Pathophysiology Infection and inflammation of the kidneys is called pyelonephritis. Pyelonephritis is a type of urinary tract infection. E. coli is the most common microbe that causes pyelonephritis. It usually begins in the urethra or bladder and travels to the kidneys. There is a chance of it spreading to the calyces and medullary tissues such as the tubules of the nephrons. If not treated the glomeruli will also be infected and inflamed. (Bullock & Hales 2013). There is both acute pyelonephritis

In ischemic stroke‚ which represents about 80% of all strokes‚ decreased or absent circulating blood deprives neurons of necessary substrates. The effects of ischemia are fairly rapid because the brain does not store glucose‚ the chief energy substrate and is incapable of anaerobic

Chronic pancreatitis pathophysiology is unclear. However‚ Long tern alcohol use causes hypersecretion of protein in pancreatic productions‚ this then causes protein plugs and calculi to form inside the pancreatic channels. Therefore‚ alcohol abuse has a direct poisonous impact on the cells of the pancreas. Subsequently‚ patients with eating regimens such as low protein and high or low in fat are more at risk. Smoking is another aspect on the improvement of chronic pancreatitis (J V. Tsirambidis‚

Analysis: Which sample do you suspect has diabetes mellitus? Provide your reasons. Diabetes mellitus is a condition created by the inadequate secretion of insulin from the pancreas. Insulin is a hormone that allows your body to use carbohydrates or store them for future use. Inadequate amounts of insulin causes a condition called hyperglycemia‚ which is an excessive amount of glucose in the blood stream. When the blood is filtered through the kidney‚ a large of amount of glucose is retained in the

PATHOPHYSIOLOGY OF MYOCARDIAL INFARCTION Mechanisms of Occlusion Most MIs are caused by a disruption in the vascular endothelium associated with an unstable atherosclerotic plaque that stimulates the formation of an intracoronary thrombus‚ which results in coronary artery blood flow occlusion. If such an occlusion persists long enough (20 to 40 min)‚ irreversible myocardial cell damage and cell death will occur.5 The development of atherosclerotic plaque occurs over a period of years to decades

Diabetes Mellitus The main function of insulin is to maintain blood glucose homeostasis‚ Insulin also controls the transport of glucose from the bloodstream into the muscle and fat cells. The effect that insulin has on cells is that when blood glucose rises the pancreas respond by secreting into the bloodstream thus Insulin moves glucose from the blood into the cells. When insulin is not there or it doesn’t work blood glucose regulation fails and blood glucose levels rise so this shows that blood

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
