Athlete's foot is caused by a microscopic fungus that spreads easily in moist areas like showers. Anyone can get athlete's foot but those who spend more time in moist environments like pools are more prone to it. The signs and symptoms include scaling, flaking, and itching skin on the feet, and can be diagnosed visually or via a potassium hydroxide test. There are different categories of athlete's foot that can be acute, chronic, or recurrent. Treatment involves keeping feet clean and dry, wearing clean socks and shoes, and using antifungal medications or soaks for several weeks.

Athletes foot
There are three types of athlete's foot that present differently: toe web infection between the toes causes scaly, peeled, cracked skin; moccasin type affects the heel and causes thick, cracked skin; vesicular type produces fluid-filled blisters under the foot. It spreads easily through direct contact or shared items and thrives in moist environments. While it can be treated with over-the-counter medications, prescription options or seeing a podiatrist may be necessary for severe cases. Proper foot hygiene and avoiding sharing items can help prevent repeat infections.
Athlete’s foot
Athlete's foot is a common skin infection of the feet caused by the Trichophyton fungus, which infects the upper layer of skin. It is transmitted between people through direct contact with infected floors, pools, socks or clothing. Anyone can get athlete's foot, but it mainly affects men from teens to middle age. Symptoms include dry, itchy, burning, peeling skin and sometimes cracking and bleeding. It is diagnosed by visual examination and microscopic analysis of skin scrapings. Treatment involves over-the-counter antifungal powders, creams and sprays. Proper foot hygiene and avoiding walking barefoot can help prevent athlete's foot.
ATHLETE'S FOOT [TENEA PEDIS] FUNGI
Athlete's foot, or tinea pedis, is a fungal infection of the skin on the feet. It is caused by trichophyton fungi and spreads easily through direct or indirect contact. Symptoms include itching, burning, scaling, and blistering between the toes or on the sole. Diagnosis is usually made through microscopic examination of skin scrapings in potassium hydroxide solution, which reveals fungal cells. Treatment involves using antifungal creams, sprays, or oral medications. Prevention focuses on keeping feet dry, changing socks daily, and not walking barefoot in public areas.

Athlete's foot
Athlete's foot, or tinea pedis, is a common fungal infection that affects the skin on the feet. It is caused by fungi such as Trichophyton rubrum and T. mentagrophytes. Symptoms include itching, burning, dry skin, scaling, inflammation and blisters. The infection is transmitted through direct contact with infected skin or indirectly through contact with contaminated surfaces. Prevention involves keeping feet dry, changing socks daily, and using antifungal medications or topical treatments. Without treatment, athlete's foot can lead to more serious bacterial infections or nail infections.
Fungal infections
Fungi are eukaryotic organisms that can live in air, soil, on plants, and in water. Fungal infections occur when the immune system cannot fight off invading fungi. There are many types of fungi including yeasts, molds, and dimorphic fungi. Risk factors for fungal infections include weak immune systems, medications, obesity, and sweaty conditions. Common fungal infections include athlete's foot, ringworm, and onychomycosis. They are typically diagnosed by microscopic examination and treated with topical antifungal creams or oral antifungal medications.

Leprosy
Here are some possible responses to the questions:
1. The higher incidence and prevalence of leprosy in males compared to females could be due to various socio-cultural factors. Males may have greater exposure and mobility which increases their risk of contracting the disease. There could also be under-reporting of cases in females due to lack of access to healthcare and social stigma.
2. To reduce stigma and discrimination against leprosy affected persons and their families, sustained awareness programs targeting the general public as well as affected communities are needed. Educating people about the modes of transmission and that leprosy is curable can help reduce misconceptions. Involving affected persons in advocacy can also help normalize the condition and empower those

Lungs (amy t, alexis s, sam m)
This document summarizes information about lung transplantation. It discusses that lungs are located in the chest and function to oxygenate blood and remove carbon dioxide. Over 1,200 lung transplants are performed annually in the US, with a 5-year survival rate of 72-83%. However, over 111,000 people are waiting for lungs and over 6,500 people die each year waiting. Lung transplants are considered for those with end-stage lung disease who have less than 2 years to live. The procedure takes 4-8 hours in specialized hospitals and has a high cost, but can extend life for transplant recipients who must follow medical therapies and lifestyle restrictions long-term.
Heart 1
The heart is located in the center-left portion of the chest and pumps oxygen-rich blood to all cells in the body. The United States performs over 2,000 heart transplants annually, with survival rates of 81% after 1 year and around 68% after 5 years. Heart transplants may be required for severe heart failure or defects that cannot be treated otherwise. Recipients must meet health criteria and take anti-rejection drugs lifelong, while living with cardiac monitoring and dietary restrictions after transplant.
Cornea(1)
The cornea is the transparent front part of the eye that transmits and focuses light. About 40,000 cornea transplants are performed in the US each year, with a 90% success rate. Candidates are screened for infections or health risks and may be disqualified for certain conditions. The transplant procedure takes 1-2 hours and costs around $7,500. Post-surgery therapy includes eye drops, pills, and activity restrictions for healing.
Asthma project
Asthma is a chronic inflammation of the airways that affects millions of adults and children in the U.S. It is caused by triggers like dust, pollen, pet hair, or tobacco smoke that bring about symptoms like wheezing, shortness of breath, and coughing. While asthma cannot be passed between individuals, chronic coughing may impact transmission of other illnesses. The disease affects the bronchial tubes leading to the lungs and symptoms are often worse in the morning or evening in response to cold air. Preventative inhalers can help control symptoms and attacks to manage the disease, which is lifelong once developed, though its effects can be minimized with proper treatment.

