This document summarizes the history and key milestones in understanding and treating hypertension. It discusses early physicians like William Harvey who discovered blood circulation and Stephen Hales who first measured blood pressure. Important developments include the mercury sphygmomanometer in 1896, Korotkoff sounds in 1905, and the term "essential hypertension" being coined in 1911. It then outlines landmark studies and drugs developed to treat hypertension over the 20th century, including the Framingham Heart Study and classes of drugs like beta blockers, ACE inhibitors, and concludes with a discussion of modern clinical practice guidelines.

CHAPTER 5Section 5.2 Definition and Brief History of Hypertension and Diabetes
5.1 Introduction to Hypertension and Diabetes
“Has Barbara been eating a lot of sweets lately?” the pediatrician asked Barbara’s mother, Margaret, on the phone. “No, she doesn’t have a sweet tooth and we don’t keep a lot of sweets in the house,” Margaret replied. Barbara was 11 and had come
down with a particularly nasty stomach ailment. “Why do you ask?” “Well, most of the tests we
did suggest that Barbara has a viral infection, but Barbara’s urine had a very high concentration of
glucose. Let’s just monitor it for a while and see what happens.”
Barbara used urine glucose test strips for several months. At first, her urine glucose went back to
normal, but a few months later it climbed back up and stayed there. She was diagnosed with type
1 diabetes, also known as diabetes mellitus. At the time Barbara was diagnosed, the family was
undergoing quite a bit of stress, because Barbara’s teenaged step-siblings were moving into the
family home.
5.2 Definition and Brief History of Hypertension
and Diabetes
D iabetes and hypertension have been called “evil twins” and “bad companions,” because they are so often found together in the same person. Both are also “silent” disorders, in that they may cause no early symptoms but create extra work for the heart and blood
vessels. Having hypertension makes it more likely that someone will develop diabetes, and hav-
ing diabetes makes it more likely that the person will develop hypertension. Both hypertension
and diabetes increase the risk for problems in the small blood vessels, known as microvascular
disease, of the eyes, kidneys, and peripheral nerves, as well as problems in the large blood vessels,
or macrovascular disease, of the heart, peripheral vascular system, and brain. The risk for both
microvascular and macrovascular disease is even higher when a person has both hypertension
and diabetes (see Table 5.1).

Atrioventricular blocks are related to delay in conduction of the AV node..
Their recognition is primarily by ECG, anatomical correlation is by EP study.
ST elevation is not always due to STEMI. Other causes to be kept in mind to prevent the undue complications of thrombolysis. wrong patient and wrong management
The electrocardiogram, a basic tool in cardiology has been developed two centuries ago. It was recorded by a giant machine at that time, which is now being recorded on a mobile. Such is the advancement in ECG, which is still the gold standard in diagnosis of VT .

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.
A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

4. The term essential hypertension ('Essentielle Hypertonie')
was coined by Eberhard Frank in 1911 to describe
elevated blood pressure for which no cause could be found.
Thomas Young -
Hypertension as a disease 1808
Malignant hypertension, a term used to describe severe
hypertension which eventually resulted in death, was first
used by The Mayo Clinic in 1928.
5. “Hypertension may be an important compensatory
mechanism which should not be tampered with, even were it
certain that we could control it”.
–Paul Dudley White, Father of Preventive Cardiology.
7. President Franklin D. Roosevelt was given a clean bill
of health by his physician even when his BP was
recorded as ~220/120.
A few years later while at Yalta, Winston Churchill’s
personal physician noted in his diary that President
Roosevelt “appeared to be have had signs of
‘hardening of the arteries disease’ and had a few
months to live.”
President Roosevelt ultimately had a fatal
hemorrhagic stroke 2 months later, and his death
brought hypertension’s potential as a deadly to the
limelight.
Three years after Roosevelt’s death, the pivotal
National Heart Act was signed into law by President
Truman. The Act created the path for the study of
heart diseases and resulted in several studies
including the Framingham Heart Study.
13. Miguel Ondetti and David
Cushman, 1975 developed
Captopril, the first of a new class of
drugs known as angiotensin
converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors.
James Whyte Black, 1962
Developed propranolol, a beta blocker

19. Conclusion:
This study showed the clinical efficacy, safety and acceptability of the
perindopril/indapamide/amlodipine SPC in patients with grade 2/3 hypertension inadequately
controlled with two drug therapy. The clinical effectiveness was observed in more than 96%
patients. The benefit of SPC therapy in hypertension control was reconfirmed in this study.
