Hepatitis C - Recent advances
Chronic hepatitis C is caused by the hepatitis C virus (HCV). It was previously called "non-A, non-B hepatitis". HCV has 6 major genotypes. Genotype 1 is the most common in the United States and has the lowest response rates to treatment. Standard treatment was pegylated interferon and ribavirin for 48 weeks for genotype 1 and 24 weeks for genotypes 2 and 3. New direct acting antivirals like sofosbuvir have improved treatment outcomes with higher cure rates and fewer side effects while allowing treatment without interferon for most patients. Sofosbuvir inhibits the HCV RNA polymerase and costs around $1,800 for a 24 week course in developing countries, compared to $84,

Consciousness
Consciousness allows humans to consolidate information in novel ways and bind complex mental processes into a coherent whole, providing flexibility. The document discusses stages of sleep like REM sleep and how sleep deprivation can impact mood and performance. It also covers dreaming, sleep and the brain, hypnosis, meditation, and altered states of consciousness.
Ap consciousness ss
This document provides an overview of key topics related to consciousness, including biological rhythms and sleep cycles, modern levels of consciousness, hypnosis, and the effects of drugs on consciousness. Some key points:
- Biological rhythms like circadian rhythms and sleep-wake cycles influence daily functioning and are regulated by structures like the pineal gland and melatonin. Disrupting these rhythms can cause issues like jet lag.
- There are different levels of consciousness including conscious awareness, the preconscious which stores memories not currently in thought, and the unconscious which controls automatic processes.
- Sleep cycles through stages including light, deep, and REM sleep, each characterized by different brain wave patterns. Sleep allows
Sleep AP Psych
The document discusses consciousness and the sleep cycle. It describes three levels of consciousness: conscious, preconscious, and unconscious. The sleep cycle involves passing through stages of non-REM sleep (stages 1-4) and REM sleep in a repeating 90 minute cycle throughout the night. Stage 3 and 4 non-REM sleep involves slow wave brain activity that is important for restoration. REM sleep involves dreaming and brain activity similar to being awake but the body is paralyzed. Biological rhythms like the circadian rhythm influence sleep patterns on a daily cycle.
2011 ch 5
Discussion in this chapter focuses on consciousness and altered states of consciousness. We look at sleep and dreaming, hypnosis, meditation, and the effects of illicit drugs.
Consciousness
Psychoactive drugs influence perceptions, emotions, and behavior by acting on the central nervous system (Feldman, 2008). Stimulants like cocaine increase alertness while depressants like alcohol and barbiturates slow down the nervous system. Tolerance develops with repeated use of drugs, requiring higher doses to achieve the same effects. Dependence occurs when the body adapts to functioning with the drug, resulting in withdrawal symptoms without it.
CONSIOUSNESS-SLEEP-DREAMS.ppt
The document discusses various aspects of consciousness, sleep, and dreams. It begins by defining consciousness and describing different levels of consciousness such as waking, subconscious, and unconscious states. It then discusses sleep stages and brain wave patterns associated with each stage. REM sleep is specifically called out as the stage where most vivid dreams occur. The document also covers sleep disorders, the effects of sleep deprivation, and theories about the purpose and meaning of dreams.
Dreams class 2
We need sleep for our body to relieve stress, grow, and balance bodily chemicals. Not sleeping can cause issues like nausea, memory problems, and difficulty focusing, as evidenced by a student who stayed awake for 11 days with few long term effects. Melatonin regulates our sleep-wake cycles, and production decreases with age. There are two main types of sleep: NREM and REM. NREM has three stages that get deeper, while REM involves dreaming and an active brain with paralyzed body. The purpose of different sleep stages is still unclear, but it may help process memories and make sense of the day.
Two Notions of Consciousness
This document discusses various topics related to consciousness, including different levels of awareness, altered states of consciousness, cognitive studies of consciousness, sleep and dreams, and psychoactive drugs. It defines higher and lower levels of consciousness and describes how cognitive studies examine concepts like automatic vs controlled processing and implicit vs explicit memory. The document also outlines the stages of sleep, theories of dreaming, common sleep disorders, and healthier ways to alter consciousness compared to psychoactive drugs.
Introductory Psychology: Sleep
The document discusses biological rhythms and sleep stages, explaining that circadian rhythms operate on a 24-hour cycle and influence sleep and wakefulness, and describing the five distinct sleep stages that occur in a repeating cycle approximately every 90 minutes. It also reviews theories about why we sleep and dream, such as for physiological functions like neural development and information processing, and examines some common sleep disorders like insomnia, narcolepsy, and sleep apnea.
ch 07 consciousness
This chapter discusses various states of consciousness including sleep, dreams, hypnosis, and drug-induced states. It describes the stages of sleep and theories about why we sleep. Common sleep disorders are explained as well as theories about the purpose and content of dreams. Hypnosis is described as a social interaction involving suggestion, and theories are provided to explain the hypnotized state. Different types of psychoactive drugs are outlined including their effects and influences on use. Near death experiences are also briefly mentioned.
Chapter6
The document provides an overview of attention, consciousness altering states, sleep, and psychoactive drugs. It discusses experiments that study attention, the stages of sleep and what they involve, theories of dreaming, and categories of psychoactive drugs and factors influencing their effects. Disorders of attention and sleep are also summarized, including visual neglect, attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, insomnia, and sleepwalking.
Aguiar ap consciousness sleep and dreams 2014 2015
Biological rhythms influence our daily functioning through circadian rhythms and the sleep-wake cycle. The circadian rhythm is regulated by the suprachiasmatic nucleus which influences hormones like melatonin to make us feel sleepy. The sleep cycle consists of REM (rapid eye movement) and non-REM sleep stages that repeat about every 90 minutes. Sleep is important for restoration, recovery of the body, and processing memories from the previous day.

This document discusses various topics related to consciousness including biological rhythms, sleep, dreams, hypnosis, and psychoactive drugs. It describes circadian rhythms and how they regulate hormones and can be disrupted. It discusses the stages and typical patterns of sleep and some sleep disorders. Dreams are explored in terms of Freudian and activation-synthesis theories. Hypnosis theories include dissociation and sociocognitive perspectives. Drugs are classified and their physiological and psychological effects on the brain and behavior are outlined, including specific examples like alcohol and cocaine.
Conciousness
Consciousness refers to our awareness of ourselves and our environment, which varies depending on our attention. It describes what we are aware of, but many things are processed outside of our consciousness. Daydreaming and fantasizing are almost universal, and tend to serve adaptive functions like escaping reality, preparing for the future, and increasing creativity. Biological rhythms like circadian rhythms regulate our daily alertness cycles. Higher consciousness can be achieved through meditation and allows one to transcend normal thought patterns.
