Overview
B-complex vitamins are needed for a healthy liver, healthy skin, hair, and eyes, and to help the nervous system function properly. Niacin also helps the body make various sex and stress-related hormones in the adrenal glands and other parts of the body.


Vitamin Toxicity
The acute toxic dose for vitamin D has not been established. The chronic toxic dose is more than 50,000 IU/day in adults. In infants younger than 6 months, 1,000 IU/day may be considered unsafe. However, a wide variance in potential toxicity exists for vitamin D.


Vitamin Toxicity
Supplements are typically 10,000-50,000 international units (IU) per capsule. Fish-liver oils may contain more than 180,000 IU/g. The acute toxic dose of vitamin A is 25,000 IU/kg, and the chronic toxic dose is 4000 IU/kg every day for 6-15 months. (Beta-carotene [ie, provitamin A] is converted to retinol but not rapidly enough for acute toxicity.)


Vitamin A
Retinol and carotenoid levels are typically measured in plasma, and plasma retinol levels are useful for assessing vitamin A inadequacy. However, their value for assessing marginal vitamin A status is limited because they do not decline until vitamin A levels in the liver are almost depleted [3].

Magnesium: historical information
In 1618 a farmer by the name of Henry Wicker at Epsom in England attempted to give his cows water from a well. They refused to drink because bitter taste of the water. However the farmer noticed that the water seemed to heal scratches and rashes. The fame of Epsom salts spread. Eventually it was recognized to be magnesium sulphate, MgSO4.

Magnesium is an alkaline earth metal and is the second element located in the second row of the periodic table. It is the eighth most abundant element on Earth. Magnesium atoms have 12 electrons and 12 protons. There are two valence electrons in the outer shell.


Joseph Black  (1728-1799)
Black established this was a form of air, but that it was different from 'common elastic air'. He reasoned that this air must have been 'fixed' within the magnesium compound, so called it 'fixed air'. He noted that fixed air: 1  Was heavier than common air. 2  Could extinguish a flame. 3  Would suffocate an animal.

Joseph Black realised that air was not the only gas, and discovered carbon dioxide. He also made discoveries about heat and temperature and latent heat.


Access control options: a guide to electric lock solutions
Electric strike locks tend to be more expensive and more complicated to install as they require various components and wiring. Moreover, if the door can be opened with just the handle from the inside (rather than a release button) then it is impossible to track exits through the door on the access control system.


Electric Strikes and Locks
To simplify installation, it is important to use locks that require less than 500ma of current. This allows the reader to be powered over Ethernet. The electric locks from Rutherford Controls are examples of this type of low power lock.Electric strikes generally come in two basic configurations:Fail-secure. Also called Fail-locked or non-fail safe. In this configuration, applying electrical current to the strike will cause it to open.


Electric strike
There are many manufacturers of electric strikes, and there are many things that have to be considered when buying one, i.e., type of jamb, type of locking hardware, whether one requires fail-secure or fail-safe, length of latch, depth of jamb, voltage requirements and the length of the faceplate.


Electric Strikes and Locks

How to Prevent and Treat Bug Bites and Stings in Kids
Symptoms of Bug Bites and Stings in Children. The symptoms that can be caused by insect bites depend on the type of insect and how sensitive you are to it. Symptoms can vary from mild swelling, pain, itchiness and redness to large blisters or life-threatening anaphylactic reactions.


All About Yellow Jackets, Bees and Their Kin
A few yellow jackets here and there are a nuisance, but a nest of them in your yard can pose a real hazard. Yellow jackets often nest underground in rodent burrows, so if you see lots of flying insects emerging from a hole in the ground, they're probably yellow jackets.


How to Prevent and Treat Bug Bites and Stings in Kids
Among the arthropods that often bite and sting are spiders, ticks, mites, mosquitoes, flies, fleas, ants, bees, and wasps. While most insect bites only result in mild local reactions, they can cause more serious conditions, such as anaphylactic reactions and Lyme disease.


Insects: Can a wasp sting you multiple times or does it need to 'recharge' its sting?
Wasps can sting multiple times. They may eventually run low on their stored venom, however. Nonetheless, they can still poke you with the stinger. They will soon generate more venom. After the first or second sting, they may also increase the likelihood that they'll suffer from being swatted.


Which insects sting and how?
The stinging apparatus is located in the abdomen of the female insect and consists of a sac containing venom and a barbed stinger. When a bee stings, the apparatus becomes detached from the insect leading to its death, hence bees can only sting once. However wasps can sting multiple times and do not leave their sting behind in the skin. A sting from a wasp causes a sharp pain that usually lasts for a few seconds.

People often think, Bees! but these uninvited guests are just as likely to be yellow jackets, a type of ground-nesting wasp. Often confused with bees, yellow jackets are much more aggressive, and most reported bee stings may in fact be yellow jacket stings.


