Anaemia
More than one-quarter of the world's population is anemic, with approximately half of cases caused by iron deficiency anemia, which predominantly affects preschool children and women. Anemia of chronic inflammation is the most common cause of anemia in heart failure patients, accounting for 58% of cases. This type of anemia commonly occurs in long-term illnesses or infections like rheumatoid arthritis, lupus, diabetes, heart failure, and inflammatory bowel disease. A Swedish company called MediTec Group AB and its FerroCare division are committed to helping people with iron deficiency and issues with supplements through their OptiFer iron products.

Unhealthy environments can cause major diseases and lead to over 6 million deaths annually from stroke, ischemic heart disease, cancers, chronic respiratory diseases, and unintentional injuries. Young children and older adults are most at risk of environment-related deaths. Lower respiratory infections and diarrhea mainly impact children, while older adults face higher risks of noncommunicable diseases such as stroke, heart disease, cancer, and chronic lung diseases. Exposure to chemicals in cigarettes, asbestos, and indoor air pollutants from wood stoves or gas ranges can increase health risks like lung cancer and breathing problems.

1. Rheumatic fever occurs more frequently in low-income countries due to poorer lifestyles and nutritional deficiencies compared to developed countries. Many risk factors for rheumatic fever are nutrition-based or environmentally influenced.
2. Mitral valve stenosis causes increased left atrial pressure and pulmonary hypertension, leading to symptoms like fatigue, breathlessness, and irregular pulse that reduce exercise ability. The thickened left atrial walls exert pressure over time.
3. Pulmonary edema can result from mitral valve stenosis due to increased intravascular hydrostatic pressure from mitral valve regurgitation. Studies have shown regurgitant jets can cause localized hydrostatic pressure increases and primarily right upper lobe edema.

Degenerative diseases like heart disease, cancer, and strokes cause more deaths in developed countries compared to developing countries, where infectious diseases are a larger problem. Degenerative diseases are linked to lifestyle and longevity, while infectious diseases spread more easily in developing countries due to poverty, poor diet, and limited healthcare. The document considers whether increased longevity from better medical care in developed countries paradoxically leads to more degenerative and infectious diseases over time.

Myocarditis is an inflammation of the heart muscle that is usually caused by a viral infection. It occurs when viruses or other pathogens infect and damage heart muscle cells. This can weaken the heart and lead to complications like heart failure, abnormal heart rhythms, or sudden cardiac death. Myocarditis is rare, affecting fewer than 1 million people per year in India. It most commonly occurs in young adults and is usually caused by viruses like coxsackievirus. Symptoms can include chest pain, difficulty breathing, and fatigue. Diagnosis involves blood tests, electrocardiograms, and cardiac imaging. Treatment focuses on relieving symptoms and may include medications, corticosteroids, or even a heart transplant in severe cases
Cardiovascular disease
Cardiovascular disease and periodontal disease are both inflammatory conditions that are linked. A consensus paper developed recommendations for cardiologists and periodontists to collaborate in treating patients. Cardiologists may now examine a patient's mouth for signs of gum disease, while periodontists can assess risk factors for heart disease. The goal is for both specialties to work together to reduce chronic inflammation and thereby lower patients' risk for further progression of either disease.

Aids not someone else's problem
AIDS was first recognized in 1982 and is caused by the HIV virus which weakens the immune system. It is transmitted through unprotected sex, blood transfusions, needle sharing, and from mother to child. Symptoms include flu-like symptoms as well as infections, rashes, and memory loss. While money has been spent developing treatments, the virus continues to mutate, making a vaccine difficult. Effective prevention requires increasing access to treatment as well as prevention programs, but developing worldwide programs is expensive. Additionally, unwillingness to openly discuss sexual behaviors and HIV/AIDS has hampered prevention efforts.
Tackling the challenges of respiratory medicine
Respiratory medicine still faces many challenges that are brought on by modern lifestyles. The population is aging, many individuals are still unable to quit smoking, and environmental factors, like air pollution, remain largely unsolved. With these, the global burden of respiratory disease has been predicted to continue increasing in the years to come.

