Title: Sense of Taste
Presenter: Dr. Faiza, Assistant Professor of Physiology
Qualifications:
MBBS (Best Graduate, AIMC Lahore)
FCPS Physiology
ICMT, CHPE, DHPE (STMU)
MPH (GC University, Faisalabad)
MBA (Virtual University of Pakistan)
Learning Objectives:
Describe the structure and function of taste buds.
Describe the relationship between the taste threshold and taste index of common substances.
Explain the chemical basis and signal transduction of taste perception for each type of primary taste sensation.
Recognize different abnormalities of taste perception and their causes.
Key Topics:
Significance of Taste Sensation:
Differentiation between pleasant and harmful food
Influence on behavior
Selection of food based on metabolic needs
Receptors of Taste:
Taste buds on the tongue
Influence of sense of smell, texture of food, and pain stimulation (e.g., by pepper)
Primary and Secondary Taste Sensations:
Primary taste sensations: Sweet, Sour, Salty, Bitter, Umami
Chemical basis and signal transduction mechanisms for each taste
Taste Threshold and Index:
Taste threshold values for Sweet (sucrose), Salty (NaCl), Sour (HCl), and Bitter (Quinine)
Taste index relationship: Inversely proportional to taste threshold
Taste Blindness:
Inability to taste certain substances, particularly thiourea compounds
Example: Phenylthiocarbamide
Structure and Function of Taste Buds:
Composition: Epithelial cells, Sustentacular/Supporting cells, Taste cells, Basal cells
Features: Taste pores, Taste hairs/microvilli, and Taste nerve fibers
Location of Taste Buds:
Found in papillae of the tongue (Fungiform, Circumvallate, Foliate)
Also present on the palate, tonsillar pillars, epiglottis, and proximal esophagus
Mechanism of Taste Stimulation:
Interaction of taste substances with receptors on microvilli
Signal transduction pathways for Umami, Sweet, Bitter, Sour, and Salty tastes
Taste Sensitivity and Adaptation:
Decrease in sensitivity with age
Rapid adaptation of taste sensation
Role of Saliva in Taste:
Dissolution of tastants to reach receptors
Washing away the stimulus
Taste Preferences and Aversions:
Mechanisms behind taste preference and aversion
Influence of receptors and neural pathways
Impact of Sensory Nerve Damage:
Degeneration of taste buds if the sensory nerve fiber is cut
Abnormalities of Taste Detection:
Conditions: Ageusia, Hypogeusia, Dysgeusia (parageusia)
Causes: Nerve damage, neurological disorders, infections, poor oral hygiene, adverse drug effects, deficiencies, aging, tobacco use, altered neurotransmitter levels
Neurotransmitters and Taste Threshold:
Effects of serotonin (5-HT) and norepinephrine (NE) on taste sensitivity
Supertasters:
25% of the population with heightened sensitivity to taste, especially bitterness
Increased number of fungiform papillae

Recomendações da OMS sobre cuidados maternos e neonatais para uma experiência pós-natal positiva.
Em consonância com os ODS – Objetivos do Desenvolvimento Sustentável e a Estratégia Global para a Saúde das Mulheres, Crianças e Adolescentes, e aplicando uma abordagem baseada nos direitos humanos, os esforços de cuidados pós-natais devem expandir-se para além da cobertura e da simples sobrevivência, de modo a incluir cuidados de qualidade.
Estas diretrizes visam melhorar a qualidade dos cuidados pós-natais essenciais e de rotina prestados às mulheres e aos recém-nascidos, com o objetivo final de melhorar a saúde e o bem-estar materno e neonatal.
Uma “experiência pós-natal positiva” é um resultado importante para todas as mulheres que dão à luz e para os seus recém-nascidos, estabelecendo as bases para a melhoria da saúde e do bem-estar a curto e longo prazo. Uma experiência pós-natal positiva é definida como aquela em que as mulheres, pessoas que gestam, os recém-nascidos, os casais, os pais, os cuidadores e as famílias recebem informação consistente, garantia e apoio de profissionais de saúde motivados; e onde um sistema de saúde flexível e com recursos reconheça as necessidades das mulheres e dos bebês e respeite o seu contexto cultural.
Estas diretrizes consolidadas apresentam algumas recomendações novas e já bem fundamentadas sobre cuidados pós-natais de rotina para mulheres e neonatos que recebem cuidados no pós-parto em unidades de saúde ou na comunidade, independentemente dos recursos disponíveis.
É fornecido um conjunto abrangente de recomendações para cuidados durante o período puerperal, com ênfase nos cuidados essenciais que todas as mulheres e recém-nascidos devem receber, e com a devida atenção à qualidade dos cuidados; isto é, a entrega e a experiência do cuidado recebido. Estas diretrizes atualizam e ampliam as recomendações da OMS de 2014 sobre cuidados pós-natais da mãe e do recém-nascido e complementam as atuais diretrizes da OMS sobre a gestão de complicações pós-natais.
O estabelecimento da amamentação e o manejo das principais intercorrências é contemplada.
Recomendamos muito.
Vamos discutir essas recomendações no nosso curso de pós-graduação em Aleitamento no Instituto Ciclos.

