Cystic Fibrosis

Probably the mucus that collects in Harry's lungs makes it hard for him to breathe.

Myocardial fibrosis is the abnormal thickening of the heart valves. This thickening is caused by the muscles in the hearts cells becoming impaired.

Cystic fibrosis affects primarily lungs and pancreas, not immune system. But a patient affected is debilitated and it would decrease the fuction of various systems, like the immune A CF patient that has had a lung transplant would have an impaired immune system because of the medication given for rejection. The medication would suppress the immune system so that the patients' body would be more likely to accept the new organ(s), but also making the patient more susceptible to other illnesses.

Cystic fibrosis can be detected days after birth in several ways: Babies can present with symptoms particular to CF or they can be screened for CF as part of a state/provincial health policy. The 'sweat' test is often used as a determinant of CF.

Cystic fibrosis has had reported incidents since the early 17th century. The poem Woe Is the Child gives a description of a child at this time period who had CF. The first clear description and medical entry for CF was made in 1938.

If it is not diagnosed in the earlier stages things like lungs could be infected and a transplant would be needed of both lungs. if both lungs are not transplanted there could be a chance that the effected lung could contain bacteria and infect the new lung. worst case scenario is that it doesn't get diagnosed and a major infection could kill the patient

That depends, man or woman? Each sex has their own answers, however some are simular. A lot of the time it has to do with digestive pain, or Back pain.

When you have Cystic fibrosis you have to have respritory theropy which is the correct term for breathing theropy. It is where u have a theropist thump on your back and chest to break up the built up mucus so that infection does not build up. It also make breathing easier. This is one of the many types of respritory theropy.

Cystic fibrosis is a chronic genetic disease. It is not an autoimmune disease. However, recent research indicates that an overactive immune response contributes to inflammation and damage in the lungs.

Cystic Fibrosis is an example of a disease inherited as an autosomal recessive genetic disorder. Both parents of a baby who has Cystic Fibrosis have one abnormal recessive gene and one normal dominant gene and are therefore, Cystic Fibrosis carriers. Carriers are said to be heterozygous because they contain one normal copy of the gene and one abnormal copy. A baby who inherits cystic fibrosis has inherited the abnormal gene from both parents and is therefore said to be homozygous recessive.

Cystic fibrosis is an autosomal recessive disorder caused by mutations in the CFTR (cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator) gene. Heterozygous carriers (those who have inherited only one copy of the altered gene) are asymptomatic (do not experience symptoms). Two of these altered genes must be present for CF to appear. This means that if both parents are CF carriers, their offspring will express CF symptoms only if the child inherits one defective copy of the CFTR gene from each parent.

Conduct means to lead or be the head of a possie or group.

All states including Michigan now do test for CF in new born screenings. The CF Foundation has two chapter offices in Michigan. Both national and chapters have facebook pages and twitter accounts if you would like to follow.

It depends on whether it's a Renaissance, a nickel plated, or a hot blued version of the Baby Browning. The blued Baby Browning would be worth approximately $300 in very good condition. The nickel plated version with the pearl handles are worth approximately $500, and the Renaissance is up-wards to $2000.00 if in excellent shape. In all about 500,000 units were produced, including the hand chiseled engraved "Renaissance" and the "Lightweight" version which utilized a 6061 T6 aluminum receiver and chrome plated (over electro-less nickel) slide and external detail parts. Exports to the USA only took place between 1953 until 1968 and it's manufacture was discontinued in 1969.

== == In most cases, a sociopath is NOT treatable. They think they are just fine, it is the REST of the world that is out of step with THEM. The best that can be dome with them is to warehouse them, in locked wards to protect society from their violence. Drugs will help to control their acts but only if they TAKE them. Except for one thing: the mere fact that some scientists know as much as they now do about the brain of a sociopath means that solving the problem is no longer an impossible and obscure wish -- it's moving within the realm of concrete possibility.

As soon as fairly large numbers of sociopaths begin to be treated in a way that actually helps them, that corrects as much as possible the chaos of misdirected signals in their confused and disorganized brains, and then a form of therapy that in addition to that, by necessity, teaches them to cope with the resulting maelstrom of emotion and impression that was formerly impossible, so that they can put it in order and start to develop the heretofore dormant and silent segments of their brains and better use those formerly mixed-up areas where no recognizable order ruled, THEN THE OTHERS MAY BEGIN TO NOTICE WHAT IS GOING ON...and they will know at least this much: instead of "the kiss of death," a diagnosis of ASPD (the DSM-IV way of saying sociopathy or psychopathy) will lead someplace; that there will be things done that actually make a difference.

Crippled as they are neurologically, sociopaths are yet shrewd, and they're always looking out for themselves in a way similar to that of a loner predator. Seeing others like them actually benefiting from treatment will have to start persuading them that there's something to gain in going for help after all. Not being rejected or met with "We can't help you; you're evil incarnate," or the equivalent thinly disguised in euphemistic psychology jargon; NOT being met with a situation where they'd have to substitute symptoms of an "acceptable" illness in place of those they bear in secret -- that would almost certainly, if gradually, have an effect: if a sociopath can clearly see a benefit coming from admitting his or her real situation, there's nothing to stop him or her from doing just that.

It's already started to happen, if in a tiny, barely perceptible trickle.

Right now, all science has at the ready for them is to use various types of preexisting medication given in attempts to counteract the chaotic way the brain of a sociopath functions. That and types of talk therapy carefully altered to avoid the pitfalls that have in the past caused regular therapies to make sociopaths worse instead of better. But the more that scientists such as Robert Hare and his colleagues delve into and experiment with the new types of brain scans and learning what makes sociopaths tick like human bombs, the more likely that it becomes with each passing year that a means will soon be isolated to defuse those bombs.

The primary source of a sociopath's infamous rage is frustration, of a sort so alien and so extreme that almost no one else can understand what it means. Once they start getting taken seriously, that frustration, and the wild rage it provokes, will lessen, and since it is a primary source of the constant distrust that makes regular therapy fail sociopaths, the defusing of that rage and its maddening causes will be a huge step in the right direction.

No. Cystic fibrosis is a genetic disease.
