HIV attacks and destroys CD4 cells, weakening the immune system and making one susceptible to infections and illnesses over time. If left untreated, HIV develops into AIDS, which is the final stage where the CD4 count is very low and one's ability to fight infection is lost. While there is no cure for HIV/AIDS, antiretroviral therapy can control the virus and help those infected live longer if medications are taken as prescribed.

Hiv aids part 1.ppts
This document discusses microorganisms and HIV/AIDS. It defines microorganisms as tiny organisms that usually require a microscope to see. It explains that HIV is a retrovirus that invades T cells and replicates, causing AIDS once the immune system is severely weakened. The four stages of HIV are also outlined, from initial infection to AIDS diagnosis when opportunistic infections take hold due to very low CD4 counts.
Hiv/aids presentation
HIV stands for human immunodeficiency virus and causes AIDS (acquired immunodeficiency syndrome). HIV weakens a person's immune system by destroying important cells that fight disease. AIDS is the final stage of HIV infection where the immune system is severely damaged. HIV is transmitted through direct contact with infected blood, semen, vaginal fluids, breast milk and rectal fluids. Common ways of transmission include unprotected sex and needle sharing. While there is no cure for HIV/AIDS, the risk of transmission can be reduced through safe sex practices and access to treatment.
Hiv power point
HIV is a deadly disease that has killed over 15 million people in Africa. It is found in certain body fluids like blood, semen, and breast milk. If any of these fluids enter the body through sex or other means, it can cause HIV infection. Condoms and abstaining from risky activities can help prevent the transmission of HIV. Globally, sub-Saharan Africa has been most heavily affected by HIV/AIDS.
Hiv
This document provides information about HIV/AIDS. It begins by explaining what HIV is, noting that it attacks the immune system and can be present for many years without symptoms. Over time, HIV can severely damage the immune system, leading to AIDS. AIDS is defined as acquired immune deficiency syndrome. The document then lists various names HIV was formerly called and explains what AIDS stands for. It identifies common modes of HIV transmission like unprotected sex and needle sharing. The stages of HIV infection are outlined, from primary infection to symptomatic stage to AIDS. Opportunistic infections associated with AIDS are listed. Primary prevention methods like abstinence, monogamy, and protected sex are discussed.
infectious disease
HIV attacks and damages CD4 cells (a type of T cell) in the immune system, weakening the body's ability to fight infections and disease. There are three stages of HIV infection: acute stage shortly after transmission, clinical latency or chronic stage, and AIDS. AIDS develops when the CD4 count drops below 200 cells per cubic millimeter. HIV is transmitted through bodily fluids like blood, semen, vaginal fluids, rectal fluids, breast milk, and can be transmitted through vaginal or anal sex, sharing needles, or from mother to child during pregnancy, labor, delivery or breastfeeding.
HIV & AIDS - Basic Facts
There is no vaccine or cure for HIV, but treatment can allow those infected to live long and healthy lives. HIV is transmitted through certain bodily fluids, primarily blood, semen, rectal fluids, vaginal fluids and breast milk. Common ways of transmission include unprotected sex and sharing drug equipment. While oral sex poses a lower risk, safer sex practices like condoms are recommended. Anyone can acquire HIV regardless of age, sex, race or sexual orientation. Regular testing is important since there may be no symptoms initially despite one's ability to transmit the virus. With medical care, including treatment during pregnancy, the risk of transmitting HIV from mother to child can be reduced to less than 2%.
AIDS
The document provides information about AIDS/HIV, including what it is, statistics on its prevalence worldwide and in the US, how it attacks and destroys cells in the immune system, how it is transmitted, early and late stage symptoms, treatment options, discrimination faced by those infected, prevention methods, and common myths about the virus. It notes that over 33 million people worldwide are infected with AIDS, mostly in developing countries, with over 1 million cases in the US alone resulting in over 550,000 deaths. HIV attacks and destroys CD4+ T cells, leaving the infected vulnerable to other diseases and infections.
HIV/AIDS powerpoint
This document provides information about HIV/AIDS, including how it is transmitted and prevented. It defines HIV as the virus that compromises the immune system, and AIDS as the final stage when the immune system is severely damaged. Some key statistics are presented, such as over 1.7 million people in the US being infected since 1981, with 1 in 5 unaware. Common symptoms during HIV emergence from latency are also listed. The document stresses that while there is no cure for HIV, antiretroviral drugs can suppress it and transmission is preventable through condom use and clean needles.
