aesculus indica/edema

In a randomized placebo controlled parallel double blind study on 40 patients suffering from venous edema in chronic deep vein incompetence, the edema-reducing effect of horse chestnut seed extract vs. placebo, being the main test variable, was demonstrated by hydroplethysmography to be

To evaluate the effects of saponins from Chinese Buckeye Seed in the treatment of cerebral edema in patients with stroke or cerebral trauma, a metaanalysis of randomized controlled trials was conducted. Randomized trials that compare the effects of treatment with saponins from Chinese Buckeye Seed

Within the framework of a case observation study involving more than 800 general practitioners, more than 5,000 patients with chronic venous insufficiency (CVI) were treated with standardised horse chestnut extract and followed up at regular intervals. The evolution of the symptoms, tolerability and

Extracts of Aesculus hippocastanum L. (horse chestnut) seed have been used in the treatment of chronic venous insufficiency, edema and hemorrhoids. Most of the beneficial effects of horse chestnut are attributed to its principal component β-escin or escin. We have evaluated the cytotoxic and

Escin, a natural mixture of triterpenoid saponins isolated from the seed of the horse chestnut (Aesculus hippocastanum), has been demonstrated to possess glucocorticoid (GC)‑like anti‑edematous and anti‑inflammatory effects. The aim of the present study was to investigate whether escin exhibits

Extracts of Aesculus hippocastanum (horse chestnut) seed have been used in the treatment of chronic venous insufficiency, edema, and hemorrhoids. Most of the beneficial effects of horse chestnut are attributed to its principal component beta-escin or aescin. Recent studies suggest that beta-escin

BACKGROUND Escin Ia and isoescin Ia have been traditionally used clinically as the chief active ingredients of escin, a major triterpene saponin isolated from horse chestnut (Aesculus hippocastanum) seeds for the treatment of chronic venous insufficiency, hemorrhoids, inflammation and

Superficial thrombophlebitis is a frequently occurring disease which, because of risk factors, affects women to a greater extent than men. The presence of deep venous thrombosis should be excluded by imaging procedures. Heparin or low-molecular weight heparins are indicated for treatment, if deep

Although Bell's palsy is the most common acute facial paralysis, the cause of it is still unknown. This made the treatment for it remain very limited. Many methods are simply symptomatic treatment. Up to now we have known that Bell's palsy is related to viral infection and the pathomechanism of

BACKGROUND Safe and effective oral therapies for chronic venous insufficiency (CVI) would provide an important alternative to mechanical compression treatment. Several narrative reviews and one systematic review have summarized the efficacy of horse chestnut seed extract (HCSE), but to our knowledge

This paper continues our review of scientifically evaluated plant extracts in dermatology. After plants effective against dermatophytes, botanicals with anti-edema effects in chronic venous insufficiency are discussed. There is good evidence from randomized clinical studies that plant extracts from

Escin, a natural mixture of triterpenoid saponins isolated from the seed of the horse chestnut (Aesculus hippocastanum), had been demonstrated to possess anti-edematous and anti-inflammatory effects. The present study was designed to investigate whether escin exhibits synergistic anti-inflammatory
