Ashley E. Paxton and Catherine Willmott, PhD

Article Type: Research Article | First Published: April 15, 2019

In the field of sports medicine, concussions can be one of the most complex and difficult injuries to diagnose, assess and manage. This is due to the signs and symptoms often being subtle, varied and non-specific with only 10% of sport-related concussions resulting in a loss of consciousness. A multidimensional assessment model which encompasses the athlete's concussion history, presenting symptoms, cognitive capability, balance, comorbidities or other complicating factors has been suggested as best-practice. The Sports Concussion Assessment Tool, 3rd Edition (SCAT3) has been recommended inter...

A new problem, called cosmetic doping, has been inserted globally for some decades, and has grown in importance in Brazil in recent years, affecting athletes and non-athletes. The cosmetic doping consists in the use of oily substances by the intramuscular route to increase volumetrically the muscle, which can lead to the formation of oil deposits in the muscle, called oleomas, necrosis, physical deformities and even death. We present a 31-year-old male patient who sought the emergency room with a complaint of daily fever for 5 months of sudden onset, intermittent character, higher temperature ...

Since 1950 to 2018, about 6.3 billion tonnes of plastics have been produced worldwide, 9% and 12% of which have been recycled and incinerated, respectively. Human population increase and consistent demand for plastics and plastic products are responsible for continuous increase in the production of plastics, generation of plastic waste and its accompanied environmental pollution. We have reviewed in this paper, the most relevant literatures on the different types of plastics in production, the hazardous chemical constituents, prevailing disposal methods and the detrimental effects of these con...

Article Type: Original Article | First Published: April 11, 2019

Alzheimer's disease is an age-related and irreversible disease and characterized progressively decline in cognitive functions such as memory, speech, executive functions and visual-spatial skills. Currently, there is no a simple and definitive diagnosis method for clinical management. It is possible to diagnose with 85-90% accuracy with clinical assesment and neuropsychological tests. The precisely-known risk factors associated with Alzheimer's disease are aging, family history, and the presence of the Apolipoprotein E Ɛ4 (APO E4) allele. Alzheimer's disease is usually sporadic and about only...