Rabies is caused by a virus transmitted through the saliva or nervous system tissue of an infected animal. It causes flu-like symptoms that can develop into cerebral dysfunctions, anxiety, and delirium. Over 50,000 people in Asia and Africa die from rabies each year. While rabies can be either acute or chronic depending on treatment, prevention focuses on vaccinating pets, removing strays, and avoiding contact with wild animals.
Narc
Narcolepsy is a neurological disorder that affects sleep control, making it difficult to stay awake during the day. Its causes are unknown but believed to be genetic and related to low levels of the brain chemical hypocretin. Symptoms include extreme daytime sleepiness with focus problems, loss of muscle tone during wakefulness, and vivid dreams or hallucinations when waking or falling asleep, typically affecting people ages 15-25 or those who don't sleep well at night.
ssa
Sickle cell anemia is a genetic blood disorder caused when both parents carry the sickle cell trait and pass it to their child. The red blood cells take on a sickle shape, which prevents them from properly carrying oxygen throughout the body. Symptoms may appear after four months of age and include attacks of pain, breathing issues, fatigue and more. While there is no cure, new treatments are helping those with sickle cell anemia live longer, into their 50s rather than the previous average of 20-40 years of age. Prevention includes vaccinations, genetic counseling before having children, and living a normal life with proper precautions.

Osteogenesis imperfecta is a genetic disorder caused by a defect in the collagen gene that results in brittle bones that break easily from minor stress or trauma. There are four main types of OI that vary in severity from very mild to lethal in infancy. While there is no cure for OI, treatments focus on increasing bone strength through bisphosphonates and low-impact exercise, as well as surgery to repair broken bones. People with OI must manage their condition for life through precautions to avoid further fractures.
Amanda mcgurk lupus
Lupus is an autoimmune disease with no known cause that predominantly affects women aged 15-44, especially those of African American, Asian, Native American, or Pacific Islander descent. Common symptoms include arthritis, joint pain, fever, fatigue, skin rash, and sensitivity to sunlight. While the signs and symptoms vary per individual, lupus produces antibodies that attack the body's own tissues and can affect the lungs, blood, brain, kidney, heart, and joints. There is no cure for lupus currently, but treatment involves medications like steroids, immunosuppressants, and anti-inflammatories to reduce symptoms, though it can sometimes be fatal depending on the severity of the case.
Yellow fever slide
Yellow fever is caused by a virus transmitted through the bites of infected female mosquitoes, with an incubation period of 3-6 days. Symptoms include headache, fever and muscle aches initially, and potentially progressing to jaundice, liver failure, and black vomit. While most cases are mild, the disease can be fatal for around 3% of infected individuals in the second more severe phase if left untreated.
Bulimia
Bulimia nervosa is an eating disorder characterized by binge eating followed by purging. It can be caused by genetic and environmental factors like role models and social pressures. While anyone can develop it, girls aged 15-24 are most at risk. Bulimia damages the entire body and can lead to organ failure or death if left untreated. Treatment focuses on breaking the binge-purge cycle through therapy and support to address underlying emotional issues.

Black death marley(2)
Bubonic plague is caused by the Yersinia pestis bacterium which is typically transmitted through the bites of infected fleas living on rodents like rats, squirrels, and prairie dogs. Symptoms include fever, chills, swollen lymph nodes, and other flu-like symptoms appearing 1-6 days after exposure. While not usually chronic, one can be reinfected, so prevention focuses on controlling rodent populations to limit flea-borne transmission of the plague bacterium.
African trypanosomiasis
African trypanosomiasis, also known as sleeping sickness, is caused by a parasite called Trypanosoma and transmitted by the bite of the tsetse fly. It affects people in rural parts of Africa and causes symptoms like swelling at the bite site, severe fatigue, headaches, joint pain, behavioral changes, and disturbed sleep patterns. While it can cause neurological disorders and death if left untreated, it can be prevented by avoiding tsetse fly habitats or wearing protective clothing, and treated with drugs like Pentamidine, Suramin, and combinations of other drugs.
Shingles
Varicella-zoster virus causes both chickenpox and shingles. Shingles occurs when the virus reactivates after dormancy in the nervous system following chickenpox. It is characterized by a painful rash that typically affects a limited area on one side of the body. Treatment aims to reduce pain and complications through antiviral medication started within 24 hours of symptom onset, along with anti-inflammatory drugs and soothing baths. While shingles itself is usually not fatal, high-risk groups could die if exposed without proper medical care.
Anthrax
Anthrax is caused by the bacteria Bacillus anthracis. It can infect humans through contact with infected animals or animal products, as well as through inhalation of anthrax spores. There are three main types - cutaneous (skin), inhalation (lungs), and gastrointestinal (digestive system). Symptoms vary depending on type but can include lesions, vomiting, diarrhea, and respiratory issues. Anthrax spores can also be used as a biological weapon. Diagnosis involves cultures and antibody tests while treatment requires long courses of antibiotics.
