Cholera is an infection of the small intestine caused by the bacterium Vibrio cholerae. The main symptoms are severe watery diarrhea and vomiting which can lead to dehydration and death if untreated. It is transmitted when a person ingests food or water contaminated with feces or vomit from an infected individual, even those who are asymptomatic. Proper sanitation practices such as boiling water, handwashing, and preventing contamination of water supplies are effective ways to prevent the spread of cholera.

Cholera Symptoms: 5 risk factors you should be anxious aboutAnshumanGohain1
Cholera symptoms are usually mild, but in some extreme conditions, they can be fatal if left untreated. Cholera mostly prevails in poverty and places affected by natural disasters or war. People in these places live in crowded conditions, and they don’t have access to proper sanitation.
Cholera symptoms show its effects within a few hours of infection. In some cases, it may also take 3 to 5 days.
Cholera is a type of infectious disease that will cause watery diarrhea, eventually leading to dehydration. If it is left untreated, it can lead to death.
Cholera is caused by drinking water or eating food that contains a bacterium known as Vibrio Cholerae. During the 1800s, a large population of the United States was affected by cholera. But after the modernization of the water and sewage systems, the rate of this disease has lessened.
Usually, cholera symptoms are not severe. But sometimes, it may be serious as well. 1/20th of every cholera-infected person suffers diarrhea and vomiting, leading to dehydration.
Cholera is an acute diarrheal illness caused by infection of the intestine with Vibrio cholerae bacteria. People can get sick when they swallow food or water contaminated with cholera bacteria. The infection is often mild or without symptoms, but can sometimes be severe and life-threatening.
"Diarrhoea-This is characterized by 3 or more watery schools per day or having more stools than is normal for that person. Almost everybody has diarrhoea at some point in their lives. Diarrhoea may be a cause of concern because it may cause the more life threatening dehydration. Mindheal homeopathy can help in the treatment of diarrhoea."/>
Know About Water Borne Diseases Symptoms and Prevention.pptxLovina Kapoor
Waterborne diseases are common in developing countries where access to clean water and hygienic living conditions is not a reality yet. In simple terms, waterborne diseases are caused by microorganisms such as viruses and bacteria that enter the body through contaminated water or through contact with feces.
Defined as inflammation of the mucous membrane of stomach and intestine usually causing nausea ,vomiting and diarrhea.
Gastro-intestinal infections represent a major public health and clinical problem worldwide. Many species of bacteria, viruses and protozoa cause gastro-intestinal infection.

New Directions in Targeted Therapeutic Approaches for Older Adults With Mantl...i3 Health
i3 Health is pleased to make the speaker slides from this activity available for use as a non-accredited self-study or teaching resource.
This slide deck presented by Dr. Kami Maddocks, Professor-Clinical in the Division of Hematology and
Associate Division Director for Ambulatory Operations
The Ohio State University Comprehensive Cancer Center, will provide insight into new directions in targeted therapeutic approaches for older adults with mantle cell lymphoma.
STATEMENT OF NEED
Mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) is a rare, aggressive B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) accounting for 5% to 7% of all lymphomas. Its prognosis ranges from indolent disease that does not require treatment for years to very aggressive disease, which is associated with poor survival (Silkenstedt et al, 2021). Typically, MCL is diagnosed at advanced stage and in older patients who cannot tolerate intensive therapy (NCCN, 2022). Although recent advances have slightly increased remission rates, recurrence and relapse remain very common, leading to a median overall survival between 3 and 6 years (LLS, 2021). Though there are several effective options, progress is still needed towards establishing an accepted frontline approach for MCL (Castellino et al, 2022). Treatment selection and management of MCL are complicated by the heterogeneity of prognosis, advanced age and comorbidities of patients, and lack of an established standard approach for treatment, making it vital that clinicians be familiar with the latest research and advances in this area. In this activity chaired by Michael Wang, MD, Professor in the Department of Lymphoma & Myeloma at MD Anderson Cancer Center, expert faculty will discuss prognostic factors informing treatment, the promising results of recent trials in new therapeutic approaches, and the implications of treatment resistance in therapeutic selection for MCL.
Target Audience
Hematology/oncology fellows, attending faculty, and other health care professionals involved in the treatment of patients with mantle cell lymphoma (MCL).
Learning Objectives
1.) Identify clinical and biological prognostic factors that can guide treatment decision making for older adults with MCL
2.) Evaluate emerging data on targeted therapeutic approaches for treatment-naive and relapsed/refractory MCL and their applicability to older adults
3.) Assess mechanisms of resistance to targeted therapies for MCL and their implications for treatment selection

