1. Sexually transmitted diseases (STDs) are caused by bacteria, viruses, parasites or fungi transmitted through sexual contact. Common STDs include chlamydia, gonorrhea, HIV/AIDS, herpes and syphilis.
2. India has a major problem with STDs, with millions of new infections acquired each year. High-risk groups include sex workers, their clients like truck drivers, and individuals with multiple partners or broken homes.
3. Syndromic management is used to clinically diagnose and treat STDs based on symptoms rather than definitive diagnostic testing. It is effective against mixed infections but can promote antibiotic resistance.
STD is an abbreviated form of Sexually transmitted diseases. The meaning of STD disease is that the disease is imparted to others through sexual contact. Apart from sexual transmission, sexually transmitted diseases are also transferred to other persons in various ways. These are- breastfeeding, sharing of infected needles, etc. There are many diseases under the class of STD, and these can be cured by maintaining proper sexual health and hygiene. The mass awareness of sexually transmitted diseases is necessary for preventing them. Social media, newspapers and journals, television broadcasting, internet sources, and medical campaigning are the ways through which the transmission, symptoms, prevention, and prospective cure of STDs are conveyed to the common people. Examples of sexually transmitted diseases are- AIDS, gonorrhea, syphilis, etc.

NCDs, also known as chronic diseases, tend to be of long duration and are the result of a combination of genetic, physiological, environmental and behaviours factors.
The main types of NCDs are cardiovascular diseases (like heart attacks and stroke), cancers, chronic respiratory diseases (such as chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and asthma) and diabetes

Hearing the word “tumor” may naturally cause fear or panic. But a tumor is simply an abnormal buildup of tissue that occurs when cells divide too quickly or don’t die off as they normally should. A lung tumor is a tumor that occurs in the lung tissue itself or in the airways that lead to the lungs. Your airways include your:
Nose.
The inside of your nose (nasal cavity).
Throat (pharynx).
Voice box (larynx).
Windpipe (trachea).
The large tubes that carry air from your windpipe to your lungs (bronchi).
Lungs.
Lung tumors can either be cancerous (malignant) or noncancerous (benign).
If a healthcare provider tells you that you have a lung tumor and it “looks like it’s benign,” what does that mean? Should you have concerns?
When compared to malignant tumors, benign lung tumors:
Aren’t cancerous, so they won’t spread to other parts of your body.
Grow slowly or might even stop growing or shrink.
Aren’t usually life-threatening.
Usually don’t require removal.
Can expand and push against nearby tissues but won’t invade, destroy or replace other tissues.
Recomendações da OMS sobre cuidados maternos e neonatais para uma experiência pós-natal positiva.
Em consonância com os ODS – Objetivos do Desenvolvimento Sustentável e a Estratégia Global para a Saúde das Mulheres, Crianças e Adolescentes, e aplicando uma abordagem baseada nos direitos humanos, os esforços de cuidados pós-natais devem expandir-se para além da cobertura e da simples sobrevivência, de modo a incluir cuidados de qualidade.
Estas diretrizes visam melhorar a qualidade dos cuidados pós-natais essenciais e de rotina prestados às mulheres e aos recém-nascidos, com o objetivo final de melhorar a saúde e o bem-estar materno e neonatal.
Uma “experiência pós-natal positiva” é um resultado importante para todas as mulheres que dão à luz e para os seus recém-nascidos, estabelecendo as bases para a melhoria da saúde e do bem-estar a curto e longo prazo. Uma experiência pós-natal positiva é definida como aquela em que as mulheres, pessoas que gestam, os recém-nascidos, os casais, os pais, os cuidadores e as famílias recebem informação consistente, garantia e apoio de profissionais de saúde motivados; e onde um sistema de saúde flexível e com recursos reconheça as necessidades das mulheres e dos bebês e respeite o seu contexto cultural.
Estas diretrizes consolidadas apresentam algumas recomendações novas e já bem fundamentadas sobre cuidados pós-natais de rotina para mulheres e neonatos que recebem cuidados no pós-parto em unidades de saúde ou na comunidade, independentemente dos recursos disponíveis.
