Asherman's syndrome (AS) is an acquired uterine condition that occurs when scar tissue forms inside the uterus and/or the cervix. [1] It is characterized by variable scarring inside the uterine cavity, where in many cases the front and back walls of the uterus stick to one another.
It aims to break up adhesions (scar tissue) on and around spinal joints as the cervical, thoracic, lumbar, sacral, and pelvic regions, or extremity joints as the knee, shoulder and hip, to which a restricted range of motion can be painful and limit function. Failed attempts at other standard conservative treatment methods (i.e., manipulation ...
Forensic Palynology is an evolving forensic science application. And is mostly utilized in countries such as New Zealand, Australia, and the United Kingdom. [1] It is relatively "small, disparate, and fragmented" compared to the other approaches, thus, there is no thorough guide to achieve the best practice in forensic palynology. [10]
Pantothenate kinase-associated neurodegeneration (PKAN), formerly called Hallervorden–Spatz syndrome, [1] is a genetic degenerative disease of the brain that can lead to parkinsonism, dystonia, dementia, and ultimately death. Neurodegeneration in PKAN is accompanied by an excess of iron that progressively builds up in the brain.
Parkinson's disease, or simply Parkinson's, [28] is a long-term degenerative disorder of the central nervous system that mainly affects the motor system. The disease has many complications, including anxiety, dementia, and depression. [29] Parkinson's disease typically occurs in people over the age of 60, of whom about one percent are affected.
Wichita ranked first in the country on all three pollen levels: tree, grass and weed. Kansas City ranked 20th most severe out of 100 cities on tree pollen, 36th on grass pollen and 34th on weed ...
Degenerative disease is the result of a continuous process based on degenerative cell changes, affecting tissues or organs, which will increasingly deteriorate over time. [ 1 ] In neurodegenerative diseases , cells of the central nervous system stop working or die via neurodegeneration .
[3] [17] The inflammation can lead to the formation of scar tissue and adhesion that can make the spinal nerves "stick" together, a condition where such tissue develops in and between the leptomeninges - between dura and arachnoid or pia and arachnoid. [17] This condition can be very painful, especially when progressing to adhesive arachnoiditis.
