Open Angle Glaucoma: Treatment01:27

Open Angle Glaucoma: Treatment

1.0K
In open-angle glaucoma, the iridocorneal angle remains open, but the trabecular meshwork becomes stiff, slowing down the outflow of aqueous humor. This causes a buildup of aqueous humor in the anterior chamber, leading to a sudden increase in intraocular pressure. The treatment for open-angle glaucoma focuses on reducing the elevated intraocular pressure by either decreasing the secretion of aqueous humor or increasing its outflow.
Drugs such as carbonic anhydrase inhibitors, α2- and...

Treatment Resistant Cancers

3.8K
Cancer is the second leading cause of death in the United States. A cancer cell is genetically unstable and hence can mutate faster. They can also modify their microenvironment and escape immune surveillance. The difficulties in treating cancer are further compounded by the emergence of rapid resistance to anticancer drugs. The most common ways to attain resistance in cancer cells include alteration in drug transport and metabolism, modification of drug target, elevated DNA damage response, or...

Parkinson's Disease: Treatment

1.2K
Neurodegenerative disorders, such as Parkinson's Disease (PD), involve the gradual and irreversible destruction of neurons in particular brain areas. These disorders exhibit standard features like proteinopathies, selective vulnerability of some neurons, and an interaction of intrinsic properties, genetics, and environmental influences in neural injury.
Parkinson's Disease is primarily a result of the loss of dopaminergic neurons in the substantia nigra pars compacta. The cornerstone of...

Alzheimer's Disease: Treatment

975
Alzheimer's Disease (AD), a neurodegenerative disorder, is pathologically identified by amyloid plaques and neurofibrillary tangles composed of tau protein. AD pharmacotherapy aims to manage cognitive symptoms, delay disease progression, and treat behavioral symptoms. The treatment is primarily symptomatic and palliative, with no definitive disease-modifying therapy available. Cholinesterase inhibitors, including donepezil (Aricept), rivastigmine (Exelon), and galantamine (Razadyne), are...

Anticholinesterase Agents: Poisoning and Treatment01:26

Anticholinesterase Agents: Poisoning and Treatment

1.7K
Anticholinesterases, also known as cholinesterase inhibitors, work by blocking the breakdown of acetylcholine, leading to its accumulation in the synaptic cleft. This accumulation indirectly enhances both muscarinic and nicotinic actions. These agents are classified as reversible or irreversible based on their mechanism of action.     
Irreversible agents form a strong bond with the cholinesterase enzyme, making it inactive. The breakdown of the phosphorylated enzyme is...

Angle Closure Glaucoma: Treatment01:28

Angle Closure Glaucoma: Treatment

1.3K
Angle-closure glaucoma, or closed-angle glaucoma, is an eye condition where the iris bulges out and blocks the iridocorneal angle, resulting in a buildup of aqueous humor and increased intraocular pressure. Immediate medical attention is necessary due to the sudden onset of symptoms. The treatment for angle-closure glaucoma includes short-term and long-term approaches. Short-term treatment involves using eye drops like pilocarpine to lower intraocular pressure by increasing aqueous humor...

Background:

  • Snapping hip, or coxa saltans, is characterized by an audible or palpable hip snap during motion.
  • It affects up to 10% of the general population, particularly athletes like dancers, soccer players, weightlifters, and runners.
  • Diagnosing the underlying cause can be challenging despite the distinct snapping sound.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review common and uncommon causes of snapping hip.
  • To highlight the role of advanced imaging techniques in understanding snapping hip mechanisms.
  • To present an image-guided algorithm for diagnosing and managing snapping hip.

Main Methods:

  • Review of literature on snapping hip causes and diagnostic modalities.
  • Discussion of advanced imaging techniques, including real-time evaluation of moving structures.
  • Presentation of an image-guided diagnostic and therapeutic algorithm.

Main Results:

  • Snapping hip causes are categorized as extra-articular (internal/external) and intra-articular.
  • Advanced imaging enhances diagnostic accuracy by visualizing dynamic hip structures.
  • Image-guided treatments aid in the diagnostic work-up of complex hip pain.

Conclusions:

  • Advanced imaging significantly improves the understanding and diagnosis of snapping hip.
  • An image-guided approach provides a structured method for identifying surgical candidates.
