Abstract Geneticvariationsareappearedduetodifferentfactors. Thesevariationsmayhave a negative, positive or neutral impact on human. Genetic variations which have nega-tive effects always tend to have a considerable impact on the susceptibility of causing a disease. Understanding human genetic variation is currently believed to reveal the causeofindividualsusceptibilitytodiseaseandtheseverityofdisease. Therearerisks, limitations and challenges of genetic variation detection. Approaches like…
Over view of Meter dose Inhaler Regulation in US and EUROPE. Introduction A metered-dose inhaler (MDI) is a device that delivers a specific amount of medication to the lungs, in the form of a short burst of aerosolized medicine that is usually self-administered by the patient via inhalation. It is the most commonly used delivery system for treating asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and other respiratory diseases. Metered-dose inhaler products contain therapeutically active…
In a case report submitted by Misumi et al. (2010), a 79-year-old man reported with chest pain three days in a row, findings after some testing revealed he had elevated troponins and elevated ST segments on EKG. A 2D echocardiogram showed left ventricular apical akinesis with basal hyperkinesia. He had a coronary angiogram completed, and it showed no stenotic arteries, however they also injected ergonovine which appeared to cause a right coronary artery spasm. The patient was treated with…
chest congestion, frequent nose bleeds and multiple bruises to his arms and legs. He also had an elevated blood pressure of 180/90, chronic atrial fibrillation, elevated INR of 4.8, and elevated digoxin level 3.8. Mr. Elliot has chronic atrial fibrillation and is being treated with Warfarin. Warfarin is a Vitamin K antagonist, a blood thinner that is used to treat and reduce the chance of blood clots forming, such as a thromboembolism which can develop because of atrial fibrillation (Varim et…
hospital for several weeks so far after having a stroke. Lilly had a stroke which is known as and Ischaemic Stroke, which according to The Stroke Association, ‘’is caused by a blockage cutting off blood supply to the brain.’’ According to healthcare practitioners Lilly’s stroke was the result of high blood pressure, which according to the Stroke Association, ‘’is a contributing factor in around half of all strokes.’’ This topic was chosen as by having the stroke Lilly has became exposed to…
The frontal, parietal, and temporal lobes are the most prone to suffer from an ischemic stroke due to their shared blood supply. The frontal lobe is located within the anterior cranial fossa, whereas the temporal lobe is situated in the middle cranial fossa. The middle cerebral artery (MCA) is the region of interest as this is the most common site for ischemic strokes. The MCA consists of four sections. The M1 segment consists of lenticulostriate vessels which irrigate the basal ganglia. The M2…
Although the skeleton is one whole system, it’s split up into two parts. These can be identified as the axial skeleton and the appendicular skeleton. Axial Skeleton The axial part of the skeleton is the vertical, central section of the skeleton which includes the skull (cranium), the vertebral column and the rib cage. The axial skeleton is the supporting structure of the skeleton. It provides support and protection for the brain, the spinal cord and many of the organs within the human body. It…
the cavity. The sponge absorbs the blood and helps to retain the clot formed. This helps in bone healing and regeneration of bone. In the third Group C of 7 patients autogenous tooth bone graft (AutoBT) was used to fill the cavity. Patient’s third molar tooth is extracted and sent to tooth bank to get it grinded in granule form of 400- 800µm. Sterilization of the material is done. After enucleation and curettage this granular form AutoBT is filled in the cavity and then gingival flap is…
• Wear a pacemaker: for those who have had some form of heart surgery and are wearing a pacemaker, electro-acupuncture may disrupt how the pacemaker functions. • Are on blood thinners: acupuncture is said to possibly increase bleeding, especially at points where the needles are inserted. Am I taking any risks with acupuncture? Like any other medical or health procedure, there are possible risks. Be sure to learn as much…
fibrinogen to fibrin conversion and also inactivate multiple factors, including factors 9, 19, 11, and 12. Pharm effects: This leads to the pharmacological effects of increased bleeding time and interference of platelet aggregation, thus preventing blood clots from forming. Evidence: A study was done in China to determine how heparin affected osteoblasts. They treated human osteoblasts with heparin to see how they were effected. They found that treating the osteoblasts with unfractioned…
