pharynx: Encyclopedia - Uvulopalatopharyngoplasty

Uvulopalatopharyngoplasty (also known by the abbreviation UPPP) is a procedure used to decrease or remove the sound of snoring in human beings during sleep. The procedure involves removing excess tissue in the throat, widening the airway. More air is then able to pass through the airway, and snoring is usually decreased. The procedure is used to "cure" snoring for the benefit of other people who are affected by the loud snoring of the patient. Loud snoring can cause a loss of sleep in those that hear i ...

pharynx: Encyclopedia - Antonine Plague

The Antonine Plague AD 165-180, also known as the Plague of Galen, was an ancient pandemic, either of smallpox or measles brought back to the Roman Empire by troops returning from campaigns in the Near East. The epidemic claimed the lives of two Roman emperors — Lucius Verus, who died in 169, and his co-regent who ruled until 180, Marcus Aurelius Antoninus, whose family name, Antoninus, was given to the epidemic. The disease broke out again nine years later, according to the Roman historian Dio Cassius, and caused up to 2,000 deaths a day at Rome, one quarter of those infec ...

pharynx: Encyclopedia - Effects of alcohol on the body

Alcohol (ethanol) is a potent drug with a range of side effects. The amount and circumstances of consumption play a large part in determining the extent of intoxication, e.g. consuming alcohol after a heavy meal is less likely to produce visible signs of intoxication than consumption on an empty stomach. Hydration also plays a role, especially in determining the extent of hangovers. Alcohol has a biphasic effect on the body, which is to say that its effects change over time. Initially, alcohol generally produces feelings of relaxation ...

pharynx: Encyclopedia - Cricothyroid muscle

The cricothyroid muscle attaches to the anterolateral aspect of the cricoid and the inferior cornu and lower lamina of the thyroid cartilage, tilting the thyroid forwards and lengthening the vocal cords. It's the only laryngeal muscle supplied by the external laryngeal nerve (rather than the recurrent laryngeal nerve). See also: Cricothyroid ligament facial expression: auricularis anterior - buccinator - corrugator supercilii - depressor anguli oris - depressor labii inferioris - depressor septi nasi - levator ang ...

pharynx: Encyclopedia - Airway

The airways are those parts of the respiratory system through which air flows, to get from the external environment to the alveoli. The airway begins at the mouth or nose, and accesses the trachea via the pharynx. The trachea branches into the left and right main bronchi at the carina, situated at the level of the second thoracic vertebra. The bronchi branch into large bronchioles, one for each lobe of the lung. Within the lobes, the bronchi further subdivide some 20 times, ending in clusters of alveoli. The epithelial s ...

pharynx: Encyclopedia - Branchial arch

The branchial arches, also known as pharyngeal arches, develop during the fourth and fifth week in utero as a series of mesodermal outpouchings on the left and right sides of the developing pharynx. These grow and join in the ventral midline. The first or mandibular arch, as the first to form, seperates the mouth pit or stomodeum from the pericardium. By differential growth the neck elongates and new arches form, so the pharynx has six arches ultimately. Pharyngeal or branchial pouches form on the endodermal side between ...

pharynx: Encyclopedia - Vocal tract

The vocal tract is that cavity in animals and humans, where sound that is produced at the sound source (larynx in mammals; syrinx in birds) is filtered. In birds it consists of the trachea, the syrinx, the oral cavity, the upper part of the esophagus, and the beak. In mammals it consists of the laryngeal cavity, the pharynx, the oral cavity, and the nasal cavity, and in some nonhuman mammals maybe also the airsacs.

The argument from poor design or dysteleological argument is an argument against the existence of God, specifically against the existence of a creator God (in the sense of a God that directly created all species of life).

pharynx: Encyclopedia - Choking

Choking is the obstruction of the flow of air into a person's lungs by a foreign object, commonly food. Choking can become a medical emergency, as choking prevents breathing and will thus starve the brain and other organs of oxygen. If the casualty can still cough effectively they will probably be able to cough up the offending object. The first aid at this point is to stand by and encourage coughing. If the casualty is completely silent and cannot cough or make noise, this indicates a entirely blocked airway. If they are still conscious they should be given up to five back blows. If that does not ...

Sweating (also called perspiration or sometimes transpiration) is the loss of a watery fluid, consisting mainly of sodium chloride and urea in solution, that is secreted by the sweat glands in the skin of mammals. Sweat also consist of the chemicals or odorants 2-methylphenol and 4-methyphenol. In humans, sweating is primarily a means of temperature regulation. Evaporation of sweat from the skin surface has a cooling effect due to the latent heat of evaporation of water. Hence, in hot weather, or when the individual's mu ...

Pharyngitis is a painful inflammation of the pharynx, and is colloquially referred to as a sore throat. Infection of the tonsils, tonsillitis (American English: tonsilitis) may occur simultaneously. The major cause is infection, of which 90% are viral, the remainder caused by bacterial infection and rarely oral thrush (fungal candidiasis e.g. in babies).