-
A wasp/hornet/yellow jacket can sting you multiple times because it has a smooth stinger unlike homeybees which have barbed stingers. In most of the cases, there is no sti ger present in the place where the wasp has stung you. However, multiple wasp stings can be fatal and nees immediate medical attention.

Right-Hemisphere Stroke means a stroke in the right hemisphere of the brain. In very general terms, the most noticeable effect of a right-hemisphere stroke is physical paralysis of the left side of the patient's body. Also referred to as right-side stroke and right-brain stroke.


Read the Story of a Patient Diagnosed with Cerebrovascular Disease
A stroke results from one of two events, a clot or hemorrhage. Strokes Resulting From Blood Clots (Ischemic Strokes). The most common type of stroke, resulting in 70% to 80% of all cases, is caused by a blood clot or other particles blocking blood flow to the brain. This type of stroke is divided into two categories: Cerebral Thrombosis, and Cerebral Embolism.


Stroke
Think of a stroke as a  brain attack  - it is an emergency! Because a stroke can damage brain tissue, every minute counts. When symptoms appear call 911 immediately.


Stroke  In-Depth Report
A subarachnoid hemorrhage is bleeding on the surface of the brain, between the brain and the skull, also caused by a burst blood vessel. A fifth type of Stroke, called a TIA (transient ischemic attack) is caused by a temporary decrease in blood supply to the brain, but symptoms usually resolve within 24 hours. Unlike the other types of Stroke, TIAs donât leave lasting effects.


Stroke
A hemorrhagic stroke can be caused by rupture of tiny arteries within the brain tissue (intracerebral hemorrhage). As blood collects, a hematoma or blood clot forms causing increased pressure on the brain. Hypertension is the leading cause of ICH.


Stroke
Even if stroke symptoms disappear, they are a clear warning that a larger stroke may follow. 1  Sudden weakness or numbness of the face, arm or leg, usually on one side of the body. 2  Difficulty speaking or understanding language. 3  Decreased or blurred vision in one or both eyes. 4  Sudden, severe headaches.


-
There are four types of Stroke. Cerebral thrombus is a blockage caused by a blood clot in a brain artery, usually due to atherosclerosis. Cerebral embolus is a blood clot formed outside the brain that travels to the brain to cause blockage of a brain artery.


Overview
All Strokes, regardless of cause, disrupt the flow of blood through the brain and damage brain tissue. It is important to get medical care immediately if a Stroke is suspected. The longer a Stroke goes untreated, the greater the potential for brain damage and disability.

A knee jerk is a spinal reflex. In a spinal reflex, a sensation is relayed to neurons in the spinal cord via a sensory pathway. Neurons in the spinal cord create reflexes that occur independent of the brain.The spinal nerves, which carry signals to and from the brain, make most of the body's functions, such as movement, and senses, possible.A spinal reflex will bypass the brain and is an action only by the cells in the spinal cord. spinal reflex will bypass the brain and is an action only by the cells in the spinal cord.

What is a Spinal Reflex?
A spinal reflex is a reflexive action mediated by cells in the spinal cord, bypassing the brain altogether. A classic example is the kneejerk or patellar reflex, where the leg jerks when the kneecap is struck with a brisk tap. spinal reflex will bypass the brain and is an action only by the cells in the spinal cord.


Spinal Reflex
a reflex whose center is located in the spinal cord. There are four types of spinal reflexes: somatic (motor), autonomic, segmental, and intersegmental.egmental spinal reflexes occur within a single segment of the spinal cord, and intersegmental spinal reflexes enter and emerge from different spinal segments. Depending on the structure of the reflex arcs, spinal reflexes may be monosynaptic or polysynaptic.


What is the Spinal Reflex Arc?
A spinal reflex is an automatic, rapid response to a stimulus. The action is involuntary and occurs without any involvement of thought or the brain.In humans, this action occurs through a neural pathway called the reflex arc. spinal reflex is an automatic, rapid response to a stimulus. The action is involuntary and occurs without any involvement of thought or the brain.

The knee jerk is an example of the simplest type of reflex. When the knee is tapped, the nerve that receives this stimulus sends an impulse to the spinal cord, where it is relayed to a motor nerve.This causes the quadriceps muscle at the front of the thigh to contract and jerk the leg up.

Ligament Injuries of the Wrist
A wrist injury that causes a partial injury to a ligament, a true wrist sprain, may simply be treated with a cast or splint for three to six weeks to allow the ligament to heal.rist injuries are common. If a wrist injury causes significant damage to the ligaments, it can result in serious problems in the wrist. Such an injury typically continues to cause problems unless corrected. This guide will help you understand. 1  how ligament injuries of the wrist occur.


Ligament Injuries of the Wrist
Any kind of injury to the wrist joint can alter how the joint works. After a wrist injury, ligament damage may result in an unstable joint.
