dehadaurgandhya (10.10–13), vahnidagdha (11.106–119), munnatākhyaroga (12.79–82), sūryasaṃkrāntivisphoṭa (13.129–139), snāyuroga (13.133–139), and śītalā (13.140–158). Only a restricted number of the kṣudrarogas described by Mādhava is dealt with by Śaṃkara; the same applies to the eye diseases. The diseases called somaroga and phiraṅgaroga are absent. Much of the nidāna material seems to consist of free renderings of verses forming part of the Mādhavanidāna and borrowings from it, but other sources were evidently also utilized. Chapter sixteen is concerned with various general subjects: disorders by the drinking of polluted water (1–2), vājīkaraṇa (4–16), jalayoga (17–21), 310 vamana and virecana (22–43), technical terms (44–54), medicinal preparations (55–128), weights and measures (129–138), technical terms again (167–177), etc.
