During an autopsy, the lungs, liver, and brain are examined for signs of disease or damage. Common lung findings include congestion, inflammation, and fluid in the air sacs, which can result from infections, heart failure, or toxins. The liver is checked for inflammation, fatty liver disease, cirrhosis, and cancer from factors like viruses, alcohol, or medications. The brain is assessed for swelling, tissue death from lack of blood flow, and bleeding, as well as conditions such as Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, and multiple sclerosis that cause specific pathological changes.

Hepatic failure can be acute or chronic and results from the liver's inability to perform normal functions. Acute hepatic failure progresses rapidly over weeks while chronic failure occurs over months to years. Common causes include viral hepatitis, alcohol abuse, and cirrhosis. Complications include encephalopathy, coagulopathy, and multi-organ failure. Prognosis depends on the underlying cause and ranges from recovery with acute cases to death within weeks to months with chronic cases without transplantation.
LIVER CIRRHOSIS.pptx
Cirrhosis is a disease where healthy liver tissue is replaced with scar tissue, preventing the liver from functioning properly. Common causes include hepatitis C, alcohol abuse, and fatty liver disease. As cirrhosis progresses, scar tissue blocks blood flow through the liver and causes symptoms like jaundice, confusion, and fluid retention. Treatment focuses on managing complications, reducing liver damage progression through lifestyle changes, and transplantation for severe cases.
Case study
1) The patient, a 70-year-old male, presented with abdominal distention, weakness, decreased appetite and weight loss. His history included alcoholism and smoking.
2) Laboratory tests showed abnormalities indicative of liver damage including low hemoglobin and albumin levels as well as elevated liver enzymes. Ultrasound found changes to the liver, gallbladder and spleen.
3) Based on the clinical presentation and test results, the patient was diagnosed with alcoholic liver cirrhosis. Treatment focused on cessation of alcohol consumption and supplementation to address malnutrition.

It presents with muddy brown casts or renal tubular cells in the urine and increased creatinine and BUN. Management involves treating the underlying cause, stopping nephrotoxic drugs, managing fluid balance and electrolyte abnormalities, and considering dialysis for refractory complications like fluid overload or uremia. Prognosis depends on the severity of the initial injury and development of complications.
SHOCK.pptx
Shock is defined as inadequate tissue perfusion due to decreased oxygen delivery or utilization leading to cellular hypoxia. It is a life-threatening condition characterized by circulatory failure and hypotension. There are four main types of shock: distributive, hypovolemic, cardiogenic, and obstructive. Septic shock, a form of distributive shock, results from a dysregulated immune response to infection leading to vasodilation and hypotension. Management of septic shock involves fluid resuscitation, vasopressor support, antibiotic treatment, and control of the underlying infection. The pathophysiology is complex, involving an interplay between the immune system, inflammatory response, and cardiovascular system.
Spleen NMS
The document provides information on the anatomy, physiology, and pathologic conditions of the spleen. It discusses the spleen's development, location, vasculature, and functions including filtering blood and immune roles. Secondary hypersplenism is defined as being caused by an underlying disease like disorders of splenic blood flow, hematopoietic disorders, immune disorders, infiltrative disorders, infections, or neoplasms. Specific conditions discussed in detail include hereditary spherocytosis, idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura, myeloid metaplasia, and splenic abscess.
Nephritis
Nephritis refers to inflammation of the kidneys that can be caused by various factors like infection, autoimmune disease, or kidney disease. It affects the glomeruli, tubules, or surrounding tissue and can lead to impaired kidney function. Symptoms vary depending on the specific type and cause of nephritis but may include blood or protein in the urine, high blood pressure, swelling, and changes in kidney function test results. Treatment involves addressing the underlying cause, managing complications, and potentially using medications, dietary changes, or dialysis.
L 1.approach to cyanosis
Internal medicine deals with diagnosing and treating diseases in adults. It has many subspecialties including cardiology, endocrinology, and pulmonology. In diagnosing a patient, doctors take a history, do an examination, and order investigations. Cyanosis is a blue skin or mucous membrane discoloration caused by low oxygen levels in the blood. It can be central, indicating a cardiac or pulmonary problem, or peripheral, caused by vasoconstriction. Assessing cyanosis involves considering onset, symptoms, risk factors, and family history, as well as examining vital signs, listening to the heart and lungs, and obtaining oxygen saturation readings, chest x-rays, and other tests.
Acute kidney injury
Acute kidney injury (AKI) is the rapid loss of kidney function that can be caused by physical injury, infection, toxins, or decreased blood flow to the kidneys. AKI leads to cell damage and loss of renal function. Treatment focuses on correcting the underlying cause, controlling complications through fluid management and dialysis, and allowing the kidneys time to recover. Nursing care involves close monitoring for changes in urine output, fluid balance, and laboratory values to guide treatment and detect early signs of complications.
Nephrotic syndroms
Nephrotic syndrome is a kidney disorder characterized by protein in the urine, low protein levels in the blood, high cholesterol, and swelling. It is caused by increased permeability of the kidney's filtering membrane, allowing protein but not blood cells to pass into the urine. Nephrotic syndrome has many potential causes including primary kidney diseases or systemic diseases affecting other organs like diabetes or lupus. Complications can include blood clots, infections, anemia, heart disease, high blood pressure, and fluid buildup due to low protein levels in the blood.
Respiration
This document discusses respiratory depression, the effects of alcohol on the respiratory system, blood gas analysis, rib fractures, and pneumothorax. It defines respiratory depression and lists several potential causes. It describes how alcohol can lead to pneumonia, acute respiratory distress syndrome, and other long-term respiratory issues over time. The document explains blood gas analysis and the effects of abnormal pH, PCO2, and HCO3 values. It also discusses rib fractures, pneumothorax, and their potential complications like respiratory failure. Treatment options are provided for rib fractures, pneumothorax, and the management of associated conditions.
Diseases related to circulatory and respiratory system
This document discusses diseases that affect the respiratory and circulatory systems. It describes common respiratory illnesses like the common cold, influenza, pneumonia, tuberculosis, asthma, bronchitis, and emphysema. It also outlines circulatory conditions including atherosclerosis, stroke, coronary heart disease, hypertension, hemophilia, anemia, and leukemia. The document emphasizes that lifestyle factors like smoking can contribute to respiratory diseases, while conditions like atherosclerosis are linked to diet and exercise habits. Maintaining a healthy lifestyle can help prevent and manage issues with the respiratory and circulatory systems.
HAEMATOLOGY INTRODUCTION.pptx
Haematology is the study of blood, blood-forming organs, and blood diseases. Hematologists complete medical school and residency training before specializing in diagnosing and treating disorders like anemia, blood cancers, and bleeding disorders. Some key responsibilities of hematologists include understanding abnormalities in blood formation, diagnosing issues through lab tests, and managing care for patients with blood diseases. Common diseases treated include leukemia, myeloma, sickle cell anemia, and disorders affecting platelets or coagulation like hemophilia.
sepsis
A 73-year-old woman presented with symptoms of weakness, cough, and fever. On examination, she was somnolent with a low-grade fever, rapid heart rate and breathing, low blood pressure, and crackles in her right lung. Based on her symptoms and exam findings meeting two SIRS criteria, the most likely diagnosis is systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS) due to a potential infection such as pneumonia. Sepsis occurs when SIRS is caused by a confirmed or suspected infection and can progress to septic shock, organ dysfunction, and death if not properly treated.
Acute renal failure
Acute renal failure occurs when the kidneys are unable to excrete waste products from the body, causing them to accumulate in the blood. It can be caused by conditions that decrease renal blood flow or damage the kidneys. Patients are classified as oliguric, excreting less than 500mL of urine per day, or nonoliguric, excreting more than 500mL daily. Risk factors include advanced age, diabetes, heart or liver disease. Diagnosis involves urine and blood tests to check kidney function and imaging tests in some cases. Treatment focuses on treating the underlying cause, managing fluid balance and electrolytes, and dialysis in severe cases.
Cirrhosis.pptx
Cirrhosis is a diffuse liver disease characterized by fibrosis and conversion of the liver architecture into abnormal nodules that develops over weeks to years due to chronic liver injury. The most common causes in the US are hepatitis C (26%), alcoholic liver disease (21%), hepatitis C and alcohol combined (15%), and cryptogenic or unknown causes that are often due to nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (18%). Cirrhosis results in around 35,000 deaths per year in the US and complications include portal hypertension, ascites, hepatorenal syndrome, and hepatic encephalopathy.
Renal pathology
This document discusses various renal pathologies and syndromes. It describes how renal diseases can present as azotemia, prerenal azotemia, postrenal azotemia, or uremia. Major renal syndromes include acute nephritic syndrome, nephrotic syndrome, rapidly progressive glomerulonephritis, acute renal failure, and chronic renal failure. Specific glomerular diseases like minimal change disease, focal segmental glomerulosclerosis, and membranous nephropathy are also discussed in terms of their pathogenesis, morphology, and clinical course.
medicine.CRF.(dr.kawa)
Chronic renal failure is an irreversible deterioration in renal function that develops over years. It initially only causes biochemical abnormalities but eventually leads to uraemia and loss of kidney excretory, metabolic and endocrine functions. The most common causes are diabetes, hypertension, and glomerulonephritis. As kidney function declines, patients experience widespread effects including anaemia, acidosis, cardiovascular disease, bone disease, muscle problems, neuropathy, endocrine abnormalities, bleeding issues, and increased susceptibility to infection.

