What do corticosteroids do to the brain?

Answer:

When the body becomes stressed, the pituitary gland at the base of the brain releases ACTH (adrenocorticotropic hormone) which stimulates the adrenal glands to produce cortisol. The extra cortisol allows the body to cope with stressful situations, such as infection, trauma, surgery, or emotional problems.

The use of corticosteroids is strongly associated to the development of psychiatric/neurological side effects. These effects are due to the wide expression of GR in the brain, and their long-term modulation can lead to functional and anatomical alterations, which might be responsible for the observed side-effects.

RSB [31]
I’m not sure what pro-life argument to add. Science suggests that fetuses don’t feel pain until the 6th month. They’re not aware that they’re alive. They have neurotransmitters or spinal fluids, their spine is barely developed until then, which is why most abortions aren’t done after that period. Roe vs Wade act is a human right. Other than that, the only excuses you could make for being pro-life is religion, but that isn’t fact so only use that in your writing if it’s a biased report.

goblinko [34]

Answer:

Increase

Explanation:

Vasopressin is ADH. ADH is secreted by the hypothalamus and regulates the body's osmolarity. Since Giardia causes a loss of sodium ions, the body's osmolarity is affected. To counteract this and maintain homeostasis, more vasopressin is secreted, thus telling the body to absorb more ions back in the kidneys.
