The document discusses various types of injuries and conditions and their first aid management. It covers fainting, strains, sprains, dislocations, muscle cramps and more. For fainting, it describes causes like lack of food or standing still for long periods. Signs include loss of consciousness. First aid involves laying the person flat and elevating their legs. For sprains and strains, RICE therapy is recommended - rest, ice, compression and elevation. Dislocations involve bones being displaced from joints and shouldn't be reset on site. Muscle cramps can be caused by dehydration and stretched gently once occurring.

Frozen shoulder and homeopathy treatmentPranav Pandya
Frozen shoulder is a disorder in which the shoulder capsule, the connective tissue surrounding the gleno-humeral joint of the shoulder, becomes inflamed and stiff, and grows together with abnormal bands of tissue, called adhesions, greatly restricting motion and causing chronic pain.

Back Pain
Back pain is often a common symptom of many disease conditions and the back pain may range from simple or dull pain to sudden and sharp pain. If the pain persists for few days, it is acute pain whereas if continues for more than 3 months, it is considered as chronic pain. In most cases, back pain may resolve without any treatment however if persists for more than 3 days, medical intervention is necessary.
Neck Pain
The first 7 vertebral bones on the spinal column form the cervical spine and are located in the neck region. The neck bears the weight of the head, allows significant amount of movement, and also less protected than other parts of spine. All these factors make the neck more susceptible to injury or other painful disorders. Common neck pain may occur from muscle strain or tension in everyday activities including poor posture, prolonged use of a computer and sleeping in an uncomfortable position.
Spinal Deformity Surgery
The Spine or backbone provides stability to the upper part of our body. It helps to hold the body upright. It consists of several irregularly shaped bones, called vertebrae appearing in a straight line. The spine has two gentle curves, when looked from the side and appears to be straight when viewed from the front. When these curves are exaggerated, pronounced problems can occur such as back pain, breathing difficulties and fatigue and the condition will be considered as deformity. Spine deformity can be defined as abnormality in the shape, curvature and flexibility of spine.
Spine Injections
Spine injection is a nonsurgical treatment modality recommended for treatment of chronic back pain. Injection of certain medicinal agents relieves the pain by blocking the nerve signals between specific areas of the body and the brain. The treatment approach involves injections of local anaesthetics, steroids, or narcotics into the affected soft tissues, joints, or nerve roots. It may also involve complex nerve blocks and spinal cord stimulation.
Spine Trauma
Spine trauma is damage to the spine caused from a sudden traumatic injury caused by an accidental fall or any other physical injury. Spinal injuries may occur while playing, performing normal activities, operating heavy machines, lifting heavy objects, driving automobiles, or when you suffer a fall. Injury to spine may cause various conditions including fractures, dislocation, partial misalignment (subluxation), disc compression (herniated disc), hematoma (accumulation of blood) and partial or complete tears of ligaments.
Vertebral Fractures
Vertebral compression fractures occur when the normal vertebral body of the spine is squeezed or compressed. The bone collapses when too much pressure is placed on the vertebrae, resulting in pain, limited mobility, loss of height, and spinal deformities. In severe compression fractures the vertebral body is pushed into the spinal canal which will apply pressure on the spinal cord and nerves.

Earliest Galaxies in the JADES Origins Field: Luminosity Function and Cosmic ...Sérgio Sacani
We characterize the earliest galaxy population in the JADES Origins Field (JOF), the deepest
imaging field observed with JWST. We make use of the ancillary Hubble optical images (5 filters
spanning 0.4−0.9µm) and novel JWST images with 14 filters spanning 0.8−5µm, including 7 mediumband filters, and reaching total exposure times of up to 46 hours per filter. We combine all our data
at > 2.3µm to construct an ultradeep image, reaching as deep as ≈ 31.4 AB mag in the stack and
30.3-31.0 AB mag (5σ, r = 0.1” circular aperture) in individual filters. We measure photometric
redshifts and use robust selection criteria to identify a sample of eight galaxy candidates at redshifts
z = 11.5 − 15. These objects show compact half-light radii of R1/2 ∼ 50 − 200pc, stellar masses of
M⋆ ∼ 107−108M⊙, and star-formation rates of SFR ∼ 0.1−1 M⊙ yr−1
. Our search finds no candidates
at 15 < z < 20, placing upper limits at these redshifts. We develop a forward modeling approach to
infer the properties of the evolving luminosity function without binning in redshift or luminosity that
marginalizes over the photometric redshift uncertainty of our candidate galaxies and incorporates the
impact of non-detections. We find a z = 12 luminosity function in good agreement with prior results,
and that the luminosity function normalization and UV luminosity density decline by a factor of ∼ 2.5
from z = 12 to z = 14. We discuss the possible implications of our results in the context of theoretical
models for evolution of the dark matter halo mass function.