HIV-AIDS. Facts
HIV stands for Human Immunodeficiency Virus and is the virus that causes AIDS (Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome). HIV weakens a person's immune system by destroying important cells that fight disease and infection. AIDS is the final stage of HIV infection when the immune system is severely damaged and opportunistic infections or cancers begin. While HIV was discovered in the US in 1981, it is believed to have originated from central Africa in the early 20th century. There is no cure for HIV/AIDS, but treatment with antiretroviral drugs can control the virus and prevent transmission.
Hiv
HIV and AIDS are related but different. HIV is the virus that weakens the immune system, and AIDS is the late stage of HIV infection defined by specific opportunistic infections. There are four stages of HIV infection from initial infection to AIDS. HIV is transmitted through bodily fluids and can be prevented through abstinence, monogamy, protected sex, and sterile needles. While there is no cure for HIV/AIDS, antiretroviral drugs can control the virus and prevent transmission.
Protcet Your Self from HIV
If anybody suspects for HIV infection, he or she should contact a health expert working on HIV and looking ahead with confidential counseling and testing. It is important for the pregnant ladies to go for a HIV test before delivery.

Prevention Of HIV/AIDS
HIV/AIDS refers to acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) caused by the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). HIV attacks the immune system, leaving individuals susceptible to infections over time. The document discusses the definition of HIV/AIDS, how HIV is transmitted, signs and symptoms of infection, worldwide impact of AIDS, and strategies for prevention through risk avoidance and reduction.
HIV and AIDS
The document discusses HIV and AIDS. It explains that HIV originated from chimpanzees in West Africa and was transmitted to humans through contact with their blood. HIV attacks and destroys CD4 cells, weakening the immune system and leading to AIDS. AIDS is diagnosed when someone with HIV gets an opportunistic infection due to a severely weakened immune system with a CD4 count below 200. Common symptoms of HIV include fatigue, fever, and swollen lymph nodes.
Aids
Human immunodeficiency virus infection and acquired immune deficiency syndrome (HIV/AIDS) is a spectrum of conditions caused by infection with the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). Following initial infection a person may not notice any symptoms, or may experience a brief period of influenza-like illness.
projectblack-210316180313(1).pdf
This document provides information about HIV/AIDS, including its causes, symptoms, diagnosis, and treatment. It discusses how HIV weakens the immune system and can lead to AIDS if untreated. The document outlines how HIV is transmitted, the stages of HIV infection from early to late stage AIDS, and how HIV is diagnosed through blood tests. It discusses the current treatments for HIV like antiretroviral drugs and pre-exposure prophylaxis, as well as recent developments in treatments and efforts towards developing a vaccine.
HIV and AIDS
Their are many people affected in HIV and Aids. This topic will help you to know if you are one of the victim of it.
Causes of AIDA
HIV is a virus that causes AIDS by destroying CD4+ T cells in the immune system. There is currently no cure for HIV/AIDS. HIV is transmitted through bodily fluids and can be prevented by abstinence, monogamy, condom use, sterile needle use, and antiretroviral drugs post-exposure. A person with HIV may not have symptoms for years but can still transmit the virus to others.

Aids
HIV stands for Human Immunodeficiency Virus. It weakens a person's immune system by destroying white blood cells, making the body vulnerable to other infections and diseases. HIV is transmitted through unprotected sex, sharing needles, unsafe blood transfusions, and from mother to child during pregnancy, childbirth or breastfeeding. While some people experience flu-like symptoms shortly after infection, many live asymptomatic for years before developing AIDS. There is no vaccine or cure for HIV/AIDS, so prevention through safe sex practices and access to treatment are important.
HIV Prevention.pptx
HIV infects and destroys cells of the immune system, specifically CD4+ T cells (also called T helper cells). This weakens the immune system and makes it harder for the body to fight off infections and diseases. HIV gets inside CD4+ T cells and uses the cell's machinery to make copies of itself. It then destroys the cell. The copies of HIV then infect other CD4+ T cells, repeating the cycle. Over time, HIV can completely destroy the immune system. HIV is transmitted via bodily fluids like blood, semen, vaginal fluids, and breast milk. Common modes of transmission include unprotected sex, sharing needles, and from mother to child during birth or breastfeeding. There is no cure for
Aids 1
Acquired immune deficiency syndrome (AIDS) is a disease caused by the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) which weakens a person's immune system. HIV infects and damages CD4 cells (T cells), leaving an infected person vulnerable to opportunistic infections and malignancies. Over time, HIV can destroy so many of these cells that it prevents the immune system from protecting the body. No cure currently exists for AIDS.
