-emia
condition of blood
devastating disease is caused by HIV, which disables immune response by destroying important white blood cells known as helper T cells. The loss of immune function allows opportunistic diseases to proliferate most deadly infectious disease on our planet
Aids
opportunistic diseases proliferating aids:
Pneumonia dementia Kaposi’s sarcoma
Treatment of aids or other class if viruses that mutate quickly
Antiretroviral therapy
Bodies immune response to allergens, which are foreign substances that produce a reaction, including immediate inflammation, may strike in different forms:
allergy
most common allergies are:
allergic rhinitis: hay, fever, which affects the mucus membranes of the nasal cavity and throat
allergic dermatitis:, which affects the skin where it’s been physical contact with
an immediate allergic reaction to a foreign substances that produces rapid inflammation, vasodilation, bronchospasm, shortness of breath and spasms of the G.I. tract and severe cases it can become life-threatening if medical intervention is not available
Anaphylaxis
reduced ability of red blood cells to deliver oxygen to tissues may result from a reduced number of normal circulating red blood cells are reduction in the number of the oxygen binding proteins and red blood cells called haemoglobin:
Anaemia
Common forms of anaemia;
Aplastic, anemia: red bone marrow feels to produce division number of normal blood cells
Iron deficiency anaemia : caused by lack of available iron, resulting in less amount of haemoglobin
Sickle cell anaemia : which haemoglobin is defective within cells, resulting in miss shaped red blood cells that cause obstructions in blood vessels
Pernicious, anaemia : caused by failure to acquire vitamin B 12 into the bloodstream for delivery to red bone marrow required to produce new red puzzles
Bacterium disease that has been threatened to be used in bioterrorism, which is the application of disease, causing microorganisms to cause harm to a population. Spores of the back to your concern via within a powder that can be distributed through the air, making it very dangerous. If inhaled is usually fatal blackening affects the infection has on skin and lungs.
Anthrax
Disease that is caused by a persons own immune response attacking otherwise healthy tissues, literally means self exempt or self immunity. Examples of this includes rheumatoid arthritis systemic lupus, Aretha, Matosas, multiple sclerosis, and psoriasis, triggering mechanism of a disease not yet known
Auto immune disease
Lethal form of foodborne illness caused by the ingestion of food contaminated with a neurotoxin produced by a bacterium usually occurs when canned food is not prepared properly, and is often fatal because one of the extreme toxic nature
Botulism
Botulism
clostridium botulinum
disease that is capable of transmission from one person to another also known as contagious disease. It may be transmitted by direct contact with an infected person indirectly by way of contact with infected body, fluids, or other materials, or by way of vectors. Usually biting AnthroPod such as mosquitoes ticks and fleas
Communicable disease
An infectious disease resulting in acute inflammation of the mucous membranes, primarily in the mouth and throat derived from the Greek word, leather characterized by formation of an obstructive leather, like membrane in the throat. It’s now very rare thanks to the vaccine.
Diphtheria
Difficult temperament any abnormal condition of the blood. Apparently this condition was named after a correlation between a difficult temperament and blood disease.
Dyscrasia
Leakage of fluid from the bloodstream into the interstitial space between body cells causing swelling, and is one aspect of inflammation Greek word, oldema which means swelling
edema
Fungal infection that spreads throughout the body by way of the bloodstream
fungemia
Fungal septicemia
Mass of blood outside blood vessels, and confined within an organ or space within the body, usually included form, commonly known as a bruise or tears, and when it is visible through the skin, usually the result of injury or disease
Hematoma
Disease that affects haemoglobin within the red blood cells literally means disease a blood protein
Hemoglobinopathy
Inherited bleeding disorder that results from defective are missing blood clotting proteins that are necessary components in the coagulation process because the clotting proteins normally stop the loss of blood after minor injuries patient suffering from this experience as a normal loss of blood with any physical injury
Hemophilia
Infectious disease that causes internal bleeding or internal haemorrhoids and high fevers diseases, often caused by viruses, such as Ebola, and some forms exhibit a higher rate of mortality
Hemorrhagic fever
condition that is caused by a medical treatment. An example of the development of a MRSA infection following a surgical procedure.
