8 Surprising Reasons To Meditate 40 Minutes A Day That Can Change Your Life.pptxHolistified Wellness
We’re talking about Vedic Meditation, a form of meditation that has been around for at least 5,000 years. Back then, the people who lived in the Indus Valley, now known as India and Pakistan, practised meditation as a fundamental part of daily life. This knowledge that has given us yoga and Ayurveda, was known as Veda, hence the name Vedic. And though there are some written records, the practice has been passed down verbally from generation to generation.
Cell Therapy Expansion and Challenges in Autoimmune DiseaseHealth Advances
There is increasing confidence that cell therapies will soon play a role in the treatment of autoimmune disorders, but the extent of this impact remains to be seen. Early readouts on autologous CAR-Ts in lupus are encouraging, but manufacturing and cost limitations are likely to restrict access to highly refractory patients. Allogeneic CAR-Ts have the potential to broaden access to earlier lines of treatment due to their inherent cost benefits, however they will need to demonstrate comparable or improved efficacy to established modalities.
In addition to infrastructure and capacity constraints, CAR-Ts face a very different risk-benefit dynamic in autoimmune compared to oncology, highlighting the need for tolerable therapies with low adverse event risk. CAR-NK and Treg-based therapies are also being developed in certain autoimmune disorders and may demonstrate favorable safety profiles. Several novel non-cell therapies such as bispecific antibodies, nanobodies, and RNAi drugs, may also offer future alternative competitive solutions with variable value propositions.
Widespread adoption of cell therapies will not only require strong efficacy and safety data, but also adapted pricing and access strategies. At oncology-based price points, CAR-Ts are unlikely to achieve broad market access in autoimmune disorders, with eligible patient populations that are potentially orders of magnitude greater than the number of currently addressable cancer patients. Developers have made strides towards reducing cell therapy COGS while improving manufacturing efficiency, but payors will inevitably restrict access until more sustainable pricing is achieved.
Despite these headwinds, industry leaders and investors remain confident that cell therapies are poised to address significant unmet need in patients suffering from autoimmune disorders. However, the extent of this impact on the treatment landscape remains to be seen, as the industry rapidly approaches an inflection point.

It provides a
theoretical basis for the prevention, diagnosis
and treatment.
9. Pathogenesis of disease
Pathogenesis of disease refers to the rules and
mechanisms underlying the development or evolution of the
diseases.
General rules for pathogenesis of disease
Disruption of homeostasis
If homeostasis is disrupted by a variety of harmful
agents, the body cannot function optimally, and illness
may occur.
46
13. Summary
13
1.Pathophysiology is one of basic medical sciences which
study the rules of origin and evolution of diseases and
the underlying mechanisms --- “the physiology of
disease”.
2. Pathophysiology focuses on the alterations in function
and metabolism of the body and the mechanisms
underlying the development of diseases.
3. Pathophysiology plays an important role in bridge
linking basic medical sciences to clinical medicine.
15. Basic Concepts
Health
⮚No diseases or infirmity. (Physical or mental weakness).
⮚A state of complete well-being of all aspects: physical,
mental, social.
Disease
⮚ Disease is an abnormal life process caused by certain
pathogenic factors, deviation from the normal status
including structure, function or metabolism.
15
17. ⮚Disease is a disordered state of the body due to
pathogenic agents-host interactions.
Homeostasis: the process that the internal
environment of an organism tends to remain
balanced and stable, which is required for
optimum functioning.
⮚ Disease can be viewed as a disturbance of
homeostasis.
17
18. Manifestations of diseases:
18
1) Symptom: a subjective complaint
2) Sign: a manifestation that is noted by an
observer, doctor or nurse, through physical
examination, e.g. an elevated body temperature.
3) Laboratory finding: alterations found by
laboratory test, X-ray examination (routine or
CT), electrocardiogram (ECG),
ultrasonography, magnetic resonance imaging
(MRI), etc.
