Swine flu
Swine flu is caused by influenza viruses that regularly cause outbreaks in pigs. The 2009 outbreak derived from human, avian, and swine influenza strains. Symptoms include fever, muscle aches, coughing, and vomiting. Historical pandemics like the 1918 Spanish Flu killed millions. Homeopathic treatments were found to have much lower mortality rates compared to allopathic treatments during the 1918 flu pandemic. To reduce risk of infection, avoid contact with sick individuals and practice good hygiene. Remaining calm and maintaining a healthy lifestyle can help boost immunity.
Dengue fever
Global warming is causing tropical diseases carried by mosquitoes and ticks to spread farther and increase in frequency. Dengue fever is a viral disease transmitted by day-biting mosquitoes that infects 50-100 million people annually. It causes fever, pain and potentially internal bleeding and death. While historically present in the southern US, it was largely eliminated after WWII but has reappeared in recent years in Texas and Florida due to rising temperatures allowing mosquito habitats to expand. Chikungunya virus causes similar symptoms and is also spread by mosquitoes found in the US.
1918 Influenza
This document summarizes several influenza pandemics throughout history. It discusses the epidemiology of influenza viruses and how they commonly mutate, requiring annual vaccines. It then describes several major flu pandemics in detail, including the deadly Spanish flu from 1918 which killed 20-50 million people globally, the Asian flu of 1957 caused by the H2N2 virus which killed 1-4 million, and the Hong Kong flu of 1968 caused by H3N2 virus which killed around 750,000 people worldwide including 34,000 in the US. It also briefly discusses the 1976 swine flu scare in the US.
The flu vaccine presentation
The document discusses the influenza virus and the flu vaccine. It provides details on the history and types of flu, symptoms, treatments, and the process used to develop the annual flu vaccine. The vaccine is considered the most effective prevention method, though its ability to protect depends on factors like the match between the vaccine's viral strain and the circulating strain. On campus, flu shots are available through a clinic run by Emergicare where students can get vaccinated using insurance or pay cash.
Influenza in children
This document discusses influenza in children. Key points include:
- Influenza infection disproportionately affects young children and is a significant global disease burden, especially in developing countries.
- Children under 5 years old, especially under 2, are at highest risk of complications from influenza. Other high-risk groups include those with neurological disorders, heart or lung disease, diabetes, or immunosuppression.
- Common complications in children include pneumonia, ear infections, and myositis. Testing and early treatment with oseltamivir is recommended for high-risk groups and others requiring antiviral treatment.
Dengue in Sri Lanka - Rivin
Sri Lanka faced an unpredicted outbreak of dengue fever. It is a tropical country with two monsoon seasons. With each monsoon brings in two peaks of dengue fever making it an endemic disease in Sri Lanka.

1. The overuse of antibiotics has led to an increase in Clostridium difficile infection (CDI) cases worldwide, making it a current pandemic. CDI disrupts the gut microbiome and allows the C. difficile bacteria to flourish, causing diarrhea and colitis.
2. CDI spreads easily through contaminated surfaces and facilities. C. difficile spores can survive for months on surfaces and are difficult to eradicate. Healthcare facilities are especially susceptible due to the proximity of patients.
3. Two lineages of C. difficile, FQR1 and FQR2, have developed resistance to antibiotics and have caused major outbreaks globally due to increased international
Asthma & allergic rhinitis
This document discusses atopy, allergic rhinitis, and asthma. It defines atopy as a genetic predisposition to develop IgE-mediated hypersensitivity responses upon exposure to allergens. Allergic rhinitis, or hay fever, is an inflammatory disease of the nasal passages caused by an allergic reaction to airborne allergens like pollen and dust mites. Common symptoms include sneezing, stuffy nose, and runny nose. Asthma is a chronic inflammatory lung disease characterized by reversible airway obstruction, airway inflammation, and hyperresponsiveness to stimuli.

