AIDS stands for Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome, which is caused by the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) that infects helper T cells and the central nervous system. HIV weakens the immune system, making one susceptible to pathogens and potentially life-threatening secondary infections, cancers, weight loss, and nervous system dysfunction. Ways to prevent the spread of AIDS include practicing abstinence or safe sex, using clean needles, screening blood for transfusion, and educating the public.

Malaria
Malaria is a parasitic disease transmitted through mosquito bites. It causes high fevers, shaking chills, and flu-like symptoms. The parasites travel to the liver and infect red blood cells, causing symptoms like anemia. Diagnosis involves examining blood smears under a microscope to detect the parasites. Treatment depends on factors like location and severity, but most cases only require medication prescribed by a doctor. Prevention involves eliminating mosquito breeding sites and using nets, repellents, clothing coverage and anti-malarial drugs.
Viral infections
Viral infections can be caused by viruses like rotavirus that kill or alter cells' normal functions and sometimes lead to cancer. They have a wide range from common colds to more serious diseases like HIV and open the body to additional illnesses. Viral infections may cause fatigue, fevers, respiratory symptoms and affect the immune system, bloodstream or respiratory tract. Diagnosis involves considering a patient's symptoms and potentially tests of blood or urine while treatment depends on the virus, patient's condition, age and area affected along with possible antiviral medication.
Chickenpox
The document discusses chicken pox, a highly contagious viral infection caused by the varicella zoster virus. It is characterized by an itchy rash of small blisters appearing in crops all over the skin. The virus is spread through direct contact with the fluid from skin eruptions or through the air from an infected person's nose or throat. While chicken pox is usually mild and self-limiting in children, it can be more serious in adults and those with weakened immune systems. Treatment focuses on reducing symptoms, and a vaccine is available to prevent infection.
Hiv
HIV is a retrovirus that causes AIDS by destroying CD4+ T cells and weakening the immune system. It is transmitted via blood, semen, vaginal fluids and breast milk. As of 2010, approximately 34 million people globally were infected with HIV, with sub-Saharan Africa being the worst affected region. There is no cure for HIV/AIDS but treatment with antiretroviral drugs can control the virus and prolong life.
Aids school plan i-1
The document summarizes how HIV and AIDS work:
HIV infects and gradually destroys the immune system's CD4 cells. After some years of being dormant, this weakens the body and allows opportunistic infections to take hold, characterizing AIDS. The stages of infection are: initial infection, dormancy, AIDS diagnosis when the immune system is too weak to fight diseases, and ultimately death. HIV can be passed on through contact with infected bodily fluids but is not spread accidentally; sensible behavior can avoid transmission.
Yaws
Yaws is a chronic, infectious disease caused by Treponema pertenue bacteria, which is endemic in tropical areas. It primarily affects children and adolescents living in impoverished communities with poor hygiene. The disease presents with skin lesions and can cause long-term bone and skin deformities if left untreated. Mass treatment programs using antibiotics like azithromycin or penicillin have successfully controlled yaws outbreaks and led to India being certified as yaws-free in 2011 after intensive surveillance and treatment efforts.
Adult HIV: HIV Infection
1. HIV is a retrovirus that causes AIDS by destroying CD4 cells and weakening the immune system. It is most commonly spread through unprotected sexual intercourse in South Africa.
2. Most people infected with HIV are asymptomatic for many years before developing AIDS, which makes it easy to spread without knowing. Screening tests like ELISA and rapid tests detect antibodies to HIV.
3. While treatment can suppress HIV and prevent AIDS, there is currently no cure. The epidemic has had a devastating social and economic impact in South Africa by reducing life expectancy and leaving many orphaned children.
Hiv
This document discusses the origin, transmission, and effects of HIV/AIDS. It begins by explaining that HIV originated from transmission of SIV from primates to humans in Africa in the early 20th century. It then describes HIV as a virus that weakens the immune system, allowing opportunistic infections to threaten life. The document outlines HIV's life cycle and how transmission occurs through sexual contact, blood transfusions, and from mother to child. It explains that infection progresses from acute infection with flu-like symptoms, to a chronic stage with no symptoms, and finally AIDS when the immune system is too weak to fight off infections. Prevention methods like abstinence and clean needle use are recommended to avoid transmission of the virus.

Prophet stood up
The Prophet saw a funeral procession pass by and stood up out of respect. His companions informed him that it was the funeral of a Jew. The Prophet responded that whenever a funeral is seen, one should stand up as a sign of respect.
Neither washed nor was a funeral prayer martyrs
The Prophet Muhammad collected the bodies of two martyrs from the Battle of Uhud who had died and wrapped them together in one cloth. He would ask which knew more of the Quran and bury that one first, saying he would bear witness for them on Judgment Day. The Prophet ordered them to be buried with their blood and without washing or funeral prayer in recognition of their martyrdom.

