Contact dermatitis is a red, itchy rash caused by direct contact with a substance or an allergic reaction to it. The rash isn't contagious or life-threatening, but it can be very uncomfortable. ...
Probiotics are live microorganisms promoted with claims that they provide health benefits when consumed, generally by improving or restoring the gut flora. Probiotics are considered generally safe to consume, but may cau ...
Energy homeostasis is critical for the survival of species. Therefore, multiple and complex mechanisms have evolved to regulate energy intake and expenditure to maintain body weight. For weight maintenance, not only does ...
Erythroderma is the term used to describe intense and usually widespread reddening of the skin due to inflammatory skin disease. It often precedes or is associated with exfoliation (skin peeling off in scales or layers), ...
Radiology is the medical discipline that uses medical imaging to diagnose and treat diseases within the bodies of animals, including humans. A variety of imaging techniques such as X-ray radiography, ultrasound, computed tomography (CT), ...

Hyperglycaemia is the medical term for a high blood sugar (glucose) level. It's a common problem for people with diabetes. It can affect people with type 1 diabetes and type 2 diabetes, as well as pregnant women with gestational diabetes. ...
Angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 is a newly recognized ACE homolog within the renin-angiotensin system (RAS) that is produced and secreted by a variety of cell types. Although ACE2 may act on several substrates, it exhibi ...

Genetic toxicology, by definition, is the study of how chemical or physical agents affect the intricate process of heredity. Genotoxic chemicals are defined as compounds that are capable of modifying the hereditary mater ...
In numerous epidemiologic, clinical, and experimental studies, dietary sodium intake has been linked to BP , and a decrease in dietary salt intake has been documented to lower BP . In young subjects, salt intake features a programming effect there ...
Dietary sodium intake has been linked to blood pressure, and a reduction in dietary salt intake has been documented to lower blood pressure. In young subjects, salt intake has a programming effect in that blood pressure remains elevated even after ...

Obesity in adulthood is characterized by adipocyte hypertrophy. Adipose tissue participates in the regulation of energy homeostasis. High-fat diet-induced insulin resistance associated with obesity is a major risk factor ...
Hypertension, also known simply as "high blood pressure" is very common, however can lead to many significant complications if left uncontrolled. When the blood pressure is elevated, the force the blood puts on ...

circulating angiotensin II & III and aldosterone cause hypertension through their well-known direct renal and arterial actions. Indeed, one would expect that both kidneys and arteries are essential effector targets to achieve a chronic increas ...
