Disorders of the Nervous Tissue01:28

Disorders of the Nervous Tissue

1.0K
Nervous tissue is a vital component of the human body's communication system, enabling us to perceive and respond to stimuli. However, like all other tissues, it is vulnerable to disorders and diseases that can significantly impact our neurological functioning.
Homeostatic Imbalances:
Alzheimer's disease manifests as a gradual decline in memory and cognitive abilities, attributed to the buildup of amyloid plaques and neurofibrillary tangles in the brain.
Parkinson's disease arises...

Neural Regulation

Digestion begins with a cephalic phase that prepares the digestive system to receive food. When our brain processes visual or olfactory information about food, it triggers impulses in the cranial nerves innervating the salivary glands and stomach to prepare for food.

Psychoneuroimmunology: Cardiovascular Disease

23
Psychoneuroimmunology (PNI) is a multidisciplinary field that examines how psychological factors, particularly stress, interact with the immune system and impact physical health. Research in PNI has shown that chronic or traumatic stress can disrupt both the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis and the sympathetic nervous system. These disruptions contribute to serious health conditions, including cardiovascular diseases.
A key area of focus in PNI is the relationship between stress and coronary...

Excitatory and Inhibitory Effects of Neurotransmitters01:29

Excitatory and Inhibitory Effects of Neurotransmitters

9.7K
When an action potential reaches the presynaptic axon terminal, it releases neurotransmitters from the neuron into the synaptic cleft at a chemical synapse. The released neurotransmitter can be excitatory or inhibitory. The critical criteria commonly used to determine whether a molecule is a neurotransmitter at a chemical synapse are the molecule's presence in the presynaptic neuron. Second, its release is in response to strong presynaptic depolarization. And lastly, the presence of...

Area of Science:

  • Environmental Science
  • Neurology
  • Public Health

Background:

  • Climate change, driven by industrial gases, significantly impacts global human health.
  • This review focuses on the specific effects of climate change on neurological disorders.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review current knowledge on climate change's impact on neurological diseases.
  • To highlight the link between global warming and increased disease incidence and mortality.

Main Methods:

  • A comprehensive literature search was performed using PubMed, Web of Science, and Scopus.
  • No restrictions were placed on study language, sex, age, date, or country.

Main Results:

  • High temperatures correlate with increased Alzheimer's disease mortality and hospital admissions.
  • Parkinson's disease patients are more vulnerable to heat than dementia patients.
  • Global warming is linked to rising rates of Tick-borne encephalitis, Japanese encephalitis, and ciguatera fish poisoning.

Conclusions:

  • Climate change-related health consequences are unavoidable.
  • Increased healthcare burdens are expected for elderly populations, infectious diseases, and ciguatera fish poisoning.
  • Understanding global warming trends is crucial for future health predictions and climate change adaptation.