Viral vaccine & it’s effect awkum
Maurice Hilleman developed the measles vaccine which is estimated to prevent 1 million deaths every year. A vaccine contains an agent that resembles a disease-causing microorganism and stimulates the immune system to recognize it as a threat and destroy it. Viral vaccines are designed to treat viral diseases and can contain either live attenuated or inactivated viruses. Vaccines have historically been very effective at fighting and eradicating infectious diseases, though protection can sometimes fail if the immune system does not respond or responds too slowly. Vaccination given during childhood is generally safe, though fever, pain, and muscle aches can occasionally occur as mild side effects.
Hiv
HIV attacks the immune system, making it unable to fight infection. AIDS is the most serious stage of HIV that results from destruction of the immune system. Symptoms of HIV/AIDS are flu-like or mononucleosis-like. HIV/AIDS can be transmitted sexually or through blood transfusions and intravenous drug use. Prevention methods include safe sex practices and safe needle use. Treatment includes antiretroviral therapy to suppress HIV and prevent opportunistic infections.
AIDS PRESENTATION
The document discusses Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome (AIDS). It begins by defining AIDS as a set of symptoms and infections resulting from damage to the human immune system by the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). HIV is a retrovirus that targets CD4 T-cells and incorporates its genetic material into the host cell. The document then covers the epidemiology, risk factors, signs and symptoms, diagnosis, management and prevention of HIV/AIDS.
Acquired immunodeficiency syndrome(aids)
AIDS is caused by the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). Many people infected with HIV do not show symptoms for years, allowing them to infect others unknowingly. HIV weakens the immune system, leaving the body vulnerable to infections and diseases. The virus can be transmitted sexually, through blood exposure, or from mother to child during pregnancy, birth, or breastfeeding. While scientists have been unable to develop a vaccine, prevention focuses on avoiding risky behaviors like unprotected sex with multiple partners and sharing needles.
health Psychology HIV AIDs.pptx
HIV can be transmitted through bodily fluids and causes AIDS by attacking and destroying CD4 cells. This leaves the immune system vulnerable to infections and illnesses. While not all with HIV develop AIDS, earlier treatment leads to better outcomes. Stigma from HIV/AIDS causes social isolation, poverty, and mental health issues. Proper treatment with antiretroviral drugs can suppress the virus and prevent development of AIDS, but delayed treatment allows more harm to the immune system and higher transmission risk.
AIDS
1) AIDS results from damage to the immune system caused by HIV infection. HIV causes a gradual loss of CD4+ T-cells and immune function.
2) The most affected regions for HIV/AIDS are USA, South Africa, Eastern Africa, and India. The symptoms of AIDS are primarily infections caused by bacteria, viruses, fungi and parasites.
3) HIV can be diagnosed through an antibody test which detects antibodies to HIV, or a PCR test which detects HIV genetic material. Treatment involves taking antiretroviral drugs daily for life to suppress the virus.

Cell Therapy Expansion and Challenges in Autoimmune Disease
There is increasing confidence that cell therapies will soon play a role in the treatment of autoimmune disorders, but the extent of this impact remains to be seen. Early readouts on autologous CAR-Ts in lupus are encouraging, but manufacturing and cost limitations are likely to restrict access to highly refractory patients. Allogeneic CAR-Ts have the potential to broaden access to earlier lines of treatment due to their inherent cost benefits, however they will need to demonstrate comparable or improved efficacy to established modalities.
In addition to infrastructure and capacity constraints, CAR-Ts face a very different risk-benefit dynamic in autoimmune compared to oncology, highlighting the need for tolerable therapies with low adverse event risk. CAR-NK and Treg-based therapies are also being developed in certain autoimmune disorders and may demonstrate favorable safety profiles. Several novel non-cell therapies such as bispecific antibodies, nanobodies, and RNAi drugs, may also offer future alternative competitive solutions with variable value propositions.
Widespread adoption of cell therapies will not only require strong efficacy and safety data, but also adapted pricing and access strategies. At oncology-based price points, CAR-Ts are unlikely to achieve broad market access in autoimmune disorders, with eligible patient populations that are potentially orders of magnitude greater than the number of currently addressable cancer patients. Developers have made strides towards reducing cell therapy COGS while improving manufacturing efficiency, but payors will inevitably restrict access until more sustainable pricing is achieved.
Despite these headwinds, industry leaders and investors remain confident that cell therapies are poised to address significant unmet need in patients suffering from autoimmune disorders. However, the extent of this impact on the treatment landscape remains to be seen, as the industry rapidly approaches an inflection point.
