#Pale Cachexia

[mittensit]

Since I can't post on r/VisualNovels because I don't have enough interaction with the community to be allowed, I'll post my Visual Novel tier list here!

I won't be counting VNs I've seen others play, though Death Mark would be S tier

S: The House in Fata Morgana, THiFM:RfI, Seventh Lair, The Letter

A: Umineko, Pale Cachexia, Paranormasight

B: Sound of Drop -fall into poison-,

C: Return to Shironagasu Island,

D: Kara no Shoujo, Werewolf -Heart of the Forest-

I'll be updating this list as I play more. I'd love some suggestions for horror and msytery! (Just not Higurashi and Saya no Uto. I've consumed Higurashi as an anime and manga, Saya no Uto just no.)

Also um no I'm not biased with THiFM:RfI and Seventh Lair, it's totally not because I love THiFM so much that I live and breathe for it. 🤨 Giselle would want me to live. And Morgana would want me to curse my enemies.

[praisetheplatonicism]

Thank ye kindly for the tag, @ivaspinoza. I'm chronically indecisive, so this may take a while.

Last song: Pruning Shears, by The Amazing Devil. Aka my favourite song of all time.

Favourite Colors: sky blue's my favourite, followed by turqoise, purple, and pale green. I like my cool colours. Combine any of those with black, or silver/gold, and I melt.

Currently Watching: I'm too busy being crushed by a dissertation and final course essay due three days later to watch much right now. ...Is what I would be saying, if I were responsible. In truth, I've been revisiting my favourite episodes of Supernatural recently. They help me through the pain of writing about Renaissance lovesickness all day.

Sweet/Spicy/Savory: I generally prefer savory, but I like them all. Which is weird, cause I'm a notoriously picky eater, so I'm not sure how that happened.

Current Obsession: This is a Complicated one. I have a very obsessive personality - I tend to get taken over by whatever I'm watching, so naturally it's Supernatural right now (to be fair that one holds a special place in my heart, it never really leaves), but there's also Efteling of course, one of the loves of my life (I literally have a shrine to it in my room), then there's bromance in general (my url tells no lies), and there's depictions of lovesickness in Romeo and Juliet and Hamlet, not because I want to be but because dissertation. Past obsessions include: Undertale, Hamilton, Be More Chill, White Collar, etymology (word history is so interesting), Dutch, Othello... the list goes on.

Last things I Googled: 'cachexia', which apparently means 'weakness and wasting of the body due to severe chronic illness'. Because dissertation. Also the closing time of my nearst KFC, cause I didn't want to order too close to closing and bother the staff.

Favourite Season: Winter. I have a really nice long coat, and winter's the only time I get to wear it. So. Winter. Also I like it when it's dark ourside. Plus, pretty lights.

Skill(s)I'd Like to Learn: well I'm trying to learn Dutch at the moment, but I'm not totally sure how to go about it. I'll hopefully be living in the Netherlands next year, so it would be nice to have even foundational Dutch knowledge. I know they have extremely high English proficiency over there, but still, it feels impolite to not at least try to engage with their language.

Best advice: try not to overthink things too much. I frequently get myself tangled up in knots trying to decypher something that wasn't actually that complicated, and I end up understanding it less than when I started. Cheesy as it sounds, there is merit in listening to your gut. Sometimes you just need to let things happen rather than try to logic them into submission.

Tagging my other two moots: @penna-nomen and @ladyofthelake. As always, no pressure my dudes.

Nine people to get to know

Thanks for the tag @bloodmoonloveletter and @cssnder :)

Last song: Echoes, Pink Floyd.

Favourite Colors: Black, pink, red, purple.

Currently Watching: I rarely watch anything.

Sweet/Spicy/Savory: Savory!

Current Obsession: Etymology of words related to water.

Last things I Googled: "Chicken restaurant", "zine" and "substack"

Favourite Season: Autumn.

Skill(s)I'd Like to Learn: Survival skills.

Best advice: Don't try to fix other people's problems, just love them while they fix it themselves, because everyone has the right to figure out life and grow, and they will do it when they are ready to take responsibility and action.

announcement post

for RE:P!

RE:P Dev Log

Hello all!

