Rheumatic fever
Rheumatic fever is an inflammatory disease that can affect the heart, joints, skin, and brain. It is caused by a prior streptococcal infection and can cause long-term damage to the heart if not properly treated. The major criteria for diagnosing rheumatic fever include polyarthritis, carditis, subcutaneous nodules, erythema marginatum, and Sydenham's chorea. Treatment involves long-term antibiotic prophylaxis with benzathine penicillin injections every 4 weeks for 5 years or more to prevent recurrence, and steroids may be used for severe heart involvement.
Linking uric acid metabolism to diabetic complications
This document discusses the relationship between uric acid metabolism and diabetic complications. It begins by providing background on uric acid metabolism and the factors that determine serum uric acid levels. It then discusses how uric acid levels are associated with type 2 diabetes and metabolic syndrome. Higher uric acid levels have been linked to an increased risk of developing type 2 diabetes. The document also reviews evidence that elevated uric acid levels are associated with a higher risk and worsening of diabetic complications, including neuropathy, retinopathy, nephropathy, foot ulcers, and macrovascular complications. Oxidative stress from xanthine oxidoreductase activity may play a role in these relationships through vascular endothelial damage and insulin resistance.
Metabolic syndrome hypertension
Metabolic syndrome is diagnosed when a patient has at least 3 of 5 conditions: high fasting glucose, high blood pressure, high triglycerides, low HDL cholesterol, and increased waist circumference. It is associated with increased risks of heart disease, stroke, diabetes, and kidney disease. Lifestyle changes including weight loss, increased physical activity, and a healthier diet are recommended as first-line interventions to reduce metabolic risk factors.
Hyperuricemia in type 2 dm
The document summarizes a study that assessed plasma levels of uric acid, glucose, adenosine deaminase, and 5'-nucleotidase in type 2 diabetic subjects and normal subjects. The study found significantly higher levels of all parameters in diabetic subjects compared to normal subjects, suggesting the raised plasma uric acid in diabetics is due to increased purine catabolism. No significant variations in parameters were found between male and female diabetics or between diabetics of different age groups or family history status. The results indicate hyperuricemia in type 2 diabetes is associated with increased degradation of purine nucleotides and nucleosides.
Infectious diseases
This study examined preventative measures taken against infectious diseases in Sunga village, Kisumu County. The researcher conducted a cross-sectional study using a questionnaire to survey 150 households about health problems and prevention. Most residents were found to treat water, use pit latrines located away from water sources, and properly dispose of waste. However, many only used mosquito nets for gardening rather than malaria prevention as intended, showing a need for more education on proper net use.
Hepatitis
Viral hepatitis refers to inflammation of the liver caused by viral infection. There are several types of hepatitis viruses, including hepatitis A, B, C, D, E, and others. These viruses are transmitted through food/water (hepatitis A/E) or blood/body fluids (hepatitis B/C/D) and cause acute or chronic liver infection and damage. Symptoms include jaundice and elevated liver enzymes. Some hepatitis viruses like A/E cause only acute infection while others like B/C can become chronic, increasing risk for long-term liver problems.
Hypertensive disorders in pregnancy 2
This document discusses hypertensive disorders in pregnancy. It begins by introducing hypertensive disorders as a major cause of maternal and neonatal morbidity and mortality. It then covers the classification of hypertensive disorders, including gestational hypertension, preeclampsia, eclampsia, chronic hypertension, and superimposed preeclampsia. The document discusses the pathophysiology, symptoms, physical findings, diagnostic testing, and classification of preeclampsia. It also introduces HELLP syndrome as a severe form of preeclampsia characterized by hemolysis, elevated liver enzymes, and low platelets.

Leukemia slides
This document provides an overview of leukemia, including:
- Leukemia is a group of cancers that affect the blood and bone marrow, resulting in excess dysfunctional blood cells. It can be fatal if untreated.
- There are several types classified by cell maturity and type of white blood cell affected, including acute myelogenous leukemia, acute lymphocytic leukemia, chronic myelogenous leukemia, and chronic lymphocytic leukemia.
- Causes are often a combination of genetic and environmental factors. Treatment involves chemotherapy and may include bone marrow transplantation to eliminate leukemic cells from the body. Nursing care focuses on managing side effects, educating patients, and providing psychosocial support.
