This document discusses personality, defining it as reasonably stable patterns of emotions, thoughts and behaviors that distinguish individuals. It notes that temperament refers to hereditary personality aspects like moods and adaptability. Personality is shaped by genetic factors, family/cultural environment, birth order and parenting characteristics. The document explores theories of temperament and outlines nine dimensions identified by Thomas and Chess. It also examines the role of culture in personality development and questions whether personality remains stable across situations.
1. Bowen's theory describes an evolutionary process where families balance the needs for intimacy and individuality.
2. Psychological problems stem from a family's inability to effectively manage stress, leading to increased reactivity and fusion between members.

Personal And Professional Development boaraileeanne
The document discusses personality development and its relationship to human relations. It defines personality as a mask or characteristics that impress others. Personality development refers to sequential changes in physical, intellectual, character, temperament, social, and spiritual aspects of a person. It also discusses myths about personality, psychodynamics of personality involving the id, ego and superego, objectives of personality enhancement, and agents that influence development like family, school, peers and media. The theories of development include quantitative stages defined by age and qualitative stages defined by maturity levels. It outlines aspects of personality such as physical, intellectual, moral, temperamental, social and spiritual.

Biological factors include genetics and physical characteristics. Cultural factors refer to the traditions, customs and beliefs of one's culture. Social factors comprise the relationships, interactions and environment within families, organizations, communities and societies. Situational factors can cause a person's behavior and responses to differ depending on the context or situation. All of these factors collectively shape a person's unique personality over time.
Bowen's Family Systems Theory conceptualizes the family as an emotional unit where the relationships between members are interdependent. Changes within one member can impact the entire family system. Key concepts include differentiation of self, triangles, the nuclear family emotional system, and multigenerational transmission of differentiation levels. The goal of Bowen's therapy is to reduce anxiety and raise each family member's level of differentiation through addressing symptoms like projection, triangulation, and fusion.
This document discusses personal relationships and responsibilities within relationships. It begins by defining personal relationships as interactions between individuals that help fulfill fundamental needs for survival and belonging.

- Emmily C. Domingo earned her MA in guidance and counseling. She was born in 1913 in Tennessee and graduated from the University of Tennessee with a bachelor's degree in science in 1934. She furthered her education at the University of Tennessee Medical School.
- Murray Bowen was born in 1913 in Tennessee. He received his medical degree from the University of Tennessee in 1937. He worked as an intern in New York before joining the military for five years, where he became interested in psychiatry. In 1954, he joined the National Institute of Mental Health and began developing his theory of family systems.
- Virginia Satir was born in 1916 and died in 1988. She started as a teacher but became an internationally renowned
This document provides an overview of the psychology of personality. It discusses several key aspects:
- Personality arises from both genetic and environmental influences, with genetics accounting for about half the differences between people.
- Temperament refers to innate traits like harm avoidance and novelty seeking, while character comprises traits like self-directedness that develop through socialization.
- Psyche involves consciousness and self-awareness. Personality integrates all three dimensions in a complex adaptive system.
- Several theories are described briefly, including psychodynamic, behaviorist, cognitive, and social-cognitive approaches to understanding personality. Defense mechanisms, reinforcement history, and reciprocal determinism between person and environment are highlighted.
Kin recognition is important for human survival and reproduction. Like other animals, humans have evolved psychological mechanisms to distinguish kin from non-kin in order to direct helping behavior towards closer genetic relatives. Kin recognition relies on perceptual cues related to familiarity, such as spatial location and time spent together from an early age, and similarity cues, including physical resemblance, name, and smell. These cues can be imperfect, resulting in kin being mistaken for non-kin at times.
Attachment theory proposes that secure attachment to caregivers in infancy and early childhood is crucial for healthy social-emotional development. John Bowlby and Mary Ainsworth were influential researchers who developed and tested attachment theory. Bowlby proposed that infants have an innate need to form attachments, and that secure attachment provides a child with a safe base to explore from and comfort when distressed. Ainsworth identified patterns of secure, avoidant, resistant, and disorganized attachment based on a child's response to separation from and reunion with their caregiver. Insecure attachment can result from inconsistent or neglectful caregiving and is associated with later psychopathology. Attachment theory is important in understanding the development of relationships and mental health.
The document discusses the importance of interpersonal skills and relationships. It notes that Albert Einstein believed people are connected to others and depend on relationships for happiness. Relationships go through different stages of development. Building strong relationships requires interpersonal skills like communication, trust, self-disclosure, giving feedback, and self-awareness. Developing these skills benefits personal well-being, society, and allows people to reach their full potential.

