Acute Metabolic Trauma

Have you ever heard a disease called Toxic Shock Syndrome. Mand of you haven't heard of that kind of disease before. In this essay i'm going to explain to you what Toxic Shock Syndrome is. I hope that you enjoy!

This radio show delves into the interworkings of trauma and how specifically we can treat them through natural processes that can help develop new and healthy topics or rewire the brain. One of my favorite points in the article is when Dr. Van Der Kolk clarifies “therapy as in people really getting to know themselves very well and examining themselves and being seen and being heard and being understood has always been around and I think it will always be around. And I don’t think we’ll ever talk about it as necessarily primitive, because the intimate interchange of people really talking about their deepest feelings and their deepest pain and having persons listen to it has always been, and I think it always will be, a very powerful human experience” (Tippett,

Grade 1: This grade is where the ankle will be tender and swelling may occur however the ligaments will not be torn however there may be little tear.

This particular bacterium is not one that inhabits a specific geographical region as it colonizes within the human body. The disease is

Thirty to 50 percent of the 400,000 to 500,000 cases of sepsis in the United States each year are fatal, emphasizing the seriousness of this public health concern [2]. Recent research into possible alternative treatment options indicates that patients being treated with statin therapy are less likely to develop sepsis from a serious infection, die from sepsis or develop serious complications due to sepsis; however, the mechanism of action is unknown and therefore is the focus of this study [2, 6, 10-12]. Possible mechanisms of action include a direct interaction of the statin with the sepsis-causing organism, an interaction between the statin and the host immune system or a combination of the two [9, 14, 16-17]. Additionally, recent studies indicate that statins may have a direct antimicrobial effect and has suggested that statins may diminish the replication and infectivity of some pathogens responsible for sepsis [11, 14, 16-17]. Thus, we hypothesized that statins could benefit septic patients by

Age has an important role to play in Bursitis, as you grow older your tendons may not withstand as much as they used to therefore they may be easier to rip because they may not tolerate as much stress put onto the tendons.

This condition is typically caused by tight tendons or muscles around the hip. This often happens from overuse.

Melanie Reece presented on Blast induced neurotrauma, which can cause damage to the brain and cause permanent damage. Research regarding Blast induced Neurotrauma started around WW1, most cases were regarding shell shock. Blast induced traumatic brain injury (BINT) can cause damaging effects that linger on, after the initial shock, mainly due to the impact on specific areas in the brain. BINT’s have different types of severity, ranging from mild to severe.

Commonly including pain medication, ice, and need of rest is reliable for less severe fractures. For severe causes within the range of 6 to 12 months may need surgery in order to relieve pressure and repair damage within the bursa. To prevent bursitis, individuals must change their actions and performance in tasks physically and

Many people over the age of forty-years old, after years of doing a loved activity, are forced to give it all up for a common medical reason. This medical reason is the notorious, antagonistic bursitis. It is a skeletal disease can be caused by any activity that entails rigorous impact near the joints. This could be gardening, golf, track, football, etc. This disease is caused by the inflammation of fluid-filled sacs, bursa, which prevents the reduction of friction between tissues of the human body. When the friction is not reduced, it can cause excruciating pain near your joints. The specific origin of this disease is unknown, however, the term “bursa” comes from a town in turkey, indicating a more specific region of its origin.

Nine Type-I and six Type-IV fractures were identified in this series. All patients were right-hand dominant. The dominant side was injured in three cases only. The mechanism of injury was a low-energy fall in all cases. All fractures were closed. There were no associated neurovascular injuries. There were two ipsilateral radial head fractures and one lateral epicondyle fracture. No other concomitant upper limb musculoskeletal injuries were seen. Intraoperatively, trochlear involvement was identified in association with all Type-IV fractures. The lateral collateral ligament was intact in all fractured elbows, except in one where the lateral collateral ligament was found to be avulsed along with an attached lateral epicondyle fracture fragment.

In 1963, Harjola3 described a case of chronic abdominal pain in a young woman that he attributed to mesenteric ischemia caused by extrinsic compression of the celiac artery. Since then, the topic has been the focus of numerous controversies regarding its pathophysiology, definitive diagnosis, and optimal treatment4. There is still considerable doubt about the real existence of the CACS. Asymptomatic compression or stenosis of the celiac artery is common, and compression of this artery by fibers of the median arcuate ligament has been demonstrated on arteriography in asymptomatic patients1. Similarly, autopsy studies have shown that the celiac artery is compressed by the median arcuate ligament in up to one-third of individuals5. The difficulty

There are two types of hip pains which we refer to as Acute and chronic hip pain, since sometimes there are some nonspecific symptoms which originate from local, regional or distant sources, the differential diagnosis of hip pain is substantial , and affected athletes may note acute or chronic symptoms of widely ranging intensities, locations and durations. Furthermore, clinical findings are highly variable, and many regional anatomical structures may be included by athletes and clinicians alike when discussing problems affecting the ‘hip and groin’, which will lead to further confusion.

Liver plays a central role in transforming and clearing chemicals and is consequently susceptible to the toxicity induced from these agents. Chemicals that cause liver injury are termed hepatotoxins, and more than 900 drugs have been implicated in causing liver injury and it is the most common reason for a drug to be withdrawn from the market. Chemicals often cause subclinical injury to liver which may be manifest by abnormal liver enzyme tests. Certain medicinal agents when taken in overdoses and sometimes even when introduced within therapeutic ranges may injure the organ. Other chemical agents such as those used in laboratories and industries, natural chemicals (e.g. microcystins) and herbal remedies can also induce hepatotoxicity (e.g. Lycopodiumserratum and Ephedra equisetina).

Obstetric brachial plexus palsy is caused by traction to the brachial plexus during labour. In the majority of cases delivery of the upper shoulder is blocked by the mother’s pubic symphysis (shoulder dystocia). If additional traction is applied to the child’s head, the angle between the neck and the shoulder is forcefully widened, overstretching the ipsilateral brachial plexus. Recently, the exact origin of OBPP was again a matter of debate. It was suggested that intrauterine maladaptation, not nerve traction, causes the plexopathy. [43]
