critical triad of peripheral sensory neuropathy‚ deformity‚ and trauma (Reiber‚ et al.‚ 1999). The following discusses the pathophysiology of each of the triad in limited detail. Background: Glucose is liberated from dietary carbohydrate such as starch or sucrose by hydrolysis within the small intestine‚ and absorbed into the blood. GLUT-2 transporters carry glucose in to beta cells via insulin-independent facilitated diffusion. Through rapid glycolysis‚ intracellular glucose is immediately phosphorylated

Pathophysiology of Schizophrenia and Dementia Schizophrenia currently is conceptualized as a broad syndrome expressed by a heterogeneous group of brain disorders rather than as a single disease entity. In addition‚ schizophrenia is viewed as the most severe end of a spectrum of schizophrenia-related disorders. Although placed in the category of "functional" psychiatric disorders‚ schizophrenia is associated primarily with abnormalities of brain neurochemistry‚ neuroanatomy‚ and development. Genetics

Exam Case Scenario Pathophysiology of Asthma Asthma is a chronic lung disease characterized by episodes in which the bronchioles constrict due to oversensitivity. In asthma‚ the airways (bronchioles) constrict making it difficult to get air in or out of the lungs. Breathlessness is the main symptom. The bronchi and bronchioles become inflamed and constricted. Asthmatics usually react to triggers. Triggers are substances and situations that would not normally trouble an asthma free person. Asthma

Cellular Respiration My hypothesis for the germinated pea experiment was that the level of aerobic respiration would increase as the temperature would increase. I also predicted that there would be an upper temperature limit. The experiment proved part of my hypothesis correct and part of it incorrect. I was correct in predicting that the rate would increase as the temperature increase‚ but I was incorrect in hypothesizing that there would be an upper limit. My hypothesis for the larvae experiment

Cellular Respiration Cellular respiration is a chemical process that produces adenosine triphosphate‚ or otherwise known as ATP for energy that is also needed to survive. It leaves waste products‚ carbon dioxide and water‚ which is needed for photosynthesis‚ a process that only plants use. Production of ATP through the process of cellular respiration occurs in the mitochondria of the cytosol inside plant and animal cells. Cellular respiration occurs in three stages‚ Glycolysis‚ which happens in
