This document discusses inflammation. It defines inflammation as the body's response to injury or infection, involving vascular changes that deliver fluid, proteins, and immune cells to the injured site. The summary describes the classic signs of inflammation as redness, swelling, heat, and pain. It also summarizes the different types of inflammation as acute, chronic, and granulomatous.

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.
Embracing GenAI - A Strategic ImperativePeter 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.
Honest Reviews of Tim Han LMA Course Program.pptxtimhan337
Personal development courses are widely available today, with each one promising life-changing outcomes. Tim Han’s Life Mastery Achievers (LMA) Course has drawn a lot of interest. In addition to offering my frank assessment of Success Insider’s LMA Course, this piece examines the course’s effects via a variety of Tim Han LMA course reviews and Success Insider comments.
Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.
How to Make a Field invisible in Odoo 17Celine George
It is possible to hide or invisible some fields in odoo. Commonly using “invisible” attribute in the field definition to invisible the fields. This slide will show how to make a field invisible in odoo 17.
2. What is Inflammation?
• Response to injury (including infection)
• Reaction of blood vessels leads to:
– Accumulation of fluid and leukocytes in extravascular tissues
• Destroys, dilutes, or walls off the injurious agent
• Initiates the repair process
• Fundamentally a protective response
• May be potentially harmful
– Hypersensitivity reactions to insect bites, drugs, contrast media in radiology
– Chronic diseases: arthritis, atherosclerosis
– Disfiguring scars, visceral adhesions
• Consists of two general components
– Vascular reaction
– Cellular reaction
• Controlled by a variety of chemical mediators
– Derived from plasma proteins
– Derived from cells inside and outside of
blood vessels
3. Historical Highlights
• Celsus, a first century A.D. Roman, listed four
cardinal signs of acute inflammation:
– Rubor (erythema [redness]): vasodilatation,
increased blood flow
– Tumor (swelling): extravascular accumulation of
fluid
– Calor (heat): vasodilatation, increased blood flow
– Dolor (pain)
5. Acute Inflammation
• Three major components:
– Increase in blood flow (redness & warmth)
– Edema results from increased hydrostatic
pressure (vasodilation) and lowered
intravascular osmotic pressure (protein leakage)
– Leukocytes emigrate from microcirculation and
accumulate in the focus of injury
• Stimuli: infections, trauma, physical or
chemical agents, foreign bodies, immune
reactions
6. Edema in inflammation
Edema is a general term for
swelling (usu. due to fluid)
Plasma proteins in blood maintain
a “colloid osmotic pressure” to
help draw fluid that leaks out
into tissue bed via hydrostatic
pressure
Dysregulation of hydrostatic
pressure (e.g. heart failure)
and/or colloid pressure
(decresased protein
synthesis/retention) pushes out
more fluid (transudate) into
tissue bed
Inflammation causes endothelial
cells to separate, thus allowing
fluid + protein (exudate) to
enter tissue bed.
7. Leukocyte Extravasation
• Extravasation: delivery of leukocytes from the vessel lumen to the interstitium
– In the lumen: margination, rolling, and adhesion
– Migration across the endothelium (diapedesis)
– Migration in the interstitial tissue (chemotaxis)
• Leukocytes ingest offending agents (phagocytosis), kill microbes, and degrade necrotic
tissue and foreign antigens
• There is a balance between the helpful and harmful effects of extravasated leukocytes
11. Sequence of Leukocyte Emigration
• Neutrophils predominate during the
first 6 to 24 hours
• Monocytes in 24 to 48 hours
• Induction/activation of different
adhesion molecule pairs and specific
chemotactic factors in different phases of
inflammation
14. Outcomes of Acute Inflammation
• Complete resolution
• Abscess formation
• Fibrosis
– After substantial tissue destruction
– In tissues that do not regenerate
– After abundant fibrin exudation, especially
in serous cavities (pleura, peritoneum)
• Progression to chronic inflammation
15. Types of Inflammation: acute vs. chronic
Types of repair: resolution vs. organization (fibrosis)
16. Morphologic Patterns of Acute Inflammation
• Serous inflammation: Outpouring of thin fluid
(serous effusion, blisters)
• Fibrinous inflammation: Body cavities; leakage of
fibrin; may lead to scar tissue (adhesions)
• Suppurative (purulent) inflammation: Pus or
purulent exudate (neutrophils, debris, edema
fluid); abscess: localized collections of pus
• Ulcers: Local defect of the surface of an organ or
tissue produced by the sloughing (shedding) of
inflammatory necrotic tissue
23. Systemic Manifestations
• Endocrine and metabolic
– Secretion of acute phase proteins by the liver
– Increased production of glucocorticoids
(stress response)
– Decreased secretion of vasopressin leads to
reduced volume of body fluid to be warmed
• Fever
– Improves efficiency of leukocyte killing
– Impairs replication of many offending organisms
24. Systemic Manifestations
• Autonomic
– Redirection of blood flow from skin to deep
vascular beds minimizes heat loss
– Increased pulse and blood pressure
• Behavioral
– Shivering (rigors), chills (search for warmth),
anorexia (loss of appetite), somnolence, and
malaise
25. Systemic Manifestations
• Leukocytosis: increased leukocyte count in the
blood
– Neutrophilia: bacterial infections
– Lymphocytosis: infectious mononucleosis, mumps,
measles
– Eosinophilia: Parasites, asthma, hay fever
• Leukopenia: reduced leukocyte count
– Typhoid fever, some viruses, rickettsiae, protozoa
