg) at 4 h when compared to the control group (Tab.1). In assay data, the TNF-α, IL-1β and IL-6 secretion in serum were highly elevated by carrageenan induction but administration of Garidi-5 signifi cantly reduced serum secretion of inflammatory mediatorsas compared to vehicle group (Tab. 2).Conclusion. In conclusion, Traditional drug Garidi-5 have anti-in flammatory properties. The potential efficacy of Garidi-5 to treat inflammation is based in a part on the hy pothesis that it will suppress the proinflammatory cytok ines resulting in less oedema.

Introduction: Among the ancient medical books, manuscripts written in clear script, with unique vocabulary and treatment methods, have been found. The vocabulary in this work is very ancient, and the treatment methods are systematic, with few mentions of theoretical concepts. Most of the unfamiliar words were written in the pronunciation of the ancient Oirat Torghut and Dorbet. Some of these words were of Uyghur and Sartuul (Khui Khui) origin. Therefore, we worked to determine when and by whom this book was written, what its content was, and which direction of medicine it belongs to. Objectives: To study an ancient book written in clear script, containing Islamic medical knowledge, found in Mongolia. Results “The Healing Charm of Blue Ram” (Khökh khutsyn uvdis orshivai) records that Genghis Khan ordered Chagatai Khan to send him medical books from his land. He may have been in poor health shortly after the founding of the Chagatai state in 1225. Thus, he ordered Chagatai to send him books containing medical methods. It is reasonable to assume that the books were sent in 1226. At that time, the Chagatai state was highly developed, consisting of many ethnic groups, including Khorezm, Sartuul, and Uyghurs, who practiced Islam. In particular, the medical field was well advanced, resulting in many excellent doctors and medical books. We tried to list and explain a total of 15 words from “The Healing Charm of Blue Ram,” with many more to explore in the future. In general, it is hypothesized that many vocabulary related to medicine have spread to the Mongolian vocabulary through Arabic, Turkic, Uyghur, and Sartuul among the Western Mongolians. Conclusion: The ancient book “The Healing Charm of Blue Ram” found in Mongolia, written in clear Mongolian script, contains Islamic medical knowledge, as well as traditional Mongolian medicine methods, as is clear from the explanations of some vocabulary related to medicine. In the future, it is important to further clarify how Mongolian medicine and Islamic medical knowledge influenced each other and the contribution of Mongol khans to the development of the Ilkhanate and the Chagatai state in the study of the history of Mongolian medicine.

Introduction: Diet therapy is based onbody constitution, disease conditions and seasonal influences in traditional medicine. Traditional principles of disease treatment and prevention with diet can be combined with conventional medical practices and may lead to a possibility of developing new treatment and preventive strategies. Objectives: To study the effects of interconnected factors of diet and season on some pathological changes of organ systems, we examined the effects of horse meat which has hot quality and goat meat which has cold quality on rat models of acute hepatitis induced by CCL4 and acute pulmonary edema induced by adrenalin hydrochloride in spring and autumn. Materials and methods: CCL4 (200 mg/kg) was was administered percutaneously to induce acute hepatitis in rats. Adrenalin hydrochloride (25 mg/kg) injected via the tail vein by slow injection to induce acute pulmonary edema in mice. Horse and goat meat were given for 14 days before the CCL4 and adrenalin hydrochloride administration. Renal activity was determined by measuring urine volume at every 6 hours. Results: Results of our study show that goat meat which has cold quality is more effective in autumn when a rise of bile element is occurred, and horse meat which has a cold quality is more effective in autumn when phlegm element rises. Horse meat increased pulmonary surfactant stabilitycoefficient by 54.73% in autumn while it increased that by 69.66% in spring. Decreased alveolar collapse and improved pulmonary surfactant stability by horse meat treatment support the concept of traditional medicine that diseases of the lungs, the phlegm dominant organs are treated with diet, medicine, and behavior with warm and oily qualities. In spring, urine excretion was increased in animalstreated with goat meat which has cold and oily qualities. Conclusions: 1. The “spring + horse meat” and “autumn + goat meat” versions of treatments more effectively decrease cytolysis during acute hepatocellular necrosis in animals administered CCL4. 2. Compare to goat meat, horse meat has more effects to decrease alveolar collapse and pulmonary edema in mice model of pulmonary edema induced by adrenalin hydrochloride. 3. “Goat meat + spring” version of treatment decreases urine excretion in experimental animals.

Garidi-5, a traditional medicine composed of 5 herbs including Terminalia chebula Retz., Aconitum Kusnezoffii Reichb., Acorus calamus L., Saussurea lappa L., and musk ofMoschus moschiferus, has been used in traditional Mongolian medicine as an analgesic and antibacterial medicine. The aim of the study was to evaluate the central and peripheral analgesic action of traditional mongolian drug Garidi-5 in experimental animal models. Analgesic activity was assessed by tail flick method (for central action) and l acetic acid- induced writhing test (for peripheral action). Garidi-5 extract (20 mg/kg, 80, 200mg/kg p.o.) and aspirin (100 mg/kg) showed significant peripheral analgesic activity (p<0.05). Garidi-5 extract (20 mg/kg, 80, 200mg/kg p.o.) and Morphin (10 mg/kg, i.p.) also showed significant central analgesic activity (p<0.05). Conclusion: Biological activity substances were detected in the Traditional drug Garidi-5. Traditional drug Garidi-5 has analgesic effects.

Background: Obesity, especially central obesity, is a risk factor for non-communicable chronic diseases such as dyslipidemia, type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), cardiovascular diseases (CVD), and metabolic syndrome (MetS). Aim: Study the association between the subcutaneous fat area (SFA) and visceral fat area (VFA) with lipid metabolism parameters in adults with MetS. Materials and Methods: Data from 1511 participants who visited the ‘NURA Mongolia’ Ai Health screening center between September 2023 and February 2024, including general information, DEXA (Dual X-ray Absorptiometry), and biochemical analysis results, were used. Metabolic syndrome (MeS) was assessed based on the harmonizing criteria 2009 (≥3 criteria). VFA and SFA were categorized into four groups using quartiles (Q1-Q4). Statistical analysis was performed using SPSS v26, including T-tests, multiple logistic regression (OR, 95% CI), and ROC (AUC) analysis. Results: The average age of the participants was 30.5±3.9 years, with a BMI of 25.1 kg/m², and 49.5% were male. The group with MetS (n=531) had significantly higher levels of VFA and SFA compared to the group that rated their health as relatively healthy and had no clinical diagnosis (n=979) (control group) (p<0.0001), with males showing higher VFA and females showing higher SFA (p<0.0001). The Q4 group for VFA had a significant association with MetS in males (4.611, 95% CI=2.394–9.591) and females (2.253, 95% CI=1.097-3.912) (p<0.001). Logistic regression analysis showed that increased VFA was more strongly associated with MetS in males (β=0.325, p<0.0001) and females (β=0.338, p<0.003) than BMI. The AUC for predicting MetS was 0.790 (95% CI=0.750-0.831) for VFA and 0.401 (95% CI=0.351-0.451) for SFA, with all results being statistically significant (p<0.001). VFA had a higher predictive value compared to other markers. Conclusion In healthy men with metabolic syndrome, VFA is more prominently defined, while SFA is higher in healthy women. Since VFA is a better predictor of metabolic syndrome than SFA, it increases the risk of diseases such as cardiovascular diseases and type 2 diabetes in men, whereas SFA in women serves as a protective factor.
