Can Rheumatoid arthiritis cause thrombocytosis?
Yes, thrombocytosis occurs in response to inflammation, and RA is an inflamatory disease.
Is a kind of arthritis that occurs when uric acid builds up in blood and causes joint inflammation Uric acid is breakdown product of?
Gout Is a kind of arthritis that occurs when uric acid builds up in blood producing uric acid crystals causing joint inflammation. Uric acid is breakdown product of Purines which are fond in the nucleus of living cells.
What types of arthritis cause a hole in the nasal septum?
This can be the result of Crohn's disease but it occurs very rarely.
If patients have damage in scar formation of the hearts valves what do the have?
Rheumatic Heart Disease. It develops because of an unusual immune reaction that occurs within 5 weeks after an untreated beta-hemolytic streptococcal infection. The infection starts as "strep throat" or a UTI but progresses to the creation of antibodies that react with the collagen to cause inflammation in the joints, skin, brain, and heart. During a first rheumatic fever, about half of those affected develop heart inflammation, but most have a complete recovery. However, in some people the heart valves are damaged and scars form.
What are symptoms of viral cardiomyopathy?
The symptoms of a viral infection are known to us all. Fever, tiredness, runny nose, sore throat, sore body etc. The sore body is sore muscles which is a myositis (inflammation of skeletal muscle). Happening at the same time is often a myocarditis (inflammation of heart muscle). This is very common and it normally resolves without consequense. Occasionally in some people an unusual reaction occurs resulting in inflammation, scarring and destruction of the heart muscle. This leads to heart failure symptoms and a diagnosis of cardiomyopathy.
What is primary Vasculitis?
When the vessel inflammation occurs spontaneously, with no other associated disease process
Can Rheumatoid arthiritis cause thrombocytosis?
Yes, thrombocytosis occurs in response to inflammation, and RA is an inflamatory disease.
What are the main differences between ulcerative colitis and Crohn's disease?
Crohn's Disease occurs anywhere along the digestive tract, occurs in patches, and pain generally occurs in the lower right abdomen. Ulcerative Colitis occurs typically only occurs in one affected area, inflammation occurs throughout the affected area, and pain is in the lower left abdomen.
What is secondary Vasculitis?
Secondary vasculitis is a condition in which inflammation of blood vessels occurs as a result of an underlying condition, such as an autoimmune disease, infection, or medication. Treatment typically involves managing the underlying cause in addition to medications to suppress the immune response and reduce inflammation in the blood vessels.
What is tachiasis disease?
You. probably, spelt it wrong. I think, you meant Takayasu's disease. In this disease, you can not feel the pulse of a patient, due to an inflammation of the arteries (arteritis).

Appositional growth occurs in the periosteum, where new bone tissue is added to the surface. Interstitial growth, on the other hand, occurs within the bone itself, at the epiphyseal plates during growth.
What is valvulitis?
Commonly associated with rheumatic fever, an inflammatory disease caused by inadequate treatment of a streptococcal infection. An autoimmune reaction occurs, leading to inflammation and damage to heart valves.
What causes third spacing?
Third-spacing refers to a situation in which fluid shifts out of the blood into a body cavity or tissue where it is no longer available as ciculating fluid. Examples include peritonitis, the inflammation and infection of the peritoneal membranes, and burns, in which extensive inflammation of the skin and underlying tissues causes fluid to shift out of the blood, causing edema. The result of of this shift is a fluid deficit in the vascular compartment (hypervolemia) and a fluid excess in interstitial space. Until this cause is removed, fluid remains in the "third-space"--in the body but is not a functional part of the circulating fluids.
What is mitral valvulitis?
Commonly associated with rheumatic fever, an inflammatory disease caused by inadequate treatment of a streptococcal infection. An autoimmune reaction occurs, leading to inflammation and damage to heart valves.
Who are more likely to suffer from atrial fibrillation?
often occurs in people with various types of heart disease. Atrial fibrillation may also result from an inflammation of the heart's covering (pericarditis ), chest trauma or surgery, pulmonary disease, and certain medications
What is the breakdown of the word components of interstitial?
The word "interstitial" is derived from the Latin root "interstitium," meaning "space between." It is composed of the prefix "inter-" meaning "between" or "among," and the suffix "-ial," which typically indicates a relationship or pertaining to. Thus, "interstitial" refers to something that exists or occurs in the spaces between structures or components.
What is pulpitis?
Pulpitis is a medical condition in which an inflammation of the dental pulp occurs.
