Ascaris lumbricoides, also known as the common roundworm, is the largest intestinal worm that infects humans. It is found worldwide but is most common in tropical areas with poor sanitation. Adult worms live in the small intestine and lay eggs that are passed in feces. When ingested, the eggs hatch and release larvae that travel to the lungs before maturing and migrating to the small intestine. Common symptoms include abdominal pain and blockages. Treatment involves anthelmintic drugs while prevention focuses on improved sanitation.
Ascariasis is an infection of the small intestine caused by Ascaris lumbricoides, which is a species of roundworm. Roundworms are a type of parasitic worm. Infections caused by roundworms are fairly common. Ascariasis is the most common roundworm infection.

Nematodes are invertebrate roundworms that inhabit marine, freshwater, and terrestrial environments. They comprise the phylum Nematoda (or Nemata) which includes parasites of plants and of animals, including humans, as well as species that feed on bacteria, fungi, algae, and on other nematodes. Four out of every five multicellular animals on the planet are nematodes (Platt, 1994). Cobb (1914) calculated that if the nematodes resident in a single acre of soil near San Antonio, Texas, USA, were to proceed in head-to-tail procession to Washington D.C., some 2000 miles away, the first nematode would reach Washington before the rear of the procession left San Antonio!

The majority of nematodes are microscopic, averaging less than a millimeter in length, but some of the animal parasites are quite large and readily visible to the naked eye. The animal and plant parasites are of direct importance in agriculture, the environment, and in human health; however, most nematodes in the environment are not parasites. Nematodes that feed on other organisms are important participants in the cycling of minerals and nutrients in the ecosystem that is fundamental to other biological activity. Some of these nematodes may have major roles in decomposition, including biodegradation of toxic compounds. In fact, the incidence of certain nematode species is sometimes used as an indicator of environmental quality. Insect-parasitic nematodes can be of importance in regulating insect populations, and are being used in the biological control of insect pests.
The developmental biology of one nematode species, Caenorhabditis elegans, is better characterized than that of any other multicellular organism. C. elegans is studied as a model system in molecular and developmental biology, and is providing insights into many other areas of biology and medicine.

