Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever (CCHF) is a tick-borne zoonotic disease caused by CCHF virus and characterized by initial fever, headache, and malaise followed by gastrointestinal symptoms and, in severe cases, bleeding, shock, and multi-organ system failure. Epidemiology CCHF is endemic throughout Africa, the Balkans, the Middle East, and western Asia. Cases are usually sporadic, although small nosocomial outbreaks sometimes occur when proper infection control practices are not maintained. Around 500 cases are reported per year worldwide, although systematic surveillance is lacking. Clinical description The incubation period is typically 3-7 days from animal exposure and 1-3 days from a tick bite.

The trait is age- and sex-dependent, being rare in young children and more frequent in males. Instances of involvement in multiple generations were reviewed by Hrdlicka (1935).

For example, familial hypercholesterolemia (Type IIa hyperlipoproteinemia) may be associated with xanthelasma palpebrarum (yellowish patches underneath the skin around the eyelids), [13] arcus senilis (white or gray discoloration of the peripheral cornea ), [14] and xanthomata (deposition of yellowish cholesterol-rich material) of the tendons , especially of the fingers. [15] [16] Type III hyperlipidemia may be associated with xanthomata of the palms, knees and elbows. [15] Causes [ edit ] Formula structure of cholesterol Hypercholesterolemia is typically due to a combination of environmental and genetic factors. [10] Environmental factors include weight, diet , and stress . [10] [17] Loneliness is also a risk factor. [18] Medical conditions and treatments [ edit ] A number of other conditions can also increase cholesterol levels including diabetes mellitus type 2 , obesity , alcohol use, monoclonal gammopathy , dialysis therapy, nephrotic syndrome , hypothyroidism , Cushing’s syndrome and anorexia nervosa . [10] Several medications and classes of medications may interfere with lipid metabolism: thiazide diuretics , ciclosporin , glucocorticoids , beta blockers , retinoic acid , antipsychotics ), [10] certain anticonvulsants and medications for HIV as well as interferons . [19] Genetics [ edit ] Genetic contributions are usually due to the additive effects of multiple genes ("polygenic"), though occasionally may be due to a single gene defect such as in the case of familial hypercholesterolaemia . [10] In familial hypercholesterolemia, mutations may be present in the APOB gene ( autosomal dominant ), the autosomal recessive LDLRAP1 gene, autosomal dominant familial hypercholesterolemia ( HCHOLA3 ) variant of the PCSK9 gene, or the LDL receptor gene . [20] Familial hypercholesterolemia affects about one in five hundred people. [9] Diet [ edit ] Diet has an effect on blood cholesterol, but the size of this effect varies between individuals. [21] [22] Moreover, when dietary cholesterol intake goes down, production (principally by the liver) [23] typically increases, so that blood cholesterol changes can be modest [24] or even elevated.

The most frequent cause of seizures in children is febrile seizures, which happen in 2–5% of children between the ages of six months and five years. [25] During childhood, well-defined epilepsy syndromes are generally seen. In adolescence and young adulthood, non-compliance with the medication regimen and sleep deprivation are potential triggers. ...

In children it is typically only needed after a second seizure. ... "Chapter 9: Classification of seizures and epilepsy syndromes" (PDF) .

Overview A seizure is a sudden, uncontrolled burst of electrical activity in the brain. It can cause changes in behavior, movements, feelings and levels of consciousness. Having two or more seizures at least 24 hours apart that don't have a known cause is considered to be epilepsy. There are many types of seizures, and they have a range of symptoms and severity. Seizure types vary by where they begin in the brain and how far they spread.

These go under the name of paraneoplastic syndromes , which often indicate advanced disease and worse prognosis [ citation needed ] . The most common paraneoplastic syndromes associated with adenocarcinoma of the lung are described below: Hypercalcemia of malignancy is more common in squamous cell carcinoma of the lung, but can occur in adenocarcinoma as well.
Lung adenocarcinoma is a cancer that occurs due to abnormal and uncontrolled cell growth in the lungs. It is a subtype of non-small cell lung cancer that is often diagnosed in an outer area of the lung. Early lung cancers may not be associated with any signs and symptoms. As the condition progresses, affected people can experience chest pain, a persistent cough, fatigue, coughing up blood, loss of appetite, unexplained weight loss, shortness of breath, and/or wheezing. The underlying cause of lung adenocarcinoma is generally unknown; however, risk factors for developing a lung cancer include smoking; exposure to secondhand smoke and other toxic chemicals; a family history of lung cancer; previous radiation treatment to the chest or breast; and HIV infection .
Chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) is a type of cancer of the white blood cells (lymphocytes). Early signs and symptoms may include swollen lymph nodes, fatigue , weight loss, fever, night sweats and/or frequent infections. CLL usually occurs in adults around the age of 70 and begins in the bone marrow and then spreads to the blood. Over time, CLL may also spread to the lymph nodes and other organs, including the liver, spleen and lungs. The severity and outcome of CLL depends on many factors. The underlying cause is thought to be a combination of genetic and other unknown factors.
B-cell chronic lymphocytic leukemia (B-CLL) is a type of B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma (see this term), and the most common form of leukemia in Western countries, affecting elderly adults (mean age of 67 and 72 years) with a slight male predominance (1.7:1), and characterized by a highly variable clinical presentation that can include asymptomatic disease or non-specific B-symptoms such as unintentional weight loss, severe fatigue, fever (without evidence of infection), and night sweats as well as cervical lymphadenopathy, splenomegaly and frequent infections. Some patients can also develop autoimmune complications such as autoimmune hemolytic anemia or immune thrombocytopenia (see these terms). The clinical course is extremely heterogeneous with survival ranging from a few months to several decades.
Hormone therapy Dryness or shrinking of the vagina, one of the hallmark signs of genitourinary syndrome of menopause (GSM), might make sex uncomfortable and, in turn, reduce your desire.
The authors studied this gene specifically after observing that patients with Williams-Beuren (WBS) duplication syndrome (609757) had significantly higher levels of separation anxiety compared to patients with WBS (194050) and to the general population.
Because R1210C is known to cause familial renal disease (atypical hemolytic uremic syndrome; 235400), Raychaudhuri et al. (2011) assessed renal function in 17 unrelated R1210C heterozygotes with advanced ARMD but found no evidence of clinically significant renal dysfunction, although subclinical renal dysfunction was present (median calculated GFR of 62 mL/min).
Molecular Genetics Musunuru et al. (2010) performed whole-genome exome sequencing in 2 sibs with a clinical syndrome of combined hypolipidemia, consisting of extremely low plasma levels of LDL cholesterol, HDL cholesterol, and triglycerides, from the 4-generation FHBL family originally studied by Pulai et al. (1998).
Sonnhag et al. (1979) could find no relation between acetylator phenotype and proneness to develop SLE-like syndrome. Reidenberg et al. (1980) found an excess of slow acetylator phenotype in SLE.
