White blood cells & Immunity (The Guyton and Hall Physiology)Maryam Fida
Leukocytes or WBCs are the mobile units of the body’s immune defense system.
Immunity is the body’s ability to resist or eliminate potentially harmful foreign materials or abnormal cells.
WBC count: 5000 to 11000/ul of blood
GRANULOCYTES
Polymorphonuclear neutrophils 60-70%
Polymorphonuclear eosinophils 2-3%
Polymorphonuclear basophils 0.4%
NON-GRANULOCYTES
Monocytes 5.3%
Lymphocytes 30%
Granulocytes and monocytes are formed and stored only in bone marrow
Lymphocytes and plasma cells are formed and stored mainly in various lymphoid tissue such as lymph node, spleen, thymus and tonsils as well as in bone marrow.
GRANULOCYTES
4 to 8 hours in blood and 4 to 5 days in tissues
MONOCYTES
Monocytes also have a short transit time:
10 to 20 hours in blood and In tissue they swell to much larger size to become tissue macrophages.
LYMPHOCYTES
weeks to months
neutrophil
. 60-70% of leukocytes
nucleus: 2-5 lobes
Counting the number of lobes and grouping them is called Arneth count.
Shift to left means (increase no of young and predominant WBCs) e.g During acute infection.
Shift to right means, old cells are predominant. e.g During recovery phase
NEUTROPENIA
Decrease in neutrophils count
Typhoid
AIDS and viral hepatitis
Kalazar fever
Bone marrow depression by drugs and radiations
NEUTROPHILIA
Increase in neutrophils count
Appendicitis , Tonsillitis, Pneumonia
Burns, Hemorrhage, MI, Pain

Under many allergic conditions basophils and mast cells bursts and releases
Histamine
Bradykinin
Serotonin
Slow reacting substance of anaphylaxis
Heparin
Lysosomal enzymes
It is the capacity of the human body to resist and destroy the invading organisms or toxins.
Platelets also called thrombocytes are tiny blood cells that help your body form clots to stop bleeding. If one of your blood vessels gets damaged, it sends out signals to the platelets. The platelets then rush to the site of damage. they form a plug (clot) to fix the damage.
Normal Blood count: 1.5‐4lakh/ μL of blood

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!

RESULTS: Overall life span (LS) was 2252.1±1742.5 days and cumulative 5-year survival (5YS) reached 73.2%, 10 years – 64.8%, 20 years – 42.5%. 513 LCP lived more than 5 years (LS=3124.6±1525.6 days), 148 LCP – more than 10 years (LS=5054.4±1504.1 days).199 LCP died because of LC (LS=562.7±374.5 days). 5YS of LCP after bi/lobectomies was significantly superior in comparison with LCP after pneumonectomies (78.1% vs.63.7%, P=0.00001 by log-rank test). AT significantly improved 5YS (66.3% vs. 34.8%) (P=0.00000 by log-rank test) only for LCP with N1-2. Cox modeling displayed that 5YS of LCP significantly depended on: phase transition (PT) early-invasive LC in terms of synergetics, PT N0—N12, cell ratio factors (ratio between cancer cells- CC and blood cells subpopulations), G1-3, histology, glucose, AT, blood cell circuit, prothrombin index, heparin tolerance, recalcification time (P=0.000-0.038). Neural networks, genetic algorithm selection and bootstrap simulation revealed relationships between 5YS and PT early-invasive LC (rank=1), PT N0—N12 (rank=2), thrombocytes/CC (3), erythrocytes/CC (4), eosinophils/CC (5), healthy cells/CC (6), lymphocytes/CC (7), segmented neutrophils/CC (8), stick neutrophils/CC (9), monocytes/CC (10); leucocytes/CC (11). Correct prediction of 5YS was 100% by neural networks computing (area under ROC curve=1.0; error=0.0).
