Assignment:
The identification of allergens linked to biological agents' exposure and their differentiation from chemicals agents is the most challenging issue identified in this review - although it is the most researched issue - as the exact cause of the allergy at the agent level cannot easily be identified. In the literature on allergenic agents, a differentiation between chemical agent and biological agent is not normally applied, although there are cases where a link between a substance originating from microorganisms and allergenic effects is elucidated. Some of the main causes are identified this report and include organic dust, moulds in buildings, flour dust, industrial enzymes, and specific bacteria occurring for example in waste management, wood processing and metalwork.
1. Does temporal arteritis headache or other pain respond to non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs?
2. What is the recommended target of total and low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol in secondary prevention of ischaemic stroke?
3. Is intravenous sodium nitroprusside contraindicated in lowering resistant hypertension secondary to primary intracerebral haemorrhage?
4. After how long can a patient with primary intracerebral haemorrhage safely be prescribed aspirin for secondary prophylaxis of further ischemic strokes? Or should aspirin no longer be prescribed in this case?
5. Does occlusion of the recurrent Heubner's artery result in weakness of the upper limb that is proximal more than distal?
6. I have recently been told by fellow cardiologists that statins have a role to play in the acute management of myocardial infarction: is this true? And does this extend to the acute management of ischemic stroke?
7. What is captocormia?
8. Should mannitol be prescribed to patients with primary intracerebral haemorrhage with signs of impending herniation and is it contraindicated in patients with heart failure or liver cell failure?
9. What is the clinical significance of a positive Babinski sign with no knee jerk?
10. Is a high serum level of triglycerides 200-400 mg a risk factor for ischaemic stroke?
