This document provides information on HIV/AIDS including what HIV/AIDS is, how it progresses, transmission routes, prevention methods, and treatment. It defines AIDS as occurring in people with HIV when the CD4 count is below 200 or they have an opportunistic infection. HIV progressively damages the immune system, making people more susceptible to infections. While there is no cure for AIDS, antiretroviral treatment can slow its progression. The document outlines transmission routes like unprotected sex, contaminated blood, and from mother to child; and prevention methods like condom use, circumcision, antiretroviral treatment, and not sharing needles.

AIDS and its vengeance saw a back seat after we achieved the zero level of growth for it. But worries regarding the people living with AIDS are still on and we need to take care of these segments in an integrated manner
Hiv &ictc seminar by Dr. Mousumi Sarkar
India's national adult HIV prevalence is estimated at 0.26%. The total number of people living with HIV in India is estimated to be 21.17 lakhs. India has one of the world's largest HIV surveillance systems which helps monitor trends, levels, and burden of HIV among different populations. This system includes sentinel surveillance at antenatal clinics, Integrated Biological and Behavioural Surveillance among high-risk groups, sexually transmitted infection surveillance, AIDS case reporting, and death registration. The surveillance data is used to estimate disease distribution, identify groups for intervention, evaluate program effectiveness, and guide prevention efforts.
CRITICAL ANALYSIS OF PMTCT IN NIGERIA
Mother-to-child transmission of HIV (MTCT) is the main route by which infants acquire HIV infection globally. In 2010, children living with HIV in Nigeria contributed 15.3% to the 370,000 infected children worldwide, thus, the region with the highest number of unprotected childhood infection. This accounts for about 90% of HIV infection in children below 15 years of age.Most children below 15 years living with HIV contract diseases through MTCT (FMoH, 2010)
Overall incidence of MTCT without intervention is 20%-45% distributed over
-Antenatal period
-Labour & Delivery
-Breastfeeding
Without intervention,
About 30% of infants of HIV infected mothers will be infected during pregnancy and delivery
An additional 5-20% will also be infected through breastfeeding practices.

HIV/AIDS
HIV stands for Human Immunodeficiency Virus. AIDS stands for Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome. AIDS is a result of the development of the HIV virus into a more serious condition. AIDS was first recognised by the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention in 1981 and its cause, HIV, identified in the early 1980s.
Understanding HIV
HIV is a contagious infection which attacks the immune system, reducing its effectiveness and leaving the body susceptible to infections. The HIV infection damages the cells the body needs to fight illnesses. AIDS can be diagnosed when the number of immune system cells (CD4 cells) in the blood of a person with HIV drops below a certain level.
There is no cure for HIV or AIDS, but there are treatments that can slow down the disease, and help prevent the onset of AIDS. It takes around ten years for someone with HIV to develop AIDS, but it can be prevented with early detection and treatment of the HIV

The latest recommendations by WHO on HIV treatment--New Guidelines
This document provides consolidated guidelines on the use of antiretroviral drugs for treating and preventing HIV infection. It includes recommendations for a public health approach across the continuum of HIV care, from diagnosis to treatment to monitoring. The guidelines were developed by the World Health Organization and draw on the most recent evidence from multiple sources. They are intended to guide national HIV programs in providing optimal HIV treatment, care, and prevention.
National AIDS Control Programme NACP
Acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) is a chronic, potentially life-threatening condition caused by the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). By damaging your immune system, HIV interferes with your body's ability to fight infection and disease.
The National AIDS Control Programme (NACP), launched in 1992, is being implemented as a comprehensive programme for prevention and control of HIV/AIDS in India. Over time, the focus has shifted from raising awareness to behavior change, from a national response to a more decentralized response and to increasing involvement of NGOs and networks of PLHIV.
National AIDS & STD control programme of India
The document discusses India's National AIDS Control Programme and strategies to control the spread of HIV/AIDS in India. It notes that the Director General of Health Services formed an AIDS cell in 1985 to coordinate HIV/AIDS activities. The national strategy includes establishing surveillance centers, identifying and screening high-risk groups, issuing guidelines for managing cases and blood safety, and conducting IEC activities and research. As of the document's writing, there were 62 surveillance centers and 29 blood testing centers. The highest numbers of HIV infections are seen in Maharashtra, Tamil Nadu, and among injectable drug users in Manipur.