CONCLUSIONS: 5YS of LCP after radical procedures significantly depended on: 1) PT early-invasive cancer; 2) PT N0--N12; 3) cell ratio factors; 4) blood cell circuit; 5) biochemical factors; 6) hemostasis system; 7) AT; 8) LC characteristics; 9) LC cell dynamics; 10) surgery type: lobectomy/pneumonectomy; 11) anthropometric data. Optimal diagnosis and treatment strategies for LC are: 1) screening and early detection of LC; 2) availability of experienced thoracic surgeons because of complexity of radical procedures; 3) aggressive en block surgery and adequate lymph node dissection for completeness; 4) precise prediction; 5) adjuvant chemoimmunoradiotherapy for LCP with unfavorable prognosis.

Acute scrotum is a general term referring to an emergency condition affecting the contents or the wall of the scrotum.
There are a number of conditions that present acutely, predominantly with pain and/or swelling
A careful and detailed history and examination, and in some cases, investigations allow differentiation between these diagnoses. A prompt diagnosis is essential as the patient may require urgent surgical intervention
Testicular torsion refers to twisting of the spermatic cord, causing ischaemia of the testicle.
Testicular torsion results from inadequate fixation of the testis to the tunica vaginalis producing ischemia from reduced arterial inflow and venous outflow obstruction.
The prevalence of testicular torsion in adult patients hospitalized with acute scrotal pain is approximately 25 to 50 percent
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.

Tom Selleck health and fitness regimen has evolved. adapting to his changing roles and age. During his "Magnum, P.I." days. Selleck's workouts were intense and focused on building and maintaining muscle mass. His routine included weightlifting, cardiovascular exercises. and specific training for the stunts he performed on the show.
Selleck adjusted his fitness routine as he aged to suit his body's needs. Today, his workouts focus on maintaining flexibility, strength, and cardiovascular health. He incorporates low-impact exercises such as swimming, walking, and light weightlifting. This balanced approach helps him stay fit without putting undue strain on his joints and muscles.
Importance of Flexibility and Mobility
In recent years, Selleck has emphasized the importance of flexibility and mobility in his fitness regimen. Understanding the natural decline in muscle mass and joint flexibility with age. he includes stretching and yoga in his routine. These practices help prevent injuries, improve posture, and maintain mobilit
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.

List the anticoagulants and describe their
mechanism of action
Describe the screening tests of hemostasis
DR Sai Sailesh Kumar G 2
3. Introduction
More than 50 substances were found in blood that
affect blood coagulation
Promote coagulation – pro coagulants
Inhibit coagulation – anti coagulants
Blood coagulates or not – balance between these
two substances
Normally anticoagulants predominate
So blood does not coagulate while circulating
When blood vessel ruptured, pro coagulants are
activated and over ride anticoagulants
DR Sai Sailesh Kumar G 3
4. General mechanism
Clotting takes place in three essential steps
1. In response to rupture of blood vessel, complex
cascade of chemical reactions occurs in the
blood involving clotting factors. The net result
is formation of prothrombin activator
2. Prothrombin activator catalyzes conversion of
prothrombin to thrombin
3. Thrombin acts as enzyme and converts
fibrinogen to fibrin that form clot
DR Sai Sailesh Kumar G 4
5. Prothrombin to thrombin
Prothrombin activator is formed as a result of
rupture of blood vessel
Prothrombin activator in the presence of sufficient
amounts of calcium, converts prothrombin to
thrombin
Thrombin causes polymerization of fibrinogen
molecules into fibrin fibers within 10-15 seconds
The rate limiting step in the blood coagulation is
formation of prothrombin activator
Platelets also plays important role in conversion of
prothrombin to thrombin
DR Sai Sailesh Kumar G 5
6. Prothrombin and thrombin
Prothrombin is a plasma protein
Molecular weight 68,700
Unstable protein that can split into smaller compounds
One of the compound is thrombin
Thrombin molecular weight – 33,700