Interactions between rhinitis & asthma
Rhinitis and asthma are linked diseases that often co-exist. They are both chronic inflammatory diseases of the airways that share common triggers and inflammatory pathways. Up to 80% of asthma patients have rhinitis and 40% of rhinitis patients have asthma. Rhinitis is a risk factor for developing asthma and is associated with worse asthma outcomes. Effective treatment of rhinitis can improve asthma control, reducing exacerbations and medication needs. Overall, rhinitis and asthma are considered linked manifestations of the same underlying airway disease process.

This document summarizes several viral diseases that have caused epidemics or pandemics over the past few decades:
1) AIDS/HIV is a virus that attacks the immune system and has caused a global pandemic since being discovered in the 1980s. Over 30 million people are currently living with HIV/AIDS.
2) Chikungunya is an insect-borne virus transmitted by mosquitoes that causes fever and joint pain. It has caused outbreaks with severe illness in recent years.
3) Dengue fever is another mosquito-borne virus that causes fever, rash and joint pains. It has become endemic in over 110 countries and cases have increased dramatically in the last 50 years.
Influenza Viruses
This document summarizes information about influenza and the H1N1 virus. It discusses the virology of influenza, past pandemics, seasonal flu trends, the emergence and characteristics of H1N1, and treatment and vaccination strategies. Regarding H1N1 specifically, it notes that while not especially virulent, it has spread widely due to lack of preexisting immunity in most populations. Looking ahead, a significant second wave is expected in the fall. Vaccination is the recommended strategy to reduce illness burden from this new strain of influenza.

It then provides a brief history of Herpes Simplex Virus, including key discoveries such as it being shown to be infectious in 1893, isolation of the virus in Germany in 1912, and development of the antiviral drug aciclovir in 1977 to treat HSV infections. The document encourages learning more about infectious diseases by joining an online Facebook group.
Influenza
This document summarizes key information about influenza, including its symptoms, transmission, at-risk groups, past pandemics like the 1918 Spanish Flu, and the 2009 H1N1 pandemic. It describes influenza as a viral respiratory infection causing fever, cough, and sore throat. Influenza spreads through respiratory droplets and has caused pandemics when new strains emerge. The 2009 H1N1 pandemic began in Mexico and spread globally within months, ultimately causing over 150,000 deaths worldwide.
Asthma Rhinitis
This document discusses the link between allergic rhinitis (AR) and asthma. It finds that AR and asthma frequently co-exist, with AR often preceding and being a risk factor for developing asthma. The two conditions are considered linked manifestations of the same disease in the upper and lower airways. Both involve similar inflammatory processes and share common triggers. Treating AR can reduce asthma symptoms and risk of exacerbations. The severity of AR is also correlated with asthma severity.
Swine Influenza
In 1743, when disease was presumed to be astral in origin, European newspapers reported on a contagious influence (influenza in Italian) that was being visited on the citizens of Rome. Two hundred years later, Wilson Smith and colleagues would isolate an influenza A virus, one of the members of the orthomyxovirus family. Swine influenza virus (SIV) or S-OIV (swine-origin influenza virus) is any strain of the influenza family of viruses that is endemic in pigs. As of 2009, the known SIV strains include influenza C and the subtypes of influenza A known as H1N1, H1N2, H3N1, H3N2, and H2N3. Swine influenza (also called Pig influenza, swine flu, hog flu and pig flu) is an infection by any one of several types of swine influenza virus. In all, 50 cases are known to have occurred since the first report in medical literature in 1958, which have resulted in a total of six deaths. Of these six people, one was pregnant, one had leukemia, one had Hodgkin disease and two were known to be previously healthy. Despite these apparently low numbers of infections, the true rate of infection may be higher, since most cases only cause a very mild disease, and will probably never be reported or diagnosed. This article presents the scenario of the 2009 H1N1 influenza, popularly known as “swine flu” and the data from inpatient admissions in Indraprastha Apollo Hospitals, Delhi, for the duration October 2009 to January 2010.
Dengue in Sri Lanka - Rivin
Dengue fever has been a major public health issue in Sri Lanka since the 1960s. There are four serotypes of dengue virus present that are transmitted by Aedes aegypti and Aedes albopictus mosquitoes. Climate factors like rainfall patterns contribute to the seasonal peaks in dengue cases. In 2017, Sri Lanka experienced its largest ever dengue outbreak with over 122,000 cases reported. International organizations like WHO and IFRC are supporting Sri Lanka's response through activities like fogging, case management, and health education.
Childhood allergies & their progression
The document discusses childhood allergies and their progression. It notes that globally, allergic rhinitis (AR) affects about 4 in 10 children. In India, the incidence of AR has increased from 22.5% to 27.5% between 1994 and 1999. Family history is a major risk factor for developing allergic diseases. AR can progress and lead to other conditions as part of the "allergy march", including atopic dermatitis, asthma, and others. Nasal congestion is likely the most troublesome symptom for the patient described. AR can negatively impact quality of life and is often comorbid with other disorders like conjunctivitis, sinusitis, and sleep apnea. Treatment of AR
Influenza
Influenza is an acute respiratory disease caused by influenza viruses types A, B, and C. It is characterized by fever, headache, cough, and body aches. It spreads through airborne droplets or contact with contaminated surfaces. Influenza affects people of all ages but has higher mortality rates in young children, elderly adults, and those with pre-existing medical conditions. While most cases are mild, influenza can lead to pneumonia as a complication. Prevention methods include vaccination, good hygiene practices, and isolating infected individuals.

