Articles on Healthy Lifestyle – Page 86
The attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is receiving increasing attention from the scientific community, as it is one of the most common behavioral problems in childhood. Often, genetic factors underlie this disorder, influencing children’s behavior and attention capacity. Various research aims to better understand this complex condition and to find new approaches to diagnosis and treatment. Recent studies show that children diagnosed with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder often exhibit genetic anomalies. These abnormalities manifest in the structure of DNA, such as missing or extra DNA segments. For researchers, these findings are particularly important, as they may contribute to a deeper understanding of the disorder and the development of future treatment…

Prostate Cancer: Obesity Increases the Risk of Aggressive Cancer
The excess weight and obesity can cause numerous health issues, and increasing research supports that these factors also elevate the risk of developing and progressing prostate cancer. Among men, prostate cancer is one of the most common malignancies, with a significant mortality rate. It is particularly concerning for obese men that more aggressive forms of the disease are more common, and the chances of recurrence are higher. Researchers are continuously investigating the connections between body weight and prostate cancer to better understand the risk factors and opportunities for prevention. The progression of prostate cancer and its relation to body weight The progression of prostate cancer is heavily dependent not only…

Abdominal pain, limb discomfort, and confusion – Have you heard of porphyria?
Porphyria is a rare, inherited disease characterized by disturbances in the formation of hemoglobin, the blood pigment. The name of the disease derives from the Greek word “porphyreos,” which refers to the purplish-red urine that is one of its most characteristic symptoms. In Hungary, approximately 150 people live with a porphyria diagnosis, but this number is likely higher as the disease often remains hidden. There are two main types of porphyrias: acute and chronic forms, which present with different clinical manifestations. Characteristics of Porphyria Porphyria involves a dysfunction in the enzymes necessary for the production of hemoglobin, leading to the accumulation of porphyrins and their precursors in the body, which…

Hip Pain in Youth and Adulthood
A hip pain can occur at various ages, and in many cases, different underlying causes are behind the problem. The signals of pain affect not only the older generation but can also occur in younger generations. Due to the complex structure and functions of the hip joint, understanding the causes of pain is essential for proper diagnosis and treatment. Determining the Causes of Hip Pain When determining the causes of hip pain, the patient’s age plays an important role, as different conditions may arise in children, adolescents, and adults. Additionally, the localization of pain, its type, and accompanying symptoms can help identify possible conditions. Below, we will review the most…

The Mysteries of DNA – Uncovering Our Genetic Heritage
A modern scientific research is continuously making new discoveries about the human genome, which plays a key role in understanding genetic health. The human genome, which carries the genetic information of humans, has an extremely complex structure and often contains segments that are not fundamentally necessary for maintaining a healthy life. This phenomenon raises the question of why these non-essential genes are needed and how they affect human health. The Role of Non-Essential Genes During the evolutionary process, genes have continuously changed, and in many cases, the role of non-essential segments has diminished. The scientific community is increasingly concluding that certain parts of the human genome can be omitted without…