Prothrombin is formed continuously in the liver
It is used continuously through out the body for
coagulation
If liver fails to produce prothrombin
Plasma concentration of prothrombin decreases
Defect in the blood coagulation
DR Sai Sailesh Kumar G 6
7. Prothrombin and thrombin
Vitamin K is required by the liver for normal
activation of prothrombin and few other clotting
factors
Lack of vitamin k or presence of liver disease
that prevent normal prothrombin formation can
decrease the prothrombin to low levels
Bleeding tendency increases
DR Sai Sailesh Kumar G 7
9. Fibrinogen and fibrin
Fibrinogen is a high molecular weight protein
MW = 340,000
Fibrinogen is formed in the liver
Because of high molecular weight, a small amount
of fibrinogen leaks into the interstitial fluid
When there is alter in the permeability of capillaries
in pathological conditions
Large amounts of fibrinogen leaks into tissue fluid
and causes it to clot in the same way as blood
DR Sai Sailesh Kumar G 9
10. Fibrinogen to fibrin
Thrombin is a protein enzyme
Thrombin has weak proteolytic capabilities
Thrombin acts on fibrinogen
Removes four low molecular weight peptides
Forms fibrin monomers
Fibrin has capability to polymerize with other
fibrin monomer
Forms long fibrin fibers
Constitute the reticulum of blood clot
DR Sai Sailesh Kumar G 10
11. Fibrinogen to fibrin
Early phase of polymerization
fibrin monomers are held with weak
noncovalant hydrogen bonds
Clot is weak
Can be broken with ease
DR Sai Sailesh Kumar G 11
12. Fibrin stabilizing factor
late phase of polymerization
platelets entrapped in clot releases fibrin
stabilizing factor
Fibrin stabilizing factor is activated by thrombin
Fibrin stabilizing factor cause covalent bonds
between fibrin monomers
Also forms multiple cross linkages between
adjacent fibrin fibers
Strengthens the fibrin meshwork
DR Sai Sailesh Kumar G 12
13. Blood clot
Composed of meshwork of fibrin fibers that
entraps
1. Blood cells
2. Platelets
3. plasma
DR Sai Sailesh Kumar G 13
14. Clot retraction
With in few minutes after a clot is formed
It begins to contract
Express most of the fluid from the clot with in
20-60 minutes
The fluid expressed is called serum ( fibrinogen
and most of other clotting factors removed)
Plasma with out fibrinogen and other clotting
factors is serum
DR Sai Sailesh Kumar G 14
15. Clot retraction
Will serum clots?
Serum can not clot
It lacks clotting factors
DR Sai Sailesh Kumar G 15
16. Clot retraction
Platelets are necessary for clot retraction
Failure of clot retraction – decreased platelet count
Platelets release thrombaxane A2 - clot retraction
Platelets directly cause clot retraction
Platelets activates thrombosthenin, actin, myosin
molecules
These are contractile proteins and cause strong
contraction of platelets so that they attach firm to fibrin
This action compress the fibrin meshwork into smaller
mass
As clot retracts, the edges of the broken blood vessel
pulled together
DR Sai Sailesh Kumar G 16
17. Positive feedback of clot
formation
Clot initiate positive feedback to promote more
clotting
Prothrombin is converted into thrombin
Thrombin has proteolytic activity and acts on
prothrombin itself
Forms and more thrombin
Blood clot continues to grow until blood leakage
ceases
DR Sai Sailesh Kumar G 17
18. Initiation of coagulation
1. Trauma to the vascular wall and adjacent tissues
2. Trauma to the blood
3. Contact of blood with damaged endothelial cells or
collagen
All the above causes formation of prothrombin
activator
1. Extrinsic pathway – begins with trauma to vessel
wall and surrounding tissues
2. Intrinsic pathway – begins in the blood
DR Sai Sailesh Kumar G 18
19. Initiation of coagulation
Both intrinsic and extrinsic pathways, a series of
different proteins called blood clotting factors
plays a major role
Most of the clotting factors are inactive forms of
proteolytic enzymes
When converted to active forms, their enzymatic
actions cause cascade reactions of the clotting
process
DR Sai Sailesh Kumar G 19
20. Clotting factors
They are designated by Roman numerals
To indicate the activated form of the factor, a
small letter “a” is added after the Roman
numeral
such as factor VIIa indicates the activated state
of Factor VII
DR Sai Sailesh Kumar G 20
22. Extrinsic pathway
Begins with traumatized vascular wall
or traumatized extra vascular tissues
