What is intracranial hypertension The syndrome of intracranial hypertension is an increased intracranial pressure( intracranial pressure - in the subarachnoid, epidural spaces, cerebral ventricles, venous sinuses of the brain) .This condition is also called a cerebro-hypertensive syndrome or a syndrome of cerebrospinal hypertension, due to the fact that this pathology affects the overall pressure in the cerebrospinal fluid system. It occurs, as a rule, against the background of a head ...
Causes of fungal angina The human body is inhabited by a variety of bacteria, fungi and microbes. They perfectly co-exist with each other, without harming the carrier under normal conditions. If the activity of the microflora is disturbed, the pathogen microorganisms multiply. One of these microbes is the causative agent of pharyngicemia. Fungal angina is an infectious disease that occurs when the mucous larynx is affected by yeast-like fungi of the genus Candida in symbiosis with other ...
Erection in the morning - a measure of male health Erection is characterized as a condition in which the flow of blood into the male sexual organ increases, which leads to the filling of cavities of cavernous bodies, structural units of the penis. This is a natural process, during which the member hardens, lengthens, thickens until completely filled with a liquid medium. Seated-cavernous muscles are attached to the base of the penis. When the blood begins to fill the penis, they contract...
What is hyperbaric oxygenation A medical procedure called hyperbaric oxygenation( HBO) consists of oxygenation of body cells. This manipulation is carried out in a special pressure chamber. The essence of the method consists in supplying oxygen to a single hyperbaric chamber under pressure exceeding atmospheric pressure. Oxygen dosage is calculated individually for each individual patient to avoid discomfort and adverse reactions. Nuances: It is believed that after the procedure th...
Testosterone functions in the female body The main male sex hormone testosterone is produced in the female body by the adrenal cortex and ovaries, a small percentage is produced in the epithelial tissue and placenta. The production of androgen is regulated by the hypothalamic-pituitary system, it participates in the regulation of such processes as: formation of skeletal bone tissue, ensuring its density. intensity of sexual desire; production of ova; maintenance of normal...
What is hypertensive disease This disease is a persistent increase in blood pressure above 140/90 mm Hg. Art. Such a pathology is typical for people over 55 years of age, but in the modern world young people also face it. Any person has two kinds of pressure: systolic or upper - reflects the force with which blood presses on large arterial vessels during compression of the heart; diastolic - shows the level of blood pressure on the walls of the vessels when the heart muscle rela...
Why the hormone testosterone is needed The sex hormone testosterone( androgen) is called a masculine entity. This is the leading androgen( steroid) in the body of a man, most of which is synthesized from cholesterol in the ovaries, a small amount is produced by the adrenal cortex. The effect of the hormone occurs in two main directions: Androgenic. The hormone coordinates the functioning of the reproductive system. During puberty, adolescents promote the development of male organs ...
What is testosterone This biologically active compound belongs to the androgen group .Testosterone is produced from cholesterol. The starting form of the substance has little activity. The hormone passes into the working state( dihydrosterone) in the presence of 5-alpha-reductase. The synthesis of testosterone is carried out by Leydig cells, which are part of the male sex glands. In addition, the production of the hormone is derived from androstenedione - the secretory product of the re...
