The standing toe-touch is a Contraindicated exercise… ,[object Object],http://www.flickr.com/photos/61478269@N05/5635283907

Did you know that 60-80% of the population is affected with back pain or injury? This is why you should take care of your back and not do these unhealthy stretches because they will only strain a person’s back more. 75 million Americans suffer from back pain each year. ,[object Object],http://www.flickr.com/photos/7635229@N06/2425792647/

Patients who have problems with their hips go through lengths in order to reduce the pain and would rather not delay their hip replacement procedure because it will just prolong their agony, however, recent health reports say that it may be possible to preserve diseased hip joints without replacing the joints. This new practice may be able to extend the hip joints to last for a lifetime instead of having a hip replacement that may only last for 15 to 20 years, several orthopedic specialists say. The complications that often result to the destruction of the hip joints are often correctible, according to Dr. Michael B. Millis, because they have a pattern that needs to be corrected before they cause further and irreversible damage. Read more here at this website: depuypinnaclelawsuit.com

Whether you are a cyclist, a swimmer, a runner, a former college athlete or starting your child in youth sports, staying injury-free is important to keeping you and your student athlete at top performance. By incorporating injury prevention strategies into your workout routine, you can stay on the field and off of the sidelines. According to the Center for Disease Control, more than half of all sports injuries in children are preventable, and almost two thirds of injuries in organized sports occur during practice. By understanding the major factors contributing to these injuries, you can lower your risk. This overview will give you guidelines to keep you competing year-round.

THE SHOCKING WAYS THAT TIGHT HIPS ARE HOLDING YOU BACK… THAT YOU WON’T BELIEVE Here's the truth: Most people don’t realize the cause of their problems is tight hip 몭exors. The impact the hips had on the whole body never occurred to me until I saw the e몭ect of tight hip 몭exors had on the health and well-being of my wife after she gave birth. It was only then that I truly understood the magnitude of the problem. Discover more by going to https://bestvisceralfat.blogspot.com/

Dr Jeenal Mistry

Ethanol (CH3CH2OH), or beverage alcohol, is a two-carbon alcohol that is rapidly distributed in the body and brain. Ethanol alters many neurochemical systems and has rewarding and addictive properties. It is the oldest recreational drug and likely contributes to more morbidity, mortality, and public health costs than all illicit drugs combined. The 5th edition of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM-5) integrates alcohol abuse and alcohol dependence into a single disorder called alcohol use disorder (AUD), with mild, moderate, and severe subclassifications (American Psychiatric Association, 2013). In the DSM-5, all types of substance abuse and dependence have been combined into a single substance use disorder (SUD) on a continuum from mild to severe. A diagnosis of AUD requires that at least two of the 11 DSM-5 behaviors be present within a 12-month period (mild AUD: 2–3 criteria; moderate AUD: 4–5 criteria; severe AUD: 6–11 criteria). The four main behavioral effects of AUD are impaired control over drinking, negative social consequences, risky use, and altered physiological effects (tolerance, withdrawal). This chapter presents an overview of the prevalence and harmful consequences of AUD in the U.S., the systemic nature of the disease, neurocircuitry and stages of AUD, comorbidities, fetal alcohol spectrum disorders, genetic risk factors, and pharmacotherapies for AUD.

Physiology of Chemical Sensation of smell.pdf

MedicoseAcademics

Title: Sense of Smell Presenter: Dr. Faiza, Assistant Professor of Physiology Qualifications: MBBS (Best Graduate, AIMC Lahore) FCPS Physiology ICMT, CHPE, DHPE (STMU) MPH (GC University, Faisalabad) MBA (Virtual University of Pakistan) Learning Objectives: Describe the primary categories of smells and the concept of odor blindness. Explain the structure and location of the olfactory membrane and mucosa, including the types and roles of cells involved in olfaction. Describe the pathway and mechanisms of olfactory signal transmission from the olfactory receptors to the brain. Illustrate the biochemical cascade triggered by odorant binding to olfactory receptors, including the role of G-proteins and second messengers in generating an action potential. Identify different types of olfactory disorders such as anosmia, hyposmia, hyperosmia, and dysosmia, including their potential causes. Key Topics: Olfactory Genes: 3% of the human genome accounts for olfactory genes. 400 genes for odorant receptors. Olfactory Membrane: Located in the superior part of the nasal cavity. Medially: Folds downward along the superior septum. Laterally: Folds over the superior turbinate and upper surface of the middle turbinate. Total surface area: 5-10 square centimeters. Olfactory Mucosa: Olfactory Cells: Bipolar nerve cells derived from the CNS (100 million), with 4-25 olfactory cilia per cell. Sustentacular Cells: Produce mucus and maintain ionic and molecular environment. Basal Cells: Replace worn-out olfactory cells with an average lifespan of 1-2 months. Bowman’s Gland: Secretes mucus. Stimulation of Olfactory Cells: Odorant dissolves in mucus and attaches to receptors on olfactory cilia. Involves a cascade effect through G-proteins and second messengers, leading to depolarization and action potential generation in the olfactory nerve. Quality of a Good Odorant: Small (3-20 Carbon atoms), volatile, water-soluble, and lipid-soluble. Facilitated by odorant-binding proteins in mucus. Membrane Potential and Action Potential: Resting membrane potential: -55mV. Action potential frequency in the olfactory nerve increases with odorant strength. Adaptation Towards the Sense of Smell: Rapid adaptation within the first second, with further slow adaptation. Psychological adaptation greater than receptor adaptation, involving feedback inhibition from the central nervous system. Primary Sensations of Smell: Camphoraceous, Musky, Floral, Pepperminty, Ethereal, Pungent, Putrid. Odor Detection Threshold: Examples: Hydrogen sulfide (0.0005 ppm), Methyl-mercaptan (0.002 ppm). Some toxic substances are odorless at lethal concentrations. Characteristics of Smell: Odor blindness for single substances due to lack of appropriate receptor protein. Behavioral and emotional influences of smell. Transmission of Olfactory Signals: From olfactory cells to glomeruli in the olfactory bulb, involving lateral inhibition. Primitive, less old, and new olfactory systems with different path
