Influenza
Abstract: Influenza is a highly contagious, acute upper respiratory tract disease caused by influenza virus, a member of the Orthomyxoviridae family. The viral particles have two surface antigens, haemagglutinin and sialidase (neuraminidase) that extensively decorate the surface of the virus and have been implicated[…][doi.org]

Strabismus
Strabismus can be treated in several ways which include the following: Eye glasses or patch: Children with strabismus are prescribed eye glasses if required.[symptoma.com]
Strabismus that sets in after eye alignment had been surgically corrected is called consecutive strabismus. Pseudostrabismus is the false appearance of strabismus.[en.wikipedia.org]
Strabismus surgery also can effectively align the eyes of adults with long-standing strabismus.[web.archive.org]

Exotropia is the easiest type of strabismus to treat with vision therapy, saving the patient from the risks and uncertainties associated with strabismus surgery and the liklihood[visiontherapy.ca]
Primary Progressive Multiple Sclerosis
OBJECTIVE: The aim of this work was to evaluate the preprogressive phase in subjects with radiologically isolated syndrome (RIS) who evolve to primary progressive multiple sclerosis (PPMS). METHODS: A multicenter RIS cohort was previously established. Demographic, clinical, and radiological characteristics of subjects[…][ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Subdural Hematoma
What is an Acute Subdural Hematoma? Definition An acute subdural hematoma (SDH) is a clot of blood that develops between the surface of the brain and the dura mater, the brain’s tough outer covering, usually due to stretching and tearing of veins on the brain’s surface. These veins rupture when a head injury[…][neurosurgery.ucla.edu]