É fornecido um conjunto abrangente de recomendações para cuidados durante o período puerperal, com ênfase nos cuidados essenciais que todas as mulheres e recém-nascidos devem receber, e com a devida atenção à qualidade dos cuidados; isto é, a entrega e a experiência do cuidado recebido. Estas diretrizes atualizam e ampliam as recomendações da OMS de 2014 sobre cuidados pós-natais da mãe e do recém-nascido e complementam as atuais diretrizes da OMS sobre a gestão de complicações pós-natais.
O estabelecimento da amamentação e o manejo das principais intercorrências é contemplada.
Recomendamos muito.
Vamos discutir essas recomendações no nosso curso de pós-graduação em Aleitamento no Instituto Ciclos.

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.

2. Introduction
• Group of communicable diseases that are transmitted predominantly by sexual
contact and caused by wide range of bacterial, viral ,protozoal and fungal agents
and ectoparasites.
• In the last few decades , STDs have undergone a dramatic transformation.
a) Venereal disease to STDs.
b) List of pathogen extended from 5 to more than 20.
c) Not only symptoms are important but also the clinical syndrome associated with
this diseases.
3. Problem statement
• True incidence-not known because of inadequate reporting due to
secrecy that surrounds them.
• More that 1 million STIs are acquired every day.
• Each year, there are estimated 357 million new infections with 1 of 4
STIs.
• STIs have serious consequences beyond the immediate impact of the
infection itself like mother to child transmission of STIs can result in
still birth neonatal death, LBW , PID and infertility among females.
4. India
• Major public health problem in India
• During the serological survey of syphilis, about 19,808 cases reported in the year
2017.
• Gonorrhoea more widely than syphilis and about 59,266 cases reported in the year
2017.
• LGV and Donovanosis more common in southern states of Tamil Nadu , Andhra
Pradesh, Karnataka
5. Epidemiological determinants
• Agent factors
Pathogen Diseases or syndrome
Neisseria Gonorrhoea Gonorrhea,urethritis,cervicitis,epididymitis,salpingitis,
PID,neonatal conjunctivitis
Treponema pallidum Syphilis
Hemophilus Ducreyi Chancroid
Chlamydia Trachomatis LGV, urethritis, cervicitis,
proctitis,epididymitis,infant pneumonia
Calymmatobacterium granulomatis Donovanosis (Granuloma inguale)
Herpes simplex virus Genital Herpes
Hepatitis B virus Acute and chronic hepatitis
Human Papilloma Virus Genital and anal wart
Human Immunodeficiency Virus AIDS
Molluscum Contagiosum Genital Molluscum Contagiosum
Candida Albicans Vaginitis
Trichomonas Vaginalis Vaginitis
6. Host factors
1. Age : more common in 20-24 years followed by 25-29 . Most common
morbidity is observed during foetal development and in the neonate.
2. Sex- higher in Men than women but severity is more in women.
3. Marital status: frequency is higher among single,divorced and separated persons
than among married.
4. Socio economic status: from low socio economic groups have highest morbidity
rate
7. Demographic factors:
1. Population explosion
2. Marked increase in the number of young people’
3. Rural to urban migration.
4. Increasing educational opportunities for women delaying their marriage
8. 1.Prostitution : major factor in the spread of STDs. Act as reservoir of infection
2. Broken Homes : Promiscus women are usually drawn from broken homes .homes which are usually broken
either due to death of one or both parents or their separation. The atmosphere in such homes is unhappy and
children reared in such an atmosphere are likely to go stray in search of other avenues of Happiness.
3. Sexual disharmony : married people with strained relations, divorced and separated persons are often
victims.
4. Easy Money : Prostitution is reflection of poverty. Occupation for earning easy money.
5. Urbanization and industrialization : long working hours, relative isolation from family.
6.Social disruptions: caused by disasters,wars,civil unrest.
7. Changing behavioural patterns.
8. Social stigma. 9.Alcohol
Social factors
9. Vulnerable groups for STI – High Risk groups
• In certain group of individual the incidence and Prevalence of the STIs are
generally more than a normal population, they are called as “Core Groups”.
