Who is at risk for infective endocarditis?
people who have had rheumatic fever, with its resulting scarring, or a congenital cause of heart malformation, may contract this disease when certain bacteria enter the bloodstream and become lodged in the heart.
What causes an enlarged heart in a dog?
An enlarged heart in a dog can be caused by a number of problems - congenital malformations of the internal heart structures, primary cardiovascular disease such as endocarditis, or secondary cardiovascular disease resulting from primary renal or pulmonary disease. Without more specific information, the underlying cause cannot be determined with any accuracy.
What condition of arrested physical and mental development results from a congenital lack of thyroid secretion?
Arrested physical and mental development resulting from a congenital lack of thyroid secretion is known as Cretinism.
Can a cavity cause heart problems?
Yes. A decaying tooth can spread bacteria into the bloodstream, and the lining (the endocardium) and valves of the heart are sites where these bacteria tend to form colonies (so-called vegetations), leading to a condition called infective endocarditis, resulting in the destruction of the valve, or even stroke (parts of vegetation can form emboli (plugs) in the brain).
What is the congenital heart disease in which 2 major arteries of the heart are reversed in position resulting in 2 noncommunicating circulatory systems?
Transposition Of The Great Vessels
Congenital septal defects are holes that form in the septum during the embryonic development of the heart---resulting in the abnormal flow of blood from?
the left side of the heart to the right
What is Hirschsprung's disease?
also known as congenital megacolon or aganglionic megacolon, is an abnormality in which certain nerve fibers are absent in segments of the bowel, resulting in severe bowel obstruction.

What is atresia?
* Anal atresia -- congenital absence of a hole at the bottom end of the intestine. Also called imperforate anus. * Aortic atresia -- congenital absence of the normal valvular opening into the aorta. * Biliary atresia -- absence of the major bile ducts. * Choanal atresia -- congenital failure of one or both nasal passages to open. * Esophageal atresia -- a birth defect in which part of esophagus is not hollow. * Intestinal atresia -- obliteration of the hollow of the small intestine, involving the ileum (50% of cases) or the jejunum or duodenum. * Laryngeal atresia -- congenital failure of the laryngeal opening to develop, resulting in partial or total obstruction at or just above or below the glottis. * Pulmonary atresia -- congenital absence of the pulmonary valve opening in the heart. * Tricuspid atresia -- congenital lack of the tricuspid valve opening. * Vaginal atresia -- congenital occlusion of the vagina or subsequence adhesion (sticking together) of the walls of the vagina occluding it.
Why would rabbits in an enclosed field eventually reach a stable number?
Too many rabbits would eat all the available vegetation resulting in starvation. The deaths of many rabbits would allow the vegetation to regrow. The surviving rabbits would eat it and reproduce, the cycle would repeat. Eventually a balance between numbers of rabbits and growth of vegetation would be achieved.
What is septum uterus?
A septum uterus is a form of a congenital malformation where the uterine cavity is partitioned by a longitudinal septum; the outside of the uterus has a normal typical shape. The wedge-like partition may involve only the superior part of the cavity resulting in an incomplete septum or a subseptate uterus, or less frequently the total length of the cavity (complete septum) and the cervix resulting in a double cervix. The septation may also continue caudally into the vagina resulting in a "double vagina".[1]
Is coal dead fuel?
It is a dead fuel as it is formed from the remains of the dead vegetation of the Carboniferous period(605 million years ago).The dead vegetationgot buried under many layers of sedimentary rocks, thus increasing the preasure and temperature.As force was applied on the dead vegetation from below bythe Earth's core and manteland from the top by the crust, water was squeezed from these dead vegetation resulting in the form of coal. The process of transforming of dead vegetation by various natural, chemical as well as physical reactions into the black substance coal is known as Carbonisation.
