Chickenpox is caused by the varicella-zoster virus and spreads through the air or direct contact. It causes a red, itchy rash all over the body and small blisters that crust over. Most cases are mild and do not require treatment beyond anti-itch lotions and oatmeal baths. The chickenpox vaccine is highly effective at preventing infection. Breast cancer is caused by abnormal cell growth in the breast and symptoms include new lumps or changes in breast shape or skin. Treatment involves surgery, radiation, and chemotherapy. Regular breast exams and a healthy lifestyle can help prevent breast cancer.

This document is an acknowledgement from students of class IX-C thanking their biology teacher, Mrs. Seema Dutta, for guiding them through their project on "Why do we fall ill?". The students say that her constant guidance and monitoring was greatly supportive and helped improve their knowledge. They conclude by thanking the teacher.
Chickenpox
Chickenpox is a highly contagious disease caused by a virus that results in a blistering rash over the entire body. It primarily affects children but can be more serious in adults by potentially affecting internal organs. Symptoms include nausea, loss of appetite, headaches, and aching muscles. The characteristic sign is the appearance of clusters of blisters that spread from the chest and face to the entire body. While chickenpox is usually not dangerous for children, vaccination is recommended for adults who have not previously had the disease to prevent more serious complications. Once a person has chickenpox, they develop lifetime immunity from future occurrences of the disease.

It describes the symptoms of genital herpes outbreaks and explains that while outbreaks can be treated with antiviral medication, the virus remains dormant in the body and can reactivate periodically. It provides information on testing, preventing transmission to partners or infants, and counseling on safety during pregnancy.
Common skin diseases during adolescence
This document discusses several common skin conditions - acne, warts, and tinea (ringworm). It describes the causes, symptoms, and treatments for each condition. Acne is caused by clogged pores and bacteria, and results in blackheads and whiteheads. Warts are caused by viruses and appear as rough growths on the skin. Tinea is a fungal infection that causes ring-shaped rashes in different areas of the body like athlete's foot and jock itch. Prevention focuses on cleanliness and avoiding sharing personal items.
Sexually Transmitted Infections
Sexually transmitted infections (STIs), also known as sexually transmitted diseases (STDs), are infections that are transmitted from one person to another through sexual contact. STIs can be caused by bacteria, viruses, or parasites. Common STIs include gonorrhea, chlamydia, syphilis, genital herpes, human papillomavirus (HPV), chancroid, and pubic lice. STIs are treated with antibiotics, antiviral drugs, or other medications depending on the specific infection. It is important to complete all treatment and abstain from sex until fully healed to avoid spreading the infection.
Diseases
This document discusses various common diseases including childhood diseases like measles, chickenpox, and mumps. It also mentions common infections like colds and flu. Influenza is described as a contagious disease that can range from mild to severe like pneumonia. Cancer is defined as uncontrolled cell growth that occurs in many different forms. AIDS results from HIV infection and has no cure or vaccine, spreading mainly through sexual contact or shared needles. Infectious diseases are prevented by nurses caring for patients while stopping infection spread.

Case study
The Red Kangaroo is the largest living marsupial in Australia. It evolved adaptations like different types of milk production and hopping to survive in arid environments as Australia's climate changed. The introduction of livestock and agriculture by Europeans further increased the Red Kangaroo's habitat and food sources, causing its population to grow. Its red fur color also provides camouflage in the red Australian soil, demonstrating natural selection pressures. Overall, the environmental changes led to macroevolutionary changes in the Red Kangaroo over a long period of time.
Ddt and mosquitoes
Mosquitoes like Anopheles gambiae and Anopheles stephensi were targeted with DDT to reduce malaria. Initially DDT killed mosquitoes but they eventually evolved resistance and their populations recovered. The use of DDT also harmed other animals through bioaccumulation, though it was thought to not harm humans. This environmental change put selective pressure on mosquitoes that developed resistance, causing micro-evolution within the species.
Micro organisms
Micro-organisms are tiny one-celled organisms like bacteria, viruses, and fungi that are found everywhere in the world, both on and inside living things. They outnumber the cells that make up the human body. Micro-organisms provide benefits like helping to fight other microbes through antibiotics and vaccines, purifying waste water, and producing nitrogen for agriculture. However, they can also have harmful effects like triggering infections and allergies if they grow in homes or workplaces, causing odors on clothing and footwear, and contaminating food and water leading to food poisoning.

