Angina Overview I have chosen this condition to investigate because I find it an interesting one, and one that I rarely hear about. Everyone has a heart, a muscular organ that pumps blood throughout our bodies through veins, arteries and capillaries. These blood vessels supply our other major organs and tissue with oxygen and carries away the carbon dioxide and waste.

amounts in the liver and blood. Which cases do we need L-carnitine? • Obesity: it acts as a transporter to transfer long chain fatty acids into the cell to be oxidized to produce energy, it is safe in diabetes, cardiovascular diseases and females with polycystic ovarian syndrome, its dose ranges from 500 to 2000 mg/day. • Body building: increases muscle mass. • Male infertility: increase sperm count and improves quality of sperms. • Heart failure, angina and reduces blood pressure and the…

virus (12). Nipah Virus can replicate very easily in human lung fibroblasts. It can infect the surrounding cells by either cell-to-cell spread or through release of infectious particles. When monocytes get infected, they can transmigrate through the blood brain barrier to infect the brain. This could be plausible if the monocytes were inefficient in early clearance of the virus. Nipah virus can also infect neuronal cells but cannot spread viral infection (13). Pathogenicity: In humans, Nipah…

heart rate at birth was 65 beats / minute (Figures 1). Post-delivery at NICU, the newborn was intubated duo to respiratory distress and extubated after about 48 hours and got stable with heart rate of 65 beats / minute. Biochemical tests and atrial blood gas (ABG) evaluation were in normal range. Echocardiography did not reveal any Cardiac structural abnormalities such as congenitally corrected transposition of the great arteries (CCTGA), Ebstein anomaly, left isomerism with the heart defect and…

The great supplement that you have never heard about: Krill oil Krill oil comes from Krill, tiny shrimp like creatures that come from the Atlantic or Pacific oceans. Krill oil confers some dietary eicosapentanoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) (Omega-3 contents), the two fatty acids that are the active components of fish oil, both have the similar content of DHA but krill oil tends to have higher EPA content and Krill oil might be absorbed in the body better than fish oil.
