#AtoZofdementia
Once amyloid starts to affect brain cells, it is thought to trigger a cascade of events, much like starting a row of falling dominoes. The brain’s immune cells become overactive and start to cause more harm than good. Blood flow can also be affected.

Kohlekraftwerke gehören sowohl in 🇩🇪 als auch in Europa zu den verheerendsten Quellen von giftigen & gesundheitsschädigenden Luftschadstoffen. Schwefeldioxid (SO2), Stickoxide (NOx), Ruß & Staubemissionen aus Kohle sind die größten industriellen Ursachen von Feinstaub und Smog!
Dieser dringt tief in die Lungen ein und wird ebenfalls vom Blutkreislauf aufgenommen. Nicht nur Feinstaub - auch zehntausende Kilogramm toxischer und krebserregender Metalle wie Quecksilber, Blei, Arsen und Cadmium gelangen aus dem Schlot der Kohlekraftwerke in unsere Körper.

$TDOC, the first and only comprehensive virtual care system, offering more than 450 specialities/subspecialties

In our opinion, Livongo acquisition (with its specialities, AI and data capabilities) establishes Teladoc as a true telehealth giant and expands its competitive advantage over companies like $AMWL and $OTRK.

The pain inflicted by the pandemic has devastating effects on sustainable development, the concept that reflects the complexity of our world by combining and juxtaposing the socio, economic and environmental aspects of human activity #SDGs
The direct effects of #COVID19 on sustainable development come from the adverse health outcomes of the virus, and the extent to which its rate of mortality and morbidity impacts on the size and health of the labour force and its productivity (#SDG3) @WHO @ilo @UNDP @UN_Women
This in turn affects, for example, the fight against poverty (#SDG1), the number of people at risk of famine (#SDG2), education outcomes (#SDG4), economic growth and employment (#SDG8), and more. @UNDP @SUN_Movement @WHO @FAO @UNICEF @ITU @UNOCHA

C-section- a surgical procedure through the anterior abdomen and uterus to deliver the baby, placenta & its membrane.

Can be elective; planned by you and your doctor or emergency ; as an urgent intervention to avoid or treat complications.
@AkindeCassandra
#NaijaOBGYNdoctor
Situations where you shouldn't reject C/S
1. Placenta previa- the placenta won't let baby pass through for vaginal delivery

2. Twins; 1st twin is coming with buttock

3. You have had 2 or more C/S before.

4. If you have had fibroid/ any surgery on your uterus before.
