Lyme disease is the most common vector-borne disease in the United States. And chances are if you’re an avid fan of the great outdoors during the spring and summer months; you’ve heard it being mentioned. People become exposed to #Lyme disease when they’re bitten by an infected black-legged tick. These infamous #ticks are more active in the summer months and are usually found in heathland, woodland, parkland, and grassy areas.

This video will cover all there is to know about Lyme disease including Lyme disease #symptoms and Lyme disease testing. To navigate to specific points in this video, see below:

0:13 – What is Lyme disease?
0:38 – How common is Lyme disease?
1:22 – What causes Lyme disease?
1:41 – What are the symptoms of Lyme disease?
3:18 – Who should get tested for Lyme disease?
3:58 – How is Lyme disease prevented or treated?

The earlier Lyme disease is identified, the easier it becomes to treat. This, along with the fact obvious signs don’t always emerge, makes it so important to take a test if you believe you’ve been exposed to ticks during any outdoor adventures. You can do this from the comfort of your own home with LetsGetChecked’s at-home Lyme Disease Test. Online results will be available within 2-5 days and our dedicated medical team will be available to answer any questions you may have.

In the late 1950s, people and animals in the Japanese fishing village of Minamata began to fall ill to a strange disease, which mainly affects the central nervous system. In severe cases, victims fell into a coma and died within weeks. Researchers later found that high levels of methylmercury, the most toxic form of mercury, in the industrial wastewater from a chemical factory was the cause of the disease and named it Minamata disease.

Mr. Masami Ogata lost his grandfather to the disease and his sister was born with it. 20 members of his family, including himself, have been certified as Minamata disease patients. Now working as a storyteller at the Minamata Disease Municipal Museum, he hopes that the world will learn a lesson from Minamata and never repeat the same mistake.

Mercury discharge is a global concern. In an effort to minimize the health and environmental harm of mercury and its compounds, the international community adopted the Minamata Convention on Mercury in 2013.

This video aims to educate undergraduate university students with at least one year of science background about how to disease progression and development is measured for ALS (Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis, also known as Lou Gehrig’s disease or motor neuron disease). Despite recent advances in research, there is currently no cure for ALS and much is still unknown about the disease. The number of individuals who die from ALS has increased to three per day in Canada. This video discusses ALS research relating to the measurement of disease progression.

In this video, Dr. Berg talks about what causes tremors. One cause is neuronal irritability which is affected by low blood sugars (hypoglycemia). You have a counter-neurotransmitter that then comes in to raise the blood sugars and this is epinephrine (adrenaline). Other symptoms are the following:
1. Anxiety
2. Sweating
3. Tremors
4. High pulse rate
5. Weakness
6. Mental confusion
7. Headaches
8. Depression or lethargy

In this clip (4 of 7), Dr. Snyderman argues for a change in focus in thinking about disease and the burdens of disease.
This clip is part of a lecture, “Integrative Medicine: A Foundation for Prospective Health Care,” by Ralph Snyderman, MD, Chancellor Emeritus for Health Affairs at Duke University and James B. Duke Professor of Medicine at the Duke University School of Medicine. Dr. Snyderman offers an overview of contemporary health care, identifies some problems in that system, and proposes a paradigm shift to a prospective and personalized approach. Integrative medicine, he says, may make helpful contributions. This lecture, delivered at NIH in 2005, is part of the National Center for Complementary and Alternative Medicine Online Continuing Education Series.

Hand, foot and mouth disease is a common viral infection that affects mostly infants and young children. Infection is characterized by a rash on the hands and feet, and painful blisters inside the mouth. Outbreaks typically occur in daycare setting, during summer and early fall.
Most cases are caused by coxsackievirus A, serotype 16, but other enteroviruses can also be the cause. Notably, enterovirus 71, EV-71, is responsible for a more severe form of the disease. The viruses are non-enveloped, and contain a single plus-strand RNA.
An infected person may shed virus in respiratory droplets, oral and nasal secretions, blister fluid, and stool. The disease can spread through direct or indirect contacts with the infected. Patients are most contagious during the first week of illness, but can remain infectious for several weeks, even without symptoms.
After being inhaled or ingested, the virus replicates in the throat, tonsils, and lymphoid tissue of the small intestine. From there, it spreads to regional lymph nodes, and then further to various organs including the skin, heart, liver, and central nervous system.
Incubation period is 3 to 6 days. Infection typically starts with a low-grade fever and flu-like symptoms. Painful mouth sores appear a couple of days after the onset of fever, most often in the back of the throat. Skin rash commonly occurs on the hands, soles of the feet, and around the mouth, but can be anywhere on the body. The rash can be flat, raised or vesicular. Skin lesions are typically not itchy or painful.
Rarely, complications involving the central nervous system such as aseptic meningitis, encephalitis, or polio-like paralysis, may occur, especially with enterovirus 71, which has a significantly higher mortality rate.
Diagnosis is usually made based on symptoms. Antibody or PCR tests may be used to differentiate between coxsackievirus and enterovirus 71.
Hand, foot and mouth disease is usually mild and resolves on its own within 7 to 10 days. Treatment is supportive and includes pain and fever reducers, hydration, oral hygiene and a soft diet. Antiviral drugs may be used to treat infections by EV-71.
