The document discusses five important aspects of neuropsychology:
1) Everything psychological originates from thoughts in the brain in response to sensory input.
2) Neurons transmit messages through action potentials and synaptic transmission.
3) The brainstem controls arousal, movement, breathing, and heart rate. The limbic system controls emotions and drives.
4) The cerebral cortex is divided into four lobes controlling movement, senses, vision, and language. The hemispheres control opposite sides of the body.
5) The peripheral nervous system connects the central nervous system to the body, and is divided into the autonomic and somatic systems. The central nervous system is the brain and spinal cord.
Understanding the encoding of memory and its retrieval is a complex task. The neurobiological correlates of memory have been summarised in this presentation for easy understanding of students.
Cognitive Neuroscience - Current Perspectives And Approaches Vivek Misra
Cognitive neuroscience is an academic field concerned with the scientific study of biological substrates underlying cognition, with a specific focus on the neural substrates of mental processes. It addresses the questions of how psychological/cognitive functions are produced by neural circuits in the brain.
In current slides, I tried to cover History, Basic Concepts and Research Methods currently used in cognitive neuroscience research.
Biopsychology is the study of why the brain is the command center and how it influences behaviors, thoughts and feelings. This field of psychology has gained popularity in recent years, and much is being learned about the human mind.

Emotion is a complex psycho-physiological experience of an individual's state of mind as interacting with biochemical (internal) and environmental (external) influences.
James-Lange Theory:
The James-Lange theory of emotion argues that an event causes physiological arousal first and then we interpret this arousal. Only after our interpretation of the arousal can we experience emotion. If the arousal is not noticed or is not given any thought, then we will not experience any emotion based on this event.
EXAMPLE: You are walking down a dark alley late at night. You hear footsteps behind you and you begin to tremble, your heart beats faster, and your breathing deepens. You notice these physiological changes and interpret them as your body's preparation for a fearful situation. You then experience fear.
Cannon-Bard Theory:
EXAMPLE: You are walking down a dark alley late at night. You hear footsteps behind you and you begin to tremble, your heart beats faster, and your breathing deepens. At the same time as these physiological changes occur you also experience the emotion of fear.
Schachter-Singer Theory:
EXAMPLE: You are walking down a dark alley late at night. You hear footsteps behind you and you begin to tremble, your heart beats faster, and your breathing deepens. Upon noticing this arousal you realize that is comes from the fact that you are walking down a dark alley by yourself. This behavior is dangerous and therefore you feel the emotion of fear.
Facial Feedback Theory
EXAMPLE: You are walking down a dark alley late at night. You hear footsteps behind you and your eyes widen, your teeth clench and your brain interprets these facial changes as the expression of fear. Therefore you experience the emotion of fear.
Positive Emotions:
Love is a very basic and necessary emotion. If a child is nurtured in a loving family where all members respect and love each other, he or she will develop into an adult who behaves in a manner similar to the behavioral patterns that he or she learned as a child.
Negative Emotions:
If the child is raised in an atmosphere of anger and hostility, that child will develop into a very troubled adult who thinks that angry and hostile feelings are normal.
The nervous system of vertebrates (including humans) is divided into the central nervous system (CNS) and the peripheral nervous system (PNS). The (CNS) is the major division, and consists of the brain and the spinal cord. The spinal canal contains the spinal cord, while the cranial cavity contains the brain.
It is the part of central nervous system.
Complex organ that controls every process that regulates human body.
Located in cranium
cranium and bones that protects the brain is called skull
In terms of weight, the average adult human brain weighs in at 1300 to 1400 grams or around 3 pounds
In terms of length, the average brain is around 15 centimeters long.
There are 3 main parts of the brain
Forebrain
Midbrain
Hindbrain
Forebrain is divided into 3 functional parts
Thalamus
Cerebrum
Limbic system
Thalamus : Thalamus carries sensory information to the limbic system and cerebrum. The information includes sensory input from auditory and visual pathways, from the skin and from within the body.
Cerebrum: The largest part of the brain, the cerebrum initiates and coordinates movement and regulates temperature. Other areas of the cerebrum enable speech, judgment, thinking and reasoning, problem-solving, emotions and learning. Other functions relate to vision, hearing, touch and other senses. Further divided into 2 halves:
Right cerebral hemisphere (control the functions of left part of body)
Left cerebral hemisphere (controls the functions of rights part of the body)
Cerebral cortex is the outer layer of cerebrum. This part receives sensory information, processes it, stores some in memory for future use, directs voluntary movements, and is responsible for the poorly understood process that we call thinking.