Dengue fever
Dengue is a mosquito-borne viral infection transmitted by Aedes mosquitoes, causing flu-like symptoms. It occasionally develops into a potentially lethal complication known as severe dengue or "break-bone fever". Epidemics occurred as early as the 18th century in Asia, Africa, and North America. There are four types of the dengue virus. While most age groups and both sexes can be affected, children are at higher risk than adults. The disease occurs more frequently during and after the rainy season in India. There is no specific treatment, but fluid intake, rest, and antipyretics are used. A licensed dengue vaccine was approved in 2015 but further analysis found it may increase risk

Low Platelet Count Associated With Dengue Hemorrhagic Fever
Dengue is an infectious mosquito borne disease of tropical regions. There is a drastic change in the demographic characteristics of dengue fever in Pakistan over the past years. Many small studies have been done previously all over the country but the data reported so far regarding demographic, biochemical and hematological parameters of dengue infection is insufficient. This study was undertaken to establish a possible association of decrease in platelet count with bleeding tendency in dengue patients. It is an observational cross-sectional study conducted on 50 sero positive cases during the early days of dengue virus infection (1-7 days) confirmed by Real time PCR (CDC Atlanta) in a tertiary care hospital in Lahore. Patients of both sexes and all age groups were included. The study was approved from ethical committee of King Edward Medical University. 3-5 ml of venous blood was taken from the patients during first 7 days of infection for CBC analysis. Consent was taken from patients or guardian in case of children and proforma was also filled after interviewing the patient. This article assesses the association of severity of disease with age, gender, platelet count and bleeding tendencies in dengue patients. More dengue patients had declined platelet counts

Diagnosis and management of dengue in children (IAP Infectious Diseases Chapter)
Diagnosis and management of dengue in children (IAP Infectious Diseases Chapter)Dr Padmesh Vadakepat
This document provides a review and recommendations on the diagnosis and management of dengue in children. It discusses that dengue is endemic in many parts of Asia and the Americas. The virus is transmitted by mosquitoes Aedes aegypti and Aedes albopictus. Dengue classification has changed from dengue fever and dengue hemorrhagic fever to simply dengue, dengue with warning signs, and severe dengue. Diagnosis involves tests for the NS1 antigen, IgG and IgM antibodies. Treatment depends on severity and can involve outpatient, inpatient or emergency care, monitoring for shock and hemorrhage.surviving sepsis
This document discusses sepsis, including definitions, causes, pathophysiology, diagnosis, and management. It defines sepsis, severe sepsis, and septic shock. Mortality from sepsis is high and increasing. Common causes are bacterial and fungal infections. The pathophysiology involves an excessive host immune response. Diagnosis requires identifying an infection and assessing for organ dysfunction. Management involves early antibiotic treatment, fluid resuscitation, vasopressor support if needed, and treating any infection source. Performance improvement efforts focusing on timely treatment can improve outcomes.

