Pathology is the scientific study of disease. It involves examining tissues and cells to understand changes caused by disease and injury. Key techniques used in pathology include autopsy, biopsy, histopathology, immunohistochemistry, molecular biology techniques, and newer digital methods. Pathology provides critical information to diagnose diseases, determine causes of death, and guide treatment. It is a foundation of clinical practice and research into the mechanisms of disease.

A genetic disorder is a disease caused by a different form of a gene called a variation,
or an alteration of a gene called a mutation. Many diseases have a genetic aspect. Some,
including many cancers, are caused by a mutation in a gene or group of genes in a person's
cells. These mutations can occur randomly or because of an environmental exposure such as
cigarette smoke.
Other genetic disorders are inherited. A mutated gene is passed down through a family
and each generation of children can inherit the gene that causes the disease. Still other
genetic disorders are due to problems with the number of packages of genes called
chromosomes. In Down syndrome, for example, there is an extra copy of chromosome 21.
If you know that you have a genetic problem in your family, you can have genetic testing to see if your baby could be affected.

Pathology is the exact study of these causes and Consequences of a disorder. Both prominent elements of pathology are anatomical studies of function and structure in levels which range from the entire organism into the subcellular level, and lab methods and methods to analyses physiological fluids. It bridges medicine and science and underpins every aspect of patient care, from diagnostic testing and therapy information to the usage of cutting-edge engineering as well as the prevention of the disorder.

Synthetic Fiber Construction in lab .pptxPavel ( NSTU)
Synthetic fiber production is a fascinating and complex field that blends chemistry, engineering, and environmental science. By understanding these aspects, students can gain a comprehensive view of synthetic fiber production, its impact on society and the environment, and the potential for future innovations. Synthetic fibers play a crucial role in modern society, impacting various aspects of daily life, industry, and the environment. ynthetic fibers are integral to modern life, offering a range of benefits from cost-effectiveness and versatility to innovative applications and performance characteristics. While they pose environmental challenges, ongoing research and development aim to create more sustainable and eco-friendly alternatives. Understanding the importance of synthetic fibers helps in appreciating their role in the economy, industry, and daily life, while also emphasizing the need for sustainable practices and innovation.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.
The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

What is scientific methods
---A process for experimentation that is used to
explore observations and answer questions. Scientists use
the scientific method to search for cause and effect
relationships in nature. In other words, they design an
experiment so that changes to one item cause something
else to vary in a predictable way.

Etiology or cause.
Genetic (e.g., inherited mutations and disease- associated
gene variants or polymorphisms)

Morphologic changes
The structural alterations in cells or tissues that are either
characteristic of a disease or diagnostic of an etiologic process.
Morphology remains at the heart of diagnostic pathology
Functional derangements and clinical
manifestations
The end results of genetic, biochemical, and structural
changes in cells and tissues are functional abnormalities, which
lead to the clinical manifestations(symptoms and signs) of
disease, as well as its progress(clinical course and outcome)

The pathologist is interested not only in recognition
of structural alteration, but also in their significance, i.e.,
the effects of these changes on cellular and tissue
function and ultimately the effect of these changes on
the patient. it is not a discipline isolated from the living
patient, but rather a basic approach to a better
understanding of disease and therefore a foundation of
sound clinical medicine.

Pathologists often have been accused, and
sometimes justly, of stressing the morphologic
changes in disease to the neglect of functional effects.
nevertheless, pathologic anatomy and histology
remain as an essential foundation of knowledge about
disease, without which basis, the concepts of many
disease are easily distorted.

History and development of pathology
Hippocrates of Kos.
460 – c. 370 BC
The first person to believe that diseases
were caused naturally, not because of
superstition and gods. He separated the
discipline of medicine from religion,
believing and arguing that disease was
not a punishment inflicted by the gods but
rather the product of environmental
factors, diet, and living habits.
However, Hippocrates did work with
many convictions that were based on what
is now known to be incorrect anatomy and
physiology, such as Humorism

Autopsy— postmortem examination (necropsy)
A highly specialized surgical
procedure that consists of a
thorough examination of a corpse
to determine the cause and
manner of death and to evaluate
any disease or injury that may be
present. It is usually performed by
a specialized medical doctor
called a pathologist.

Biopsy --- An examination of pathologic samples from
living body to set up diagnosis
The intervention of the microscope is not at all necessary to
decide whether such and such a tumor, which has been removed, is
or is not of cancerous nature.-- Dr. Velpeau, famous professor of clinical
surgery at the Univ.of Paris in 1853
In the 1870s, Carl Ruge of the
Univ. of Berlin, introduced the
surgical biopsy as an essential
diagnostic tool.

Pathology is best taught and learnt in two stages:
General pathology: A discussion of disease
fundamentals oriented horizontally (nature of
process). i.e. injury, repair, inflammation, neoplasia.
Systemic pathology: A more detailed discussion of
diseases oriented vertically. i.e. cardiovascular
diseases, respiratory diseases, alimentary diseases,
endocrine diseases, renal diseases, infectious
diseases.

LEARNING OF PATHOLOGY
There are two apparent difficulties that face the new
student of pathology: language and process.
(1) Language——Vocabulary of special terms: These need
to be learnt and understood not just because they are
the language of pathology; they are also a major part of
the language of clinical medicine.
Concepts to master: lots of concept is basic processes of
studying pathology.

(4) The problem-oriented and disease-oriented
approach.
In learning pathology, the disease-oriented approach
is more relevant because medical practitioners require
knowledge of disease (e.g. pneumonia, cancer, ischemic
heart disease) so that correct diagnoses can be made and
the most appropriate treatment given.
