Computers in medical education dr. rodolfo rafaelRodolfo Rafael
The goals of medical education are to provide students and graduate clinicians specific facts and information, to teach strategies for applying this knowledge appropriately to the situations that arise in medical practice, and to encourage the development of skills necessary to acquire new knowledge over a lifetime of practice. Students must learn about physiological processes and must understand the relationships between their observations and these underlying processes. They must learn to perform medical procedures, and they must understand the effects of different interventions on health outcomes. Also, the student must learn “softer” skills and knowledge, such as interpersonal and interviewing skills and the ethics of medical care. Medical school faculty employs a variety of strategies for teaching, ranging from the one-way, lecture-based transmission of information to the interactive, Socratic method of instruction. In general, we can view the teaching process as the presentation of a situation or a body of facts that contains the essential knowledge that students should learn; the explanations of what the important concepts and
relationships are, how they can be derived, and why they are important; and the strategy for guiding interaction with a patient.
Female reproductive functions can be divided into two major phases:
preparation of the female body for conception and pregnancy and
(2) the period of pregnancy itself.
This lecture is concerned with preparation of the female body for pregnancy, and presents the physiology of pregnancy and childbirth
Growth of the fetus begins soon after fertilization, when the first cell division occurs.
Cell division, hypertrophy, and differentiation are highly coordinated events that result in the growth and development of specialized organ systems.
The fetus, fetal membranes, and placenta develop and function as a unit throughout pregnancy, and their development is interdependent or symbiotic.
The growth trajectory of fetal mass is relatively flat during the first trimester, increases linearly at the beginning of the second trimester, and rises rapidly during the third trimester.
Asthma is a serious public health problem throughout the world, affecting people of all ages. When uncontrolled, asthma can place severe limits on daily life, and is sometimes fatal.

RESULTS: Overall life span (LS) was 2252.1±1742.5 days and cumulative 5-year survival (5YS) reached 73.2%, 10 years – 64.8%, 20 years – 42.5%. 513 LCP lived more than 5 years (LS=3124.6±1525.6 days), 148 LCP – more than 10 years (LS=5054.4±1504.1 days).199 LCP died because of LC (LS=562.7±374.5 days). 5YS of LCP after bi/lobectomies was significantly superior in comparison with LCP after pneumonectomies (78.1% vs.63.7%, P=0.00001 by log-rank test). AT significantly improved 5YS (66.3% vs. 34.8%) (P=0.00000 by log-rank test) only for LCP with N1-2. Cox modeling displayed that 5YS of LCP significantly depended on: phase transition (PT) early-invasive LC in terms of synergetics, PT N0—N12, cell ratio factors (ratio between cancer cells- CC and blood cells subpopulations), G1-3, histology, glucose, AT, blood cell circuit, prothrombin index, heparin tolerance, recalcification time (P=0.000-0.038). Neural networks, genetic algorithm selection and bootstrap simulation revealed relationships between 5YS and PT early-invasive LC (rank=1), PT N0—N12 (rank=2), thrombocytes/CC (3), erythrocytes/CC (4), eosinophils/CC (5), healthy cells/CC (6), lymphocytes/CC (7), segmented neutrophils/CC (8), stick neutrophils/CC (9), monocytes/CC (10); leucocytes/CC (11). Correct prediction of 5YS was 100% by neural networks computing (area under ROC curve=1.0; error=0.0).
CONCLUSIONS: 5YS of LCP after radical procedures significantly depended on: 1) PT early-invasive cancer; 2) PT N0--N12; 3) cell ratio factors; 4) blood cell circuit; 5) biochemical factors; 6) hemostasis system; 7) AT; 8) LC characteristics; 9) LC cell dynamics; 10) surgery type: lobectomy/pneumonectomy; 11) anthropometric data. Optimal diagnosis and treatment strategies for LC are: 1) screening and early detection of LC; 2) availability of experienced thoracic surgeons because of complexity of radical procedures; 3) aggressive en block surgery and adequate lymph node dissection for completeness; 4) precise prediction; 5) adjuvant chemoimmunoradiotherapy for LCP with unfavorable prognosis.

