  • Leonotis nepetifolia (L.) R. Br, commonly called dagga, klip dagga, or lion's ear, has been used to effectively treat various diseases and other health problems for a long time because of its antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and analgesic activities. Several studies have attributed these biological activities to L. nepetifolia's constituent secondary metabolites, such as alkaloids, phenolics, flavonoids, tannins, steroids, glycosides, coumarins, anthocyanins, and saponins. This review aims to examine the evidence-based ethnopharmacological uses of L. nepetifolia in the treatment of bronchial asthma, diarrhea, skin diseases, malaria, burns, cancer, diabetes mellitus, and rheumatism. However, although L. nepetifolia has great potential to treat these diseases, further isolation and identification of its therapeutic phytochemical constituents are required. In addition, the performance of its extracts and phytochemicals should be thoroughly tested in preclinical and clinical trials in order to ascertain their safety and efficacy, which will prove valuable in developing new medicines.

  • Low-dose radiotherapy has been known to have anti-inflammatory activity and been used for treatment of pneumonia together with anti-serum and sulfanilamide. However, it rapidly discontinued after the development of various antibiotics showing outstanding effect. Recently, it was re-considered to treat COVID-19 which has very limited treatment such as remdesivir and dexamethasone. So, several studies of COVID-19 therapy using low-dose radiation were reported very recently. They showed that low-dose radiation of 0.5~1.5 Gy were useful for decreasing the oxygen consumption and hospitalization period of COVID-19 patients without adverse reaction. Radiopharmaceuticals such as [99mTc]Tc-macroaggregated albumin (MAA) also might be used for low-dose radiotherapy. Administration of vitamin D having anti-inflammatory effect would also be helpful for therapy with synergistic effect.

  • Lower extremity deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a serious medical condition that can result in local pain and gait disturbance. DVT progression can also lead to death or major disability as a result of pulmonary embolism, postthrombotic syndrome, or limb amputation. However, early thrombus removal can rapidly relieve symptoms and prevent disease progression. Various endovascular procedures have been developed in the recent years to treat DVT, and endovascular treatment has been established as one of the major therapeutic methods to treat lower extremity DVT. However, the treatment of lower extremity DVT varies according to the disease duration, location of affected vessels, and the presence of symptoms. This article reviews and discusses effective endovascular treatment methods for lower extremity DVT.