THE IMPORTANCE OF MARTIAN ATMOSPHERE SAMPLE RETURN.Sérgio Sacani
The return of a sample of near-surface atmosphere from Mars would facilitate answers to several first-order science questions surrounding the formation and evolution of the planet. One of the important aspects of terrestrial planet formation in general is the role that primary atmospheres played in influencing the chemistry and structure of the planets and their antecedents. Studies of the martian atmosphere can be used to investigate the role of a primary atmosphere in its history. Atmosphere samples would also inform our understanding of the near-surface chemistry of the planet, and ultimately the prospects for life. High-precision isotopic analyses of constituent gases are needed to address these questions, requiring that the analyses are made on returned samples rather than in situ.
Multi-source connectivity as the driver of solar wind variability in the heli...Sérgio Sacani
The ambient solar wind that flls the heliosphere originates from multiple
sources in the solar corona and is highly structured. It is often described
as high-speed, relatively homogeneous, plasma streams from coronal
holes and slow-speed, highly variable, streams whose source regions are
under debate. A key goal of ESA/NASA’s Solar Orbiter mission is to identify
solar wind sources and understand what drives the complexity seen in the
heliosphere. By combining magnetic feld modelling and spectroscopic
techniques with high-resolution observations and measurements, we show
that the solar wind variability detected in situ by Solar Orbiter in March
2022 is driven by spatio-temporal changes in the magnetic connectivity to
multiple sources in the solar atmosphere. The magnetic feld footpoints
connected to the spacecraft moved from the boundaries of a coronal hole
to one active region (12961) and then across to another region (12957). This
is refected in the in situ measurements, which show the transition from fast
to highly Alfvénic then to slow solar wind that is disrupted by the arrival of
a coronal mass ejection. Our results describe solar wind variability at 0.5 au
but are applicable to near-Earth observatories.

A brief information about the SCOP protein database used in bioinformatics.
The Structural Classification of Proteins (SCOP) database is a comprehensive and authoritative resource for the structural and evolutionary relationships of proteins. It provides a detailed and curated classification of protein structures, grouping them into families, superfamilies, and folds based on their structural and sequence similarities.
Deep Behavioral Phenotyping in Systems Neuroscience for Functional Atlasing a...Ana Luísa Pinho
Functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (fMRI) provides means to characterize brain activations in response to behavior. However, cognitive neuroscience has been limited to group-level effects referring to the performance of specific tasks. To obtain the functional profile of elementary cognitive mechanisms, the combination of brain responses to many tasks is required. Yet, to date, both structural atlases and parcellation-based activations do not fully account for cognitive function and still present several limitations. Further, they do not adapt overall to individual characteristics. In this talk, I will give an account of deep-behavioral phenotyping strategies, namely data-driven methods in large task-fMRI datasets, to optimize functional brain-data collection and improve inference of effects-of-interest related to mental processes. Key to this approach is the employment of fast multi-functional paradigms rich on features that can be well parametrized and, consequently, facilitate the creation of psycho-physiological constructs to be modelled with imaging data. Particular emphasis will be given to music stimuli when studying high-order cognitive mechanisms, due to their ecological nature and quality to enable complex behavior compounded by discrete entities. I will also discuss how deep-behavioral phenotyping and individualized models applied to neuroimaging data can better account for the subject-specific organization of domain-general cognitive systems in the human brain. Finally, the accumulation of functional brain signatures brings the possibility to clarify relationships among tasks and create a univocal link between brain systems and mental functions through: (1) the development of ontologies proposing an organization of cognitive processes; and (2) brain-network taxonomies describing functional specialization. To this end, tools to improve commensurability in cognitive science are necessary, such as public repositories, ontology-based platforms and automated meta-analysis tools. I will thus discuss some brain-atlasing resources currently under development, and their applicability in cognitive as well as clinical neuroscience.
