The Harvard Medical School shows a link between lack of sleep and weight gain. It is one of the risk factors for obesity (along with too much eating…

2001). Underneath the epidermal layer and the basal lamina, followed by a complex wall musculature that surrounds the body. The complex wall muscle is composed of the circular diagonal and muscle fibers (Newmark and Alvarado, 2001). The nervous system contains two ventral nerve cores. The nerve cores are aggregated in the anterior part of the planarian to form the cerebral ganglia that are connected to two ventral longitudinal nerve cords, which are interconnected with the lateral commissures,…

Meningitis and torticollis are two homeostatic imbalances that affect the human body. This essay will give background information, treatments, signs and symptoms, and their connections to the specific systems they affect. Meningitis is the swelling of the meninges due to bacterial infections. It can cause things like convulsions, delirium, and in worst case scenarios death. With an early checkup and diagnosis, some modern medicine, and cautionary measures, the death rate stands in between 5…

The heart is one of the major organs in the body that is essential. The heart is considered a pump that helps the blood flow, continuously, throughout the body. The heart is located under the rib cage, between the lungs, and more on the left side of the breastbone. It has two major coronary arteries, electrical impulses, four chambers, and four valves to help the blood flow one way. Deoxygenated blood enters the right atrium from the superior and inferior vena cava. When the right atrium…

ALS Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis is a progressive disorder that is inherited or acquired. It affects motor neurons. Motor neurons are cells that are in the brain, brain stem and spinal cord and their function is to carry an electrical signal to a muscle and trigger it to contract or relax. Medical terminology, a means without, my is muscle and trophic is nourishment. Lateral is pertaining to the side/direction that is affected and sclerosis is an abnormal condition of hardening. It was…

Rheumatoid arthritis is categorized as autoimmune and chronic progressive disease. Our immune system is a complex and dynamic organization of cells and antibodies functioned to find out and destroy organisms and substances which harm us, such as infections. Autoimmune disease means by our immune system starts attacking our own body, mistaking body tissues as foreign invader. In this case, immune system mistakenly attacked the joints and cause stiffness and inflammation to the connective tissue…

body is a complex system of cells, tissues, and organs working together to form systems. There are twelve systems total in the human body and they are: Integumentary, Skeletal, Muscular, Immune, Lymphatic, Cardiovascular, Urinary, Digestive, Respiratory, Nervous, Endocrine, and Reproductive Systems. All the systems are important to the body to function as a whole. If one system is not working correctly, then results are fatal to that person. I believe that the most important systems are the…

Primary diagnosis: Erdheim-Chester disease. Secondary diagnosis: Other diseases of the circulatory system. The claimant was a 51-year-old woman. Alleged disability: “erdheim-chester disease, sjorgen’s syndrome, rheumatoid arthritis, diabetes insipidus, pituitary glands, high blood pressure.” She reported pain and fatigue. Because of the rare complications from her illnesses caused many complication s, therefore, she had medical follow-up visits in another town every 28 days. For every…

Chronic nonbacterial osteomyelitis is an inflammatory disease of the musculoskeletal system, which mainly affects long bones, but has been known to appear anywhere in the skeleton. Other body systems, including the digestive system and respiratory system are sometimes affected by the disease, even though it begins with the skeletal system. CNO is closely related to SAPHO syndrome in adults. It is diagnosed by MRI, clinical reports of symptoms, and other analyses since there are no standard…

with fresh O2 and then moves out of the lungs via pulmonary veins and moves out of the other chambers of the heart and to the body and once again completes the cycle. It stands to reason that due to the short distance of a trip through the pulmonary system pressure in the lungs would be less than arterial pressure. So imagine if you will that the pathways in the lungs were narrowed and the pressure increased. The right ventricle (which is responsible for moving blood into the lungs) would have…
