This document discusses drugs used to treat hyperacidity and gastric ulcers. It begins with an introduction to hyperacidity and ulcers, then describes the regulation of gastric acid secretion and mechanisms of acid secretion. It classifies common drug treatments for ulcers such as H2 receptor antagonists, proton pump inhibitors, prostaglandins, and antimicrobials. It also discusses FDA-approved treatment regimens for Helicobacter pylori infections. In conclusion, it notes that while acid secretion plays a role in ulcers, other defensive and offensive factors are also involved, and current drug treatments aim to reduce acid secretion to provide relief while having various side effects.
Proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) block the gastric H,K-ATPase, inhibiting gastric acid secretion. This effect enables healing of peptic ulcers, gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), Barrett's esophagus, and Zollinger-Ellison syndrome, as well as the eradication of Helicobacter pylori as part of combination regimens.Proton-pump inhibitors (PPIs) are a class of medications that cause a profound and prolonged reduction of stomach acid production. They do so by irreversibly inhibiting the stomach's H+/K+ ATPase proton pump.[1]
They are the most potent inhibitors of acid secretion available.[2] Proton-pump inhibitors have largely superseded the H2-receptor antagonists, a group of medications with similar effects but a different mode of action, and antacids.[3]
PPIs are among the most widely sold medications in the world. The class of proton-pump inhibitor medications is on the World Health Organization's List of Essential Medicines.[4][5] Omeprazole is the specific listed example.[4][5]
Mechanism of action
The activation of PPIs
Proton pump inhibitors act by irreversibly blocking the hydrogen/potassium adenosine triphosphatase enzyme system (the H+/K+ ATPase, or, more commonly, the gastric proton pump) of the gastric parietal cells.[71] The proton pump is the terminal stage in gastric acid secretion, being directly responsible for secreting H+ ions into the gastric lumen, making it an ideal target for inhibiting acid secretion.[citation needed]Because the H,K-ATPase is the final step of acid secretion, an inhibitor of this enzyme is more effective than receptor antagonists in suppressing gastric acid secretion.[72] All of these drugs inhibit the gastric H,K-ATPase by covalent binding, so the duration of their effect is longer than expected from their levels in the blood.[73]
Targeting the terminal step in acid production, as well as the irreversible nature of the inhibition, results in a class of medications that are significantly more effective than H2 antagonists and reduce gastric acid secretion by up to 99%.[2

Both duodenal and gastric ulcer diseases are closely associated with Helicobacter pylori infection. An infected individual has an estimated lifetime risk of 10 -20% for the development of peptic ulcer disease, which is at least 3-4 fold higher than in non-infected subjects. Many drugs are being used as inhibitors of acid secretion and antacids are also effectively used. New potential drugs are also developed and introduced for acid related disease. Combination therapy like triple and quadruple therapy more effective for removal of Helicobacter pylori. Homeopathy and Ayurvedic therapy are also consider as treatment of ulcer. Role of surgery can be option for the bleeding ulcer or ant severe case.

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.

We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.

This is a presentation by Dada Robert in a Your Skill Boost masterclass organised by the Excellence Foundation for South Sudan (EFSS) on Saturday, the 25th and Sunday, the 26th of May 2024.
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.

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.

DRUGS ACTING ON
HYPER ACIDITY AND
GASTRIC ULCERS
1
3. INTRODUCTION:
HYPER ACIDITY: It generally occurs when there is
excess secretion of acids from gastric glands of the
stomach.
ULCER: It is defined as a local defect or erosion of the
surface of organ produced by inflammation of tissue.

5. Ulcer is an erosion in the stomach and is caused by the imbalance
between aggressive and protective factors in GIT and infection of
gastric mucosa with H.Pylori.
Aggressive Factors
Acid (Hcl)
Drugs (NSAIDs)
H. pylori
Defensive Factors
Mucus,
bicarbonate layer
Prostaglandins
5
6. REGULATION OF GASTRIC ACID SECRETION:
Gastric acid secretion is a complex, continuous process in
which multiple central and peripheral factors contribute to a
common endpoint: the secretion of H+ by parietal cells.
1. Neuronal control - Controlled enteric nervous system and
secretes Acetylcholine.
2. Hormonal control - Includes both endocrine and paracrine.
Hormones of gastrointestinal tract
Endocrine secretions – Gastrin.
Paracrine secretions - Histamine and Prostaglandin.
6
7. In parietal cells, the cyclic AMP and the Ca2+-dependent
pathways activate H+/K+-ATPase (the proton pump), which
exchanges hydrogen and potassium ions across the parietal
cell membrane.