Lobes of cerebral cortex:
Parietal Lobe Located below the crown of the head Processes sensory information from the whole body (information about pain, touch, and pressure)
Frontal Lobe Located right behind the forehead Responsible for initiating and coordinating motor movements and higher cognitive skills like problem solving and thinking
Occipital Lobe Located in the back of the brain, against the skull Processes all the visual information coming into the brain
Temporal Lobe Located behind the temples and just above the ears In charge of making sense of the information you hear Integrates information from various senses, such as smell and vision
Limbic system: The limbic system is located in an arc between the thalamus and cerebrum. Limbic system works together to produce our most basic and primitive emotions, drives, and behaviors, including fear, rage, tranquility, hunger, thirst, pleasure and sexual responses. Portion of limbic system is also important in the formation of memories. It is further divided into 3 parts:
Amygdala (regulate emotions, such as fear and aggression)
Hippocampus (storage of long term memory)
Hypothalamus (major coordinating center controlling body temperature, hunger, the menstrual cycle, water balance, the sleep-wake cycle through hormone production)
Midbrain is reduced in humans, and it contains auditory relay center and center that controls relax movements of eyes.
Midbrain contains reticular formation, which is a relay center connecting hindbrain with the forebrain.
Reticular formation is very i
Here's a brief introduction to control and coordination class 10 science:
"Control and coordination are fundamental processes in living organisms that ensure proper functioning and response to stimuli. In simpler terms, control refers to the regulation of various activities within an organism, while coordination involves the harmonious integration of these activities. In humans and many other animals, control and coordination are primarily carried out by the nervous system and the endocrine system. The nervous system allows for rapid responses to stimuli through nerve impulses, while the endocrine system regulates physiological processes using chemical messengers called hormones. Together, these systems ensure that organisms can adapt to changes in their environment, maintain internal balance (homeostasis), and carry out essential functions for survival and well-being."

NVBDCP was launched in 2003-2004 . Vector-Borne Disease: Disease that results from an infection transmitted to humans and other animals by blood-feeding arthropods, such as mosquitoes, ticks, and fleas. Examples of vector-borne diseases include Dengue fever, West Nile Virus, Lyme disease, and malaria.
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.
Acute scrotum is a general term referring to an emergency condition affecting the contents or the wall of the scrotum.
There are a number of conditions that present acutely, predominantly with pain and/or swelling
A careful and detailed history and examination, and in some cases, investigations allow differentiation between these diagnoses. A prompt diagnosis is essential as the patient may require urgent surgical intervention
Testicular torsion refers to twisting of the spermatic cord, causing ischaemia of the testicle.
Testicular torsion results from inadequate fixation of the testis to the tunica vaginalis producing ischemia from reduced arterial inflow and venous outflow obstruction.
The prevalence of testicular torsion in adult patients hospitalized with acute scrotal pain is approximately 25 to 50 percent

Lung Cancer: Artificial Intelligence, Synergetics, Complex System Analysis, S...Oleg Kshivets
RESULTS: Overall life span (LS) was 2252.1±1742.5 days and cumulative 5-year survival (5YS) reached 73.2%, 10 years – 64.8%, 20 years – 42.5%. 513 LCP lived more than 5 years (LS=3124.6±1525.6 days), 148 LCP – more than 10 years (LS=5054.4±1504.1 days).199 LCP died because of LC (LS=562.7±374.5 days). 5YS of LCP after bi/lobectomies was significantly superior in comparison with LCP after pneumonectomies (78.1% vs.63.7%, P=0.00001 by log-rank test). AT significantly improved 5YS (66.3% vs. 34.8%) (P=0.00000 by log-rank test) only for LCP with N1-2. Cox modeling displayed that 5YS of LCP significantly depended on: phase transition (PT) early-invasive LC in terms of synergetics, PT N0—N12, cell ratio factors (ratio between cancer cells- CC and blood cells subpopulations), G1-3, histology, glucose, AT, blood cell circuit, prothrombin index, heparin tolerance, recalcification time (P=0.000-0.038). Neural networks, genetic algorithm selection and bootstrap simulation revealed relationships between 5YS and PT early-invasive LC (rank=1), PT N0—N12 (rank=2), thrombocytes/CC (3), erythrocytes/CC (4), eosinophils/CC (5), healthy cells/CC (6), lymphocytes/CC (7), segmented neutrophils/CC (8), stick neutrophils/CC (9), monocytes/CC (10); leucocytes/CC (11). Correct prediction of 5YS was 100% by neural networks computing (area under ROC curve=1.0; error=0.0).
