Stimulants01:29

Stimulants

591
Stimulants are substances that enhance neural activity and elevate dopamine levels in the brain, leading to their highly addictive nature. These drugs include cocaine, amphetamines, MDMA, caffeine, and nicotine, each with distinct mechanisms of action and varied health implications.
Cocaine can be administered via snorting, injection, or smoking. It primarily functions by blocking the reuptake of dopamine, resulting in a euphoric high characterized by an intense sensation of happiness and...

Teeth01:15

Teeth

1.1K
The formation of teeth, also known as odontogenesis, is a complex process that begins in utero, around the sixth week of embryonic development. There are three stages to this process: the bud stage, the cap stage, and the bell stage.
In the bud stage, the tooth germ (an aggregation of cells) starts to form in the developing jawbone. During the cap stage, the tooth germ differentiates into enamel organ, dental papilla, and dental sac, which will later develop into the tooth's enamel, dentin...

Tooth Anatomy

1.5K
The human tooth enables us to eat a variety of foods, speak clearly, and even aid in shaping our faces. Teeth are composed of various elements that work together. Here's a detailed look at the anatomy of a human tooth.
The Crown, Neck, and Root
The visible part of the tooth is referred to as the crown. It's covered by enamel, the hardest substance in the human body. The crown is uniquely shaped for each type of tooth, allowing for different functions such as cutting, tearing, or...

Methods of Documentation VII: EMR

1.2K
Electronic Medical Records (EMRs) primarily center around electronically documenting patients' health information within a single healthcare organization or practice. They contain essential clinical data related to a patient's medical history, diagnoses, medications, treatment plans, lab results, and other pertinent information relevant to the specific encounter or episode of care. EMRs are designed to streamline documentation and workflow processes within individual healthcare...

Assessing Body Temperature - Oral01:14

Assessing Body Temperature - Oral

1.0K
Here are the steps to accurately measure oral temperature using an electronic thermometer:
Step 1:
Start by practicing proper hand hygiene to prevent the spread of microorganisms.
Step 2:
Take the thermometer out of the charging unit, switch it on, and wait for the ready sign.
Step 3:
Gently slide the probe cover until a click is heard. This simple action prevents cross-contamination and ensures the correct placement of the probe cover.
Step 4:
Instruct the patient to open their mouth and place...

Oral Cavity01:11

Oral Cavity

2.1K
The oral cavity, or the mouth, is a complex structure in humans that plays a vital role in our day-to-day lives. Its role is not only in chewing and swallowing food; it also plays a role in speech and facial expressions.
Teeth: The teeth are the hardest structures in our bodies. Humans have two sets of teeth throughout their lifetime: deciduous (baby) teeth and permanent teeth. Each tooth consists of several parts: the crown (visible part), the root (embedded in the jaw), enamel (hard outer...

    Area of Science:

    • Public Health
    • Toxicology
    • Oral Medicine

    Background:

    • Electronic cigarette (EC) use is increasing globally.
    • Concerns exist regarding ECs' effectiveness for smoking cessation and their safety profile.
    • Emerging evidence suggests ECs may pose risks comparable to combustible tobacco products.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To review the systemic and oral health concerns associated with electronic cigarette use.

    Main Methods:

    • Literature review of recent studies on electronic cigarette health effects.

    Main Results:

    • EC flavoring agents can cause adverse effects similar to traditional smoking.
    • EC aerosols are linked to respiratory, cardiac, and central nervous system diseases.
    • ECs can negatively impact oral mucosa, kidney, and liver function, and pose physical dangers like explosions.

    Conclusions:

    • EC use is associated with significant systemic and oral health risks.
    • ECs should not be considered a healthier alternative to tobacco smoking.
    • Further research is needed to fully understand the long-term health implications of EC use.