A quick little update this week to lay out where we are with RE:P’s development and upcoming alpha.

Writing: Polishing Intro/First Night script, working on Night 2, outlining future chapters

2D Art: 2/2 NPC portraits complete for Alpha, MC customized portrait complete, working on intro CGs

3D Art: Rounding up models for both placeholders and potential future full-game use

Programming: RPG basic framework complete (movement, object/NPC interaction, dialogue), implementing MC customization

Alpha Progress: Roughly on target for a late December/early January Patreon release

RE:P’s alpha will be around an hour long, and showcases the intro/MC’s first night as a vampire. While only a few skills/traits will be implemented, there’ll still be a good taste of the variations and roleplaying you can expect in the full game.

What’s Next?

Next week, we’ll be revealing another NPC! Like Sal, they’re a major character, and will also show up in the alpha.

We’ll also be talking more about traits and skills soon, particularly the ones that’ll feature in the alpha! If you’re curious about what roleplaying attributes you’ll have at your disposal, keep an eye out!

There may also be a little overview of Las Vegas’ vampire underworld written by a certain new NPC, so if you’re curious about the Fourth House, the psychoplague, and the political games, stay tuned…

Q: One of the best things about the previous RE entries are the soundtracks; do you have an idea of how you would want REP to sound and can we please please have a hint?

A: Thanks for the question! We suspect there will be a dark trip-hop influence in RE:P’s soundtrack, as well as some guitar-driven and eerie ambient tracks. However, given some of the in-game action…there may be some dark electronica/dance and (hopefully) a splash of metal, if things work out!

Real-life cytological cases!

Here’s a few fun cases that I’ve explored cytologically at work, and know the conclusion of! Have a guess for a bit of fun! I definitely got a bit excited when I came across them.

1. Immature intact female canine patient with multifocal pruritic areas of alopecia. Skin is largely normal in appearance with just a bit of flaking.

2. Lethargic and pale eldery canine patient. CBC returned anaemia with signfiicant leukocytosis. No abnormalities on biochemistry.

3. Canine patient with history of epiphora (eye watering) and a hard lump forming over her eye socket.

4. Elderly female canine patient with an abdominal mass found incidentally. Presented 3 months later with increased breathing effort, cachexia, lethargy, and anorexia. Diagnosis never confirmed but strongly suspected. (Also a bonus diagnosis present).

5. Acute lymphadenopathy in a middle-aged large breed female canine patient involving the submandibular and prescapular lymph nodes in particular. 

6. (A hard one!) Small 1 cm firm subdermal nodule on the chest of a middle-aged male canine patient. Very difficult to FNA due to firmness, with acellular samples. Impression smear of mass below. Hint: there is stain artefact present.

Berberis Aquifolium

Berberis Aquifolium has a place with the Mahonia gathering of the Barberry family. It has been utilized by eclectics in constant syphilis, ongoing skin illnesses, in scrofulous cachexia, and for eliminating pimples from the essences of young ladies.

Robust reports an instance of extremely progressed auxiliary syphilis restored with it, and some trademark instances of psoriasis.

In this load of conditions it has been given in the f color 5 to 10 drops.

J. D. W. C., in Recorder, 1896, gives individual encounters with does of 10 to 15 drops every day.

On the third day felt “queasiness and denseness.” Later there was ” stressing to upchuck without spewing.” Then an impossible to miss cerebral pain, solid pressure, as though a band of iron two inches wide passed completely round head simply above ears.

It continued becoming more tight and more tight.

Solid dark espresso assuaged this after a period, yet left him quivery in nerves and unstable in step.

Ever after that a solitary drop of Berb-a. on the tongue was adequate to deflect an assault of biliousness while undermining, and saved him much difficulty of the sort to which he had in the past been obligated.

Berberis Aquifolium . has gained notoriety for making “a renewed person of an old one.” A tea made of the leaves of Berb. Mahon has a neighborhood notoriety in the mountain typhoid of the Rockies, and the provings of Berb-a. show febrile manifestations and a checked activity on the spleen.

Case to case

About 30% of deaths in cancer patients occur due to cachexia. With the number of cancer cases increasing, cachexia is a rising health concern worldwide. There is a rare case of someone who suffered cachexia due to gastric cancer. This is her story.