Rheumatoid arthritis is an autoimmune disorder that primarily affects the joints, resulting in warm, swollen, and painful joints that typically worsen with rest. While the causes are unclear, genetics and smoking increase the risk. RA affects not only the joints but also other body systems, causing issues like lung and heart inflammation. Diagnosis involves x-rays of affected joints and blood tests for markers like rheumatoid factor. Treatment focuses on reducing symptoms through medications and exercise to maintain functioning, as there is no cure.
Autoimmune
The document discusses several autoimmune diseases where the immune system attacks the body's own cells and tissues, including:
- Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), which can damage multiple organs like the heart, joints, skin, lungs, blood vessels, and kidneys. It occurs more in women and symptoms include rashes, fatigue, and pain. Kidney damage is common.
- Sjögren's syndrome, an autoimmune disorder characterized by dry eyes and mouth due to immune destruction of salivary and tear glands.
- Multiple sclerosis, where the immune system attacks the myelin sheath surrounding nerves in the brain and spinal cord, causing symptoms like vision problems

Cardiovascular disease involves the heart and blood vessels. There are several types of cardiovascular disease including coronary artery disease, peripheral arterial disease, cerebrovascular disease, cardiomyopathy, and valvular heart disease. The main risk factors for cardiovascular disease are genetics, age, gender, smoking, physical inactivity, diet, and sleep. Treatments for cardiovascular disease depend on the type but may include lifestyle changes, medications, and medical procedures like stents or surgery.
Periodontal disease and cardio vascular disease shree
The document discusses the bidirectional relationship between oral health and systemic health. It outlines how the oral cavity can become a source of infection that affects other parts of the body if tissues are breached, using periodontitis as an example. It also explains how periodontal disease can potentially affect various organ systems, focusing on its relationship to cardiovascular disease. Specifically, it describes how certain periodontal pathogens may increase the risk of atherosclerosis and CVD through direct infection of blood vessels or by triggering inflammation. Treating periodontal disease is shown to reduce inflammation and improve endothelial function, both of which are linked to decreased cardiovascular risk.
Different Types of First Aid Shocks
Check out the five basic types of first aid shocks, people faces in their life and the importance of first aid training to properly handling any medical emergency.
Oral health and overall health
People with clean teeth and good oral health live healthier lives overall. Research has found that the number of teeth is related to the amount of atherosclerotic plaque buildup in carotid arteries in elderly patients. Periodontal diseases like periodontitis are potential risk factors for cardiovascular diseases and respiratory illnesses. Periodontal intervention can improve outcomes for patients with diabetes by reducing inflammation and improving lipid and glucose levels.
Pulmonary Vascular Research Institute
Pulmonary hypertension is a major health issue affecting millions in the developing world. Some key causes include schistosomiasis which impacts 10-20 million people, high altitude living which affects 5-7 million, and HIV which contributes to 15-30 million cases of pulmonary hypertension in developing countries compared to only 0.5-1 million in developed nations. Pulmonary hypertension can be associated with conditions such as schistosomiasis, HIV, congenital heart disease, rheumatic heart disease, Chagas disease, endomyocardial fibrosis, and living at high altitude.

Health awareness
Smoking cigarettes harms nearly every organ in the body, causing many illnesses and negatively impacting overall health. It increases risks of circulatory diseases like heart attacks, arteriosclerosis, and vascular diseases by raising heart rate and blood pressure. Respiratory diseases from smoking include chronic bronchitis, emphysema, asthma, coughs, colds, tuberculosis, and lung cancer.

