What causes carbon dioxide levels to rise? Over the last centurythe burning of fossil fuels like coal and oilhas increased the concentration of atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO2). This happens because the coal or oil burning process combines carbon with oxygen in the air to make CO2. What is t...
What causes high altitude pulmonary edema? What causes pulmonary schistosomiasis? Is a pulmonary embolism a blood clot? What causes hypoxia in COPD? Does a pulmonary embolism cause hypotension? Does a pulmonary embolism cause a cough? What are the risk factors for rheumatic heart disease?
What is oxygen in our blood transported by? What is heart failure? What is respiratory alkalosis and what causes it? When the blood contains a high percentage of CO2 and a very low percentage of O2, the breathing stops and the person becomes unconscious. What is this condition called?
“Across the globe, the likelihood of breaking weather extremes is directly related to the impact of climate change related to multiple causes, but primarily, increasing heat-trapping gases like CO2 and changes in landscape and landcover.” Brian Hoskins, professor at the University of Reading in...
What causes pm2.5 pollution? Although natural processes produce pm 2.5, its main source is anthropogenic emissions. PM 2.5 produced by human activities is divided into direct emissions and indirect emissions. Direct emissions mainly come from combustion processes, such as fossil fuel combustion, biomass...

Key seizures causes Arterial hypocapnia (a low CO2 level in the arterial blood) is typical in modern people (see links below) and is even more pronounced in the sick. It is the main seizures causes. Among other factors, the main effects of hypocapnia caused by hyperventilation in relation to...
Plasma is needed to circulate red blood cells that deliver oxygen throughout the body. Dextran is used to treat hypovolemia (decreased volume of circulating blood plasma), that can result from surgery, trauma or injury, severe burns, or other causes of bleeding. Dextran may also be used for ...

In the longer term, the result is high blood glucose levels and then insulin resistance, which then can lead to higher risks of high blood pressure, high cholesterol, obesity, and type 2 diabetes. Metabolic inflexibility also causes the mitochondria to produce more free radicals, which in turn...