It occurs due to repeated episodes of acute nephritic syndrome, nephrosclerosis and hyperlipidemia.
A curriculum Plan is the advance arrangement of learning opportunities for a particular population of learners.
Curriculum guide is a written curriculum.
Curriculum Planning is the process whereby the arrangement of curriculum plans or learning opportunities are created.
Master rotation plan is the overall plan of rotation of all students in a particular educational institution, showing the placement of the students belonging to total programme (4 years in B.Sc.(N) and 3 years in GNM) includes both theory and practice denoting the study block, partial block, placement of student in clinical blocks, team nursing, examinations, vacation, co-curricular activities etc.
Curriculum Evaluation is the process of collecting data on a programme to determine its value or worth with the aim of deciding whether to adopt, reject, or revise the programme.
Indian citizens possessing foreign nursing qualification are examined individually & after examination the syllabi and conformation from concerned foreign authorities, the nurses are granted approval for registration in India with the recommendation of equivalence committee under Section 11(2)(a) INC Act. 1947.
A model is a three-dimensional representation of a person or thing or of a proposed structure, typically on a smaller scale than the original:"a model of St. Paul's Cathedral“
A Model is a pattern of something to be made or reproduced and means of transferring a relationship `or process from its real (actual) setting to one which it can be more conveniently studied.
Curriculum development is a process in which participants at many levels make decisions about the purposes of learning, teaching- learning situation.
It is the process of gathering, setting, selecting, balancing and synthesizing relevant information from many sources in order to design the goals of curriculum.
Let’s examine what happens in each step of the curriculum development/revision cycle. This cycle is a dynamic system that helps each school re-vitalize and replenish what is taught to its students.
Determinants of curriculum are the factors that affect the process of assessing needs, formulating objectives and developing instructional opportunities and evaluations.
The term philosophy is derived from the Greek word Philein meaning to love, to strive after or search for and from the word Sophia which means wisdom.
Therefore, Philosophy is the search for wisdom by philosophers.
Teachers use curricula when trying to see what to teach to students and when, as well as what the rubrics should be, what kind of worksheets and teacher worksheets they should make, among other things.
It is actually up to the teachers themselves how these rubrics should be made, how these worksheets should be made and taught; it's all up to the teachers.
Perception (from the Latin perceptio) is the organization, identification, and interpretation of sensory information in order to represent and understand the presented information, or the environment.
The somatoform disorders are a group of psychological disorders in which a patient experiences physical symptoms that are inconsistent with or cannot be fully explained by any underlying general medical or neurologic condition. Medically unexplained physical symptoms account for as many as 50% of new medical outpatient visits. [1] Physical symptoms or painful complaints of unknown etiology are fairly common in pediatric populations. [2] Many healthy young children express emotional distress in terms of physical pain, such as stomachaches or headaches, but these complaints are usually transient and do not effect the child's overall functioning. The somatoform disorders represent the severe end of a continuum of somatic symptoms.
Somatization in children consists of the persistent experience and complaints of somatic distress that cannot be fully explained by a medical diagnosis. They can be represented by a wide spectrum of severity, ranging from mild self-limited symptoms, such as stomachache and headache, to chronic disabling symptoms, such as seizures and paralysis. These psychological disorders are often difficult to approach and complex to understand. It is important to note that these symptoms are not intentionally produced or under voluntary control.
In somatoform disorders, somatic symptoms become the focus of children and their families. They generally interfere with school, home life, and peer relationships. These youngsters are more likely to be considered sickly or health impaired by parents and caretakers, to be absent from school, and to perform poorly in academics. Somatization is often associated temporarily with psychosocial stress and can persist even after the acute stressor has resolved, resulting in the belief by the child and his or her family that the correct medical diagnosis has not yet been found. Thus, patients and families may continue to seek repeated medical treatment after being informed that no acute physical illness has been found and that the symptoms cannot be fully explained by a general medical condition. When somatization occurs in the context of a physical illness, it is identified by symptoms that go beyond the expected pathophysiology of the physical illness.
Recurrent complaints often present as diagnostic and treatment dilemmas to the primary care practitioner (PCP) who is trying to make sense of these symptoms. The PCP may feel poorly prepared and/or may have little time to assess or treat the somatic concerns. While the more disabling somatic complaints are more likely to be referred to a mental health professional, these youngsters presenting with these disabling physical symptoms bridge both medical and psychological domains and present a puzzling quandary for professionals from either field if working with them alone. [3] The nature of these symptoms requires an integrated medical and psychiatric treatment approach to successfully decrease the impairment caused by these disorders.
Schizophrenia is a mental disorder that usually appears in late adolescence or early adulthood. Characterized by delusions, hallucinations, and other cognitive difficulties, schizophrenia can often be a lifelong struggle.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.
2. INTRODUCTION
Ascaris lumbricoides is the
largest nematode
(roundworm) parasitizing the
human intestine.
Ascaris lumbricoides is an
intestinal worm found in the
small intestine of man.
They are more common in
children than in adult.
As many as 500 to 5000
adult worms may inhabit a
single host.
3. Geographic Distribution
The most common human helminthic
infection.
Worldwide distribution.
Highest prevalence in tropical and subtropical
regions, and areas with inadequate
sanitation.
4. MORPHOLOGY
It is a elongated, cylindrical
and tapering at both ends.
Sexes are separate
The female is longer than
male 20 – 35 cm long, 4-6
mm in diameter.
Male is smaller being 15-30
cm long, 2-4 mm in diameter.
The posterior end of male is
curved having penial setae
near the end.
5. The Mouth Parts
The mouth opens at
the anterior end.
It is surrounded by
three finely toothed
lips.
The lips are one dorsal
and two ventrolateral.
These lips bear
sensory structures
called labial papillae.
6. INFECTION TO MAN
It occurs when the man swallows the infective
eggs of Ascaris with contaminated food or
water.
9. Adult worms live in the lumen of the small intestine.
A female may produce approximately 200,000 eggs
per day, which are passed with the faeces .
Unfertilized eggs may be ingested but are not
infective. Fertile eggs embryonate and become
infective after 18 days to several weeks.
After infective eggs are swallowed , the larvae hatch ,
invade the intestinal mucosa.
Carried via the portal, then systemic circulation to
the lungs. larvae mature further in the lungs (10 to 14
days), penetrate the alveolar walls, ascend the
bronchial tree to the throat, and are swallowed.
Upon reaching the small intestine, they develop into
adult worms. Between 2 and 3 months are required
from ingestion of the infective eggs to oviposition by
the adult female. Adult worms can live 1 to 2 years.
10. Symptoms of Ascariasis
No symptoms
Stage 1: worm larvae in the bowels attach to bowel walls
Stage 2: worm larvae migrate into the lungs:
Fever and breathing difficulty
Coughing and pneumonia
Stage 3: worms enter the small intestine and mature into worms
and remain there to feed
Abdominal symptoms
Abdominal discomfort
Intestinal blockage - may be partial or complete
Partial intestinal blockage
Total intestinal blockage
Severe abdominal pain
Vomiting
Restlessness
Disturbed sleep
Worm in stool
Worm in vomit
11. CLINICAL FEATURES
Abdominal pain, diarrhoea, vomiting
and slight temperature.
It blocks intestine and appendix.
They may enter bile or pancreatic duct
and interfere with digestion.
Injure the intestine and cause
peritonitis.
They produce toxins which irritate the
mucous membrane of the gut, or
prevent digestion of protein by host by
destroying an enzyme trypsin.
In children they cause stunted growth
and makes the mental capacity dull.
Larvae causes inflammation and
haemorrhage in the lungs which
results in pneumonia – may prove
fatal.
12. Treatment
Infections with A.lumbricoides are easily treated
with a number of anthelmintic drugs:
pyrantel pamoate given as a single dose of 10
mg/kg.
levamisole given as a single dose of 2.5 mg/kg.
mebendazole given as a single dose of 500 mg.
albendazole given as a single dose of 400 mg.
13. PREVENTION
Keeping good sanitation conditions is the only way to
prevent the infection of Ascaris.
Pollution of soil with human faeces should be
avoided.
Vegetable should be thoroughly washed in a mild
solution of Pottasium permanganate and properly
cooked before use.
Finger nails should be regularly cut to avoid the
collection of dirt and eggs below them.
Hands should be properly washed with some
antiseptic soap before touching edibles or eating.
