HIV :: Researchers find key to battling HIV
Researchers at Mount Sinai School of Medicine in New York report they have found a key to controlling the HIV infection.
Infection
Cryosurgery :: Cryotherapy or cryosurgery
Cryosurgery is a method of super-freezing tissue in order to destroy it. The technique is used to treat cancerous tumors, control pain, control bleeding, and reduce brain tumors.
Smallpox :: New plasma-derived product to treat complications of smallpox vaccin
FDA has approved Vaccinia Immune Globulin Intravenous (VIGIV) — the first intravenous human plasma-derived product available to treat certain rare complications of smallpox vaccination. VIGIV, licensed to DynPort Vaccine Company LLC, in Frederick, Md., is made from the pooled plasma of donors who received booster immunizations with the licensed smallpox vaccine — Dryvax. This plasma contains increased levels of protective antibodies against the vaccinia virus, the live virus used in the currently available smallpox vaccine. The vaccinia virus is similar to the smallpox virus, but does not cause smallpox.
Diabetes :: A case of diabetic nephropathy
Diabetic nephropathy is the kidney disease that occurs as a result of diabetes. It is a leading cause of kidney failure in Europe and the USA. After many years of diabetes the delicate filtering system in the kidney becomes destroyed, initially becoming leaky to large blood proteins such as albumin which are then lost in urine. This is more likely to occur if the blood sugar is poorly controlled.
Leukemia :: A case of Leukemia treated with homeopathy medicines
Hereunder I am presenting a case of Leukemia. I cannot claim this case to be of any academic value or an instructive case, yet this case shows that Homoeopathic medicines act while allopathic treatment was being given simultaneously. And above all, the Homoeopathic medicines were prescribed on meager symptoms without seeing the patient even once. The result of such mixed treatment is evident that after the use of Homoeopathic medicines the pathology became normal and the patient improved to a great extent.
Cervical cancer :: Cervical cancer vaccine expected in a few years
A vaccine that could prevent young women from developing most cases of cervical cancer could be on the market within a few years.
HIV :: HIV/AIDS Lipoatrophy – Facial Wasting
Individuals living with HIV and AIDS may not only have to deal with the threat of illness but the toll of illness. All that is required to stay healthy and alive can leave an everlasting mark! I’m referring to the loss of subcutaneous fat from the face, commonly referred to as facial wasting or Lipoatrophy.
Heart Disease :: Inflammation’s role in Heart Disease
There is an importance of inflammation as a contributor to heart attack, stroke and other cardiovascular diseases. In the United States, researchers at the Harvard School of Public Health report that blood levels of C-reactive protein, a molecular marker of inflammation, rank with cholesterol levels as indicators of future coronary heart disease.
Corneal ulcer :: Eye Corneal Ulcer cured with Senega
Corneal ulcer is an erosion or open sore in the outer layers of the cornea caused by infection, abrasion, foreign bodies, severe allergy, severe dryness of the eye, various types of inflammatory disorders, stress, and an impaired immune system. Symptoms include eye pain, redness, blurred vision, light sensitivity, increased tearing, or a white patch on the cornea.
Lupus :: Abnormal pap smears in women with lupus
Women with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) are more likely to have an abnormal Pap test result than other women, according to a new report. This is important because abnormal smears can be associated with cervical cancer.
