Hyperbilirubinemia is an elevated level of bilirubin in the blood that can cause jaundice. Bilirubin is formed from the breakdown of heme from red blood cells and is transported to the liver where it is conjugated and excreted in bile or reabsorbed in the enterohepatic circulation. Elevated bilirubin can be unconjugated or conjugated due to various hepatocellular or cholestatic conditions. Hereditary disorders like Crigler-Najjar syndrome and Gilbert's syndrome involve defects in bilirubin conjugation leading to unconjugated hyperbilirubinemia. Cholestatic diseases impair bile formation and flow causing conjugHemolytic anemia; Harrison 19th edition

Hereditary hemolytic anemias can be caused by defects in the red blood cell's hemoglobin, membrane, metabolic machinery or enzymes. Glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) deficiency is the most common enzyme defect causing hemolytic anemia. It results from a lack of the enzyme G6PD, which protects red blood cells from oxidative damage. Patients with G6PD deficiency typically present with neonatal jaundice or acute hemolytic anemia triggered by factors like fava beans, infections or drugs. An acute hemolytic episode is characterized by symptoms like jaundice and dark urine over hours to days, along with signs of intravascular and extravascular hemolysis on lab tests.Monogenic hypertension prof. ayman hammad

The Union for International Cancer Control (UICC) and the American Joint Committee on Cancer (AJCC) collaborate closely to produce the globally recognized TNM Classification of Malignant Tumours. Therefore, when discussing the "9th edition of UICC head and neck staging," it's largely in alignment with the updates introduced by the AJCC's Version 9. The UICC's TNM Core Committee finalized the 9th edition of the TNM Classification, with publication anticipated in August 2025.
The key updates for head and neck cancers in the 9th edition (or Version 9) reflect an ongoing effort to improve prognostic accuracy and align staging with contemporary clinical understanding and treatment outcomes. Here are the significant changes, particularly those relevant to head and neck:
* Emphasis on Personalized Care and Prognostic Refinements: The 9th edition reflects a greater focus on personalized care, incorporating refinements that aim to better predict patient outcomes.
* Revised Criteria for Specific Head and Neck Cancers:
* Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma (NPC): This site has seen substantial revisions, as highlighted in the previous response on AJCC updates. Key changes include:
* More precise definition of T3 disease (unequivocal evidence of bone involvement).
* Introduction of advanced radiologic extranodal extension (ENE) as an N3 criterion. This acknowledges the prognostic impact of ENE seen on imaging.
* Subclassification of M1 disease into M1a (3 or fewer metastatic lesions) and M1b (more than 3 lesions) to better stratify prognosis in metastatic settings.
* Redefined Stage Groups for NPC, with T1-2N0-1 now often falling into Stage I, and Stage IV being exclusively for metastatic disease, further subdivided by the M1a/M1b categories.
* Salivary Gland Cancers: Revised criteria based on updated imaging and anatomical features are being incorporated.
* HPV-Related Oropharyngeal Cancers: New staging is introduced for HPV-associated oropharyngeal cancers to better reflect their distinct biological behavior and prognosis, which is generally more favorable than HPV-negative oropharyngeal cancers. This often involves specific considerations for nodal burden.
* Integration of Imaging and Anatomical Features: The updates are grounded in recent evidence, incorporating insights from advanced imaging techniques and a deeper understanding of anatomical spread.
* International Collaboration: These updates are the result of collaborative efforts between the AJCC and UICC, involving input from cancer registries, clinical outcomes data, and disease-specific experts worldwide. The goal is to provide a unified and globally applicable staging system.
* Dynamic Update Process: Similar to the AJCC's shift from "Editions" to "Versions" for specific sites, the UICC is also exploring more flexible ways to share future TNM updates.

This in-depth PowerPoint presentation provides a comprehensive and essential guide to the human urinary system, specifically tailored for nursing students. Designed to simplify complex concepts and enhance learning, this PPT covers all critical aspects of urinary anatomy and physiology.
Key topics meticulously explored include:
Gross and Microscopic Anatomy of the Urinary System: Detailed examination of the kidneys (cortex, medulla, nephrons, renal pyramids, calyces, renal pelvis), ureters, urinary bladder, and urethra. High-quality anatomical diagrams and histological images are integrated to facilitate visual learning.
Physiology of Urine Formation: A step-by-step breakdown of glomerular filtration, tubular reabsorption (proximal convoluted tubule, loop of Henle, distal convoluted tubule, collecting duct), and tubular secretion. Emphasis is placed on the roles of various hormones (ADH, aldosterone, ANP, parathyroid hormone) and their impact on fluid and electrolyte balance. Understanding the juxtaglomerular apparatus (JGA) and its role in blood pressure regulation is also a key focus.
Regulation of Fluid and Electrolyte Balance: Exploration of the body's mechanisms for maintaining homeostasis, including the roles of the kidneys in regulating water balance, sodium, potassium, calcium, phosphate, and acid-base balance (bicarbonate buffer system).
