Alzheimer’s disease is a neurodegenerative disorder characterized by an insidious onset, a gradual decline in cognitive functions, a constant but frequent occurrence of non-cognitive disturbances (psychological and behavioral disorders) and inexorably leading to a loss of functional autonomy. Alzheimer’s dementia corresponds to the stage of the illness during which the clinical symptoms (affecting memory and other areas) are sufficient to alter the activities of everyday life. Typical Alzheimer’s disease (common form) is characterized by the installation of an early and significant progressive deficit of the episodic memory that will always remain dominant. Behavioral and psychological symptoms of dementia represent common clinical features of dementias, contributing to the heterogeneous phenotypic expression of Alzheimer’s disease. Recently proposed diagnostic criteria, in addition to the clinical neuropsychological examination aimed at identifying the typical AD symptoms, include staging criteria based on AD biological measures related to its pathology.

Bell's Palsy: Current Status-Juniper Publishers
Bell's Palsy: Current Status by Avinash Shankar in TBSND - Juniper Publishers
Bell's palsy, an acute ipsilateral peripheral facial weakness equally affect both sexes, both side of the face and its incidence is 20 people per lakh of population, lowest <10 years age and highest >70 years. Female during 3rd month of pregnancy is more prone as HSV susceptibility is more during the period while children are more susceptible during winter. In life time 1 in 65 persons suffers with Bell's palsy and 7% patient may have recurrence in mean gap of 9-10 years of first episode [1-6].
Normally Bell’s palsy start to regain its motor function of its own within 3 weeks but commonly fails to recover completely and presents with sequel like- Chronic loss of taste (Ageusia), Chronic facial spasm, Facial pain, Corneal injury, Synkinesis, Tinitus and gestational sweating. In addition abnormal nerve regeneration may present with-Crocodile tear (Lacrimation of ipsilateral eye during chewing) and jaw winking (Closure of the ipsilateral eye lid on opening the jaw) [7,8].
The medical literature affirm that 33% patient present with incomplete recovery and associated sequel. The commonly used therapeutic constitutes Antiviral, steroid, neurovitamin andphysical therapy but fails to achieve complete cure and presents with sequel even after 6 months of therapy [9,10].

Necessity to Identify the Clinical Usefulness of Compounds Extracted from Natural Substances in Dementia-Related Neurons Induced By Aluminum, a Dementia Inducer- Juniper Publishers
Dementia-Related Neurons Induced By Aluminum, a Dementia Inducer by Yong-Jun Cha in TBSND - Juniper Publishers
Dementia is roughly classified into vascular dementia and Alzheimer disease, and the rate of dementia varies according to race or gender [1]. Asians are more prevalent in vascular dementia than westerners and women have a higher prevalence of Alzheimer dementia than men [2].
Aging of neuronal cells can cause Alzheimer dementia, which can lead to daily life by totally relying on the help of others by lowering human mental ability and intellectual function [3]. In addition, modern people are exposed to vascular dementia easily due to severe workload and mental stress caused by high industrialization, resulting in decreased brain function and cerebrovascular disorder [4-6]. A common feature of Alzheimer dementia or vascular dementia is that it causes neuronal death or cell degeneration. In particular, Alzheimer dementia is characterized by pathologic features such as neurofibrillary tangles or senile plaques due to P-amyloid proteins [7].

Managing Dopa Induced Involuntary Movements with Neurologic Music Therapy by Harshdeep Singh in TBSND - Juniper Publishers
Parkinson's disease is a degenerative condition of the central nervous system, which majorly affects the motor system. The condition progresses slowly over time causing symptoms like tremors, rigidity, slowness of movement and difficulty in walking in the beginning and dementia follows along with these symptoms in the advanced stages as the disease progresses. There are four cardinal motor symptoms in Parkinson's disease, which are tremor, rigidity, bradykinesia and gait instability. There is no cure for Parkinson's disease but certain treatments are available which slows down the progression of the disease by countering the symptoms [1]. There is also surgical management of implanting electrode for deep brain stimulation, which reduce these motor symptoms. However the underlying cause of Parkinson's disease is not well understood.

The Plasma Cholinesterase Activity as a Marker of Effectiveness of Rivastigmine- Juniper Publishers Koji Hori
The Plasma Cholinesterase Activity as a Marker of Effectiveness of Rivastigmine by Koji Hori in TBSND - Juniper Publishers
In Japan, three medicines are available as a cholinesterase inhibitor for mild to moderate stage in Alzheimer's type dementia, i.e. donepezil, galantamine and rivastigmine. In Japan, donepezil was allowed in 1999 and other two medicines were allowed in 2011. Therefore, main separation of these three medicines is those between donepezil and (rivastigmine or galantamine). In this article we note the separation between donepezil and rivastigmine.
There is no convention and rule for using these three medicines for different purposes. Of course no separation between donepezil and rivastigmine. In fact, physicians are not conscious about the differentiation of these three medicines. It is only emphasized that rivastigmine is available as patch type and two medicines are available as oral administration type. Therefore, in the situation of prescription of rivastigmine, it is emphasized that we should prescribe rivastigmine when the patient refuse to take medicine. It is also emphasized that in order to be calm, it is important for patients and their caregivers, we should provide the opportunity providing them skin ship (direct contact between them and their caregivers thought facial shins)".

