Download or read book Te Rongo M ori written by Pip M. E. Williams and published by Raupo. This book was released on 2008 with total page 79 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pip Williams, a retired pharmacist living in Northland, has spent his life observing and recording the use by local Maori of native plants for medicinal purposes. Te Rongoa Maori brings together his observations on 43 New Zealand plants and the health problems they were used to treat, colourfully interspersed with anecdotal evidence and beautifully illustrated with watercolours and engravings. Much of the information in Te Rongoa Maori was told to the author by Ngapuhi kuia and kaumatua over 40 years ago. Maori in earlier times knew abou the therapeutic benefits derived from trees and plants for a variety of health problems, but had no knowledge of pharmacology. Consequently, Te Rongoa Maori makes no claims to being a manual of Maori medicine. However, it comprises an important and faithful record of information gleaned over a lifetime's close association with the Ngapuhi people, and of the cultureal importance of this heritage.

Book excerpt: Modern drug discovery uses HTS (high throughput screening) to screen compound libraries to find hit compounds. However, it is not easy to design an appropriate screening library. All cultures have used plants for their medicinal properties. In New Zealand, there are diverse and unique flora which potentially offers many unique bioactive compounds. In traditional Māori culture, there was a significant usage of native plants for medicinal purposes. To evaluate if the bioactive compounds can act as leads in modern drug discovery and development, we collected 374 molecules existing in New Zealand indigenous plants from the book New Zealand Medicinal Plants. Their physiochemical properties were evaluated with molecular descriptors using the QikProp software. Results show that nearly half of these compounds lie within drug-like chemical space, and 6.7% of the compounds are lead-like (i.e. they are relatively large). This suggests that the bioactive compounds do have a potential to be used in screening campaigns.

This book was released on 2017-07-08 with total page 400 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Chronic Kidney Disease in Disadvantaged Populations investigates the increased incidence and prevalence of kidney disease in vulnerable populations world-wide. The volume explores the complex interactions of genetic, biologic, cultural and socioeconomic factors such as the environment, and specific health behaviors that seem to be responsible for a significant proportion of the health disparities in these communities. Each chapter is written by leading experts in the field and analyzes the prevalence and incidence of pre-dialysis kidney disease in disadvantaged populations across both developed and developing countries. In addition, each contribution analyzes differentiated risk factors and compares the disparities in access to screening, prevention strategies, treatment protocols and renal replacement therapies. Chronic Kidney Disease in Disadvantaged Populations is essential reading for residents, fellows, clinicians and biomedical researchers working in nephrology, internal medicine, and epidemiology, especially those working in areas with high concentrations of disadvantaged populations. Presents a comprehensive account of both traditional and non-traditional risk factors for kidney disease Explores the mechanisms by which poverty increases the burden of kidney disease in these populations, barriers to access to renal health care, including renal replacement therapies, organ donation, and organ commercialization Offers the latest perspectives on outcomes in renal replacement therapies as well as prevention strategies