This document discusses the potential linkages between periodontal disease and systemic diseases like coronary heart disease and stroke. It suggests that periodontal disease may influence these conditions through three main mechanisms: shared risk factors, the periodontium acting as a reservoir for bacteria and inflammatory mediators, and transient bacteremias from periodontal infections potentially causing endothelial dysfunction. The document reviews evidence on specific inflammatory markers and pathogens that may provide biological pathways for this periodontal-systemic connection. It proposes models to explain potential direct and indirect impacts of periodontal infection on atheroma formation and thrombus development that can lead to heart disease and stroke.
Complications related to diabetes
This document discusses the short-term and long-term complications that can arise from diabetes. It notes that complications can be acute like hypoglycemia and hyperglycemia, or chronic over the long-term such as changes to small blood vessels and large arteries. Left uncontrolled, diabetes complications become more severe over time and can ultimately lead to diminished health and even death. Managing blood glucose levels is important for reducing complications.
Effects of Smoking
Smoking can cause lung disease by damaging your airways and the small air sacs (alveoli) found in your lungs. Lung diseases caused by smoking include COPD, which includes emphysema and chronic bronchitis. Cigarette smoking causes most cases of lung cancer.
Cardiac Implications Of Periodontal diseases
This document discusses the connection between periodontal (gum) disease and cardiovascular disease. It summarizes studies that found people with periodontal disease are at greater risk of heart disease and stroke. The document explores potential pathways like bacteria and inflammatory mediators that may link the two conditions. It also reviews new treatment approaches aimed at reducing this systemic risk by controlling periodontal infection and inflammation.
Periodontal medicine
This document discusses the relationship between periodontal disease and various systemic conditions. It covers topics such as focal infection theory, the subgingival environment as a reservoir of bacteria, and how periodontitis can impact the cardiovascular, cerebrovascular, reproductive, and respiratory systems. Periodontitis allows bacteria and their byproducts like LPS to enter the bloodstream and trigger increased inflammation and cytokine production, contributing to conditions like atherosclerosis, stroke, preterm low birth weight, preeclampsia, and hospital-acquired pneumonia.
Tobacco santi roldan serena griffin tomas lucas, 2012
Tobacco smoking can cause many types of cancer like lung, throat, stomach, and bladder cancer due to chemicals like tar in the smoke. It also increases the risk of osteoporosis, a condition where bones become weak and break easily. Smoking causes emphysema, a lung disease that results in shortness of breath, and heart disease through blockage of arteries. Smoking reduces fertility in both men and women by damaging DNA and increases risks of injury, slower healing, illness, and reduced athletic performance due to effects on the body like rapid heartbeat.
Hepatitis
Hepatitis can be detected through inflammation of the liver characterized by inflammatory cells in the tissue. There are types A and C which differ in symptoms and effects. Acute viral hepatitis may be asymptomatic in younger people but symptomatic individuals can experience flu-like symptoms like fever and abdominal discomfort after 7-10 days, lasting 2-6 weeks. While acute hepatitis lesions contain mononuclear infiltrates and swollen hepatocytes, treatment focuses on identifying the type, addressing any chemical imbalances, restoring liver defenses, and prescribing antibiotics or other solutions for 2+ weeks depending on the case.
Manifestaciones Extrapulmonares COVID-19
This document lists and describes various extrapulmonary manifestations that have been observed in patients with COVID-19, including neurological, cardiac, renal, dermatological, gastrointestinal, ocular, and other multi-organ system effects. Some of the extrapulmonary manifestations mentioned are headache, stroke, meningitis, acute kidney injury, cardiac arrhythmias and injuries, blood clots, rashes, anosmia and ageusia, liver abnormalities, and neurological effects like delirium. The document provides references to studies examining these wide ranging effects of COVID-19 beyond just the lungs.
COMPLICATION OF CORONA CORONA-A- DEADLY DISEASE
Covid-19 is caused by a novel coronavirus that can lead to complications in some patients. About 20% of cases experience serious illness such as acute respiratory failure, pneumonia, and acute respiratory distress syndrome. Other potential complications include acute cardiac injury, acute kidney injury, acute liver injury, blood clots, rhabdomyolysis, and septic shock. While 80% of patients experience mild cases, Covid-19 has a higher mortality rate than influenza. Older individuals and those with pre-existing conditions are at highest risk.
Why is pneumonia so rampant in hospitals?
Hospital-acquired pneumonia, also known as nosocomial pneumonia, refers to pneumonia contracted within 48-72 hours of hospitalization and is commonly caused by bacterial infections. It is easy for hospital patients to develop this type of pneumonia because they are generally ill with weakened immune systems. Certain patients are at higher risk, such as those over 70, having prior antibiotic treatments, or using ventilators. Hospital-acquired pneumonia can be difficult to treat due to the variety of bacteria that may cause it, and physicians may perform bronchoscopy to determine the specific bacteria to select the proper antibiotic treatment.