W hat you need to know about aids
HIV and AIDS are caused by different viruses. HIV weakens the immune system, and AIDS is the final stage where the immune system is too weak to fight off infections. There is currently no cure for HIV/AIDS. HIV can be transmitted through bodily fluids like blood, semen, vaginal fluids and breast milk. It can also be transmitted from mother to child during pregnancy, birth, or breastfeeding. People can lower their risk by abstaining from sex, having only one monogamous partner, using condoms correctly every time, and not sharing needles.
AIDS
The document provides information about HIV/AIDS, including:
- HIV is a virus that causes AIDS by infecting helper T cells. There is no cure for HIV/AIDS.
- AIDS is the late stage of HIV infection where the immune system is severely damaged and people are vulnerable to opportunistic infections.
- HIV is transmitted through bodily fluids and can be contracted through unprotected sex, needle sharing, or from mother to child during birth or breastfeeding.
- The stages of HIV infection progress from initial infection, to asymptomatic infection where the virus is dormant, to symptomatic infection where AIDS develops without treatment.
HIV - AIDS
Acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) is a chronic, potentially life-threatening condition caused by the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). HIV damages the immune system, making the body vulnerable to infection. While there is no cure for HIV/AIDS, antiretroviral treatment can control the virus and prevent transmission. The document then provides details on the stages and symptoms of HIV/AIDS, how it is transmitted, prevention methods like PrEP and PEP, and the structure and life cycle of the HIV virus.
Aids
This document discusses HIV and AIDS. It defines HIV as the virus that causes AIDS and explains the four stages of HIV infection. It describes how HIV damages the immune system and leads to AIDS. It also outlines the various testing and treatment options for HIV/AIDS and discusses methods of prevention such as abstinence, monogamy, condom use, and clean needle use.
Hiv aids lecture
HIV attacks and destroys CD4 cells, weakening the immune system and leading to AIDS. It is transmitted through bodily fluids like blood, breastmilk, semen and vaginal secretions. The infection progresses from HIV infection to AIDS in stages - first, the window period when antibodies are not detectable. It is then followed by asymptomatic phase that can last 10-15 years before HIV-related illnesses and infections emerge. Untreated, it culminates in AIDS when the immune system is severely compromised. Risk groups include those with multiple sexual partners and intravenous drug users. Testing involves pre- and post-test counseling and uses ELISA or Western Blot confirmatory tests.

HIV (human immunodeficiency virus) is a virus that attacks cells that help the body fight infection, making a person more vulnerable to other infections and diseases. It is spread by contact with certain bodily fluids of a person with HIV, most commonly during unprotected sex (sex without a condom or HIV medicine to prevent or treat HIV), or through sharing injection drug equipment.
Seasonal influenza (the flu) is an acute respiratory infection caused by influenza viruses. It is common in all parts of the world. Most people recover without treatment.
Influenza spreads easily between people when they cough or sneeze. Vaccination is the best way to prevent the disease.
Symptoms of influenza include acute onset of fever, cough, sore throat, body aches and fatigue.
Treatment should aim to relieve symptoms. People with the flu should rest and drink plenty of liquids. Most people will recover on their own within a week. Medical care may be needed in severe cases and for people with risk factors.
There are 4 types of influenza viruses, types A, B, C and D. Influenza A and B viruses circulate and cause seasonal epidemics of disease.
Influenza A viruses are further classified into subtypes according to the combinations of the proteins on the surface of the virus. Currently circulating in humans are subtype A(H1N1) and A(H3N2) influenza viruses. The A(H1N1) is also written as A(H1N1)pdm09 as it caused the pandemic in 2009 and replaced the previous A(H1N1) virus which had circulated prior to 2009. Only influenza type A viruses are known to have caused pandemics.
Influenza B viruses are not classified into subtypes but can be broken down into lineages. Influenza type B viruses belong to either B/Yamagata or B/Victoria lineage.
Influenza C virus is detected less frequently and usually causes mild infections, thus does not present public health importance.
Influenza D viruses primarily affect cattle and are not known to infect or cause illness in people.Presentation1.pptx
HIV/AIDS is caused by the HIV virus which attacks the immune system. It is transmitted through bodily fluids and can be diagnosed through blood tests. Early symptoms include fever, weight loss, and fatigue. While there is no cure for AIDS, treatment with antiretroviral drugs can control the virus and prevent symptoms. India has a growing problem with HIV/AIDS, with over 1.7 lakh people estimated to be living with HIV in Uttar Pradesh alone.
Bloodborne Pathogens
This is an overview of blood borne pathogens, exposure control plans, and disposal procedures for contaminated items.
