The signs and symptoms that people with type 2 diabetes could experience could include yeast infections, lower extremity paresthesias, polyuria, polydipsia, polyphagia, blurred vision, fatigue,…

Uncontrolled diabetes can put a person under a…

Niemann-Pick Disease Niemann-Pick disease (NP) is an inherited metabolic disorder. With it, harmful amounts of a fatty substance build up in the spleen, liver, lungs, bone marrow, and, in some people, the brain. The disease is subdivided into 4 related types. • In types A and B, there is not enough activity of an enzyme called sphingomyelinase. This causes the build up of toxic amounts of sphingomyelin. That is a fatty substance present in every cell of the body. • Type A, Infantile NP is…
