Cardiovascular system

approved by the FDA. It is mainly used for the treatment of osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, and familial adenomatous polyposis. Celecoxib was primarily designed to decrease the risk of adverse gastrointestinal effects, but several reports of cardiovascular events expressed concerns about its use. Celecoxib has a moderate absorption rate, and peak absorption is observed after approximately two to four hours. The observed high distribution volume is a result of its low affinity for proteins.…

Image 10 compact bone tissue In an image, 10 compact bone tissues give support and structure to the body and permit movement. It also stores calcium and has blood-shaping cells. 2] It consists of osteons and Haversian system. The osteons has a canal which is encompassed by concentric rings of matrix. 1] There are four main types of tissues; epithelium, connective, nervous and muscle, inside of every tissue type, there are varieties present. In image 1, 2 and 3 are of epithelium tissues that…

The digestive system is a group of organs that work together in order to break down food and convert it to energy and nutrients that can be used by the body. The circulatory system, also known as the cardiovascular system, contains a group of organs that work together to circulate blood and transports nutrients, carbon dioxide, and oxygen around the body. The respiratory system is a group of organs that allows organisms to breathe, also called respiration. It is a system that is responsible…

treatment of metastatic disease); besides, it is also widely used in therapy of metastatic breast cancer. Myocardial infarction is a rare adverse effect related to capecitabine therapy. We present case report of a female patient with no history of cardiovascular disease who developed transmural myocardial infarction during capecitabine therapy. Case report In February 2012, a 59-year-old female patient was referred to the internal medicine emergency department after five days of…

compared to patients with cardiovascular diseases. This experiment of six months does prove the effects of zero gravity on the body but it can’t tell us how much worse the effects will be over twenty-four months (http://www.nasa.gov/mission_pages/station/research/experiments/509.html). On Earth, the cardiovascular system works against gravity to circulate fluids through the body preventing blood from pooling in the legs. When in zero gravity, the cardiovascular system can’t work as hard and…

One of the other types of stress is Episodic Acute Stress. When acute stress starts to happen, more often it is called episodic acute stress. People who always seem to have a continuous crisis in their life seem to have episodic acute stress. People that tend suffer from this always seem to be in a rush, they take too much on and tend not to be able to organize themselves to deal with demands and pressures. People who have Episodic Acute stress are often short-tempered, irritable, and anxious.…

Graves Disease is a condition within the immune system that appears as a result of the thyroid gland producing an overabundance of hormones. Deception occurs within the immune system of our body, eliciting a release of false, abnormal antibodies that are trying to imitate the normal chemical thyroid-stimulating hormone, TSH, by latching to the thyroid hormone receptor, TSHR, on the epithelial cells of the thyroid gland (Jin, Lawless, Sehgal, & Mchenry, 2012). This latching produces a plethora of…

definition, stress is any uncomfortable "emotional experience accompanied by predictable biochemical, physiological and behavioral changes." (Baum, 1990) In some situation, stress can be benefited for people. However, the immune, cardiovascular, neuroendocrine and central nervous systems may be affected with an excessive amount of stress. (Anderson, 1998)…

Antioxidants play an important role in prevention of cardiovascular diseases. Numerous epidemiological and clinical studies showed that higher consumption of dietary fibers can lower the chances of cardiovascular diseases due to their effects on LDL-cholesterol [6]. Toxic effect We have to be cautious when cooking kidney beans and should wash them thoroughly because when they are…

(PVD) Normally, as the heart contracts, it is able to exert a pressure that drives blood throughout the cardiovascular system and allows for perfusion as well as gas and nutrient exchange to take place. This blood flow is typically described by the equation Q=P/R, where Q represents blood flow, P is the pressure gradient, and R stands for total peripheral resistance.1 In a well-functioning system, a general balance is maintained between the pressure and resistance, which allows blood to reach…