Aids 2
HIV/AIDS is a global issue that affects both more and less economically developed countries. It is transmitted through bodily fluids and weakens the immune system, leaving those infected vulnerable to other diseases. While treatments can prolong life for some, there is no vaccine or cure. Prevention through awareness, testing, and safe practices is crucial to controlling the spread and impact of the virus.

Human reproduction powerpoint
The male reproductive system contains both external and internal organs. The external organs include the penis and scrotum. The internal organs include the testicles, epididymis, vas deferens, seminal vesicles, prostate gland, and Cowper's gland. Sperm and hormones are produced and stored in the testicles and related structures. The female reproductive system also contains external and internal organs. The external organs include the labia and vulva. The internal organs include the vagina, cervix, uterus, fallopian tubes, and ovaries. The uterus is where a fetus develops during pregnancy. During ovulation, an egg is released from the ovaries and travels through the fallopian tubes where it may be fertilized by sperm
Non communicable diseases cancer
The document discusses cancer and its various types. It begins by defining cancer as uncontrollable growth of abnormal cells that form tumors. The two main types of tumors are benign (non-cancerous) and malignant (cancerous), with malignant tumors able to spread through metastasis. The most common cancers are discussed as breast cancer, lung cancer, skin cancer, leukemia, and pancreatic cancer. Risk factors, prevention methods, and treatment options such as surgery, chemotherapy, and radiation therapy are also outlined.
3 non communicable diseases
Non-communicable diseases are conditions that cannot be spread from person to person. Common non-communicable diseases include cardiovascular disease, cancer, diabetes, and arthritis. Cardiovascular disease affects the heart and blood vessels and is a leading cause of death. It includes conditions like hypertension (high blood pressure), atherosclerosis (plaque in the arteries), and arteriosclerosis (hardening of the arteries). Risk factors for cardiovascular disease include diet, lack of exercise, stress, tobacco/drug use, family history, and environment. Diagnosis methods include EKGs, MRIs, and angiography. Treatments may include procedures like angioplasty, stents, pacemakers, or bypass surgery. Managing risk factors and
2 the toy story immune system
This story uses characters from the Toy Story movies to describe the immune system. It describes the skin as the walls of Andy's room that provide a first line of defense. Chemical barriers are represented as squirt guns that deter pathogens. Macrophages are portrayed as patrol men that fight off invaders. Helper T cells sound the alarm by getting Rex to roar, and enlist the help of B cells that use laser guns as antibodies. Killer T cells are described as crazy helpers that are called in during really ugly battles. Suppressor T cells end the attack by having Woody ride around on his steed. Memory cells are depicted as Hamm who stores away information to remember how to fight future attacks.
2 fighting communicable diseases
The document summarizes the immune system and its three lines of defense. The first line of defense consists of physical and chemical barriers like the skin and mucous membranes. The second line is the inflammatory response, which causes swelling and pain around injuries. The third line activates specific defenses like B cells, T cells, antibodies, and macrophages that fight pathogens. Memory cells help the immune system quickly recognize pathogens it has previously encountered.
1 common communicable diseases2
This document provides information about common communicable diseases, including examples of bacteria and viruses that cause disease. It discusses how diseases are transmitted from person to person and lists some common diseases such as the common cold, influenza, hepatitis, and mononucleosis.

The document emphasizes the importance of rest, nutrition, hygiene and vaccines in preventing and treating communicable diseases.
4 the truth about drugs
This document discusses the dangers of drug use and provides information about various drugs. It states that drugs alter the mind and people use them to change something about their lives, though drugs eventually become the problem. It then provides details on the short-term and long-term effects of various drugs like marijuana, cocaine, crack, ecstasy, and methamphetamine. It notes that drugs can cause health issues, addiction, risky behaviors, and in some cases death. The document aims to educate people on the truths and dangers of drug use.
3 the truth about tobacco
This document discusses the harms of tobacco use and provides statistics about tobacco. It notes that tobacco contains the addictive substance nicotine and comes in forms that are smoked or smokeless. Key details include:
- Tobacco use causes both short term effects like increased heart rate and long term diseases like lung cancer, heart disease, and emphysema.
- Smoking causes over 400,000 deaths per year in the United States.
- Half of all teenagers that begin smoking will die from tobacco-related causes.
- Advertisements target kids to replace the 400,000 smokers that die each year.
