September 2023 edit

  Please do not insert fringe or undue weight content into articles, as you did to Withania somnifera. An article should not give undue weight to any aspects of the subject but should strive to treat each aspect with a weight appropriate to its significance to the subject. Please use the article's talk page to discuss the material and its appropriate weight within the article. Anything from Ayurveda is quackery nonsense. Please keep this out of the encyclopedia. Zefr (talk) 21:46, 30 September 2023 (UTC)Reply

I am shocked to hear that your reasoning here is "Anything from Ayurveda is quackery nonsense.". Ayurveda was not cited as a source, clinical data was. Plants and the therapeutic effects they may produce do not have cultural allegiances. This plant happens to possess well documented stress and anxiety reducing effects in humans rooted in evidence-based medicine.
Substantiate your claim with evidence to the contrary, or rescind your stance. What you have presented is a gross generalisation with culturally elitist undertones.
I urge you to familiarize yourself with the research which overwhelmingly supports the validity of Ashwaghanda's cortisol, stress, and anxiety reducing effects in humans:
Ashwaghanda reduces ratings of stress in humans: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3573577/
https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/34858513/
https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/31517876/
Ashwaghanda reduces cortisol levels in humans:
https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC6750292/
https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0975947621001558
Ashwaghanda reduces anxiety ratings in humans:
https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/36017529/
https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC6979308/
https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0975947621001558
Many of these studies and other research papers were cited in the original review sourced in my edit. I avoided individually citing each source to avoid excessive citations, but I have now done so. Although the citations are effectively the same, they no longer contain the prohibited "Ayurveda" in their titles. Oro Temp (talk) 18:20, 1 October 2023 (UTC)Reply
All these citations are preliminary (primary) research, unconfirmed by sufficient research and not acknowledged in any high-quality review published in a reputable clinical journal or medical textbook.
Evidently, you have not read WP:MEDRS. There are no clinical organizations, no national regulatory agencies, and no MEDRS reviews that support the use of W. somnifera for any of these effects. Wikipedia is not a journal for recording vague primary studies, WP:NOTJOURNAL #6-8, but rather is an encyclopedia for stating the best-supported facts for medical content. See also WP:WHYMEDRS. Zefr (talk) 19:16, 1 October 2023 (UTC)Reply
I agree with the notion that primary sources should not be presented when secondary sources are available. This is why I found it odd when my original edit, which cited a systematic review, was reverted because "Anything from Ayurveda is quackery nonsense." . According to the MEDRS, this does not correspond to the guideline of "Respecting secondary sources". If you wish to cite the impact factor in your response, please note that there are several reviews from journals with respectable impact factors which in any other circumstance abide by MEDRS:
Journal of Functional Morphology: 2.67
Phytotherapy Research: 6.338
PLOS ONE: 3.752
(the reviews are linked)
The findings of these secondary sources clearly state that there is moderate quality evidence with low-moderate risk of bias supporting Ashwagandha's efficacy in reducing perceived stress markers, cortisol, and anxiety alongside improvements physical performance. This research can easily be cited within the article with an added caveat stating that "the evidence is of moderate quality and further research is needed to confirm these effects" as is done in every other medical Wikipedia page. Nobody is proposing that the page be a storefront for Ashwagandha supplements in the interest of big Ayurveda.
The evidence supporting Ashwagandha's effects is past the point at which it should be gatekept from a Wikipedia article provided proper disclaimer is present. "Wikipedia is an encyclopedia for stating the best-supported facts", what I and many others have presented ARE "the best-supported facts".
I will echo some points fellow editors have made on the talk page of Withania somnifera:
"I would like to know exactly which sources are considered to be "quackery" associated with "Ayurvedic journals". This herb has been extensively researched, and it is a disservice to the community not to publish some of this research. While it is appropriate to include the limitations of this research, it is not appropriate to refuse to allow legitimate secondary sources and the conclusions of their authors."
"'Conclusive evidence' is evidence which cannot be contradicted by other evidence. Given that scientific progress in empirical fields relies on falsifiability (read Karl Popper), there will NEVER be conclusive evidence on this topic... We must instead make an assessment on whether there is a preponderance of evidence in favour of a specific conclusion." Oro Temp (talk) 22:43, 1 October 2023 (UTC)Reply
Please present here or the article talk page what you feel are WP:MEDRS-compliant reviews, national clinical guidelines or government sources showing substantial scientific consensus in support of any of your claims above, WP:MEDSCI and WP:MEDASSESS. Zefr (talk) 23:20, 1 October 2023 (UTC)Reply

HGH Fragment 176–191 vs AOD9604 edit

There is indeed a mess here! I'm trying to clarify the identity of each of these. Cited ref PMC 9249349 says "A C-terminal hGH fragment 176–191 with a tyrosine to phenylalanine substitution at the last position has been reported to enhance lipid breakdown and fat utilization in mice" but cited ref PMC 11713213 says "AOD9604, a synthetic fragment of hGH consisting of the amino acid residues 177–191 with the addition of a tyrosine residue to the N-terminus". So I'm confused. Which one is Phe176 and which one is Tyr176? DMacks (talk) 09:34, 26 December 2023 (UTC)Reply

I got info for AOD9604 from Pubchem. Suggests that the fragment would be H-Tyr-Leu-Arg-Ile-Val-Gln-Cys(1)-Arg-Ser-Val-Glu-Gly-Ser-Cys(1)-Gly-Tyr-OH. But I see no reference on this. Graeme Bartlett (talk) 10:34, 26 December 2023 (UTC)Reply
