Sodium bicarbonate, commonly known as baking soda, is present in various over-the-counter medications sold to the general public, including for treatment of gastrointestinal symptoms such nausea and dyspepsia. Less well public are severe complications associated with these treatments their overuse, which can lead significant toxicity, metabolic alkalosis electrolyte imbalances, further perpetuating or even worsening acid-base disorder. In this case report, we a 45-year-old woman history...
Studying fatigue is challenging because it influenced by physiological, psychological, and sociological states. Fatigue can be assessed objectively or subjectively, but the literature has difficulty understanding how an analytical test relates to a response via questionnaire. Thus, purpose of this study was evaluate relationships between objective variables (Squat Jump (SJ) Countermovement (CMJ)) measured on day-2 game subjective (Rating Perceived Exertion (RPE) day-3 Hooper Index (HI)...
Lithium has been used in clinical practice since the 1970s. This medication is commonly to treat and prevent bipolar disorder, but it a narrow therapeutic index, making toxicity frequent occurrence. Chronic lithium intoxication can arise due progressive accumulation, particularly contexts of dehydration. The effects chronic on nervous, renal, cardiac systems, as well thyroid parathyroid glands, are documented literature. authors present case 66-year-old woman with schizoaffective psychosis...
Anti-synthetase syndrome (ASS), a rare immunomediated disease, is characterized by multiple signs and symptoms. Not all patients develop the entire clinical spectrum of syndrome, as it often varies depending on involved antibodies. In this case report, 53-year-old non-smoking woman had complaints fatigue dyspnea exertion for five weeks. The outpatient study revealed creatine kinase (CK) 351U/L, ANAs+, anti-SSa+, normal echocardiogram, chest X-ray suggesting imaging suspicion SARS-CoV-2...
Given the posterior chain configuration, it is anticipated that tibial positioning influences hamstring recruitment; medial hamstrings should be more activated during rotation, while lateral rotation. However, most studies showing this pattern have focused on concentric or isometric strength, leaving influence eccentric strength fairly unknown. Therefore, aim of study was to investigate electromyographic response muscles Nordic exercises in three leg positions: internal external and neutral....
Nutcracker syndrome is a clinical condition in which there compression of the left renal vein its path between abdominal aorta and superior mesenteric artery. This phenomenon can cause or low back pain hematuria. It rare entity, although probably underdiagnosed. The diagnosis essentially based on imaging, but necessarily exclusion. We present case 21-year-old boy who came to Emergency Department with hematuria pain. After exhaustive study exclusion other possible entities, was confirmed be...
