This document summarizes two important health burdens - diabetes and hypertension. It notes that the number of Indians affected by diabetes has risen sharply from 40 million in 2007 to 63 million in 2012 and is projected to reach 101 million by 2030. Hypertension affects over 140 million people in India currently and this is expected to increase to 214 million by 2030. The document reviews risk factors, diagnostic criteria, potential complications, and recommendations for management of both conditions, including lifestyle changes like following a DASH diet low in salt and high in fruits and vegetables.

This document summarizes a study of the phase diagram of colloids immersed in a binary liquid mixture near the mixture's consolute point. The study uses the random phase approximation with hard spheres as a reference system to model the interactions. It finds that the phase diagram is governed by three parameters: the colloid packing fraction, the temperature shift from the consolute point, and the attraction energy between colloids. Key results include determining the critical point coordinates analytically, finding that the spinodal curve is universal, and deriving parametric equations for the coexistence curve to obtain the complete phase diagram.
This document summarizes a study analyzing the lateral phase separation between phospholipids and adhesion macromolecules on two adhering membranes. The key findings are:
1) Adhesion macromolecules are modeled as long, flexible polymer chains anchored by their ends to anchors on the inner monolayers of two adjacent plasma membranes.
2) A field theory is developed to derive an expression for the mixing free energy of the phospholipid-anchor mixture on the membranes.
3) The phase diagram in the composition-temperature plane is extracted from the free energy expression. The phase separation is influenced by polymer chain length, solvent quality, and undulations between the coupled membranes.

This document describes a study using integral equation theory and Monte Carlo simulation to determine the structure and thermodynamics of a colloidal solution where particles interact via Yukawa or Sogami potentials. The authors use the hybridized mean spherical approximation within the integral equation theory to calculate properties like the pair correlation function, structure factor, internal energy and pressure. They find good quantitative agreement between results from integral equation theory using a Sogami potential and results from Monte Carlo simulation. The theoretical results are also compared to experimental data and show agreement when using a Sogami potential.
This document summarizes a study examining the Casimir force between two parallel plates confining a biomembrane. The researchers first develop a field theory model to describe the interactions of the confined biomembrane, which depends on the bending rigidity of the membrane and an elastic constant related to the plate separation. They then use this model to calculate the static and dynamic Casimir forces. They find that the static force decays with plate separation as D-3 and is significant for membranes with low bending rigidity. The dynamic force and membrane roughness are also calculated, finding both increase as power laws of time until equilibrium is reached. Hydrodynamic interactions are shown to increase the growth rates.
This document discusses computer simulations of the structure and thermodynamics of colloidal solutions interacting through Yukawa or Lu-Marlow potentials. It presents:
1) A new attractive potential proposed by Lu and Marlow that takes into account particle size and is proportional to the inverse sixth power of distance for large separations.
2) Use of this potential and a repulsive electrostatic potential in a variational method to calculate theoretical structure factors, finding good agreement with experimental data.
3) Choice of hard spheres as a reference system and use of the Gibbs-Bogoliubov inequality to obtain an upper bound for the free energy of the colloidal system.

This document summarizes a study on the phase separation between phospholipids and grafted polymer chains on a biomembrane. The researchers developed a theoretical model to determine the mixing free energy expression and extract the phase diagram in the composition-temperature plane. They found that the condensation of polymer chains is very sensitive to solvent quality and the polydispersity of the anchored chains. The structure factor was also computed, showing behavior at small distances and defining the correlation length. Future work could extend this study to charged systems and membranes with dynamics and multiple layers.

- The document discusses the confinement of polymeric fractals between two parallel fluid membranes. It presents the theoretical framework, including Flory theory and Helfrich theory, for describing the interaction and conformations of polymers and membranes.
- The key results are expressions showing that a polymer can only be confined when its size is much larger than the membrane separation, and that the polymer conformation depends critically on temperature as the membranes approach their unbinding transition.
- The polymer parallel extension is found to combine aspects of fractal polymer scaling and membrane critical behavior, becoming smaller as the membranes separate at the phase transition.

This document summarizes a study on the structure and thermodynamics of colloid solutions interacting through Yukawa or Lu-Marlow potentials. The researchers used an expression described by Lu and Marlow that accounts for finite particle size. They calculated structure factors using a variational method based on the Gibbs-Bogoliubov inequality. The theoretical structure factors obtained were found to be in good agreement with experimental data, justifying the interest in the Lu-Marlow potential. They also used a reference system of hard spheres and the variational method to estimate thermodynamic properties of the colloid solutions.
This document discusses the introduction and mechanisms of action of steroidal hormones. It describes the key determinants that influence hormone concentration at the target cell, including synthesis/secretion rates, proximity to target, plasma protein binding, and clearance rates. It also outlines the determinants of the target cell response, such as receptor numbers, metabolism within the cell, and regulatory factors. The document explains that hormone receptors contain domains for both recognition and coupling, and identifies receptors as protein molecules. It provides examples of hormones that bind intracellular vs cell surface receptors and the associated second messenger systems. Finally, it lists the DNA sequences of several hormone response elements.
