Typhoid Fever is a serious and potentially fatal illness which is caused by a bacterial infection. This disease is primarily associated with poor hygiene and is more common in areas with poor sanitation.
Causes
Typhoid Fever is caused by the bacteria species known as Salmonella enterica. These bacteria are transmitted into the victim through contaminated water in most cases of infection. If the water or even food contaminated with fecal wastes from an infected person is consumed by a person, he or she could get infected with the typhoid bacteria found in the feces.
Once the bacteria enter into the body through the digestive tract, they penetrate into the intestinal walls and are phagocytosed, or engulfed in solid form by macrophages which are a type of white blood cells. From there Black Byron Jones Jersey , it is taken into parts of the body where it can multiply like spleen, liver and bone marrow. Once it multiplies in good numbers, it enters the blood stream again causing symptoms of the fever.
Not everyone may get critically ill after the bacteria infect them. People developing mild fever which can be overlooked can actually go on to be long term carriers of the disease, as the bacteria find havens to multiply in the liver, gall bladder and bile duct.
Symptoms
The symptoms of Typhoid Fever include the following.
However, the disease progresses through no less than four stages spanning across a little more than three weeks. In the first week, the fever, headache and cough attack the patient with malaise. It may also accompany nose bleeding and abdominal pain. In the second week, the fever reaches up to 104 °F Black Jaylon Smith Jersey , marked by low heartbeat rate and a dicrotic pulse. Delirium is a noted symptom during this stage. Diarrhea and constipation are experienced frequently by victims.
The third stage can be particularly dangerous due to the risks of development of certain complications such as intestinal hemorrhage, muttering delirium and the intestinal perforation could occur. The fever gradually reduces by the end of the third week.
Diagnosis
The diagnosis of the typhoid fever is carried out by testing blood samples, bone marrow and stool cultures to check for the presence of the Salmonella type bacteria through the Widal Test, which confirms the presence of the antibodies for the parasite. However, the test can take a bit too long to confirm the results Black Xavier Woods Jersey , as timely antibiotic treatment is vital to the treatment of the disease. Till the results from the Widal Test are awaited, ciprofloxacin is administered.
Treatment
Even though typhoid has been known to be potentially fatal and dangerous, it does not result in death most of the time. It is important to note that immediate treatment should be offered to the victim of typhoid fever which could help reduce the risk of fatality due to the disease to a mere 1%. Recovery is about a little more than a week. However, in case the victim is not treated, the fever will last a complete three weeks and could result in deaths in some cases.
One of the most widely used treatments of typhoid fever is administering antibiotics to the victim Black Jourdan Lewis Jersey , particularly ciprofloxacin, amoxicillin, ampicillin and chloramphenicol, which are aimed to kill the Salmonella bacteria in the body. Chloramphenicol has been the primary drug of choice for the treatment, but other drugs such as ciprofloxacin Black Chidobe Awuzie Jersey , ampicillin and trimethoprim-sulfmethoxazole are usually prescribed due to effectiveness and milder side effects.
As the sanitation conditions improve around the world, the occurrence of the disease is becoming less common as well. However, you should remain careful while traveling to a particular region where you know that typhoid is common and get vaccinated before doing so.
The New Formula for Success in the Music Business
Posted by nick_niesen on October 26th, 2010
Hardly anybody in the music business understands that the old formula of how to successfully promote a new act is obsolete. The record companies are all aware that there is a big problem but they have no idea what the solution is. What they do understand is that they are unable to recoup their investment in studio time with a good producer, the cost of a good video Black Taco Charlton Jersey , the advertising budget, and the cost of the first promotional road tour from the profits on a first hit CD. An act must be capable of repeating and sustaining their initial success in the studio in order for a record company to make a profit because the necessary investment has increased dramatically. Ever since the mid 1990's the record companies have become painfully aware that there are no acts containing songwriters who can keep on writing more hit songs. All the new acts since the mid 1990's have one, two, maybe three good songs at the most, and any person who's purchased a CD since that time will testify to that. The record companies also know that MP3 downloading on the internet is a factor that has negatively affected their profits. Put that together with their inability to find sustainable new acts and you have the two main reasons why so many record companies are losing money. The ones that are not losing money are the ones that have a library of popular artists from the past who continue to sell. The record companies now understand that the internet is the new communications med.
