What causes a migraine? The exact cause of migraines remains unclear, though research suggests a genetic component may be involved. Triggers are factors that can provoke migraine symptoms. Common migraine triggers include: •Stress •Hormonal fluctuations •Certain medications •Sleep pattern disruptions •Weather changes •Excessive physical exertion •Substances like caffeine or tobacco •Skipping meals •Exposure to bright lights, loud sounds, or strong smells Your healthcare provider may suggest tracking your symptoms with a migraine journal to help identify specific triggers.How is a migraine diagnosed?

Often, parents, having heard their child cough for weeks, begin to worry a lot and forget about a very important fact: cough is not an enemy, but a friend, one of the body's protective reflexes.Coughing helps clear the respiratory tract of foreign particles, such as bacteria or accumulated mucus.However, no matter how "harmless" the cough is, if it persists for 2-3 weeks, it is necessary to consult a pediatrician and re-evaluate the child's condition. As is known, the main cause of cough is respiratory viral infections - self-limited seasonal viral diseases transmitted by airborne droplets (when coughing or sneezing, touching household items or toys of an infected child). They usually begin in the fall and continue until the end of spring (or, as they say, until the end of the school year). In addition to coughing, respiratory viral infections are often accompanied by the following symptoms: runny nose, fever (38° and above), chills and tremors, headache, muscle pain, a lump in the throat, and sometimes vomiting or diarrhea. A lingering cough after an infection can persist even after the main symptoms have disappeared, for up to several weeks.

General information Insulin is a peptide hormone produced by the beta cells of the pancreas. It is a key hormone regulating glucose metabolism and is also involved in protein synthesis and triglyceride storage. Type 1 diabetes mellitus (insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus) is caused by insulin deficiency due to the destruction of insulin-producing islet (beta) cells of the pancreas. Type 2 diabetes mellitus (non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus) is characterized by insulin resistance. Insulin levels may be elevated in patients with pancreatic beta cell tumors (insulinomas). An increase in the concentration of insulin in the blood is called hyperinsulinemia. In this case, the glucose content in the blood drops sharply, which can lead to hypoglycemic coma and even death, since brain activity directly depends on the concentration of glucose. Therefore, it is very important to monitor glucose levels during parenteral administration of insulin and other drugs used to treat diabetes.

General information Human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) is a glycoprotein hormone consisting of two subunits: α- and β-chains. The protein is produced by the trophoblast (the outer layer of blastocyst cells necessary for implantation); it serves to maintain the corpus luteum during the first weeks of pregnancy and stimulates the production of progesterone. It is believed that it is involved in the processes of sexual differentiation of the fetus. The blood serum of pregnant women contains mainly intact hCG. However, small amounts of free α- and β-subunits also circulate in the blood. Only the intact hormone is biologically active.

A cough is a natural reflex that helps your body clear irritants from the throat and lungs. Occasional coughing is normal and healthy. However, a cough that lasts for weeks or produces discolored or bloody mucus may indicate a medical issue. Coughs are classified as "acute" if they last less than three weeks and "chronic" if they persist for over eight weeks in adults or four weeks in children.Common Causes of Coughs Many things can trigger coughing, including: Irritants or Allergens • Smoke. • Strong scents. • Mold. • Dust. • Pet dander. • Mucus. • Certain medications. Conditions That Cause Acute or Short-Term Cough • Common cold. • Flu. • Acute bronchitis or bronchiolitis. • Sinusitis. • Pneumonia. • Acute allergic reaction • Whooping cough (pertussis). • Asthma. • Allergies. • Second- or third-hand smoke exposure.

An ultrasound examination is a medical procedure that uses high-frequency sound waves to produce real-time images of the inside of the body. These sound waves are harmless and do not involve radiation, making ultrasound the preferred method of monitoring a developing fetus during pregnancy, unlike X-rays or CT scans. Ultrasound scans are used to produce images of the internal structures of our bodies, organs, organ systems, muscles, tendons, enlarged lymph nodes, or the fetus in the uterine cavity.Reasons for an ultrasound may include: •Pain, suspicion of neoplasms, suspicion of kidney and gallbladder stones, nausea, bitter taste in the mouth, bloating, yellowing of the skin, mucous membranes, prolonged bleeding from the uterus, swallowing disorders, nervous irritability, palpitations, prolonged fever, etc. •Medical monitoring •Participation in various medical procedures •Checking the development of the fetus during pregnancy

An echocardiogram (or "echo") is a type of ultrasound test used to capture moving images of your heart. During the procedure, a small handheld device called a transducer is placed on your chest to emit high-frequency sound waves that produce pictures of your heart’s chambers and valves. This helps your healthcare provider assess the heart’s pumping efficiency and overall function. Echo tests often incorporate Doppler ultrasound and color Doppler techniques to evaluate blood flow across your heart’s valves. These additional features allow for a more detailed assessment of the heart's circulation. Unlike other diagnostic tests such as X-rays or CT scans, echocardiography does not involve radiation, making it a safer option for ongoing monitoring of your heart’s health. Echocardiogram vs. EKG Although both an echocardiogram and an electrocardiogram (EKG or ECG) are used to monitor heart health, they serve different purposes: • An echo focuses on the structure and function of your heart, providing dynamic images of its movement and condition. • An EKG records the electrical activity of your heart and generates a graph that displays your heart rate and rhythm.