2. A faint, is a sudden, brief temporary loss of
consciousness that occurs when the brain does
not receive enough blood/deprived of oxygen.
3. Causes
Reaction to pain or fright
Emotional upset
Lack of food
Exhaustion
Long periods of physical inactivity i.e. standing
still especially in a warm atmosphere
Cardiac arrhythmias.
Certain drugs esp the ones that lower blood
pressure
4. Signs and symptoms
Brief loss of consciousness causing a fall
Nausea
Lightheaded
Weak
Shaky
Deep abdominal pains
Pale, cold skin
Pounding pain in the head
Cold, sweating
5. First Aid management for fainting
If the casualty has not fainted but tells you that he
feels faint, quickly have him lie down; elevate his
legs. If he is in a sitting position, have him put his
head in between the legs.
If the casualty has already fainted, keep him in a
supine position and elevate his legs.
if the casualty falls against the furniture ,wall ,or
some other obstacle and doesn’t get into flat
position, he will not regain consciousness because
the blood flow to his brain will not occur.
Do not allow a person who has fainted to sit upright
away; cerebral vascular accident can occur can
result
6. Until proven otherwise, assume that the brain has
been deprived of oxygen .Establish an airway and
administer artificial ventilation if necessary.
Monitor for possible vomiting.
Make sure that he/she has plenty of fresh air (open
window/ fan etc)
Loosen any tight clothing that may resist free
breathing.
Make a rapid assessment for any life –threatening
condition that may have caused the fainting ;if you
determine that the casualty has a serious medical
condition, initiate appropriate care
Check for any injuries that may have been
sustained during the fall, and give appropriate care.
7. As he/ she recovers reassure after helping to sit
upright, do not allow a casualty who has fainted to
get up immediately and walk around after regaining
consciousness
If the casualty fails to recover organize and refer the
patient to Health facility.
8. Prevention of Fainting
Avoid stress, tiredness and hunger
Do not stand up quickly from a lying or sitting
position
Avoid standing for long periods
Drink more water and try to avoid physical
exertion in case of being in a hot environment for
long periods of time
9. If you feel as if you are going to faint, you can
prevent it by:
Drinking 2 glasses or cups of water, because this
can help you rehydrate. Caution: do not force
someone who feels faint to drink water.
Performing one of the following postures:
lying down
standing with crossed legs, preferably in
combination with tensing your leg muscles, by
tiptoeing or stretching the legs
Squatting
Sitting on a bed side with the head bent between
10.
11. STRAIN
Strains are soft-tissue injuries of the muscle due to
over stretching beyond their normal ranges of motion,
causing the muscles to tear.
Signs and symptoms of sprains
Extreme tenderness to touch
Cavity or indentation at the site of injury
Weakness or loss of function
Pronounced swelling
12. SPRAINS
A sprain is an injury to a joint in which ligaments are stretched and partially
or completely torn,usually from the sudden twisting of the joint beyond its
normal range of motion.
It can be very difficult to tell the difference between a sprain and a fracture
because the signs and symptoms are similar
Signs and symptoms of sprains
Pronounced swelling
Tenderness
Deformity
Painful movement of the joint muscle, swelling
Warmth and redness of the injured areas
Difficulty moving the injured part
No pulse or weak pulse below injury site
Discoloration of the skin
13. Joints that are commonly sprained are the thumb,
and fingers, knee and ankle. Severe sprain may
rapture the ligament or dislocate or the bones that
form the joint.
