Conjunctivitis, also known as pink eye, is an inflammation of the transparent membrane that lines the eyelid and covers the white part of the eye. The most common cause is viral infection. Symptoms may range from mild to severe and include eye redness, swelling of the eyelids, increased tearing, irritation, sensitivity to light, and discharge. It is diagnosed based on symptoms, and while most viral cases will clear up on their own in 1 week, bacterial infections are usually treated with antibiotic eye drops or ointment. Conjunctivitis is highly contagious and can spread through direct contact, so proper hand washing and avoiding sharing towels/tissues is important to prevent spread.

Conjunctivitis, also known as pink eye, is an inflammation or infection of the transparent membrane (conjunctiva) that lines the eyelid and covers the white part of the eye. The main symptoms are pink or red eyes, itching, burning, tearing, and discharge from the eye that can be watery or thick and purulent. There are three main types - viral conjunctivitis which spreads easily and causes watery discharge, bacterial conjunctivitis which causes thick pus-like discharge, and allergic conjunctivitis triggered by allergens. It can be transmitted through direct contact with infected eye secretions or contact with contaminated surfaces. Diagnosis is based on symptoms and whether the

This document discusses different types of conjunctivitis (inflammation of the conjunctiva). It describes the causes, symptoms, diagnosis, and management of bacterial, viral, allergic, chemical, and vernal conjunctivitis. The most common causes of bacterial conjunctivitis are Streptococcus pneumoniae, Haemophilus influenzae, and Staphylococcus aureus. Viral conjunctivitis is often caused by common cold viruses. Allergic conjunctivitis is a hypersensitivity reaction to allergens like pollen. Chemical conjunctivitis results from exposure to irritants. Vernal conjunctivitis is a chronic condition that occurs mostly in young males during warm weather.

Conjunctivitis by Dr.prudhvi
Conjunctivitis, also known as pinkeye, is an inflammation of the conjunctiva, which is the thin clear tissue that covers the white part of the eye and lines the inside of the eyelid. Pinkeye can be caused by viruses, bacteria, irritants like smoke or pool chlorine, and allergies. Symptoms include redness, increased tearing, thick yellow discharge, itchy and burning eyes, and blurred vision. Doctors can examine the eyes and take samples of fluid to identify the cause and prescribe proper treatment, which may include antibiotic eye drops or pills for bacterial pinkeye or allowing viral pinkeye to run its course.

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.Hemodialysis: Chapter 4, Dialysate Circuit - Dr.Gawad

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).
