Rabies vaccination in dogs and cats is of paramount importance. In usa has been infected with rabies and in recent years dozens of cases of rabies-infested animals have been discovered that have not been immunized by a emergency vet as required by law, infecting all mammals including humans and caused by RNA virus. Transmission of the disease is mainly caused by biting, but the clinical signs are not specific but can cause neurological spasms and signs, rabies is incurable and in the case of clinical signs, the disease can not be treated.
Emergency vet think that The cause of rabies is viral and belongs to a family of RNA viruses and is one of the first diseases to be developed against the vaccine in 1885. The disease affects all mammals and it is now known that every few minutes a person dies in the world of rabies, especially in developing countries. The spread of the virus is global and can be transmitted by any individual belonging to the mammals (eg, dogs, cats, foxes, cows, etc.).
How do you get the disease? How does the disease progress?
1.The virus is secreted in the infected animal's saliva. The transmission is carried out by an animal bite whose saliva contains the virus or by contact with the saliva with exposed wounds. The virus migrates in the nervous system toward the spinal cord, where it proliferate quickly and rises toward the brain. When it reaches the brain, clinical signs begin to appear and the virus is secreted in the animal's saliva, sometimes the secretion of saliva occurs before the onset of clinical signs (sometimes even two weeks before).
2. The time from the bite to the onset of the signs can last from one day to the next, depending on the distance of the bitten area and the amount of virus injected (bite more than licking).
What are the clinical signs of rabies infection?
The disease can affect any mammal of any age. The clinical signs are not very specific and can be
Primary signs - restlessness, lack of eating, personality changes and vomiting and vomiting
In more advanced stages - depression, extreme restlessness, demancy, aggression, change of voice, fearless attack, difficulties in swallowing and eating, eating feces and non-food items.
In humans, the main clinical signs are fear of water (hydrophobia). Patients with the disease can not drink even a glass of water and are affected by paralyzing fear as a result of contact with water.
What is the reccommand treatment of the rabid animal by emergency vet?
Emergency vet do not treat an animal suspected of rabies and we send it to quarantine for about 10 days to see if the animal develops clinical signs that are suspicious of the disease.
A person bitten by a suspected rabid animal must go to the Ministry of Health and receive a passive vaccination against rabies as soon as possible. As soon as clinical signs appear, the disease is incurable.
Have not you vaccinated your pet yet?

Part of Pripyats Hospital 126
Hospital No. 126, received the first victims of the Chernobyl accident, the basement still harbours some of their radioactive clothing. Shortly after the accident, firefighters arrived to try to extinguish the fires. First on the scene was a Chernobyl Power Station firefighter brigade under the command of Lieutenant Volodymyr Pravik, who died on 9 May 1986 of acute radiation sickness. They were not told how dangerously radioactive the smoke and the debris were.
"We didn't know much about radiation. Even those who worked there had no idea. There was no water left in the trucks. Misha filled a cistern and we aimed the water at the top. Then those boys who died went up to the roof – Vashchik, Kolya and others, and Volodya Pravik.... They went up the ladder ... and I never saw them again".
From eyewitness accounts of the firefighters involved before they died, one described his experience of the radiation as "tasting like metal", and feeling a sensation similar to that of pins and needles all over his face.

An Ode To Your Brain
I came across this video on You Tube and have to share it with you. It's called "Ode to the Brain" and I think it is wonderful.
A simple 3 minute and 42 second introduction to Neurology set to music and beautiful images.
your brain stores masses of information. The human brain is a mass of jelly you can hold in your hand and yet it can contemplate the vastness of interstellar space.
The brain encodes what we know in cells called Neurons and there is something like 100 Trillion neural connections
Your brain contains the equivalent of 20 million volumes of information and has been described as a very big place inside a very small space.
Information flows in as energy and explodes into a sensory experience.
No longer at the mercy of the reptile brain we can change ourselves. Think of the possibilities
mp3: symphonyofscience.com "Ode to the Brain" is the ninth episode in the Symphony of Science music video series. Through the powerful words of scientists Carl Sagan, Robert Winston, Vilayanur Ramachandran, Jill Bolte Taylor, Bill Nye, and Oliver Sacks, it covers different aspects the brain including its evolution, neuron networks, folding, and more. The material sampled for this video comes from Carl Sagan's Cosmos, Jill Bolte Taylor's TED Talk, Vilayanur Ramachandran's TED Talk, Bill Nye's Brain episode, BBC's "The Human Body", Oliver Sachs' TED Talk, Discovery Channel's "Human Body: Pushing the Limits", and more.

Neural implants are of great value in neuroscience research as they enable a connection between nervous tissue and the ex vivo environment. Graphene is an ideal material for producing electrodes which could be implanted without encouraging the growth of scar tissue.

HERMOSA BEACH, CA--Competitive runner, Laura Cattivera, finds a unique way to keep up the pace despite a debilitating medical condition called 'focal dystonia.' She runs backwards. Laura has a passion for running – and nothing is going to stop her. So run Laura, run.
After years of medical tests, Laura finally received the diagnosis of focal dystonia in 1995. Focal dystonia is a neurological condition – due to overuse. Laura had to become creative and find new was to run or give up her passion. She choose running backwards.

