At a very molecular level, this is an incredible example of where the same parents, the same environment, and the same gestational experience can yield significantly different out- comes in brain development that may then predict long-term sex differences in disease risk and resilience. Also, ...
Ischemic colitis.This means that not enough oxygen is getting to the cells that line the intestine. Insufficient blood flow to the intestine can lead to bloody diarrhea, often accompanied by belly pain. This results in ischemia, insufficient blood supply, and damage to cells lining the intestine....
The deposits, called plaques, causethe coronary arteries to narrow and may prevent a normal amount of oxygen-rich blood from reaching the heart muscle. When this happens, it is called "cardiac ischemia." "Angina" is the term for chest pain caused by ischemia. How does myocardial ischemia cau...
A colonoscopy is a medical procedure. A doctor inserts a camera mounted on long, flexible tube called a colonoscope into your rectum and colon. Colonoscopies are done to prevent, treat, and monitor diseases of your large intestine, such as colorectal cancer. Your colonoscopy will likely be done...
Question: How do ischemic stroke and hemorrhagic stroke compare to each other? Stroke: A stroke is a condition where the brain is suddenly deprived of blood, causing damage to the neurons, which need a constant supply of oxygen to maintain their function. This can cause severe brain ...
Acute kidney injury (AKI) is one of the most frequent organ failure encountered among intensive care unit patients. In addition to the well-known immediate complications (hydroelectrolytic disorders, hypervolemia, drug overdose), the occurrence of long-t
How long does the rabies virus last outside the body? What is measles encephalitis? What antibiotics are used to treat encephalitis? How fast does infection of intestinal ischemia spread? Is tick-borne encephalitis contagious? Does encephalitis cause fever? Are there long-term effects of encephaliti...
Cold ischemia timeindicates the time between the chilling of a tissue or body part after its blood supply is reduced or cut off and the time it is warmed again by having its blood supply restored. What is replantation surgery used for?
Cancer therapy has entered a new era, with huge data sets generated over the last decade from cancer genome sequencing and other big data molecular approaches using cancer patient samples. This provides a greater opportunity to understand the cause of tumorigenesis, and uncover novel therapeutic targe...
We conclude that an affinity-driven 'one size fits all' approach to drug discovery does not account for the diversity of MMOAs of approved drugs. We postulate that a target-centric approach for first-in-class drugs, without consideration of an optimal MMOA, may contribute to the current ...