2 alcohol
Alcohol is made through fermentation and contains ethanol, which is addictive and can impact brain development. It acts as a depressant on the central nervous system, slowing reaction time and impairing judgment. Underage drinking is common among teens and poses many health risks like death, addiction, poor brain development, and poor academic performance. Drinking can also lead to risky behaviors like unprotected sex, violence, and legal consequences. Fetal alcohol syndrome occurs when a mother drinks during pregnancy and can cause developmental and physical problems for the baby. The amount of alcohol in one's blood is called BAC, and driving over 0.08% BAC is illegal. Peer pressure, family habits, and perceived benefits of drinking are some
1 medicines
Medicines can be classified into four main categories: those that prevent disease like vaccines; those that fight pathogens like antibiotics and antivirals; those that relieve pain and symptoms like analgesics and narcotics; and those that manage chronic conditions and regulate body systems like insulin, antidepressants, and cancer treatments. Medicines work in the body in different ways such as killing pathogens, preventing their reproduction, reducing inflammation and pain. People must be careful when taking medicines due to risks of side effects, addiction, resistance, and interactions.

PGx Analysis in VarSeq: A User’s Perspective
Since our release of the PGx capabilities in VarSeq, we’ve had a few months to gather some insights from various use cases. Some users approach PGx workflows by means of array genotyping or what seems to be a growing trend of adding the star allele calling to the existing NGS pipeline for whole genome data. Luckily, both approaches are supported with the VarSeq software platform. The genotyping method being used will also dictate what the scope of the tertiary analysis will be. For example, are your PGx reports a standalone pipeline or would your lab’s goal be to handle a dual-purpose workflow and report on PGx + Diagnostic findings.
The purpose of this webcast is to:
Discuss and demonstrate the approaches with array and NGS genotyping methods for star allele calling to prep for downstream analysis.
Following genotyping, explore alternative tertiary workflow concepts in VarSeq to handle PGx reporting.
Moreover, we will include insights users will need to consider when validating their PGx workflow for all possible star alleles and options you have for automating your PGx analysis for large number of samples. Please join us for a session dedicated to the application of star allele genotyping and subsequent PGx workflows in our VarSeq software.

GASTROINTESTINAL INFECTIONS AND GASTRITIS
Osvaldo Bernardo Muchanga
Gastrointestinal Infections
GASTROINTESTINAL INFECTIONS result from the ingestion of pathogens that cause infections at the level of this tract, generally being transmitted by food, water and hands contaminated by microorganisms such as E. coli, Salmonella, Shigella, Vibrio cholerae, Campylobacter, Staphylococcus, Rotavirus among others that are generally contained in feces, thus configuring a FECAL-ORAL type of transmission.
Among the factors that lead to the occurrence of gastrointestinal infections are the hygienic and sanitary deficiencies that characterize our markets and other places where raw or cooked food is sold, poor environmental sanitation in communities, deficiencies in water treatment (or in the process of its plumbing), risky hygienic-sanitary habits (not washing hands after major and/or minor needs), among others.
These are generally consequences (signs and symptoms) resulting from gastrointestinal infections: diarrhea, vomiting, fever and malaise, among others.
The treatment consists of replacing lost liquids and electrolytes (drinking drinking water and other recommended liquids, including consumption of juicy fruits such as papayas, apples, pears, among others that contain water in their composition).
To prevent this, it is necessary to promote health education, improve the hygienic-sanitary conditions of markets and communities in general as a way of promoting, preserving and prolonging PUBLIC HEALTH.
Gastritis and Gastric Health
Gastric Health is one of the most relevant concerns in human health, with gastrointestinal infections being among the main illnesses that affect humans.
Among gastric problems, we have GASTRITIS AND GASTRIC ULCERS as the main public health problems. Gastritis and gastric ulcers normally result from inflammation and corrosion of the walls of the stomach (gastric mucosa) and are generally associated (caused) by the bacterium Helicobacter pylor, which, according to the literature, this bacterium settles on these walls (of the stomach) and starts to release urease that ends up altering the normal pH of the stomach (acid), which leads to inflammation and corrosion of the mucous membranes and consequent gastritis or ulcers, respectively.
In addition to bacterial infections, gastritis and gastric ulcers are associated with several factors, with emphasis on prolonged fasting, chemical substances including drugs, alcohol, foods with strong seasonings including chilli, which ends up causing inflammation of the stomach walls and/or corrosion. of the same, resulting in the appearance of wounds and consequent gastritis or ulcers, respectively.
Among patients with gastritis and/or ulcers, one of the dilemmas is associated with the foods to consume in order to minimize the sensation of pain and discomfort. Pune Call Girls 7339748667 AVAILABLE HOT GIRLS AUNTY BOOK NOW
