Aplastic-Anemia

Blood cells generally are produced from Bone Marrow. When the bone marrow does not produces enough new cells, that condition is called Aplasia. Anemia is caused when the count of red blood cells decreases in blood. In Aplastic Anemia, all the blood cells, red as well as white platelets get reduced. Aplastic Anemia is a blood disorder.

Red Blood Cells in the body help to supply oxygen and other nutrients to all the cells. They also help in sending out Carbon dioxide through lungs. White blood cells fight diseases and infections. Platelets help in stopping bleeding.

Decrease in the number of white blood cells leads to decrease in immunity and when platelets are decreased blood will lose the property of clotting.

Symptoms of Aplastic Anemia

Aplastic Anemia is a blood disorder in which lower red blood cell, white blood cell and platelet count can be observed.

• Low red blood cell count causes the most common symptom which is tiredness. Red blood cells will not contain enough hemoglobin and this causes fatigue. It also causes dizziness, headaches, coldness in hands and feet, chest pain and shortness of breath. The skin becomes pale. As the heart will have to work hard because of lack of hemoglobin carrying red blood cells irregular heartbeats or enlarged heart problems can be found. Sometimes the patient may also get heart attack.
• Main function of white blood cells is to fight infections. When these are lower than normal in the blood, the patient may get attacked by frequent and severe infections.
• Platelets help to seal small cuts and also help to stop bleeding. When the platelets are not in enough numbers in blood, blood loses the property of clotting and it will be hard to stop bleeding. Nose bleeding, gum bleeding, blood in stools and menstrual bleeding in women are common types of bleeding that cannot be stopped when the patient is suffering from Aplastic Anemia.

Pancreas Significance

Pancreas is a gland that does its function very silently. The infection caused to this particular part is called pancreatitis. This can be prevented by being away from bad habits like smoking and alcohol. Many of us don’t know much about Pancreas. This is vital organ that helps in the process of digestion. We do not know about this organ till it has some problem. With bad habits like drinking alcohol this type of infection is seen. With pancreatitis stomach ache and some other intense problems are experiences.

What is pancreas?

Pancreas is a gland in the shape of a leaf. It can be divided into four parts like head, neck, body, tail. There is a duct in middle of this gland. The juices secreted by the pancreas flow through this duct. The excretions flow into the duodenum. The diameter of this duct will be 16^th part of an inch. The duct from the gall bladder and the duct from the pancreas meet at a place called Ampulla of vater.

Functions of pancreas: The functions of pancreas are of two types 1. Exocrine 2. Endocrine.

• Exocrine: It secrets the juices that are useful in digestion. The juices speed up the process of digestion.
• Endocrine: Some of the juices mix with the blood and help in process of metabolism. These effect cells and their network. But in pancreas, 90% of enzymes participate in the digestion process. The cells called Acinar in pancreas produce enzymes. These enzymes are used in the building up of proteins, fats, carbohydrates. These help in the absorption of nutrients by the body. The solution that flows from Acinar cells make the enzymes work properly. This solution is called pancreatic juice.

The substances in pancreatic enzymes:

Pancreatic Proteases (these secrete Trippin chymotrypsins in the process of digestion). These are useful in the digestion of proteins.

Pancreatic amylase: These juices digest the Sugars.

Pancreatic Lipase: These digest the fats.

Approximately 4% of hormones are secreted by pancreas. This highly influences the metabolism rate of body. Some hormones are secreted by Islets of Lagerhans.

• Insulin: This controls the % of sugar in blood.
• Glucagon: This works with insulin in the maintenance of sugar levels in the blood.
• Somatostatin: This controls some other hormones.
• Gastrin: This helps in the process of digestion.

Pancreas works on the indications of nervous system. As soon as we take food pancreas gets indications by the nervous system. As soon as this indication is received by the pancreas it produces pancreatic juice. Acinar cells become active and enzymes are secreted. They flow into duodenum from there. As they reach the duodenum the process of digestion of food gets initiated.

Sometimes the enzymes that should digest the food in pancreas start digesting in the pancreas itself. (Actually the enzymes become active after they reach the duodenum but sometimes they become active in the pancreas only. So the inflammation in the pancreas starts. In some Pancreatitis gets treated by itself in some weeks. Once if the pancreas gets trouble the surrounding parts die. This is called Necrosis. The enzymes from the pancreas enter the blood and damage other parts also. This results in shock, breathing problems, kidney failure.
