Eye and vision related terms include emmetropia (proper eyeball length for focus on the retina), strabismus
Special senses
The ear is divided into three parts - the outer, middle, and inner ear. The outer ear collects sound waves and funnels them through the ear canal to the middle ear, which contains three small bones that vibrate the inner ear. The inner ear contains the cochlea, which has tiny hair cells that change the vibrations into electrical signals sent to the brain. Ear tubes are small tubes inserted into the eardrum to drain fluid and prevent infections by allowing air into the middle ear. The document also defines several eye and ear-related medical terms.
Examination of ear.
The document provides details on performing a clinical evaluation of the ear. It outlines aspects to cover in the patient history, including chief complaints, history of presenting illness, ear pain, impaired hearing, tinnitus, vertigo and other associated symptoms. Details on character, severity, duration, progression and relieving/aggravating factors are described for each symptom. The evaluation also involves taking past medical, family and treatment histories relevant to the ear condition.
Hearing Losspowerpoint
Hearing loss can occur for anyone at any time and has many potential causes. The ear consists of three main parts - the outer, middle, and inner ear. Sound waves enter the outer ear and vibrations are amplified through the middle ear bones before causing hair cells in the inner ear to generate electrical signals to the brain. Hearing loss can result from damage or problems within the ear, such as infections, wax buildup, age-related decline, loud noise, medications, tumors, and certain viruses. Many people experience hearing loss but support and technology can help address related challenges.
Sense of Hearing
This document discusses the 5 senses - sight, hearing, smell, taste, and touch. It focuses on hearing, describing the 8 parts of the ear including the ear canal, eardrum, hammer, anvil, stirrup, cochlea, and auditory nerve. It explains that sound vibrations enter the ear canal and cause the eardrum to vibrate, transmitting the vibrations through the bones of the middle ear and into the cochlea where sound signals are sent to the brain. For people who have difficulty hearing, hearing aids can be used to amplify sounds collected by the ear canal.

This document summarizes key terminology related to the eye and ear. It defines terms like pressure equalizing tube, which is used to treat reoccurring ear infections or fluid buildup causing hearing loss. Bone conduction is defined as the transmission of sound through the bones of the skull to the inner ear. Otitis media refers to middle ear infections, often following upper respiratory infections. Emmetropia means normal vision, while exotropia is an outward turning of the eye. Visual activity is a measure of vision acuity using a Snellen chart.
Presentation #13
Pressure equalizing tubes (PE tubes) are small tubes placed in the eardrum to treat frequent ear infections, hearing loss due to ear infections, or poor response to antibiotic treatment for ear infections, which commonly occurs in children. An EENT (eyes, ears, nose, throat) physician specializes in treating diseases of the eyes, ears, nose and throat. Bone conduction is the process of sound waves vibrating the bones of the skull within the inner ear.
Special Senses
Doctors sometimes insert a pressure-equalizing (PE) tube into an incision or opening in the eardrum to prevent middle ear infection. Bone conduction is the conduction of sound to the inner ear through the bones of the skull and is the reason why a person's voice sounds different when recorded and played back. Inflammation of the middle ear, or middle ear infection, is known as otitis media.
Ch 13 Presentation
The document defines medical abbreviations and terms related to the special senses of the eye and ear. It describes a PE tube as a small tube placed in a child's ear drum to drain fluid and equalize pressure. It notes that EENT is an abbreviation for eyes, ears, nose, and throat. It also defines terms like bone conduction, otitis media, emmetropia, exotropia, and visual acuity.
Abbreviation and their meaning#13
This document defines abbreviations and terms used in ophthalmology and otolaryngology. It provides the full terms and definitions for several common medical abbreviations related to the eye, ear, nose and throat, including PET (Pressure Equalizing Tube), EENT (Eye, Ear, Nose, and Throat), BC (Bone Conduction), AU (Both Ears), OM (Otitis Media), EM (Emmetropia), XT (Exotropia), OS (Left Eye), EOM (Extraocular Movement), and VA (Visual Acuity).

Ppt final for slide share
A PET tube is a small tube surgically placed in a child's eardrum to drain fluid and equalize pressure between the middle ear and atmosphere. The eye, ear, nose and throat refer to the organs of sight, hearing/equilibrium, smell, and passage to the stomach/lungs respectively. Bone conduction is the transmission of sound to the inner ear through skull bones, explaining why one's recorded voice sounds different. Otitis media refers to middle ear infections often preceded by upper respiratory infections spreading via the Eustachian tube. Emmetropia describes proper eye refractive correlation to axial length bringing light parallel to the optic nerve into focus on the retina. Exotropia is an outward turning eye occurring during

Role of Mukta Pishti in the Management of Hyperthyroidism
Muktapishti is a traditional Ayurvedic preparation made from Shoditha Mukta (Purified Pearl), is believed to help regulate thyroid function and reduce symptoms of hyperthyroidism due to its cooling and balancing properties. Clinical evidence on its efficacy remains limited, necessitating further research to validate its therapeutic benefits.
Cell Therapy Expansion and Challenges in Autoimmune Disease
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.

Overall life span (LS) was 1671.7±1721.6 days and cumulative 5YS reached 62.4%, 10 years – 50.4%, 20 years – 44.6%. 94 LCP lived more than 5 years without cancer (LS=2958.6±1723.6 days), 22 – more than 10 years (LS=5571±1841.8 days). 67 LCP died because of LC (LS=471.9±344 days). AT significantly improved 5YS (68% vs. 53.7%) (P=0.028 by log-rank test). Cox modeling displayed that 5YS of LCP significantly depended on: N0-N12, T3-4, blood cell circuit, cell ratio factors (ratio between cancer cells-CC and blood cells subpopulations), LC cell dynamics, recalcification time, heparin tolerance, prothrombin index, protein, AT, procedure type (P=0.000-0.031). Neural networks, genetic algorithm selection and bootstrap simulation revealed relationships between 5YS and N0-12 (rank=1), thrombocytes/CC (rank=2), segmented neutrophils/CC (3), eosinophils/CC (4), erythrocytes/CC (5), healthy cells/CC (6), lymphocytes/CC (7), stick neutrophils/CC (8), leucocytes/CC (9), monocytes/CC (10). Correct prediction of 5YS was 100% by neural networks computing (error=0.000; area under ROC curve=1.0).
