Successful Application of CranioSacral Therapy in a Case of Acute Ptosis Following a Covid-19 Infection.
This case study offers a unique insight on the effectiveness of CranioSacral therapy (CST) in a 49 year old woman experiencing an acute stage of a viral infection (Covid-19) causing a partial left Oculomotor nerve palsy. A CST glial/Cerebrospinal Fluid (CSF) specific protocol was utilised over 2 consecutive days. The patient recovered fully after 5 days. The results of this particular case can open up the possibility of utilising CST more widely in treating cranial nerve palsies following a viral infection to support the healing process and the functional restoration
The Impact of Fish Intake (Primarily the Omega-3 Fatty Acid Concentration) on Cognitive Decline: A Systematic Review
The purpose of this systematic review is to explore the effect of fish intake on cognitive decline. Previous studies on fish intake and cognitive decline have produced both supportive results and results that yield ineffectiveness. This review focuses primarily on omega 3 concentration from fish intake and its influence on mild cognitive impairment. Using several search engines, studies were selected by searching “fish intake and cognitive decline”. Inclusion criteria consisted of individuals diagnosed with MCI, intervention of fish intake, and omega 3 fatty acid concentration and cognitive function exams conducted at baseline and throughout the study. Nine out of the ten studies within this review show that an increase of fish intake results in an increase in omega-3 fatty acid concentration within red blood cells. Due to this increase in concentration, there is an improvement in various mental state exams. Although these studies show positive results, not all are statistically significant or analytically persuasive. More research needs to be done on fish intake and cognitive decline to hopefully wage the gape in knowledge for the future of neurodegenerative diseases
