Cholera
Cholera is an acute diarrheal illness caused by the bacteria Vibrio cholerae. It causes a severe watery diarrhea that can lead to dehydration and death if untreated. It is transmitted through contaminated food or water and has caused several pandemics throughout history. John Snow's work in the 1850s London cholera outbreak helped establish contaminated water as a transmission route by tracing cases to a contaminated water pump. Treatment involves oral rehydration therapy with fluids and salts. Prevention relies on access to clean water, sanitation, hygiene education and vaccination in endemic areas.

Epidemiology and control of cholera
Cholera is an acute diarrheal infection caused by the bacterium Vibrio cholerae. It spreads through contaminated food and water and causes severe watery diarrhea that can kill within hours if untreated. Cholera remains a global threat in developing countries where access to clean water and sanitation is limited. Prevention focuses on improving water, sanitation, and hygiene through measures like water treatment, handwashing, and food hygiene. Vaccines can also help control outbreaks. Proper case management including oral rehydration is critical to reducing death rates from cholera during outbreaks.
Typhoid
Typhoid fever is caused by the bacterium Salmonella Typhi. It spreads through contaminated food or water. Symptoms include sustained high fever, abdominal pain, and rose-colored spots on the body. The disease is diagnosed through blood or stool cultures and the Widal test. Prevention focuses on vaccination and avoiding risky foods or drinks while traveling in areas where typhoid is common. Treatment involves antibiotics or sometimes surgery for complications.
Cholera Disease
Cholera is an infectious bacterial disease caused by Vibrio cholerae that infects the small intestine. It is typically contracted by consuming food or water contaminated with the feces of an infected individual. The bacteria release a toxin that causes severe watery diarrhea and vomiting, which can lead to rapid dehydration and death if untreated. The disease spreads through the fecal-oral route, with transmission aided by the bacteria's ability to form biofilms on crustaceans like copepods, allowing large concentrations to infect humans. Prevention focuses on drinking safe water, handwashing, proper sanitation, and fully cooking food.

Scarlet Fever
Scarlet fever is an upper respiratory tract infection associated with a characteristic rash caused by infection with pyrogenic exotoxin-producing group A streptococcus. The rash makes the skin have a goose-pimple appearance and the tongue appear strawberry-like. For patients with classic scarlet fever, antibiotic therapy with penicillin should be started immediately, as penicillin is the drug of choice. Erythromycin is recommended for patients allergic to penicillin.
Acute Diarrhoeal Diseases
Diarrhoea is defined as loose, liquid, or watery stools more than 3 times per day. It is mainly caused by viral, bacterial, and parasitic infections transmitted through the fecal-oral route. The major causes of diarrhoea globally are rotavirus infection in children under 5 years old and enterotoxigenic E. coli (ETEC) infection, which is the most common cause of traveller's diarrhea. Host factors like malnutrition and environmental factors like lack of access to clean water and sanitation also contribute significantly to the high global burden of diarrhoeal diseases.
cholera
Cholera is an infection of the small intestine caused by the bacterium Vibrio cholerae. It causes watery diarrhea and vomiting and can spread rapidly in areas with poor sanitation.

It provides background on the IHR, stating that they are binding on 194 countries and are intended to help prevent disease spread across borders and ensure countries have response systems. The IHR require countries to quickly notify the WHO of severe disease events that could spread internationally. The WHO then guides a coordinated global response. Four diseases always require reporting. The role of countries is to assess risk while the WHO determines if an event is an emergency of international concern.
IMCI LECTURE
The document discusses the benefits of meditation for reducing stress and anxiety. Regular meditation practice can help calm the mind and body by lowering heart rate and blood pressure. Making meditation a part of a daily routine, even if just 10-15 minutes per day, can have mental and physical health benefits over time by reducing stress levels and promoting relaxation.
Immunity lecture ppt
Immunity is the body's ability to recognize, destroy, and eliminate foreign antigens like bacteria and viruses. Antigens induce an immune response that leads to the formation of antibodies that specifically react with that antigen. Antibodies are immunoglobulins, including IgG, IgM, IgD, IgA, and IgE, that react with the antigens that stimulate their production. Vaccines are generally safe and effective, but all immune responses carry some risk of adverse reactions, like minor local reactions, irritability, fever or gastrointestinal upset. Herd immunity occurs when vaccinating a portion of a population provides indirect protection to unvaccinated individuals by making it difficult for diseases to spread from person to person.
Housing ppt slideshare
Housing provides shelter and should include surrounding community facilities. It has broadened from just physical structures to human settlements and residential environments that support physical and mental health. Healthful housing provides protection from disease and hazards while allowing personal and community development. Governments should establish minimum housing standards and help low-income families access financing to meet housing goals. Overcrowding can negatively impact health and is defined based on rooms and floor space per person. A variety of physical, economic and social indicators measure housing quality and impacts.

Air lecture ppt
Air is composed primarily of nitrogen, oxygen, and trace amounts of other gases. It also contains water vapor and suspended particles. Human activities like breathing, combustion, and industry introduce impurities into the air. Natural mechanisms like wind, sunlight, rain, and plant life help cleanse the air. When many people occupy confined indoor spaces, the air becomes contaminated through chemical changes like rising carbon dioxide and physical changes like increased temperature and humidity. Proper ventilation is needed to replace stale air and maintain a thermally comfortable environment for occupants. Various natural and mechanical ventilation methods aim to regulate indoor air quality and temperature.

We’re talking about Vedic Meditation, a form of meditation that has been around for at least 5,000 years. Back then, the people who lived in the Indus Valley, now known as India and Pakistan, practised meditation as a fundamental part of daily life. This knowledge that has given us yoga and Ayurveda, was known as Veda, hence the name Vedic. And though there are some written records, the practice has been passed down verbally from generation to generation.Cosmetology and Trichology Courses at Kosmoderma Academy PRP (Hair), DR Growt...

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.
