Std's diseases data sheet
This document provides information about several common sexually transmitted diseases (STDs), including their causes, symptoms, and treatments. It describes bacterial STDs like gonorrhea and syphilis, which can be cured with antibiotics but often have no symptoms so go untreated. It also discusses viral STDs such as HIV/AIDS, genital herpes, and HPV. Some STDs caused by protists or arthropods are also mentioned, such as trichomoniasis caused by a protist and crab lice infections. The document emphasizes that STDs are a serious global health problem transmitted primarily through sexual contact.
Shingles
Shingles, also known as herpes zoster, is a
disease that affects an estimated 1 million people in the United States each
year.
Although it is most common in people over
age 50, if you have had chickenpox, you are at risk for developing shingles.
Shingles is also more common in people with weakened immune systems from HIV
infection, chemotherapy or radiation treatment, transplant operations, and
stress.
Mumps
Mumps is caused by a paramyxovirus that typically presents as swelling of the parotid or other salivary glands. It is spread through respiratory droplets and saliva. While most infections are asymptomatic or mild, complications can include orchitis, meningitis, and deafness. Diagnosis is made through PCR detection of viral RNA or serology. Treatment is supportive and includes analgesics. Vaccination with the live attenuated Jeryl Lynn strain as part of the MMR vaccine provides around 90% protection with two doses and has significantly reduced mumps cases worldwide.
Polio
This document provides information on poliomyelitis (polio), including:
- Polio is caused by the poliovirus infecting the spinal cord, which can lead to paralysis. It was first described in the late 18th century.
- There are three poliovirus serotypes. The virus enters through the mouth and replicates in the gastrointestinal tract before potentially infecting the central nervous system.
- Most polio infections are asymptomatic, but it can cause paralysis in under 1% of cases. Effective vaccines were developed in the 1950s which led to a dramatic decline in polio cases globally.
Acute herpetic gingivostomatitis
The document discusses acute herpetic gingivostomatitis caused by the herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1). It notes that HSV-1 is highly prevalent, infecting over 70% of Americans, and transmission usually occurs in early childhood. Young children between ages 2-4 are most susceptible after maternal antibody levels decline. While many HSV-1 infections are asymptomatic, the most common clinical manifestation in young children is primary herpetic gingivostomatitis (PHGS), occurring in 25-30% of infected children. The virus spreads easily among young children through contact with saliva, toys, or utensils.
Chickenpox
Chickenpox is caused by the varicella zoster virus and presents as a red, itchy rash all over the body. It most commonly affects children between ages 4-12, especially in warmer months. Symptoms include fever, abdominal pain, and sore throat. While the virus is contagious before the rash appears, it spreads through direct contact with the rash. Treatment focuses on rest, nail cutting to prevent infection, and anti-itch creams. A vaccine using a weakened virus can protect children under 13 who have not had chickenpox.
HIV & other Opportunistic Infections
- Opportunistic infections (OIs) are infections that occur more frequently and are more severe in individuals with weakened immune systems, including those with HIV. Common OIs include Pneumocystis pneumonia, tuberculosis, and infections caused by fungi such as Candida and Cryptococcus.
- As HIV infection progresses and the CD4 count declines below 200 cells/mm3, individuals are at greatest risk for developing OIs. However, some OIs can occur at CD4 counts below 500 cells/mm3.
- While OIs were more common in the early years of the HIV epidemic before effective antiretroviral therapy, many people with HIV still develop OIs if they are unaware of their
Chicken pox jenny leach
The document discusses chickenpox, caused by the varicella-zoster virus. It is transmitted through coughing, sneezing or touching blister fluid. Symptoms include itchy blisters on the face, trunk and scalp, as well as fever, vomiting and diarrhea. Chickenpox lasts 5-10 days and causes an itchy rash. Most cases can be treated at home with calamine lotion or oatmeal baths. A vaccine can prevent chickenpox.

Ebola pwpnt(2)
Ebola Hemorrhagic Fever is a deadly disease caused by the Ebola virus, which is transmitted through contact with infected body fluids and is fatal in around 90% of cases. The virus primarily affects humans and nonhuman primates in certain African countries such as the Democratic Republic of Congo. There are five identified subtypes of the Ebola virus that can cause disease in humans. The disease progresses rapidly and symptoms range from fever and muscle aches to severe internal and external bleeding. Currently there is no vaccine or cure for Ebola, though supportive care and isolation of infected individuals are used to treat the disease.
