Nervous system
The nervous system is composed of neurons and glial cells that communicate information throughout the body to cause reactions. Neurons are electrically excitable cells that process and transmit information. They consist of a soma, dendrites, axon, and axon terminals. There are different types of neurons. The brain and spinal cord make up the central nervous system, which controls mental processes and physical actions. The brain is divided into lobes and structures like the limbic system that support functions like emotion and memory. The autonomic nervous system regulates involuntary functions through the sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous systems.
Git case of the week4212.
A 43-year-old Arabic woman presented with dyspepsia, vomiting, and weight loss for one month. On examination, she had evident weight loss but no other abnormalities. She was diagnosed with pancreatic head cancer and sent to surgery for bypass surgery and a histological diagnosis. This case demonstrates that dyspepsia with alarm features like weight loss and anemia in those over 45 should prompt consideration of pancreatobiliary causes and appropriate imaging if upper GI pathology is not found.

FIRST AID (BASICS & CPR)-Maj Dr ID Khan
First, learning first aid is important so that one can help save lives in emergency situations. First aid involves providing initial assistance to someone injured until they can receive medical care from a doctor. It aims to preserve life, prevent conditions from worsening, and promote recovery. The key steps of first aid are to quickly assess the situation, ensure your own safety, call for help if needed, give prompt treatment, and help arrange evacuation for medical care. Proper techniques include checking breathing, pulse, temperature and other vital signs, providing CPR if needed, controlling severe bleeding, and caring for the injured person until they can receive further treatment.

Nervous system problems
The nervous system can be affected by injuries, degenerative diseases, and drugs which can impact how it functions. Head injuries and injuries to the spinal cord pose the greatest risks, potentially causing illnesses like amnesia. Degenerative diseases like Alzheimer's result from neuron decline and cause memory loss, disorientation, and inability to perform basic tasks. While some drugs are legal, like alcohol and tobacco, all drugs alter the nervous system and are dangerous to health. Protecting the nervous system involves getting sufficient sleep, avoiding drugs and injuries, and taking safety precautions.

Central Nervous System.ppt
The nervous system consists of neurons and neuroglial cells. Neurons transmit nerve impulses through electrical and chemical signals. The neuron has a cell body, dendrites which receive signals, and an axon which transmits signals. Schwann cells wrap around axons and form myelin sheaths to insulate axons. Myelin allows faster impulse transmission. The nervous system regulates sensation, movement, and organ function through sensory, motor and interneurons. Nerve impulses rely on ion exchange and travel through the nervous system via pathways and reflex arcs.

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.

Breast cancer: Post menopausal endocrine therapy
Breast cancer in postmenopausal women with hormone receptor-positive (HR+) status is a common and complex condition that necessitates a multifaceted approach to management. HR+ breast cancer means that the cancer cells grow in response to hormones such as estrogen and progesterone. This subtype is prevalent among postmenopausal women and typically exhibits a more indolent course compared to other forms of breast cancer, which allows for a variety of treatment options.
Diagnosis and Staging
The diagnosis of HR+ breast cancer begins with clinical evaluation, imaging, and biopsy. Imaging modalities such as mammography, ultrasound, and MRI help in assessing the extent of the disease. Histopathological examination and immunohistochemical staining of the biopsy sample confirm the diagnosis and hormone receptor status by identifying the presence of estrogen receptors (ER) and progesterone receptors (PR) on the tumor cells.
Staging involves determining the size of the tumor (T), the involvement of regional lymph nodes (N), and the presence of distant metastasis (M). The American Joint Committee on Cancer (AJCC) staging system is commonly used. Accurate staging is critical as it guides treatment decisions.
Treatment Options
Endocrine Therapy
Endocrine therapy is the cornerstone of treatment for HR+ breast cancer in postmenopausal women. The primary goal is to reduce the levels of estrogen or block its effects on cancer cells. Commonly used agents include:
Selective Estrogen Receptor Modulators (SERMs): Tamoxifen is a SERM that binds to estrogen receptors, blocking estrogen from stimulating breast cancer cells. It is effective but may have side effects such as increased risk of endometrial cancer and thromboembolic events.
Aromatase Inhibitors (AIs): These drugs, including anastrozole, letrozole, and exemestane, lower estrogen levels by inhibiting the aromatase enzyme, which converts androgens to estrogen in peripheral tissues. AIs are generally preferred in postmenopausal women due to their efficacy and safety profile compared to tamoxifen.
Selective Estrogen Receptor Downregulators (SERDs): Fulvestrant is a SERD that degrades estrogen receptors and is used in cases where resistance to other endocrine therapies develops.
Combination Therapies
Combining endocrine therapy with other treatments enhances efficacy. Examples include:
Endocrine Therapy with CDK4/6 Inhibitors: Palbociclib, ribociclib, and abemaciclib are CDK4/6 inhibitors that, when combined with endocrine therapy, significantly improve progression-free survival in advanced HR+ breast cancer.
Endocrine Therapy with mTOR Inhibitors: Everolimus, an mTOR inhibitor, can be added to endocrine therapy for patients who have developed resistance to aromatase inhibitors.
Chemotherapy
