Compounds Essential to Human Function01:25

Compounds Essential to Human Function

10.5K
The human body is composed of cells that are fundamentally made up of several different molecules. These molecules are essential to carry out all physiological processes in the body and are broadly classified into organic and inorganic based on their chemical structures.
Inorganic Compounds Essential to Human Functioning
Inorganic compounds essential to human functioning include water, salts, acids, and bases. These compounds are inorganic, i.e., they do not have a carbon-hydrogen bond. Water...

Essential Minerals for Bone Health01:31

Essential Minerals for Bone Health

6.5K
The minerals contained in all of the food we consume are essential for our organ systems. However, certain essential minerals, such as calcium, phosphorus, magnesium, manganese, and fluoride, largely affect bone health.
Calcium and Phosphorus
Calcium is a critical component of bones, especially in the form of calcium phosphate and calcium carbonate. Since the body cannot make calcium, it must be obtained from the diet. However, calcium cannot be absorbed from the small intestine without...

Key Elements for Plant Nutrition02:35

Key Elements for Plant Nutrition

24.4K
Like all living organisms, plants require organic and inorganic nutrients to survive, reproduce, grow and maintain homeostasis. To identify nutrients that are essential for plant functioning, researchers have leveraged a technique called hydroponics. In hydroponic culture systems, plants are grown—without soil—in water-based solutions containing nutrients. At least 17 nutrients have been identified as essential elements required by plants. Plants acquire these elements from the...

Eukaryotic Transcription Activators02:42

Eukaryotic Transcription Activators

12.9K
Transcription activators are proteins that promote the transcription of genes from DNA to RNA. In most cases, these proteins contain two separate domains ‒ a domain that binds to DNA and a domain for activating transcription; however, in some cases, a single domain is responsible for both binding and activation of transcription, as seen in the glucocorticoid receptor and MyoD.
The binding domains are capable of recognizing and interacting with regulatory sequences on the DNA. These...

Water and Mineral Acquisition02:34

Water and Mineral Acquisition

35.9K
Specialized tissues in plant roots have evolved to capture water, minerals, and some ions from the soil. Roots exhibit a variety of branching patterns that facilitate this process. The outermost root cells have specialized structures called root hairs that increase the root surface, thus increasing soil contact. Water can passively cross into roots, as the concentration of water in the soil is higher than that of the root tissue. Minerals, in contrast, are actively transported into root cells.

Ligand Binding and Linkage00:49

Ligand Binding and Linkage

5.6K
Allosteric proteins have more than one ligand binding site; the binding of a ligand to any of these sites influences the binding of ligands to the other sites. When a protein is allosteric, its binding sites are called coupled or linked.  In the case of enzymes, the site that binds to the substrate is known as the active site and the other site is known as the regulatory site. When a ligand binds to the regulatory site, this leads to conformational changes in the protein that can influence...

Summary
This summary is machine-generated.

Pediatric tremor, a common movement disorder, requires careful evaluation of its characteristics, associated symptoms, and medication effects for accurate diagnosis and management. Effective pharmacologic treatments for tremor remain challenging, necessitating a comprehensive approach.

Area of Science:

  • Pediatric Neurology
  • Movement Disorders

Background:

  • Tremor is a frequent presenting complaint in pediatric neurology.
  • Tremors can stem from primary causes or secondary to systemic/neurologic conditions.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review the clinical examination, classification, and diagnosis of pediatric tremor.
  • To outline the pathophysiology and discuss treatment options for various tremor forms.

Main Methods:

  • Review of clinical examination techniques for tremor assessment.
  • Classification systems for pediatric tremors.
  • Discussion of diagnostic criteria and differential diagnoses.
  • Overview of pathophysiologic mechanisms.
  • Evaluation of current pharmacologic and non-pharmacologic treatment strategies.

Main Results:

  • Accurate classification is crucial for diagnosis and management.
  • Phenomenology, associated neurologic signs, and medication influences are key assessment components.
  • Objective assessment of tremor severity and functional impairment guides treatment decisions.

Conclusions:

  • Effective pharmacologic treatment for pediatric tremor is often disappointing.
  • A thorough clinical evaluation, precise classification, and consideration of functional impact are essential for optimal patient care.
  • Further research into more effective therapeutic interventions is warranted.
