This document discusses the characteristics of benign and malignant neoplasms. It describes how malignant tumors are less differentiated, grow faster, are more locally invasive, and can metastasize to other parts of the body compared to benign tumors. The document also discusses epidemiological factors that affect cancer incidence such as geographic location, age, heredity, and preexisting conditions. Common cancer types and causes of cancer death worldwide are also presented.
Neoplasia - Characteristics & Classification of Neoplasm Chhavi Singh
This power point presentation take a detail note on neoplasm (cancer), types of neoplasm, stages of neoplasm, various kinds of carcinogens. This presentation also take interest in the classification and characteristics of the tumor & difference between the normal cells and tumor cells.
Neoplasia
Overview
Characteristics of neoplasms compared to normal tissues
Types of neoplasms
Benign vs malignant
Cellular differentiation
Genetic basis for neoplasia
What is a “neoplasm”?
Lay term of “tumor” conveys usual connotations – ie a new growth or mass
Definition revolves around these features:
Monoclonal proliferation of cells with specific mutations
Excessive and unregulated growth of these cells, often at the expense of surrounding normal tissue
Terms to know about when discussing neoplasia
Metastasis - spread of a malignant tumor from one site to another via blood or lymph
Benign – typically refers to those tumors incapable of metastasis and having a good clinical outcome (prognosis)
Malignant – those tumors capable of invasive growth and/or metastasis, often fatal if not treated effectively
Parenchyma – these are the tumor cells themselves, usually referring to epithelial cells in organs.
Stroma – connective tissue cells that support the parenchymal cells – not actually tumor cells, but are stimulated to grow by the tumor via growth factors, eg angiogenesis
Cellular differentiation
Tumors are often “graded” as to how closely they resemble the normal parent tissue that they are derived from.
Well-differentiated means the cells are very similar in appearance and architectural arrangement to normal tissue of that organ
Differentiation
“Poorly-differentiated” refers to tumors that show only minimal resemblance to the normal parent tissue they are derived from.
“Anaplastic” means the tumor shows no obvious similarity to it’s parent tissue, usually associated with aggressive behavior
So what??????
Differentiation often provides clues as to the clinical aggressiveness of the tumor
Tumors often lose differentiation features over time as they become more “malignant” and as they acquire more cumulative genetic mutations
Differentiation often predicts responsiveness to certain therapies, eg estrogen receptors and Tamoxifen in breast cancers
Benign
– circumscribed, often encapsulated, pushes normal tissue aside
Malignant
– infiltrative growth, no capsule, destructive of normal tissues
Classification of neoplasms
Epithelial tumors
Benign forms – adenoma , papilloma
Malignant forms – carcinoma, eg adenocarcinoma, squamous cell carcinoma
Mesenchymal tumors
Benign forms – fibroma, leiomyoma,
Malignant forms – sarcoma, eg fibrosarcoma, leiomyosarcoma
Classification continued
Tumors of lymphocytes are always malignant – called lymphoma
Tumors of melanocytes
Benign – nevus
Malignant - melanoma
Precursors of neoplasia
Hyperplasia
Metaplasia
Chronic inflammation
dysplasia

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

Differentiation means : the extent to which
the parenchymal cells of the tumor
resemble their normal counterparts
morphologically and functionally
5. NeoplasiaNeoplasia
well differentiated = closely resemble their
normal counterparts
Moderately differentiated
Poorly differentiated
Undifferentiated ( Anaplasia )

Metastasis :Metastasis :
Cancers have different ability to metastasize
Approximately 30% patients present with
clinically evident metastases.
Generally, the more anaplastic and the larger the
primary tumor, the more likely is metastasis
22. NeoplasiaNeoplasia

27. NeoplasiaNeoplasia
Dysplasia :Dysplasia :
Definition: a loss in the uniformity of the individual
cells and a loss in their architectural orientation.
Non-neoplastic
Occurs mainly in the epithelium
Dysplastic cells shows a degree of : pleomorphism,
hyperchromasia, increased mitosis and loss of
polarity.
28. NeoplasiaNeoplasia
Dysplasia does not mean cancer
Dyplasia does not necessarily progress to
cancer
Dysplasia may be reversible
If dysplastic changes involve the entire
thickness of the epithelium it is called :
CARCINOMA IN-SITU
30. NeoplasiaNeoplasia
Carcinoma in-situCarcinoma in-situ
Definition: an intraepithelial malignancy in
which malignant cells involve the entire
thickness of the epithelium without penetration
of the basement membrane.
Applicable only to epithelial neoplasms.
31. Carcinoma in situ
Low power view shows that epithelium is
entirely replaced by atypical cells. There is no
orderly differentiation of squamous cells. The
basement membrane is intact, & no tumor in
the sub-epithelial stroma.
Carcinoma in situ
High power view of another region shows
failure of normal differentiation, marked nuclear
& cellular pleomorphism, and numerous mitotic
figures extending toward surface.
