A research on ''vatarakta'' concluded that the notion of ''margavarana'' (obstruction in pathway) can be correlated to the pathology of atherosclerosis, and the state of ''uttana vatarakta'' to that of peripheral arterial disease. Identical therapeutic efficacy of ''kaishora guggulu'' and ''amrita guggulu'' was observed in thirty patients of ''uttana vatarakta''.

Another study was carried out to evaluate the antioxidant effect of five ''kashayams'' (''kwaths'' - decoctions) ''manjishtadi kashayam'' (MK), ''rasna erandadi kashayam'' (REK),  ''sahacharadhi kashayam'' (SK), ''maharasnadi'' (or ''rasna dwiguna bhagam'') ''kashayam'' (MRK) and ''dhanwantharam kashayam'' (DK) used in the management of diseases manifested due to vitiation of ''vata'' and ''vatarakta'' (mostly diseases of connective tissues, bones, joints and nervous system). It concluded that the total phenolic content and the antioxidant property of the products justify the protective and corrective effects produced by the products in ''vata'' and ''vatarakta'' disorders. The phenolic content is highest in MK, followed by DK. The phenolic content of MRK, SK and REK are comparable.  This shows the formulations act by scavenging the free radicals in rheumatic diseases.
