Modern treatment of seizures started in 1850 with the introduction of bromides, which was based on the theory that epilepsy was caused by an excessive sex drive. In 1910, phenobarbital (PHB), which then was used to induce sleep, was found to have antiseizure activity and became the drug of choice for many years. A number of medications similar to PHB were developed, including primidone.
Loa loa filariasis (also known as loiasis, loaiasis, Calabar swellings, Fugitive swelling, Tropical swelling and African eyeworm) is a skin and eye disease caused by the nematode worm, loa loa. Humans contract this disease through the bite of a Deer fly or Mango fly (Chrysops spp), the vectors for Loa loa. The adult Loa loa filarial worm migrates throughout the subcutaneous tissues of humans, occasionally crossing into subconjunctival tissues of the eye where it can be easily observed. Loa loa does not normally affect one's vision but can be painful when moving about the eyeball or across the bridge of the nose.The disease can cause red itchy swellings below the skin called "Calabar swellings". The disease is treated with the drug diethylcarbamazine (DEC), and when appropriate, surgical methods may be employed to remove adult worms from the conjunctiva.
Therapeutic anticoagulation is recommended for all women with acute VTE; prophylactic anticoagulation is recommended for women at risk, such as those with a past history of thrombosis or thrombophilia or with a mechanical heart valve. The preferred anticoagulants during pregnancy are the heparin compounds.
Adult Still's disease is a rare type of inflammatory arthritis that features fevers, rash and joint pain. Some people have just one episode of adult Still's disease. In other people, the condition persists or recurs. This inflammation can destroy affected joints, particularly the wrists. Treatment involves medications, such as prednisone, that help control inflammation
Dermatomyositis (dur-muh-toe-my-uh-SY-tis) is an uncommon inflammatory disease marked by muscle weakness and a distinctive skin rash. Dermatomyositis affects adults and children alike. In adults, dermatomyositis usually occurs from the late 40s to early 60s. In children, the disease most often appears between 5 and 15 years of age. Dermatomyositis affects more females than males. There's no cure for dermatomyositis, but periods of remission — when symptoms improve spontaneously — may occur. Treatment can clear the skin rash and help you regain muscle strength and function.

Preventing heart attacks and stroke can involve extensive surgery to remove plaque from your arteries, but as FOX17's Nick Paranjape shows us, there's a new procedure in Middle Tennessee that is less invasive and substantially cuts down on your recovery time. At 76, Jimmy Wilkie of Hendersonville exercises on his treadmill 3-4 times a week. Recently, he started having pain in his left leg. It was so bad, he couldn't even walk. Turned out, Mr. Wilkie had a blocked artery in his leg. In years past, this would've required major bypass surgery. Not anymore!"The Turbohawk Catheter has really opened a new door for us," says Dr. Dan Wunder.Dr. Wunder, an Interventional Radiologist at Premier Radiology in Madison, is talking about the Turbohawk. It's a device which is inserted into the blocked artery, and inside the Turbohawk are 4 tiny blades."It can cut the plaque and with that shape of the disc it cuts with it pushes it forward into the catheter," says Dr. Wunder.The one-hour procedure doesn't just push the plaque to the sides where it can re-grow, but instead grabs it and removes it!"We pull it back out and it fills up," says Dr. Wunder. "Empty it out, go back down and we can cut some more out."Before and after images really say it all."They used a roto rooter as he called it," says Wilkie.A roto rooter, Turbohawk, call it what you want, but Wilkie says all he knows is the procedure worked right away!"There wasn't any pain at all in my leg," says Wilkie.It's rare, but the outpatient procedure can have complications like plaque getting pushed down in the leg. Dr. Wunder says the main symptoms of a blockage in your legs is having severe pain or cramping when you're walking or exercising.

