Cigarette smoke would encourage a particular gene that creates a better fat burning. This explains why people who stop smoking, often recover some pounds.

The specific gene, AZGP1, produces a protein that provides the breakdown of fat. Cigarette smoke makes this gene work faster, making a slim line so easily maintained. This shows a study from Cornell University in New York. (more…)
The third issue dealt with here, is not an illness but a general research and treatment for the abdomen, laparotomy. A laparotomy is the surgical opening of the abdomen by an incision. When a laparotomy is done for a diagnosis, speak no va proeflaparotomie .Door the advent of other diagnostic tools, such as laparoscopy, the proeflaparotomie do less and less frequently used. A laparotomy is performed not only as a research method, but also as a treatment of a previously undetected abnormality. A laparotomy is a surgery, so can the “normal” problems after an operation expected. Some specific problems after a laparotomy may be:
- Parotitis. After a laparotomy, a patient during certain time given orally (ie by mouth). The salivary glands and particularly the parotid gland are thus insufficient to stimulate saliva production, mainly in the elderly may result in an inflammation of the parotid gland. The result is severe pain with high fever. one can try to prevent the Speek selsecretie regular stiumleren, such as lemon drops or lemon swabs. (more…)
CVA (cerebrovascular accident) or ‘stroke‘ or ’stroke’ or infarction, or popularly called “brain hemorrhage” or “stroke” means that part of the brains get fed no blood – if it lasts long enough then to vital brain cells die.
The blood supply is stopped by closure of a blood vessel or rupture (break) of a blood vessel.
Once brain cells are dead or no longer functioning. Around an area of severe internal is often an area of the brain where blood supply is reduced but not completely stopped. The cells in this area may be features of the deceased brain cells take over.
Treatment of stroke is therefore primarily aimed at restoring the blood flow so as to minimize the damage.
Types
- Ischemic stroke, sometimes called bloodless stroke. This is a closed vessel by a blood clot, or by thrombosis in the cerebral (brain) vessels, by an embolism (a clot from elsewhere in which a brain cask crash).
- Hemorrhagic stroke, also called bloody stroke. A blood vessel in the brains breaks down and causes bleeding. The accumulation of blood hits the brain in a fix with damage. In addition, other brain cells without blood and death to be equally. The bleeding may occur in the brains or the meninges (subarachnoid).
- TIA or transient ischemic attack – a period of decreased blood supply is a short period of disruption of the blood supply to brain tissue, with short-term function loss. The loss of function within 24 hours to restore, recovery takes longer than we speak of a stroke. TIAs are often a pre-stroke and are therefore an important warning signal. In the first months after a TIA, the risk of a stroke at 20% in the first days after a TIA even higher. (more…)
What is insomnia?
Insomnia is difficulty falling or staying asleep, or waking up too early, or simply wake up with the impression of not having a good sleep. The consideration for people suffering from insomnia is different for each patient, and varies between cultures, so it is not possible to define normal sleep in a manner acceptable to different people and populations. What each considered normal in quantity and quality of sleep is very variable.
Why did it happen?
Insomnia may be due to the effects of substances, drugs or toxic or organic disease, a mental disorder, a related sleep disorder breathing (sleep apnea), neurological injury or abnormal sleep situations , such as sleepwalking or sleep terrors in children. In these cases, it is called secondary insomnia. There is talk of primary insomnia when it is associated to another cause, treatment or illness. The description of the night insomnia include discomfort at not being able to sleep satisfactorily, and also the consequences for daytime activity: irritability, poor concentration, drowsiness. There may be a deterioration in social, occupational, or other areas of life of people. In turn, the insomnia itself can cause other illnesses such as depression or headache.

* Symptoms of restless legs or other automatic movements.
* Changes in the usual hours of sleep and wake.
* Snoring or other symptoms of sleep apnea.
* Symptoms or history of abusing alcohol or other intoxicants.
* Current medications (diuretics, antihypertensives).
* Other diseases.
* Environmental conditions: noise, excessive temperature or cold.
* Dietary habits (consumption of coffee, alcohol), especially at dinner.
* Making excessive exercise during the day.
* Labor intensive or stressful activity.