Dengue is a mosquito-borne viral disease that is widespread in tropical and subtropical regions. It affects nearly 100 million people annually. The disease is caused by the dengue virus, which has four serotypes. It is transmitted by the bite of infected Aedes mosquitoes. There is no vaccine available to prevent dengue. Treatment involves fluid replacement and pain management. Prevention focuses on reducing mosquito habitats and biting through the use of insect repellents, bed nets, and larviciding.
Boost efforts to elimiate tuberculosis by 2050
The document discusses tuberculosis (TB) in Europe on World TB Day. It notes that while new TB cases are declining by 5% yearly, efforts need to be strengthened to eliminate TB by 2050. Nearly 1000 new cases still occur daily, and Europe is not on track to halve TB mortality by 2015. Multidrug- and extensively drug-resistant TB remain a major problem, with over half of new cases not being detected or successfully treated. The document calls for putting patients at the center of care, developing new drugs with shorter treatment times, improving diagnostics, and increasing funding to eliminate TB in Europe by 2050.
dengueepidemiology-200501161658.....pptx
This document provides information on dengue epidemiology. It begins with an introduction describing dengue as a rapidly spreading mosquito-borne viral disease. The largest number of cases have been reported in Southeast Asia, the Americas, and the Western Pacific. India has also seen a sharp rise in cases in recent years.
It then covers the epidemiological determinants of dengue including the dengue virus agent with its four serotypes, the Aedes aegypti mosquito vector, and environmental factors such as temperature, rainfall, and urbanization that influence transmission. Case definitions for suspected, probable, and confirmed dengue cases are also outlined.
The document concludes by discussing diagnosis and treatment approaches including the use of NS1

Personal approaches to the treatment of tuberculosis_rus
This document summarizes information about tuberculosis (TB) globally and in Russia. It discusses trends showing that while TB rates are declining in many areas, rates of multidrug-resistant TB (MDR-TB) and co-infection of TB and HIV are rising. In Russia specifically, morbidity of TB has decreased by half since 2000, but rates of MDR-TB and TB-HIV coinfection have increased. The document also reviews TB diagnostic and treatment challenges, including increasing MDR-TB in some regions of Russia. Modern technologies for evaluating TB drug resistance are helping address these challenges.

Dengue Hemorrhagic Fever- Case Study
The document provides information about Dengue Hemorrhagic Fever (DHF), including:
1) DHF is a severe form of dengue virus infection characterized by fever, hemorrhagic phenomena, hepatomegaly and circulatory failure.
2) It is transmitted via the bite of the Aedes aegypti mosquito, which breeds in stagnant water and exhibits daytime biting behavior.
3) There is no vaccine currently available to prevent DHF, and prevention relies on mosquito control to reduce transmission.
World TB Day 2017 - presentation
TB/HIV co-infections have risen sharply across Europe between 2011-2015, threatening progress made in reducing TB cases. While TB deaths and cases have decreased and treatment success has increased for most groups, TB/HIV deaths and cases are rising significantly. Drug-resistant TB also remains a major problem, with over half of cases in Europe being multi-drug resistant and about a quarter being extensively drug resistant. Increased efforts are needed across Europe to curb the rise of TB/HIV and improve diagnosis and treatment of drug resistant TB.

