Gallstones Signs & Symptoms, Why They Occur | Cholecystitis, Choledocholithiasis, Cholangitis

Having gallstones within the gallbladder is known as the condition of cholelithiasis. When stones are large and move into different parts of the biliary tree (after leaving the gallbladder), they can cause several different medical conditions (ex. acute cholecystitis, choledocholithiasis, cholangitis), each of which has different signs and symptoms. In this lesson, we discuss the anatomy and purpose of the gallbladder, along with the signs and symptoms of each of these medical conditions.

Obesity, Causes, SIgns and Symptoms, Diagnosis and Treatment.

diseases No Comments »

Obesity is a medical condition in which excess body fat has accumulated to an extent that it may have a negative effect on health. People are generally considered obese when their body mass index (BMI), a measurement obtained by dividing a person’s weight by the square of the person’s height, is over 30 kg/m2; the range 25–30 kg/m2 is defined as overweight.Some East Asian countries use lower values. Obesity increases the likelihood of various diseases and conditions, particularly cardiovascular diseases, type 2 diabetes, obstructive sleep apnea, certain types of cancer, osteoarthritis, and depression.

Obesity is most commonly caused by a combination of excessive food intake, lack of physical activity, and genetic susceptibility. A few cases are caused primarily by genes, endocrine disorders, medications, or mental disorder. The view that obese people eat little yet gain weight due to a slow metabolism is not medically supported. On average, obese people have a greater energy expenditure than their normal counterparts due to the energy required to maintain an increased body mass.
