Abstract: Polyarteritis nodosa (PAN) is a disease of unknown origin that affects the medium and small arteries of any organ. Isolated polyarteritis nodosa is a rare condition that may be triggered by local exposure to certain agents capable of provoking local immune stimulation without a systemic immune reaction. Symptomatic PAN confined to the testis is extremely rare. We report a case of isolated testicular PAN in hepatitis B infection with chronic unilateral testicular pain and successfully…
favorable maternal outcome of preeclampsia is reversed in case of liver involvement (12). HELLP syndrome is signified as the risky evolution of preeclampsia, titled with (H) for hemolysis, (EL) for elevated liver functions tests, and (LP) for low platelet counts (13). However the essential clinicolaboratory correspondence between HELLP syndrome and AFLP carries a considerable diagnostic difficulty. A debatable interconnections between the three pregnancy related disorders, had demonstrated…
personal consciences. Some who bear religious beliefs may be against blood transfusion. In the past years, doctors used whole blood, however, in the recent years, only specific components of blood like plasma, clotting factors, blood cells and platelets are used in transfusion. This is because an excessive quantity of plasma in the circulatory system can lead to transfusion associated circulatory overload. Your blood type and rhesus factor also contributes greatly to your capability of…
with oxygen, energy and regulates body’s ph. and temperature. It contains three types of cell, red blood cell, which is packed with a pigment called haemoglobin and iron-containing protein molecules that transport the oxygen, white blood cell and platelets. Blood vessels are the tubular structure that transports the blood to the tissues and cells, consisting of arteries, veins and capillaries. Arteries have thicker walls since they have to withstand the vigorous pressure of blood being pumped…

This definition does not do the stem cell justice. Stem cells are cells that have yet to develop a purpose. They are used in various tissues and organs throughout the body to repair and replace cells that can no longer preform their function properly. The term stem cell was first used in 1868 by biologist Ernst Haeckel. He was using the term to describe a fertilized egg that becomes an organism. This is the basis of what an actual stem cell is, one type of cell that becomes another. The next…
Neurological Factors Affecting Movement Voluntary human movement is regulated and controlled by complex interactions within our central and peripheral nervous systems. The three major types of sensory input come from the visual (eyes), vestibular (inner ear), and somatic (body) sensory systems. The somatic sensory receptors found in muscles, tendons, ligaments, joint capsules, and skin are collectively known as proprioceptors and they gather information about body position and the direction and…
Primary endpoints are the most important aspect of the clinical trials that help determine their relevance in regards to research and development. It is the outcome by which the effectiveness of treatments in a clinical trial is evaluated. Because of its importance, it is essential for primary endpoints to be concisely and carefully specified to ensure that the results will be accurate and accepted in the scientific community. They must possess important characteristics that ensure qualitative…
