Flu Vaccine Alert in Bangalore Karnatakaaddon Scans
As flu season approaches, health officials in Bangalore, Karnataka, are urging residents to get their flu vaccinations. The seasonal flu, while common, can lead to severe health complications, particularly for vulnerable populations such as young children, the elderly, and those with underlying health conditions.
Dr. Vidisha Kumari, a leading epidemiologist in Bangalore, emphasizes the importance of getting vaccinated. "The flu vaccine is our best defense against the influenza virus. It not only protects individuals but also helps prevent the spread of the virus in our communities," he says.
This year, the flu season is expected to coincide with a potential increase in other respiratory illnesses. The Karnataka Health Department has launched an awareness campaign highlighting the significance of flu vaccinations. They have set up multiple vaccination centers across Bangalore, making it convenient for residents to receive their shots.
To encourage widespread vaccination, the government is also collaborating with local schools, workplaces, and community centers to facilitate vaccination drives. Special attention is being given to ensuring that the vaccine is accessible to all, including marginalized communities who may have limited access to healthcare.
Residents are reminded that the flu vaccine is safe and effective. Common side effects are mild and may include soreness at the injection site, mild fever, or muscle aches. These side effects are generally short-lived and far less severe than the flu itself.
Healthcare providers are also stressing the importance of continuing COVID-19 precautions. Wearing masks, practicing good hand hygiene, and maintaining social distancing are still crucial, especially in crowded places.
Protect yourself and your loved ones by getting vaccinated. Together, we can help keep Bangalore healthy and safe this flu season. For more information on vaccination centers and schedules, residents can visit the Karnataka Health Department’s official website or follow their social media pages.
Stay informed, stay safe, and get your flu shot today!
Ethanol (CH3CH2OH), or beverage alcohol, is a two-carbon alcohol
that is rapidly distributed in the body and brain. Ethanol alters many
neurochemical systems and has rewarding and addictive properties. It
is the oldest recreational drug and likely contributes to more morbidity,
mortality, and public health costs than all illicit drugs combined. The
5th edition of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders
(DSM-5) integrates alcohol abuse and alcohol dependence into a single
disorder called alcohol use disorder (AUD), with mild, moderate,
and severe subclassifications (American Psychiatric Association, 2013).
In the DSM-5, all types of substance abuse and dependence have been
combined into a single substance use disorder (SUD) on a continuum
from mild to severe. A diagnosis of AUD requires that at least two of
the 11 DSM-5 behaviors be present within a 12-month period (mild
AUD: 2–3 criteria; moderate AUD: 4–5 criteria; severe AUD: 6–11 criteria).
The four main behavioral effects of AUD are impaired control over
drinking, negative social consequences, risky use, and altered physiological
effects (tolerance, withdrawal). This chapter presents an overview
of the prevalence and harmful consequences of AUD in the U.S.,
the systemic nature of the disease, neurocircuitry and stages of AUD,
comorbidities, fetal alcohol spectrum disorders, genetic risk factors, and
pharmacotherapies for AUD.

Recomendações da OMS sobre cuidados maternos e neonatais para uma experiência pós-natal positiva.
Em consonância com os ODS – Objetivos do Desenvolvimento Sustentável e a Estratégia Global para a Saúde das Mulheres, Crianças e Adolescentes, e aplicando uma abordagem baseada nos direitos humanos, os esforços de cuidados pós-natais devem expandir-se para além da cobertura e da simples sobrevivência, de modo a incluir cuidados de qualidade.
Estas diretrizes visam melhorar a qualidade dos cuidados pós-natais essenciais e de rotina prestados às mulheres e aos recém-nascidos, com o objetivo final de melhorar a saúde e o bem-estar materno e neonatal.
Uma “experiência pós-natal positiva” é um resultado importante para todas as mulheres que dão à luz e para os seus recém-nascidos, estabelecendo as bases para a melhoria da saúde e do bem-estar a curto e longo prazo. Uma experiência pós-natal positiva é definida como aquela em que as mulheres, pessoas que gestam, os recém-nascidos, os casais, os pais, os cuidadores e as famílias recebem informação consistente, garantia e apoio de profissionais de saúde motivados; e onde um sistema de saúde flexível e com recursos reconheça as necessidades das mulheres e dos bebês e respeite o seu contexto cultural.
