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.

Pulmonary Thromboembolism - etilogy, types, medical- Surgical and nursing man...VarunMahajani
Disruption of blood supply to lung alveoli due to blockage of one or more pulmonary blood vessels is called as Pulmonary thromboembolism. In this presentation we will discuss its causes, types and its management in depth.
The prostate is an exocrine gland of the male mammalian reproductive system
It is a walnut-sized gland that forms part of the male reproductive system and is located in front of the rectum and just below the urinary bladder
Function is to store and secrete a clear, slightly alkaline fluid that constitutes 10-30% of the volume of the seminal fluid that along with the spermatozoa, constitutes semen
A healthy human prostate measures (4cm-vertical, by 3cm-horizontal, 2cm ant-post ).
It surrounds the urethra just below the urinary bladder. It has anterior, median, posterior and two lateral lobes
It’s work is regulated by androgens which are responsible for male sex characteristics
Generalised disease of the prostate due to hormonal derangement which leads to non malignant enlargement of the gland (increase in the number of epithelial cells and stromal tissue)to cause compression of the urethra leading to symptoms (LUTS
2. Nutritional Requirement of Bacteria
• Bacteria may require adequate nutrition of optimum pH , temperature
and oxygen for multiplication and growth .Bacteria can be classified
into following types on the basis of nutritional requirement .
• 1- On the basis of energy sources .
• A- Photrophics which get energy from photochemical reactions .
• B- Chemotrophic gets energy from chemical reactions .
• 2- On the basis of their ability to synthesize essential metabolites .
• A- Autotrophic :- These are the organisms in which all essential
metabolites are synthesized from inorganic sources . They use carbon
dioxide as the main source of carbon and simple inorganic salts . e.g. :
nitrates , niters , ammonium sulphate , phosphates .
• B-Heterotrophic :- Here some of the essential metapolites are not
synthesized . Organic compounds e.g. protein , peptones , amino acids ,
vitamins and growth factor are supplied from outside . Most of the
bacteria producing disease in man are heterophic.
3. Nutritional Requirement of Bacteria
• The other nutritional requirement are as under :
• 1-Minerals :- These are sodium , potassium ,magnesium , calcium ,iron
, chlorine, zinc , copper , iodine and traces . These are essential for
physiological activities of bacteria.
• 2-Gas requirements :
• A-Oxygen :- The capacity of bacteria to grow in the presence of
oxygen and to utilize it depends on possession of a cytochrome oxidase
systems .
• 1. Aerobes :- The aerobe organisms grow only in the presence of
oxygen .e.g. Pseudomodaceae , bacillus , nitrobacter sarcina etc
• 2. Facultative anaerobes :- They are the organisms that can live
with or without Oxygen .e.g. vibrio , E.coli , salmonella and
staphylococcus. The micro – Aerophilic organism grow well with
relatively small quantites of oxygen .e.g. Haemophilus .
• 3. Obligate anaerobes :- The strict anaerobes multiply only in the
absence of oxygen .e.g. bacteroides ,clostridium
4. Nutritional Requirement of Bacteria
• .B. Carbon dioxide : The metabolic activator of some organisms like
Neisseria , Brucella abortus are greatly enhanced by the presence of
extra amount of carbon dioxide in atmospheric air .
• 3- Moisture :- Bacteria require water for their growth . Desiccation
may kill most of bacteria like Neisseria gonorrhoeae .
• 4- Necessary nutritional requirement :- Most often the necessary
growth factors are vitamins . The requirement of growth factors differ
widely in various bacteria .
• e.g. : Neisseria gonorrhoeae ............... Glutathione .
• Staphylococcus aureus ................However 0.5% sodium .
5. Growth Curve
When organism are cultured in appropriate fluid media there
would be increase in the size of bacteria without any
multiplication for some time . This is followed by multiplication
and increase in numbers of bacteria to the extent that media look
turbid to the naked eye (log phase ) . After some time growth rate
becomes stationary and later on declines . Counting of bacteria at
different periods after inoculation and then events of sequences
are represented on a graph which is called growth curve .
7. Growth Curve
• A-Lag phase :- During this phase there occurs
• 1- Increase in size of cell .
• 2-Increase in metabolic rate .
• 3-Adaptation to new environment and necessary enzymes and
intermediate metabolites are built up for multiplication
proceed.
• The length of lag phase depends upon :
• a-Type of bacteria .
• b-Better the medium , shorter the lag phase.
• c-The phase of culture from which inoculation in taken
• d-Size of inoculum.
• e-Environmental factors like temperature .
8. Growth Curve
• B-Log phase :- Following lag phase . The cells start dividing and their
number increase by geometric progress on with time . Logarithms of viable
count plotting against time gives straight line , during this periods .
• i. Bacteria have high rate of metabolism .
• ii. Bacteria are more sensitive to antibiotics .Control of log phase is brought
about by :
• a-Nature of bacteria .
• b-Temperature .
• c-Rate of penetration of the medium . It depends on the concentration of
material in the medium.
• C-Stationary phase :-After some time a stage comes when rate of
multiplication and death becomes almost equal. It may be due to :
• a-Depletion of nutrient .
• b-Accumulation of toxic products . Sporulation may occur during this
stage.
• D- Decline phase :-During this phase population decrease due to death of
cells .Factors responsible for the phase are :
• a-Nutritional exhaustion
• b-Toxic accumulation .
• c-Autolytic enzymes . Involution is common in phase of decline.
9. • Survival phase :-When most organisms have died , a few survive for several months or years .
Factors influencing growth:
• 1-Temperature:The temperature range at which an organism grows best is called optimum
temperature . It human , parasitic organisms , optimum temperature ranges between 30c and
37c.
• There are three groups of bacteria as regards the temperature of growth :
• a-Psychrophilic:- These are the organisms growing between 0c to 25c . They are mostly
soil and water bacteria.
• b-Mesophilic:- They grow between 20c and 45c . This group includes bacteria
producing disease .
• c-Thermophilic:- Some organisms grow between 50c and 60c . e.g. bacillus and algae.
• 2-Hydrogen ion concentration :- Most of pathogenic bacteria grow best at pH( 7.2-7.6)
.However lactobacilli grow at acidic ph while Vibrio cholera grows at alkaline pH .
• 3-Moisture:- Water in quite essential for the growth of bacteria . Organism like Neisseria
gonorrhea and Treponema pallidum die almost at once on drying .However mycobacterium
tuberculosis and staphylococcus aureus survive for quite along time even on drying .
10. Growth Curve
• 4-Osmotic pressure :-Bacteria are usually resistant to changes
of osmotic pressure. However 0.5% sodium chloride is added
to almost all culture media to make environment isotonic.
• 5- Light :-Darkness usually favorable for the growth and
viability of all the organisms . Direct light exposure shorten the
survival of bacteria Photochromogenic mycobacteria form
pigment on exposure to light . Organism are sensitive to
ultraviolet and other radiations
• 6- Mechanical and sonic stress :-Bacteria tough cell wall .
Vigorous shaking and exposure to ultra sonic vibration may
cause rupture or disintegration of cell wall .
11. • Bacteria divide by simple binary fission .The cell grows in size , almost
double its size . the process of cell division is initialed .The sequence of
cell division include :-
Reproduction in bacteria
1. Formation of initial of chromosome
replication .
2. Chromosome duplication
3. Separation of chromosomes.
4. Formation of septa and cell
division