ZM is a female, 21-year old, Roman Catholic, and a fourth year college student currently enrolled in a university in Manila. She is originally from Bacolod City, Negros Occidental but rents a condominium unit near her university.  She was admitted in the University Health Service on July 7, 2019.

CHIEF COMPLAINT

ZM presented 4 months history of progressive abdominal pain associated with early satiety for 1 month.

HISTORY OF PRESENT ILLNESS

ZM was not mentally well six months ago up to the present. Four months prior to admission, ZM experienced pain in the upper abdomen that radiates through the back while walking to school. The pain had an intensity of about 5/10 lasting for 10 seconds and it was sudden. She felt this three times throughout the day. She did not take any medications to alleviate the pain and ignored it. She thought that it was only due to her change in diet and loss of appetite. She was able to tolerate the pain and it did not affect her daily activities. She continued her activities such as attending classes and doing schoolwork.  However, these episodes were usually felt every other week but she still ignored it and did not take necessary precautions.  

One month prior to admission, she noticed a yellowing of his skin and whites of the eyes (jaundice). She continues to have a loss of appetite and realized that aside from losing weight, loss of fat and muscle mass was also present. She would seldom eat but when she does, she felt early satiety and constant bloating.  She still never visited a doctor for a check up.

Few hours prior to admission after eating lunch (which consisted of spicy food) and while listening to a lecture in class, the pain recurred again and had an intensity of about 8/10 and the pain persisted. She also felt sudden weakness and was nauseous. She excused herself and went to the emergency room to get checked up. Due to the severity of pain, she was referred for admission.

Initial physical examination was done and when suspected with abnormalities in the abdomen, she was admitted. Upon admission, endoscopy and endoscopic ultrasound was done to find stomach cancer. Furthermore, procedures such as biopsy and imaging tests (Upper gastrointestinal (GI) series, X-ray with barium swallow, Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI), CT Scan) also followed. Even at a rare situation and at a young age, she was diagnosed with Stage IIIA Gastric Cancer and Cachexia.

Gastrectomy was performed in which the surgeon removes the part of the stomach that has tumors to help ease bleeding and pain. She is also undergoing chemotherapy to lower the risk of tumors spreading to other parts of the body. She was prescribed with DCF (docetaxel, cisplatin and 5-FU).

PAST MEDICAL HISTORY

In general, ZM’s health was good. She has complete immunization and only catches the usual childhood illnesses. She has no known allergies to any food and medications. Furthermore, she is not on any medications. She also has no previous hospitalizations, operations, or injuries.

PERSONAL HISTORY

ZM used to be a very happy and outgoing person. She also did very well in her studies. Being far from her family and hometown, she managed to balance her time very well. She usually spends most of her time with her boyfriend, friends, and was seldom visited by her family. Six months prior to admission, she and her boyfriend had an argument, which led to them breaking up despite being together for almost 3 years. According to her closest friends, she was completely miserable that her personality was not the same as before. She would usually cry most of the time and felt more alone. Due to being heartbroken, she lost her drive to do well in her studies and forgot to take care of herself.  She became antisocial and anorexic.

She also resulted to vices. She started smoking half a pack per day. On the contrary, she seldom drinks liquor and has no history of taking any illegal drugs. Her type of physical activity included activities of daily living, walking, and sports required from her physical education class. Her family did not know anything about her situation, not until she was admitted in the University of the East Ramon Magsaysay Memorial Hospital last year.

FAMILY AND SOCIO-ECONOMIC HISTORY

ZM is an only child and her parents are also Roman Catholic. She is well off and does not have any financial problems since her parents run their family business in their hometown. Her allowance ranges up to Php 20,000 a month. Thus, she is able to provide her daily needs. Her parents do not have any existing diseases but there is a known family history of lung and stomach cancer.

DIETARY HISTORY

ZM usually eats healthily three times a day but when she started losing her appetite, it decreased to only once or twice a day. She does not have any food beliefs or food taboos but she does not follow a diet. Since she does not have time to prepare food in her condominium, she skips breakfast. She only eats lunch in school and sometimes eats dinner outside. She usually eats any kind of food except vegetables. She often eats processed and fast food. Her meals usually have low caloric content since she only eats in small servings and are nutrient deficient.

