Sexuality is a complex phenomenon that being influenced by psychological as well physiological factors. Its dysfunction includes desire, arousal, orgasmic and sex pain disorders. The present study aimed to assess the incidence of sexual (SD) related risk factors in cohort Ghanaian women.The Golombok Rust Inventory Sexual Satisfaction (GRISS) was administered 400 healthy women between 18 58 years old (mean +/- SD: 30.1 7.9) domiciled Kumasi metropolis.The response rate 75.3% after 99 were...
Background: Fruit extracts of Xylopia aethiopica are used traditionally in the management pain disorders including rheumatism, headache, colic pain, and neuralgia. Little pharmacological data exists scientific literature effect fruit extract its major diterpene, xylopic acid, on pain. The present study evaluated analgesic properties ethanol X. (XAE) acid (XA), murine models. Materials Methods: XAE XA were assessed chemical (acetic acid-induced abdominal writhing formalin tests), thermal...
The incidence of antimicrobial resistance among microbial communities is a major threat to global health care and security. Landfills, which are reservoirs for many pharmaceuticals, provide conducive habitat antimicrobial-resistant microbes resistant gene transfer therefore contributor the phenomenon resistance. Hence, this study determined levels three widely used antibiotics, metronidazole, penicillin, amoxicillin, occurrence amongst in soil leachate samples from active abandoned landfill...
Sexuality and its manifestation constitute some of the most complex human behaviour disorders are encountered in community. Sexual dysfunction is more prevalent women than men. While studies examining sexual among males females Ghana exist, there no relating problems as dyadic units. This study therefore investigated prevalence type married couples. The participants consisted couples between ages 19 66 living province Kumasi, Ghana. Socio-demographic information Golombok-Rust Inventory...
Efforts have been intensified to search for more effective antimalarial agents because of the observed failure some artemisinin-based combination therapy (ACT) treatments malaria in Ghana. Xylopic acid, a pure compound isolated from fruits Xylopia aethiopica, was investigated establish its attributable prophylactic, curative antimalarial, and antipyretic properties. The properties were determined by employing xylopic acid (10-100 mg/kg) ICR mice infected with Plasmodium berghei. exerted...

Background: Hilleria latifolia (Lam.) H. Walt. (Phytolaccaceae) is a perennial herb used in Ghanaian traditional medicine for the treatment of various painful conditions. Little scientific evidence exists literature on effect this plant pain. Materials and Methods: The present study examined antinociceptive ethanolic extract aerial parts chemical (acetic acid-induced abdominal writhing, glutamate, formalin, capsaicin tests) thermal (tail immersion test) behavioral pain models rodents....
Background Food-drug interactions (FDIs) are a significant clinical concern, impacting the effectiveness and safety of treatments. Healthcare professionals (HCPs) play crucial role in minimizing these risks through appropriate patient education. The Ho Teaching Hospital (HTH) Ghana serves large population with varying medication needs. However, there is limited data on knowledge attitudes HCPs regarding FDIs this setting. Aim This study assessed modelled towards at HTH. Methodology A...
Leaf extracts of Ficus exasperata P. Beauv. (Moraceae) are commonly used in Ghanaian traditional medicine for the treatment several pathological states including inflammatory disorders. The present study was undertaken to evaluate antiarthritic effect an ethanolic extract F. (FEE) Freund's adjuvant-induced arthritis model rats. Since free radicals and reactive oxygen species implicated joint diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis, antioxidant potential investigated vitro experimental models....
The leaves of Albizia zygia (DC.) J.F. Macbr. (Leguminosae-Mimosoideae) are used in Ghanaian traditional medicine for the treatment pain, inflammatory disorders and fever (including malaria).The present study evaluated anti-inflammatory, antipyretic analgesic effects hydroethanol leaf extract (AZE) animal models.The anti-inflammatory AZE were examined carrageenan-induced foot oedema model baker's yeast-induced pyrexia test respectively. effect possible mechanisms action also assessed...