The document discusses how the media portrays unrealistic standards that pressure men and women. It summarizes research showing that women see hundreds of advertisements per day emphasizing beauty, causing many to feel pressure to be thin. Men are often depicted as hyper-masculine and dominant. A survey found that both men and women feel the media influences them to conform to stereotypes, with women feeling pressure to be thin and beautiful, and men feeling pressure to be strong and muscular. While the media impacts both sexes, it pressures them in different ways and can lower self-esteem, especially in women.

W hat you need to know about aids
HIV and AIDS are caused by different viruses. HIV weakens the immune system, and AIDS is the final stage where the immune system is too weak to fight off infections. There is currently no cure for HIV/AIDS. HIV can be transmitted through bodily fluids like blood, semen, vaginal fluids and breast milk. It can also be transmitted from mother to child during pregnancy, birth, or breastfeeding. People can lower their risk by abstaining from sex, having only one monogamous partner, using condoms correctly every time, and not sharing needles.

07 Trend in ethiopia for last 26 years.pdf
After declining for decades, HIV infection rates in Ethiopia have begun to rise again in recent years. While new HIV infections declined by 81% between 1995 and 2016, the rate of decline has slowed and infections have increased by 10% since 2008. Current estimates indicate that 67% of people living with HIV know their status, and Ethiopia is on track to meet treatment targets but may fall short of the first 90% diagnosis goal by 2020. Regional disparities remain, with higher infection rates in some areas like Gambela compared to the national average. Continued efforts are needed to accelerate diagnosis and avert further increases in new infections.

GASTROINTESTINAL INFECTIONS AND GASTRITIS
Osvaldo Bernardo Muchanga
Gastrointestinal Infections
GASTROINTESTINAL INFECTIONS result from the ingestion of pathogens that cause infections at the level of this tract, generally being transmitted by food, water and hands contaminated by microorganisms such as E. coli, Salmonella, Shigella, Vibrio cholerae, Campylobacter, Staphylococcus, Rotavirus among others that are generally contained in feces, thus configuring a FECAL-ORAL type of transmission.
Among the factors that lead to the occurrence of gastrointestinal infections are the hygienic and sanitary deficiencies that characterize our markets and other places where raw or cooked food is sold, poor environmental sanitation in communities, deficiencies in water treatment (or in the process of its plumbing), risky hygienic-sanitary habits (not washing hands after major and/or minor needs), among others.
These are generally consequences (signs and symptoms) resulting from gastrointestinal infections: diarrhea, vomiting, fever and malaise, among others.
The treatment consists of replacing lost liquids and electrolytes (drinking drinking water and other recommended liquids, including consumption of juicy fruits such as papayas, apples, pears, among others that contain water in their composition).
To prevent this, it is necessary to promote health education, improve the hygienic-sanitary conditions of markets and communities in general as a way of promoting, preserving and prolonging PUBLIC HEALTH.
Gastritis and Gastric Health
Gastric Health is one of the most relevant concerns in human health, with gastrointestinal infections being among the main illnesses that affect humans.
Among gastric problems, we have GASTRITIS AND GASTRIC ULCERS as the main public health problems. Gastritis and gastric ulcers normally result from inflammation and corrosion of the walls of the stomach (gastric mucosa) and are generally associated (caused) by the bacterium Helicobacter pylor, which, according to the literature, this bacterium settles on these walls (of the stomach) and starts to release urease that ends up altering the normal pH of the stomach (acid), which leads to inflammation and corrosion of the mucous membranes and consequent gastritis or ulcers, respectively.
In addition to bacterial infections, gastritis and gastric ulcers are associated with several factors, with emphasis on prolonged fasting, chemical substances including drugs, alcohol, foods with strong seasonings including chilli, which ends up causing inflammation of the stomach walls and/or corrosion. of the same, resulting in the appearance of wounds and consequent gastritis or ulcers, respectively.
Among patients with gastritis and/or ulcers, one of the dilemmas is associated with the foods to consume in order to minimize the sensation of pain and discomfort. 2nd generation Antihistaminic-Part II.pptx

