PAS_1	Cryptolepis buchanani (Ganglong, family Asclepiadaceae) is a climbing tree widely used in folk medicine in Southeast Asia. Also its root, stem, and leaves are used for the treatment of bone fracture by tribal people in Arunachal Pradesh. It shows antibacterial, analgesic, anti-inflammatory, and chondroprotective activities. Cissus quadrangularis (Harjor, family Vitaceae) has been known for its bone healing properties for many centuries (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5512407/#:~:text=Acacia%20arabica%20(Babool%2C%20family%20Mimosaceae,dislocation%20of%20bones%20stiff%20joint.)

Disease Description	A bone fracture is a medical condition in which there is a partial or complete break in the continuity of the bone. In more severe cases, the bone may be broken into several pieces. A bone fracture may be the result of high force impact or stress, or a minimal trauma injury as a result of certain medical conditions that weaken the bones, such as osteoporosis, osteopenia, bone cancer, or osteogenesis imperfecta, where the fracture is then properly termed a pathologic fracture.
