Importance of chest x-ray in chagas disease!

A normal chest x-ray may give answer of certain infectious disease – chagas disease, when patient suffers from cardiac problem. Chagas disease is an infectious disease caused by parasite invasion after biting bugs. The specific parasite is responsible for this disease is Tryponosoma Cruzi (T. Cruzi). Sometime it is known as zoonotic disease transmitted to humans from dogs and/or cats or other wild animals. WHO already announced the chagas disease – pandemic around the world. The most prominent clinical features are fever, swelling of glands (lymph) and spleen, eventually cardiac symptoms are noticed. Therefore, chest x-ray is suggested to detect specific cardiac abnormality – calcification is noticed.

Significance of high resolution ultrasound technique!

The bed-side investigation procedure is always a quick management option for physicians’ clinical endeavors. Physicians should have disciplined; however, quick management plan during bed-side patient management is obligatory. Therefore, high resolution ultrasound can be a good imaging device. For example, subject suffering from palpitation, weight loss should be a choice of thyroid scanning using high resolution ‘ultrasonograph technique’. There are some characteristics in thyroid swelling – would signify benign from malignant and/or viceversa. This would infer further management plan, that demonstrating, the high resolution ultrasound imaging device renders useful and noninvasive for physicians. It is suggested to use linear imaging mode with 7.5 MHz ~ frequency during ‘thyroid imaging’.

Role of imaging modality in persistent high blood pressure!

I feel to write one important role of imaging modality (radiological technique) when patient suffers from persistent high blood pressure. Sometime patient suffers from persistent high
blood pressure even systemic investigations are normal. It is also noticed normal hormone
level - which is responsible for high blood pressure. In this perspective, imaging method (radiological technique) might be useful option for medical investigation - chest scan of CT
should be suggested. Sometime, it is shown that persistent high blood pressure is caused by abnormal growth of lung tissue (malignant) and it's hormone; however, the charactersitic of
cancer is yet to be studied.

Motion sickness can be fatal!

Motion sickness can be fatal - it is important to pursue close medical observation. Sometime, subject complaints of motion sickness at erect posture, considering orthostatic hypotension.
However, this symptom with rise in body temperature should be observed very closely.
For young individual, who suffers from above mentioned medical symptoms, sould be considered as cardiovascular disease. It is always important to arrange bed-side medical examination in the first visit to the clinic. For this evaluation, the delay between arterial pulsations (i.e. radial) is an important physical examination. In addition, ultrasound examination (with higher MHz) of major vessels (i.e. carotid artery) is another significant imaging investigation to promote early diagnosis and to prevent from further fatality.

Preventive measure of abnormal cell growth!

Still it is yet to be understood abnormal cell growth in the body - persuading cancer. There are already many predisposing factors for developing abnormal cell growth especially in the vital organs (i.e. lung, liver, stomach, bladder, prostate, ovary, cervix, uterus, brain etc.). For example, one virus (papilloma) is mostly responsible for cervical cancer among women.
However, the mechanism of abnormal cell growth in certain organ is not clear enough. Recent studies suggest that genetic mutation inside the nucleus of cell is responsible for abnormal cell proliferation. Now, it is to be studied - the preventive measure of abnormal cell growth. As it is already known to people the predisposing factors to grow cancer; however, some preventive measures consisting food habit, physiological etc. are to be taken into considerations - antioxidant diet, fish are well food habit. Aerobic training has enormous benefit as well. Till, there are unknown preventive measures from developing abnormal cell growth (cancer); however, the important is to keep the cells of any organ in the body cool and relaxed.

The benefits of physical exercise on psychophysiology!

I always try to evaluate the intensity of physical exercise on health – the slow jogging or moderate physical exercise. The slow jogging is always done under aerobic condition which is beneficial in physiological or psychological viewpoints. The regular aerobic jogging also keeps the blood glucose level in normal condition. Previous reports argued that slow jogging would bring mental well-being as well. However, it is also necessary to keep the fatty acid level (LDL, low density lipoprotein) in normal condition, that may not be always sufficient with slow jogging when I consider the food-habit. So, in this perspective, moderate exercise is also necessary to sustain normal blood fatty acid level (LDL) as to refrain from cardiac disease (coronary artery disease; CAD). It is acknowledged that 1 hour moderate exercise can reduce blood fatty acid level up to 4 mg; however, it is also important to maintain a normal heart function during moderate exercise.

Vitamin B12 AND Helicobacter pylori!

It is always important to find the precise predisposing factor of any neurological symptom, though it is a 'difficult task' sometime for a clinician. Sometime, complex neurological clinical
history has been argued by the patients - those are combination of neuropsychological related.
In this case, proper neurological examination is obligatory to establish provisional diagnosis.
If the provisional diagnosis is vitamin B-12 deficiency induced neurological disorder, then it's
malabsorbtion can be suggested. Usually, those who suffer from helicobacter pylori induced
gastritis are prone to vitamin B12 deficiency related neurological disorder.