PHYSICAL EXAMINATION AND LABORATORY FINDINGS

ZM’s actual body weight is 48 kg and her actual height is 163 cm. She reported that her usual body weight is 55 kg. In a span of two months, she had a severe weight loss of 7 kg. She complains of history of 6 weeks of abdominal pain and early satiety for 1-2 months. There was evidence of impaired nutritional status from wasting. The hydration status of the patient was however good.

Vital Signs:

BP = 140/90 mmHg

Height = 163 cm

Weight = 48 kg

BMI = underweight

HR = 80 bpm

RR = 19/min

Temperature = 37C

HEENT:

Eyes: extra ocular motions full, gross visual fields full to confrontation, conjunctiva clear, sclera is non-icteric, pupils equal, round and reactive to light and accommodation, presence of jaundice

Ears: Hearing is excellent, tympanic membrane landmarks well visualized

Nose: No discharge, no obstruction, no nasal deviation

Mouth: Pale lips and gums, complete set of upper and lower teeth, tongue is in midline, uvula moves up in midline, normal gag reflex

Other Findings:

Neck: No vein engorgement

Breasts: Atrophic and symmetric, non-tender, no masses or discharges

Lungs: No dullness to percussion, chest was normal in shape and expansion was equal bilaterally, diaphragm moves well with respiration, no rhonchi, wheezes or rubs

Heart: PMI at the 5th left ICS midclavicular line, no heaves or thrills, regular rhythm with occasional extra beat, normal S1 and S2, no murmur, +2 pulse

Abdomen: Soft, flat, bowel sounds present, no bruits, tender to palpation, liver edge, spleen, kidney not felt, masses felt on right upper quadrant that did not move with respiration, mass was hard with irregular margin

Extremities: Jaundice, muscle wasting, pale nail beds

Neurological: Awake, alert and fully oriented

Motor: Moves all extremities

Sensory: Grossly normal to touch and pin prick

Rectal: No masses felt, stool is brown, negative for blood

Woah, that was pretty heavy right? But I can assure you that this case is very interesting and handy. This case will help us understand why and how we can acquire certain diseases, specifically gastric cancer and cachexia. This case can also justify how biochemical pathways work and affect our body.  

I will be talking about more of these information in the next sections. I will also give an overview on the epidemiology of the diseases mentioned for more knowledge and comprehension. Stay tuned!

Manfaat Ikan Gurame

Gurame merupakan ikan air tawar yang banyak dikonsumsi karena dagingnya padat, durinya besar-besar, rasanya enak serta gurih. Di alam, gurami hidup di sungai-sungai, rawa, kolam, juga di air payau. Tetapi paling sangat suka kolam-kolam tidak terlalu dalam dengan banyak tumbuhan. Sesekali jenis ini muncul ke permukaan untuk bernapas langsung dari udara. Induk gurami, untuk beberapa waktu menjaga serta merawat anak-anaknya. Telurnya dilekatkan di tetumbuhan air atau ditaruh di sarang terbuat dari tumbuh-tumbuhan. Gurami terutama ialah pengkonsumsi tumbuhan, tetapi terkadang juga melahap serangga, ikan lain, juga barang-barang yang membusuk di air di kolam-kolam.

Kandungan Nutrisi Ikan Gurame

  Umumnya tubuh manusia memerlukan protein, sejumlah 0,75 atau 0,80 gram perkilo dari bobot tubuh, cukup banyak karena fungsinya sangat vital, untuk itu perlulah asupan protein setiap hari dalam tubuh. Ikan gurame terkenal sebagai salah satu makanan yang mengandung banyak proteinnya. Karena gurame sendiri mempunyai kandungan protein sejumlah 19% bisa kita serap. Hasil ini jauh lebih tinggi dari tipe ikan lainnya seperti lele, nila, dan ikan mas, terlebih kandungan asam amino essensial yang dihasilkan oleh hewan inipun cukup besar. Selain protein di dalam gurame, kandungan nutrisi lain dalam ikan ini salah satunya ialah lemak, yaitu sebesar 2,2%. Hasil ini dinilai lebih tinggi daripada ikan mas, yang hanya mempunyai kandungan 2% dan ikan juga berada di atas nila mempunyai kandungan hanya 0,49%. Bukan hanya itu saja, gurame juga mempunyai kandungan penting lainnya, seperti vitamin serta zat makronutrien serta mikronutrien lainya.

