Intentional re-challenge and the clinical data management of Drug Related pro...ClinosolIndia
Intentional re-challenge" refers to a deliberate decision to re-administer a drug to a patient who has previously experienced an adverse drug reaction (ADR) or drug-related problem. This is done under controlled circumstances to confirm whether the suspected adverse event was indeed caused by the drug and to assess the reproducibility of the reaction.
In clinical data management, intentional re-challenge involves collecting and analyzing data related to the re-administration of the drug to the patient. This process is often carried out in a clinical trial or controlled clinical setting, and the resulting data play a crucial role in understanding the causality of the adverse event and making informed decisions about the drug's use.

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.
June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

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.

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.

13. Pharmaceutical Care
Process
• Initiating a relationship with the patient
– patient bringing a new prescription to the pharmacy
or asking about a nonprescription drug
• Pharmacist gathers all the pertinent information
to evaluate the patient’s health and drug therapy
appropriately
– subjective information (patient complaints and
symptoms)
– objective information (medication profile, vital signs,
or physical assessment data)
13Anas Bahnassi PhD CDM CDE
14. Pharmaceutical Care
Process
• Pharmacist assess the information and looks for
DRPs.
• The DTPs are prioritized along with corresponding
goals and goal criteria, and documented in
pharmaceutical care plan (PCP)
• Integral to the PCP, pharmacist develop the
solutions to DRPs (= interventions).
• Develop the monitoring plan, which outlines
factors that will determine attainment of the
desired patient outcomes (BP measurement, lab
data, talking with patient).
14Anas Bahnassi PhD CDM CDE
15. Pharmaceutical Care
Process
• Implement follow-up, which includes
implementing the monitoring plan (ex. Contact
the patient to evaluate drug therapy compliance
or drug side effects). Other follow up may
include measuring vital signs or checking other
physical or lab data.
NOTE:
• Ideally, the patient should be involved throughout the entire
pharmaceutical care process.
• After that plan has been implemented, the PCP recycles once again. The
pharmacist gather more data, assess the Px progress, and adjust the
plan.
15Anas Bahnassi PhD CDM CDE
17. Patient Assessment
Patient assessment is the process
through which the pharmacist evaluate
the patient information (both objective
and subjective) that was gathered from
the patient and other sources (e.g. drug
therapy profile, medical record, etc.)
17Anas Bahnassi PhD CDM CDE
18. Patient Assessment
Means:
Making
decisions
regarding:
1. The health status of the
patient.
2. Drug therapy needs and
problems.
3. Interventions that will
resolve identified drug
problems and future
problems
4. Follow-up to ensure that
patient outcomes are
being met.
18Anas Bahnassi PhD CDM CDE
19. Purpose of
Patient Assessment:
A pharmacist cannot
adequately provide
pharmaceutical care
without assessing
patients.
• To identify,
• To resolve, and
• To prevent drug
related problems.
19Anas Bahnassi PhD CDM CDE
20. Patient Assessment
Should be done by:
• Asking a series of questions:
• These questions will guide the pharmacist
through the assessment process.
• Assess the patient’s physical
conditions:
• e g. skin abnormalities, obtainment of
vital signs, peak flow readings, blood
glucose levels, cholesterol values.
20Anas Bahnassi PhD CDM CDE
21. Documentation:
• Provides a permanent record of patient
information.
• Provides a permanent record and evidence of
pharmaceutical care activities by the pharmacist.
• Communicates essential
information to other pharmacists
and health care professionals.
• Serves as a legal record of patient
care that was provided.
• Provides back-up for billing
purposes.
21Anas Bahnassi PhD CDM CDE
22. Characteristics of
Useful Patient Records:
• Information that is neat, organized, and able to be found
quickly.
• Information that is easily understandable, so that any health
care professional can determine what the problems were,
what actions were taken, and what follow-up is needed.
• Accurate subjective and objective information.
• An assessment of the patient
information, focusing on DRPs.
• A plan to resolve any problems that
were identified.
• A plan for future follow-up to ensure that any problems are
resolved and that patient outcomes are met.
