Unilateral facial nerve palsy (FNP), with an incidence of around 25 per 100,000 population, is a common neurologic disorder mimicking a stroke. It often leads to emergency department visits. Bellâs palsy, also known as idiopathic facial paralysis, is the most common cause of unilateral facial paralysis, accounting for approximately 70% of these cases . Bilateral FNP is exceedingly rare, representing less than 2% of all the facial palsy cases, and has an incidence of 1 per 5,000,000 population [2, 3].
When gardening by the Moon, some people prefer to plant fruit trees (those that have seeds on the inside of the fruit) when the Moon is between first quarter and full, while others prefer to plant them between full and last quarter (to focus on root development to help the tree establish).
Generally, I avoid fertilizing until plants have grown their first set of âtrue leavesâ, which look different than the first pair that emerges. To start my seeds, I used the bio-dome from Park Seeds, a device that looks like a plastic greenhouse dome with a styrofoam tray. The tray holds little soil-less planting plugs called bio-sponges. Each plug has a hole in it for the seeds.
