The autonomic nervous system is the involuntary branch of the nervous system. It consists only of motor nerves and is divided into the sympathetic and parasympathetic divisions. The sympathetic division originates from the spinal cord segments T1 to L2 and uses norepinephrine as a neurotransmitter. The parasympathetic division originates from the brainstem and sacral spinal cord and always uses acetylcholine as a neurotransmitter. The autonomic nervous system controls internal organs like the heart, blood vessels, and glands.
lect. 1 mental health and mental illness (2).pptAbdallahAlasal1
油
The document discusses concepts related to mental health and mental illness. It defines mental health as successful adaptation to stressors through age-appropriate thoughts, feelings and behaviors aligned with cultural norms. Mental illness is defined as maladaptive responses to stressors evidenced by incongruent thoughts, feelings and behaviors that interfere with functioning. It also describes Hans Selye's general adaptation syndrome model of stress responses and identifies anxiety and grief as major psychological responses to stress.
The objectives of reproductive health are to make quality maternal and reproductive services accessible to rural populations, enhance prevention of diseases affecting maternal health, and broaden the institutional and human resource capacities of local governments, health centers, communities, and men and women involved in reproductive health.
This document discusses enzymes and factors that affect their action. It defines enzymes as protein catalysts that lower activation energy and increase the rate of reactions. The key factors discussed are:
1. Substrate concentration - reactions reach saturation when enzymes are fully occupied
2. pH - enzymes have optimal pH ranges for activity
3. Temperature - activity increases with temperature until enzymes denature
4. Inhibitors - chemicals that reduce reaction rates by blocking enzyme active sites
The document also describes different types of inhibitors including competitive inhibitors that resemble substrates and reversible inhibitors that can be removed from solutions. Specific drug examples of competitive inhibitors are provided.
week 9 Assessment and Management of Patients with Hypertension- crisis.pptAbdallahAlasal1
油
This document discusses hypertension, including its definition, classification, causes, symptoms, risk factors, complications, assessment, treatment, and nursing care. Hypertension is defined as a blood pressure over 140/90 mmHg. It can be primary or secondary to other conditions. Treatment involves lifestyle modifications like diet and exercise as well as medication. Nursing focuses on patient education to promote adherence to the treatment regimen and prevent complications like stroke and heart disease. Hypertensive crises require rapid treatment to lower blood pressure and prevent organ damage.
This document provides an overview of virology and prions. It begins by defining viruses and their general properties, such as lacking a nucleus and being obligate intracellular parasites. It then describes viral structure including nucleic acids, capsids, envelopes, and symmetry. The document explains the viral replication cycle and classification of medically important viruses. It also discusses viral pathogenesis, transmission, infection, and persistence. Finally, it provides information about prions, which are abnormal proteinaceous agents that can induce neurodegenerative disease by converting normal prion proteins into abnormal ones. Prion diseases are untreatable and fatal.
Governance of seabed integrity in the Baltic Seapermagoveu
油
Seabed integrity depends on the health and wellbeing of benthic habitats found on the seafloor. These habitats include geological and biological components that are constantly pressured by human activities e.g. dredging, bottom trawling.
PERMAGOV analysis of governance arrangements shows that the availability of knowledge is an essential enabler for seabed governance. Missing knowledge about the locations and extent of benthic habitat types, impacts of bottom trawling, cumulative impacts of activities, and the recovery potential of habitats hamper seabed governance.
Setting threshold values can support seabed governance by providing concrete quantified targets for seabed protection and legal depth for the enforcement of the MSFD.

Considerations for appropriate assessment of efficacy of biopesticides in the...OECD Environment
油
The OECD Seminar on Different aspects of efficacy evaluation of biopesticides, held on 28-29 June 2021, covered the similarities and differences of the efficacy evaluation of the different categories of biopesticides, new application techniques, efficacy evaluation of biopesticides based on plant defence inducers (PDI), comparison of efficacy requirements for biostimulants vs. biopesticides, how to evaluate different Integrated Pest Management (IPM) modules, and registration pathways with limited or no evaluation of efficacy. The event facilitated exchanges between policy makers, academia, and industry.
Water pollution occurs when harmful substances contaminate a body of water, making it toxic to humans and the environment.
Causes
Point source pollution: Pollution from specific sources like sewage treatment plants or factories
Diffuse pollution: Pollution from widespread sources like farming and power plants
Oil spills: Accidental spills, transportation, runoff, and intentional dumping
Industrial wastewater: Heavy metals, dyes, and other pollutants released into water bodies
Agricultural runoff: Fertilizers, pesticides, and salt
