Palliative care presentation slide4.pptx
Hypercalcaemia is caused by high levels of calcium in the blood and is often associated with cancer, especially squamous cell carcinoma, rather than bone metastases. Common cancers linked to hypercalcaemia include head and neck cancer, breast cancer, lung cancer, kidney cancer, cervical cancer, and cancers of the esophagus and myeloma. Symptoms of hypercalcaemia include thirst, frequent urination, constipation, abdominal pain, drowsiness, confusion, nausea, vomiting, and potentially unconsciousness.
Palliative class presentation slid3.pptx
1. Symptom control in palliative care requires a systematic approach including thorough assessment of each symptom, diagnosis of the underlying cause, explanation to the patient, individualized treatment, and continuous monitoring.
2. Common gastrointestinal symptoms like nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, and constipation are addressed through both pharmacological and non-pharmacological management depending on the specific cause.
3. Breathlessness, wound care, and malignant spinal cord compression are also managed based on identifying and treating their underlying causes while providing pain relief and other supportive care measures.

Laws governing the use of morphine and other opioids (class A drugs) are regulated by international treaties like the 1961 Single Convention on Narcotic Drugs and its 1972 protocol, as well as by national laws. At the international level, the UN's International Narcotics Control Board oversees proper medical use and prevents abuse. Nationally, importation and distribution of opioids is tightly controlled and regulated by statutes like the National Drug Policy and Authority Act of 1993, which specify storage, transportation, prescription, and disposal requirements and penalties for non-compliance.
Palliative care presentation slides.pptx
Myths surround the use of opioids for pain management. Several studies from India and Africa have shown no cases of addiction in patients using morphine for pain control, dispelling the myth that opioids inevitably lead to addiction. Physical dependence and tolerance are normal physiological responses to long-term opioid use and do not indicate addiction. Effective pain management can be achieved through a combination of pharmacological treatments like opioids and non-pharmacological methods rather than relying solely on as-needed pain medications.
Development studies - presentation .pptx
Development studies is an interdisciplinary field that examines development issues and problems in developing countries. It emerged after World War II as economists and social scientists studied development in less developed nations. Over time, development studies has become cross-disciplinary, drawing from fields like economics, politics, sociology, and anthropology. It aims to understand development challenges from historical and comparative perspectives to inform solutions through interdisciplinary research and knowledge production.

IMMUNODEFICIENCIES lecture for bach.pptx
There are two categories of immunodeficiencies: primary and secondary. Primary immunodeficiencies are inherited and involve genetic defects affecting parts of the immune system like T cells, B cells, or phagocytes. Secondary immunodeficiencies are acquired and can result from infections, medications, malignancies, or organ transplants. Both types increase risk of infections and tumors due to a compromised immune system. The immune system normally defends against tumors through effector cells like T cells, macrophages, and natural killer cells, but tumors can evade detection through mechanisms like suppression of immune responses.

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.

Cell Therapy Expansion and Challenges in Autoimmune Disease
There is increasing confidence that cell therapies will soon play a role in the treatment of autoimmune disorders, but the extent of this impact remains to be seen. Early readouts on autologous CAR-Ts in lupus are encouraging, but manufacturing and cost limitations are likely to restrict access to highly refractory patients. Allogeneic CAR-Ts have the potential to broaden access to earlier lines of treatment due to their inherent cost benefits, however they will need to demonstrate comparable or improved efficacy to established modalities.
In addition to infrastructure and capacity constraints, CAR-Ts face a very different risk-benefit dynamic in autoimmune compared to oncology, highlighting the need for tolerable therapies with low adverse event risk. CAR-NK and Treg-based therapies are also being developed in certain autoimmune disorders and may demonstrate favorable safety profiles. Several novel non-cell therapies such as bispecific antibodies, nanobodies, and RNAi drugs, may also offer future alternative competitive solutions with variable value propositions.
Widespread adoption of cell therapies will not only require strong efficacy and safety data, but also adapted pricing and access strategies. At oncology-based price points, CAR-Ts are unlikely to achieve broad market access in autoimmune disorders, with eligible patient populations that are potentially orders of magnitude greater than the number of currently addressable cancer patients. Developers have made strides towards reducing cell therapy COGS while improving manufacturing efficiency, but payors will inevitably restrict access until more sustainable pricing is achieved.
Despite these headwinds, industry leaders and investors remain confident that cell therapies are poised to address significant unmet need in patients suffering from autoimmune disorders. However, the extent of this impact on the treatment landscape remains to be seen, as the industry rapidly approaches an inflection point.