Manfaat Ikan Gurame Untuk Kesehatan

Gurami hampir selalu tersedia di restoran untuk dijadikan pelbagai macam kuliner. Terutama gurami bakar dan gurami asam-manis. Ikan ini berharga cukup mahal. Gurami juga disenangi sebagai ikan hias akuarium. Berikut manfaat konsumsi ikan gurame : Mencegah Penyakit Degenerative Penyakit degeneratif ialah penyakit yang umum dialami saat usia tua, atau biasa disebut penyakit menua. Beberapa penyakit tergolong degeneratif ialah tekanan darah tinggi, jantung koroner, serta kanker. Penyebab utama penyakit jantung koroner dan tekanan darah tinggi ialah, kolestrol tidak terkontrol, sedangkan sebagian besar makanan dengan nutrisi penting, juga mempunyai kadar kolestrol tinggi untuk tubuh. Salah satu makanan dengan kolestrol tinggi juga ialah kerang, udang, gajih sapi, iga, dan sebagainya, supaya nutrisi tetap terjaga, maka perlu makanan pengganti dengan nutrisi serupa, tetapi mempunyai kandungan kolestrol rendah. Contohnya ialah gurame, mempunyai protein tinggi tetapi kadar lemaknya rendah, yaitu 55mg/10 gr saja. Sebagian besar penyebab penyakit kanker ialah dikarenakan pola makanan tidak teratur, zat kimia, rokok, serta minuman keras. Kegiatan makanan tersebut sifatnya karsinogenik, atau menyebabkan terjadinya kanker pada tubuh. Ikan gurame terbukti mempunyai nutrisi cukup untuk memperkecil risiko penyakit degeneratif. Menyehatkan System Kardiovaskular Manfaat mengonsumsi gurami bisa menghindari timbulnya sakit berat, contohnya gagal jantung, maupun sakit berat lainnya. Olahan ikan gurami yang sehat dapat mencegah dari timbulnya pengumpulan trigliserida, menurunkan adanya tingkat trigliserida berlebihan, dapat memperbanyak HDL (lemak yang bagus ), dan menghindari adanya pembekuan darah. Hal tersebut secara keseluruhan bisa memudahkan sistem kerja kardiovaskuler. Mencegah Marasmus Dan Penyakit Kwashiorkor