Acute scrotum is a general term referring to an emergency condition affecting the contents or the wall of the scrotum.
There are a number of conditions that present acutely, predominantly with pain and/or swelling
A careful and detailed history and examination, and in some cases, investigations allow differentiation between these diagnoses. A prompt diagnosis is essential as the patient may require urgent surgical intervention
Testicular torsion refers to twisting of the spermatic cord, causing ischaemia of the testicle.
Testicular torsion results from inadequate fixation of the testis to the tunica vaginalis producing ischemia from reduced arterial inflow and venous outflow obstruction.
The prevalence of testicular torsion in adult patients hospitalized with acute scrotal pain is approximately 25 to 50 percent

It is a common cause of acute abdominal pain .
Grouped into Mild, Moderate, Severe
Mild: No systemic complications , or organ involvement
Moderate; associated systemic complications or transient organ failure, resolves in 48 hours .
Severe: resolves in greater than 48 hours.
6. Theory
Pancreas is located retroperitoneally in the epigastric region.
Pancreas plays both endocrine and exocrine role;
Exocrine role: Acinar cells produce digestive enzymes that help digest food
The pancreas protects itself by producing enzymes in their inactive form
These enzymes are called zymogens/tripsinogen and are kept in zymogen granules.
Usually, zymogens are activated by Proteases.
7. Etiology
Alcohol misuse
Gallstone migration
Middle aged women
Young to middle aged men
Hypertriglycerides
Use of causative drugs
Trauma
Hypercalcemia
Mumps
Family history of pancreatitis
Autoimmune Conditions
Pancreatic Cancer
8. History and Examination
Mid-Epigastric Pain or Left upper quadrant
pain radiating to the back
Nausea and Vomiting
Signs of hypovolemia ( decreased skin turgor,
hypotension, oliguria)
Signs of pleural effusion 9especially due to
pulmonary dysfunction)
Anorexia/ Lack of appetite
ABDOMINAL EXAM: Tender abdomen with
voluntary guarding
Signs of SIRS: Tachypnoea, tachycardia,
temperature spikes
Jaundice
Cullen’s/Grey turner sign
9.
10. Investigations
SERUM TRYPSIN: Most accurate but not routinely available
LIPASE
AMYLASE
ROUTINE BLOODS; FBC, U and E, LFT, CRP
Calcium: Hypercalcemia and Hypocalcemia
Serum Triglycerides ( if not gallstone or alcohol ) consider if >11.3 mmol
IMAGING; Contrast Enhanced CT Abdo ( not necessary for diagnosis)
11. Bedside Index of Severity in Acute Pancreatitis
(BISAP) Score
BUN > 8.9mmol/L (1 point)
Abnormal mental status with a GCS of <15 (1 point)
Evidence of SIRS (1 point )
Patient age > 60 years old ( 1 point)
Imaging Study reveals pleural effusion ( 1 point )
0 to 2 points: Lower Mortality
3 to 5 points: Higher Mortality
13. Treatment
ABC of Resuscitation
FLUID RESUSCITATION
Pain control
Antiemetic
Alcohol related: Replace Thiamine and other vitamins
Antibiotics if infection is implicated
Early nutritional support, parenteral if neccessary
15. Summary
In Summary, Acute pancreatitis is a common presentation in
the ED, and is one that should not be missed.
It requires a high index of suspicion with alcohol and
gallstones being the most common causes .
With regards to investigations; Serum Lipase/Amylase is the
key investigation and tends to be 3x the higher normal
Fluid resuscitation is important, as well as pain control.
16. Scenario three
A 60-year-old man comes to the emergency complaining of severe epigastric abdominal pain that
radiates to the back. Pain improves when he leans forward. It is worse when he breathes in deeply.
He also complains of nausea, vomiting and loss of appetite. He smokes 10 cigarettes and drinks 14
units of alcohol per day.
On examination, he has tachycardia, tachypnoea and low blood pressure. There are decreased
breath sounds over the base of his left lung.
His routine Bloods showed: BUN 9.9mmol, WBC; 14,000, CRP: 117, Neut: 11,000, adjusted calcium:
2.0
What is his BISAP score ?
What extra tests would you request?
What management would you recommend ?
