Brief Summary
Modification(s)  

Ø Effect of Therapy on Sandhishoola (Knee Joint Pain): -

In Group A, the mean before treatment was 5.286 which improved to 3.714 after treatment. It showed an improvement with Mean Difference of 1.571 ±0.7559 (S.D) with 29.72%. The statistical analysis showed very significant result at p value (< 0.0005). 

In Group B, the mean score before treatment was 4.867 which improved to 2.733 after treatment. It showed an improvement with Mean Difference of 2.133±0.5164 (S.D.) with 43.82%.The statistical analysis showed extremely significant result at p value < 0.0001.

Intergroup comparison was done to assess the comparative efficacy of both groups. When Group A was compared with Group B on symptom of Sandhishoola, the two-tailed p value was 0.0327that was significant. it means that their statistical difference in the efficacy of both treatments on Sandhishoola.

Vitiation of Vata has an important role in the arising ofJanu-Sandhigata Vata. Shoola doesn’t occur without Vata. The Rukshata of Vata is cured by Tailadue to Snigdha. The Virya of Tailla is Ushna. It has effect on VatikaShoola. Tilataila has Snehana, Vedanasthapana, Sandhaniya, ShoolaPrashamana, Balyakarma. Basti is the best medicament for Vatika disorders. The properties of Basti which is VatanulomanaandSrotoshodhaka remove the impacted stool mass in the body and pacifying Vata inPakvashaya gives direct effect onJanu-Sandhigata Vata.Similarly, effect of Snehana and Swedana is worth mentioning, as Snehana is said to be Mardavakaraand Swedana is said to be Shoolaghna. Thus, irrespective of the material used these two procedures will have a certain positive effect towards reducing Shoola.

Ø Effect of Therapy on Sandhisotha (Swelling over joints): -

In Group A, the mean score before treatment was 1.833 which improved to 0.333 after treatment. It showed an improvement with Mean Difference of 1.500 ±0.674 (S.D). with 81.83% change. The statistical analysis showed very significant result at p value < 0.0005. 

In Group B, the mean before treatment was 1.750 which improved to 0.2500 after treatment. It showed an improvement with Mean Difference of 1.500±0.674 (S.D.). with 85.71% change. The statistical analysis showed significant result at p value < 0.0005. which 85.71% change.

Intergroup comparison was done to assess the comparative efficacy of both groups. When Group A was compared with Group B on symptom ofSandhisotha, the two-tailed p value was 0.7908that was insignificant. Its means there is no statistical difference in the efficacy of both treatments onSandhisotha.

The Ushnata applied by the Janu Basti procedure and UshnaVirya of drugs do the Pachana of the Dushya involved in the formation of Sotha. Due to this action the Sothamight have reduced in Group B.

Ø Effect of Therapy on Sandhigraha(Stiffness in joints): -

In Group A, the mean score before treatment was 2.000 which improved to 1.000 after treatment. It showed an improvement with Mean Difference of 1.000 ±0.6030 (S.D). with50% change. The statistical analysis showed very significant result at p value < 0.0020.

In Group B, the mean before treatment was 2.000 which improved to 0.6667 after treatment. It showed an improvement with Mean Difference of 1.333 ±0.4880 (S.D.). with 66.65% change. The statistical analysis showed extremely significant result at p value < 0.0001.

Intergroup comparison was done to assess the comparative efficacy of both groups. When Group A was compared with Group B on symptom ofSandhigraha, the two-tailed p value was 0.0459that was insignificant.

Joint stiffness is feature of JanuSandhigataVata which is caused by Rooksha and SheetaGuna of Vata.

The heat applied through the JanuBasti(retention of oil on knee joint)with ShvadanstraTaila, retention of Taila and UshnaVeerya of Taila along with its Snigdhata decreases the Rooksha and SheetaGuna and reduce the stiffness.  

JanuBasti being successful in relieving the stiffness because of itsSnehanaand Swedana effects simultaneously.Due to its SnehanaGuna, Vata gets pacified and Swedana causes relief inStabdhata, GauravaandSheeta due to its inherent qualities.

Ø Effect of Therapy on Sandhisphutana (Crepitus): -

In Group A, the mean before treatment was 1.929 which improved to 1.714 after treatment. It showed an improvement with Mean Difference of 0.214 ±0.4258 (S.D). with 50% change. The statistical analysis showed insignificant result at p value < 0.2500.

When Group A was compared with Group B on symptom ofSparshasahyata, the two-tailed p value was 0.2154 that was insignificant.Its means there is no statistical difference in the efficacy of both treatments onSparsaasahyata.

Tenderness is advanced stage of pain. Skin is the lodging place for Vata. Thus this can be said that tenderness is felt at different dermatomes when the nerve is compressed. MatraBastiwith ShvadanstraTailahas anti-inflammatory, analgesic properties, due to anti- inflammatory effects of Shvadanstra. It may help in reducing the compression of nerve by reducing inflammation of articular cartilages. Taila soothes the joints and also helps treating levels of synovial fluid making the entire structure lubricated and easy to rotate or to move. Taila improves blood supply to joints and restores integrity of vessels obliterated by spasm of internal damage. Thus reduction of Tenderness was seen in both the groups.

Ø  Effect of Therapy on WOMAC Index Score: -

In Group A, the mean before treatment was 55.21 which improved to 37.14 after treatment. It showed an improvement with Mean Difference of 18.071 ±8.453(S.D). with 32.729 % change. The statistical analysis showed insignificant result at p value < 0.0625.

Intergroup comparison was done to assess the comparative efficacy of both groups. When Group A was compared with Group B on symptom of WOMAC Index Score, the two-tailed p value was 0.8955 that was insignificant.Its means there is no statistical difference in the efficacy of both treatments on WOMAC Index Score.

WOMAC index score includes pain, stiffness and physical function. Percentage of relief in Pain and stiffness was more in Group B than Group A, as discussed above. By improvement in pain and stiffness, the physical function also improves.

Ø Effect of Therapy on X-Ray: - No any significant radiological changes were found after treatment in both groups. May be due to the short course of treatment and follow-up, changes in X-Ray were not found.

Knee joint range of movements

·       Knee Joint Extension -In Group A, the mean before treatment was 11.667 which is same 11.667 after treatment. It showed an improvement with Mean Difference is zero. In group B SD is zero.

·       Knee Joint Flexion- In Group A, the mean before treatment was 104.62 which improved to 116.15 after treatment. It showed an improvement with Mean Difference of 11.538±5.911 (S.D.). with 9.93% change. The statistical analysis showed significant result at p value < 0.0001.

In Group B, the mean before treatment was 109.29 which improved to 119.29 aftertreatment. It showed an improvement with Mean Difference of -9.649±7.95 (S.D.). with9.643% change. The statistical analysis showed significant result at p value < 0.0006.

No any significant changes were found on extension of knee joint after treatment in both groups.Intergroup comparison was done to assess the comparative efficacy of both groups. When Group A was compared with Group B on symptom of range of movements (flexion)the two-tailed p value was 0.1829 & 0.2458 that was insignificant respectively right and left knee joint.These improvement in range of motion might be due to the improvement in other symptoms of the diseases such as pain, stiffness etc. Reduction in Pain, stiffness in turn might have overcome the restriction thus increasing the range of movements at knee joint.