Hypertensive emergencies [4]
This document discusses hypertensive emergencies in children. It provides guidelines for classifying blood pressure levels and determining if a patient is hypertensive. Symptoms of hypertension are outlined, including neurological, cardio-respiratory, and renal symptoms. Common causes of pediatric hypertension like renal issues and endocrine disorders are described. The approach to a hypertensive patient involves taking a thorough history, physical exam, assessments, and treating any underlying causes or using antihypertensive medications. Treatment for severe hypertension may include addressing obstructive uropathy, diuretics for fluid overload, targeted therapies, and medications like labetolol, hydrallazine, or captopril.
Kidney injury vs kidney failure
Kidney injury causes damage to kidney tissue without necessarily causing organ failure, while kidney failure indicates the kidneys are no longer able to adequately filter waste and fluids from the blood. The document discusses markers for detecting kidney injury and failure such as microalbumin, macroalbumin and INGAL in urine. It also provides examples of calculating glomerular filtration rate based on age, weight and serum creatinine. Finally, it defines the stages of acute kidney injury based on increases in serum creatinine and reductions in urine output.
Hyperuricemia in t2 dm
This document discusses hyperuricemia, or high levels of uric acid, in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2 DM). It notes that insulin deficiency or subnormal insulin function may alter purine metabolism and uric acid turnover. A study assessed uric acid levels in T2 DM patients and found raised levels of enzymes involved in purine catabolism, suggesting increased purine breakdown leads to higher uric acid in these patients.
Epnone in ccf
This document discusses heart failure, its causes, symptoms, and treatments. It notes that heart failure is a growing concern, with more than 20 million cases worldwide. While treatments like diuretics, ACE inhibitors, and beta blockers are used, aldosterone levels remain high in many patients. The document examines the role of the aldosterone antagonist eplerenone in improving outcomes for heart failure and resistant hypertension patients when added to standard therapy. Clinical trials demonstrate eplerenone reduces mortality, hospitalizations, and blood pressure more effectively than other aldosterone antagonists.
Asthma attack reatment abreviated
This document provides information on the diagnosis and management of asthma. It defines asthma, outlines its pathophysiology involving inflammation, remodeling and hyperreactivity. It discusses assessing and monitoring asthma severity, controlling contributing factors, pharmacological treatments including inhaled corticosteroids and bronchodilators, and the importance of patient education. The document also covers acute exacerbations, assessing severity and treating with oxygen, bronchodilators and corticosteroids which are the mainstay of treatment.
Diuretics in management of ht
56% of Kenyans have never had their blood pressure measured, and only 22.3% of those diagnosed with hypertension were on medication. Chlorthalidone is recommended over hydrochlorothiazide as a first-line treatment for hypertension due to its longer half-life, proven reductions in cardiovascular events in clinical trials, and ability to provide sustained 24-hour blood pressure control, including important nighttime blood pressure control. Guidelines, experts, and textbooks preferentially recommend chlorthalidone over hydrochlorothiazide as an initial treatment for hypertension.
Diabetic emergencies
HHNS is a life-threatening complication of diabetes that occurs when blood sugar levels become very high without ketosis. It is caused by severe dehydration and lack of insulin in the body. Symptoms include confusion, drowsiness, flushed skin, and fruity breath odor.
Ckd icd 9-cm classification
This document proposes revisions to ICD-9-CM codes for classifying chronic kidney disease (CKD). It outlines stages of CKD based on glomerular filtration rate and proteinuria levels. The current codes do not distinguish CKD from end-stage renal disease (ESRD) or capture disease severity. The proposed changes would add codes to classify CKD stages 1-5, indicate presence of proteinuria, and code for underlying etiologies. This enhanced classification system could help determine patient risk, guide treatment, and assess quality of care for CKD.
Clinic patients 05 12 - 2017
The document contains medical notes on four patients seen on June 12, 2017. It records details of each patient's medical history, current symptoms, physical exam findings, lab results, current medications and the doctor's treatment plans. For one patient, the plan is to start new medications and change an existing one to treat an enlarged prostate and elevated prostate-specific antigen. A second patient is advised to continue current medications and start new ones to treat prostate symptoms and arthritis. The third has diabetes and is advised to adjust his insulin regimen and add new medications to improve his blood sugar control and treat kidney disease. The fourth patient discusses her medical and personal situation and the plan is to continue her current medications with some adjustments.
Ckd in kenya
CKD disproportionately affects the population in Kenya compared to the US, where only 0.7% have advanced stages versus higher percentages in Kenya. Risk factors for CKD in Kenya include diabetes, hypertension, older age, family history, male gender, and racial/ethnic background. Strategies to reduce progression of CKD in Kenya include increasing physician awareness, public education for at-risk groups on self-care, and regular screening campaigns. Early intervention can help prevent many cases from progressing to end-stage renal disease.