Flu Vaccine Alert in Bangalore Karnatakaaddon Scans
As flu season approaches, health officials in Bangalore, Karnataka, are urging residents to get their flu vaccinations. The seasonal flu, while common, can lead to severe health complications, particularly for vulnerable populations such as young children, the elderly, and those with underlying health conditions.
Dr. Vidisha Kumari, a leading epidemiologist in Bangalore, emphasizes the importance of getting vaccinated. "The flu vaccine is our best defense against the influenza virus. It not only protects individuals but also helps prevent the spread of the virus in our communities," he says.
This year, the flu season is expected to coincide with a potential increase in other respiratory illnesses. The Karnataka Health Department has launched an awareness campaign highlighting the significance of flu vaccinations. They have set up multiple vaccination centers across Bangalore, making it convenient for residents to receive their shots.
To encourage widespread vaccination, the government is also collaborating with local schools, workplaces, and community centers to facilitate vaccination drives. Special attention is being given to ensuring that the vaccine is accessible to all, including marginalized communities who may have limited access to healthcare.
Residents are reminded that the flu vaccine is safe and effective. Common side effects are mild and may include soreness at the injection site, mild fever, or muscle aches. These side effects are generally short-lived and far less severe than the flu itself.
Healthcare providers are also stressing the importance of continuing COVID-19 precautions. Wearing masks, practicing good hand hygiene, and maintaining social distancing are still crucial, especially in crowded places.
Protect yourself and your loved ones by getting vaccinated. Together, we can help keep Bangalore healthy and safe this flu season. For more information on vaccination centers and schedules, residents can visit the Karnataka Health Department’s official website or follow their social media pages.
Stay informed, stay safe, and get your flu shot today!

Ethanol (CH3CH2OH), or beverage alcohol, is a two-carbon alcohol
that is rapidly distributed in the body and brain. Ethanol alters many
neurochemical systems and has rewarding and addictive properties. It
is the oldest recreational drug and likely contributes to more morbidity,
mortality, and public health costs than all illicit drugs combined. The
5th edition of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders
(DSM-5) integrates alcohol abuse and alcohol dependence into a single
disorder called alcohol use disorder (AUD), with mild, moderate,
and severe subclassifications (American Psychiatric Association, 2013).
In the DSM-5, all types of substance abuse and dependence have been
combined into a single substance use disorder (SUD) on a continuum
from mild to severe. A diagnosis of AUD requires that at least two of
the 11 DSM-5 behaviors be present within a 12-month period (mild
AUD: 2–3 criteria; moderate AUD: 4–5 criteria; severe AUD: 6–11 criteria).
The four main behavioral effects of AUD are impaired control over
drinking, negative social consequences, risky use, and altered physiological
effects (tolerance, withdrawal). This chapter presents an overview
of the prevalence and harmful consequences of AUD in the U.S.,
the systemic nature of the disease, neurocircuitry and stages of AUD,
comorbidities, fetal alcohol spectrum disorders, genetic risk factors, and
pharmacotherapies for AUD.

5. Medical advises regarding the use of Pediatric Milk Formula have led to an array of diseases (even degenerative diseases) in children. Commercial formulas are low in saturated fats and soy formulas are devoid of cholesterol. A recent study linked low-fat diets with failure to thrive in children. Pediatrics, Mar 1994, 93:3:438-443 The nonfat milk-based formula was eventually considered too dangerous to continue. Of the various formulas given, the whole cow's-milk formula produced the healthiest infants. American Journal of Clinical Nutrition, Vol. 31 (1978), p. 1006. Infants on pediatric formulas have lower resistance to enteric pathogens due to low levels of glycoproteins which has shown to be the preferred substrate of some enteric microflora responsible for preventing enteric pathogen colonization. Fedorka-Cray PJ, et al, J Food Prot 1999; 62:1376-1380

