disease and you might be taking it for a long time. Yes‚ chronic use of proton pump inhibitors can show anxiety symptoms! When Do PPIs Prescribe? In digestive diseases like gastritis‚ there is increased secretion of stomach acid due to over-stimulation of parietal cells. This increased secretion of stomach acid can cause acid reflux and‚ in turn‚ leads to GERD (gastroesophageal Reflux Disease) and esophagitis. Doctors prescribe proton pump inhibitors and antacids to treat this

Introduction Type II Diabetes is a rapidly growing disease in our country. Unfortunately‚ many of us know at least one person who battles through this metabolic disease. I chose the article titled The sugar disease-understanding type 2 diabetes mellitus written by Georgina Casey to review and learn from. This article was found in the Continuing Professional Development +Nurses Journal published in March 2011. My grandmother has battled with this disease for many years and it has slowly progressed

The pH of saliva during meal time rises from slightly acidic pH 6.7 to more alkaline pH 7.5. Radiation and emotional distress can cause a reduction of salivary secretions. This then can create an unhealthy oral cavity environment due to increased bacteria population. Over time‚ the complications caused by the decreased salivary secretions are infection and erosion of the teeth and gums. The stomach is another component of the digestive system which is located within the left upper quadrant of the

Visayas Cebu College Natural Sciences and Mathematics Division Abstract Secretion of growth hormone is affected by two primary hormones: Growth hormone-releasing hormone and somatostatin. The former is the primary stimulant to promote growth hormone secretion while the latter is the primary inhibitor that prevents growth hormone secretion. Many studies have already shown that melatonin stimulates secretion of growth hormone via somatostatin inhibition but its mechanisms remain unknown. I

LH in males. Thyroid-stimulating Hormone (TSH) – Controls secretion of hormones from the thyroid gland. Adrenocorticotropic Hormone (ACTH) – Controls secretion of certain hormones from the adrenal cortex. Follicle-stimulating hormone (FHS) – Development of egg-containing follicles in ovaries; stimulates follicular cells to secrete estrogen; in males‚ stimulates production of sperm cells. Luteinizing Hormone (LH) – Promotes secretion of sex hormones; release egg cell in females.

or tracheostomy. Ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP) results from the invasion of the lower respiratory tract and lung parenchyma by microorganisms. Intubation compromises the integrity of the oropharynx and trachea and allows oral and gastric secretions to enter the lower airways. Epidemiology Ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP) is a complication in as many as 28% of patients who receive mechanical ventilation. The incidence of VAP increases with the duration of mechanical ventilation. Estimated
