Drug is a substance that is used for diagnosis, cure, treatment, mitigation or prevention of disease. It is either a natural product, pharmaceutical preparation or chemical substance. Anti-inflammatory drugs are used for treating inflammation which is characterized by four cardinal signs: redness, pain, swelling and warmth. Most of anti-inflammatory drugs work by inhibiting prostaglandins secretion. Prostaglandins are the chemicals that responsible for promoting inflammation, fever and pain.…

planktonic bacteria attach to host proteins. These irreversible attachments signal the bacteria to create a biofilm. More and more bacteria anchor themselves permanently using cell adhesion structures such as pili and receptors called epitopes. This encourages bacterial multiplication and provides convenient sites for adhesion. The bacteria secrete an extracellular slimy substance comprised of proteins, polysaccharides, and nucleic acids to build the protective matrix biofilm structure. The…

Atherosclerosis: Atherosclerosis is a disease in which plaque builds up inside your arteries. Arteries are blood vessels that carry oxygen-rich blood to your heart and other parts of your body. Plaque is made up of fat, cholesterol, calcium, and other substances found in the blood. Over time, plaque hardens and narrows your arteries, reducing blood flow to your organs (such as your heart) and other parts of your body. This can lead to serious problems, including heart attack, stroke, or even…

MITRAL STENOSIS Mitral stenosis is the narrowing of inlet valve into the left ventricle leading to an obstruction of inflow of blood from left atrium to the left ventricle during diastole. HEMODYNAMICS: Fibrosis of mitral ring, commissural adhesions and contracture of valve leaflets result in mitral stenosis. Due to the obstruction caused by the mitral stenosis left atrial pressure increases, which results in hypertrophy of left atrium. Increased left atrial pressurein turn increases pulmonary…

Before the inflammation stage, bleeding needs to occur. The muscle tissue is destroyed through a direct or indirect cause to the muscle. Blood is initially released into the area due to ruptured blood vessels. Inflammation is the bodys defensive system in response to an injury, it is a non-specific response (Hertel, 1997) that will prepare the wound for healing. This phase will happen a few hours post injury (After the bleeding phase has ended) (Watson, 2012). The inflammation stage can be…

Myofascial Release (MFR) is a type of physical therapy that primarily takes place during health care massage. Through case study it has been proven to treat skeletal muscle immobility and pain. To completely understand the treatment of MFR one must be able to define Fascia. Fascia is generally thin, with qualities of being tough and elastic. It is a type of connective tissue that wraps most structures in the human body, including muscles, bones, nerves, and organs. It holds your organs to your…

In order to be an exemplary leader the authors, Kouzes and Posner, (2012), describe five practices that need to be implemented. Each practice defines leadership and what a leader should strive to perfect in being successful. To model the way shares the same concept of practicing what you preach, (Kouzes and Posner, 2012). If you want your subordinates to have a strong work ethic a leader must practice the same, by setting the example in order for others to follow, (Kouzes and Posner, 2012). As a…

To promote inclusion of persons identifying as transgender, the Queensland Government developed the Queensland Public Sector LGBTIQ Inclusion Strategy. The policy was designed to promote inclusion and diversity of the LGBTIQ community in the largest Queensland workplace, the public sector (Queensland Government, 2017). The policy shows promising attributes when stating it will work towards providing sector wide membership to Pride in Diversity to allow access to resources, professional training…

inflammation of the intestines, especially the colon, that often causes severe diarrhea with blood or mucus in the feces. Impurity is the quality or condition of being impure. particle is a minute fragment or quantity of matter. Adsorption is the adhesion of atoms, ions, or molecules from a gas, liquid, or dissolved solid to a surface. This process creates a film of the adsorbate on the surface of the adsorbent. pathogen or infectious agent is a biological agent that causes disease…

promote polymerization of F-actin. Also, Rho A inhibits cofilin and promotes prolifin and polymerization. On the other hand, RHO V promotes cofilin aiding to depolymerization by protecting them from being inhibited. Different molecules like neural cell adhesion molecules (N-CAMs), L1 CAMs and N-Cadherin are major proteins that mediates correct axonal navigation by eliciting intracellular signaling within the…
