This document discusses the importance and insights that can be gained from handwriting analysis. It states that handwriting provides a window into a person's deepest self and subconscious mind as it is imprinted through unconscious thought processes. Up to 90% of the brain is activated during writing compared to only 15-20% during speech, allowing for deeper understanding. Handwriting analysis can provide understanding of oneself, others, and be used for career insights like recruitment and child development to help nurture strengths and address weaknesses. It suggests exploring these concepts through experience rather than just proof, as spiritual sciences rely more on belief and trust than material sciences.

MALARIA - Pharm D III year Therap .pptxAyesha Fatima
油
Malaria is a life-threatening disease. Its typically transmitted through the bite of an infected Anopheles mosquito. Infected mosquitoes carry the Plasmodium parasite. When this mosquito bites you, the parasite is released into your blood stream.
Phylum : Protozoa
Subphylum : Apicomplexa (Sporozoa)
Class : Telosporea
Genus : Plasmodium
Species : vivax
Plasmodium is one of the most harmful parasites of man.
It is a digenetic, intracellular parasite that lives in the liver cells and RBC of man. (It is extracellular in mosquito).
Its primary host is the female Anopheles mosquito and the secondary host is man. Reservoir host is monkey.
The infective stage is sickle shaped sporozoite and the mode of infection is inoculation.
Four species of Plasmodium cause four types of malaria in man.
They are
i) Plasmodium vivax benign tertian malaria
ii) Plasmodium falciparum malignant tertian malaria
iii) Plasmodium ovale mild tertian malaria
iv) Plasmodium malariae quartan malaria
Of all these four species, Plasmodium vivax is the most common and most widely distributed malaria parasite.
OBJECTIVES AND USE OF ANTIMALARIAL DRUGS
The aims of using drugs in relation to malarial infection are:
(i) To prevent clinical attack of malaria (prophylactic).
(ii) To treat clinical attack of malaria (clinical curative).
(iii) To completely eradicate the parasite from the patients body (radical curative).
(iv) To cutdown human-to-mosquito transmission (gametocidal).
These are achieved by attacking the parasite at its various stages of life cycle in the human host .
Antimalarials that act on erythrocytic schizogony are called erythrocytic schizontocides
Antimalarials that act on pre erythrocytic as well as exoerythrocytic (P. vivax) stages in liver are called tissue schizontocides,
Antimalarials which kill gametocytes in blood are called gametocides.

How Caffeine Affects Blood Sugar: Its Influence on Glucose Levels, Insulin Se...Dr. Mayank Somani
油
Caffeine, a widely consumed stimulant found in coffee, tea, and energy drinks, has significant effects on the body, particularly on blood sugar regulation. Understanding how caffeine interacts with glucose metabolism is essential, especially for individuals managing diabetes. Caffeine can impact blood sugar levels by reducing insulin sensitivity, making it harder for cells to absorb glucose efficiently. It also triggers stress hormones like cortisol and adrenaline, which can lead to temporary spikes in blood sugar. Additionally, caffeine affects sleep quality, and poor sleep is linked to impaired blood sugar control. It can also influence appetite, sometimes reducing hunger or triggering cravings for high-carb foods. However, caffeine has potential benefits, including antioxidants and metabolism-boosting properties, which may help in diabetes management when consumed in moderation. Striking a balance is keywhile caffeine can have both positive and negative effects on blood sugar, monitoring intake and consulting a diabetologist, such as Dr. Mayank Somani, can help individuals make informed decisions about their caffeine consumption.