Estas diretrizes consolidadas apresentam algumas recomendações novas e já bem fundamentadas sobre cuidados pós-natais de rotina para mulheres e neonatos que recebem cuidados no pós-parto em unidades de saúde ou na comunidade, independentemente dos recursos disponíveis.
É fornecido um conjunto abrangente de recomendações para cuidados durante o período puerperal, com ênfase nos cuidados essenciais que todas as mulheres e recém-nascidos devem receber, e com a devida atenção à qualidade dos cuidados; isto é, a entrega e a experiência do cuidado recebido. Estas diretrizes atualizam e ampliam as recomendações da OMS de 2014 sobre cuidados pós-natais da mãe e do recém-nascido e complementam as atuais diretrizes da OMS sobre a gestão de complicações pós-natais.
O estabelecimento da amamentação e o manejo das principais intercorrências é contemplada.
Recomendamos muito.
Vamos discutir essas recomendações no nosso curso de pós-graduação em Aleitamento no Instituto Ciclos.

ELISA
(Enzyme-linked Immunosorbent assay)
Introduction, Principle and Applications
INTRODUCTION:
ELISA is the basic assay technique, known as enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (also referred to
as EIA: Enzyme Immunoassay) that is carried out to detect and measure antibodies, hormones,
peptides and proteins in the blood.
Antibodies are blood proteins produced in response to a specific antigen. It helps to examine the
presence of antibodies in the body, in case of certain infectious diseases.
Type:
1. Direct ELISA
2. Indirect ELISA
3. Sandwich ELISA
4. Competitive ELISA
1. Direct ELISA:
In a direct ELISA, the antigen is immobilized to the surface of the multi-well plate and detected
with an antibody specific for the antigen.
The antibody is directly conjugated to HRP (One commonly used enzyme conjugate
in ELISA is horseradish peroxidase. Horseradish peroxidase) or other detection molecules.
2. Indirect ELISA:
Indirect ELISA detects the presence of an antibody in a sample.
The antigen is attached to the wells of the microtitre plate.
A sample containing the antibodies is added to the antigen-coated wells for binding with the
antigen.
The free primary antibodies are washed away and the antigen-antibody complex is detected by
adding a secondary antibody conjugated with an enzyme that can bind with the primary
antibody.
2. Prepared by: Prachand M.S. Rajbhandari Page 2
Note: Please, for more details refer books
All the free secondary antibodies are washed away. A specific substrate is added which gives a
coloured product.
The absorbance of the coloured product is measured by spectrophotometry.
3. Sandwich ELISA:
Sandwich ELISA helps to detect the presence of antigen in a sample.
The microtitre well is coated by the antibody.
The sample containing the antigen is added to the well and washed to remove free antigens.
Then an enzyme-linked secondary antibody, which binds to another epitope on the antigen, is
added. The well is washed to remove any free secondary antibodies.
The enzyme-specific substrate is added to the plate to form a coloured product, which can be
measured.
4. Competitive ELISA:
Primary antibody (unlabeled) is incubated with sample antigen.
Antibody-antigen complexes are then added to 96-well plates which are pre-coated with the
same antigen.
Unbound antibody is removed by washing the plate. (The more antigen in the sample, the less
antibody will be able to bind to the antigen in the well, hence "competition.").
The secondary antibody that is specific to the primary antibody and conjugated with an enzyme
is added.
A substrate is added, and remaining enzymes elicit a chromogenic or fluorescent signal.
3. Prepared by: Prachand M.S. Rajbhandari Page 3
Note: Please, for more details refer books
For competitive ELISA, the higher the sample antigen concentration, the weaker the eventual
signal.
PRINCIPLE:
In ELISA, various antigen-antibody combinations are used, always including an enzyme-labeled antigen
or antibody, and enzyme activity is measured colorimetrically.
The enzyme activity is measured using a substrate that changes color when modified by the enzyme.
Light absorption of the product formed after substrate addition is measured and converted to numeric
values.
Depending on the antigen-antibody combination, the assay is called a direct ELISA, indirect ELISA,
sandwich ELISA, competitive ELISA etc.
APPLICATIONS OF ELISA
The applications of ELISA are discussed below:
1. The presence of antibodies and antigens in a sample can be determined.
2. It is used in the food industry to detect any food allergens present.
3. To determine the concentration of serum antibody in a virus test.
4. During a disease outbreak, to evaluate the spread of the disease, e.g. during recent COVID-19 outbreak,
rapid testing kits are being used to determine presence of antibodies in the blood sample.
