Common commin child hood
This document provides an overview of common communicable diseases that affect children, including definitions, causative agents, modes of transmission, symptoms, and treatments. Some of the diseases discussed are chickenpox, diphtheria, measles, mumps, pertussis, polio, rubella, scarlet fever, tuberculosis, and scabies. The summary focuses on defining the key aspects of each disease such as transmission method, incubation period, symptoms, and complications. Nursing management strategies are also briefly outlined for some of the conditions.
COVID-19
The document provides recommendations for preventing the spread of COVID-19, including washing hands frequently, maintaining physical distance from others, wearing a mask when distance is not possible, avoiding touching the face, coughing or sneezing into the elbow or tissue, and staying home when feeling unwell. It notes that masks can help prevent transmission when combined with other measures, but may create a false sense of security and their effectiveness for non-medical masks is unclear.
Dina syphilis final
Syphilis is a highly contagious sexually transmitted disease caused by the bacteria Treponema pallidum. It spreads through sexual contact or from mother to child. While syphilis rates declined in the 1990s-2000s, new cases have doubled between 2005-2013. Syphilis progresses through primary, secondary, and latent stages and can cause serious complications if untreated, including stillbirths, infant death, and long term effects such as paralysis and blindness. However, syphilis can be easily diagnosed via blood test and treated with antibiotics to cure it. Untreated syphilis during pregnancy can severely harm the health of the baby.
Sexually Transmitted Infections
This document discusses sexually transmitted infections (STIs), including common STIs such as chlamydia, gonorrhea, herpes, HPV, hepatitis B, HIV/AIDS, pubic lice, syphilis, and trichomoniasis. It covers STI transmission, prevention through abstinence or condom use, potential symptoms, testing and treatment options, and long-term health effects if left untreated. The conclusion emphasizes that abstinence is the only way to completely prevent STIs, and if having sex, using condoms properly each time, though they do not fully protect against all STIs.
Airborne diseases
This document discusses several airborne diseases including tuberculosis, diphtheria, and meningitis. It provides background on the history and transmission of each disease. Tuberculosis is caused by bacteria that can be inhaled from an infected individual. It most commonly affects the lungs. Diphtheria is caused by bacteria that can spread through coughing or sneezing. Meningitis has several causes including bacteria, viruses, and fungi, and it inflames the membranes surrounding the brain and spinal cord. Prevention of airborne diseases focuses on good hygiene practices like handwashing and covering coughs and sneezes.

cornavirus disease
Corona viruses are a family of viruses that cause illness such as respiratory diseases or gastrointestinal diseases. More severe diseases eg-
Middle East Respiratory Syndrome (MERS-CoV)
Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome (SARS-CoV).
A novel coronavirus (nCoV) is a new strain that has not been identified in humans previously. Once scientists determine exactly what coronavirus it is, they give it a name (as in the case of COVID-19, the virus causing it is SARS-CoV-2).Coronaviruses got their name from the way that they look under a microscope.

Syphilis is a sexually transmitted disease caused by the bacterium Treponema pallidum. It initially presents with a painless skin lesion called a chancre, and without treatment can progress to cause malaise, rashes, and soft tumors affecting multiple organs. It is transmitted through oral, vaginal, or anal sex when infected sores contact mucosal tissues or broken skin. While abstinence and safe sex practices can help prevent transmission, syphilis can also be acquired through kissing if sores are present. Antibiotics like penicillin are effective treatments.