CONCLUSIONS: 5YS of LCP after radical procedures significantly depended on: 1) PT early-invasive cancer; 2) PT N0--N12; 3) cell ratio factors; 4) blood cell circuit; 5) biochemical factors; 6) hemostasis system; 7) AT; 8) LC characteristics; 9) LC cell dynamics; 10) surgery type: lobectomy/pneumonectomy; 11) anthropometric data. Optimal diagnosis and treatment strategies for LC are: 1) screening and early detection of LC; 2) availability of experienced thoracic surgeons because of complexity of radical procedures; 3) aggressive en block surgery and adequate lymph node dissection for completeness; 4) precise prediction; 5) adjuvant chemoimmunoradiotherapy for LCP with unfavorable prognosis.

Pulmonary Thromboembolism - etilogy, types, medical- Surgical and nursing man...VarunMahajani
Disruption of blood supply to lung alveoli due to blockage of one or more pulmonary blood vessels is called as Pulmonary thromboembolism. In this presentation we will discuss its causes, types and its management in depth.
3. “Everything psychological is simultaneously biological.”
What does this mean exactly? Basically, everything we do comes from a
thought whether it is conscious or subconscious. These thoughts originate
from the brain as a result of various kinds of sensory input. The brain gathers
this input, considers how it should respond, and initiates a reaction. Then,
after the action is complete the mind thinks about how to react further, thus
creating a chain reaction.
5. A neuron, a.k.a. a nerve
cell, is considered to be
the basic building block
of the nervous system. It
contains a cell body and
its branching fibers,
which include the
dendrites, axon, and
terminal branches.
6. Neurons can transmit messages when they are triggered by signals from our
senses or when they are stimulated by chemical signals from other neighbor
neurons. In response to this, the neuron will fire what is known as an action
potential which is generated by depolarization.
The action potential then travels along the axon to the terminal branches
where it will cross a synaptic gap and onto the dendrites of the receiving
neuron.
9. The brainstem is the brain’s oldest and innermost region.
Structure: Thalamus, Reticular formation, pons, medulla, and cerebellum.
Functions:
Thalamus- receives and relays sensory information to the appropriate locations
Reticular Formation- filters incoming stimuli, controls arousal and alertness
Pons- coordinates movements and controls sleep
Medulla- controls heartbeat and breathing
Cerebellum- learning and skill memory, coordinates voluntary movement
10. The limbic system lies between the older and newer brain and contains the
amygdala, the hypothalamus, and the hippocampus.
Functions:
Amygdala- controls aggression and fear
Hypothalamus- influences hunger, thirst, body temperature, the pituitary
gland, and sexual arousal
Hippocampus- processes memories
12. The cerebral cortex is a thin layer of neural cells that covers the two
hemispheres of the brain. Each hemisphere’s cortex is divided further into
four lobes. Which are:
Frontal lobe: behind your forehead;
involved in speaking, muscle
movements, making plans and
judgement
Parietal lobe: top and to the rear;
receives sensory input for touch
Occipital lobe: back of the head;
receives info from visual fields
Temporal lobe: above the ear;
receives auditory info
13. The important things to remember about the hemispheres in the brain are:
-Left hemisphere controls speech, calculations, and the right side of the body
-Right hemisphere controls interpretation, perception, and the left side of the
body
16. The PNS is a part of the nervous system that is responsible for gathering and
transferring CNS information to other areas in the body.
The PNS is composed of two smaller system, which are the somatic and
autonomic systems.
-The autonomic nervous system has even smaller systems called the
sympathetic (alarm) and parasympathetic (calm) nervous systems.
-The somatic nervous system allows control of our skeletal muscles.
17. The CNS is composed of the brain and spinal cord.
The brain is what processes and coordinates our information, as well as
forms neural networks for fast connection.
The spinal cord acts as a two-way information highway that connects the PNS
to the brain. It relays information to and from the brain and coordinates
reflexes.