The debris of the ‘last major merger’ is dynamically young
The Milky Way’s (MW) inner stellar halo contains an [Fe/H]-rich component with highly eccentric orbits, often referred to as the
‘last major merger.’ Hypotheses for the origin of this component include Gaia-Sausage/Enceladus (GSE), where the progenitor
collided with the MW proto-disc 8–11 Gyr ago, and the Virgo Radial Merger (VRM), where the progenitor collided with the
MW disc within the last 3 Gyr. These two scenarios make different predictions about observable structure in local phase space,
because the morphology of debris depends on how long it has had to phase mix. The recently identified phase-space folds in Gaia
DR3 have positive caustic velocities, making them fundamentally different than the phase-mixed chevrons found in simulations
at late times. Roughly 20 per cent of the stars in the prograde local stellar halo are associated with the observed caustics. Based
on a simple phase-mixing model, the observed number of caustics are consistent with a merger that occurred 1–2 Gyr ago.
We also compare the observed phase-space distribution to FIRE-2 Latte simulations of GSE-like mergers, using a quantitative
measurement of phase mixing (2D causticality). The observed local phase-space distribution best matches the simulated data
1–2 Gyr after collision, and certainly not later than 3 Gyr. This is further evidence that the progenitor of the ‘last major merger’
did not collide with the MW proto-disc at early times, as is thought for the GSE, but instead collided with the MW disc within
the last few Gyr, consistent with the body of work surrounding the VRM.
Nucleophilic Addition of carbonyl compounds.pptx
Nucleophilic addition is the most important reaction of carbonyls. Not just aldehydes and ketones, but also carboxylic acid derivatives in general.
Carbonyls undergo addition reactions with a large range of nucleophiles.
Comparing the relative basicity of the nucleophile and the product is extremely helpful in determining how reversible the addition reaction is. Reactions with Grignards and hydrides are irreversible. Reactions with weak bases like halides and carboxylates generally don’t happen.
Electronic effects (inductive effects, electron donation) have a large impact on reactivity.
Large groups adjacent to the carbonyl will slow the rate of reaction.
Neutral nucleophiles can also add to carbonyls, although their additions are generally slower and more reversible. Acid catalysis is sometimes employed to increase the rate of addition.

The binding of cosmological structures by massless topological defects
Assuming spherical symmetry and weak field, it is shown that if one solves the Poisson equation or the Einstein field
equations sourced by a topological defect, i.e. a singularity of a very specific form, the result is a localized gravitational
field capable of driving flat rotation (i.e. Keplerian circular orbits at a constant speed for all radii) of test masses on a thin
spherical shell without any underlying mass. Moreover, a large-scale structure which exploits this solution by assembling
concentrically a number of such topological defects can establish a flat stellar or galactic rotation curve, and can also deflect
light in the same manner as an equipotential (isothermal) sphere. Thus, the need for dark matter or modified gravity theory is
mitigated, at least in part.

Presented at June 6-7 Texas Alliance of Groundwater Districts Business MeetingPhenomics assisted breeding in crop improvement
As the population is increasing and will reach about 9 billion upto 2050. Also due to climate change, it is difficult to meet the food requirement of such a large population. Facing the challenges presented by resource shortages, climate
change, and increasing global population, crop yield and quality need to be improved in a sustainable way over the coming decades. Genetic improvement by breeding is the best way to increase crop productivity. With the rapid progression of functional
genomics, an increasing number of crop genomes have been sequenced and dozens of genes influencing key agronomic traits have been identified. However, current genome sequence information has not been adequately exploited for understanding
the complex characteristics of multiple gene, owing to a lack of crop phenotypic data. Efficient, automatic, and accurate technologies and platforms that can capture phenotypic data that can
be linked to genomics information for crop improvement at all growth stages have become as important as genotyping. Thus,
high-throughput phenotyping has become the major bottleneck restricting crop breeding. Plant phenomics has been defined as the high-throughput, accurate acquisition and analysis of multi-dimensional phenotypes
during crop growing stages at the organism level, including the cell, tissue, organ, individual plant, plot, and field levels. With the rapid development of novel sensors, imaging technology,
and analysis methods, numerous infrastructure platforms have been developed for phenotyping.