Sexually transmitted infections (sti)
Sexually transmitted infections (STIs) are infections spread primarily through sexual contact. Common STIs include chlamydia, genital herpes, genital warts, trichomoniasis, syphilis, and gonorrhea. STIs can be transmitted through unprotected vaginal, anal, and oral sex. While some STIs cause symptoms like discharges and sores, others like gonorrhea can be asymptomatic in females. STIs are typically diagnosed through symptoms, urine and blood tests, and swab cultures. Antibiotics can treat many bacterial STIs but viral STIs like HIV/AIDS, hepatitis B, and herpes have no cure. Untreated STIs can lead to complications
Syphilis
Syphilis is a bacterial infection spread through sexual contact or from mother to child. It has four stages: primary, secondary, latent, and tertiary. The primary stage involves painless sores, usually on the genitals or mouth. Without treatment, it can spread to affect the heart, brain and other organs. Syphilis is diagnosed through blood or other tests detecting antibodies. It is easily treated with antibiotics like penicillin in early stages. Untreated syphilis can cause serious complications.
STDs
This document provides information on 12 common sexually transmitted diseases: Syphilis, HIV/AIDS, Hepatitis B, Gonorrhea, Chlamydia, Lymphogranuloma Venereum, Genital Herpes, Genital Warts, Granuloma Venrum, Chancroid, Trichomonas Vaginitis, and Gardnerella Vaginalis. For each STD, it describes the causative agent, symptoms, diagnosis, and treatment options. The document is an educational resource on sexually transmitted infections and how they are identified and treated.
Sexually transmitted infection (sti)
The document discusses several common sexually transmitted infections, including chlamydia and gonorrhea, which are often asymptomatic but can lead to pelvic inflammatory disease or infertility if left untreated. It also covers syphilis, herpes, HIV/AIDS, and provides information on symptoms, stages of infection, testing, treatment, prevention, and what to do if you suspect you have an STI. The document emphasizes that abstinence, monogamy, and condom use can help prevent the spread of STIs, and that one unprotected sexual encounter can lead to infection.
Sexual transmitted infections st is
Sexually transmitted infections (STIs), also called sexually transmitted diseases (STDs), are passed from one person to another through sexual contact. The most common STIs among young adults ages 15-24 in the US are human papillomavirus (HPV), chlamydia, and gonorrhea. While some STIs have no symptoms, if left untreated they can cause health issues like pelvic inflammatory disease and infertility. Using condoms and getting vaccinated are effective ways to prevent the spread of STIs.
Communicable diseases
This document discusses several communicable respiratory infections including chickenpox, measles, influenza, and diphtheria. It defines each disease, describes the causative agent and mode of transmission, outlines clinical features and stages of illness, discusses treatment and prevention methods. Key points covered include that chickenpox is caused by varicella virus transmitted via droplets or lesions, measles causes a characteristic rash and is transmitted via droplets, influenza occurs seasonally and is caused by influenza viruses A/B/C, and diphtheria involves a bacterial toxin and is primarily transmitted via droplets. Prevention strategies for each include vaccination programs and isolation of infected individuals.
EL SIDA
HIV is a virus that causes AIDS by attacking immune cells called CD4 cells. It is believed to have originated from chimpanzees in Cameroon in the late 19th century. HIV spreads through sexual contact, blood transmission, and from mother to child during pregnancy, childbirth, or breastfeeding. While a cure does not exist, treatment with antiretroviral drugs can control the virus and prolong life.
Communicable Diseases and Tetanus
The document discusses communicable diseases and provides details on tetanus. It defines communicable diseases as those that can be transmitted between individuals via an infectious agent. It then lists common communicable diseases and modes of transmission. The document focuses on tetanus, describing it as a medical condition caused by a toxin that leads to prolonged muscle contractions. It discusses different types of tetanus like generalized, neonatal, local, and cephalic and their associated symptoms. Prevention of tetanus is through vaccination with a tetanus toxoid booster recommended every 10 years.
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.
STI
STIs, also known as STDs, are infections passed between people through sexual contact. They can be caused by viruses or bacteria. Common STIs include chlamydia, gonorrhea, herpes, HIV, and HPV. STIs spread through unprotected vaginal, oral, or anal sex with an infected partner. Women are often at higher risk than men because female anatomy makes transmission easier and some STIs may not show obvious symptoms. The best ways to prevent STIs include getting vaccinated, using condoms consistently, getting tested regularly, being in a mutually monogamous relationship, limiting number of partners, and avoiding alcohol and drug abuse.
Corona virus awareness session
The document provides information about the coronavirus disease (COVID-19). It describes COVID-19 as a respiratory illness that spreads between people within 6 feet through droplets from coughing or sneezing. Common symptoms include fever, cough, and shortness of breath. While anyone can get sick, those at higher risk are people in close contact with someone infected or who live in areas where the virus is actively spreading. Prevention methods include regular hand washing, social distancing, and staying home when sick. There is currently no vaccine to protect against COVID-19.
Coronavirus Prevention And Treatment (COVID-19)
Coronavirus declared as a pandemic by WHO. Till now there are close to 177,690 confirmed cases out of which 7,053 people have lost their life. COVID-19 is an inflammatory disease that may be prevented and cured by high immunity booster superfood like Spirulina.
Acquired immunodeficiency syndrome
The document discusses Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome (AIDS), which is caused by the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). It is transmitted through unprotected sex, contaminated blood transfusions, hypodermic needles, and during pregnancy or breastfeeding. There is currently no cure for AIDS, but treatment involves antiretroviral therapy to suppress HIV and prevent opportunistic infections. Scientists are working to develop more effective treatments such as protease inhibitors, fusion inhibitors, and integrase inhibitors.
Acquired immune deficiency syndrome
The document outlines the chain of HIV infection, including that HIV is transmitted through direct contact with infected blood or bodily fluids. It also discusses that while there is no cure for HIV, treatment with antiretroviral drugs can enable those infected to live long, healthy lives by suppressing the virus. Key aspects of treatment include starting post-exposure prophylaxis within 72 hours of potential exposure, monitoring viral levels before starting lifelong antiretroviral therapy, and maintaining low viral loads to prevent transmission. Prevention efforts focus on education and reducing risk behaviors.

