Polio is caused by the poliovirus.
The vast majority of polio infections present no symptoms.
Polio has been eradicated in every country of the world except for Nigeria, Pakistan and Afghanistan.
Pregnant women are more susceptible to polio.
Around half of the people who have had polio go on to develop post-polio syndrome.
Influenza A viruses can be broken down into sub-types depending on the genes that make up the surface proteins. Over the course of a flu season, different types (A & B) and subtypes (influenza A) of influenza circulate and cause illness.
More Information about Flu Viruses
Types of Influenza Viruses
Influenza A and B viruses are responsible for seasonal flu epidemics each year.
How the Flu Virus Can Change
Influenza viruses can change in two different ways—antigenic drift and antigenic shift.
Transmission of Influenza Viruses from Animals to People
Influenza A viruses also are found in many different animals, including ducks, chickens, pigs, whales, horses and seals.
Antigenic Characterization of Influenza Viruses
“Antigens” are molecular structures on the surface of viruses that are recognized by the immune system and are capable of triggering an immune response (antibody production).
2009 H1N1 Influenza
The influenza A (H1N1) virus that emerged in 2009 caused the first global influenza pandemic in more than 40 years.
Images of Influenza Viruses
Graphics of generic influenza viruses
The rhinovirus (from the Greek ῥίς rhis "nose", gen ῥινός rhinos "of the nose", and the Latin vīrus) is the most common viral infectious agent in humans and is the predominant cause of the common cold. Rhinovirus infection proliferates in temperatures of 33–35 °C (91–95 °F), the temperatures found in the nose. Rhinoviruses belong to the genus Enterovirus in the family Picornaviridae.
The three species of rhinovirus (A, B, and C) include around 160 recognized types of human rhinovirus that differ according to their surface proteins (serotypes).[1] They are lytic in nature and are among the smallest viruses, with diameters of about 30 nanometers. By comparison, other viruses, such as smallpox and vaccinia, are around ten times larger at about 300 nanometers; while flu viruses are around 80–120 nm.

Notes of Shape and Size of RBCs, Structure of RBCs, Life Cycle of RBCs, Funct...Vamsi kumar
Red Blood Cells (RBCs) possess unique attributes essential for their function in the circulatory system. Their distinctive biconcave shape maximizes surface area for efficient gas exchange. Structurally, mature RBCs lack a nucleus, making room for hemoglobin, a molecule vital for oxygen and carbon dioxide transport. These cells undergo a lifecycle that lasts about 120 days, originating from the bone marrow and eventually being removed by the spleen. Their primary role involves ferrying oxygen to body tissues and removing carbon dioxide. Additionally, changes in RBC size, shape, or hemoglobin content can signify various medical conditions, and there are specific disorders, like anemia or sickle cell disease, that directly impact RBCs.

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.

New Directions in Targeted Therapeutic Approaches for Older Adults With Mantl...i3 Health
i3 Health is pleased to make the speaker slides from this activity available for use as a non-accredited self-study or teaching resource.
This slide deck presented by Dr. Kami Maddocks, Professor-Clinical in the Division of Hematology and
Associate Division Director for Ambulatory Operations
The Ohio State University Comprehensive Cancer Center, will provide insight into new directions in targeted therapeutic approaches for older adults with mantle cell lymphoma.
STATEMENT OF NEED
Mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) is a rare, aggressive B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) accounting for 5% to 7% of all lymphomas. Its prognosis ranges from indolent disease that does not require treatment for years to very aggressive disease, which is associated with poor survival (Silkenstedt et al, 2021). Typically, MCL is diagnosed at advanced stage and in older patients who cannot tolerate intensive therapy (NCCN, 2022). Although recent advances have slightly increased remission rates, recurrence and relapse remain very common, leading to a median overall survival between 3 and 6 years (LLS, 2021). Though there are several effective options, progress is still needed towards establishing an accepted frontline approach for MCL (Castellino et al, 2022). Treatment selection and management of MCL are complicated by the heterogeneity of prognosis, advanced age and comorbidities of patients, and lack of an established standard approach for treatment, making it vital that clinicians be familiar with the latest research and advances in this area. In this activity chaired by Michael Wang, MD, Professor in the Department of Lymphoma & Myeloma at MD Anderson Cancer Center, expert faculty will discuss prognostic factors informing treatment, the promising results of recent trials in new therapeutic approaches, and the implications of treatment resistance in therapeutic selection for MCL.
Target Audience
Hematology/oncology fellows, attending faculty, and other health care professionals involved in the treatment of patients with mantle cell lymphoma (MCL).
Learning Objectives
1.) Identify clinical and biological prognostic factors that can guide treatment decision making for older adults with MCL
2.) Evaluate emerging data on targeted therapeutic approaches for treatment-naive and relapsed/refractory MCL and their applicability to older adults
3.) Assess mechanisms of resistance to targeted therapies for MCL and their implications for treatment selection

49. Introduction
Sabouraud Dextrose Agar
(SDA)
• Sabouraud Dextrose Agar (SDA) is used for the
isolation, cultivation, and maintenance of non-
pathogenic and pathogenic species
of fungi and yeasts.
• SDA was formulated by Sabouraud in 1892 for
culturing dermatophytes.
• The pH is adjusted to approximately 5.6 in order
to enhance the growth of fungi,
especially dermatophytes, and to slightly inhibit
bacterial growth in clinical specimens.
50. Principle
The SDA media is comprised of enzymatic digest of casein (BHI) and animal tissues which
provide a nutritious source of amino acids and nitrogenous compounds for the growth of fungi
and yeasts.
Dextrose is the fermentable carbohydrate incorporated in high concentration as a carbon and
energy source.
Agar is the solidifying agent.
The addition of antibiotics like Chloramphenicol and/or tetracycline acts as broad-spectrum
antimicrobials to inhibit the growth of a wide range of gram-positive and gram-negative
bacteria.
Cyclohexamide is added to further inhibit the growth of gram-negative bacteria.
51. • Ch
Chloramphenicol – Suppress growth of
contaminating bacteria
Cycloheximide – Suppress growth of
contaminating fungi.
Brain heart infusion (BHI) with blood and
antibiotics – for primary isolation of fungi.
123. Results & interpretation
Fungi Colony morphology
1 Aspergillus flavus Yellow-green, powdery and pale yellowish on reverse
2 Aspergillus niger
The initial growth is white, becoming black later on giving “salt and
pepper appearance” which results from darkly pigmented conidia
borne in large numbers on conidiophores and reverse turning pale
yellow
3 aspergillus fumigatus Blue – green, powdery and pale yellow on reverse .
4 Trichosporon mucoides White to cream, yellowish, wrinkled