7. Medical advises regarding drastic lowering of Cholesterol has led to higher incidence of cancer, hepatitis, car accidents, myopathies, neuropathies and even depression. Br. Med. J 1994 In contrast to clinical trials using statin drugs, which suggest that cholesterol lowering from high to moderate levels is safe, many, but not all, prospective studies report higher non-atherosclerotic disease rates in people with low serum total cholesterol. ` Am J Epidemiol 2000 Apr 15;151(8):748-51 Low serum cholesterol has been associated with an increased risk of cancer mortality. Am J Epidemiol 2000 Apr 15;151(8):739-47 Association of low plasma cholesterol with mortality for cancer at various sites in men: 17-year follow-up of the prospective Basel study. Am J Clin Nutr 2000 Feb;71(2):569-74
8. Medical advises regarding eating of Low Fat/High Carbo Diet could actually be counter-productive to health. High intake of rapidly digested & absorbed carbohydrates increases the risk of ischemic heart disease, especially in overweight women prone to insulin resistance. Am J Clin Nutr 2002 Mar;75(3):492-8 Blood tests on men enrolled in diets with aggressive fat restriction revealed a rise in triglyceride levels, along with a drop in levels of HDL cholesterol. Journal of the American Medical Association (1997;278(18):1509-1515) Low-fat/high carbohydrate diets place us at greater risk for heart disease, cancer , and diabetes. F. Jeppesen, et al. Am Jnl Clin Nutr, 1997; 65:1027-1033; S. Francheschi, et al.Inter J Canc, 1997, 72:56-61 G Reaven, et al. Diabetes Care, 1989, 12:94-101
9. Medical advises regarding the use of various Drugs have been linked with liver damage, Heart failure, kidney damage, stroke, etc. The use of NSAIDs caused a greater than 10-fold increase in the risk of congestive heart failure (CHF) in patients with a history of heart disease. In those without a history of heart disease, the use of NSAIDs still increased the risk by 60%. Archives of Internal Medicine June 2000; 160: 777-784. About 15% of the people on dialysis machine today are there as a result of the damage that aspirin and/or NSAIDS did to their kidneys. New York Times January 29, 2002 People with high levels of the hormone insulin in their blood are also likely to have high levels of homocysteine, a substance that appears to raise the risk of heart disease, stroke, & birth defects, as well as possibly other adverse effects as well. Diabetes Care 2000;23:1348-1352 Beta-blockers are the only blood pressure drugs linked to diabetes. The New England Journal of Medicine 2000
10. IMMUNIZATION and/or VACCINATION have been linked with brain damage, neuro- logical disorders, lowered IQ, ADD, learning disabilities, and autism. Children die at a rate 8 times greater than normal within three days after getting a DPT vaccination. Am J of Epidemiol, 1992 Diabetes epidemic has been associated with Hepa –B, Small pox, Mumps and other vaccines. Diabetes Care 1997 May; 20(5):767-772. Neurological Complications in Children From Smallpox Vaccination, DPT, measles and other vaccines. Pediatrics 1988 Mar;81(3):345-349.

Acta Paediatr Scand 1989 Mar;78(2):291-295.
11. Where do we turn now for the answer? Who will deliver us from these diseases plaguing us? God thunders - “My people are destroyed from lack of knowledge” (Hosea 4:6)
12. For we have not listened to Him!!! “ If you diligently heed the voice of the Lord your God and do what is right in His sight, give ear to His commandments and keep all His statutes, I will put none of the diseases on you w/c I have brought on the Egyptians, for I am the Lord who heals you .” Exodus 15:26 Is this still applicable to us? “ For I am the Lord, I do not change.” Malachi 3:6 “ Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today and forever.” Hebrews 13:8
13. “ I am the WAY, the TRUTH, and the LIFE” John 14:6 The truth about health can be found in His Words. Yes, the foundation of HEALTH as well as Disease PREVENTION is in “ THE WORD OF GOD”
14. “ Along the bank of the river, on this side and that will grow all kinds of trees used for food … their fruit will be for food, and their leaves for medicine.” Ezekiel 47:12 “ In the middle of its street, and on either side of the river, was the tree of life, which bore twelve fruits, each tree yielding its fruit every month. The leaves of the tree were for the healing of the nations. ” Revelation 22:2
15. What is it in the leaves that has something to do with healing? Basically the root cause of all diseases is Oxidative Damage , whether it be cancer, heart attack, kidney problem, respiratory, Diseases, etc.