How the World Turns Evil! Abortionismo by Samuel A Nigro in TBSND - Juniper Publishers
A culture accepting abortion has unconscious psychosocial “killing” superlatives throughout... or will have... Abortion kills empathy. No empathy, no heart, no mind. Death of another is not felt. Evil is internalized and desired... and acting out killing, one way or another, increases “self-worth” by the thoughtless acting out of emotions. All is denied of course, but living a lie is unlimited and becomes one lie after another... all “decreasing reality and being” (which is the definition of “evil”). “TERRORISM,” all violence and virtuelessness are hate-full “ABORTIONISMO” today. Yes. The psychological acceptance of abortion (and contraception) have resulted, after about fifty years, in: (1) the acceptance of killing as a “solution” in the social structure, and “killing” pervades subliminally, which “kills America” in those for abortion, i.e., the Berkeley Campus un-Americans et al. (2) the destruction of childhood to the degree of selling children for sex use; (3) education became brainwashing and indoctrination to “kill” and no longer “how to think and reason” but only to imitate liberal professors; (4) the sex act changed from nature’s reproduction method, by the psychosocial pheromone known as “marriage” for humans, to an emotional excretory act which as a social construct has destroyed the meaning of human “gender” thereby emotionally deforming human relationships primarily into planetary pollution of global masturbation (“sexcretion”);

Ronnie and Lovejoy: A Narrative of Giving and Remission of Suicidal Intentions by Hani Raoul Khouzam in TBSND - Juniper Publishers
His name was Ronnie. His parents called him Ronnie Runabout and nicknamed him "Run Ronnie Run.” They told him that he ran before he walked. At the age of 11 months, he was running in the house, and they couldn’t stop him to even teach him how to walk.
Ronnie was a lovely little boy who was adopted by a childless couple, after the tragic death of his parents in a house fire. He was told that his ancestors were Native Americans from New England. With immigrants settling to the New World, his ancestor’s tribe, lost its identity and distinct culture. Ronnie adoptive parents were Anglo-Saxon Protestants with a sense of pride, honor and valor. They were established and settled in the foothills of the North-Eastern Mountains. They managed a ski resort part time; and the rest of the time operated a quaint bed and breakfast accommodation. Ronnie became the joy and the center of his parents’ life. Due to his unmatched ability to run, his parents thought that he would become a famous athlete and one day competes in the Olympics as a runner. Throughout his school years, Ronnie competed in many races and won them all. He had a dream that one day he would run and win the Olympic Marathon.

A Case Report of Traumatic Temporal Cephalocele- Juniper Publishers
A 40-year-old male patient, hit by a car two years ago, evolved with hypoacusis (hearing impairment) and tissue projecting into the left external auditory canal, detected by otoscopic examination.
A computed tomography revealed an oblique fracture of the left temporal bone associated with hypoattenuation of the adjacent cerebral parenchyma compatible with parenchymal contusion. Bone discontinuity of the tympanic tegmen with the presence of hypo attenuating material in the tympanic cavity and in the homolateral mastoid cells was also observed, this being non-specific to the method.
Subsequently submitted to a magnetic resonance of the skull, meningoencephalic content was distinguished within the tympanic cavity from the middle cranial fossa/tympanic tegmen, representing post-traumatic cephalocele.

Managing Dopa Induced Involuntary Movements with Neurologic Music Therapy by Harshdeep Singh in TBSND - Juniper Publishers
Parkinson disease is neuro-degenerative movement disorder which progress slowly over time and affects a person's activity of daily living. The cause and cure has not been found yet. There are some treatments available, which can slow down the progression of the disease by countering the symptoms. Long-term use of medications results in involuntary movements, which becomes a problem for the person as well as for the clinician as the medication cannot be taken off. In the recent times a new rehabilitation discipline known as Neurologic Music Therapy has shown significant improvement in the Parkinson's disease symptoms. This paper provides a review of Parkinson's disease and the Neurologic Music Therapy techniques used in Parkinson's disease. The paper also attempts to provide the management of medication induced involuntary movements in Parkinson's disease by using Neurologic Music Therapy.

Psychiatrists as Prescribers Versus Holistic Providers of Mental Health Treatment-Juniper publishers
Psychiatrists as Prescribers Versus Holistic Providers of Mental Health Treatment by Hani Raoul Khouzam in TBSND - juniper Publishers
With the many recent advances in the pharmacological treatment of
psychiatric conditions.The pharmaceutical industry has been vigorous in
promoting their products as being very effective intervention for the
treatment of mental and psychiatric conditions. Health insurance
companies have also been very restrictive in reimbursing psychiatrists
for their clinical services if they do not prescribe medications for
their patients' treatment [1].
As a result, many psychiatrists have been pressured to limit their
scope of practice to prescribing medications and have been labeled as
prescribers as opposed to being physicians who specialize in providing
comprehensive and holistic mental health treatment to patients who
suffer from psychiatric conditions [2].
The purpose of this commentary is to redefine the role of psychiatrists
not just as prescribers but as providers of their time honored calling
as holistic healer of mental illness.

Helping Children Understand Social Shades of Gray; (TBSND)-Juniper Publishers
One of the many challenges of growing up is contained
within the sometimes mysterious world of peer culture: misunderstood
meanings of social behavior. The emphasis on dichotomizing peer behavior
as either good or bad, reinforced by the broad definitions of bullying,
has planted the seeds for many children to label peers as either nice
or mean. This sets the stage for personalization, avoidance, accusation,
and other social traps that are the result of skewed perceptions.
Difficulty understanding social shades of gray can be resolved when
children learn how to consider that the vast majority of peer behavior
is not nice nor mean, but in-between. If your child is often caught in the black and white
blinders of peer perception read on for ways to help them appreciate the
subtleties and shades of peer life.