that come in contact with blood
This leads to following steps
1. Release of tissue factor
2. Activation of factor X
3. Effect of Xa to form prothrombin activator
DR Sai Sailesh Kumar G 22
23. Release of tissue factor
Traumatized tissue releases several factors
Tissue factor or tissue thromboplastin
This is composed of
1. Phospholipids (from membranes/ platelets)
2. Lipoprotein complex – proteolytic enzyme
DR Sai Sailesh Kumar G 23
24. Activation of factor X
1. Activated factor X combines with phospholipids
+ factor V
2. Formation of prothrombin activator
3. With in a sec in the presence of calcium,
prothrombin split into thrombin
4. Thrombin further activates factor V
DR Sai Sailesh Kumar G 24
26. Intrinsic pathway
Begin with trauma to the blood
Exposure of blood to collagen
1. Blood trauma causes activation of factor XII
and release of platelet phospholipids
2. Activation of factor XI
3. Activation of factor IX
4. Activation of factor X
5. Formation of prothrombin activator
DR Sai Sailesh Kumar G 26
27. Blood trauma
Activates factor XII and platelets
When factor XII comes in contact with collagen
or with a wettable surface such as glass in is
activated (XIIa)
Activated platelets releases platelet
phospholipids
DR Sai Sailesh Kumar G 27
28. Role of factor VIII
Activates factor X
Deficiency of factor VIII or platelets – this step is
deficient
Hemophilia – factor VIII missing
DR Sai Sailesh Kumar G 28
30. Role of calcium ions
Except first two steps in intrinsic pathway,
Calcium ions are required for rest all steps in both
pathways
Lack of calcium – either pathway does not occur
Blood when removed form body, can be stored and
prevent clotting by decreasing the calcium ion
concentration
Common anti coagulant used- ACD, CPD
ACD – acid citrate dextrose
CPD – citrate phosphate dextrose
Citrate ions – deionize calcium
DR Sai Sailesh Kumar G 30
31. Role of calcium ions
Intrinsic and extrinsic pathways occurs
simultaneously
tissue factor initiates extrinsic pathway
Contact of factor XII and platelets with collagen
in the vascular wall initiates intrinsic pathway
Extrinsic pathway can be explosive
Clotting occurs in 15 seconds
Intrinsic pathway is slower
Clotting occurs in 1-6 minutes
DR Sai Sailesh Kumar G 31
32. Excessive bleeding in humans
Vitamin K deficiency
Hemophilia
Thrombocytopenia (platelet deficiency)
DR Sai Sailesh Kumar G 32
33. Vitamin K
Vitamin K is essential in the formation of clotting
factors II,VII,IX,X and protein C
Vitamin K add carboxyl group to glutamic acid
residues
After this step, vitamin k is oxidized and become
inactive
Vitamin k epoxide reductase complex 1 converts
vitamin k again to its active form
DR Sai Sailesh Kumar G 33
34. Vitamin K deficiency
Absence of vitamin K in diet
Absence of intestinal bacterial flora
Obstructive jaundice
Gastro intestinal disease (poor absorption)
1. Vitamin K is injected to the surgical patients with liver
disease or obstructive bile ducts before the surgical
procedure
2. Effective only when half of the liver cells are functional
3. Produce sufficient clotting factors to prevent excess
bleeding
DR Sai Sailesh Kumar G 34
35. Hemophilia
Bleeding disease
Occurs almost exclusively in males
85% cases, deficiency of factor VIII – Hemophilia A or
classical hemophilia
15% cases, deficiency of factor IX
Both these factors are transmitted genetically by the way of
female chromosome
Women will almost never have hemophilia
If one of the x chromosome is deficient, she acts as carrier
(other x chromosome have appropriate genes)
Transmits disease to half of her male offspring
Transmits carrier state to half of her female offspring
DR Sai Sailesh Kumar G 35
36. Hemophilia
Severity depends on genetic deficiency
small injury also cause bleeding
Bleeding lasts for several days
Example: tooth extraction
Factor VIII has large and small components
Smaller component is important for intrinsic
pathway
Smaller component deficiency – classical
hemophilia
Large component deficiency – von willebrand
disease
DR Sai Sailesh Kumar G 36
37. Hemophilia
Therapy – injection of factor VIII
Cost is high as it is collected from human blood
and only extremely small quantities
Hemophilia is sometimes referred to as “the
royal disease,” because it affected the royal
families of England, Germany, Russia and Spain
in the 19th and 20th centuries.