Cytomegalo vrius
Cytomegalovirus (CMV) is a common virus. Once infected, your body retains the virus for life. Most people don't know they have CMV because it rarely causes problems in healthy people.
If you're pregnant or if your immune system is weakened, CMV is cause for concern. Women who develop an active CMV infection during pregnancy can pass the virus to their babies, who might then experience symptoms. For people who have weakened immune systems, especially people who have had an organ, stem cell or bone marrow transplant, CMV infection can be fatal.
CMV spreads from person to person through body fluids, such as blood, saliva, urine, semen and breast milk. There is no cure, but there are medications that can help treat the symptoms.
Chickenpox thanks
Chickenpox is caused by the varicella zoster virus. It results in a characteristic rash of itchy blisters that spread from the chest, back, and face to the rest of the body. Symptoms include fever, feeling tired, headaches and last five to ten days, with occasional complications like pneumonia, brain inflammation or skin infections. The disease is more severe in adults. While it is highly contagious through coughs or sneezes, vaccination has decreased cases and complications significantly.
Lec4 measles, mumps, rubella, small pox & ulcer
The document summarizes several viruses that cause common infections: measles virus causes measles with prodromal fever followed by Koplik spots and rash; rubella virus causes rubella or German measles with fever, lymphadenopathy and rash; mumps virus causes mumps with parotitis, orchitis and meningitis. It also discusses poxvirus that caused smallpox, molluscum contagiosum virus, and aphthous ulcers which are common oral lesions with possible causes including trauma, nutritional deficiencies, and immune disorders. Treatment of aphthous ulcers includes antimicrobial mouthwashes, antibiotics, corticosteroids and local anesthetics.
Campylobacter
Campylobacter species are microaerophilic, curved gram-negative bacteria that are common causes of diarrheal disease. C. jejuni typically causes intestinal infections resulting in inflammatory diarrhea, abdominal pain, and fever, while C. fetus can cause more systemic infections. People most often acquire campylobacteriosis by ingesting undercooked contaminated poultry, raw milk, or water. The bacteria have a single polar flagellum that allows for darting motility and adherence to host tissues. Laboratory diagnosis involves culture on selective media under microaerophilic conditions and tests for oxidase and catalase production.
Disease case studies
The document discusses chickenpox, caused by the varicella-zoster virus. It spreads easily through sneezes, coughs or sharing food/drinks. Symptoms include tiredness, fever and rash appearing as red spots developing into blisters. Home treatment with rest, fever medication and oatmeal baths is usually sufficient. Vaccination can prevent chickenpox. Chickenpox is most common in children under 12, in early spring/late winter worldwide.
Chickenpox
Chickenpox is a contagious disease caused by the varicella zoster virus that causes an itchy rash and fluid-filled blisters. While usually mild, it can cause more severe symptoms in infants, teens, adults, and people with weak immune systems. After initial infection, the virus remains dormant in nerve tissue and can later cause shingles. Treatment focuses on relieving symptoms as there is no cure, and isolation can help prevent spread of the disease.
Chickenpox
Chickenpox is an infectious disease caused by a virus that is characterized by a rash of itchy blisters over the entire body. It mainly affects children but can be more serious in adults by potentially affecting internal organs. Symptoms include nausea, loss of appetite, aching muscles, and headache. The rash begins as spots that spread and form blisters. Treatment involves staying home while infectious to avoid spreading it, keeping nails short to prevent scratching, and there is a vaccine recommended for adults who have not had chickenpox. Once a person has chickenpox, they are protected and cannot get it again.
Herpes Simplex RC
Herpes simplex virus 1 and 2 are double stranded DNA viruses that cause infections in humans. HSV1 typically causes oral lesions while HSV2 typically causes genital lesions. The virus enters cells, replicates its DNA, and causes the cell to rupture releasing new virus particles. The virus can enter a dormant stage in nerve cells and be reactivated later to cause new lesions. Histopathology of lesions shows ballooned epithelial cells called Katzank cells with characteristic nuclear changes. Diagnosis involves visual exam, biopsy showing inclusion bodies, viral culture or antigen detection via immunofluorescence.
