[ "Causes and Risk Factors of Meningioma. The causes of meningioma are not well understood. However, there are two known risk factors. Exposure to radiation; Neurofibromatosis type 2, a genetic disorder; Previous injury may also be a risk factor, but a recent study failed to confirm this. Meningiomas have been found in places where skull fractures have occurred.", "Causes of Meningioma. The causes of meningioma are not clear, though one possible culprit is hormonal fluctuations that may cause the tumors to grow (however, more research is needed on this hypothesis). It is also unclear whether whatever prompts these meninges cells to multiply out of control is inherited, related to a person’s environment or both." ]
what does msa mean in relation to paralegals
[ "About Paralegals Paralegals assist lawyers in the delivery of legal services.

what does magma's viscosity depend on?
[ "The viscosity of magma depends upon its silica content and its what? The viscosity is also dependent on temperature. Higher Temperature results in lower viscosities typically, i.e more runny.", "Viscosity is the resistance to flow (opposite of fluidity). Viscosity depends on primarily on the composition of the magma, and temperature. Higher SiO2 (silica) content magmas have higher viscosity than lower SiO2 content magmas (viscosity increases with increasing SiO2 concentration in the magma). Lower temperature magmas have higher viscosity than higher temperature magmas (viscosity decreases with increasing temperature of the magma)." ]

causes of hyperphosphatemia symptoms
[ "Other possible causes of hyperphosphatemia include: low parathyroid hormone levels (hypoparathyroidism) damage to cells; high vitamin D levels; diabetic ketoacidosis — high levels of acids called ketones in the blood of people with diabetes; injuries — including those that cause muscle damage; serious body-wide infections", "Hyperphosphatemia is a serum phosphate concentration > 4.5 mg/dL (> 1.46 mmol/L). Causes include chronic kidney disease, hypoparathyroidism, and metabolic or respiratory acidosis. Clinical features may be due to accompanying hypocalcemia and include tetany. Diagnosis is by serum phosphate measurement." ]
what does low factor of safety mean
[ "Factors of safety, is also known as safety factor, is a term describing the load carrying capacity of a system beyond the expected or actual loads. Essentially, the factor of safety is how much stronger the system is usually that needs to be for an intended load. Safety factors are often calculated using detailed analysis because comprehensive testing is impractical on many projects, such as bridges and buildings, but the structure's ability to carry load must be determined to a reasonable accur", "Which means if the equipment if design to has a high factor of safety, the cost to fabricate the equipment will increase and same to the weight too. But if the equipment is design with low cost and low weight, the factor of safety will be low too." ]
causes of heart blockage
[ "Heart block typically causes lightheadedness, fainting, and palpitations. Depending on the severity of the heart block, this can be dangerous. For example, a third-degree heart block can worsen pre-existing conditions, such as heart failure. It can cause loss of consciousness and even sudden cardiac arrest. There can also be chest pain.", "Following is a list of causes or underlying conditions (see also Misdiagnosis of underlying causes of Heart block) that could possibly cause Heart block includes: 1 Heart attack. 2 Coronary artery disease. 3 Sinus node disease. 4 Congenital heart defect. 5 Myocarditis. 6 Coronary thrombosis (see Heart symptoms) 7 Cardiomyopathy. 8 Heart valve disease." ]
what does lack in vitamin b cause
