Oxymed blood-sugar
“Normal blood sugar range should be around 70-130 mg/dL, depending on when the last meal was consumed. Learn more about blood sugar level and symptoms of high or low blood sugar.”
The amount of glucose in the blood of a human (or animal) is referred to as either the “blood glucose level” or “blood sugar concentration.” With a healthy pancreas, the human body maintains an ideal blood sugar range by releasing insulin, a hormone which helps the body utilize the glucose in food. If the blood sugar level is either too high or too low, it can be a sign of a possible medical condition.

How to live with type 2 diabetes
The document provides biographical information about the author, Beverleigh Piepers, a registered nurse with 25 years of experience. It describes how she was diagnosed with pre-diabetes after routine blood tests showed elevated blood sugar levels. She was given little information and guidance about type 2 diabetes. This motivated her to conduct extensive research to better understand the condition. The document aims to provide clear and accessible information to help others manage type 2 diabetes.
The unconscious conscience, Dr.Hani Al-Qadhi
A talk organized by the humanities and medicine interest group and SCOME in SQU college of medicine, given by Dr.Hani A-lQadhi a very well renowned teacher and mentor in our college.
A glimpse about the speaker:
-A senior consultant trauma surgeon at Sultan Qaboos University Hospital
-Deputy Head of Department of Surgery at College of Medicine and health sciences, SQU
-Program director of General Surgery Training program at the Oman Medical Specialty board
-Certified from the Royal College of Surgeons, Canada. Finished his residency training in general surgery at the University of British Columbia, Canada.
In this very enlightening presentation he speaks about how politics can influence ethical practice and how doctors should be humans and not political propaganda tools.
English Grammar - Present Simple
The document discusses the use of the present simple tense in English. It provides examples for using the present simple tense to talk about opinions and feelings, facts and truths, and habits and routines. Specifically, it gives example sentences using the present simple tense with different subjects (I, you, we, they) and questions. It also provides adverbs of frequency to describe how often something occurs when discussing habits and routines.

This document discusses factors that influence teachers' use of information and communication technology (ICT) in the classroom. It identifies both non-manipulative factors, such as teachers' characteristics and experience, as well as manipulative factors under the control of schools, such as the availability of ICT support and training. The document concludes that successful ICT integration depends on understanding how these interrelated factors can either facilitate or impede teachers' adoption of new technologies for instruction.
Un Architecture
The enterprise architecture group responded to business pressures by proposing a new technology-enabled business platform. However, initial plans focused too much on technology and lacked business alignment. This led to confusion and rising costs. The greatest IT problem was determined to be managing people's expectations. A new strategic approach was developed that focused on the business problem of enabling innovation. This included crafting a mission, vision, and goals and performing a gap analysis to better understand requirements.

The SIFT algorithm allows for reliable object recognition and image stitching.
A brief history of CALL
The earliest language learning programs followed a linear approach with standardized tasks adapted from textbooks. Later programs incorporated simulations allowing learners to explore multiple paths and see consequences of different actions. Multimedia programs are capable of creating realistic learning situations through images, audio, and video that present real world contexts with greater interactivity. Research led to developments like videodiscs that provided rapid access to video/images and CD-ROMs with less capacity than videodiscs but in a smaller format. Examples of early programs included one using a commercial video adapted for Spanish learning with branching choices, and programs using hypertext capabilities to create customized CALL applications.

