Motor neurone disease

An inheritance disorder also known as genetic disorder, is an inherited medical condition caused by a DNA abnormality. Sometimes physicians are not able to label a disease, because it is unknown, and so they call it an undiagnosed disorder. These disorders vary from all sorts of genetic genes from your siblings. Genetic disorders can be caused by a mutation by one gene, multiple genes, or by the combinations of gene and environmental factors. Some disorders are inherited by a parent or are…

This is known as a genetic disease that usually occurs in 1 out of 10000. This disease is known to affect the growing ends of bones. This disease will prevent ossification which is a process in which bones elongate because of the deposition of cartilage. This disease is also known by the name Fairbank’s disease. Introduction During the whole course of the report we will see all the major causes of Fairbanks disease. We will explore how the disease actually works in the body and look into all…

Leukemia does not show obvious symptoms early on, however it shows certain unusual symptoms which need further diagnoses. Leukemia detection test involves many diagnostic methods such as blood test, bone marrow test, cytogenetic analysis, immunophenotyping, polymerase chain reaction (PCR), immunoglobulin test, fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH), and G-banding karyotyping. The evaluation of these this diagnostic test takes place in the laboratory to determine the treatment plan for the…

These facilities help the patient and family learn about the disease and work together to decide the best plan of action to treat it. Sometimes that treatment is aggressive while other times it's simply making the patient more comfortable. All possible options are available when treated in this type of facility. Simplicity…

If I had a choice between the two diseases I would choose Alzheimer’s and here is my rationale for choosing this disease. Huntington’s disease is an inherited progressive…

solutions in the aim to cure Tay-Sachs disease. This includes exploring the achievements attained and challenges facing the medical researchers and clinical scientists involved in this field. Further to this, I will be investigating the genetic causes of Tay-Sachs disease, the symptoms and progression of the disease and how it is tested for. Introduction to Tay-Sachs Disease Tay-Sachs disease is a relatively…

cervical motion tenderness. However, some patients may have a completely normal examination and without a fever. This patient denies lower uterine discomfort and does not have cervical motion tenderness. She does not have a history of sexual transmitted diseases and her LPS was normal. This diagnosis is unlikely because other than spotting irregularly during cycle and after intercourse, her symptoms are not consistent with this…

causes of death in the United states is Coronary Heart Disease (CHD). The disease can lead to severe health conditions and is one of the main reasons that the cost of health care keeps rising. Not only is CHD a big problem here in America, but it is also making it’s appearance around the world. A prevention for this disease is crucial and should not be taken lightly any longer. The “nonmodifiable” (cannot be changed) risk factors of this disease is how old you are, gender, and the past family…

000 deaths are recorded each year due to CVDs. An average of 425 individuals suffer from CVDs and death occurs once every three minutes (British Heart Foundation, 2015). On the other hand, respiratory disorders such as chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and asthma had taken lesser amount of victims each year. Globally, less than 3 million people are…