12. Histamine H2 receptor antagonist:
Eg: Cimetidine,
Ranitidine,
Famotidine,
Nizatidine.
Mechanism of Action (MOA):
These agents inhibit gastric acid secretion by competitively blocking the
binding of histamine to H2 receptors. These agents reduce the intracellular
concentrations of cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) and thereby,
decreases gastric acid secretion.
Adverse effects:
Diarrhoea, dizziness, muscle pain, hypotention, gynaecomastia, impotence.12
13. Proton Pump Inhibitors:
Eg: Esomeprazole
Lansoprazole,
Omeprazole,
Rabeprazole,
Pantoprazole.
MOA:
Proton pump actively transports protons H+ into stomach lumen and K+
ions back to the parietal cells with hydrolysis of ATP.
Proton pump inhibitors are the drugs which reduces the acid secretion of
the stomach.
Drug binds irreversibly into proton pump and prevents active transport of
proton and this dramatically decreases acid secretion in stomach.
Adverse effects:
Nausea, abdominal pain, constipation, flatulence, Subacute myopathy,
headaches, and skin rashes.13
14. Prostaglandins:
Eg: Misoprostol
MOA:
Prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) and prostacyclin (PGI2) are the major prostaglandins
synthesized by the gastric mucosa.
These bind to the EP3 receptor on parietal cell thereby decreasing intracellular
cyclic AMP and gastric acid secretion.
PGE2 also can prevent gastric injury by cytoprotective effects that include
stimulation of mucin and bicarbonate secretion.
Contraindications:
It is contraindicated during pregnancy because it can increase uterine
contractility.
Adverse effects:
Diarrhoea and nausea are the most common adverse effects .14
15. Antimuscarinic agents :
Eg : Dicyclomine,
Atropine.
MOA:
Muscarinic receptor antagonist can inhibit the gastrointestinal
motility and secretory activity.
Adverse effects: many side effects limits its use.
cardiac arrhythmias,
dry mouth,
constipation,
urinary retention.
15
16. Antacids:
Eg : NaHCO3, CaCO3.
Salts of aluminum [Al(OH)3] & Magnesium [Mg(OH)2],
MOA:
Antacids are weak bases that react with (neutralize) gastric acid to form water and
a salt, thereby diminishing gastric acidity. Because pepsin is inactive at a pH
greater than 4, antacids also reduce pepsin activity.
Adverse effects:
Salts of Mg, Al combinations are used because of Mg & Al itself produces
diarrhoea & constipation respectively, nausea and esophageal reflux are the
common side effects.
16
17. Mucosal protective agents:
Eg : Sucralfate,
Carbenoxolone,
Bismuth chelate.
MOA:
These compounds, known as cytoprotective compounds, have several actions
that enhance mucosal protection mechanisms, thereby preventing mucosal
injury, reducing inflammation, and healing existing ulcers.
Adverse effects:
Constipation, dryness of mouth, abdominal discomfort.
17
18. Treatment for Helicobacter Pylori
H. pylori is a spiral-shaped, pH-sensitive, gram-negative bacterium that
resides between the mucus layer and surface epithelial cells in the stomach.
Eg: Clarithromycin,
Amoxicillin
MOA:
The antimicrobial agents acts on bacterial cell wall synthesis and bacterial
protein synthesis.
Adverse effects:
Epigastric pain, Hypersensitivity reactions.
18
19. FDA-Approved Treatment Regimen for H. pylori
Infection
Omeprazole 20 mg BID + Clarithromycin 500 mg BID +
Amoxicillin 1 g BID for 10 days.
Lansoprazole 30 mg BID +Clarithromycin 500 mg BID +
Amoxicillin 1 g BID for 10 days.
Amoxicillin/Clarithromycin + Metronidazole + Omeprazole –
triple therapy.
Bismuth subsalicylate 525 mg QID + Metronidazole 250 mg
QID + Tetracycline 500 mg QID X 14 days + H2 receptor
antagonist – quadruple therapy.
19
20. Several kits are also available viz.., pylomax kit and HP kit.
One kit taken daily two doses.
HP kit consists of Omeprazole + Amoxicillin + Tinidazole, 2
tablets each.
Pylomax kit consists of Amoxicillin + Clarithromycin +
Metronidazole, 2 tablets each
20
21. CONCLUSION:
Ulcers were previously thought due to increase in
offensive factors namely acid and pepsin, but it has been
found that acid secretion is either normal or below normal
in gastric ulcer patients, and that 40 - 70 % cases of
duodenal ulcer patients show acidity within normal range.
suggesting that other factors are also involved in
ulcerogenesis.
Hence the interest then shifted to the defensive factors,
whose imbalance with the offensive factors may be the
cause of ulcers. Most of the anti-secretory drugs reduce
acid secretion, thus giving immediate symptomatic relief.
Although newer drugs are discovered, still every drugs has
its own side effects.21
