The larynx’s main function is to provide airway, protect thr bronchial tree and to allow phonation. When there are growths that develop on the structure, the function is compromised. Laryngeal Cancer is characterized as a disease where masses, cancer cells, begin to accumulate in the larynx. Laryngeal Cancer is a very rare type of cancer, according to cancerresearchuk, approximately twenty-four thousand of patients are diagnosed with Laryngeal Cancer in a year, which is relatively two to five…

(BPH) occurs when the prostate gland becomes larger than the normal adult size (Rodway & McCance, 2014). The enlargement occurs within the transition zone of the prostate by an uncontrolled cellular proliferation of the smooth muscle, glandular epithelium, and connective tissue (Patel & Parsons, 2014). This enlargement is thought to occur due to endocrine factors and androgens in the body’s circulation and…

from cow. There are some differences, every アントシアニン has effect that activates cGMP-PDE. Third reason is that アントシアニン has anti-oxidant action and prevent our eyes from aging. As we grow older, リボフスチン(It’s age pigment)is stored in retinal pigment epithelium. The pigment easily prodecus radical by low-wavelength light. It is said that radical hurts retina. アントシアニン can prevent リボフスチン from being oxidized. Please look at this…

Oral/nasal cavity- The nasal cavity is the primary intake for air for the respiratory system, consisting of cartilage, muscle and bone. It allows for inhalation of air into the body and warms the air as it enters filtering the air by removing dust, pollen, and other contaminants, purifying the air before it is passed to the inner body. The secondary exterior opening is the oral cavity, it allows for larger quantities of air inhalation, it also has less distance to travel allowing more air to…

One of the very first symptoms that was listed is something called drusen. As the article “Age-related Macular Degeneration” says, “drusen (bumps) are very common in the elderly and they appear as yellow deposits either under the pigment epithelium, or may be prominently found in or around the macula” (n.pag.). I understood this to mean that the eye basically makes more eye crumbs than usual, but they can be bigger and more painful. There are also symptoms that have to do with changes in central…

Introduction The gastrointestinal tract (GI) comprises of the oral cavity, esophagus, stomach, small intestine, large intestine, rectum, and the anus. Also, digestion process start from the mouth; the ingestion of food stimulate the salivary secretion (mouth), the food is chewed before its passage through the esophagus down to the stomach where mechanical and chemical digestion takes place. Pepsinogen from the chief cells helps with the digestion of protein, amylase from the saliva and…

Bronchiectasis Description Bronchiectasis is a lung condition in which there is stretching and enlargement of bronchial tubes (airways) of the lungs. It is permanent abnormal dilatation of one or more bronchi/ bronchiole due to destruction of ciliated epithelium, elastic and muscular tissue. The destructive process may be initiated by primary microbial infection (necrotizing pneumonia, tuberculosis, aspergillosis, etc.) or obstruction (foreign body, tumour, lymph node, etc.) resulting in stasis…

has been divided into three types. Ref gass e ref freunf Type 1 and 2 neovascularization arise from the choroidal circulation and are refered to as choroidal neovascularization (CNV). Type 1 neovascularization exists beneath the Retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) while type is found between the retina and RPE, as described by Gass in 1994. More recently, Freund et al. proposed a type 3 CNV for cases of intraretinal location…

Neutrophils are a part of the innate immune system which provides a quick responders to the site of injury and inflammation. When there is an injury to mast cells, they release chemical messengers such as histamine and cytokines. Histamine signals vascular permeability and vasodilation, which allows leakage of blood components intended to fight infection and initiate healing. Cytokines are nonspecific chemical messengers which alert uninjured cells that an injury has occurred. Chemokines are…

Introduction Celiac disease is not considered a food allergy1 but rather considered an autoimmune disorder that will affect the villi which can cause malabsorption in the gastrointestinal tract.2 In general, the villi will help absorb the nutrients from the food. When eating gluten, the villi in the small intestine will become inflamed. When the villi are not working properly nutrient deficiencies will be a result which is also malabsorption.1 Gluten is in a lot of foods that athletes eat when…
