This document provides an overview of common eye conditions and disorders organized by anatomical structure of the eye. Key points covered include:
- Dry eye, conjunctivitis, keratoconus, refractive errors, uveitis, color blindness, retinal detachment, diabetic retinopathy, age-related macular degeneration, glaucoma, cataracts, and floaters.
- Causes, symptoms, and treatment options are described for each condition.

Tuberculosis is an infection caused by the Mycobacterium tuberculosis bacteria, which most commonly affects the lungs but can infect other parts of the body. Symptoms include cough, sputum, blood, night sweats, chest pain, weight loss and fever. TB is a communicable disease spread through the air via sneezes or coughs. India has a high burden of TB cases, accounting for one fourth of global annual incidence. TB is diagnosed through tests like sputum smear, blood tests, chest x-rays and the Mantoux test. Prevention methods include avoiding close contact with active TB patients, using face masks, vaccination with BCG, and following treatment instructions.
This document summarizes genetic ophthalmic disorders including color blindness and glaucoma. It describes the normal eye structure and defines color blindness as a color vision deficiency making it difficult to perceive color differences. It discusses the types of color blindness including red-green, blue cone monochromacy, and blue-yellow deficiencies. Glaucoma is defined as abnormally high fluid pressure in the eye, most commonly caused by blockage of the drainage channel or pressure from the iris on the lens. The two main types are open-angle and angle-closure glaucoma. Causes, signs, diagnosis, and treatments are described for both conditions.
This document discusses patient medication adherence. It defines adherence as taking medication as recommended by a healthcare provider. Non-adherence can be unintentional due to complex regimens or intentional if a patient stops medication. The World Health Organization identified 5 dimensions that influence adherence: social/economic factors, healthcare system factors, condition-related factors, therapy-related factors, and patient-related factors. Methods for measuring adherence include medication monitors, patient self-reports, pill counts, pharmacy records, and the Morisky Medication Adherence Scale. Pharmacists can improve adherence through education, simplifying regimens, identifying barriers, and reminding patients.

NAVIGATING THE HORIZONS OF TIME LAPSE EMBRYO MONITORING.pdfRahul Sen
Time-lapse embryo monitoring is an advanced imaging technique used in IVF to continuously observe embryo development. It captures high-resolution images at regular intervals, allowing embryologists to select the most viable embryos for transfer based on detailed growth patterns. This technology enhances embryo selection, potentially increasing pregnancy success rates.

Breast cancer: Post menopausal endocrine therapyDr. Sumit KUMAR
Breast cancer in postmenopausal women with hormone receptor-positive (HR+) status is a common and complex condition that necessitates a multifaceted approach to management. HR+ breast cancer means that the cancer cells grow in response to hormones such as estrogen and progesterone. This subtype is prevalent among postmenopausal women and typically exhibits a more indolent course compared to other forms of breast cancer, which allows for a variety of treatment options.
Diagnosis and Staging
The diagnosis of HR+ breast cancer begins with clinical evaluation, imaging, and biopsy. Imaging modalities such as mammography, ultrasound, and MRI help in assessing the extent of the disease. Histopathological examination and immunohistochemical staining of the biopsy sample confirm the diagnosis and hormone receptor status by identifying the presence of estrogen receptors (ER) and progesterone receptors (PR) on the tumor cells.
Staging involves determining the size of the tumor (T), the involvement of regional lymph nodes (N), and the presence of distant metastasis (M). The American Joint Committee on Cancer (AJCC) staging system is commonly used. Accurate staging is critical as it guides treatment decisions.
Treatment Options
Endocrine Therapy
Endocrine therapy is the cornerstone of treatment for HR+ breast cancer in postmenopausal women. The primary goal is to reduce the levels of estrogen or block its effects on cancer cells. Commonly used agents include:
Selective Estrogen Receptor Modulators (SERMs): Tamoxifen is a SERM that binds to estrogen receptors, blocking estrogen from stimulating breast cancer cells. It is effective but may have side effects such as increased risk of endometrial cancer and thromboembolic events.
Aromatase Inhibitors (AIs): These drugs, including anastrozole, letrozole, and exemestane, lower estrogen levels by inhibiting the aromatase enzyme, which converts androgens to estrogen in peripheral tissues. AIs are generally preferred in postmenopausal women due to their efficacy and safety profile compared to tamoxifen.
Selective Estrogen Receptor Downregulators (SERDs): Fulvestrant is a SERD that degrades estrogen receptors and is used in cases where resistance to other endocrine therapies develops.
Combination Therapies
Combining endocrine therapy with other treatments enhances efficacy. Examples include:
Endocrine Therapy with CDK4/6 Inhibitors: Palbociclib, ribociclib, and abemaciclib are CDK4/6 inhibitors that, when combined with endocrine therapy, significantly improve progression-free survival in advanced HR+ breast cancer.
Endocrine Therapy with mTOR Inhibitors: Everolimus, an mTOR inhibitor, can be added to endocrine therapy for patients who have developed resistance to aromatase inhibitors.
Chemotherapy
Chemotherapy is generally reserved for patients with high-risk features, such as large tumor size, high-grade histology, or extensive lymph node involvement. Regimens often include anthracyclines and taxanes.
