A. Science is not so developed to pin-point the exact cause or rule out something else. But it is noticed in various circumstances why pimples erupt favourably. They are as follows A) Hormonal changes - occurring during puberty, menstrual periods, pregnancy, and while people start or stop using birth control pills will mostly aggravate pimples. The male sex hormone testosterone (also found in women) triggers the sebaceous glands to produce excess sebum, making the skin greasy, which in turn causes pimples. Period of Puberty - Is pimple a sign of puberty? It occurs in both sexes due to excess sebum production, but predominately occurs in females Premenstrual symptom - Is pimple an indicator of periods? Mostly in women, pimples are more… [cont.]

Q. What is the pathophysiology of hepatocellular cancer?
Asked by patty_ - Sat Sep 23 06:32:59 2006 - - 3 Answers - 0 Comments

A. Any chronic inflammatory liver disease has the potential to induce hepatocellular carcinoma, but the pathophysiologic process most commonly associated with the disease is cirrhosis, found in up to 80% of cases (1). However, knowledge of all possible sources is important, considering that 20% of cases are due to noncirrhotic, nonviral causes. Whether cirrhosis itself or the mechanism underlying cirrhosis is responsible for malignant transformation of hepatocytes is not known. Certain viral, environmental, and hereditary causes of cirrhosis have a strong correlation with hepatocellular carcinoma. Chronic viral hepatitis as a cause of cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma is well known. Hepatitis B virus infection is the leading cause of… [cont.]

Asked by Bru - Sat Mar 1 04:03:49 2008 - - 2 Answers - 0 Comments

A. Pathophysiology pathophysiology is the study of the disturbance of normal mechanical, physical, and biochemical functions, either caused by a disease, or resulting from a disease or abnormal syndrome or condition that may not qualify to be called a disease. An alternate definition is "the study of the biological and physical manifestations of disease as they correlate with the underlying abnormalities and physiological disturbances." An example, from the field of infectious disease, would be the study of a toxin released by a bacterium, and what that toxin does to the body to cause harm, one possible result being sepsis. Another example is the study of the chemical changes that take place in body tissue due to inflammation. … [cont.]

Q. what are the factors to change the ejection fraction
Asked by jdjustice8912 - Thu Apr 16 19:34:52 2009 - - 1 Answers - 0 Comments

A. The heart does not eject all of the blood that is in the ventricle. Only about two-thirds of the blood is normally pumped out with each beat. That fraction is referred to the ejection fraction. The ejection fraction is an indicator of the heart's health. If the heart is diseased from a heart attack or another cardiac condition, the ejection fraction may fall, for example, to a third. Only a third of the blood in the ventricle is pumped out. The heart is essentially half-normal .Because the left ventricle is the heart's main pumping chamber, ejection fraction is usually measured only in the left ventricle. For the majority of congestive heart failure patients, treatment should focus on using the recommended doses of an ACE inhibitor and… [cont.]

Q. What is the detailed pathophysiology of multiple sclerosis?
Asked by Michael B - Tue Sep 18 06:05:44 2007 - - 1 Answers - 0 Comments

A. Although much is known about how multiple sclerosis causes damage, the reasons why multiple sclerosis occurs are not known. Multiple sclerosis is a disease in which the myelin (a fatty substance which covers the axons of nerve cells) degenerates. According to the view of most researchers, a special subset of lymphocytes, called T cells, plays a key role in the development of MS. According to a strictly immunological explanation of MS, the inflammatory processes triggered by the T cells create leaks in the blood-brain barrier (a capillary system that should prevent entrance of T-cells into the nervous system). These leaks, in turn, cause a number of other damaging effects such as swelling, activation of macrophages, and more activation of… [cont.]

Asked by MiG - Thu Sep 25 12:07:06 2008 - - 1 Answers - 0 Comments

A. From eMedicine: The etiology of clefts is multifactorial, with both genetic and environmental causes cited. The observation of clustered cases of facial clefts in a particular family indicates a genetic basis. Clefting of the lip and/or palate is associated with more than 150 syndromes. The overall incidence of associated anomalies (eg, cardiac) is approximately 30% (more common with isolated cleft palate). Environmental causes such as viral infection (eg, rubella) and teratogens (eg, steroids, anticonvulsants) during the first trimester have been linked to facial clefts. The risk also increases with parental age, especially when older than 30 years, with the father's age appearing to be a more significant factor than the mother's age.… [cont.]

A. Diabetes is a condition when the blood sugar is high. Blood sugar is the glucose present in the blood. This condition arise when insulin is not produced by the beta cells of the pancreas (Insulin Factory), also known as the Type 1 Diabetes or when the body cells fail to absorb insulin(insulin resistance) , known as the Type 2 Diabetes.Insulin is a hormone produced by the beta cells of the islets of Langerhans in the pancreas. Insulin is required by the body cells to convert glucose into energy. The pathophysiology of Type 1 diabetes mellitus suggests that it is an autoimmune disease, in which the body's own immune system generates secretion of substances that attack the beta cells of the pancreas. Consequently, the pancreas secretes… [cont.]

A. Lactic acidosis is the most common cause of metabolic acidosis in hospitalized patients. It is associated with an elevated anion gap and a plasma lactate concentration above 4 meq/L. Impaired tissue oxygenation, leading to increased anaerobic metabolism, is usually responsible for the rise in lactate production. (See "Approach to the adult with metabolic acidosis"). The pathophysiology and causes of lactic acidosis will be reviewed here. The possible role of bicarbonate therapy in such patients is discussed separately. (See "Bicarbonate therapy in lactic acidosis"). pathophysiology a review of the biochemistry of lactate generation and metabolism is important in understanding the pathogenesis of lactic acidosis.