Queen Victoria of England, who ruled from 1837-
1901, is believed to have been the carrier of
hemophilia B, or factor IX deficiency.
DR Sai Sailesh Kumar G 37
38. Anticoagulants for clinical use
Thromboembolism
desired to delay the coagulation
Most effective anticoagulants for this purpose
1. Heparin – inactivates thrombin and factor Xa
2. Coumarins (Warfarin) – inhibits vitamin K
3. Anti platelet agents – Asprin
DR Sai Sailesh Kumar G 38
39. Heparin
Powerful anticoagulant
produced by many different cells of the body
Large quantities are produced by basophils and
mast cells
Concentration in blood is low
Injection of 0.5-1 mg/kg of body weight prolongs
clotting time about 30 or more minutes
Immediate action and Action last for 1.5-4 hours
Destroyed by heparinase
DR Sai Sailesh Kumar G 39
40. Coumarins
Warfarin
inhibits vitamin K epoxide reductase complex 1
Decreased active vitamin K levels
Factor II,VII,IX,X levels fall
Action is not immediate
After 12 hours of injection, coagulant activity
decreases 50%
Normal coagulation results 1-3 days after
discontinuing the dose
DR Sai Sailesh Kumar G 40
41. Prevention of blood coagulation
outside the body
Blood collected in glass tubes clot in 6 minutes
(intrinsic pathway)
Blood collected in silicon containers clot in one
hour or more
Silicon surface prevents activation of platelets
and factor XII
Important factors that initiate intrinsic pathway
DR Sai Sailesh Kumar G 41
42. Prevention of blood coagulation
outside the body
Heparin can be used to prevent coagulation of
blood outside the body as well inside the body
Especially used in surgical procedures
Blood must be passed through heart lung
machine
Artificial kidney machine
And back to the person
DR Sai Sailesh Kumar G 42
43. Prevention of blood coagulation
outside the body
Oxalate anticoagulants
Precipitates calcium
Forms calcium oxalates
Decrease ionic calcium levels
Blocks blood coagulation
Oxalates are toxic
DR Sai Sailesh Kumar G 43
44. Prevention of blood coagulation
outside the body
Citrate anticoagulants
Sodium citrate, ammonium citrate, potassium citrate
Forms unionized calcium (deionizes calcium)
Decrease ionic calcium levels
Blocks blood coagulation
Citrate anticoagulants are non toxic and can be
removed easily from the body by liver
In case of liver disease, long lasting action of
citrates – depress calcium levels - tetany and death
DR Sai Sailesh Kumar G 44
45. Blood coagulation tests
Clotting time
Blood is collected in a chemically clean glass tube
Tip the tube back and forth about every 30 seconds
Until the blood has clotted
Normal value 6-10 minutes
Clotting time varies widely, depending on the
method used
No longer used in many clinics
Measurement of clotting factors themselves are
made using sophisticated chemical procedures
DR Sai Sailesh Kumar G 45
46. Blood coagulation tests
prothrombin time
Indication of concentration in the blood
Blood removed from patient is oxalated
Prothrombin can not convert to thrombin
Then large excess of calcium ions and tissue factors
added the blood
Excess calcium nullifies the effect of oxalates
Tissue factor activates extrinsic pathway
Prothrombin converts to thrombin
The time required for coagulation – prothrombin time
Normal time – 12 seconds
DR Sai Sailesh Kumar G 46