Acute kidney injury asa guidelines
This document provides clinical practice guidelines for the management of Acute Kidney Injury (AKI). It discusses the definition and staging systems for AKI, epidemiology and outcomes. Prevention, management, treatment facilities and timing of renal replacement therapy are covered. Guidelines are provided on choice of renal replacement modality, dialyser membranes, vascular access, anticoagulation, and prescription of renal replacement therapy. There is a lack of evidence to guide optimal care and timing of renal replacement therapy. The document aims to standardize care and improve outcomes of patients with AKI.
Creating transparency in emerging health systems
SafeCare has developed quality standards and an improvement methodology for benchmarking basic healthcare facilities in low-middle income countries. The standards were approved by ISQua and aim to increase transparency by making medical and financial risks more visible and identifying gaps in quality. This increased transparency builds trust between patients, providers, financers, and governments and paves the way for sustainable investments in quality improvement. By using the SafeCare methodology, key stakeholders are more willing to invest in strengthening health systems. The overall goal is to break the cycle of poor quality and low demand for healthcare by improving scale and access through investments driven by transparency around risks and quality gaps.

This document provides an overview of congestive heart failure, including:
1. Heart failure results from structural or functional abnormalities that impair the ventricle's ability to pump or fill with blood.
2. A vicious cycle occurs where heart dysfunction causes fluid retention through activation of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system.
3. Treatment involves controlling symptoms with diuretics and drugs like ACE inhibitors, beta blockers, and aldosterone antagonists to slow disease progression.
Liver cirrhosis2
This document provides an overview of liver cirrhosis. It discusses that the most common causes in the US are alcoholic liver disease and hepatitis C. Cirrhosis can lead to numerous complications such as ascites, spontaneous bacterial peritonitis, hepatorenal syndrome, and hepatocellular carcinoma. The diagnosis of cirrhosis involves liver biopsy or clinical and lab findings that strongly suggest cirrhosis. Treatment focuses on managing complications and potentially liver transplantation for decompensated cirrhosis.
Migraine
Migraine is a type of headache that causes severe throbbing pain on one side of the head. It is often accompanied by nausea, vomiting, and sensitivity to light and sound. Migraines can last for hours to days and be disabling. They are caused by changes in brain chemicals and activity in the trigeminal nerve. Factors like hormones, foods, drinks, stress, and sensory stimuli can trigger migraines. Treatment involves pain relievers, preventive medications, and lifestyle changes.
Venous thrombo embolism
Venous thromboembolism (VTE) is a condition where a blood clot forms in a vein. Common types of VTE include deep vein thrombosis (DVT), which typically occurs in the legs, and pulmonary embolism (PE), which occurs if part of the clot breaks off and travels to the lungs. Risk factors for VTE include recent surgery, trauma, cancer, prolonged immobility, older age, and genetic predispositions.

Cell Therapy Expansion and Challenges in Autoimmune Disease
There is increasing confidence that cell therapies will soon play a role in the treatment of autoimmune disorders, but the extent of this impact remains to be seen. Early readouts on autologous CAR-Ts in lupus are encouraging, but manufacturing and cost limitations are likely to restrict access to highly refractory patients. Allogeneic CAR-Ts have the potential to broaden access to earlier lines of treatment due to their inherent cost benefits, however they will need to demonstrate comparable or improved efficacy to established modalities.
In addition to infrastructure and capacity constraints, CAR-Ts face a very different risk-benefit dynamic in autoimmune compared to oncology, highlighting the need for tolerable therapies with low adverse event risk. CAR-NK and Treg-based therapies are also being developed in certain autoimmune disorders and may demonstrate favorable safety profiles. Several novel non-cell therapies such as bispecific antibodies, nanobodies, and RNAi drugs, may also offer future alternative competitive solutions with variable value propositions.
Widespread adoption of cell therapies will not only require strong efficacy and safety data, but also adapted pricing and access strategies. At oncology-based price points, CAR-Ts are unlikely to achieve broad market access in autoimmune disorders, with eligible patient populations that are potentially orders of magnitude greater than the number of currently addressable cancer patients. Developers have made strides towards reducing cell therapy COGS while improving manufacturing efficiency, but payors will inevitably restrict access until more sustainable pricing is achieved.
Despite these headwinds, industry leaders and investors remain confident that cell therapies are poised to address significant unmet need in patients suffering from autoimmune disorders. However, the extent of this impact on the treatment landscape remains to be seen, as the industry rapidly approaches an inflection point.
