This document provides information on nonopioid analgesics, including their mechanisms of action, uses, and side effects. It focuses on aspirin and diflunisal as examples of salicylate analgesics. Some key points:
- Nonopioid analgesics relieve pain through inhibiting prostaglandin synthesis, which occurs during tissue inflammation. This produces analgesic, antipyretic, and anti-inflammatory effects.
- Aspirin is the most widely used nonopioid analgesic. It inhibits the enzyme cyclooxygenase, blocking prostaglandin production. This provides fever reduction and pain relief.
- Common adverse effects of aspirin include gastrointestinal irritation and bleeding. Overdose can lead to tinnitus, nausea
Homeostasis is vital for maintaining the healthy functioning of the body. If homeostasis did not occur, it could lead to illness or even death. The body has various mechanisms in place to try and cope and restore homeostasis if it is disrupted.

This document discusses pharmacotherapy for obesity, including historical and contemporary anti-obesity drugs. It begins by outlining homeostatic mechanisms that control energy balance in the body. It then defines obesity and discusses measurement of obesity. The document reviews lifestyle modification as the first-line treatment for obesity but notes adjunctive therapies are often needed for sustained weight loss. It provides details on the history of anti-obesity drugs from the 1920s to present, including mechanisms of action and side effects. Contemporary FDA-approved anti-obesity drugs that modify fat absorption, decrease food intake, or increase energy expenditure are also summarized.
Nonopioid analgesics such as aspirin work by inhibiting the synthesis of prostaglandins, reducing pain, fever, and inflammation. They are safer than opioids with fewer side effects and no risk of addiction. While effective, they do not affect all pain mediators. Common nonopioid analgesics include salicylates like aspirin, which work by blocking the enzyme cyclooxygenase and come from willow bark extracts. Aspirin is the most widely used drug and has analgesic, antipyretic, and anti-inflammatory effects but can also cause gastrointestinal issues with long-term use.
This document discusses an orthomolecular approach to decreasing inflammation through lifestyle and dietary changes as well as supplements. It covers how chronic inflammation can negatively impact brain health and mental health conditions like anxiety and depression. Key recommendations include a low-carb diet, exercise, stress reduction, probiotics, fish oil, and antioxidants like alpha lipoic acid and N-acetyl cysteine to reduce inflammation and repair damage in the brain.

ENDOCRINE PHYSIOLOGY LECTURE FOR 300L MBBS-BSc 2019-2020-1.pptOlaniyiEmmanuel5
This document provides an overview of a lecture on endocrine physiology. It begins with an introduction to the endocrine system and hormones. It then covers the classification, properties, and mechanisms of action of hormones. The document outlines the major endocrine glands and hormones, including the pituitary gland and hormones of the anterior and posterior pituitary. It discusses disorders of growth hormone and thyroid hormones, including dwarfism, gigantism, acromegaly, cretinism, and myxedema. It concludes with an overview of hyperthyroidism.
1. The document provides tips for using a PowerPoint presentation on metabolic response to trauma. It suggests freely editing the presentation, asking students questions about blank slides, and repeating the process for active learning.
2. The metabolic response to trauma involves physiological neuroendocrine reflexes that restore homeostasis. Trauma stimulates sensors which activate the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis and sympathetic nervous system. This increases stress hormones like cortisol and catecholamines.
3. The metabolic effects include hypermetabolism, hyperglycemia, increased protein breakdown and gluconeogenesis from protein. This supports the body during injury but causes negative nitrogen balance.
Aspirin powder is a simple powder that contains only one ingredient, aspirin. It can be used orally or topically. Aspirin powder works by irreversibly inhibiting the enzyme COX, which decreases the production of prostaglandins and results in analgesic, antipyretic, and anti-inflammatory effects. It is commonly prescribed at low doses for its antiplatelet effects in conditions like heart attacks, strokes, and hypertension. Adverse effects include GI upset and bleeding. It is contraindicated in cases of hypersensitivity, bleeding disorders, and liver or kidney impairment.