CLASSIFICATION OF H1 ANTIHISTAMINICS-
FIRST GENERATION ANTIHISTAMINICS-
1)HIGHLY SEDATIVE-DIPHENHYDRAMINE,DIMENHYDRINATE,PROMETHAZINE,HYDROXYZINE 2)MODERATELY SEDATIVE- PHENARIMINE,CYPROHEPTADINE, MECLIZINE,CINNARIZINE
3)MILD SEDATIVE-CHLORPHENIRAMINE,DEXCHLORPHENIRAMINE
TRIPROLIDINE,CLEMASTINE
SECOND GENERATION ANTIHISTAMINICS-FEXOFENADINE,
LORATADINE,DESLORATADINE,CETIRIZINE,LEVOCETIRIZINE,
AZELASTINE,MIZOLASTINE,EBASTINE,RUPATADINE. Mechanism of action of 2nd generation antihistaminics-
These drugs competitively antagonize actions of
histamine at the H1 receptors.
Pharmacological actions-
Antagonism of histamine-The H1 antagonists effectively block histamine induced bronchoconstriction, contraction of intestinal and other smooth muscle and triple response especially wheal, flare and itch. Constriction of larger blood vessel by histamine is also antagonized.
2) Antiallergic actions-Many manifestations of immediate hypersensitivity (type I reactions)are suppressed. Urticaria, itching and angioedema are well controlled.3) CNS action-The older antihistamines produce variable degree of CNS depression.But in case of 2nd gen antihistaminics there is less CNS depressant property as these cross BBB to significantly lesser extent.
4) Anticholinergic action- many H1 blockers
in addition antagonize muscarinic actions of ACh. BUT IN 2ND gen histaminics there is Higher H1 selectivitiy : no anticholinergic side effects

Storyboard on Acne-Innovative Learning-M. pharm. (2nd sem.) Cosmetics
Acne is a common skin condition that occurs when hair follicles become clogged with oil and dead skin cells. It typically manifests as pimples, blackheads, or whiteheads, often on the face, chest, shoulders, or back. Acne can range from mild to severe and may cause emotional distress and scarring in some cases.
**Causes:**
1. **Excess Oil Production:** Hormonal changes during adolescence or certain times in adulthood can increase sebum (oil) production, leading to clogged pores.
2. **Clogged Pores:** When dead skin cells and oil block hair follicles, bacteria (usually Propionibacterium acnes) can thrive, causing inflammation and acne lesions.
3. **Hormonal Factors:** Fluctuations in hormone levels, such as during puberty, menstrual cycles, pregnancy, or certain medical conditions, can contribute to acne.
4. **Genetics:** A family history of acne can increase the likelihood of developing the condition.
**Types of Acne:**
- **Whiteheads:** Closed plugged pores.
- **Blackheads:** Open plugged pores with a dark surface.
- **Papules:** Small red, tender bumps.
- **Pustules:** Pimples with pus at their tips.
- **Nodules:** Large, solid, painful lumps beneath the surface.
- **Cysts:** Painful, pus-filled lumps beneath the surface that can cause scarring.
**Treatment:**
Treatment depends on the severity and type of acne but may include:
- **Topical Treatments:** Such as benzoyl peroxide, salicylic acid, or retinoids to reduce bacteria and unclog pores.
- **Oral Medications:** Antibiotics or oral contraceptives for hormonal acne.
- **Procedures:** Such as chemical peels, extraction of comedones, or light therapy for more severe cases.
**Prevention and Management:**
- **Cleanse:** Regularly wash skin with a gentle cleanser.
- **Moisturize:** Use non-comedogenic moisturizers to keep skin hydrated without clogging pores.
- **Avoid Irritants:** Such as harsh cosmetics or excessive scrubbing.
- **Sun Protection:** Use sunscreen to prevent exacerbation of acne scars and inflammation.
Acne treatment can take time, and consistency in skincare routines and treatments is crucial. Consulting a dermatologist can help tailor a treatment plan that suits individual needs and reduces the risk of scarring or long-term skin damage.