Protopic Vitiligo, Weiße Flecken Am Rücken, Pigmentflecken Im Gesicht Entfernen, Flecken Haut--- http://vitiligo-heilung.info-pro.co --- Weiße Flecken auf der Haut: Vitiligo, Die Entwicklung weißer Flecken auf der Haut ist ist ein Symptom einer Hautstörung, die Vitiligo genannt, im deutschen Sprachgebrauch aber auch häufig als "Weißfleckenkrankheit" bezeichnet wird. Man bringt den Zustand mit der Zerstörung oder Fuktionsstörung der Hautzellen in Verbindung, die für die Herstelleung des Hautpigmentes (Melanin) zuständig sind, welches dem Menschen seine Hautfarbe verleiht. Meistens entwickeln sich die Flecken dabei an Stellen, die oft der Sonne ausgesetzt sind, also z.B. die Hände, Arme, Füße, Beine und das Gesicht. Bisweilen treten die Flecken aber auch in den Achselhöhlen, im Genitalbereich und um den Bauchnabel herum auf. Von Vitiligo betroffene erleben häufig auch ein vorzeitiges Ergrauen der Haare. Es wird geschätzt, dass mindestens 1 % der Bevölkerung der Vereinigten Staaten an Vitiligo leidet; in Europe sind die Zahlen ähnlich. Weltweit leiden gegenwärtig mehr als 100 Millionen Menschen an der Hauterkrankung. Die Ursache von Vitiligo Die genaue Ursache der Erkrankung ist noch immer unbekannt. Eine der populärsten Theorien ist jedoch, dass es sich bei Vitiligo um eine Autoimmunstörung handelt. Sie veranlasst das Immunsystem, die Melanozyten (die Hautpigmente produzierenden Hautzellen) anzugreifen. In der Tat haben Menschen, die an einer anderen Autoimmunstörung, wie adrenocorticaler Unterfunktion or Schilddrüsenüberfunktion leiden, ein weitaus höheres Risiko, auch an Vitiligo zu erkranken. Manche Mediziner sind auch der Auffassung, dass Sonnenbrände, emotionaler Stress und bestimte Medikamente die weißen hautflecken hervorrufen könnten. Es wird außerdem geglaubt, dass Vitiligo is also believed eine genetisch vererbte Erkrankung darstellt. Behandlungsoptionen für Vitiligo Für Vitiligo gibt es unterschiedliche Behandlungsmöglichkeiten. Allerdings sind sie allesamt praktisch wirkungslos und beinhalten dazu noch das Risiko, ernsthafte Nebenwirkungen hervorzurufen. Krankenversicherer übernehmen zudem die vollen Behandlungskosten. Das allein macht eine Vitiligo-Behandlung bereits zu teuer für die meisten Patienten, denn es sind üblichwerweise zwei bis drei Besuche wöchentlich in ener Spezialklinik nötig. Ein Paradebeispiel für eine solche Behandlung ist die sogenannte PUVA-Therapie, die ausgesprochen häufig eingesetzt wird. "Gratis-Präsentation enthüllt einen ziemlich ungewöhnlichen Tipp zur Beseitigung von Vitiligo für alle Zeiten und in nur 45-60 Tagen - Garantiert!" http://vitiligo-heilung.info-pro.co Erfahren Sie mehr darüber, indem Sie diese Webseite besuchen: http://vitiligo-heilung.info-pro.co

Acute kidney failure — also called acute renal failure or acute kidney injury — develops rapidly over a few hours or a few days. Acute kidney failure is most common in people who are already hospitalized, particularly in critically ill people who need intensive care. Acute kidney failure can be fatal and requires intensive treatment. However, acute kidney failure may be reversible. If you're otherwise in good health, you may recover normal or nearly normal kidney function
Menorrhagia is the medical term for menstrual periods with abnormally heavy or prolonged bleeding. Although heavy menstrual bleeding is a common concern, most women don't experience blood loss severe enough to be defined as menorrhagia. With menorrhagia, you can't maintain your usual activities when you have your period because you have so much blood loss and cramping. If you dread your period because you have such heavy menstrual bleeding, talk with your doctor. There are many effective treatments for menorrhagia. Symptoms Signs and symptoms of menorrhagia may include: Soaking through one or more sanitary pads or tampons every hour for several consecutive hours Needing to use double sanitary protection to control your menstrual flow Needing to wake up to change sanitary protection during the night Bleeding for longer than a week Passing blood clots larger than a quarter Restricting daily activities due to heavy menstrual flow Symptoms of anemia, such as tiredness, fatigue or shortness of breath
Not all conditions that lead to heart failure can be reversed, but treatments can improve the signs and symptoms of heart failure and help you live longer. Lifestyle changes — such as exercising, reducing salt in your diet, managing stress and losing weight — can improve your quality of life.