Human immune deficiency syndrome
This document provides an overview of Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) and Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome (AIDS). It describes how HIV attacks and destroys CD4 cells, weakening the immune system and increasing the risk of opportunistic infections. Over time, this can lead to AIDS. The document outlines how HIV is transmitted, common signs and symptoms, testing methods, associated infections like tuberculosis and cancers, how HIV affects the immune system, current treatment options involving antiretroviral therapy, prevention methods, and global statistics on those living with HIV/AIDS.
Chickenpox
Chickenpox is a contagious disease caused by the varicella zoster virus that causes an itchy rash and blisters on the skin. It was first discovered in the 9th century by Muhammad ibn Zakariya Razi and more details were provided in the 1500s by Giovanni Filippo. Symptoms include fever, muscle pain and an itchy rash that turns into fluid-filled blisters. After initial infection, the virus can remain dormant and cause shingles later in life. Treatment focuses on relieving symptoms as there is no cure.
8 measles
Measles is a highly contagious viral infection characterized by a maculopapular rash. It is caused by measles virus and spreads through respiratory droplets. Common symptoms include fever, cough, coryza, and conjunctivitis. Koplik spots may appear in the mouth before the rash. Complications can include pneumonia, encephalitis, and subacute sclerosing panencephalitis. Diagnosis is usually based on clinical presentation. Treatment focuses on relieving symptoms, with supportive care and antibiotics for secondary infections. Prevention involves vaccination and quarantine after exposure.

Aids
AIDS is an immune system disease caused by the HIV virus that progressively weakens the body's ability to fight infections and disease. It is transmitted through bodily fluids like blood, semen, vaginal fluids and breast milk. Currently AIDS is a global pandemic, with over 33.3 million people infected worldwide.
chicken pox
Chicken pox is caused by the varicella zoster virus and is highly contagious, usually occurring in children ages 5-9. It spreads through direct contact or respiratory droplets from infected individuals. After an incubation period of 2-3 weeks, symptoms include a slight fever and rash that begins on the trunk and spreads, with blisters forming scabs within a few days. While there is no cure, treatments can relieve itching and fever, and isolation is required until lesions have healed to prevent spread.
What can you do to help your community with the Flu Outbreak?
The Flu Virus can be transmitted through contact with sweat or respiratory droplets from an infected person. Sweat itself does not contain viruses but can become contaminated by touching skin or surfaces with respiratory droplets containing viruses. Common infections that can potentially spread through sweat contact include MRSA, colds, flu, impetigo, and herpes (though some debate exists around herpes transmission through sweat alone). To help prevent transmission, the document recommends calling a company for anti-virus/bacteria cleaning services.
Diseases of the xx century 4
STDs can be transmitted through sexual contact and enter the body through mucous membranes. While bacterial STDs like syphilis, gonorrhea, and chlamydia can often be cured with antibiotics, viral STDs like herpes, HPV, and HIV are incurable but can be treated. Gonorrhea is caused by bacteria that grow in warm, moist areas of the reproductive tract. Chlamydia is a common bacterial STD that often has no symptoms but can cause irreversible damage if left untreated. Herpes is easily transmitted through direct contact and remains dormant, with many infected individuals having no discernible symptoms.

The viruses that cause mumps, measles, and rubella are unrelated but share transmission characteristics. They spread worldwide through respiratory droplets from infected humans. While mumps causes swelling of the salivary glands, measles results in rash and fever and can lead to complications. Rubella usually causes a mild rash but can cause birth defects if a pregnant woman is infected. Vaccines for mumps, measles, and rubella are highly effective and recommended.
Common Infectious Diseases In Primary Care Gloria Enop 6036
Common infectious diseases discussed include viral infections like varicella, rubella, measles, roseola, erythema infectiosum, cytomegalovirus; parasitic infections such as schistosomiasis, giardiasis, hookworm, ascariasis, enterobiasis; insect-borne diseases including malaria, Rocky Mountain spotted fever, dengue fever, and Lyme disease. Symptoms, transmission, treatment and prevention are described for each condition.
mumps,measles,rubella
1. Measles is a highly contagious virus that infects the respiratory tract and causes symptoms like fever, cough, and a characteristic rash.
2. The introduction of the measles vaccine in 1963 led to a dramatic reduction in cases in the United States, with elimination of endemic transmission by 1993 due to high vaccination rates.
