Bacterial Disease | Health | Biology | FuseSchool

Did you know that it wasn’t until around 200 years ago that people knew what caused infectious diseases? Before that, they believed that one cause was ‘bad air’, and so they carried around bunches of sweet-smelling flowers to sweeten the scent of the air and prevent disease.

Thanks to the invention of the microscope, and the experiments carried out by scientists, we now know that infectious diseases are caused by pathogens such as viruses and bacteria.

In this video we’re going to look at how bacteria can cause disease in humans.

Vitamin C Deficiency (Scurvy) Symptoms (ex. bad teeth, fatigue), Why symptoms happen & who gets them

diseases No Comments »

Lesson on Vitamin C (Ascorbic acid) deficiency (Scurvy) signs and symptoms, the pathophysiology of vitamin C deficiency, why symptoms occurs, who gets these symptoms, and an in-depth overview of the condition known as scurvy. Vitamin C is an essential vitamin that is required for several metabolic pathways including collagen synthesis, and catecholamine synthesis among others. In the event of reduced dietary intake of vitamin C, the condition of scurvy can occur which leads to symptoms involving the teeth, skin, hair and can even cause depression, fatigue and weakness. Diagnosis includes laboratory investigations and treatment depends on whether the patient is a child or an adult.

South Africa is currently experiencing an epidemiological transition. Due to this status of the country and its society, communicable diseases are making up one side of the
spectrum of the quadruple burden of disease of the country, while on the other side, NCDs disease have been and are still emerging.
This collision of communicable and non-communicable diseases are influencing the health of the South Africans. Due to the hanging requirements of the populations wellbeing, the health care system has to anticipate.

BIOLOGICAL MEDICINE as practiced by Dr. Thomas Rau, M.D., Director of the Swiss Paracelsus Klinik Lustmuhle, combines the most modern diagnostic equipment with a wide range of traditional natural healing methods. It also integrates dentistry, as there is such a close relationship between teeth and health. BIOLOGICAL MEDICINE is a comprehensive and integrated approach to health and illness. It is “biological” and shows logically how we get ill by identifying the sequential phases of degeneration which lead from minor ailments to various chronic diseases. Illness is defined as a loss of regulatory capacity; that is, the inability to correctly respond to a wide variety of internal, environmental and lifestyle factors. The internal milieu or terrain, a central idea in BIOLOGICAL MEDICINE, needs to be balanced so that pathogenic microbial forms cannot develop and cause numerous diseases. Internal sites of chronic focal infections and “disturbance fields” but also toxic burdens are other important factors frequently overlooked in the treatment of degenerative diseases. In BIOLOGICAL MEDICINE, healing is defined as the restoration of regulatory capacity. This is achieved by removing the physical and emotional blockages to self-healing. Detoxification methods, immune system activation and the mobilization of healing at the psycho-spiritual level enable the regeneration of the body, mind and soul.

How a rare blood disorder made me a mother | Dana-Farber/Boston Children's

Tracy Antonelli was diagnosed with thalassemia at the age of 4; her body can’t make enough oxygen-carrying red blood cells. When she and her husband were ready to start a family, they looked to China, where thalassemia is relatively prevalent, and found three special girls.

The care that the girls now receive at Dana-Farber/Boston Children’s Cancer and Blood Disorders Center Includes regular blood transfusions, medication to remove excess iron from their bodies, and careful monitoring.

The thalassemias are a group of inherited blood disorders in which the genes that produce hemoglobin, the protein in red blood cells that carries oxygen from the lungs to all parts of the body, are broken. As a result, the red blood cells do not contain enough hemoglobin, causing anemia that can range from mild to life threatening. Thalassemia can come in different forms depending on the genetic mutations causing it. The transfusion-dependent form, also called thalassemia major or Cooley’s Anemia, requires lifelong follow-up care and regular blood transfusions. Some other forms are more readily managed and may require little or no treatment.

Thalassemia Treatment at Dana-Farber/Boston Children’s

At the Dana-Farber/Boston Children’s Thalassemia Program, our experts provide comprehensive care for children and adults with all forms of thalassemia. For many appointments and certain procedures, your child also can receive care at one of our satellite offices. Treatment for thalassemia depends on the subtype of the disorder, but may include:

– blood transfusions for anemia, based on severity
– regular and comprehensive monitoring for complications of thalassemia and of treatments
– iron chelation therapy, to remove excess iron from the body
– for certain cases, stem cell transplantation to replace the blood-forming stem cells with the defective hemoglobin gene(s)

Dickson and Daniel discuss protozoan parasites of minor medical importance, including Babesia, Cystoisopora belli, Cyclospora cayetanensis, Naegleria fowleri, and more.