Iatrogenic disease
Disease that develops without a known or apparent cause
Idiopathic disease
Condition, resulting from a defective immune response is called blank. It occurs when there are insufficient numbers of functional white blood cells, especially lymphocytes available to defend the body from sources of infection. Closely related term is immunocompromised
Immunodeficiency
Production of an immune response may be caused by disease or by use of chemical pharmacological or immuno logic agents, the suppressed status of the immune response that result is called
Immuno suppression
Combination of two blood types that result in the destruction of red blood cells may occur during a blood transfusion, causing severe consequences good in the possibility of death, if the donor blood antibodies attack the recipient red blood cells
Incompatibility
Multiplication of disease, causing microorganisms, or pathogens in the body
Infection
Disease caused by infection is called
Infectious disease
Physiological process that serves as the body’s initial response to injury in many forms of illness involves the swelling of body, tissues, swelling results from the movement of plasma from capillaries into the extracellular space to produce oedema or fluid accumulation in tissues, swelling, redness, heat pain
inflammation
Viral disease characterized by fever, and an acute inflammation of respiratory mucous membranes commonly called the flu, highly contagious, and the virus is capable of mutating to escape detection by white blood cells
Influenza
Form of cancer literally means condition of white blood cells, originate from cells within the blood, forming tissue of the red marrow primary tumour of leukaemia spreads throughout the red marrow transforming the blood, forming to shoot into a dysfunctional master produces of normal white blood cells in a very large numbers and red blood cells and fewer numbers as a result common symptoms of this include immuno deficiency, the development of opportunistic infections and malaise, low energy resulting from the reduce production of red blood cells
Leukaemia
Inflammation of the lymph nodes, acute form is common during infections. Chronic form indicates a more serious disorder, such as lymphoma.
Lymphadenitis
General term for a form of cancer that begins in a type of white blood cell called a lymphocyte
Lymphoma
Two main categories of lymphomas
Hodgkin’s lymphoma (altered lymphocytes) and non-Hodgkin’s lymph Alma (NHL) (fast growth and slow growth forms)
disease caused by a parasitic protozoan that affects red blood cells in the liver during different parts of its lifecycle. The vector or carrier of the protozoan is the end of fleas mosquito and symptoms of it include periodic flareups or high fever literally means bad air, referring to the swampy marsh lands, where the mosquitoes proliferate to cause higher incidences of the disease.
Malaria
Acute viral disease that often begins as a fever, followed by the development of a skin rash containing numerous vesicles, and often accompanied by a general inflammation of the respiratory tract. Clinical cinnamon is rubella derived from word that means many little spots.
Measles
Viral disease characterized by enlarged lymph nodes and spleen, atypical lymphocytes, throat, pain, pharyngitis, fever, and fatigue caused by the Epstein-Barr virus and is a communicable disease derived from the disease is characteristic feature of the presence of a normally high numbers of a certain type of white blood cell called mono nuclear Eco sites in a blood sample
Mononucleosis
Death of one or more cells, or a portion of tissue or organ
Necrosis
infectious disease that his contract during a Hospital stay
Nosocomial infection
any infectious disease that is widespread and causes extensive mortality comes from Latin word play ago, which means to strike or beat
 Plague
caused by the bacterium, yersinia pestis, characterized by high fever in large lymph nodes, called buboes skin discolouration internal haemorrhage and pneumonia, bacteria transmitted by the bite of a flea that may jump from small mammals, such as rats to humans
Bubonic plague
viral infection that is spread from the saliva I’m gonna be infected animal, usually by way of a bass Latin means savage. Your fears which refers to the velocity of infected animals. Virus ask on the central nervous system to cause, paranoia and paralysis, and is usually fatal almost early diagnosis and treatment has provided
Rabies also called Hydro phobia
systemwide disease caused by the presence of bacteria and their toxins in the circulating blood if not treated quickly may progress and do a life-threatening systemic inflammatory response, known as sepsis