19. Sub-health
There is a situation, in which the person does
not show specific symptoms and signs of illness,
but lives a low-quality of life both physically
and mentally; this is called “sub-health”.
19
21. Two very important concepts
21
1) Pathological Process
A series of structural, functional and metabolic
changes that appear in different diseases, e.g.
fever, inflammation, edema, etc.
22. Pathological Process and Disease
22
Disease Cause Site Fundamental
Pathological Process
Pneumonia Pneumococcus Lung Fever, inflammation,
hypoxia, acid-base
disturbances, shock
Dysentery Dysentery
bacilli
Intestine Fever, inflammation,
water and electrolytes
disturbances, acid-base
disturbances, shock
Epidemic
meningitis
Meningococcus Meninges Fever, inflammation,
DIC, shock
23. Shocks
What are the 4 types of shocks?
Hypovolemic shock (caused by too little blood
volume).
Anaphylactic shock (caused by allergic reaction).
Septic shock (due to infections)
Neurogenic shock (caused by damage to the nervous
system)
Shock is a critical condition brought on by the sudden drop in
blood flow through the body.
Shock may result from trauma, stroke, blood loss, an allergic reaction,
severe infection, poisoning, severe burns or other causes. When a
person is in shock, his or her organs aren't getting enough blood or
oxygen.
24. 2) Syndrome
A set of signs and symptoms that occur
together and are characteristics of a group of
diseases or a specific disease, e.g. MS, AIDS
etc.
24
25. Etiology of Disease
25
Etiology is a science to study the factors
associated with or involved in initiation and
development of diseases. According to their
different roles in the development of diseases,
these pathogenic factors are classified into
cause of disease and conditional factors.
26. Causes of diseases are the factors that provoke
or cause the particular disease. It determines
the characteristics of the disease and is
absolutely necessary for disease to occur.
Conditional factors are the factors that do not
cause disease directly but rather influence the
pathogenesis of the disease.
26
27. Precipitating factors belong to conditional
factors that promote the development of
diseases by enhancing the roles of cause of
diseases or susceptibility of the body to diseases.
27
28. e.g. Infection, arrhythmias, pregnancy, water-
electrolytes and acid-base disturbances are
precipitating factors of heart failure
Tubercle bacillus is the cause of tuberculosis.
Not all people who inhale the organism will
suffer from pulmonary tuberculosis, which
occurs in malnutrition, over fatigue and long-
term depress.
28
29. Causes of diseases
Extrinsic Factors Biological agents
Physical factors
Chemical factors
Nutritional factors
Pathogenic factors
Intrinsic Factors Genetic factors
Congenital factors
Immunological factors
Psychological factors
Conditional factors Body condition
(predisposing factors) Nature condition
Social condition
Precipitating factors
of diseases
45
31. Causes of Disease
31
1) Biological agents bacteria, viruses,
2) Physical factors: trauma and fracture, heatstroke.
3) Chemical factors
Corrosive chemicals such as strong acid and bases can
destroy cells at the site of contact. Cell-injurious chemicals are
often called toxic substances or poison. They induce tissue
and cell damage when they enter the body through certain
pathways and reach a sufficient amount. These called
intoxication or poisoning. The toxic substances often act on
specific cells or organs, e.g. CO poisoning.
Electrical injuries
32. 4) Nutritional factors
Excesses: high lipids and carbohydrates
diet obesity, atherosclerosis, diabetes
Deficiencies: lack of certain elements in diet
(1) Vitamin B: beriberi
(2) Vitamin A: night blindness
(3) Vitamin C: scurvy
(4) Vitamin D: rickets
32
33. Intrinsic Factors
1) Genetic factors
Altered genetic material passed from parent to offspring is
called genetic factors, which is classified into three
groups.
Genetic disorders
⮚Chromosome disorders: numerical and structural
abnormalities of chromosome.
⮚Single-gene disorders: the defect is caused by a single
defective or mutant gene.
