Muscular dystrophy

elevated isoenzymes (myocardial cells). Enzymes are the proteins that aid to the body. Mr. Canton’s isoenzymes are elevated caused by the damage to his heart muscle. CK-MB generally rises after a heart attack, inflammation of the heart muscle, muscular dystrophy, and other problems related to the heart. (University of Rochester Medical Center) One of the main reasons leading to a myocardial infarction is by atherosclerotic plaque buildup caused by a disruption in the blood flow of the heart. As…

The feelings we grow as we are happy, loved, sad, angry, and scared, are emotions that make us human, and impact our lives, how we live day to day and our mental health. Our…

Stem cells are unspecialized cells from which various cells can be created. They sit at the base of a developing cell formation. In addition, in many tissues serve as an internal repair system, stem cells divide nonstop in order to replenish other cells throughout the persons’ lifetime. When a stem cell divides, each new cell may either remain a stem cell or become another type of cell with a more specialized function, thus they are a tremendously serious matter, not just in the USA, but all…

However, when she was tested for these conditions and illnesses, her results came back negative but was still seen a wheelchair, with an oxygen…

Stem Cell Research Paper: Human Embryonic Stem Cells or (hESCs) Human Embryonic Stem Cells or (hESCs) are taken from human embryos, however these embryos are not normal ones. The (hESC) are embryos that were fertilized in a process known as in vitro fertilization. In vitro fertilization is usually done in a clinic of some sort and are then given to researchers for research with permission from the people who have donated.

Isaiah Juarez(current research) There are many different uses for stem cells, and different stem cells which can do things other stem cells can and can do. There are two main stem cells, and they the embryonic stem cells, and adult stem cells. However there ae about another dozen more stem cells which are also important to the human body. These other stem cells are tissue stem cells, blood stem cells, skin stem cells, Mesenchymal stem cells, stem cells in the eye, induced plum stem cells,…

It has been long stated that the body has the amazing ability to heal and repair itself. When said, it was in relation to minor cuts, bruises and abrasions, but perhaps this thinking limits the body’s ability. Perhaps the body does have this self-repairing ability, but on a much larger scale, such as the ability to repair larger organs such as the heart, lungs, or bigger things. Well, these studies are currently being reviewed and tested, it is actually a scientific study called Tissue…

My mother ankylosing spondylitis and has had three joint replacements. I have had four rounds of physical therapy myself. I know what it is like to be the patient, and to have a loved one receive care. These experiences, in part, informed my decision to become a physical therapist. When providing…
