Pathophysiology of pain

Disease-a-Month, 2013
Pain occurring at the end of life is often a complex amalgam of symptoms that arise from neuropathic, somatic, and visceral pain syndromes. Likewise, the stimuli from which the pain syndromes originate are complex and may include inflammatory, neuropathic, and ischemic components.

Migraine, Pathophysiology

Headache: The Journal of Head and Face Pain, 2005
A combination of basic science and human physiology, particularly functional neuroimaging, has radically altered our understanding of migraine with a focus on brain mechanisms for this common and disabling disorder. Genetic studies have begun to provide plausible targets for the basic molecular defect in terms of ion channels, albeit thus far in the ...

Pathophysiology of dystonia

Current Opinion in Neurology, 2009
In the past 18 months, several important studies in neuroimaging, epidemiology of dystonia and animal models have been published. Moreover, new advances in genetics have broadened the spectrum of dystonia. Here, we discuss these findings and their implication in the pathophysiology of dystonia.From neurophysiological studies and animal models ...

The Pathophysiology of Diarrhea

Clinical Transplantation, 1996
Abstract Diarrhea is a very common event after transplantation, but its cause may be difficult to identify. The first step in determining the cause in any particular case is an understanding of the etiology of diarrhea in general. Although diarrhea often is categorized into such types as secretory versus osmotic, or electrolyte transport‐related versus

The porphyrias: pathophysiology

Internal and Emergency Medicine, 2010
Porphyrias are a group of inherited and acquired metabolic disorders due to a defect in haem biosynthesis. An enzymatic defect at different steps of haem synthesis leads to tissue accumulation and excessive excretion of porphyrins and/or their toxic precursors.

Pathophysiology of Dyspnea

New England Journal of Medicine, 1995
Dyspnea may be defined as an uncomfortable sensation of breathing. The sense of respiratory effort, chemoreceptor stimulation, mechanical stimuli arising in lung and chest wall receptors, and neuroventilatory dissociation may all contribute to the sensation of dyspnea.

The Pathophysiology of Angiogenesis

Critical Reviews in Oral Biology & Medicine, 1995
The formation of new capillary blood vessels, a process termed "angiogenesis", is one of the most pervasive and fundamentally essential biological processes encountered in mammalian organisms. Angiogenesis is an important event in a variety of physiological settings, such as embryonic development, chronic inflammation, and wound repair.

Pathophysiology of prediabetes

Current Diabetes Reports, 2009
The term prediabetes refers to subjects with impaired fasting glucose and/or impaired glucose tolerance who are at increased risk for type 2 diabetes mellitus. Although both types of patients are at increased risk for developing type 2 diabetes mellitus and cardiovascular disease, they manifest distinct metabolic abnormalities.

Pathophysiology of bacteremia

The American Journal of Medicine, 1983
Despite the frequency and importance of both nosocomial and "community-acquired" bacteremia, definitive information concerning crucial pathophysiologic events in human bacteremia remains sparse. An extensive variety of clinical manifestations, such as fever, rigors, shock, altered circulatory dynamics, cutaneous manifestations changes in the ...
