.coal miners and gold miners, who are exposed to high levels of silica dust, have above-average rates of scleroderma. Other chemicals associated with the disease include polyvinyl chloride, benzine, toluene, and epoxy resins.
Any linked atoms are considered chemicals.
No. There are several genes that can result in clefting with varying degrees of severity. And there are effects from chemicals that can increase the severity.
Glycogen belongs to the carbohydrate group of food chemicals. It is a complex carbohydrate that serves as a storage form of energy in animals and humans, particularly in the liver and muscles. Glycogen is made up of glucose units linked together in a branched structure.
Methemoglobinemia is not primarily classified as an X-linked disorder; it is usually caused by genetic mutations that affect the hemoglobin's ability to carry oxygen. The most common forms of hereditary methemoglobinemia are autosomal recessive, linked to mutations in the cytochrome b5 reductase gene. However, certain acquired forms can occur due to exposure to specific chemicals or drugs. While some genetic conditions are X-linked, methemoglobinemia does not fall into that category.
the amount of ozone in the atmosphere began to drop sharply in the 1980s . this decrease has been linked to synthetic chemicals like chlorofluorocarbons which are used in refrigerants and in fire extinguisher's .
Certain medications, especially a drug used in cancer treatment called bleomycin (Blenoxane), may lead to scleroderma
The cause of scleroderma is still a puzzle.researchers do not know why it occurs.Some claims of a scleroderma-like illness have been made by women with silicone breast implants, but a link has not been proven in numerous studies.
Any linked atoms are considered chemicals.
Bulging disks and scleroderma are not directly related, as they involve different physiological processes. Bulging disks are a spinal condition often linked to degeneration or injury, while scleroderma is an autoimmune disorder that affects connective tissues, leading to skin tightening and internal organ issues. However, both conditions can contribute to chronic pain and may coexist in some individuals, but they do not have a causal relationship.
CHEMICALS. Environmental chemicals such as fungicides, food additives, and pollutants are suspected of causing birth defects, though this is difficult to prove.
No.