3. Complications from measles can include pneumonia, encephalitis, and a rare but severe form called subacute sclerosing panencephalitis that develops years after initial infection.
Infectious disease
Infectious diseases can cause complications during pregnancy such as congenital abnormalities, increased risk of pregnancy loss, and preterm birth. Some key infectious diseases discussed in the document include rubella, toxoplasmosis, cytomegalovirus, chickenpox, parvovirus, and listeria. These diseases are commonly transmitted through respiratory droplets, contaminated food or water, or direct contact. Complications for the fetus can include deafness, blindness, neurological impairments, and even termination of the pregnancy may be recommended in some cases if infection occurs early. Screening, vaccination, treatment with antibiotics or immunoglobulins are some management strategies discussed.
6. DNA& Herpes virus PH 2022.pptx
Viruses are a major cause of infections in humans. Some important viruses discussed include herpesviruses like herpes simplex virus 1 and 2, varicella zoster virus, cytomegalovirus and Epstein-Barr virus. Hepatitis viruses and human papillomaviruses are also discussed. Herpesviruses can cause lifelong latent infections. Human papillomaviruses can transform cells and cause warts and cancers like cervical cancer. Influenza A viruses can cause pandemics in humans through antigenic shift.
Rubella (german measles)
Rubella, also known as German measles, is a mild viral infection that causes a rash and fever. While the infection is usually mild and self-limiting in children and adults, rubella poses serious risks during pregnancy as it can cause birth defects if a pregnant woman is infected. The rubella virus is transmitted through respiratory droplets and causes a rash that spreads from the face. Vaccination with the MMR vaccine is recommended to prevent rubella infection and congenital rubella syndrome.
Torch infections in pregnancy presentation
The document provides an overview of TORCH infections, which are a group of perinatal infections that can be passed from a pregnant woman to her fetus. The TORCH acronym stands for Toxoplasmosis, Other (syphilis, varicella, parvovirus B19, listeriosis, coxsackie virus), Rubella, Cytomegalovirus, and Herpes simplex virus. Each infection is described in terms of transmission, clinical features, diagnosis, and treatment. Congenital infections can cause severe fetal anomalies or loss. Screening and treatment are important for preventing adverse effects in pregnancy.
Congenital Viral Infection
This document provides an overview of several congenital, perinatal, and neonatal viral infections. It summarizes the characteristics, risks, outcomes, prevention, and diagnosis of rubella, cytomegalovirus, herpes simplex virus, parvovirus B19, and varicella-zoster virus infections during pregnancy and in newborns. For each virus, it discusses transmission routes, clinical features of infection, risks of transmission and outcomes for the fetus or newborn, methods of diagnosis, and approaches to prevention and management.
Varicella chickenpox
Varicella, or chickenpox, is caused by the varicella-zoster virus. Chickenpox presents as an itchy rash with blister-like lesions that typically resolve within 4 to 6 days. Once infected, the virus remains dormant and can reactivate later in life as shingles. The varicella vaccine effectively prevents chickenpox infection and reduces severity when breakthrough cases occur. Transmission occurs through direct contact or airborne routes, with infected individuals being contagious from 1-2 days before the rash appears until lesions crust over.
syphilis, gonorrhea and noma
This document summarizes bacterial infections including syphilis, gonorrhea, and noma. Syphilis is caused by Treponema pallidum and has primary, secondary, tertiary, and congenital stages. Gonorrhea is caused by Neisseria gonorrhoeae and commonly infects the genital tract, sometimes ascending in women to cause pelvic inflammatory disease. Noma (cancrum oris) is a rapidly progressive infection caused by normal oral flora under conditions of compromised immunity such as malnutrition, affecting the gingiva and soft tissues of the face.
Bacterial Syphilis
This document discusses syphilis, a bacterial infection caused by Treponema pallidum. It begins by describing the etiology, epidemiology, signs and symptoms, and laboratory evaluation of syphilis. It then discusses the stages of syphilis in more detail, including primary, secondary, latent, tertiary, and congenital syphilis. The stages are characterized by different clinical manifestations such as chancres, rashes, neurological symptoms, and cardiovascular involvement. The document also covers the pathology of syphilis, its transmission routes, relationship to HIV, and laboratory tests for diagnosis.