Novas diretrizes da OMS para os cuidados perinatais de mais qualidade
Novas diretrizes da OMS para os cuidados perinatais de mais qualidadeProf. Marcus Renato de Carvalho
Recomendações da OMS sobre cuidados maternos e neonatais para uma experiência pós-natal positiva.
Em consonância com os ODS – Objetivos do Desenvolvimento Sustentável e a Estratégia Global para a Saúde das Mulheres, Crianças e Adolescentes, e aplicando uma abordagem baseada nos direitos humanos, os esforços de cuidados pós-natais devem expandir-se para além da cobertura e da simples sobrevivência, de modo a incluir cuidados de qualidade.
Estas diretrizes visam melhorar a qualidade dos cuidados pós-natais essenciais e de rotina prestados às mulheres e aos recém-nascidos, com o objetivo final de melhorar a saúde e o bem-estar materno e neonatal.
Uma “experiência pós-natal positiva” é um resultado importante para todas as mulheres que dão à luz e para os seus recém-nascidos, estabelecendo as bases para a melhoria da saúde e do bem-estar a curto e longo prazo. Uma experiência pós-natal positiva é definida como aquela em que as mulheres, pessoas que gestam, os recém-nascidos, os casais, os pais, os cuidadores e as famílias recebem informação consistente, garantia e apoio de profissionais de saúde motivados; e onde um sistema de saúde flexível e com recursos reconheça as necessidades das mulheres e dos bebês e respeite o seu contexto cultural.
Estas diretrizes consolidadas apresentam algumas recomendações novas e já bem fundamentadas sobre cuidados pós-natais de rotina para mulheres e neonatos que recebem cuidados no pós-parto em unidades de saúde ou na comunidade, independentemente dos recursos disponíveis.
É fornecido um conjunto abrangente de recomendações para cuidados durante o período puerperal, com ênfase nos cuidados essenciais que todas as mulheres e recém-nascidos devem receber, e com a devida atenção à qualidade dos cuidados; isto é, a entrega e a experiência do cuidado recebido. Estas diretrizes atualizam e ampliam as recomendações da OMS de 2014 sobre cuidados pós-natais da mãe e do recém-nascido e complementam as atuais diretrizes da OMS sobre a gestão de complicações pós-natais.
O estabelecimento da amamentação e o manejo das principais intercorrências é contemplada.
Recomendamos muito.
Vamos discutir essas recomendações no nosso curso de pós-graduação em Aleitamento no Instituto Ciclos.

Non infectious and infectious diseases case study-Nidhi kontham
- 1. Skin Cancer and Malaria By: Nidhi Kontham
- 2. Symptoms flu High fever Chills Muscle pain Damage to- heart, lungs, kidney, brain
- 3. Prevention • Taking medicines before, after and when you are in a country where malaria is common can help prevent it. however, in come countries some parasites are resistant to these medicines. • • There are also nets and sprays that can be used for prevention against bites.
- 4. • • • • • • • places: Subsaharan africa Asia Latin america Some parts of the middle east Some part of europe Malaria often occurs in tropical and humid places. • Malaria can only occur when the temperature is above 20 degrees. Therefore malaria is not common during colder seasons in some countries or in the colder areas of countries. This is because the mosquito cannot survive in these conditions • • People with any age can get malaria, there is no age were it is common. People can even get malaria when they are a fetus and if their mother is infected with the disease. However children under 5 years old have a weaker immune system and tend to get it worse.
- 5. Symptoms unusual spots on skin Spots, moles or freckles that change in size or shape or colour A sore that doesn’t heal Spots that bleed
- 6. Prevention protecting the skin- wearing protective clothing, applying sunscreen Reducing exposure to the sun, makes skin cancer less likely for you to get
- 7. • People normally get skin cancer in summer season and season where there are very strong UV rays and times when being sunburnt is more likely. • Skin cancer is caused by exposure to UV rays. It is more likely for someone to get skin cancer as they are older, if they do then their skin becomes wrinkly and they develop moles and spots. • Skin cancer occurs in places with strong UV rays and places with heavy exposure from the sun. in the countries with the darkest shades there is the most sun exposure and most cases of skin cancer •
