CHAPTER THREE: The ABO Blood group and Rhesus systems
CHAPTER THREE: The ABO Blood group and Rhesus systems
Part three. Read parts one and two from here. The presence or absence of genetically determined cell markers on the surfaces of the red blood cell membranes – called antigens, influences the type of blood group a person will have. The antigens are also known as agglutinogens. Each antigen has a corresponding antibody (agglutinin) within the plasma; however, no human has a similar antigen and…

CHAPTER THREE: Blood cells and how they are formed.
CHAPTER THREE: Blood cells and how they are formed.
Part two. Read part one from here. Red bone marrow contains the hematopoietic stem cells that produce all blood cells – red blood cells, white blood cells, and platelets. Hematopoietic stem cells are known as multipotent stem cells due to their ability to produce all the cell lines.  They continually divide: some of the cells remain stem cells: and others commit to divide into myeloid and…

CHAPTER ONE: THE CHEMICAL BASIS OF HUMAN PHYSIOLOGY
CHAPTER ONE: THE CHEMICAL BASIS OF HUMAN PHYSIOLOGY
Human physiology is the study of how the human body works. Understanding the physiological basis of life requires a thorough grasp of its chemistry – the interplay and interconnection between the different states of matter and the hierarchical organization of the human body. Such organization forms the fundamental blocks of the human body – from atoms, molecules, organelles, cells, and tissues,…

Medical Neuroscience from Duke University. Be part of the community.
Medical Neuroscience from Duke University. Be part of the community.
Medical Neuroscience is an online course that Leonard E. White, PhD, teaches from Duke University vis Coursera. With more than 180,000 reviews at a 4.9/5 rating, it’s a no-brainer that Medical Neuroscience is one of the top-notch Massive Open Online Courses on the web. I started the course a few weeks ago as part of my quest to gain a deeper understanding of the intriguingly complex human nervous…

Should you own a crash helmet?
Should you own a crash helmet?
A crash helmet protects the head of a motorcyclist or passenger head in case of a crash. It may sound ridiculous that we are here today to talk about a crash helmet when most of us aren’t sure about our next meal! But that’s not the point – let’s talk about safety. The aim is to survive regardless of the source of your next meal. More motorcycles, hitherto called Boda Bodas, embrace the roads and…

ProstatRelax Capsules: how to correctly use them for your enlarged prostate!
ProstatRelax Capsules: how to correctly use them for your enlarged prostate!
ProstatRelax Capsules are herbal supplements manufactured by BF Suma as an aphrodisiac and sexual performance enhancer; however, they have shown an unprecedented reduction in the prostate gland size among men with an enlarged one – commonly known as benign prostate hyperplasia (BPH). I have prescribed them to several patients with micturition problems due to BPH-induced bladder outlet obstruction…

Carbamates Insecticides and You.
Carbamates Insecticides and You.
Carbamates insecticides are the lesser evils of organophosphates. Exposure leads to similar but less severe adverse effects. But, do not be fooled: always wear full body protective gear when using them. First introduced in 1956, carbamates have progressively replaced organophosphates as insecticides – used in agriculture and humans. They were favoured over the latter due to their low toxicity…

Foetal Haemoglobin to avert sickle cell disease: so near yet, so far away.
Foetal Haemoglobin to avert sickle cell disease: so near yet, so far away.
Haemoglobin is the protein responsible for carrying and delivering oxygen to the tissues from the lungs. We find it in the red blood cells. Several types of haemoglobin exist: however, foetal haemoglobin (HbF), adult haemoglobin (HbA), sickle haemoglobin (HbS), and haemoglobin C (HbC) are pertinent to today’s discussion. Haemoglobin, molecular model. Haemoglobin is a metalloprotein that…

Premature Ventricular Contractions (PVCs). Palpitations should bother you, but to what extent.
Premature Ventricular Contractions (PVCs). Palpitations should bother you, but to what extent.
Premature ventricular contractions (PVCs) are some of the plethoras of causes of palpitations. On one or several occasions, you may feel your heart pulsating, usually during periods of exercise, anger, or anxiety. However, your heartbeat will be regular despite its increased frequency and intensity. But, during similar situations, you may feel one or two extra heartbeats that do not follow the…

Unstable angina. A devastating heart disease you can prevent.
Unstable angina. A devastating heart disease you can prevent.
When blood and oxygen flow to your heart is compromised, you develop chest pain. We term it unstable angina. It may precede a myocardial infarction (heart attack). Unlike other types of angina, this is an emergency: any delay in management may be fatal. The principal cause of unstable angina is a narrowed coronary artery. Usually, an atheroma builds up in one of the branches of the coronary…

Pulmonary Embolism. A blood clot in the lungs may kill you before you know it.
Pulmonary Embolism. A blood clot in the lungs may kill you before you know it.
A third of people with pulmonary embolism die before they reach the hospital. In other words, a blood clot in the lungs kills them before they become aware of its existence. Anything that either slows your blood: thickens it, or damages blood vessels is a risk factor. Diagnosis is challenging because no single symptom is specific to the presence of such clots in the lungs. Treatment involves…

Syncope. What causes fainting? Should it worry you?
Syncope. What causes fainting? Should it worry you?
We define syncope as a transitory loss of consciousness followed by unprompted recovery. In brief, syncope implies fainting. In many instances, this happens suddenly: at other times, you may feel dizzy, lightheaded, sweaty, nauseated, or have blurred vision. Syncope occurs when blood flow to the brain reduces. It is scary and often prompts a hospital visit. Occasionally, there’s no cause for…

Pericarditis. Diagnosis is challenging: recovery takes weeks!
Pericarditis. Diagnosis is challenging: recovery takes weeks!
Pericarditis implies inflammation of the pericardium – a thin fibro-elastic sac that encases your heart. It can be acute, subacute, recurrent, or chronic pericarditis. A diagnosis of pericarditis takes a toll on the intervening clinician because of the various more sinister mimics. It is for this reason that a clinician always consults with a cardiologist before they start treatment.…

Angina. It’s imperative to understand this type of chest pain.
Angina. It’s imperative to understand this type of chest pain.
When blood flow to the heart is compromised, a series of biochemical changes occur due to a lack of oxygen. These changes culminate in a distinct type of chest pain we term angina. It’s imperative to understand it for several reasons: (1) several causes of chest pain may mimic it. (2) it is the most pertinent symptom of ischaemic heart disease that causes significant morbidity and mortality.…

Abdominal aortic aneurysm: controlling blood pressure will save you from the catastrophe.
Abdominal aortic aneurysm: controlling blood pressure will save you from the catastrophe.
An abdominal aortic aneurysm is a bulge in the abdominal aorta, at least 1.5 times the conventional vessel calibre. A life-threatening condition that is often indolent but requires specific treatment and follow-up depending on the nature of the disease. Occasionally, doctors detect them during a routine examination or at the time of rupture. A schematic representation of an abdominal aortic…

Osteoporosis. When you don’t nourish your bones, they break.
Osteoporosis. When you don’t nourish your bones, they break.
With ageing comes the ordeal of a progressive weakening of the body. It is a natural process that prepares you to wind up as you close the book of life. The bones are no exception: they begin thinning and lose mineral density: the process we term osteoporosis. During this, bones spontaneously become brittle and fragile: the hallmark is the increased propensity to fracture after a slight fall…
