/in /by

The neurostomatological syndromes are common syndromes among neurological diseases, and their diagnosis and treatment are relevant due to the variety of clinical manifestations and intensity of pain paroxysms. Trigeminal neuralgia is the most common type of prosopalgia. Due to the frequent occurrence of the disease and the very high intensity of pain paroxysms, the difficulty of diagnosis and difficulties in treatment, it is of great scientific and practical importance. Modern methods of treatment of trigeminal neuralgia are conservative, surgical and physiotherapeutic methods, which are prescribed depending on the type of neuralgia. The article provides information about the pathogenesis of trigeminal neuralgia, diagnostic methods and modern treatment methods.

/in /by

Diabetes mellitus, or commonly known as diabetes, is a metabolic disorder characterized by chronic hyperglycemia which results in insulin resistance, impaired insulin synthesis, or sometimes both. Diabetes affects roughly 400 million people worldwide and the majority being those who are from middle to low income countries. With 1.5 million diabetes related deaths worldwide each year, this literature review aims to give information about the 2 types of diabetes and also highlighting the appropriate preventative measures. Type 1 diabetes refers to the lack of insulin production and type 2 diabetes refers to lower production of insulin and increased insulin resistance; both will result in hyperglycemia in diabetic patients. Furthermore, this literature review also aims to explore and describe the pathogenesis and treatments of the 2 types of diabetes.

Due to the re-emergence of infectious diseases, the causative pathogenic microorganisms are becoming the major microbiologic public health threat. It seems to be difficult to control the emergence of new and severe bacterial diseases. However, efforts are continuously being made to identify the main cause to prevent the uncontrolled spread of emerging diseases. This review focuses on emerging bacterial diseases and their causative bacteria and the pathway of pathogenesis.