14. First aid management for sprain and strain
Note: In the field, it is difficult to distinguish
between sprain and strains and so, first aid
management for each is similar as described
below:
Apply the RICE Procedures
15. Rest. Have the casualty stay off the injured part
completely and not use the joint at all. Splint the
sprained joint to give it complete rest. Any movement
increases blood circulation to the joint, which increases
swelling.
Apply Ice. Cold relieves pain and prevents or reduces
swelling and inflammation. Immediately put cold
packs, crushed ice, or cold towels on the injured area,
or immerse it in ice water for ten to twenty minutes at
a time everyone to two hours. Don't stop applying cold
too soon; it should be continued for the first twenty-
four to forty-eight hours. (Don't apply cold any longer
than twenty minutes at a time, or you could cause
frostbite; always remove the cold pack when the skin
becomes numb.) Although they have been shown not
to work as effectively, you could use a commercially
manufactured chemical cold like deep cold spray
16. Compression. To limit internal bleeding and compress fluid
from the injury site., wrap a compression bandage (usually an
elastic bandage) in an overlapping spiral that supports the
entire injured area. The casualty should wear the bandage
continuously for 18-24 hours, except when applying a cold
pack.
The bandage should exert even pressure without being too
tight. Constantly reassess distal perfusion and motor/sensory
during applicatoin to identify whether the bandage has
accidentltally put on too tight and now is causing
vascular/nerve tissue compromise. Leave the fingers and toes
exposed so that you can make sure the bandage is not too
tight. Pale skin, pain, tingling, and numbness are signs that the
bandage is too tight.
Elevate. Limits circulation, reduces swelling and encourages
lymphatic drainage. Elevate the injured area to heart level or
just above if you do not suspect fracture.
17. Dislocation
A dislocation is the separation of a bone end from
a joint, leaving the bone end out of alignment with
the joint.
This condition which comes as a result of sudden
twisting of joints leading them to be displaced
leaving their normal positions. This can be
caused by stepping in ditches, bad tackling in
sports like football.
18. Signs and symptoms
Signs and symptoms of a dislocation are similar to
those of a fracture. Key symptoms are:
Pain around affected areas
Difficulty in movement
Deformity
Swelling
Restlessness
Numbness or paralysis below the dislocation, if
the displaced bone end is pressing on a nerve.
19. First aid management for dislocation
Immediately assess blood flow by assessing capillary
refill and checking distal pulses, and assess nerve
function by checking for loss of sensation, numbness,
or paralysis.
Place the casualty in comfortable position
Apply cold compress on the affected part
Reassure the casualty
Because dislocation is usually accompanied by
fractures, immobilize all dislocations in the position
found. Splint above and below the dislocated joint
with a appropriate splint that will keep the joint
immobile.
Refer for secondary treatment
Watch out for swelling
20. Note: DO NOT attempt to straighten the dislocation
or replace the bone ends back in its original
position.
21. MUSCLE CRAMPS
It's not known exactly what causes cramps
although some theories exist-in any instance.
Cramps are uncontrolled spasms of a muscle that
cause severe pain and loss (or restriction) of
movement
Can follow physical activity, are a sign of
dehydration, may occur when a casualty loses
too many electrolytes (usually through heavy
perspiration), and sometimes occur during sleep.
22. First aid management
Have the casualty gently stretch the cramping
muscle; gradual lengthening of the muscle can
relieve the intensity of the cramp by lengthening
the muscle fibers. Because cramps are extremely
painful, the casualty may need you to gently pull
the affected area to stretch out the muscle. If the
muscle is in the calf of the leg, standing on the
affected leg will lengthen the muscle and help
relieve the cramp.
Apply steady, firm pressure to the cramping
muscle with the heel of your hand.
Apply an ice pack over the cramped muscle
23. If the cramp occurs during or after heavy physical
activity, have the casualty drink a commercial
electrolyte drink or lightly salted water (1/4
teaspoon of salt dissolved in a tea cup of water).
