The document discusses the consequences of the sexual revolution in the 1950s-1990s. It led to increased sexually transmitted diseases and HIV/AIDS infections due to abandoning traditional sexual constraints. Premarital sex can cause psychological harm in adolescents and lead to future marital problems. The sexual revolution was underpinned by philosophies promoting recreational sex and a casual attitude toward sexuality.Aids Powerpoint

HIV attacks and destroys CD4 cells, weakening the immune system and making one susceptible to infections and illnesses over time. If left untreated, HIV develops into AIDS, which is the final stage where the CD4 count is very low and one's ability to fight infection is lost. While there is no cure for HIV/AIDS, antiretroviral therapy can control the virus and help those infected live longer if medications are taken as prescribed.HIV AIDS presentation

This presentation provides an overview of HIV and AIDS. It defines HIV as a virus that attacks the immune system and destroys the body's ability to fight infections and diseases. It is transmitted through certain body fluids like blood, semen, vaginal fluids, and breast milk. The presentation details how HIV infects and replicates within immune cells called CD4 cells. It explains the stages of HIV infection from the initial window period to the development of AIDS when the immune system is severely compromised. Treatment options are discussed as well as strategies for prevention.

This document summarizes information about lung transplantation. It discusses that lungs are located in the chest and function to oxygenate blood and remove carbon dioxide. Over 1,200 lung transplants are performed annually in the US, with a 5-year survival rate of 72-83%. However, over 111,000 people are waiting for lungs and over 6,500 people die each year waiting. Lung transplants are considered for those with end-stage lung disease who have less than 2 years to live. The procedure takes 4-8 hours in specialized hospitals and has a high cost, but can extend life for transplant recipients who must follow medical therapies and lifestyle restrictions long-term.Heart 1
Heart 1joeyprince
Ìý
The heart is located in the center-left portion of the chest and pumps oxygen-rich blood to all cells in the body. The United States performs over 2,000 heart transplants annually, with survival rates of 81% after 1 year and around 68% after 5 years. Heart transplants may be required for severe heart failure or defects that cannot be treated otherwise. Recipients must meet health criteria and take anti-rejection drugs lifelong, while living with cardiac monitoring and dietary restrictions after transplant.Cornea(1)

The cornea is the transparent front part of the eye that transmits and focuses light. About 40,000 cornea transplants are performed in the US each year, with a 90% success rate. Candidates are screened for infections or health risks and may be disqualified for certain conditions. The transplant procedure takes 1-2 hours and costs around $7,500. Post-surgery therapy includes eye drops, pills, and activity restrictions for healing.Asthma project

Asthma is a chronic inflammation of the airways that affects millions of adults and children in the U.S. It is caused by triggers like dust, pollen, pet hair, or tobacco smoke that bring about symptoms like wheezing, shortness of breath, and coughing. While asthma cannot be passed between individuals, chronic coughing may impact transmission of other illnesses. The disease affects the bronchial tubes leading to the lungs and symptoms are often worse in the morning or evening in response to cold air. Preventative inhalers can help control symptoms and attacks to manage the disease, which is lifelong once developed, though its effects can be minimized with proper treatment.Meowmeowmeow

Rabies is caused by a virus transmitted through the saliva or nervous system tissue of an infected animal. It causes flu-like symptoms that can develop into cerebral dysfunctions, anxiety, and delirium. Over 50,000 people in Asia and Africa die from rabies each year. While rabies can be either acute or chronic depending on treatment, prevention focuses on vaccinating pets, removing strays, and avoiding contact with wild animals.Narc

Narcolepsy is a neurological disorder that affects sleep control, making it difficult to stay awake during the day. Its causes are unknown but believed to be genetic and related to low levels of the brain chemical hypocretin. Symptoms include extreme daytime sleepiness with focus problems, loss of muscle tone during wakefulness, and vivid dreams or hallucinations when waking or falling asleep, typically affecting people ages 15-25 or those who don't sleep well at night.ssa

Sickle cell anemia is a genetic blood disorder caused when both parents carry the sickle cell trait and pass it to their child. The red blood cells take on a sickle shape, which prevents them from properly carrying oxygen throughout the body. Symptoms may appear after four months of age and include attacks of pain, breathing issues, fatigue and more. While there is no cure, new treatments are helping those with sickle cell anemia live longer, into their 50s rather than the previous average of 20-40 years of age. Prevention includes vaccinations, genetic counseling before having children, and living a normal life with proper precautions.Chris j powerpoint anatmoy

Leprosy is caused by the bacteria Mycobacterium leprae, which is usually spread through respiratory droplets. Children are more susceptible than adults. The top three countries with the most reported leprosy cases are India, Brazil, and Burma. Leprosy has an average incubation period of 3-5 years and the primary sign is pale skin lesions with reduced sensation. If diagnosed early, nerve damage and disability can be avoided through treatment with antibiotics such as rifampicin and daspone.Jennlevydiseaseppt

Osteogenesis imperfecta is a genetic disorder caused by a defect in the collagen gene that results in brittle bones that break easily from minor stress or trauma. There are four main types of OI that vary in severity from very mild to lethal in infancy. While there is no cure for OI, treatments focus on increasing bone strength through bisphosphonates and low-impact exercise, as well as surgery to repair broken bones. People with OI must manage their condition for life through precautions to avoid further fractures.Amanda mcgurk lupus

Lupus is an autoimmune disease with no known cause that predominantly affects women aged 15-44, especially those of African American, Asian, Native American, or Pacific Islander descent. Common symptoms include arthritis, joint pain, fever, fatigue, skin rash, and sensitivity to sunlight. While the signs and symptoms vary per individual, lupus produces antibodies that attack the body's own tissues and can affect the lungs, blood, brain, kidney, heart, and joints. There is no cure for lupus currently, but treatment involves medications like steroids, immunosuppressants, and anti-inflammatories to reduce symptoms, though it can sometimes be fatal depending on the severity of the case.Yellow fever slide