• Includes :-
Commercial Sex workers (CSW)
Injecting Drug Users and their partners
Prisoners
Street Children
Group of individuals who are client to CSWs like long distance truck drivers,
tourists/travellers
10. Clinical Spectrum
• STD’s of Concern
•
Actually, all of them
• “Sores” (ulcers)
• Syphilis
• Genital herpes (HSV-2, HSV-1)
• Others uncommon in the U.S.
• Lymphogranuloma venereum
• Chancroid
• Granuloma inguinale
• “Drips” (discharges)
• Gonorrhoea
• Chlamydia
• Nongonococcal urethritis / mucopurulent cervicitis
• Trichomonas vaginitis / urethritis
• Candidiasis (vulvovaginal, less problems in men)
Other major concerns
Genital HPV (especially type
16, 18)
Cervical Cancer
12. Prevention and Control
• Main components of STI control :
1. Elimination of reservoirs
2. Breaking the chain of Transmission.
3. Protection of the susceptible.
4. Other measures
13. 1. Elimination of reservoir
• Main emphasis: detection and control of infection in core group members.
1. Case detection :early detection is backbone.
2. Screening :
• STI show ice berg phenomena: selective screening for core group population and
opportunistic screening for at risk.
• Screening for antenatal mothers and blood donors also.
3. Contact tracing :
• Tracing the sexual partners by rapid means before incubation period.
• After identification, counselling to be done for- STI clinic visit, examination and
treatment.
14. 4. Cluster testing :
• Testing of those who reside in the same socio sexual environment of any diagnosed STI
cases.
• Most effective way of identification of CSWs, Homosexuals-if confidentiality is
maintained.
5. Case holding and Treatment :
Administration of Full course of treatment to all the contacts or to recently exposed people
before getting investigations results referred as “ Epidemiological Treatment or Contact
Treatment
Follow up is mandatory
Incomplete treatment and drop out result in anti microbial
resistance
After identification of case , by screening procedure
Provide complete treatment with confidentiality
15. 2. Breaking the chain of Transmission
• Abstinence – absolute and impractical method
• Safe sex practice with barrier method.
3. Protection of the susceptible
Safe sex to be practice in the community.
• Faithful to one sexual partner
• Using barrier method- correct & consistent use
16. 4. Other measures :
1. Health education : changes behaviour to minimize the disease acquisition & spread.
2. Vaccination : Only Hep B vaccine available for Control
3. STI clinics / Suraksha Clinic :
• Delivers sexual & reproductive health services
• NACO –through its network establishes STI/RTI clinics (at Govt Facility at district level
and above) , provides free standardized STI/RTI services.
• Treatment is as per syndromic management approach.
• RPR kits to diagnose syphilis and follow color coded treatment protocol.
• Free counselling services to patient and their partners by trained counsellors.
17. Treponema pallidum – The Agent of Syphilis
• Spirochete
• Obligate human parasite
• Transmission:-Sexual,Trans-placental,Percutaneous following contact with infectious
lesions, Blood Transfusion
• Incubation Period – 21 days (median)
• 3 clinical stages of syphilis
– Primary:
•Painless sore (chancre) at inoculation site
– Secondary:
• Rash, Fever, Lymphadenopathy, Malaise
– Tertiary/Latent:
• CNS invasion, organ damage
18. Primary Syphilis – Clinical Manifestations
• Incubation: 10-90 days (average 3 weeks)
• Chancre
– Early: macule/papule erodes
– Late: clean based, painless, indurated ulcer with smooth firm borders
• Unnoticed in 15-30% of patients
• Resolves in 1-5 weeks
• HIGHLY INFECTIOUS
• Primary Syphilis Chancre
• Represents haematogenous dissemination of spirochetes
• Usually 2-8 weeks after chancre appears
• Findings:
• rash - whole body (includes palms/soles)
• mucous patches
• Condylomata lata - HIGHLY INFECTIOUS
• constitutional symptoms
• Sn/Sx resolve in 2-10 weeks
19. Congenital Syphilis
• Congenital syphilis usually
occurs following vertical
transmission of T. pallidum
from the infected mother to
the fetus in utero, but neonates
may also be infected during
passage through the infected
birth canal at delivery.
20. DIAGNOSIS OF SYPHILIS
1. History and clinical examination.
2. Dark-field microscopy: special technique use to demonstrate the spirochete as
shiny motile spiral structures with a dark background.