Slides from my presentation in the Biohacker Meetup in Amsterdam (02-04-2023). What are the vast health benefits of heat alteration, autophagy & calorie restriction and how to incorporate these intelligently into everyday life.
- Benign pituitary tumors are usually treated with hypophysectomy or radiation therapy. Preoperative care focuses on education and baseline assessments. Postoperative care involves neurological monitoring, checking for CSF leakage, restricting activities that increase intracranial pressure, and hormone replacement therapy. Nursing management aims to prevent complications and includes ongoing assessments, medication administration, skin care, and patient education.
This document discusses the physiological functions of thyroid hormones. It describes how thyroid hormones increase transcription of genes, cellular metabolic activity, and growth. It also covers the metabolic and non-metabolic effects of thyroid hormones on specific body systems and functions like the central nervous system, bone growth, muscle function, cardiovascular system, sleep, and the reproductive system.
An overview of the most commonly encountered emergencies in endurance athletes. The Baker to Vegas Law Enforcement Relay Race is the Largest of its kind in the world. This Year over 7000 runners will be competing in the 120 mile race.
This document contains a table of contents for a pharmacology associate nursing program covering several units: medications for pain, fever, seizures and inflammation (Unit 1); drugs acting on the gastrointestinal tract (Unit 2); and medications used for non-communicable diseases (Unit 3). Unit 1 provides overviews of the pathophysiology of fever and pain and discusses medications used for fever like acetaminophen, and medications for pain management including the WHO pain management ladder.
The document provides information about pharmacology, the nursing process related to medication administration, dosage calculations, and various drug classifications. It discusses key topics such as pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, the nursing process steps of assessment, planning, implementation and evaluation. It also covers dosage calculation methods, conversions, the six rights of medication administration, and prototypes, mechanisms of action, indications and considerations for different drug classes affecting the central nervous system, cardiovascular system, and mental functioning.
The document discusses various adrenocortical disorders including Cushing's syndrome, which results from prolonged exposure to high levels of glucocorticoids and can cause obesity, high blood sugar, and easy bruising; Addison's disease, which is caused by insufficient production of cortisol and aldosterone from the adrenal glands and may lead to low blood pressure and muscle cramps; and diabetes mellitus, a metabolic disorder characterized by high blood sugar due to insufficient insulin production or resistance.
Thyroid and Adrenal Gland Function Determine many aspects of health, wellness and overall energy. If there is a miscommunication between these and other glands, it can lead to interferences in health, such as weight gain, infertility, digestive disorders and mood disorders. The Natural Nurse, Ellen Kamhi, PhD RN explains the basic function and feedback mechanisms involved in gland communication, along with Natural Remedy Support.

Migraine is a common neurological disorder characterized by severe headaches. Common triggers include diet, hormones, environment, and stress. Migraine attacks involve a headache phase with throbbing pain that worsens with activity along with symptoms like nausea and sensitivity to light/sound. Some people experience an aura phase before the headache with visual or sensory disturbances.
Treatment involves managing triggers, acute treatments like triptans to stop headaches, and preventive medications for those with frequent attacks. Preventive options include beta blockers, anti-seizure medications, and antidepressants, with the goal of reducing attack frequency and severity. Proper acute and preventive treatment along with lifestyle modifications can help manage migraine.
Psycho dynamics & patho physiology of diseasesJyoti Kathwal
The document discusses stress and the body's physical response to stress. It describes the three stages of the general adaptation syndrome (GAS) according to Hans Selye: alarm reaction, resistance, and exhaustion. It also discusses the autonomic nervous system and its role in the fight or flight response to stress. Finally, it provides an overview of stressors and their classification as internal or external, acute, chronic intermittent, or chronic enduring.
Analgesic and antipyretic drugs relieve pain and reduce fever. Analgesics like opioids act centrally in the central nervous system, while antipyretics like NSAIDs act peripherally. Opioids bind to mu, kappa, and delta receptors and open potassium channels and close calcium channels to reduce pain transmission. NSAIDs inhibit the COX enzymes to reduce fever by preventing prostaglandin increases in the hypothalamus. Both drug classes can cause side effects like nausea, constipation, and gastric irritation with long term use. Proper management of analgesic abuse and dependence includes harm reduction, detoxification, and maintenance or abstinence-oriented therapies.
Thyroid hormones increase the transcription of genes which leads to increased production of proteins and other cellular components. They also have rapid nongenomic effects through secondary messengers. Thyroid hormones increase metabolic activity in cells and tissues, stimulating processes like mitochondrial activity, basal metabolic rate, growth, and development of organs like the brain. They influence many body systems and functions such as the cardiovascular, muscular, nervous, and reproductive systems.
The document provides information about Athma Life Academy and Newday Wellness, which are wellness organizations located in Kochi, India. Athma Life Academy offers consultancy, research, training and operational services for health and wellness projects worldwide according to international standards. The document then discusses anatomy and physiology, defining them as the study of structure/relationships and functions of the body respectively. It provides overviews of the major organ systems in the body - their components and functions. The last sections discuss characteristics of life, requirements of organisms, homeostasis and control of homeostasis. The organization has an international team of specialists and directors to support employee wellness programs.
Skin conditions can come due to infections or toxic reactions. This has 2 issues. One is the skin issue and another is the cosmetic aspect. Reasons could be microbial infection, food poisoning or exposure to other toxic substances. The biggest, most prevalent challenge is psoriasis and its reasons have not been identified. There are certain studies which prove that industrialization and over exposure to chemicals cause psoriasis. People working in industrial areas are prone to most chronic skin conditions. But one thing is for sure, improper lifestyle and stress aggravates it.
Mercurius is named after the roman god mercurius, the god of trade and science. The planet mercurius is named after the same god. Mercurius is sometimes called hydrargyrum, means ‘watery silver’. Its shine and colour are very similar to silver, but mercury is a fluid at room temperatures. The name quick silver is a translation of hydrargyrum, where the word quick describes its tendency to scatter away in all directions.
The droplets have a tendency to conglomerate to one big mass, but on being shaken they fall apart into countless little droplets again. It is used to ignite explosives, like mercury fulminate, the explosive character is one of its general themes.

