LEGAL SPECTS OF GERONTOLOGY NURSING
Widely accepted ethical principles are taken into account in several international declarations and recommendations, but national legislations of care for old people are characterized by wide diversity. Ethical considerations go further than pure clinical assessments and include all consequences of starting and/or withholding of cure and care. The oldest Hippocratic principles—beneficence (doing good) and non-maleficence (not harming)—are obligations of physicians to act in the best interest of the patients. Autonomy, the existence and feeling of freedom of choice and self-governance, has replaced paternalism, and is cherished in Western culture. Sufficient information and capacity of the patient are preconditions for giving informed consent before any treatment is undertaken. In cases of lacking capacity, the healthcare providers must consult family members or other proxy persons to find out what the patient’s wish might have been.

acute posioning of methyl alcohol.pptx
A middle-aged man presented to the hospital with blurry vision and a history of consuming local alcohol two days prior. He was diagnosed with methanol poisoning based on clinical signs including dilated pupils that did not respond to light and metabolic acidosis. Methanol poisoning is caused by the ingestion of methyl alcohol which is metabolized into toxic compounds that can cause visual disturbances, respiratory issues, and a wide anion gap metabolic acidosis. Treatment involves preventing further absorption, correcting acidosis, administering antidotes like fomepizole or ethanol, and potentially hemodialysis for severe cases.

Growth charts
Growth charts are used to monitor a child's growth over time by plotting measurements like height, weight, and head circumference against age. The World Health Organization developed new international growth standards based on data from healthy breastfed children in diverse geographic locations. These WHO growth charts establish breastfeeding as the norm and allow for early identification of growth issues or obesity risk. Growth charts are an important tool for assessing child development, health planning, and identifying children who may need medical intervention or special nutrition programs.
Disorders of growth
Growth disorders include problems that prevent normal development of height, weight, sexual maturity or other features in children. Short stature is defined as a height less than the 3rd percentile or more than 2 standard deviations below the mean for age, sex and population. Common causes of short stature include idiopathic (most common), intrauterine growth restriction, skeletal dysplasias, nutritional deficiencies, and endocrine disorders like growth hormone deficiency. Assessment of a child with short stature involves a detailed history, physical exam, bone age assessment, growth velocity, laboratory tests and sometimes specialized tests or imaging to identify the underlying cause. Management depends on the specific cause but may include dietary interventions, growth hormone therapy, surgery or other
Growth and anthropometry
Growth is monitored through regular anthropometric measurements and plotting on growth charts. Factors affecting growth include genetics, nutrition, infections and socioeconomic status.

Pharmacology of 5-hydroxytryptamine and Antagonist
5-hydroxytryptamine or 5-HT or Serotonin is a neurotransmitter that serves a range of roles in the human body. It is sometimes referred to as the happy chemical since it promotes overall well-being and happiness.
It is mostly found in the brain, intestines, and blood platelets.
5-HT is utilised to transport messages between nerve cells, is known to be involved in smooth muscle contraction, and adds to overall well-being and pleasure, among other benefits. 5-HT regulates the body's sleep-wake cycles and internal clock by acting as a precursor to melatonin.
It is hypothesised to regulate hunger, emotions, motor, cognitive, and autonomic processes.

chemistry investigatory project
The development of nanogold-based cancer therapy could revolutionize oncology by providing a more targeted, less invasive treatment option. This project contributes to the growing body of research aimed at harnessing nanotechnology for medical applications, paving the way for future clinical trials and potential commercial applications.
Cancer remains one of the leading causes of death worldwide, prompting the need for innovative treatment methods. Nanotechnology offers promising new approaches, including the use of gold nanoparticles (nanogold) for targeted cancer therapy. Nanogold particles possess unique physical and chemical properties that make them suitable for drug delivery, imaging, and photothermal therapy.

GASTROINTESTINAL INFECTIONS AND GASTRITIS
Osvaldo Bernardo Muchanga
Gastrointestinal Infections
GASTROINTESTINAL INFECTIONS result from the ingestion of pathogens that cause infections at the level of this tract, generally being transmitted by food, water and hands contaminated by microorganisms such as E. coli, Salmonella, Shigella, Vibrio cholerae, Campylobacter, Staphylococcus, Rotavirus among others that are generally contained in feces, thus configuring a FECAL-ORAL type of transmission.
Among the factors that lead to the occurrence of gastrointestinal infections are the hygienic and sanitary deficiencies that characterize our markets and other places where raw or cooked food is sold, poor environmental sanitation in communities, deficiencies in water treatment (or in the process of its plumbing), risky hygienic-sanitary habits (not washing hands after major and/or minor needs), among others.
These are generally consequences (signs and symptoms) resulting from gastrointestinal infections: diarrhea, vomiting, fever and malaise, among others.
The treatment consists of replacing lost liquids and electrolytes (drinking drinking water and other recommended liquids, including consumption of juicy fruits such as papayas, apples, pears, among others that contain water in their composition).
To prevent this, it is necessary to promote health education, improve the hygienic-sanitary conditions of markets and communities in general as a way of promoting, preserving and prolonging PUBLIC HEALTH.
Gastritis and Gastric Health
Gastric Health is one of the most relevant concerns in human health, with gastrointestinal infections being among the main illnesses that affect humans.
Among gastric problems, we have GASTRITIS AND GASTRIC ULCERS as the main public health problems. Gastritis and gastric ulcers normally result from inflammation and corrosion of the walls of the stomach (gastric mucosa) and are generally associated (caused) by the bacterium Helicobacter pylor, which, according to the literature, this bacterium settles on these walls (of the stomach) and starts to release urease that ends up altering the normal pH of the stomach (acid), which leads to inflammation and corrosion of the mucous membranes and consequent gastritis or ulcers, respectively.
In addition to bacterial infections, gastritis and gastric ulcers are associated with several factors, with emphasis on prolonged fasting, chemical substances including drugs, alcohol, foods with strong seasonings including chilli, which ends up causing inflammation of the stomach walls and/or corrosion. of the same, resulting in the appearance of wounds and consequent gastritis or ulcers, respectively.
Among patients with gastritis and/or ulcers, one of the dilemmas is associated with the foods to consume in order to minimize the sensation of pain and discomfort. Recently uploaded (20)