Family Communication Lecture Family Communication LectureTrackerCrazy
Family systems theory views the family as an emotional unit where each member's behavior impacts others. McMaster's model outlines five family functions: gender socialization, nurturing, individual development, kinship maintenance, and basic resources. Dysfunctional families with low quality relationships can negatively impact members' mental health through affectionless control, destructive conflict, lack of cohesion, and abuse. Healthy family communication and attachment promote well-being.
Murray Bowen developed the Bowen family systems theory in the mid-20th century. He believed that the family is an emotional unit and that human behavior is influenced by a person's ability to balance intimacy with differentiation from their family. Bowen identified eight concepts including differentiation of self, triangles, multigenerational transmission process, and nuclear family emotional processes. The theory views the family as an emotional unit and uses systems thinking to understand family interactions and relationships.
The document discusses the Big Five Factor personality model. It describes the five factors - Extraversion, Agreeableness, Conscientiousness, Neuroticism, and Openness to Experience. Extraversion relates to energy levels and sociability. Agreeableness indicates friendliness and cooperation. Conscientiousness is about self-discipline and achievement orientation. Neuroticism relates to stress, anxiety, and emotional stability. Openness involves intellectual curiosity and creativity. The document provides descriptions and examples of each factor and how they relate to behaviors and tendencies in individuals.
This document discusses family systems theory and approaches to family therapy. It defines the family as a system and discusses how family therapists view problems arising from dysfunctional relationships and interactions within the family system. Several major approaches to family therapy are summarized, including psychoanalytic, structural, strategic, and behavioral. The document also covers stages of the family life cycle, characteristics of healthy vs unhealthy families, types of family therapy interventions, and goals and techniques of the initial, working, and termination phases of family therapy.
CLASSIFICATION OF H1 ANTIHISTAMINICS-
FIRST GENERATION ANTIHISTAMINICS-
1)HIGHLY SEDATIVE-DIPHENHYDRAMINE,DIMENHYDRINATE,PROMETHAZINE,HYDROXYZINE 2)MODERATELY SEDATIVE- PHENARIMINE,CYPROHEPTADINE, MECLIZINE,CINNARIZINE
3)MILD SEDATIVE-CHLORPHENIRAMINE,DEXCHLORPHENIRAMINE
TRIPROLIDINE,CLEMASTINE
SECOND GENERATION ANTIHISTAMINICS-FEXOFENADINE,
LORATADINE,DESLORATADINE,CETIRIZINE,LEVOCETIRIZINE,
AZELASTINE,MIZOLASTINE,EBASTINE,RUPATADINE. Mechanism of action of 2nd generation antihistaminics-
These drugs competitively antagonize actions of
histamine at the H1 receptors.
Pharmacological actions-
Antagonism of histamine-The H1 antagonists effectively block histamine induced bronchoconstriction, contraction of intestinal and other smooth muscle and triple response especially wheal, flare and itch. Constriction of larger blood vessel by histamine is also antagonized.
2) Antiallergic actions-Many manifestations of immediate hypersensitivity (type I reactions)are suppressed. Urticaria, itching and angioedema are well controlled.3) CNS action-The older antihistamines produce variable degree of CNS depression.But in case of 2nd gen antihistaminics there is less CNS depressant property as these cross BBB to significantly lesser extent.
4) Anticholinergic action- many H1 blockers
in addition antagonize muscarinic actions of ACh. BUT IN 2ND gen histaminics there is Higher H1 selectivitiy : no anticholinergic side effects

PGx Analysis in VarSeq: A User’s PerspectiveGolden Helix
Since our release of the PGx capabilities in VarSeq, we’ve had a few months to gather some insights from various use cases. Some users approach PGx workflows by means of array genotyping or what seems to be a growing trend of adding the star allele calling to the existing NGS pipeline for whole genome data. Luckily, both approaches are supported with the VarSeq software platform. The genotyping method being used will also dictate what the scope of the tertiary analysis will be. For example, are your PGx reports a standalone pipeline or would your lab’s goal be to handle a dual-purpose workflow and report on PGx + Diagnostic findings.
The purpose of this webcast is to:
Discuss and demonstrate the approaches with array and NGS genotyping methods for star allele calling to prep for downstream analysis.
Following genotyping, explore alternative tertiary workflow concepts in VarSeq to handle PGx reporting.
Moreover, we will include insights users will need to consider when validating their PGx workflow for all possible star alleles and options you have for automating your PGx analysis for large number of samples. Please join us for a session dedicated to the application of star allele genotyping and subsequent PGx workflows in our VarSeq software.

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.

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.

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.

Editor's Notes
Bowen worked in the psychiatry field in the 1950’s, and came to an understanding that was different than his day. The basic premise is that the core of emotional functioning and learning was not the individual – but in the family as a whole – hence the family system.
Families often also function by norms and expectations to maintain balance (What are some of your families? Which ones feel helpful, which feel confining?)
The system is an organism of it’s own which functions to maintain some type of stability ot “homeostasis” (even if the stable pattern is harmful to individuals, often it feels “safer” or normal.
The family organism faces stressors or threats (anxiety, financial, generational, psychogical, societal, spiritual) it often reacts by “doubling down” into familiar patterns. Basically – threats cause emotional intensity, which creates a ripple effect of reactivity.
Family therapist Salvador Minuchin also saw that this family organism had structural patterns when threatened, which often complicates boundaries between family members (i.e, enmeshment, disengagement)
Optimal family system is able to navigate the particularity of each individual while maintaining connection and closeness
Different things can set off family anxiety (fear, preservation, emotional reactivity) - some are internal – conflicts, medical issues, boundaries, power/ hierarchy, personality – some, are external – job loss, social norms - etc. The system reacts “automatically” as a whole often to try to create a sense of stabilization.
