We've all associated with Parkinson's disease with tremor. However, the question of recognition of Parkinson's disease is much more difficult than it seems.
1) The tremor: a potential symptoms of Parkinson's disease
The earthquakes that do occur in approximately two thirds of people with Parkinson's disease. Typically, they occur at rest and conversely decrease or stop when you move. The arms are more often affected by earthquakes. Also note that stress exacerbates tremor.
2) The other characteristic signs of Parkinson's disease
- Muscle rigidity: even at rest, the muscles continue to contract continuously, generating pain and significant stiffness.
- The akinesia: This term refers to slow movements that lack natural. Even the habitual movements require voluntary control, which slowed their performance and significantly reduces spontaneity.
3) Other symptoms of Parkinson's disease
Digestive disorders (constipation, excessive salivation ...).
Urinary problems (incontinence, urgent desire ...).
Sexual dysfunction (erection problems ...).
Sleep disturbances (insomnia, sleepiness during the day ...).
Micrograph (lower case, or illegible).
Cardiovascular disorders.
Disorders of smell.
Symptom of depression, anxiety.
Cognitive impairment (slowness and confusion of reasoning by example).

Counterfeit drugs are potentially dangerous
Beyond the loss to the industry, the most serious threat of counterfeiting on consumer health. Counterfeit drugs are potentially dangerous and may contain harmful ingredients. The authorities have discovered drugs containing dead rat poison, paint containing lead or ink printer ... At "best", these products contain little or no active ingredient and are not therefore useless.
The drug is not yet a product like any other. In France, the authorization of the French Agency for the Safety of Health Products (AFSSAPS) is necessary before release. For its part, the European Commission is working to standardize rules across Europe. It was adopted in December 2008, a set of texts - the "Package medicine" - to fight against counterfeiting and strengthen pharmacovigilance. Negotiations are progressing on the prevention of introduction of adulterated drugs in the supply chain, while another proposed directive aims at strengthening the European system of monitoring drug safety.

The level of research in France
Despite a sub-numerical representation (less than 5% of research units from INSERM and CNRS), French researchers involved in research on musculoskeletal diseases have led to major advances for several of these pathologies.
For example, thanks to the discovery by French researchers of antigens responsible for a diagnostic test for rheumatoid and prognosis of the disease has been developed.
Regarding research on osteoporosis, serum markers for assessing the risk of fractures and new genes responsible for the anabolic activity of bone cells have been identified.
In the field of osteoarthritis, the genes modulating the activity of synthesis of chondrocytes were also found.
Finally, French researchers have demonstrated the feasibility of repairing bone loss using marrow cells fixed on natural biomaterials (coral).
Developing research in osteo-articular France requires:
- To attract young researchers to this area, thus facilitating the return to France of those parties to acquire additional training abroad
- Develop technical platforms are severely lacking both in exploring the cellular and experimental models for studies from human samples.

Dogs, cats and Environment: 4 Ecogest useful!
Among the many cat litter available in stores, there are litter composed of wood and waste paper, which seem less harmful to the environment as litter silica (small grain white or gray, clumping). Think about it when you go to your pet!
Moreover, instead of buying toys for cats and dogs in the store, you can retrieve old clothes with holes or other textiles used and leave for your imagination to make toys. Containing an unknown smell, it will interest more often than your friend sophisticated games that can be bought in shops.
Thirdly, a walk in the countryside, it is sometimes wise to take his dog on a leash so it does not damage some fragile plants.
Finally, it is often better to take your pet to a shelter in order to curb the overpopulation of dogs and cats and all abuses it entails ...

Kleptomania
Kleptomania, a mental illness difficult to understand
Being kleptomaniac, unable to help shoplift, it can raise a smile or make jokes or comedy films. But when you live this reality day by day, life is much less smiling.
Juliette makes a good living, but she is bulimic ... and kleptomaniac. She steals jewels toc in department stores, and has been for several years without ever getting caught. Nobody is aware of this habit, and she collects jewelry she carefully hides that no one doubts his behavior.
The kleptomaniac as Juliet feel a sort of tension that is relieved by the act of stealing. They feel a strong desire to grab objects are prohibited. It is not a simple desire of possession as among collectors because they could mostly afford what they steal so completely honest in paying their purchases. This is not poverty that drives them to do so. Besides the items stolen are often low value.
Kleptomania, an impulse disorder
All kleptomaniacs are not attached to the stolen items like Juliet who collects. Some even do not open the package they have stolen, or deposited in a corner to forget about it. Finally, the act of stealing itself is exciting. It is therefore a disorder of impulse.

cancer of the vocal cords
Can we find the floor after cancer of the vocal cords?
The treatment of cancer of the vocal cords is usually associated with voice disorders requiring rehabilitation. Sometimes treatment requires the removal of the vocal cords. So what are the solutions to find a phonation?
The treatment of cancer of the vocal cords
The most conventional treatment of cancer is surgery, that is to say, the surgical removal of the tumor. Thus, when one or both vocal cords are affected by cancer, treatment based on their removal. This mutilation leads to disorders of phonation or even loss of voice.
In cases of cancer of the vocal cords, can also occasionally for radiotherapy to surgery, which helps maintain a relatively normal voice.
In fact, treatment depends on the developmental stage of the tumor. Plus it is diagnosed early, less treatment may be mutilating, and the voice can be preserved.
