Leukemia: Also known as Blood Cancer.
It is the malignant disease of the blood-forming cells especially the neoplastic proliferation of immature leukocytes.
It is a group of malignant disorders affecting the blood and blood-forming tissues of bone marrow, lymph system a spleen. Leukemia is a malignancy ( cancer ) of blood cells. In leukemia abnormal blood cells are produced in the bone marrow usually leukemia involves the production of abnormal WBC.
Cancer Causes, Types, Symptoms and Signs
Cancer: Everything you want to know!
Cancer is a disease of cell in which normal mechanisms of control of growth and proliferation are disturbed. Cancer is a group of cells that grows out of control, taking over the function of affected organs or it is a group of diseases characterized by uncontrolled cellular growth with local tissue invasion at systemic metastasis. It is a disease process that begins when abnormal cells are transformed by a genetic mutation of cellular DNA.

Skeletal System
Osteoporosis Causes, Symptoms, Risk factor, and Treatment
Abnormal rarefaction of bone which may be idiopathic or secondary to other conditions.
This disorder leads to the thinning of skeletal and decreases precipitation of lime salt.
Osteoporosis is defined as a systemic skeletal disease characterized by low bone mass and micro-architectural determination of bone tissue that leads to increase bone fragility and susceptibility to fracture or breakdown (hips, vertebrae, forearm).

Acute Kidney Injury [ Acute Renal Failure] or kidney failure
Acute kidney injury Previously called Acute Renal Failure is an abrupt loss of kidney functions that develops within 7 days.
It is characterized or manifested by decrease glomerular filtration rate, level of serum creatinine, and urea nitrogen rise and oliguria or anuria.
Its cause is numerous. Generally, it occurs because of damage to kidney tissue caused by decreased blood flow (ischemic kidney), low blood pressure or hypotension, exposure to substance harmful to the kidney, inflammatory process, or an obstruction of the urinary tract.
Chronic kidney disease ( chronic Renal failure ): Its causes, Pathophysiology, Sign And Symptoms, Medical and Nursing Management
Chronic kidney disease is a type of kidney disease in which there is a gradual loss of kidney function over a period of months or years. Chronic kidney disease is progressive irreversible destruction and dimension in renal function resulting in uremia and azotemia. It occurs from several days or months to years………..

Transportation through the cell membrane
Transportation of substances across the cell membrane is essential to the life of a cell. Various substances must have moved into cells because they help to support metabolic reactions. This process is classified into two process these are Passive mechanism and Active mechanism.