Salah satu penyakit kekurangan gizi paling sering kita temui, pada balita usia 0 -2 tahun ialah marasmus, yaitu retardasi perkembangan tubuh dan kurangnya lemak serta otot di bawah kulit. Sehingga anak – anak yang menderita penyakit ini mempunyai tubuh sangat kurus serta lemas, seperti hanya tulang terbungkus kulit tetapi perutnya membesar. Penyakit marasmus disebabkan oleh kurangnya asupan makanan bergizi yang terkandung protein dan kalori cukup, infeksi, genetis, prematuritas, atau masalah lingkungan, penyakit ini termasuk cukup serius. Sedangkan penyakit kwasiokhor atau lebih dikenal sebagai penyakit busung lapar, yaitu penyakit malnutrisi protein umumnya menjangkit anak- anak juga balita. Penyakit ini biasanya dijumpai di daerah pedalaman, yang masih tidak perduli akan kesehatan penduduknya, sehingga kurang asupan gizinya, tandanya ialah tubuh kurus kering. Bagian tangan juga kaki tetapi perutnya buncit, sedangkan bagian wajahnya bengkak lebam. Kedua penyakit ini hamper sama, namun hal ini dapat dicegah dengan mengkonsumsi makanan bergizi dan salah satunya adalah konsumsi ikan gurame. Membantu Perkembangan Otak dan Otot Salah satu manfaat ikan gurame ialah membantu pertumbuhan otak. Asam lemak omega 3 dengan kandungan dalam gurame terbukti dapat membantu pertumbuhan sel otak, terutama untuk usia anak-anak. Tidak hanya membantu perkembangan otak, mengonsumsi gurame terbukti dapat membantu perkembangan otot. Ikan gurame mengandung kadar protein tinggi sangat bagus untuk perkembangan otot. Mempercepat Penyembuhan Luka Protein pada gurame memiliki fungsi membantu pembekuan darah jika terjadi luka, karena kandungan unsur fibrinogen dan tromboplastin. Ketika jatuh dan mengalami luka, maka darah akan keluar dari kulit. Untuk itu tubuh membutuhkan sistem pembekuan darah untuk menghentikan luka tersebut. Di sini fungsi tromboplastin bekerja. Setelah itu fibrinogen membantu dengan membentuk jaringan baru sebagai pengganti jaringan rusak akibat proses jatuh tadi. Dengan adanya stimulus fibrinogen banyak, maka kesembuhan luka juga semakin cepat. Menghindari Chacexia Dan Menghaluskan Kulit Ada lagi penyakit serius mengenai kekurangan protein yaitu cachexia. Penyakit ini membuat penderita merasa gampang kelelahan padahal hanya melakukan aktivitas ringa saja. Gejala yang timbul seperti penipisan otot, kurangnya protein, penuruman bobot tubuh secara abnormal. Saat ini sangat banyak krim atau alat kosmetik dengan kandungan protein di dalamnya,  karena salah satu fungsi protein ialah untuk membantu meregenerasi kulit, protein akan lebih bagus penyerapanya jika diolah di dalam tubuh, sehingga jika bisa tetap tampil cantik, konsumsilah ikan gurame kaya protein ini. Membantu Program Diet Jika sedang menjalani program diet, mengonsumsi gurami merupakan alternatif baik bagi tubuh. Ikan gurami kaya akan mineral, vitamin dan nutrisi. Orang yang sering mengkonsumsinya umumnya akan jarang mengkonsumsi makanan dengan banyak kandungan lemak jenuh seperti halnya pada keju atau daging. Ikan gurami tidak mempunyai kandungan kolesterol banyak, sangat tinggi vitamin dan protein serta mempunyai kandungan omega 3 amat banyak. Ikan gurami tak mungkin merusak program diet. Pendamping Nasi Yang Sempurna Jika sedang mengalami kemalasan saat makan siang dengan lauk sama setiap hari, bisa coba untuk mulai memakai ikan gurami untuk kumpulan menu pendamping nasi yang nikmat. Ikan gurami ialah sumber protein hewani yang memiliki banyak kelebihan, di antaranya ialah: kaya akan vitamin, protein, mineral dan berkalori rendah. Ikan gurami amat bagus bagi yang hendak menjaga metabolisme tubuh selain kita peroleh dari makan sayur-sayuran. Banyaknya gizi pada gurami juga cukup menarik bagi manusia, seperti asam amino esensial maupun non esensial. Disamping itu, gurami juga memiliki daya serap relatif tinggi yakni 90-100 persen. Lebih dari itu, ikan gurami pun gampang untuk diolah bisa digoreng, dikukus atau direbus lebih menyehatkan. Read the full article

Product Name: Parbolan Molecular Formula: C25H34O3 Molecular weight: 382.54 Assay: 97-101% Appearance: pale yellow or yellow crystalline powder Standard: Enterprise Standard Description Parbola is the most recognized brand name for trenbol hy, a slow-acting injectable ester of the potent anabolic steroid . This represents the first and only hormone to ever exist in human grade form. Parabola was prescribed for many years in cases of malnutrition, which will make a lot of sense as we dive into the compound. It was also prescribed to treat osteoporosis in some cases, as well as in the treatment of cachexia. However, in 1997 Negma would pull Parabola from the market.It appears most commonly as , which is a much faster-acting form of the drug . Applications It  has a goods name, Parabola.

finished Pale Cachexia and i am NOT ok

[teachingrounds]