8 Surprising Reasons To Meditate 40 Minutes A Day That Can Change Your Life.pptxHolistified Wellness
We’re talking about Vedic Meditation, a form of meditation that has been around for at least 5,000 years. Back then, the people who lived in the Indus Valley, now known as India and Pakistan, practised meditation as a fundamental part of daily life. This knowledge that has given us yoga and Ayurveda, was known as Veda, hence the name Vedic. And though there are some written records, the practice has been passed down verbally from generation to generation.

10. COMPONENTS
COMPONENTS
1. Stimulus - Changes in the temperature of our external environment can cause core
body temperature to rise or fall
2. Receptors - Nerve endings in the skin and brain (hypothalamus) sense the external
and internal body temperature respectively.
3. Control Centre - The hypothalamus (part of our brain) processes signals from the
thermoreceptors and signals various effectors that are used to restore the core
temperature to its set point (approximately 37°C).
4. Effectors - The following components are used to adjust our core temperature,
compensating for the external environment and restoring our core temperature to
its set point.
•Skeletal Muscles
•Smooth Muscle Surrounding Blood Vessels
•Thyroid Hormones
•Adrenaline
•Piloerector Muscles

11. Effects Of Swedan On Human Body
• Intense short-term heat exposure elevates skin
temperature and core body temperature and
activates thermoregulatory pathways via the
hypothalamus and CNS (central nervous system)
leading to activation of the autonomic nervous
system. The activation of the sympathetic nervous
system, hypothalamus-pituitary-adrenal hormonal
axis, and the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system
leads to well-documented cardiovascular effects
with increased heart rate, skin blood flow, cardiac
output, and sweating

13. At cellular level
• On a cellular level, acute whole-body
thermotherapy (both wet and dry forms)
induces discrete metabolic changes that
include production of heat shock proteins,
reduction of reactive oxygenated species,
reduced oxidative stress and inflammation
pathway activities, increased NO (nitric oxide)
bioavailability, increased insulin sensitivity,
and alterations in various endothelial-
dependent vasodilatation metabolic pathways

14. Heat shock proteins
• Heat shock proteins (HSP) are a family of proteins that
are produced by cells in response to exposure to
stressful conditions. They were first described in
relation to heat shock, but are now known to also be
expressed during other stresses including exposure to
cold, UV light and during wound healing or tissue
remodeling. Many members of this group
perform chaperone functions by stabilizing new
proteins to ensure correct folding or by helping to
refold proteins that were damaged by the cell
stress. This increase in expression is transcriptionally
regulated. The dramatic up regulation of the heat
shock proteins is a key part of the heat shock
response and is induced primarily by heat shock
factor(HSF)

16. chaperones
• Several heat shock proteins function as intra-
cellular chaperones for other proteins. They
play an important role in protein–protein
interactions such as folding and assisting in
the establishment of proper
protein conformation (shape) and prevention
of unwanted protein aggregation. By helping
to stabilize partially unfolded proteins, HSPs
aid in transporting proteins across membranes
within the cell
