The Parkinson is a disease that make Causes damage to the brain For lack of a neurotransmitter that is called dopamine and they are asked to be dopamine, dopamine is a neurotransmitter for the brain to send impulses to the motor nerves of the human body so that the body's bodies can work better and is important in all nerve responses that are related to the expression of emotions; Can be administered dopamine in the treatment of various types of shock like the Such as Parkinson's tremor Which…

Synesthesia is a neurological ‘phenomenon’ (the opposite of anesthesia, which means ‘no sensation’) that causes people to experience sensations in one part of the body because of simulation in other organs of the body. Research has shown that this is not just a memory exercise, but a genuine phenomenon. This is because it happens without the person thinking about it and it is ‘experienced’ rather than ‘made up’. Once a particular sensation has been attached (during childhood) to an object, it…

There are numerous anomalies that can be seen in the dental hygiene field, many of which require the dental hygienist to modify the way the treatment plan is conducted for the patient. One of the conditions a dental hygienist may come across while practicing is Pfeiffer Syndrome. According to Genetics Home Reference (2017), Pfeiffer syndrome is defined as “a genetic disorder characterized by the premature fusion of certain skull bones (craniosynostosis).” Because these skull bones fuse early it…

Acetylcholine has two types of receptors: muscarinic and nicotinic, these receptors are functionally and structurally different. Nicotinic receptors are ionotropic, meaning that ions flow through it when acetylcholine binds to it. It acts as a channel for the ions that cross it, especially sodium, and this causes the depolarization of the cell. There are two types of nicotinic receptors formed by different subunits, N1 are found in the neuromuscular junctions allowing muscle movement, and N2 is…

What Is Epilepsy? Epilepsy is a condition of the nervous system that affects 2.5 million Americans. More than 180,000 people are diagnosed with epilepsy every year. It can be scary watching someone have an epileptic seizure. The person may lose consciousness or seem unaware of what's going on, make involuntary motions (movements the person has no control over, such as jerking or thrashing one or more parts of the body), or experience unusual feelings or sensations (such as unexplained fear).…

There are many people who suffer from nervous system disorders. One famous person who suffered from a nervous system disorder is Bob Hoskins. He was a famous actor, who has stared in over 100 films during his acting career. He is most famous for his roles in Hook and Who Framed Roger Rabbit. On 28 October 2011, Hoskins was diagnosed with an aggressive form of Parkinson’s disease. Parkinson’s disease is a nervous system disorder that affects movement. Parkinson's disease symptoms change as the…

Companion Care and Memory Loss Memory loss can steal the life from your loved one. While mild memory loss does not prevent a person from completing daily tasks or living an independent life, more severe, or profound, memory loss may require round-the-clock supervision. There are many reasons your senior loved one may experience memory loss. The most serious of these reasons is dementia, which is a progressive and insidious disease that ultimately erodes a person's memories and capacities…

Polyneuropathy commonly arises from diabetes, autoimmune diseases, toxins, and nutritional deficiency to secondary alcoholism. The pathophysiology’s associated with polyneuropathy are symmetrical involvement of multiple nerve fibers, which results in stocking/glove distribution of sensation. In addition, demyelination of distal part long axons because of the increase in myelin. Moreover, degeneration of the distal part of long axon because inadequate axonal transport to distal ends of axons.…

Importance of Nicotinic Acetylcholine Receptors as a Drug Target Nicotinic acetylcholine receptors are found in humans’ central nervous system and play a major role in the peripheral nervous system, including acting as a neuronal communication channel; available at the skeleton muscle and receives acetylcholine purposely released to transmission for contraction of muscles. Additionally, they are responsible for the conversion of neurotransmitter bindings into electronic depolarization. Here, the…

To accurately diagnose hypokalemia and know the extent of the problem, a few tests have to be done. A full physical will be done by your veterinarian to evaluate body system functions. Blood tests will be run to determine the potassium levels of the blood. A urinalysis will be done to determine kidney function. In addition, an EKG will be done to see if there has been an effect on the heart. Once each test comes back…
