Remember that person or super hero you looked up to when you were a kid? Did you try and emulate their best qualities?
Think about the qualities you'd like you child to develop. Here are nine life character traits that you can help your child learn.

We are disappointed when things don’t go the way we thought they were going to go. Wrong expectations lead to disappointment, and disappointment leads to despair and finally giving up.
This lesson focuses on asking what the wise thing to do is in light of your past experiences, your present circumstances, and your future plans and dreams.

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.

Cardiac conduction defects can occur due to various causes.
Atrioventricular conduction blocks ( AV blocks ) are classified into 3 types.

ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE IN HEALTHCARE.pdfAnujkumaranit
Artificial intelligence (AI) refers to the simulation of human intelligence processes by machines, especially computer systems. It encompasses tasks such as learning, reasoning, problem-solving, perception, and language understanding. AI technologies are revolutionizing various fields, from healthcare to finance, by enabling machines to perform tasks that typically require human intelligence.

Title: Sense of Taste
Presenter: Dr. Faiza, Assistant Professor of Physiology
Qualifications:
MBBS (Best Graduate, AIMC Lahore)
FCPS Physiology
ICMT, CHPE, DHPE (STMU)
MPH (GC University, Faisalabad)
MBA (Virtual University of Pakistan)
Learning Objectives:
Describe the structure and function of taste buds.
Describe the relationship between the taste threshold and taste index of common substances.
Explain the chemical basis and signal transduction of taste perception for each type of primary taste sensation.
Recognize different abnormalities of taste perception and their causes.
Key Topics:
Significance of Taste Sensation:
Differentiation between pleasant and harmful food
Influence on behavior
Selection of food based on metabolic needs
Receptors of Taste:
Taste buds on the tongue
Influence of sense of smell, texture of food, and pain stimulation (e.g., by pepper)
Primary and Secondary Taste Sensations:
Primary taste sensations: Sweet, Sour, Salty, Bitter, Umami
Chemical basis and signal transduction mechanisms for each taste
Taste Threshold and Index:
Taste threshold values for Sweet (sucrose), Salty (NaCl), Sour (HCl), and Bitter (Quinine)
Taste index relationship: Inversely proportional to taste threshold
Taste Blindness:
Inability to taste certain substances, particularly thiourea compounds
Example: Phenylthiocarbamide
Structure and Function of Taste Buds:
Composition: Epithelial cells, Sustentacular/Supporting cells, Taste cells, Basal cells
Features: Taste pores, Taste hairs/microvilli, and Taste nerve fibers
Location of Taste Buds:
Found in papillae of the tongue (Fungiform, Circumvallate, Foliate)
Also present on the palate, tonsillar pillars, epiglottis, and proximal esophagus
Mechanism of Taste Stimulation:
Interaction of taste substances with receptors on microvilli
Signal transduction pathways for Umami, Sweet, Bitter, Sour, and Salty tastes
Taste Sensitivity and Adaptation:
Decrease in sensitivity with age
Rapid adaptation of taste sensation
Role of Saliva in Taste:
Dissolution of tastants to reach receptors
Washing away the stimulus
Taste Preferences and Aversions:
Mechanisms behind taste preference and aversion
Influence of receptors and neural pathways
Impact of Sensory Nerve Damage:
Degeneration of taste buds if the sensory nerve fiber is cut
Abnormalities of Taste Detection:
Conditions: Ageusia, Hypogeusia, Dysgeusia (parageusia)
Causes: Nerve damage, neurological disorders, infections, poor oral hygiene, adverse drug effects, deficiencies, aging, tobacco use, altered neurotransmitter levels
Neurotransmitters and Taste Threshold:
Effects of serotonin (5-HT) and norepinephrine (NE) on taste sensitivity
Supertasters:
25% of the population with heightened sensitivity to taste, especially bitterness
Increased number of fungiform papillae

Father to Dad’, published in 2006.
Anyone can be a Father, it takes much more to be a
Dad.
4. As a parent or caregiver, it is crucial that
you can recognise your own intimacy
needs, before then recognising the
intimacy needs of your child.
How your intimacy needs were met or
went unmet in your own childhood

30. Top 10 Signs of a Parent-
Child Power Struggle
1) Your throat is sore at the end of the day from
yelling
2) Your most frequent for of discipline is spanking
3) Attempting to enforce strict rules in virtually all
normal day-to-day routines
4) You tend to be more critical than complimentary
5) You lack humor in your relationship with your
child
31. Top 10 Signs of a Parent-
Child Power Struggle
6) You offer little or no nurture in the way of
physical contact. When you do offer affection
and the child does not respond the way you
expect, you become enraged
7) When you discipline your child for disobedience
you feel that it is “never enough”. You are unable
to clear the slate emotionally.
8) You have great difficulty confessing your own
faults to your child. Letting your child see your
faults may actually bring on a power struggle.
32. Top 10 Signs of a Parent-
Child Power Struggle
9) You feel that your child has the power to inflame
your anger with the slightest of body language
(eyes, shoulder, arm, feet movements, voice
inflections, etc.)
10) You find yourself using shaming words about
your child on a regular basis. (You always… you
never… calling them stupid, idiot, good-for-
nothing, your brother never does that…)
33. 1) Be Decisive
2) Be Positive
3) Explain yourself
4) Make rule
impersonal
5) Be brief and clear
34. 6) Offer a choice whenever possible
7) Reward good behaviour
8) Know when not to get involved
9) Work together
10)Pick your battles
35. A hundred years
from now it won’t
matter what my
bank account was,
the sort of house I
lived in, the kind of
car I drove. But
the world may be
different because I
was important in
the life of a child.

Teacher
36. Take a moment to listen today
To what your children are trying to say
Listen today whatever you do
Or they won’t be there to listen to you
Listen to their problems
Listen to their needs
Praise their smallest triumphs
Praise their smallest deeds
37. Tolerate their chatter
Amplify their laughter
Find out what’s the matter
Find out what they’re after
But tell them that you love them every single night
And though you scold them be sure you gold them
Tell them everything is alright
Tomorrow’s looking bright
38. Feels good
Builds self-esteem (wow!
They actually want to hug ME!)
Dispels loneliness
Overcomes fear
Slows down ageing
Huggers stay younger longer
39. Is portable
Affirms physical well-being
Is energy efficient, saves heat
Makes impossible days possible
Makes happier days happier
40. Eases tension
Fights insomnia
Keeps arm and shoulder muscles in
good condition
Is ecologically sound
Does not upset the environment
Is democratic
Anyone is eligible for a hug