21. The leaves also contain . . . VITAMINS, MINERALS AND ENZYMES The leaves contain major and minor minerals which act as enzyme co-factors, and vitamin that converts into coenzymes in the body. Both enzyme cofactors and coenzymes are needed for enzymatic repair and synthesis to proceed in the human body.
22.
23. DIETARY FIBERS 2. Insoluble fiber appears to speed the passage of foods through the stomach and intestines. * Functions of Insoluble Fiber - move bulk through the intestines - control and balance the pH (acidity) in the intestines * Benefits of Insoluble Fiber - promote regular bowel movement and prevent constipation - remove toxic waste through colon in less time - help prevent colon cancer by keeping an optimal pH in intestines to prevent microbes from producing cancerous substances
24. The leaves also contain . . . BLOOD THINNER and Vitamin K Natural aspirin or salicylate is also present in some leaves. This can prevent blood clotting. But there are those that contain high Vitamin K which is also good for those who are prone to bleeding.
27. To get the desired effects, oftentimes we need to consume so much quantities of leaves! So, the Lord God transfer the HEALING POWER of the leaves to ruminant animals that grazed on them. These include their meats, fats, eggs and milk. And even honey from honeybees.
28. What type of meat should we eat? “ These are the animals which you may eat among all the beasts that are on the earth: Among the beasts, whatever divides the hoof, having cloven hooves and chewing the cud - that you may eat.” (Leviticus 11:2-3) Examples are ruminants such as: Sheep, goat, cow, carabao, lamb
29. What type of meat should we eat? “ These are the animals which you may eat among all the beasts that are on the earth: Among the beasts, whatever divides the hoof, having cloven hooves and chewing the cud - that you may eat.” (Leviticus 11:2-3) Examples are ruminants such as: Sheep, goat, cow, carabao, lamb
30. What part should be eaten? “… the fat tail and the fat that covers the entrails, the two kidneys and the fat that is on them by the flanks, and the fatty lobe attached to the liver above the kidneys , you shall remove.” Leveticus 7:3-4 “ You shall not eat any fat, of ox or sheep or goat.…” Leviticus 11:2-3 Hard fat (beef tallow or suet) is a repository for pesticide residue, DDT & toxins, certain hormones like DES. Certain fat is allowed like the bone marrow and marbled fat. Isaiah 25:6 “And in this mountain the Lord of host will make for all people a feast of choice pieces … of fat things full of marrow ….”

34. MILK & DAIRY PRODUCTS “ and that you may prolong your days in the land which the Lord swore to give your fathers, to them and their descendants, a land flowing with milk and honey.” Deuteronomy 11:9 “… Behold, the virgin shall conceive and bear a Son, and shall call His name Immanuel. Curds and honey He shall eat, that He may know to refuse the evil and choose the good. ” Isaiah 7:14-15 “ Then the Lord appeared to him by the terebinth tree … And Abraham ran to the herd, took a tender and good calf … So he took butter and milk and the calf which he prepared and set before them; … and they ate . ” Genesis 18:1, 7-8
35. MILK & DAIRY PRODUCTS are essential for health Isaiah 55:1-2 “Come, buy and eat. Yes, come, buy wine and milk …Why do you spend money…And your wages for what does not satisfy… eat what is good.”
36. MILK (FULL CREAM) * a complete food * an excellent source of vitamins and minerals * a natural tranquilizer (butyric acid in cream converts to GABA) * a component of cell membrane

47. Transfer Factors in Milk & Egg: “ Transfer factors are tiny molecules found in colostrum which provide "immune knowledge" from a mother's immune system to her baby used in recognizing and fighting outside threats. By transferring information from cell to cell, transfer factors serve as "teachers" to the new cells, ensuring a strong immune system capable of surviving, even thriving, in its new environment. These molecules were first discovered in the late 40's by Dr. H. Sherwood Lawrence. All mammals produce transfer factor, but scientists prefer to work with chicken and normal bovine colostrum.” Dr. Rob Robertson Director of Emergency Services Western Baptist Hospital in Paducah, KY.

Rule #3: ONLY CLEAN FOOD must be eaten “ And these you regard as an abomination among the birds; they shall not be eaten, they are an abomination: The eagle, the vulture, the buzzard, the kite, the falcon, the raven, the ostrich, owls, seagull, hawks, storks, heron...the bat.” (Leviticus 11:13-19) Clean meat is high in protein , essential amino acids, B-complex vitamins, omega-3 fatty acid; lowest in omega- 6 fatty acid. Unclean meat like pork is high in omega-6 fatty acid; carrier of viruses and parasites like tapeworm, trichinella, etc. Certain flu virus which are non-virulent can become virulent when combined with a bird virus in the pork flesh. Ex. Hongkong flu virus. RBN:02/01
74. Rule #3: ONLY CLEAN FOOD must be eaten “ Whatever in the water does not have fins and scales – that shall be an abomination to you.” (Leviticus 11:12) Leviticus 11:9-10 says, “These you may eat of all that are in the water; Whatever in the water that has fins and scales, whether in the seas or in the rivers – that you may eat. But all in the seas or in the rivers that do not have fins and scales, all that move in the water or any living thing which is in the water, they are detestable.” Examples of this are: catfish, puffer fish, stingray, eel, swordfish, crabs, lobsters, frogs, clams, shark, squid These fish are usually high in toxins and other contaminants.