How to Make a Field Mandatory in Odoo 17
In Odoo, making a field required can be done through both Python code and XML views. When you set the required attribute to True in Python code, it makes the field required across all views where it's used. Conversely, when you set the required attribute in XML views, it makes the field required only in the context of that particular view.

Pathological Changes in the Human Body during Autopsy.pptx
- 2. • The Lungs • During an autopsy, the lungs are carefully examined for any pathological changes. Common findings include congestion, inflammation and fluid accumulation in the air sacs. These changes can be caused by a variety of factors, such as infections, heart failure, or exposure to toxic substances.
- 3. • The Liver • During an autopsy, the liver is examined for any signs of disease or damage. Some common pathological changes that may be observed in the liver are • Inflammation • fatty liver disease • Cirrhosis • liver cancer. These changes can be caused by a variety of factors, including viral infections, alcohol abuse, and certain medications. Inflammation of the liver, also known as hepatitis, can be caused by viruses such as hepatitis A, B, and C. Fatty liver disease occurs when there is an accumulation of fat in the liver cells, which can lead to inflammation and scarring. Cirrhosis is a condition in which the liver becomes scarred and unable to function properly. Liver cancer can also develop as a result of chronic liver disease or other factors.
- 4. • The Brain During an autopsy, the brain is carefully examined for any signs of disease or injury. Common pathological changes that may be observed include 1. cerebral edema is the swelling of the brain due to excess fluid accumulation. 2. cerebral infarction which is the death of brain tissue caused by a lack of blood flow. 3. Hemorrhage or bleeding within the brain. In addition to these changes, there are also a variety of diseases and conditions that can affect the brain, such as Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, and multiple sclerosis. These conditions are characterized by specific pathological changes that can be identified during an autopsy. For example, Alzheimer's disease is associated with the accumulation of beta-amyloid plaques and neurofibrillary tangles in the brain, while Parkinson's disease is characterized by the loss of dopamine-producing neurons in the substantia nigra region of the brain.
