Could you elaborate more please? (:
One option that she has is to give into the pressure, but then she may be faced with addiction and getting in trouble.
Second option is to leave, but it may cause social problems with her friends, they may get mad at her, but at least she will be safe.
third option she has is to tell on them, but again her friends may get mad at her, but it is more likely to keep her friends safe as well as herself.
Answer:
Multiple sclerosis (MS) is the most common demyelinating and an autoimmune disease of the central nervous system characterized by immune-mediated myelin and axonal damage, and chronic axonal loss attributable to the absence of myelin sheaths. T cell subsets (Th1, Th2, Th17, CD8+, NKT, CD4+CD25+ T regulatory cells) and B cells are involved in this disorder, thus new MS therapies seek damage prevention by resetting multiple components of the immune system. The currently approved therapies are immunoregulatory and reduce the number and rate of lesion formation but are only partially effective. This review summarizes current understanding of the processes at issue: myelination, demyelination and remyelination—with emphasis upon myelin composition/architecture and oligodendrocyte maturation and differentiation. The translational options target oligodendrocyte protection and myelin repair in animal models and assess their relevance in human. Remyelination may be enhanced by signals that promote myelin formation and repair. The crucial question of why remyelination fails is approached is several ways by examining the role in remyelination of available MS medications and avenues being actively pursued to promote remyelination including: (i) cytokine-based immune-intervention (targeting calpain inhibition), (ii) antigen-based immunomodulation (targeting glycolipid-reactive iNKT cells and sphingoid mediated inflammation) and (iii) recombinant monoclonal antibodies-induced remyelination.Keywords: calpain, central nervous system, demyelination, fingolimod, glycolipids, lipids, multiple sclerosis, myelin, myelination, NKT cells, oligodendrocytes, remyelination, T cells
Explanation:
He actually could be having a stroke.
He could have Dementia or Alzheimer’s disease.
He could have a concussion.
He could have brain damage from substance abuse or smoking.
Treatment for memory loss depends on the cause. In many cases, it may be reversible with treatment.
For example, memory loss from medications may resolve with a change in medication.
Nutritional supplements can be useful against memory loss caused by a nutritional deficiency. And treating depression may be helpful for memory when depression is a factor.
In some cases -- such as following a stroke -- therapy may help people remember how to do certain tasks such as walking or tying shoes.
In others, memory may improve over time.
Treatments may also be specific to conditions related to memory loss.
For example, drugs are available to treat memory problems related to Alzheimer's disease, and drugs to help lower blood pressure can help reduce risk of more brain damage from dementia related to high blood pressure.
Hope this helped!
