| ARTICLES RELATED TO Infectious diseases | | | |  Infectious diseases: Encyclopedia II - Demographics of Chad - ReligionsThe separation of religion from social structure in Chad represents a false dichotomy, for they are perceived as two sides of the same coin. Three religious traditions coexist in Chad-- classical African religions, Islam (see Islam in Chad), and Christianity. None is monolithic. The first tradition includes a variety of ancestor and/or place-oriented religions whose expression is highly specific. Islam, although characterized by an orthodox set of beliefs and observances, also is expressed in diverse ways. Christianity arrived in Chad much m ...

| | | | | Infectious diseases: Encyclopedia II - Chronic fatigue syndrome - Disease associations Some diseases show a considerable overlap with CFS, and it may be hard to distinguish between them. People with fibromyalgia have muscle pain and sleep disturbances. Those with multiple chemical sensitivities (MCS) are sensitive to chemicals and have sleep disturbances. Many veterans with Gulf War syndrome (GWS) have symptoms almost identical to CFS. Post-polio syndrome also bears a strong and remarkable resemblance to CFS. Some researchers maintain these disorders are all express ...

| | | | | | Infectious diseases: Encyclopedia II - Dracunculiasis - Symptoms Infected persons do not usually have symptoms until about 1 year after they become infected. A few days to hours before the worm emerges, the person may develop a fever, swelling and pain in the area. More than 90% of the worms appear on the legs and feet, but may occur anywhere on the body.
People in remote, rural communities who are most commonly affected by GWD do not have access to medical care. Almost invariably the skin lesions caused by the worm develop secondary bacterial infections, which exacerbate the pain, and extend the p ...

| | | | | Infectious diseases: Encyclopedia II - Dracunculiasis - Treatment Once the worm emerges from the wound, it can only be pulled out a few centimeters each day and wrapped around a small stick. Sometimes the worm can be pulled out completely within a few days, but this process usually takes weeks or months.
In the Middle East, it is customary to remove it by wrapping the protruding end of it around a stick and slowly turning the stick, twisting the worm around the stick. There is speculation that the serpent on the end of Moses's stick in the Bibli ...

| | | | | Infectious diseases: Encyclopedia II - Dracunculiasis - Affected countries According to the Carter Center, the incidence of GWD has dropped from an estimated 3.5 million cases worldwide in 1986 to only 16,026 reported cases in 2004.
Dracunculiasis now occurs only in 12 countries in sub-Saharan Africa. Transmission of the disease is most common in very remote rural villages and in areas visited by nomadic groups. In the 2nd century BC, the Greek writer Agatharchides described this affliction as being endemic amongst certain nomads in what is now Sudan and along the Red Sea (fragments preserved in Photius, Bibliotheca Cod. 250.59, 453b; ...

| | | | | Infectious diseases: Encyclopedia II - Chronic fatigue syndrome - Course
Chronic fatigue syndrome - Onset.
Some cases of CFS start gradually, but the majority start suddenly, often triggered by a 'flu-like viral or similar illness. People with CFS may improve or recover completely after a few or many years, or not at all. It is not known whether any CFS sufferer has truly recovered to pre-illness levels, or whether their symptoms have merely subsided enough for them to live a more normal life. Some sufferers have a remission for months or years ...

| | | | | Infectious diseases: Encyclopedia II - Chronic fatigue syndrome - Diagnosis At this time, there is no accepted conclusive test or series of tests of chronic fatigue syndrome. CFS is therefore largely an exclusionary diagnosis. There are several sets of diagnostic criteria for the syndrome, and if a doctor suspects CFS in a patient who meets these criteria, the doctor must eliminate all other potential causes of the patient's symptoms before giving a diagnosis of CFS. "Chronic fatigue" and similar symptoms can be caused by a wide variety of conditions which must be eliminated, although in some cases, treatment ...

| | | | | Infectious diseases: Encyclopedia II - Chronic fatigue syndrome - Epidemiology Due to problems with the definition of CFS, estimates of its prevalence vary widely. Studies in the United States have found between 75 and 420 cases of CFS for every 100,000 adults.
Far more women than men get CFS — between 60 and 85% of cases are women. Members of ethnic minorities and low income classes are slightly more likely to develop CFS. Though people of all ages can get CFS, and precise statistics are not available, the prevalence among children and adolescents appears to be lower than for adults. A ...

| | | | | Infectious diseases: Encyclopedia II - Chronic fatigue syndrome - Proposed etiologies and corresponding treatments The cause of CFS is unknown, although a large number of causes have been proposed, and several proposed causes have very vocal and partisan advocates.
As there is no one identifiable cause or falsifiable diagnosis for CFS, there is also no one treatment protocol or "magic bullet". Due to the multi-systemic nature of the illness, and others like it, an emerging branch of medical science called psychoneuroimmunology is exploring how all the various theories fit together.
The treatments that are proposed and often attempted for CF ...

| | | | | Infectious diseases: Encyclopedia II - Chronic fatigue syndrome - Social issues Chronic fatigue syndrome carries a considerable stigma, and has frequently been viewed as malingering, hypochondriacal behavior, "wanting attention" or "yuppie flu". As there is no objective test for the condition at this time, many argue that it is easy to "invent" CFS-like symptoms for financial, social or emotional benefits. CFS sufferers argue in turn that the perceived "benefits" are hardly as generous as some may believe, and that most CFS pa ...

| | | | | Infectious diseases: Encyclopedia II - Chronic fatigue syndrome - Symptoms According to the 1994 Fukuda definition there are eight main categories of symptoms in CFS:
Fatigue: People with CFS experience profound, overwhelming exhaustion, both mental and physical, which is worsened by exertion, and is not relieved (or not completely relieved) by rest. To receive a diagnosis of CFS, this fatigue state must last for six months.
Pain: Pain in CFS may include muscle pain, joint pain (without joint swelling or redness, and may be transitory), headaches (particularly of a new type, severity, or durat ...