Diabetes in World and Bangladesh
This is our team's first presentation on Diabetes of the Public Health course conducted by our faculty Dr. Sanjana Zaman
diabetes.pdf
Diabetes is a chronic health condition that affects how the body converts food into energy. There are two main types of diabetes: type 1 and type 2. In type 1 diabetes, the body doesn't produce enough insulin, a hormone that regulates blood sugar levels. In type 2 diabetes, the body becomes resistant to insulin or doesn't produce enough insulin.
High blood sugar levels associated with diabetes can cause a range of health problems, including nerve damage, kidney disease, and heart disease. Managing diabetes involves monitoring blood sugar levels, taking medications, and making lifestyle changes such as eating a healthy diet and exercising regularly.
If you have diabetes, it's important to work closely with your healthcare provider to develop a treatment plan that meets your individual needs. This may include regular blood sugar testing, taking medications as prescribed, and making lifestyle changes to help manage your condition.
Glucose Monitoring
This document discusses glucose monitoring and the AlphaTRAK blood glucose monitoring system. It notes that there are over 1 million diabetic dogs and cats in the US, many of which are undiagnosed or untreated. Untreated diabetes can lead to serious diseases. Early detection through monitoring symptoms and risk factors is important. The AlphaTRAK system provides accurate glucose readings for pets in just seconds using a small blood sample size. It is validated for veterinary patients and has benefits for managing diabetes.
Diabetes description
This document discusses diabetes, including what it is, types of diabetes, symptoms, how it is transmitted and diagnosed, effects on the body, prevention and control, and screening models for anti-diabetic drugs. It defines diabetes as a metabolic disease involving high blood glucose due to inadequate insulin production or cells not responding to insulin. The major types discussed are type 1, type 2, gestational, and pre-diabetes. Common symptoms and screening tests are also outlined.
Diabetes Presentation
A topic that was requested by one of The Commons At Dallas Ranch to present with the geriatric community.
Metabolic Syndrome and Erectile Dysfunction
1) A 46-year-old man with type 2 diabetes, hypertension, obesity, and dyslipidemia presented with erectile dysfunction. Laboratory tests confirmed metabolic syndrome and hypogonadism.
2) The patient meets criteria for metabolic syndrome according to NCEP-ATP III guidelines due to diabetes, hypertension, abdominal obesity, and low HDL. Hypogonadism was diagnosed based on low total testosterone, free testosterone, and bioavailable testosterone levels.
3) Guidelines recommend screening patients with diabetes and symptoms of hypogonadism for low testosterone. The patient should have been screened for erectile dysfunction due to his risk factors of diabetes and metabolic syndrome.
Diabetes Presentation
Diabetes is a condition where the body cannot properly process glucose due to a lack of insulin or insulin resistance. There are two main types of diabetes: type 1 occurs most often in children/young adults and is caused by the immune system attacking insulin-producing cells, while type 2 accounts for 90-95% of cases and is associated with obesity and physical inactivity. Symptoms can include blurred vision, fatigue, frequent urination, and weight loss. Treatment involves lifestyle changes like diet, exercise, blood sugar monitoring, and sometimes insulin or other medications to control blood sugar levels and prevent complications. Good control is important to avoid damage to organs and tissues.
Diabetes flyer
The document provides information on who should regularly check their blood sugar, how to check blood sugar, and basic diabetes education. People who should regularly check blood sugar include those taking insulin, pregnant women, those unable to control their diabetes, and those experiencing low blood sugar or ketones in their urine. To check blood sugar, one washes their hands, inserts a test strip into a meter, pricks their finger to get a blood sample, touches the strip with blood, and gets the results. The document also defines blood sugar and diabetes, lists common diabetes symptoms and causes, and provides blood sugar and A1C goals.
Glucose
The document discusses key aspects of glucose monitoring and diabetes management in dogs and cats. It notes that an estimated 1.43 million dogs and cats in the US have diabetes, with over 600,000 cases being undiagnosed or untreated. Untreated diabetes can lead to serious health issues. The AlphaTRAK blood glucose monitoring system is presented as an accurate and easy-to-use option for veterinarians and pet owners to monitor glucose levels and help manage diabetes treatment.
Health Screening Brochure
This document provides information about health screening services offered by Healthcare Screening Ireland to companies, organizations, and sports clubs. It describes a variety of screening tests that can be performed, such as cholesterol, diabetes, lung function, blood pressure, cardiac, vision, osteoporosis, and other tests. The benefits of health screening for both employers and employees are highlighted, such as identifying potential health issues to reduce absenteeism and improve productivity and health.
HCNW-presenter
The document promotes a health screening service called Health Check North West that provides arterial tests to detect potential health risks before symptoms arise. The tests measure arterial stiffness, blood pressure, and biological age in a quick, painless, and non-invasive way. Getting regular screenings through this service can help clients maintain healthy arteries and reduce their risk of heart attacks, strokes, and other issues. The screening is also promoted as a valuable health benefit that companies can provide for employees.
How to relationship between body wight and pre diabetes
This document summarizes a study on risk factors for pre-diabetes among persons in Sri Lanka. The study aimed to identify pre-diabetes patients in a local area and examine relationships between pre-diabetes risk level, fasting blood sugar, age, body weight, physical activity, and lifestyle. Questionnaires were used to assess risk factors. Statistical analysis found no significant relationships between body weight and fasting blood sugar, age, risk level, or work pressure. The results suggest other unknown factors influence body weight more than the variables examined in this study.

Gene Expression System-viral gene delivery Mpharm(Pharamaceutics)
Gene therapy can be broadly defined as the transfer of genetic material to cure a disease or at least to improve the clinical status of a patient.
One of the basic concepts of gene therapy is to transform viruses into genetic shuttles, which will deliver the gene of interest into the target cells.
Safe methods have been devised to do this, using several viral and non-viral vectors.
In the future, this technique may allow doctors to treat a disorder by inserting a gene into a patient's cells instead of using drugs or surgery.
The biggest hurdle faced by medical research in gene therapy is the availability of effective gene-carrying vectors that meet all of the following criteria:
Protection of transgene or genetic cargo from degradative action of systemic and endonucleases,
Delivery of genetic material to the target site, i.e., either cell cytoplasm or nucleus,
Low potential of triggering unwanted immune responses or genotoxicity,
Economical and feasible availability for patients .
Viruses are naturally evolved vehicles that efficiently transfer their genes into host cells.
Choice of viral vector is dependent on gene transfer efficiency, capacity to carry foreign genes, toxicity, stability, immune responses towards viral antigens and potential viral recombination.
There are a wide variety of vectors used to deliver DNA or oligo nucleotides into mammalian cells, either in vitro or in vivo.
The most common vector system based on retroviruses, adenoviruses, herpes simplex viruses, adeno associated viruses.

