Rob experienced blurred vision and an enlarged, painful left pupil after working with several chemicals including atropine in his lab. At the hospital, he was diagnosed with acute closed-angle glaucoma due to narrow drainage angles exacerbated by likely exposure to a mydriatic (pupil-dilating) agent. His intraocular pressure was successfully lowered with medication and he was advised to continue treatment until his symptoms resolved.

Embracing GenAI - A Strategic ImperativePeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202
The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

Autonomic disorders
CASE STUDY 46 Rob’s ocular accident
Learning outcomes
On completion of this case study, you will be able to:
• define mydriasis and describe the autonomic control of the pupil;
• describe the factors affecting the diameter of the pupil;
• describe the consequences of an increase in intraocular pressure (IOP) and
its pharmacological management.
Part 1
Mature student Rob is 26 years old and is working in a pharmacy research laboratory
as part of his work placement module. He deals with many different chemicals on
a daily basis. One afternoon while he was getting ready to finish for the day, he
noticed that his vision was becoming blurred in the left eye and the laboratory
lights were making his eye uncomfortable. After checking his eyes in the mirror,
he noticed that the pupil of his left eye was much bigger than the other eye. His
left eye was also painful. While he was thinking about visiting a doctor, one of
Clinical Physiology and Pharmacology Farideh Javid and Janice McCurrie
2008 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd
2. 96 CH 9 AUTONOMIC DISORDERS
the local doctors walked into the lab. Rob explained his problem and, following
questioning, it emerged that Rob had been dealing with atropine, cocaine, morphine
and phenylephrine that afternoon. Since it was late in the day, the doctor advised
him to go to the local hospital for a proper examination.
Q1 Briefly explain the control of the pupil diameter of the eye.
Q2 Define mydriasis and miosis, and explain how the diameter of the pupil can be
affected by common autonomic agonists and antagonists.
Q3 Under what circumstances could a patient have pupils of an unequal size?
Q4 Could any of the chemicals used by Rob that afternoon have caused his
symptoms?
Part 2
During an eye examination at the hospital, it was found that Rob’s IOP was above the
normal range in the left eye (33 mmHg) and in the right eye was slightly increased
(21.5 mmHg). In addition, it was found that the angle between his cornea and iris
was very narrow; this was worse in the left eye, where the pupil was dilated. Rob
confirmed that eye problems are common in his mum’s family.
The doctor made a diagnosis of an acute attack of closed-angle glaucoma, as a
result of his narrow drainage angles and the probable exposure to a mydriatic agent.
Q5 What should doctors do immediately for Rob?
Q6 What drugs can be used to lower IOP in this situation?
Q7 What is glaucoma? Comment on its pathophysiology, including the different
types of glaucoma.
Q8 What is the normal IOP and how is it maintained?
Part 3
Rob’s IOP was successfully lowered with medication, and the ophthalmologist
advised him to receive treatment to control IOP until all the presenting symptoms
had cleared up, which takes a week or so.
Q9 Comment on the drug treatments for glaucoma by explaining their mechanism
of action. Your answer should include some examples of the drugs used.
Q10 Comment on the side effects/contraindications associated with drugs used to
treat glaucoma.
Q11 Is there any alternative to drug therapy in treating glaucoma?
3. CASE STUDY 47 A SEVERE ATTACK OF GREENFLY 97
CASE STUDY 47 A severe attack of greenfly
Learning outcomes
On completion of this case study, you will be able to:
• describe the anatomical differences between the sympathetic and parasym-
pathetic systems, and the associated neurotransmitter release;
• explain the actions of anticholinesterase enzymes on organs such as the
heart, respiratory and central nervous systems, salivary glands, eyes, mucous
membrane of the mouth and skeletal neuromuscular junctions;
• review the symptoms of organophosphate toxicity and the use of antidotes.
Part 1
Jim used his redundancy money to start a small business growing pot plants to
supply local shops and offices. He had always been a very successful gardener so
he was horrified when plants in his new greenhouse suffered a severe attack of
greenfly. He collected a large container of commercial insecticide containing the
organophosphate malathion from his supplier and set to work with his spray.
After a few minutes of spraying, Jim started to feel very ill indeed and soon
collapsed. As a relative novice to commercial gardening, he had not realized that
organophosphates are very toxic, as they act as anticholinesterases. He did not
appreciate that he should have been using protective clothing when spraying these
compounds in a confined space.
Jim’s symptoms included severe intestinal cramps, drooling, sweating, lacrima-
tion, agitation, nausea and muscle twitching.
Q1 By which routes could malathion enter Jim’s body?
Q2 Which parts of the nervous system appear to have been affected by the
insecticide?
Q3 What are the anatomical differences between the sympathetic and parasympa-
thetic divisions of the autonomic nervous system?
Q4 Name the neurotransmitters in the two divisions of the autonomic nervous
system.
4. 98 CH 9 AUTONOMIC DISORDERS
Q5 Describe the events which lead to the release of transmitter in the parasympa-
thetic nervous system.
Q6 How may anticholinesterases affect neurotransmission within the autonomic
nervous system?
Q7 Identify the systems or tissues which appear to have been stimulated to produce
the symptoms that Jim experienced and the division of the nervous system
which provides innervation to the structures you describe.
Part 2
Fortunately, Jim was found by a colleague soon after collapsing. He was taken into
the fresh air and then to the local hospital where his contaminated clothing was
removed. He was given breathing support on admission and a drug, pralidoxime,
to reactivate his plasma cholinesterase activity. To be fully effective, this drug must
be given within a short time of exposure to anticholinesterases, but it can remain
active for 24 hours.
Jim was given an ‘antidote’ to help reduce his symptoms, which were very
distressing. After an overnight stay in hospital, he made a good recovery.
Q8 What effects would you expect to observe in (i) the heart, (ii) the bronchi and
(iii) the salivary glands following administration of an anticholinesterase?
Q9 Why was breathing support needed in the acute phase of Jim’s condition?
Q10 What type of drug could be used as an ‘antidote’ to relieve the symptoms Jim
was experiencing?
Q11 Would the drug you have identified in Question 10 have actions on the skeletal
neuromuscular junction? Give reasons for your answer.
Q12 Bethanechol is sometimes used therapeutically to enhance detrusor (bladder)
muscle activity when there is evidence of urinary retention. What are the
mechanism of action and adverse effects of bethanechol?
Part 3
Some months after Jim’s unpleasant experience with the insecticide, he attended
an eye clinic for a routine examination. Following the visit, his pupils were widely
dilated and he found it difficult to focus on objects.
Q13 What type of drug was likely to have been used for Jim’s eye examination to
cause these effects?
Q14 If a very large dose of this agent had been instilled into his eye by mistake and
had produced systemic actions, what effects would you expect to observe on
the heart and on the mucous membranes of the mouth?
