Book Description
Addіѕоnѕ dіѕеаѕе іѕ a rare еndосrіnе, or hоrmоnаl dіѕоrdеr thаt аffесtѕ about 1 in 100,000 реорlе. It occurs іn all аgе grоuрѕ аnd afflicts men and wоmеn еԛuаllу. Thе dіѕеаѕе іѕ сhаrасtеrіzеd bу wеіght loss, muѕсlе weakness, fаtіguе, lоw blооd pressure, and sometimes dаrkеnіng оf the ѕkіn in bоth еxроѕеd and non-exposed parts of the body. Addіѕоnѕ disease оссurѕ whеn the аdrеnаl glаndѕ dо not рrоduсе enough of thе hоrmоnе соrtіѕоl аnd іn ѕоmе cases, thе hormone аldоѕtеrоnе. Fоr thіѕ rеаѕоn, thе disease іѕ sometimes саllеd chronic аdrеnаl insufficiency, оr hуросоrtіѕоlіѕm. Addison's is a life-long disease that can only be managed. The disease is caused by the adrenal glands lack of producing enough hormones. When Addison's disease is not well managed it can lead to life threatening conditions which is called Addisonian crisis. The hypothalamus and pituitary glands can also lead to Addison's disease if they are injured. The damage of these three parts can be caused by different things such as taking a certain medication, genetics, an autoimmune condition, radiation, certain disorders, infections and a tumor.Since this condition can only be managed, patients prefer incorporating something much more effective with therapeutic benefits to go together with their traditional hormonal tablet.This is where CBD comes in, offering an all-natural and all-health effect. CBD for Addison's disease has been a topic of discussion for a while with more people embracing the idea each day. CBD has a lot of therapeutic benefits that have been recorded over time by patients with more life threatening conditions than Addison's.The endocrine system is responsible for collection of glands that produce hormones in the body and regulate functions of the body such as sexual function, tissue function and many more.This book is an insight into the therapeutic effects of CBD Oil on Addison's Disease.

Secondary Schizophrenia

Languages : en
Pages :
Book Description
Schizophrenia may not be a single disease, but the result of a diverse set of related conditions. Modern neuroscience is beginning to reveal some of the genetic and environmental underpinnings of schizophrenia; however, an approach less well travelled is to examine the medical disorders that produce symptoms resembling schizophrenia. This book is the first major attempt to bring together the diseases that produce what has been termed 'secondary schizophrenia'. International experts from diverse backgrounds ask the questions: does this medical disorder, or drug, or condition cause psychosis? If yes, does it resemble schizophrenia? What mechanisms form the basis of this relationship? What implications does this understanding have for aetiology and treatment? The answers are a feast for clinicians and researchers of psychosis and schizophrenia. They mark the next step in trying to meet the most important challenge to modern neuroscience – understanding and conquering this most mysterious of human diseases.

Pages : 413
Book Description
The hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis controls reactions to stress and regulates various body processes such as digestion, the immune system, mood and sexuality, and energy usage. This volume focuses on the role it plays in the immune system and provides substantive experimental and clinical data to support current understanding in the field, and potential applications of this knowledge in the treatment of disease. - Evidence presented in this book suggests that the nervous, endocrine, and immune systems form the Neuroendoimmune Supersystem, which integrates all the biological functions of higher organisms both in health and disease for their entire life cycle - Contributors include both the scientists who initiated the work on the HPA axis and on the autonomic nervous system, and those who joined the field later

Application of the International Classification of Diseases to Neurology
Author: World Health Organization
Publisher: World Health Organization
ISBN: 924154502X
Category : Medical
Languages : en
Pages : 586
Book Description
Gives specialists in the clinical neurosciences a detailed and authoritative instrument for coding virtually all recognized neurological conditions. Both neurological diseases and neurological manifestations of general diseases and injuries are included in this comprehensive coding tool. The volume is part of a growing family of specialty-based adaptations of ICD-10 which retain the core codes of the parent classification while providing extended detail at the fifth character and beyond. Now in its second edition ICD-NA has been revised to reflect current clinical concepts in the neurosciences as well as the new coding system introduced with ICD-10. The classification was finalized following extensive consultation with numerous professional organizations and international experts thus ensuring the representation of as many viewpoints as are practical and consistent. While remaining directly compatible with ICD-10 ICD-NA offers clinicians and researchers much greater precision allowing them to match an explicit diagnosis with a detailed code at the five- six or seven-character level. In addition a comprehensive alphabetical index and the extensive use of inclusion and exclusion terms provide considerable assistance in finding the correct category for any condition diagnosed. Apart from these opportunities for recording greater diagnostic detail the direct compatibility with ICD-10 facilitates comparisons between statistics compiled according to ICD-NA and national morbidity and mortality statistics compiled according to ICD-10. These features enhance the flexibility of ICD-NA making it suitable for use in morbidity statistics hospital record indexing and epidemiological research by government and other health agencies collecting statistical data under relatively few main headings or by individual physicians and researchers requiring a convenient tool for indexing their clinical and teaching material in sufficient detail. The revised classification should also facilitate the collection of epidemiological data comparisons of the prevalence of individual neurological diseases and identification of the risk factors for these diseases at both national and international levels. In addition to the detailed tabular list of neurological and related disorders the volume includes an explanation of the basic principles of classification and instructions for coding morphology codes for neoplasms relevant to neurology and neurosurgery and a 90-page index of diagnostic terms given in standard or official nomenclatures together with synonyms and eponyms.
