Cat Bite- A source of bacteria and several infections

Cat Bites are more serious and dangerous as compared to a dog bite. The research analysis has shown that 1 out of 3 patients wounded by cat bites died in hospital while two third of them had to go through surgical treatment.

This is because of the fact that the cats usually carry various types of bacteria in their mouth which causes infection in tissues, resulting into blood poisoning, also known as septicemia. The most common symptoms of these wound fissures at an early stage include flu and fever and under rare circumstances can lead to patient`s death if the medical treatment is not taken out at the appropriate time.

Several safety measures should be taken in the above case in order to prevent the infection from spreading to surrounding tissues and joints. Cleaning the wound is the first and prime requirement, but scrubbing should be avoided. It is also important to control and stop bleeding by seeking medical attention through a physician.

Bentham Science Publishers is a remarkable name in the STM publishing industry. There are a number of Bentham publications on infection and infectious diseases, such as Anti-Infective Agents, Infectious Disorders-Drug Targets and Recent Patents on Anti-Infective Drug Discovery.

Heavy Drinking:

The intake of excessive drinking can result in accelerated memory loss as well as mental decay. Premature Old Age can also be a symptom of heavy drinking.

Men who consume more than two alcoholic drinks per day during their middle age may speed up the process of memory loss and premature old age up to six years.

Research has deduced that middle-aged men are at higher risk of mental decay, because they are involved in heavy drinking for many years.

Bentham Science Publishers is one of the leading STM publishing companies of the industry. It publishes more than 116 online and print journals and more than 300 eBooks. One of its journals is “Current drug Abuse Reviews.” Current Drug Abuse Reviews aim to publish the highest quality reviews, meta-analyses and drug clinical trial studies on all latest advances on alcohol and drug abuse and addiction.

Google Lenses for Diabetes

For diabetic patients tired with having to use pin prick blood tests every now and then to monitor their blood sugar levels, the good news is that Google has invented a novel pair of contact lenses to keep their glucose levels in check. These contacts come fitted with special sensors, minute transistors and a tiny hair-thin antenna to observe the sugar levels through the tears of the diabetes patient. The readings are then wirelessly transmitted to a handheld monitor device.

Unmanageable blood sugar levels in diabetic patients are hazardous to health and more often than not lead to kidney, eyes and heart problems. Many patients have to administer pin pricks, sometimes more than 10 times in a single day in order to keep an eye on their glucose levels, as is evident from the case of Michael Vahradian, who finds it rather cumbersome to use them. Google lens, which will be available in markets in about 5 years, will revolutionize the way diabetes blood sugar levels are monitored and will ease the process for millions around the world.

Google is best known as a search engine and advertising company. However, it has launched a number of other useful wearable products, like Google Glass and a special pair of glasses fitted with cameras and a small computer display. Although, research on contact lenses for monitoring blood sugar levels started many years ago at the University of Washington, it was Google really which made the project a reality. The man behind the invention, Brian Otis expresses his opinion:

“You can take it to a certain level in an academic setting, but at Google we were given the latitude to invest in this project.”

The Chairperson of the board of the American Diabetes Association is pleased with the efforts of the researchers and scientists who are working tirelessly to come up with novel and better solutions for patients suffering from diabetes. Readers can refer to Current Diabetes Reviews by Bentham Science Publishers for the latest developments in the field of diabetes and its cures. A Bentham eBook, Epidemiology of Type 2 Diabetes is also a useful guide on diabetes epidemiology.

Bentham Science e-books: Orthodontic Treatment of Class III Malocclusion:

Bentham Science presents numerous eBooks that covers all major fields of natural science, technology, humanities and medicine. Bentham e-book offers authors flexible publication solutions. These electronic books are rapidly published using state-of-the-art internet technology.

Orthodontic Treatment of Class III Malocclusion is a clinical textbook which highlights both research findings as well as clinical treatment of patients with Class III malocclusions. The volume equips readers with a critical review of present information about the craniofacial biology behind various treatment strategies, diagnosis and treatment planning in both growing and non-growing Class III patients and contemporary orthodontic appliances using implants and miniscrews.

The book is divided into sections proving evidence-based research on the genetic and epigenetic factors, contemporary diagnosis and treatment planning for patients, early treatment of class III problems, treatment of class III problems in the adolescents, surgical treatment of adult class III patients and treatment of class III problems in patients with craniofacial anomalies.

A journal podcaston titled:“Fish Oil has Beneficial Effects on Behavior Impairment and Oxidative Stress in Rats Subjected to a Hepatic Encephalopathy Model” by Dr. AneteC.Ferraz

Here’s the Abstract:

Hepatic encephalopathy (HE) is a severe neuropsychiatric complication of liver failure, in which there is injury to brain cells, particularly neurons and glia. Brain cells and their function are greatly influenced by omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids, essential components of cell membrane phospholipids in the brain that are crucial to normal function. In summary, FO protected against spatial memory deficits and oxidative stress caused by HE in rats subjected to liver lesion due to TAA intoxication. Further studies are necessary to understand the mechanism underlying FO behaviors in rats subjected to encephalopathy.

Speech and Brain Activity:

According to a recent research, it is concluded that speech, head injuries, stroke, brain and communication disorders are treatable as brain covers both sides of the brain. This study reveals that at a time only one side of the brain is used and there is a direct relationship between speech and brain activity.

The researchers focused on various parts of the brain during speech. The participants were asked to repeat non- words like “pob” and “kig.” This experiment brought to light that these non-words trigger brain activities which allowed the researchers to separate speech from language.

The results obtained through this research helped in the better understanding of the speech generation within the brain and also led to innovative techniques for the treatment of speech related disorders.

Bentham Science Publishers is a remarkable name in the STM Publishing industry, having journals and eBooks on various genres including; natural science, information technology, medicine etc. Bentham Science Publishers has an impact factor journal named “Neuroscience and Biomedical Engineering” which can assist researchers for additional research on the subject. 

Hypertension

Hypertension, which is referred to as high blood pressure, is a common condition in which the arteries have constant high blood pressure.  The Blood pressure is basically the force that is pushing up against the vessel walls of blood.

Each time the heart beats, it pushes the blood to the whole body via arteries. The more high the pressure, the tougher the heart has to pump.

Hypertension is a disease which can further lead to damaged organs and various illnesses that include heart failure or stroke. The normal consistent blood pressure level should be 120/80, where 120 signifies systolic pressure (the highest pressure in arteries) whereas 80 symbolizes diastolic (the minimum pressure in the arteries). However, if the blood pressure exceeds from 80/120 to 139/89, then it is called pre-hypertension. If it reaches to 140/90 or more than that, it is considered as high blood pressure or Hypertension.

There are many factors that can be highly linked with this condition which includes; obesity, smoking, diabetes, lack of any physical activity, deficiency of vitamin D, stress, aging and also it comes through genes.

Bentham Science Publishers is a reputable name in the publishing industry, it has more than 160 journals and a variety of eBooks. Current Hypertension Reviews publishes frontier reviews, original research articles and guest edited thematic issues on all the latest advances on hypertension and its related areas e.g. nephrology, clinical care, and therapy. The journal’s aim is to publish the highest quality review articles dedicated to clinical research n the field. The journal is essential for all the clinicians and researchers in the field of hypertension.
