Motion Sickness

Over 2000 years ago the Greek physician Hippocrates wrote, “sailing on the sea proves that motion disorders the body.” Indeed, the word “nausea” derives from the Greek root word naus, hence “nautical,” meaning a ship. The primary signs and symptoms of motion sickness are nausea and vomiting. Motion sickness can be provoked by a wide variety of transport environments, including land, sea, air, and space. The recent introduction of new visual technologies may expose more of the population to visually induced motion sickness. This chapter describes the signs and symptoms of motion sickness and different types of provocative stimuli. The “how” of motion sickness (i.e., the mechanism) is generally accepted to involve sensory conflict, for which the evidence is reviewed. New observations concern the identification of putative “sensory conflict” neurons and the underlying brain mechanisms. But what reason or purpose does motion sickness serve, if any? This is the “why” of motion sickness, which is analyzed from both evolutionary and nonfunctional maladaptive theoretic perspectives. Individual differences in susceptibility are great in the normal population and predictors are reviewed. Motion sickness susceptibility also varies dramatically between special groups of patients, including those with different types of vestibular disease and in migraineurs. Finally, the efficacy and relative advantages and disadvantages of various behavioral and pharmacologic countermeasures are evaluated.

Exit ventriculoperitoneal shunt; enter endoscopic third ventriculostomy (ETV): contemporary views on hydrocephalus and their implications on management

Hydrocephalus has been known to affect humans since the birth of human medicine as it is described by Hippocrates. The management of this condition is however still dodged by challenges due to a poor understanding of its pathophysiology. The ventriculoperitoneal shunt presents considerable problems especially with respect to infection and shunt malfunction. Low income countries, that currently face the greater burden of paediatric hydrocephalus. experience an increased challenge with ventriculoperitoneal shunts due to a shortage of qualified personnel to handle shunt complications. Recent advances in neuro-endoscopic surgery have presented opportunities for alternative treatment options for hydrocephalus such as endoscopic third ventriculostomy (ETV). This paper explores the alternative views in the pathophysiology of hydrocephalus and how they explain the effectiveness of ETV in treating hydrocephalus arising from a variety of causes.

Saúde e remédios caseiros

Inserido no âmbito do Projeto Europeu “My Food My Medicine” (Meu Alimento Meu Medicamento), que tem como ideia base o conselho de Hipócrates de que a nossa alimentação deve ser o nosso medicamento, realizou-se um Trabalho de Projeto de formação sobre a manutenção da saúde através da promoção de uma alimentação saudável e pela recuperação do uso de receitas tradicionais/caseiras de medicamentos naturais usados ancestralmente na resposta aos distúrbios de saúde mais comuns. Objetivos Gerais: O principal objetivo do projeto é levar os participantes a compreender os princípios e receitas da medicina tradicional e natural, as características dos ingredientes e os seus benefícios para a saúde. Metodologia: Elaboração de um projeto de formação com materiais educativos, testados pela sua aplicação, e realização de questionários a formadores e formandos. Resultados: Verificou-se algum conhecimento por parte dos formandos de grande parte das receitas de remédios caseiros, embora por vezes com alguma desconfiança da sua eficácia, acreditamos terem ficado com intenção de usar a maior parte das receitas expostas pela sua facilidade de elaboração e pela valorização crescente da tradicionalidade e ancestralidade, julgamos desta forma poder ter contribuído para a promoção e manutenção da saúde; Abstract: As part of the European Project "My Food My Medicine” which has as its central idea the Board of Hippocrates that our food should be our medicine i.e., a healthy diet is the foundation of a healthy life, this report presents an educational project about the maintenance of health through the promotion of healthy eating that is reflected also by the use of natural medicines based on homemade/traditional recipes used ancestrally that respond to the most common health disorders. Objectives: Take the participants to understand the basic principles and the recipes of traditional medicine, the characteristics of the ingredients and their health benefits. Methodology: Development of an educational project and educational materials, tested trough out its implementation, and conducting questionnaires to trainers and trainees. Results: The objective was accomplished. It was found some familiarity on the part of the graduates of most recipes for home remedies although sometimes with some distrust of their validity. The schooling contributed to health promotion. The trainees demonstrated the intention to use the recipes exposed as a way to maintain a healthy life.
