Calcium is an essential mineral that makes up 2% of total body weight. Over 99% is stored in bones and teeth, with the remainder distributed in tissues and plasma. Calcium levels are tightly regulated by parathyroid hormone (PTH), calcitonin, vitamin D, and calcium-sensing receptors. PTH increases calcium levels by promoting bone resorption and renal reabsorption, while calcitonin decreases them by inhibiting bone resorption and renal reabsorption. Vitamin D enhances intestinal calcium absorption and bone resorption. Bisphosphonates are effective anti-resorptive drugs used to treat osteoporosis and other bone diseases by inhibiting osteoclast activity and bone res
Psychiatric conditions are divided into psychosis, neurosis, and affective disorders. Psychosis involves loss of contact with reality and includes schizophrenia. Neurosis involves anxiety disorders like phobias and obsessive-compulsive disorder. Affective disorders are mood disorders like depression and bipolar disorder. Psychotropic drugs treat these conditions by affecting neurotransmitters like dopamine, serotonin, and norepinephrine in the limbic system and other brain areas. Common psychotropic drugs include antipsychotics, antidepressants, and anxiolytics which have multiple mechanisms of action in the brain and body.
Diarrhea is a major cause of morbidity and mortality in developing countries. The mainstay of treatment is to correct fluid and electrolyte imbalance through oral rehydration therapy or IV fluids. Specific treatment depends on the cause and includes antimicrobial agents for infectious diarrhea and anti-motility drugs for non-infectious diarrhea. Anti-motility drugs like loperamide work by increasing intestinal transit time through mu and delta opioid receptors while anticholinergics decrease bowel motility and secretion. Antimicrobials are useful for specific infections while anti-inflammatory drugs are used for conditions like ulcerative colitis.
This document provides preparation instructions for CT, MRI, and contrast administration. It outlines screening requirements like medical history, allergies, medications, and creatinine tests. For CT and MRI, it instructs patients to remove metallic objects and drink water. CT patients may need premedication for contrast allergies. MRI screening identifies absolute contraindications like pacemakers. Gadolinium administration requires creatinine testing in high risk patients due to risks of nephrogenic systemic fibrosis. Pregnant women should only have MRI if absolutely necessary due to risks of intravenous gadolinium.
This document discusses different types of burns including thermal, electrical, chemical and radiation burns. It describes the pathophysiology of burns including injury to the airway and lungs, inflammation and circulatory changes, and other life-threatening events. It outlines the assessment, grading, treatment and management of burn patients in the hospital and after care including wound care, fluid resuscitation, antibiotics and surgery. Specific treatments are discussed for different burn depths and non-thermal burns.
This document discusses various psychotherapies and behavioral therapies used to treat psychiatric disorders. It describes psychotherapy as deliberately establishing a relationship between therapist and patient to modify symptoms, behaviors, and promote growth. Approaches discussed include psychodynamic, cognitive-behavioral, humanistic, and behavioral therapies. Behavioral therapy aims to modify maladaptive behaviors through conditioning, using techniques like systematic desensitization, flooding, positive/negative reinforcement, and punishment. Cognitive behavioral therapy combines cognitive and behavioral techniques to change negative thoughts and behaviors. Exposure and response prevention is also discussed as a type of CBT used for anxiety disorders like OCD.
This document discusses common health issues that adolescents face including depression, anxiety, substance abuse, eating disorders, risk-taking behaviors, and death from accidents or suicide. It outlines the typical stages of adolescent development and notes that anxiety disorders often co-occur with depression. Depression affects 1-6% of community adolescents and prevalence is higher in females. Anxiety is characterized by apprehension disproportionate to the situation and impacts functioning. Alcohol, marijuana, and tobacco are often gateway drugs to more addictive substances. Prevention strategies address psychoeducation, social support programs, and policy measures like gun control and graduated driver's licensing.
This document discusses various causes of acute visual loss including central retinal artery occlusion, ischemic central retinal vein occlusion, retinal detachment involving the macular area, massive vitreous hemorrhage, acute congestive glaucoma, acute iridocyclitis, and chemical or mechanical injuries to the eyeball. It provides details on symptoms, signs, risk factors, treatments, and complications for each condition. Central retinal artery occlusion can cause profound and permanent visual loss within hours if not treated immediately with measures like ocular massage and intravenous medications. Retinal detachment may cause dark spots or flashes of light and its treatment aims to seal retinal breaks and drain subretinal fluid. Chemical injuries especially from alkalis can cause widespread necrosis and

Cell Therapy Expansion and Challenges in Autoimmune DiseaseHealth Advances
There is increasing confidence that cell therapies will soon play a role in the treatment of autoimmune disorders, but the extent of this impact remains to be seen. Early readouts on autologous CAR-Ts in lupus are encouraging, but manufacturing and cost limitations are likely to restrict access to highly refractory patients. Allogeneic CAR-Ts have the potential to broaden access to earlier lines of treatment due to their inherent cost benefits, however they will need to demonstrate comparable or improved efficacy to established modalities.
In addition to infrastructure and capacity constraints, CAR-Ts face a very different risk-benefit dynamic in autoimmune compared to oncology, highlighting the need for tolerable therapies with low adverse event risk. CAR-NK and Treg-based therapies are also being developed in certain autoimmune disorders and may demonstrate favorable safety profiles. Several novel non-cell therapies such as bispecific antibodies, nanobodies, and RNAi drugs, may also offer future alternative competitive solutions with variable value propositions.
Widespread adoption of cell therapies will not only require strong efficacy and safety data, but also adapted pricing and access strategies. At oncology-based price points, CAR-Ts are unlikely to achieve broad market access in autoimmune disorders, with eligible patient populations that are potentially orders of magnitude greater than the number of currently addressable cancer patients. Developers have made strides towards reducing cell therapy COGS while improving manufacturing efficiency, but payors will inevitably restrict access until more sustainable pricing is achieved.
Despite these headwinds, industry leaders and investors remain confident that cell therapies are poised to address significant unmet need in patients suffering from autoimmune disorders. However, the extent of this impact on the treatment landscape remains to be seen, as the industry rapidly approaches an inflection point.

Overall life span (LS) was 1671.7±1721.6 days and cumulative 5YS reached 62.4%, 10 years – 50.4%, 20 years – 44.6%. 94 LCP lived more than 5 years without cancer (LS=2958.6±1723.6 days), 22 – more than 10 years (LS=5571±1841.8 days). 67 LCP died because of LC (LS=471.9±344 days). AT significantly improved 5YS (68% vs. 53.7%) (P=0.028 by log-rank test). Cox modeling displayed that 5YS of LCP significantly depended on: N0-N12, T3-4, blood cell circuit, cell ratio factors (ratio between cancer cells-CC and blood cells subpopulations), LC cell dynamics, recalcification time, heparin tolerance, prothrombin index, protein, AT, procedure type (P=0.000-0.031). Neural networks, genetic algorithm selection and bootstrap simulation revealed relationships between 5YS and N0-12 (rank=1), thrombocytes/CC (rank=2), segmented neutrophils/CC (3), eosinophils/CC (4), erythrocytes/CC (5), healthy cells/CC (6), lymphocytes/CC (7), stick neutrophils/CC (8), leucocytes/CC (9), monocytes/CC (10). Correct prediction of 5YS was 100% by neural networks computing (error=0.000; area under ROC curve=1.0).
