Cystic fibrosis is a genetic disorder caused by a mutation in the CFTR gene that results in very thick, sticky mucus building up in the lungs and digestive system. It causes symptoms like salty skin, persistent coughing, lung infections, and issues with growth. There is no cure, but treatments focus on clearing mucus from the lungs, preventing infections with antibiotics, improving nutrition, and increasing life expectancy, which is now near 30-40 years compared to 12 years in the 1950s.
Cystic fibrosis (also known as CF or mucoviscidosis) is a recessive multi-system genetic disease characterized by abnormal transport of chloride and sodium across epithelium, leading to thick, viscous secretions in the lungs, pancreas, liver, intestine.[Yankas JR, et al. (2004). "Cystic fibrosis adult care consensus conference report". Chest 125: 1-39.]
THIS PRESENTATION INCLUDES DEFINITION, OVERVIEW, PATHOLOGY, CLINICAL FEATURES, ASSESSMENT AND PT MANAGEMENT OF CYSTIC FIBROSIS. THIS PPT WILL BE VERY USEFUL FOR FINAL YEAR BPT STUDENTS. IT COVERS BASIC KNOWLEDGE REGARDING THE DISEASE AND ALLOWS BETTER UNDERSTANDING. IT IS MADE ONLY FOR LEARNING AND EXAM PURPOSE.

Description:
Cystic Fibrosis is a genetic disease of the secretory glands that affects the lungs, pancreas, liver, intestines, sinuses, and sex organs.
Definition:
Cystic Fibrosis is characterized by an abnormally thick and sticky production of mucus in the body.
Mucus is normal in the body, it lubricates and protects passages such as the respiratory airways and digestive tract (Genetics Home Reference. 2017). Cystic Fibrosis is a mutation in the the Cystic Fibrosis Transmembrane Regulator (CFTR) gene that causes the over production of thick, sticky mucus that can block these passages and create breeding grounds for infection (National Human Genome Research Institute 2013). This infection can lead to scaring, permanent lung damage and even death. This mucus in the digestive tract can prevent the absorption of nutrients leading to weight loss, malnutrition, failure to thrive, as well as numerous long term problems caused from poor nutrition even though the person may be eating a solid health diet (Genetics Home Reference. 2017). The affects this mucus has on the pancreas can alter insulin production leading to diabetes. Reproductive health is also affected from the mucus produced from cystic fibrosis often leading to infertility (Genetics Home Reference. 2017).

Cystic fibrosis is a life-threatening genetic disease common in white Australians. Patients look normal on the outside, but on the inside, their body is producing thick and sticky mucus from different glands. It affects the digestive (liver and pancreas), respiratory (lungs), and reproductive system. It’s usually diagnosed at birth and is not contagious. Unfortunately, this disease doesn’t have a cure, but continuous treatment can slow its progression and increase the chances of survival.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

He discussed the concept of quality improvement, emphasizing its applicability to various aspects of life, including personal, project, and program improvements. He defined quality as doing the right thing at the right time in the right way to achieve the best possible results and discussed the concept of the "gap" between what we know and what we do, and how this gap represents the areas we need to improve. He explained the scientific approach to quality improvement, which involves systematic performance analysis, testing and learning, and implementing change ideas. He also highlighted the importance of client focus and a team approach to quality improvement.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.
The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.
1. Cystic Fibrosis
By: Michael Crudele, William
Foschi, Gabby Battagila
2. Cystic fibrosis
Genetic Disorder
Hereditary
Causes very thick mucus to form in
respiratory and digestive system
No cure
3. Symptoms
Salty skin
Under average growth and development
despite healthy diet
Persistent coughing
Shortness of breath
Frequent lung infections
Digestive related problems: diabetes,
pancreatitis, and malnutrition
4. Causes
Genetic mutation
Most common mutation is
ΔF508. Deletes 3 amino
acids along the CFTR gene
The mutation is an
autosomal recessive gene Purple: Unaffected Carriers
Blue: Unaffected
The gene will then produce Red: Affected
a bad CFTR protein
5. Causes (Continued)
The CFTR gene is located towards the
bottom of the larger half of the chromosome
(q31.2)
The ΔF508 results in a CFTR protein that is
missing a fold and cannot complete its function
as a pump to balance chloride, iodide and
other chemicals inside and outside the cells
These chemicals then will cause very thick,
nutrient-rich mucus to form which lets bacteria
thrive
6. Treatment and Prognosis for CF
Machines are made to shake mucus loose
by pounding the chest and back to help
problems in the lungs
Antibiotics and anti-inflammatory
medicines are used to help treat and
prevent lung infections
Well balanced and high calorie meals are
used to help nutritional problems
Vitamins are taken as well as a feeding
tube to provide nutrients for the patient
while sleeping
7. CF’s effect in society
CF affects about 30,000 people in the U.S.
and about 70,000 world wide
It is most common to find CF in
Caucasians; about 1 in every 3,000 will
have CF
Patients diagnosed with CF are having
dramatic increases in lifespan; it is now
near 30-40, whereas patients in the 1950’s
would most likely not live past 12