Immunology xvii tu
This document discusses immune responses against tumors and tumor antigens. It covers several topics:
1) Tumor antigens can be tumor-specific antigens that develop in tumor cells or tumor-associated antigens that are normal body antigens but overexpressed in cancers.
2) The type of antigens expressed varies depending on the tumor type and cause. Virally-induced tumors express virus-specific antigens, while carcinogen-induced and spontaneous tumors have more variable antigens.
3) The immune system mounts several responses against tumors including cytotoxic T-cells, natural killer cells, antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity, macrophages, and antibody responses.
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.
Tumor immunology
Tumor immunology describes the interaction between cancer cells and the immune system. While intrinsic and environmental factors can cause dysregulated cell growth leading to cancer, the immune system provides innate and adaptive responses to identify and eliminate tumor cells. However, cancer cells can evade the immune system through various mechanisms. Cancer immunotherapy seeks to boost the immune response against cancer through cytokines, monoclonal antibodies, and vaccines to help treat certain cancers.
Immunologic tolerance
Central tolerance refers to deletion of self-reactive T and B cells in the thymus and bone marrow during maturation. T cells that recognize self antigens undergo apoptosis in the thymus. Peripheral tolerance uses backup mechanisms like clonal deletion through activation-induced cell death, clonal anergy from lack of co-stimulation, and suppression by regulatory T cells. These mechanisms help prevent autoimmune disease by silencing self-reactive cells that escape central tolerance.
Autoimmunity and autoimmune disease
The document summarizes a chapter about autoimmunity and autoimmune diseases from three perspectives:
1) It outlines several key autoimmune diseases, their causes from abnormal immune responses against self-antigens, and their symptoms.
2) It discusses the use of animal models to study the mechanisms and potential treatments of autoimmune diseases.
3) It examines current therapeutic approaches that aim to suppress autoimmune responses through drugs or removal of target organs, and potential alternative strategies like inducing tolerance to self-antigens.

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.
Hands up for hiv awareness
this ppt includes some special information about HIV virus and awareness for this kind of virus because it is globalized for a long time and the best way is prevention of this disease and have more information about that than before.
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.
AIDS
The document discusses AIDS/HIV, including:
1) It summarizes what AIDS is, how it is caused by HIV, and its symptoms like immune deficiency and increased risk of infections and cancers.
2) It provides an overview of HIV testing methods, treatment which involves combination antiretroviral drug therapy, and prevention through condom use and education.
3) It notes the global impact of AIDS, efforts to raise awareness, and challenges faced in India where stigma and lack of access to treatment remain issues.
Cara presentation
HIV can be effectively treated but not cured. Antiretroviral therapy can control the virus and symptoms, allowing people with HIV to live long and healthy lives. While treatment has advanced, stigma and misinformation continue to negatively impact those living with HIV. Education is key to addressing ignorance and creating a more accepting society.

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention addresses the treatment of AIDS-related illnesses and the spread of HIV/AIDS in communities across the United States. The CDC notes that those most vulnerable to HIV transmission are those with lower incomes, a history of drug addiction, mental illness, alcohol or drug abuse. Risky behaviors like injecting drugs or sharing needles increase the likelihood of HIV spreading. Drug addiction is a major public health concern that contributes to the risk of HIV infection among millions of vulnerable people. Addressing issues like risky drug use and addiction is important for controlling the HIV epidemic.

Lecture 14 hiv aids
HIV stands for human immunodeficiency virus. AIDS stands for acquired immunodeficiency syndrome. Scientists believe HIV originated from chimpanzees in West Africa and was transmitted to humans through contact with their infected blood. The three most common ways HIV is spread are through unprotected sex, sharing needles, and from mother to child during pregnancy or breastfeeding. Less common ways of transmission include occupational needle sticks or transplants involving infected blood. Three main ways to prevent spread are getting tested and treated if positive, using condoms correctly, and not sharing needles for drug use.

HIV damages CD4+ T cells, weakening the immune system and potentially leading to AIDS. It is primarily spread through unprotected sex and sharing needles. Scientists believe HIV originated in chimpanzees in West Africa and was transmitted to humans through blood contact with infected chimpanzees. AIDS refers to acquired immunodeficiency syndrome, characterized by infections and cancers that occur when the immune system is weakened by HIV. While treatment cannot cure HIV/AIDS, antiretroviral drugs in combination can suppress the virus indefinitely and delay the onset of AIDS.
HIV
This document provides an overview of HIV/AIDS, including:
- HIV stands for human immunodeficiency virus and causes AIDS by weakening the immune system. AIDS is acquired immunodeficiency syndrome.
- HIV is believed to have transferred from chimpanzees to humans in Western Africa in the late 1800s. HIV is transmitted through certain body fluids and is not spread through casual contact.
- As HIV progresses to AIDS, it damages the immune system, allowing opportunistic infections and cancers to threaten the body. While AIDS was often fatal before treatments, antiretroviral therapy now allows people to live decades with HIV before developing AIDS.
- Prevention methods include safe sex practices,
Sexually transmitted infections and H.I.V
Sexually transmitted infections (STIs), also known as sexually transmitted diseases (STDs), are passed between people through sexual contact. Common STIs include chlamydia, gonorrhea, herpes, HIV/AIDS, human papillomavirus (HPV), syphilis, and pubic lice. While some STIs may cause symptoms like sores or discharge, others show no symptoms but can still be spread. STIs are treated with antibiotics or antiviral medications to cure the infection and prevent transmission, but in some cases like herpes and HIV, there is no cure. Using protection like condoms during sex and getting tested regularly are effective ways to prevent STIs.