• The specimen includes oozing from the lesion or sometimes L.N. aspirate. It is
usually positive in the primary and secondary stages and it is most useful in the
primary stage when the serological tests are still negative.
• Laboratory Testing
• Direct examination of clinical specimen by dark-field microscopy or fluorescent
antibody testing of sample.
• Non-specific or non-treponemal serological test to detect reagin, utilized as
screening test only.
• Specific Treponemal antibody tests are used as a confirmatory test for a positive
reagin test.
21.
22. Genital herpes simplex
Manifestations
•Direct contact – may be with
asymptomatic shedding
•Primary infection commonly
asymptomatic; symptomatic cases
sometimes severe, prolonged, systemic
• manifestations
• Vesicles painful ulcerations crusting
• Diagnosis:
• – Culture
• – Serology (Western blot)
• – PCR
Epidemiology of Genital Herpes :
• One of the 3 most common STDs.
• HSV-2: 80-90%, HSV-1: 10-20%.
• Most cases subclinical.
• Transmission primarily from subclinical
Infection.
• Complications: neonatal transmission, enhanced HIV
27. Chlamydia
• Chlamydia is an infection of the penis, vagina, throat, or tube that carries urine.
• Chlamydia is caused by bacteria (a kind of germ).
• You get it by having sex with someone who has Chlamydia.
• Chlamydia can be spread by the vagina, penis, mouth, or anus.
• Responsible for causing cervicitis, urethritis, Proctitis, lymphogranuloma
venereum, and pelvic inflammatory disease
• Potential to transmit to newborn during delivery causes Conjunctivitis, pneumonia
29. Pelvic Inflammatory Disease (PID)
• l0%-20% women PID
• CDC minimal criteria
• – uterine adnexal tenderness, cervical motion tenderness
• Other symptoms include
– endocervical discharge, fever, lower abd. pain
• Complications:
– Infertility: 15%-24% with 1 episode PID secondary to GC or chlamydia
30. Chancroid
• painful genital ulcer and tender Suppurative inguinal adenopathy suggests
Chancroid
• Purposes, can be made if all of the following criteria are met:
1. The patient has one or more painful genital ulcers;
2. The patient has no evidence of T. pallidum infection by dark field examination of
ulcer exudate or by a serologic test for syphilis performed at least 7 days after onset
of ulcers;
31. Granuloma Inguinale (Donovanosis)
• Granuloma inguinale is a genital ulcerative disease caused by the intracellular
gram-negative bacterium Klebsiella granulomatis (formerly known as
Calymmatobacterium granulomatis).
• Clinically, the disease is commonly characterized as painless, slowly progressive
ulcerative lesions on the genitals or perineum without regional lymphadenopathy;
subcutaneous granulomas (pseudoboboes)
• The lesions are highly vascular (i.e., beefy red appearance) and bleed easily on
contact.
32. Lymph Granuloma Venereum
• Lymph granuloma venereum (LGV) is caused by C. trachomatis serovars L1, L2,
or L3 .
• Most common clinical manifestation of LGV among heterosexuals is tender
inguinal and/or femoral lymphadenopathy that is typically unilateral.
33. Trichomoniasis
Occurs in vagina of women so may be sexually transmitted to men using infected wash cloths and
towels.
• It is transmitted to the baby during delivery.
• It also can occur in the urethra (carries urine to penis) in men, doesn’t have symptoms usually.
SYMPTOMS:
• Appear within 5 to 28 days of exposure
• Women usually have a vaginal discharge that
FEMALE SYMPTOMS:
• Itching and burning at the outside of the opening of the vagina and vulva.
• Painful and frequent urination
• Heavy, unpleasant smelling greenish, yellow discharge
MALE SYMPTOMS:
• Usually nothing, or discomfort in urethra, inflamed head of the penis.
34. Syndromic Management of STIs
ADVANTAGES
• No need for a specialist
• Simple, Inexpensive
• No need for a specific
investigation
• Effective against mixed infection
• Instant management
• Free from errors of clinical
judgement
DISADVANTAGES
• Not a scientific procedure.
• Drug wastage
• Statistical reports on specific STDs
cannot be produced.
• Promotes antibiotic resistance.
