The pericardium is a fibroserous sac that encloses and protects the heart. It has two layers - a fibrous outer layer and a serous inner layer. The heart has four chambers - right and left atria which receive blood, and right and left ventricles which pump blood out. Each chamber has a specific structure and function in the circulation. The heart also has a conducting system that generates electrical signals to coordinate contractions and pumping of the heart.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.
Embracing GenAI - A Strategic ImperativePeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

2. PERICARDIUM
The pericardium is a fibroserous sac that encloses the heart and the roots of the great
vessels.
Restrict excessive movements of the heart as a whole and to serve as a lubricated
container in which the different parts of the heart can contract.
The pericardium lies within the middle mediastinum posterior to the body of the
sternum and the 2nd to the 6th costal cartilages and anterior to the 5th to the 8th
thoracic vertebrae
3.
4. Fibrous Pericardium
The fibrous pericardium is the strong fibrous part of the sac.
It is firmly attached below to the central tendon of the diaphragm.
It fuses with the outer coats of the great blood vessels passing through it —namely, the aorta,
the pulmonary trunk, the superior and inferior venae cavae, and the pulmonary veins.
The fibrous pericardium is attached in front to the sternum by the sternopericardial ligaments.
5.
6.
7. Serous Pericardium
The serous pericardium lines the fibrous pericardium and coats the heart. It is divided into
parietal and visceral layers
The parietal layer lines the fibrous pericardium and is reflected around the roots of the great
vessels to become continuous with the visceral layer of serous pericardium that closely covers
the heart
8.
9. The visceral layer is closely applied to the heart and is often called the epicardium.
The slitlike space between the parietal and visceral layers is referred to as the pericardial cavity
Normally, the cavity contains a small amount of tissue fluid (about 50 mL), the pericardial
fluid, which acts as a lubricant to facilitate movements of the heart.
10. Nerve Supply of the Pericardium
The fibrous pericardium and the parietal layer of the
serous pericardium are supplied by the phrenic
nerves.
The visceral layer of the serous pericardium is
innervated by branches of the sympathetic trunks and
the vagus nerves.
12. Surfaces of the Heart
The heart has three surfaces:
1. Sternocostal (anterior),
2. Diaphragmatic (inferior), and
3. Base (posterior).
4. Apex
13.
14. The sternocostal surface is formed mainly by the right atrium and the right ventricle, which are
separated from each other by the vertical atrioventricular groove
The right border is formed by the right atrium; the left border, by the left ventricle and part of
the left auricle.
The right ventricle is separated from the left ventricle by the anterior interventricular groove.
15.
16. The diaphragmatic surface of the heart is formed mainly by the right and left ventricles
separated by the posterior interventricular groove.
The inferior surface of the right atrium, into which the inferior vena cava opens, also forms part
of this surface.
17.
18. The base of the heart, or the posterior surface, is formed mainly by the left atrium, into which
open the four pulmonary veins .
The base of the heart lies opposite the apex.
19.
20. The apex of the heart, formed by the left ventricle, is directed downward, forward, and to the
left.
It lies at the level of the fifth left intercostal space, 3.5 in. (9 cm) from the midline.
In the region of the apex, the apex beat can usually be seen and palpated in the living patient.
21. Borders of the Heart
The right border is formed by the right atrium; the left border, by the left auricle; and below, by
the left ventricle.
The lower border is formed mainly by the right ventricle but also by the right atrium; the apex
is formed by the left ventricle.
These borders are important to recognize when examining a radiograph of the heart.
22.
23. Chambers of the Heart
The heart is divided by vertical septa into four chambers:
The right and left atria and the right and left ventricles.
The right atrium lies anterior to the left atrium, and the right ventricle lies anterior to the left
ventricle.
The walls of the heart are composed of cardiac muscle, the myocardium; covered externally
with serous pericardium, the epicardium; and lined internally with a layer of endothelium, the
endocardium.
25. The right atrium consists of a main cavity and a small outpouching, the auricle.
On the outside of the heart at the junction between the right atrium and the right auricle is a
vertical groove, the sulcus terminalis (is an inconsistent depression of the myocardial surface of the
right atrium of the heart), which on the inside forms a ridge, the crista terminalis (terminal crest)
is a C-shaped ridge located in the endocardial aspect of the right atrium of the heart).
The part of the atrium in front of the ridges roughened or trabeculated by bundles of muscle
fibers, the musculi pectinati (increasing the power of contraction without increasing heart mass
substantially), which run from the crista terminalis to the auricle.
This anterior part is derived embryologically from the primitive atrium
26.
27.
28. Openings into the Right Atrium
The superior vena cava opens into the upper part of the right atrium; it has no valve.
The inferior vena cava opens into the lower part of the right atrium; it is guarded by a
rudimentary, nonfunctioning valve.
The coronary sinus, which drains most of the blood from the heart wall , opens into the right
atrium between the inferior vena cava and the atrioventricular orifice.
The right atrioventricular orifice lies anterior to the inferior vena caval opening and is guarded
by the tricuspid valve.
29.
30.
31.
32. Right Ventricle
The right ventricle is triangular in form, and extends from the right atrium
to near the apex of the heart.
Its anterosuperior surface is rounded and convex, and forms the larger part
of the sternocostal surface of the heart.
The right ventricle has two openings (orifices) at the base of its shape: one
is known as the right atrioventricular orifice or tricuspid orifice, which is
guarded by the tricuspid valve and serves as a communication barrier
between the right atrium and ventricle, while the other is known as the
pulmonary valve,
33. AV orfice
Pulmonary trunk
Infundibulum (a conical pouch formed from the upper and left angle of the right ventricle in the chordate heart,
from which the pulmonary trunk arises.)
Trabaculea Carneae( rounded or irregular muscular columns which project from the inner surface of the right
and left ventricle of the heart).
Papillary muscles ( are pillar-like muscles seen within the cavity of the ventricles, attached to their walls).
Chordae tendonea (are strong, fibrous connections between the valve leaflets and the papillary muscles)
Moderator band (is derived from the muscle band of the interventricular septum)
Tricuspid valve
Pulmonary valve
34.
35.
36.
37. Left Atrium
The greater part of the base or the posterior surface of the heart
Behind it lies the oblique sinus of the serous pericardium, and the fibrous pericardium
separates it from the esophagus
The four pulmonary veins, two from each lung, open through the posterior wall and have no
valves.
The left atrioventricular orifice is guarded by the mitral valve.
42. Atrial septum
Ventricular septum
Skeleton of the heart
Fibrous rings >> attach to orfices + memeranous part of the septum >>> provide support &
prevent incompetency >>> electrical discontinuity
43.
44. Conducting System of the Heart
SA node
AV node
AV bundle & branches
Purkinje fibers
Internodal conduction part
