Skin, eye, ear, nose and tongue
Physiology of vision, hearing, smell, touch, taste and equilibrium.
Sensory organs or Special senses:
The nervous system must receive and process information about the world outside in order to react, communicate, and keep the body healthy and safe.
Skin, eye, ear, nose & tongue (taste buds) are called sensory organ or special senses.
Sensory organs have special receptors that allow us to smell, taste, see, hear, touch and maintain equilibrium or balance.
Information conveyed from these receptors to the central nervous system is used to help maintain homeostasis(self-regulating process by which biological systems help to maintain stability while adjusting to conditions that are optimal for survival).
Skin:
Skin is the largest organ of our body.
It is related to the sense of touch. The sense of touch is also referred to as tactioception.
The skin contains general receptors which can detect touch, pain, pressure & temperature.
They are present throughout the skin.
Skin receptors generate an impulse, and when activated, is carried to the spinal cord and then to the brain.
Structure of the skin:
The skin is composed of 3 major layers of tissue:
Epidermis layer
Dermis layer
Subcutaneous layer.
The epidermis, the outermost layer of skin, provides a waterproof barrier and creates our skin tone.
The dermis - the middle layer, under the epidermis, contains tough connective tissue, hair follicles, and sweat glands.
The subcutaneous tissue (hypodermis) - deeper/ innermost layer, it is made of fat and connective tissue.
Epidermis:
The epidermis is the thin, outer layer of the skin that is visible to the eye.
Contains different types of cells: keratinocytes, melanocytes, Merkel cells and Langerhans cells.
The skin’s color is created by special cells called melanocytes, which produce the pigment melanin. Melanocytes are located in the epidermis. These form a pigment shield against UV radiation.
It does not contain blood vessels
The epidermis consists of 4 layers: Stratum germinativum, Stratum spinosum, Stratum granulosum, Stratum corneum
Main functions: protection, absorption of nutrients and homeostasis.
Dermis:
The dermis is the middle layer of the skin that offers elasticity.
It is composed of connective tissues and collagen fibers.
is much thicker than the epidermis
The dermis provides a site for the hair follicles, sweat glands, sebaceous glands, blood vessels, lymph vessels, sensory receptors, nerve fibers, muscle fibers & specialized cells (mast cells and fibroblasts).
The main functions of the dermis are:
Protection
Cushioning the deeper structures from mechanical injury;
Providing nourishment to the epidermis;
Playing an important role in wound healing
Subcutaneous:
The subcutaneous is the layer of tissue directly underneath the dermis.
It is also called hypodermis.
This layer of tissue is composed of fat cells and connective tissue.
It is the thickest l

STRESS REACTION
BACKGROUND INFORMATION
Historical Perspective
Stress reaction refers to the emotional aftershocks that occur after the experience of a traumatic event.
Historically, the society largely ignored the import of stress reactions on the physiological and mental health of patients.
For instance, there were limited programs to help returning veterans, new mothers, and accident survivors.
The
BACKGROUND INFORMATION
Modern Perspective
Extensive and elaborate research on stress reactions has revolutinalised perspectives on stress reactions.
Health experts argue that traumatic experiences have a long standing impact on the emotional and psychological welfare of people (Pakos‐Zebrucka, 2016).
Consequently, society has taken drastic efforts to help individuals who have experienced traumatic events and other stressful events
The
INSPIRATION OF THE RESEARCH
Rationale for the Study
The reason I purposed to focus on stress reaction is because of personal curiosity and experience.
As a student and young adult, I am intrigued by the relationship between emotional and physical health.
Research indicates that quality emotional health contributes to quality physical health and vice versa.
Moreover, I am interested in the topic due to personal reasons since become extremely stressed when preparing for an important class presentation.
The
MIND-BODY CONNECTION
Stress connection occurs when a physical event triggers a subconscious psychological response.
The topic illustrates a strong mind-body connection by outlining how the body reacts to stress.
Stress reaction is more focused on the mind than the mind (Stapleton, 2019).
Scientifically, the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis regulates the production and circulation of hormones under stressful conditions.

MIND-BODY CONNECTION
Cases of excessive or prolonged stress, or perturbations in the function or regulation of the HPA axis may result in abnormal changes in hormones circulating through both the periphery and the central nervous system.
The HPA axis is the primary circuit that mediates the physiological response to stress (Stapleton, 2019).
The HPA axis also regulates the level of circulating glucocorticoid hormones in the central nervous system.
LESSONS AND APPLICATION
During the research, I was surprised to find that feeling anxious before a big appointment has nothing to do with fear.
Apparently, this is part of the mind-body connec ...

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.

Recomendações da OMS sobre cuidados maternos e neonatais para uma experiência pós-natal positiva.
Em consonância com os ODS – Objetivos do Desenvolvimento Sustentável e a Estratégia Global para a Saúde das Mulheres, Crianças e Adolescentes, e aplicando uma abordagem baseada nos direitos humanos, os esforços de cuidados pós-natais devem expandir-se para além da cobertura e da simples sobrevivência, de modo a incluir cuidados de qualidade.
Estas diretrizes visam melhorar a qualidade dos cuidados pós-natais essenciais e de rotina prestados às mulheres e aos recém-nascidos, com o objetivo final de melhorar a saúde e o bem-estar materno e neonatal.
Uma “experiência pós-natal positiva” é um resultado importante para todas as mulheres que dão à luz e para os seus recém-nascidos, estabelecendo as bases para a melhoria da saúde e do bem-estar a curto e longo prazo. Uma experiência pós-natal positiva é definida como aquela em que as mulheres, pessoas que gestam, os recém-nascidos, os casais, os pais, os cuidadores e as famílias recebem informação consistente, garantia e apoio de profissionais de saúde motivados; e onde um sistema de saúde flexível e com recursos reconheça as necessidades das mulheres e dos bebês e respeite o seu contexto cultural.
Estas diretrizes consolidadas apresentam algumas recomendações novas e já bem fundamentadas sobre cuidados pós-natais de rotina para mulheres e neonatos que recebem cuidados no pós-parto em unidades de saúde ou na comunidade, independentemente dos recursos disponíveis.
É fornecido um conjunto abrangente de recomendações para cuidados durante o período puerperal, com ênfase nos cuidados essenciais que todas as mulheres e recém-nascidos devem receber, e com a devida atenção à qualidade dos cuidados; isto é, a entrega e a experiência do cuidado recebido. Estas diretrizes atualizam e ampliam as recomendações da OMS de 2014 sobre cuidados pós-natais da mãe e do recém-nascido e complementam as atuais diretrizes da OMS sobre a gestão de complicações pós-natais.
O estabelecimento da amamentação e o manejo das principais intercorrências é contemplada.
Recomendamos muito.
Vamos discutir essas recomendações no nosso curso de pós-graduação em Aleitamento no Instituto Ciclos.