Bronchiectasis
Bronchiectasis is a chronic lung disease involving the abnormal widening of the bronchi. It can be congenital or acquired after birth, usually due to a severe lung infection that damages the bronchial tubes. Common causes include recurrent lung infections, tuberculosis, cystic fibrosis, and immunodeficiency disorders. Symptoms vary but often include a chronic cough with sputum, repeated lung infections, shortness of breath, and wheezing. Diagnosis involves physical exam, imaging tests, and pulmonary function tests. Treatment focuses on controlling infections with antibiotics, loosening mucus with medications, and preventing worsening of the condition.
respiratory and circulatory diseases.pptx
The document discusses several respiratory diseases including asthma, common cold, pneumonia, influenza, and bronchitis. It also discusses several circulatory/cardiovascular diseases such as atherosclerosis, stroke, hypertension, and heart attack. It provides details on the causes, symptoms, and transmission of each disease. It concludes with recommendations for preventing respiratory and circulatory diseases such as good nutrition, exercise, hygiene, avoiding smoking and crowds.
Preeclampsia Pregnancy-Induced Syndrome
Preeclampsia/eclampsia is a pregnancy-induced syndrome that usually occurs after 20 weeks of gestation and is characterized by high blood pressure, which can lead to serious complications for both the mother and baby if untreated. It is a leading cause of maternal and infant morbidity and mortality worldwide. The exact causes are unknown but it is thought to be related to reduced blood flow to the placenta caused by abnormalities in the development of the placenta and its blood vessels during pregnancy.
Bronchiectasis
Bronchiectasis is a chronic lung disease that causes the bronchial tubes to widen permanently. It can be congenital or acquired after birth, usually due to a lung infection that damages the bronchial tubes. Common causes include recurrent lung infections, tuberculosis, cystic fibrosis, and immunodeficiencies. Symptoms include chronic cough with sputum, repeated lung infections, shortness of breath, fatigue, and wheezing. Diagnosis involves physical exam, chest x-ray, CT scan, and pulmonary function tests. Treatment focuses on controlling infections with antibiotics, loosening mucus with medications, and preventing worsening of the condition.
Bronchiectasis: Beyond the Chronic Cough
Bronchiectasis is a chronic respiratory condition characterized by irreversible widening and scarring of the airways (bronchi) in the lungs. This widening and scarring result from repeated inflammation and infection, leading to the accumulation of mucus and impaired clearance of bacteria and debris from the airways. Common symptoms of bronchiectasis include chronic cough, production of large amounts of sputum (phlegm), recurrent respiratory infections, shortness of breath, fatigue, and chest pain. Treatment typically involves a combination of airway clearance techniques, medications to manage symptoms and prevent infections, and sometimes surgery in severe cases. Early diagnosis and management can help improve quality of life and reduce complications associated with bronchiectasis.
Septicemia
Septicemia is a life-threatening blood infection caused by bacteria entering the bloodstream from a site of infection. Common symptoms include fever, rapid breathing/heartbeat, low blood pressure, and mental confusion. Bacteria such as E. coli, streptococcus pneumoniae, and salmonella are often involved. The document details types, causes, diagnosis, and treatment of septicemia, including antibiotics and supportive care. It concludes by emphasizing the importance of preventing and promptly treating infections to avoid septicemia.
PBH101 Assignment on CKD
This document discusses chronic kidney disease (CKD). It defines CKD as a progressive loss of renal function over months or years that is identified by increased creatinine levels and protein or blood in the urine. The two main causes of CKD are diabetes and high blood pressure, which together account for two-thirds of cases. Symptoms of CKD may not appear until later stages and include fatigue, poor appetite, and swollen limbs. Anyone can develop CKD, but those with diabetes, high blood pressure, family history, older age, or certain ethnicities are at higher risk. CKD is diagnosed through tests of kidney function and imaging and staged based on glomerular filtration rate.

