Multidrug Resistant Malaria- Vani Vannappagari MBBS PhD
Plasmodium falciparum malaria poses a serious global health threat, with approximately 250 million cases and 1 million deaths annually. Drug resistance has developed to former first-line treatments such as chloroquine and sulfadoxine-pyrimethamine. Prompt diagnosis and treatment with artemisinin-based combination therapies can reduce the spread of resistance. Vaccine development remains challenging due to the parasite's ability to evade the immune system.

Drug resistance has developed to former first-line treatments such as chloroquine and sulfadoxine-pyrimethamine. Prompt diagnosis and treatment with artemisinin-based combination therapies can reduce the spread of resistance. A malaria vaccine is still in development but one candidate, RTS,S, has shown promise in clinical trials in reducing malaria cases and severity.
Malaria new ppt
Plasmodium parasites are transmitted through the bites of infected female Anopheles mosquitoes. There are four species that cause malaria in humans. The parasite undergoes development stages in both the human and mosquito hosts. In humans, parasites first develop in the liver before infecting and destroying red blood cells. Symptoms usually appear 10-15 days after the infectious bite and include fever, chills, and flu-like illness. Laboratory diagnosis of malaria is confirmed by microscopic examination of blood films to identify the parasite. While a vaccine is still in development, current prevention strategies include antimalarial drugs for treatment, prophylaxis and rapid diagnostic tests.
AIDS/HIV
The document provides information on Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome (AIDS). It defines AIDS as occurring in patients with HIV and CD4 counts below 200 cells/mm3. It discusses that HIV was identified in 1984 and belongs to the lentivirus family. It then summarizes HIV's structure, transmission routes, pathophysiology of how it destroys CD4 cells and causes immunosuppression, clinical patterns of disease progression, diagnostic tests for HIV, management including antiretroviral treatment and prevention of opportunistic infections, and recent advances in HIV treatment and research including highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART) and vaccine research.

Prevention of colorectal cancer can be classified into three groups: primary prevention aims to prevent disease onset through a healthy diet, avoiding tobacco/alcohol, and supplementation. Secondary prevention uses regular check-ups and screening/imaging to enable early diagnosis and treatment. Tertiary prevention focuses on rehabilitation after illness. A diet high in red/processed meat, refined grains and sugars increases risk, while replacing these with poultry, fish, plants, unsaturated fats, and fiber can help prevent colorectal cancer. Other preventive measures include avoiding smoking, limiting alcohol, maintaining a healthy weight and activity levels, and taking supplements like vitamins, calcium, and magnesium.

No specific travel history required, but outbreaks may occur in crowded or closed environments such as schools, nursing homes, or military camps. Seasonal variation Can occur throughout the year, but may have seasonal peaks depending on the local climate and mosquito breeding patterns. More common during the winter months, but can occur throughout the year in some regions. Incubation period Usually longer, ranging from 7 to 30 days depending on the species of Plasmodium parasite. Usually shorter, ranging from 1 to 4 days. Diagnostic tests Detection of Plasmodium parasites in blood smears, blood smear microscopy, rapid diagnostic tests, or PCR-based assays. RIDTs (Naso-pharyngeal swab) , RT-PCRs, viral culture, serological tests, or clinical evaluation.

- 11. Treatment Treatment Malaria Influenza Specific therapy - Chloroquine: 10 mg/kg base over 3 days - Quinine sulfate: 25 mg/kg orally every 8 hours for 7 days - Artemisinin-based combination therapy (ACT): e.g. artemether- lumefantrine (20/120 mg or 40/240 mg tablets) - Neuraminidase inhibitors: Oseltamivir (Tamiflu): 75 mg twice daily for 5 days - Zanamivir (Relenza): 10 mg (2 inhalations) twice daily for 5 days - Peramivir (Rapivab): 600 mg IV once daily for 5 days Other supportive care Intravenous (IV) fluids, blood transfusion, oxygen therapy, antipyretics, analgesics, anticonvulsants, antihistamines, and other medications as needed. Symptomatic relief of fever, cough, sore throat, muscle aches, headache, and fatigue, including rest, hydration, nasal decongestants, cough suppressants, and pain relievers. Vaccination is the best way to prevent influenza infection.