GASTROINTESTINAL INFECTIONS AND GASTRITIS
Osvaldo Bernardo Muchanga
Gastrointestinal Infections
GASTROINTESTINAL INFECTIONS result from the ingestion of pathogens that cause infections at the level of this tract, generally being transmitted by food, water and hands contaminated by microorganisms such as E. coli, Salmonella, Shigella, Vibrio cholerae, Campylobacter, Staphylococcus, Rotavirus among others that are generally contained in feces, thus configuring a FECAL-ORAL type of transmission.
Among the factors that lead to the occurrence of gastrointestinal infections are the hygienic and sanitary deficiencies that characterize our markets and other places where raw or cooked food is sold, poor environmental sanitation in communities, deficiencies in water treatment (or in the process of its plumbing), risky hygienic-sanitary habits (not washing hands after major and/or minor needs), among others.
These are generally consequences (signs and symptoms) resulting from gastrointestinal infections: diarrhea, vomiting, fever and malaise, among others.
The treatment consists of replacing lost liquids and electrolytes (drinking drinking water and other recommended liquids, including consumption of juicy fruits such as papayas, apples, pears, among others that contain water in their composition).
To prevent this, it is necessary to promote health education, improve the hygienic-sanitary conditions of markets and communities in general as a way of promoting, preserving and prolonging PUBLIC HEALTH.
Gastritis and Gastric Health
Gastric Health is one of the most relevant concerns in human health, with gastrointestinal infections being among the main illnesses that affect humans.
Among gastric problems, we have GASTRITIS AND GASTRIC ULCERS as the main public health problems. Gastritis and gastric ulcers normally result from inflammation and corrosion of the walls of the stomach (gastric mucosa) and are generally associated (caused) by the bacterium Helicobacter pylor, which, according to the literature, this bacterium settles on these walls (of the stomach) and starts to release urease that ends up altering the normal pH of the stomach (acid), which leads to inflammation and corrosion of the mucous membranes and consequent gastritis or ulcers, respectively.
In addition to bacterial infections, gastritis and gastric ulcers are associated with several factors, with emphasis on prolonged fasting, chemical substances including drugs, alcohol, foods with strong seasonings including chilli, which ends up causing inflammation of the stomach walls and/or corrosion. of the same, resulting in the appearance of wounds and consequent gastritis or ulcers, respectively.
Among patients with gastritis and/or ulcers, one of the dilemmas is associated with the foods to consume in order to minimize the sensation of pain and discomfort. Helminthiasis or Worm infestation in Children for Nursing students

Pharmacology of Prostaglandins, Thromboxanes and Leukotrienes
This presentation gives information on the pharmacology of Prostaglandins, Thromboxanes and Leukotrienes i.e. Eicosanoids. Eicosanoids are signaling molecules derived from polyunsaturated fatty acids like arachidonic acid. They are involved in complex control over inflammation, immunity, and the central nervous system. Eicosanoids are synthesized through the enzymatic oxidation of fatty acids by cyclooxygenase and lipoxygenase enzymes. They have short half-lives and act locally through autocrine and paracrine signaling.

Pharmacology of Drugs for Congestive Heart Failure
Congestive Heart failure is caused by low cardiac output and high sympathetic discharge. Diuretics reduce preload, ACE inhibitors lower afterload, beta blockers reduce sympathetic activity, and digitalis has inotropic effects. Newer medications target vasodilation and myosin activation to improve heart efficiency while lowering energy requirements. Combination therapy, following an assessment of cardiac function and volume status, is the most effective strategy to heart failure care.

Pharmacology of 5-hydroxytryptamine and Antagonist
5-hydroxytryptamine or 5-HT or Serotonin is a neurotransmitter that serves a range of roles in the human body. It is sometimes referred to as the happy chemical since it promotes overall well-being and happiness.
It is mostly found in the brain, intestines, and blood platelets.
5-HT is utilised to transport messages between nerve cells, is known to be involved in smooth muscle contraction, and adds to overall well-being and pleasure, among other benefits. 5-HT regulates the body's sleep-wake cycles and internal clock by acting as a precursor to melatonin.
It is hypothesised to regulate hunger, emotions, motor, cognitive, and autonomic processes.