The prostate is an exocrine gland of the male mammalian reproductive system
It is a walnut-sized gland that forms part of the male reproductive system and is located in front of the rectum and just below the urinary bladder
Function is to store and secrete a clear, slightly alkaline fluid that constitutes 10-30% of the volume of the seminal fluid that along with the spermatozoa, constitutes semen
A healthy human prostate measures (4cm-vertical, by 3cm-horizontal, 2cm ant-post ).
It surrounds the urethra just below the urinary bladder. It has anterior, median, posterior and two lateral lobes
It’s work is regulated by androgens which are responsible for male sex characteristics
Generalised disease of the prostate due to hormonal derangement which leads to non malignant enlargement of the gland (increase in the number of epithelial cells and stromal tissue)to cause compression of the urethra leading to symptoms (LUTS

2. Cholera is an infection in the small intestine caused by
the bacterium Vibrio cholerae. The main symptoms are
profuse, watery diarrhea and vomiting. Transmission
occurs primarily by drinking water or eating food that has
been contaminated by the feces of an infected person,
including one with no apparent symptoms.
4. Acute infectious disease
is often fatal
characterized by severe
vomiting, diarrhoea, and
collapse
5. Caused By: Vibrio cholerae
•Indirect transmission
Vehicle borne
•Reaches water through:
Vomiting
Diarrhoea
•Carriers active or passive
•Produces toxins in sml intestines that
cause severe diarrhoea and
dehydration
6. Through:
Contaminated water
Contaminated food
Eating with unwashed hands
Also house flies and other
insects
7.
8. The primary symptoms of cholera are profuse, painless diarrhea
and vomiting of clear fluid. These symptoms usually start suddenly,
one to five days after ingestion of the bacteria. The diarrhea is
frequently described as "rice water" in nature and may have a fishy
odor.
An untreated person with cholera may produce 10 to 20 liters (3 to
5 US gal) of diarrhea a day with fatal results. For every symptomatic
person, 3 to 100 people get the infection but remain asymptomatic.
Cholera has been nicknamed the "blue death" due to a patient's
skin turning a bluish-gray hue from extreme loss of fluids.
9.
10. If the severe diarrhea is not treated with intravenous rehydration, it
can result in life-threatening dehydration and electrolyte
imbalances.The typical symptoms of dehydration include low blood
pressure, poor skin turgor (wrinkled hands), sunken eyes, and a
rapid pulse.
A person with severe
dehydration due to cholera -
note the sunken eyes and
decreased skin turgor which
produces wrinkled hands
11. Host drinks water
Bacteria moves through the stomach
Reach the intestine & produce flagella
Propel through mucus of the sm.
intestine
Produce toxin causing diarrhea
Feces carry new bacteria into drinking
water
12.
13. When consumed, most bacteria do not survive the acidic conditions of
the human stomach. The few surviving bacteria conserve their energy
and stored nutrients during the passage through the stomach by
shutting down much protein production.
When the surviving bacteria exit the stomach and reach the small
intestine, they need to propel themselves through the thick mucus that
lines the small intestine to get to the intestinal walls where they can
thrive. V. cholerae bacteria start up production of the hollow cylindrical
protein flagellin to make flagella, the cork-screw helical fibers they
rotate to propel themselves through the mucus of the small intestine.
14. Once the cholera bacteria reach the intestinal wall they no longer
need the flagella to move. The bacteria stop producing the protein
flagellin to conserve energy and nutrients by changing the mix of
proteins which they express in response to the changed chemical
surroundings. On reaching the intestinal wall, V. cholerae start
producing the toxic proteins that give the infected person a watery
diarrhea.
This carries the multiplying new generations of V. cholerae bacteria
out into the drinking water of the next host if proper sanitation
measures are not in place.

21. Although cholera may be life-threatening, prevention of
the disease is normally straightforward if proper
sanitation practices are followed. In developed countries,
due to nearly universal advanced water treatment and
sanitation practices, cholera is no longer a major health
threat.