⮚ Multifactorial inheritance: polygenetic disorder. 33
36. Inherited disease: disease caused by altered
genetic material, either single gene mutation or
chromosome aberrations. e.g. color blindness,
Albinism, Down syndrome.
37
37. Disorder of multifactorial inheritance result from a
combination of the multiple gene variations with
environmental factors. Therefore the disease on phenotype are
not hereditary, but these diseases do have a genetic background
(genetic susceptibility), such as congenital heart disease, cleft
lip, coronary artery disease and hypertension.
38
38. Genetic predisposition (genetic susceptibility):
a state of body favorable to or showing a
tendency to certain diseases because of
polygenetic abnormalities.
39
39. 2) Congenital factors
40
Environment factors that occurred during
embryonic or fetal development are called congenital
factors, including the physiologic status of the mother
(maternal disease) and teratogenic agents (infections or
drugs taken during pregnancy), which acts on the embryo
or fetus, causing abnormalities in form or function.
Diseases caused by congenital factors
called congenital disease. e.g. congenital syphilis.
40. 3) Immunological factors
Although the immune response is a normal protective
mechanism, it may cause disease while the response is
deficient (immunodeficiency disease), inappropriately
strong (allergy or hypersensitivity----penicillin), or
misdirected (autoimmune disease----).
41
41. 4) Psychological factors
Anxiety, strong or persistant psychological stimulation
or stress may lead to mental illness and may be related
to some disease such as:
hypertension, peptic ulcer (duodenal ulcer), and
coronary heart disease.
42
42. - Conditional Factors
43
1) Body’s condition: age, sex, race; physical
training, mental condition, fatigue, smoking,
lifestyle.
2) Nature condition: weather condition and
geographical environment influence some
epidemical diseases.
3) Social condition: labor and hygiene
conditions----occupational diseases, social
life events----person’s mood and life pattern.
43. Reversal role of cause and result
The cause of the disease lead to a result, which can
be another cause of the disease in the evolution
process.

Recovery
49
46. 1 Complete recovery
⮚The alterations of the function, metabolism
and structure of the body, which appeared in
disease, are perfectly restored.
⮚The signs and symptoms of the disease are
disappear entirely.
53
47. 2. Incomplete recovery
⮚The main symptoms are absent.
⮚Some pathological changes are still present in the body.
⮚It is brought about by the compensatory response to
maintain a relatively normal life activity.
--e.g. Heart disease patients.
54
49. Definition of brain death
Prolonged irreversible cessation of all brain functions,
including the brain stem.
Diagnosis of Death
The bases for demonstrating brain death are the
absence of brain stem reflexes, absence of cortical activity
and demonstration of irreversibility of the state.
56
50. Criteria indicating brain death
57
◆ Irreversible coma and cerebral
unresponsiveness: complete lack of cerebral
response to any form of external excitation.
◆ Absence of all brain stem reflexes: It
includes the absences of pupilary reflex,
corneal reflex, cough reflex and swallowing
reflex.
◆ Cessation of spontaneous respiration
51.
52. ◆Absence of any electrical activity of brain
indicated by EEG (electroencephalogram)
for at least 6 hours.
58
◆ Cessation of cerebral circulation
53. Irreversible cessation of all brain functions, including the
brain stem is called brain death.
The bases for determine it are absence of cortical activity,
absence of brain stem reflexes, and demonstration of
irreversibility of the state.
62
54. Senescence (Aging)
54
Aging is a natural, lifelong process. There
is a general decline in the structure and
function of the body with advancing age,
resulting in a decreased reserve capacity of
the various organ systems. This results in a
reduction of homeostatic capabilities, making
the older adult more vulnerable to stressors
such as illness, surgery, medical administration,
and environmental changes.
55. ⯎Experimental study Reproduce disease model i n
animals, isolated organs and cells, and observe or
perform something.
⯎Clinical study Observe directly the patient’s symptom,
laboratory testing, the rules of evolution; study the
treatment and prognosis.
⯎Epidemiological study Study the cause or conditional
factors, risk factors, rules of development of some
infective diseases