Ìý
Yellow fever is caused by a virus transmitted through the bites of infected female mosquitoes, with an incubation period of 3-6 days. Symptoms include headache, fever and muscle aches initially, and potentially progressing to jaundice, liver failure, and black vomit. While most cases are mild, the disease can be fatal for around 3% of infected individuals in the second more severe phase if left untreated.Bulimia
Bulimiajoeyprince
Ìý
Bulimia nervosa is an eating disorder characterized by binge eating followed by purging. It can be caused by genetic and environmental factors like role models and social pressures. While anyone can develop it, girls aged 15-24 are most at risk. Bulimia damages the entire body and can lead to organ failure or death if left untreated. Treatment focuses on breaking the binge-purge cycle through therapy and support to address underlying emotional issues.Yellow fever slide

Bubonic plague is caused by the Yersinia pestis bacterium which is typically transmitted through the bites of infected fleas living on rodents like rats, squirrels, and prairie dogs. Symptoms include fever, chills, swollen lymph nodes, and other flu-like symptoms appearing 1-6 days after exposure. While not usually chronic, one can be reinfected, so prevention focuses on controlling rodent populations to limit flea-borne transmission of the plague bacterium.African trypanosomiasis 
African trypanosomiasis joeyprince
Ìý
African trypanosomiasis, also known as sleeping sickness, is caused by a parasite called Trypanosoma and transmitted by the bite of the tsetse fly. It affects people in rural parts of Africa and causes symptoms like swelling at the bite site, severe fatigue, headaches, joint pain, behavioral changes, and disturbed sleep patterns. While it can cause neurological disorders and death if left untreated, it can be prevented by avoiding tsetse fly habitats or wearing protective clothing, and treated with drugs like Pentamidine, Suramin, and combinations of other drugs.Shingles
Shinglesjoeyprince
Ìý
Varicella-zoster virus causes both chickenpox and shingles. Shingles occurs when the virus reactivates after dormancy in the nervous system following chickenpox. It is characterized by a painful rash that typically affects a limited area on one side of the body. Treatment aims to reduce pain and complications through antiviral medication started within 24 hours of symptom onset, along with anti-inflammatory drugs and soothing baths. While shingles itself is usually not fatal, high-risk groups could die if exposed without proper medical care.Anthrax
Anthraxjoeyprince

Anthrax is caused by the bacteria Bacillus anthracis. It can infect humans through contact with infected animals or animal products, as well as through inhalation of anthrax spores. There are three main types - cutaneous (skin), inhalation (lungs), and gastrointestinal (digestive system). Symptoms vary depending on type but can include lesions, vomiting, diarrhea, and respiratory issues. Anthrax spores can also be used as a biological weapon. Diagnosis involves cultures and antibody tests while treatment requires long courses of antibiotics.Amanda mcgurk lupus

Skin cancerjoeyprince
Ìý
Skin cancer is the most common form of human cancer, with over 1 million new cases occurring annually. It is caused by UV rays from the sun and tanning beds, with excessive and unprotected exposure increasing risk. The three main types are basal cell carcinoma, squamous cell carcinoma, and melanoma, ordered from least to most dangerous. Signs include changes in the skin like growths, sores, or changes to existing marks. Prevention focuses on avoiding UV exposure and using sunscreen while treatment depends on the type and may include surgery, radiation, or cryosurgery.Trisomy 18
Trisomy 18joeyprince
Ìý
Trisomy 18, also known as Edwards syndrome, is a genetic disorder caused by the presence of an extra copy of chromosome 18. It occurs due to errors in cell division called nondisjunction. Trisomy 18 can be full, partial, or mosaic and symptoms include low birth weight, clenched fists, heart defects, and developmental delays. The condition is fatal in 95% of cases prenatally or within the first month of life, though treatment focuses on feeding, cardiac, and kidney issues. Trisomy 18 affects approximately 1 in 3,000 to 4,000 live births.Pneumonia(2)
Pneumonia(2)joeyprince
Ìý
Pneumonia can be caused by at least 30 different factors including inhaling vomit or chemicals and is spread through the air from contagious people without showing symptoms. Anyone can get pneumonia but it hits children especially hard in poorer areas, with common signs being fever, cough, rapid breathing, vomiting and chest pain. Prevention involves vaccines, hand washing, and avoiding others with illnesses, while treatment consists of antibiotics, rest, hydration and not smoking.Cerebral palsy
Cerebral palsyjoeyprince
Ìý
Cerebral palsy is caused by injuries or abnormalities in the brain that occur before or during birth, resulting in lower oxygen levels. It is usually diagnosed within the first two years of life. Babies who experience illnesses, bleeding in the brain, head injuries, or infections during their mother's pregnancy have a higher risk of developing cerebral palsy. Symptoms can range from mild to severe and include tight or weak muscles, poor coordination, seizures, speech and learning disabilities, and vision or hearing problems. Treatment focuses on physical, occupational and speech therapy.Cystic fibrosis
Cystic fibrosisjoeyprince
Ìý
Cystic fibrosis is caused by a genetic mutation that results in thick, sticky mucus in the lungs and digestive system. It is most common in Caucasian Americans and is inherited when each parent passes on one defective gene. Symptoms often appear in early childhood and include persistent coughing, weight loss, and increased sweat and mucus production. While there is no cure, treatments focus on lung clearance and nutrition to manage symptoms and prolong life expectancy, which has risen to an average of around 35 years.More Related Content