You will never diagnose a child with cancer if it is not on your differential. Here are "red flag" symptoms to be aware of: •Continued, unexplained weight loss or loss of appetite (malignancies often increase metabolism well before they cause cachexia) •Headaches with vomiting in the morning (symptom of increased intracranial pressure) •Increased swelling or persistent pain in bones or joints, sometimes accompanied by limping, inability to bear weight or refusal to walk, or pathologic fractures •Lump or mass in abdomen, neck, or elsewhere (lymphadenopathy, Wilm's tumor, neuroblastoma) •Development of a whitish appearance in the pupil of the eye, bulging of the eye, dark circles, droopy eyelids or sudden changes in vision (retinoblastoma) •Loss of milestones (developmental regression) or abnormally increasing head circumference (macrocephaly) •Recurrent fevers not due to infections (falls under "B-cell symptoms") •Excessive bruising or bleeding (often sudden) (due to thrombocytopenia from bone marrow crowding) •Noticeable paleness (due to anemia from bone marrow crowding) Kathleen A Neville and Philip Steuber, "Clinical assessment of the child with suspected cancer," UpToDate (10 July 2018), https://www.uptodate.com/contents/clinical-assessment-of-the-child-with-suspected-cancer #TeachingRounds, #FOAMed, #oncology, #H&P, #PE, #physicalexam, #labresults, #pediatrics, #peds

cancer symptoms dogs

Cancer is one of the leading causes of death in domestic dogs- specially older dogs- which is partially due to the fact that attendant animals are living longer with relentless a rise in nutrition and veterinary attention. How cancer changes a specific bird-dog depends upon the type of cancer and the biological make-up of the individual animal. Meaningful generalizations about the effects of cancer cannot be made. Ultimately, however, most untreated or untreatable malignancies will motive or move death .

Cancer symptoms in dogs

One of the more common signalings of cancer in dogs is the figure of a oaf or mass. Typically, the dog seems to me to find or be inconvenienced by the hunk. However, while it may or may not be malignant, any mass is abnormal and should be evaluated by a veterinarian. Other signals of cancer are nonspecific and chiefly are dependent upon the area of origin of the primary tumor, the presence of any metastatic lesions in areas other than the locate of countries of origin, and whether there has been any rupture or other acute repercussion from the disease. Depending on where the cancer is present, the signs can include :

Superficial or subcutaneous scalp lumps

Weakness

Lethargy

Fatigue

Lack of stomach( anorexia; inappetance )

Vomiting

Enlarged lymph nodes

Diarrhea

Weight loss

Pale mucous layers

Lameness, swelling around leg joints, agony( osteosarcoma )

Fever

Collapse

Spontaneous bleed( hemangiosarcoma )

A common outcome of cancer is something called " cancer cachexia ," which refers to the severe compulsory weight loss, lethargy, anemia and wasting of mas tissues associated with underlying neoplastic canker .

Ren'Py: Redefining characters to make the writer's job a little easier. Community event on Saturday!

The February community event is coming up this Saturday @ 1800PST. We create a function to change what type of character is speaking instead of changing it in-line.

Community Event

The community event day is coming up quickly!

When: Saturday, February 13, 2021 @ 1800PST/2100EST

What: Pictionary with AG-themed prompts.

Where: Discord #events channel

DMR beta

The DMR beta is scheduled to begin at the end of the week, and we’ll be trying out an extended/rolling format, where the beta will be open for several weeks, and new routes will be added to the build as soon as they are available. If you want to join in, be sure to subscribe to the Throne tier on our Patreon!

Ren’Py character Overwriting

When we define speaking characters, we can add a variety of attributes, such as the color of their name, whether they have a side portrait, and whether their name shows up on screen, among other things.

To use these characters, we usually explicitly decide which one of them is speaking in-line.

The first time Jed speaks, his name “BARKEEP” shows up, and the character speaking it is ujpbc_name. The second time he speaks, we don’t want the name to show up, so we use a different character ujpbc. Adding this in-line can get very tedious quickly, especially since at the time of writing, you aren’t usually sure about how the dialogue should look in-game. Conveniently, how dialogue should look is usually easily split into sections: it is not very common to switch often between various visual layouts since it can be distracting.

So instead of defining the character that is speaking each and every line, why don’t we define them at the start of the section?

This of course doesn’t catch every case (we still have to go in and specify when to us jpbc_name for instance), but it makes it a lot faster than doing a find/replace to change every in-line character once we have determined which character should be speaking in a particular section. It allows a writer to focus on writing, without having to spend some time deciding which character to use (or even knowing anything about the programming/design/implementation side of things).
