The early Greeks were the first Western men to speculate on the origin of the universe and of the earth and its inhabitants.
Insulin injections are regularly used to treat diabetes mellitus, but care has to be taken not to exceed the dose as this will cause hyperinsulinism.
To guard against rapid depletion of the short-lived neutrophils, the bone marrow holds a large number of them in reserve to be mobilized in response to inflammation or infection.
The recognition of Rh factor and its importance in haemolytic anaemia of the newborn was an important development, chiefly because to be forewarned is to be forearmed.
The anesthesiologist selects the drugs to be used, decides how they are to be administered and constantly monitors the patient condition during the operation.
Vitamin B12 deficiency is nearly always due to failure to absorb the vitamin. To be absorbed it has first to be combined with intrinsic factor, a protein formed in the stomach.
Paracelsus [,paera'selsas] (1493 — 1591) seems to have been the first physician to recognize a trade as the cause of a disease.
Lack of sufficient calcium causes the nervous system to become more and more excitable, and the nerve fibers begin to fire spontaneously.
Although hundreds of chemicals have been reported to produce cancers in experi mental animals, only about two dozen have been verified as causes of cancer in man.

The early physicians who used remedies taken from plants to treat their patients were probably the first people to study plants with care and keep a record of their observations. These physicians had to tell poisonous, medicinal, and useless plants from each other in order to treat their patients.
Early records indicate that illness was generally thought to be caused by unseen demons or evil spirits that entered the body where it was most vulnerable. Today, in much the same fashion, disease is said to be caused by creatures invisible to the naked eye that enter the body.
In ancient Greece surgeons were recognized as subordinate medical practitioners. Physicians were believed to be men of learning, employing their intellect to diagnose the causes of diseases. Surgeons by contrast used their hands, not their heads, and the fact that their work involved the shedding of blood allowed them to be linkened disdainfully to butchers.
To remove the disease germs and the undesired sediments water which comes from lakes or rivers or even from some wells must be purified for human use. Enough chlorine is put into the water to kill any disease germs present but not enough to injure people or animals. Sometimes both filtration and chlorination are used to assure a supply of pure water.
Strong emotions like anger cause physical changes to take place in the body. The heart beats faster, the stomach tightens, and a person may perspire. If you do not do something to deal with the emotions, the body does not relax. It stays in this state of tension. Over a period of time fatigue can set in and physical illness may even develop. It is unhealthy to keep feelings inside, for you put an additional strain on your body.
Cigarette smoke has been shown to contain numerous compounds that are known to cause cancer in experimental animals and that appear to be strongly linked to human cancer. Cigarette smoke also has been shown to contain a number of cocarcinogens, substances that appear to enhance the effect of carcinogens when they are administered concomitantly. Smoking has been proven by scientific research to be detrimental, or harmful, to health.

To survive, an organism must be capable of responding to changes in the environ ment. To respond quickly and appropriately, its parts must be in communication with the outside world and with one another. This is true of small unicellular organisms and of large multicellular ones. A large multicellular organism, with its low ratio of surface area to volume, requires a special system to transmit information inward and to effect coordinated responses to the information. The nervous system fills this need.
A patient about to undergo surgery is instructed not to eat or drink anything for several hours prior to the operation in order to make it easier for the surgeon to operate and to avoid complications from the anesthetic. A patient is often given an enema just before the operation to void the colon of waste material. Sometimes a urinary catheter is used to drain the bladder. The area to be operated on is shaved and scrubbed with soap, and an antiseptic is applied to avoid infection.
Efforts to understand the metabolic and dietary factors that lead to osteoporosis, or loss of skeletal mass with aging, emphasize the importance of calcium bioavailability. Calcium in food exists mainly as complexes with other factors from which the calcium must be released to be absorbed. Plant constituents of the diet, in particular, may reduce calcium bioavailability so that people who do not use dairy products are less likely to obtain adequate amounts of calcium.
There are hundreds of different alternative therapies used by millions of people worldwide to treat every ill imaginable. People are turning to alternative therapies because virtually every drug has been shown to have some side effects and many patients have become dissatisfied with the inability of conven tional treatments to cure certain conditions — particularly chronic diseases such as arthritis. The common feature that seems to run through every one of the alternative treatments is the importance placed on the whole person, not just on specific symptoms — this is known as the holistic approach.
Each day, about 0.8 per cent of the body's red blood cells wears out and is destroyed. If the body fails to replace these cells at the same rate, anaemia results. It is considered to exist if hemoglobin levels are below 13 grams per 100 ml in males and below 12 grams per 100 ml in adult nonpregnant woman. If the blood is examined under a microscope the red cells are seen to be paler and smaller than normal. Anaemia is not a disease itself, but a condition caused by a variety of diseases and disorders. In many cases the anaemia is found to be due to a combination of two or more causes.
Lavoisier was a brilliant chemist and the first to show the significance of the respiratory process in relation to food. He made the first quantitative measurements of the metabolism of man and his studies were the first to show that respira tion was a process of the slow combustion of carbon and hydrogen within the body — oxygen being consumed to support the combustion and carbon dioxide being produced as a result. It took over a hundred years with further advances in the sciences of chemistry, physics, and physiology before nutrition as such was recognized as a new science.

The movement of molecules or ions from a region of higher concentration to a region of lower concentration is called diffusion. Molecules that are moving from a region of higher concentration to a region of lower concentration are said to be moving along a diffusion gradient, while molecules going in the opposite direction are said to be going against a diffusion gradient. When the molecules, through their random movement in all directions, have become distributed throughout the space available, they are considered to be in a state of equilibrium. The rate of diffusion depends on several factors, including temperature and the density of the medium through which it is taking place.
A muscular fibre may be said to consist of a soft contractile substance enclosed in a tubular sheath, named sarcolemma. Upon examination of a voluntary muscular fibre by transmitted light, it is found to be apparently marked by alternate light and dark bands, which are nearly of equal breadth. If the surface is carefully focussed, rows of granules will be detected at the point of junction of the dark and light bands. By treating the specimen with certain reagents fine lines may be seen running transversely between the granules uniting them together. This appearance is believed to be due to a reticulum or network of interstitial substance lying between the contractile portions of the muscle.
Emphysema is a condition in which the lining of the air sacs in the lung loses its elasticity and is unable to expand, which means that the lungs cannot provide enough oxygen to the body. The person most likely to develop emphysema is a man older than 45 who is a heavy smoker, but this gender difference is likely to disappear as more women continue to smoke for longer periods of time. In experiments with laboratory animals, ozone and nitrous oxide — chemicals that occur in the grey-blue exhaust from motor vehicles and are present in polluted air — have been shown to cause changes in lung tissue similar to those seen in people with emphysema. Not surprisingly, emphysema is more common in large cities and highly industrialized areas.
When scientists first examined the human brain, they found it to be divided into two halves, or hemispheres, which are nearly identical in appearance, mirroring each other just as the two sides of the body do. It was found that the two sides of the brain have different functions. Many investigators have studied the differences between the functions of the two hemispheres and found their relationship to be quite complex. The left brain is supposed to be logical, rational, analytical, whereas the right brain is supposed to be creative and emotional. Interestingly, the fibres which join the two halves of the brain have been found to be larger in women than in men. Nerve cells in the brain use electrical signals, but in addition they communicate chemically with neurotransmitters. No one knows how many neurotransmitters there are, but extensive efforts to identify the chemicals and map the neurons producing them are currently under way. The first agents to be identified as neurotransmitters were all small molecules, single amino acids or their derivations or such simple compounds as acetylcholine.