Pneumonia is an infection of the lungs that can be caused by bacteria, viruses, or fungi. Symptoms may include cough, fever, chills, and shortness of breath. Diagnosis involves listening to the lungs and often chest X-rays. Treatment depends on the cause but generally involves antibiotics, cough medicine, and fever reducers. People with more severe symptoms or who are at higher risk may need to be hospitalized.
cape biology unit 2 -_health_and_disease
Health can be defined as a person's physical, mental and social well-being, while disease disrupts good health through disorders or malfunctions. Good health requires proper shelter, nutrition, hygiene, exercise and access to medical care. Diseases can be acute with sudden onset and short duration, or chronic with long-term effects. Smoking causes several diseases like lung cancer and heart disease by exposing the body to toxic chemicals in cigarettes that damage tissues over time. Statistics on disease patterns help identify causes and transmission routes to improve public health.

What causes people to snore?
Millions of people snore when they sleep. Genetic factors could cause snoring, as well as one’s sleeping position or underlying health condition. According to sleep medicine specialist Lisa M. Cannon, M.D., the sound is caused by a heavy flow of air that blocks the breathing pathways. This can cause vibration in areas such as the soft palate, uvula, tongue, and others. The space in the airways diminishes as muscles in the neck and throat relax along with the rest of the body.

Study: Obese patients more likely to survive from sepsis
Researchers from the University of Michigan found that obese patients had higher survival rates from sepsis than normal weight patients. A study of over 1,400 Medicare patients found heavier patients who got sepsis were more likely to survive. While many doctors believe obese patients will do worse with conditions like sepsis, this study found they actually have lower mortality and similar functional outcomes as normal weight patients. However, maintaining a normal weight still has many health benefits overall. Understanding how body weight impacts responses to critical illnesses can help improve care for sepsis and other conditions.
New study links cancer-related incidental pulmonary embolism to VTE
A recent article discussed the relationship between cancer and incidental pulmonary embolism (IPE). In the study, it was found that cancer patients who have this comorbid condition should ask their specialist for a long-term anticoagulant treatment. Analysts found that the risk of developing symptomatic recurrent venous thromboembolism (VTE) doubled among patients who did not receive an anticoagulant treatment
How To Deal With Sleepwalking
Sleepwalking, also known as somnambulism, affects around 1.5% of adults and 5% of children, where individuals engage in activities like walking or sitting while appearing awake but having no memory and occurring during slow-wave sleep. While usually harmless, there have been reports of dangerous behaviors resulting in injuries. There are no proven interventions to stop occurrences, but risks can be minimized through sufficient sleep, avoiding triggers, and creating a relaxing routine. Sleepwalking is often outgrown, but persistent cases should be checked by a sleep specialist.
Effects of smoking on exercise and physical fitness

What makes pneumonia a deadly respiratory disease?
- 1. Image source: health.harvard.edu Image source: healthline.com What makes pneumonia a deadly respiratory disease? December 20, 2019 Most people do not perceive pneumonia as a deadly disease, but statistics prove otherwise. Often, pneumonia can be the complication that pushes a patient to the limit. According to Lisa M. Cannon, M.D., pneumonia can introduce complications that can be hard to spot but produce deadly effects. Here are some examples of these complications. Septic shock: Bacteria-caused pneumonia can sometimes enter the bloodstream, especially if treatments were ignored. This condition is called Bacteremia, which can lead to septic shock. Septic shock occurs as a reaction to an infection in the blood, which causes a person’s blood pressure to drop down to dangerous levels. It can starve a person’s organs of blood and force them to stop functioning altogether. Kidney failure: When a person’s kidneys don’t get enough blood, it can lead to kidney failure. Bacteremia or septic shock can cause this as it could prevent a person’s heart from pumping enough blood to a person’s organs. Odds of kidney failure increases for patients who are suffering from other medical conditions other than pneumonia. Respiratory failure: People who suffer from pneumonia can sometimes have fluid build-up in their lungs. This can prevent the lungs from transferring oxygen to the blood, as well as remove carbon dioxide in the blood. If left untreated, this can affect all organs and lead to death. Accomplished physician Lisa M. Cannon, M.D. , graduated with a degree in medicine from New York Medical College and earned her fellowship in pulmonary, critical care, and sleep medicine from the renowned Mount Sinai Hospital in New York.