Tracy Hitchings spoke on the use of Telehealth in Cornwall at our Neurology Awareness Day on 20 October 2011
car keys.
the ultimate expression of personal freedom in America, the symbol of mobility, ability; an extension of the individual. with a car many things are possible - travel, shopping, hauling, visiting or just plain driving for the pleasure of it. we take cars for granted - if you don't have one you are somehow deficient - and we've largely forgotten how powerful they are.
my wife has a car, a modest vehicle that gets her where she needs to go - work, school, errands, visits with friends and family. it's utility is undeniable. there is a faux-sportiness about it, and the color - blackberry - is quite pleasing to the eye. i know that car backwards and forwards with only one minor detail - i haven't a clue what it is like to drive it.
i have what is termed these days a "seizure disorder", known more widely as "epilepsy", once known as "having fits". my brain does not function correctly, prone to electro-chemical misfiring that renders it chaotic, unusable, dysfunctional. during these neurological meltdowns i may fall to the ground and shake violently, sit in a chair and stare off into space, drooling, or wander panicked around the house sniffing the air for a scent that exists only in my inside-out mind.
the aftermath of these seizures covers a range. at the minimum i am exhausted and confused when i come to or am forced to wake up. my muscles will be sore, my head in the thrall of a serious pounder, speech heavily slurred, thought largely impossible. if i'm really lucky i'll still have the smell of burning wire or insulation in my nose, and the taste of hot metal in my mouth, both by-products of the seizures involving that nonexistent odor. a long period of sleep is required for me to function at even the most rudimentary level.
the permanent effects become more pronounced as the seizures continue. my short term memory is a mess, i'm very forgetful, and while speaking or writing i'll lose words, and i mean lose them so completely i'll have to find another way to speak/write my thought. i'm prone to sudden exhaustion, sleep poorly, and my temper has become short, too short, which is hard on rachel. coupled with my instant forgetfulness, i've started quite a few needless arguments based on the fruits of a faulty memory.
my first seizure occurred when i was 20 years old - not exactly rare, but not that common. as far as i know it was not the direct result of a brain injury, though my left frontal lobe does show two very small areas of scarring. it is not known whether or not this has any relation to the seizures, though the only one caught during eeg monitoring originated from that same lobe. i have been medicated on and off for the last twenty years with no real success. presently, i am at the end of the medication road, taking my current prescription as much to satisfy my neurologist (an excellent doctor - high praise from someone like me) as to control seizures. my longest period without seizures was eighteen months, during which time i was not taking any meds at all. the pace, variety, and severity of the seizures has increased over the years.
the treatments left to me are all invasive, requiring surgical testing to determine my fitness for the procedures themselves. "it's only brain surgery" my doctor cracks in his deadpan way. for the time being i'm unprepared to risk the possible loss of function, which varies wildly depending upon which parts of the brain must be removed. perhaps walking won't be possible, or speech, there may be memory loss, and so forth.
so for the indeterminate future i have to find a way to get along with a brain and body prepared to betray me without a seconds warning. i cannot leave the house by myself. fear of having seizures in public or finding myself appearing stupid because my memory has chosen an inopportune moment to abandon me keeps me at home. so does the sheer danger of walking around by myself and the potentially fatal possibilities of having a seizure while crossing the road or using the stairs, or any of a dozen other scenarios. rachel works and goes to school, so i'm pretty much on my own, essentially house bound.
the immobility may be somewhat alleviated in months to come. i am applying to an organization called Paws With A Cause, a non profit that raises and trains working dogs to aid the disabled and chronically ill. for epileptics there are seizure response dogs which can be trained to respond in a variety of ways depending upon the nature of the seizures the person experiences. this can include staying with me, trying to awaken me, bringing the phone so i can call for help, and monitoring me as i move about the house, or go outside. in the outside world the dog can help me get around, blocking me before i walk into objects, go down stairs, cross the street. once given a command (something i would not be able to do during a seizure) the dog would allow me to proceed. it would also be able to alert strangers to my status, and carry a cell phone pre-programmed with my wife's phone number as well as my meds.
the application process has only begun, and i don't know if i will be approved nor how long it will all take, but this could be my set of keys to the kingdom.
of course, even with the dog at my side, i still won't be able to drive. :)
The last remaining Ravenswood abandoned hospital is finally being rehabbed. Work started recently to make this old hospital into new retirement senior living, apartments will be made into supportive living. Before it closed, this building of the hospital was being used for Neurologic and Orthopedic spinal and brain care. I was born in Ravenswood hospital in the section that was demolished and turned into a french school. Lycee Francais

Dyslexia is a neurological disorder that many do not understand and often dismiss as stupidity or laziness. If you don't believe me, just do a search for dyslexia or dyslexic on Flickr. See what context people put it in.
Best definition I have seen:
"Dyslexia is a neurologically-based, often familial disorder which interferes with the acquisition of language. Varying in the degrees of severity, it is manifested by difficulties in receptive and expressive language, including phonological processing, in reading, writing, spelling, handwriting and sometimes arithmetic. Dyslexia is not the result of lack of motivation, sensory impairment, inadequate instructional or environmental opportunities, but may occur together with these conditions. Although dyslexia is lifelong, individuals with dyslexia frequently respond successfully to timely and appropriate intervention" (Orton Dyslexia Society, 1994).
Parents and teachers, I ask you this question. If punishing or humiliating a child in a wheelchair will not motivate that child to walk, why would punishing or humiliating a child with dyslexia motivate them to read, spell, or excel at mathematics? You want to help a child or adult who is struggling with dyslexia, start by researching the facts.

A powerful microcontroller provides the source and monitoring of the ultrasonic signal which is amplified before being used for calibration. The research for which this is used helps us understand the human brain and developmental neurology!
