Wilson disease is a recessive inherited disorder. It occurs at birth, but symptoms of the disease do not appear till the ages of 6 through 40 and is caused by a large accumulation of copper in the body. An indication of the disease is a deep copper colored ring around the edge of cornea and the most common medical consequences of Wilson disease is liver disease because the liver is what eliminates the absorbed copper when we consume food and turns it into bile so the copper levels in our body remain leveled. When the copper is not eliminated by the liver and is accumulated in our bodies instead, it becomes life threatening to our body and begins to affect our entire system. Wilson Disease is a treatable disease, but has to be done at an early…

Soon after, three more young female patients, each with similar symptoms to those of Susannah’s were referred to Dalmau; all had teratomas and all suffered behavioral and personality transformations that deteriorated into destructive neurological damage. Suspecting that the teratomas played a critical role in this unfolding medical discovery, doctors removed the teratomas and administered immune-suppressing medication, resulting in the rapid recovery of three out of the four women (Braverman 3). However, they still had to discover the source of the problem. In Dalmau’s lab, researchers exposed rat brains to the patients’ spinal fluid. Bingo.…
The correct answer is C Osteitis Deformans (also known as Paget’s disease). Paget's is caused by the excessive breakdown and formation of bone, followed by disorganized bone remodeling. This causes affected bone to weaken, resulting in pain, misshapen bones, fractures and arthritis in the joints near the affected bones. An elevated level of alkaline phosphatase in the blood in combination with normal calcium, phosphate, and aminotransferase levels in an elderly patient are suggestive of Paget's disease. Here calcium level is within normal range which is 2 - 2.6mmol/l. Adult rickets(C) also known as Osteomalacia.…
It was determined that the average age that a person is typically diagnosed is between 5 years of age. Since the disease is known to alter the ability to walk, many of those diagnosed up end up using a wheel chair. It was shared that 90% (9 in 10) of males will report to using a wheel chair from the aged of 15 to 24, 82% (8 in 10) will be in a wheel chair by the age of 14, and the disability will not be severe enough from the child to be in a chair from the ages 5 to nine with only 29%, 3 in of 10 of males using a wheel chair during that age. Because the disease can…

A 27-year-old electrician is describing symptoms that do not meet the full criteria for any of the disorders in the anxiety disorders diagnostic class of the Diagnostic Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (5th ed. ; DSM-5; American Psychiatric Association [APA], 2013); therefore, a diagnosis of other specified anxiety disorder is appropriate. However, it should be noted that the symptoms described are highly characteristic of generalized anxiety disorder (GAD) and meet 5 out of the 6 criteria for GAD. More information or further development is needed to determine if the client has GAD. For one, the client claims that he has many worries—e.g., worries that involve the health of his parents and his social approval level at work.…

In life, we will sooner or later be thrown a curveball. Some of us will miss by a mile, some of us will miss just barely, and some of us will get a hit. There is one commonality: unexpected circumstances remind us to expect the unexpected out of life. Typically, a rising PSA is the first sign, coming well before any clinical signs or symptoms.…
