Abstract:
The human placenta once was thrown after the delivery, found to be a very useful organ though it has very short life. With more and new research the old concept about placenta has changed. Now it is well established that health of growing embryo depends on the health of the placenta. To begin with immunology of neonate also depends on transplacental transport. It is well established that the health of the growing embryo depends on the health of the transplacental transport. Normally, IgG can be transported through placenta however, in Covid-19 infected pregnant woman even IgM, which is much bigger molecule than IgG, can also be transported and are found in the embryo.

Abstract:
Purpose. The aim of this article is to present an emerging theoretical framework for viewing certain types of personal crises as developmentally healthy rather than as psycho-pathological. These types of crises are referred to as “spiritual emergence” and “spiritual emergency.” Search Methods Used. Selected literature from psychology, psychiatry, and philosophy is used to describe the new paradigm, which views the development of human consciousness across the life span as going beyond the well-adjusted and productive adult ego. The intent is to introduce this paradigm and some of its implications for further critical consideration by health promotion professionals. It is not the authors' purpose to critically evaluate the relevant theoretical literature in this article. Summary of Important Findings. The new paradigm represents an expanded theory of human development that explicitly recognizes a spiritual dimension in personal growth and health. Within this paradigm, spiritual emergence and spiritual emergency are viewed as signs of transitional, personal growth rather than as symptoms of psychopathology. Accordingly, signs of growth need to be differentiated from symptoms of pathology. The first step in doing this is to contextualize human experience in a larger developmental framework. Major Conclusions. Health promotion professionals may benefit personally and professionally by being aware of the new developmental paradigm which differentiates spiritual growth from pathological symptoms. Further theoretical clarification and research will be needed before detailed recommendations for practice can be made.

Full text
Abstract:
Cerebral vasospasm is a common cause of ischemia and death in patients suffering from cerebral hemorrhage, most notably subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH), and it usually occurs 4-14 days after the initial episode of bleeding. Many mediators of cerebral vasospasm (CVS) have been proposed, but at this time the pathogenesis of CVS is poorly understood, and oxyhemoglobin is thought to be the principal pathogenic agent.<br>This project was designed to examine the effects of oxyhemoglobin on the vascular tone of the middle and basilar cerebral arteries in vitro and to evaluate the validity of using bovine vessels as an animal model of the human cerebral vasculature in which to study cerebral vasospasm. Human vessels were studied in parallel with the bovine arteries to test the validity of the animal model. To further evaluate the model, some experiments were also carried out on canine vessels, because the dog has frequently been used for cerebrovascular studies in the past.<br>The cow is a better model of the human cerebral vasculature than the dog. Arteries respond to a variety of vasoactive stimuli, in a manner closely resembling human vessels, and can be induced into a prolonged vasospastic state by exposure to oxyhemoglobin. Vasospasm in all three species was independent of endothelial status, functional innervation, or morphological evidence of atherosclerosis. Vasospasm could not be prevented by diltiazem, nicardipine or ascorbic acid, but was partially reversed in some samples by verapamil. Bovine vessels would appear to be exceptionally useful for studies designed to test pharmacological agents for the prevention or therapy of post-hemorrhagic vasospasm and also to determine the pathophysiological mechanisms involved.

Full text
Abstract:
Arterial Glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) have gained importance in artherogenesis due to their ability to trap lipid inside the vessel wall. Atherosclerotic lesions have displayed an altered GAG content and distribution. Diabetes is a recognized risk factor for atherosclerosis, but no information is available on the arterial GAGs in human diabetes. To improve our understanding of the atherogenic proccss we examined GAGs in normal and atherosclerotic intima of nondiabetic and type-II diabetic humans. Intima was stripped from the autopsy samples of thoracic aortas, normal and plaque areas were separated. GAGs were isolated by delipidatlon, proteolytic digestion, and precipitation. They were assayed biochemically and their distribution evaluated by electrophoresis and densitometry. Results indicate a significant decrease in total GAGs and a change in GAG distribution in plaques of nondiabetics. Similar changes of lesser magnitude were found in normal intima of diabetics, while changes in plaque areas were more pronounced. This indicates that changes in arterial GAGs precede the development of lesions in diabetes and may be important in atherogenesis.

Full text
Abstract:
Estrogen and progesterone receptors were localized in fresh frozen sections of human endometrial tissues, in both health and disease, using the ER-ICA kit and a mouse monoclonal antiprogesterone receptor antibody ($ alpha$PR6), respectively. Estrogen and progesterone receptors were detected exclusively in the nuclei of epithelial and stromal cells of the endometrium. Their highest levels in both components were found during the late proliferative phase of the normal menstrual cycle. Estrogen receptors decreased faster in the stroma than in the epithelium throughout the post ovulatory phase, whereas progesterone receptors decreased more rapidly in the epithelium during the mid and late secretory phases. Estrogen and progesterone receptor levels were high in the epithelium of hyperplasia without cytologic atypia. They were low in the epithelium of endometrial intraepithelial neoplasia (hyperplasia with cytologic atypia) and the majority of invasive carcinomas. The stroma contained relatively high estrogen and progesterone receptors levels, irrespective of whether the epithelium was hyperplastic or neoplastic.

Full text
Abstract:
Schneiderian papillomas (SP) are tumors arising from the surface epithelium (Schneiderian epithelium) of the nasal cavity and paranasal sinuses. Evidence points towards a viral etiology, specifically Human papillomavirus (HPV). Although substantial data indicates HPV as a likely etiology, little is known about the role of HPV in benign nasal pathologies or in normal nasal mucosa. Objective. To characterize the role of HPV in SP, chronic sinusitis (CS) and its prevalence in normal nasal mucosa. A case controlled study was undertaken, matching patients with SP to patients with chronic sinusitis (CS). Patients with normal nasal mucosa served as a control group. All patients had their tissues analyzed for the presence of various HPV types using polymerase chain reaction (PCR) coupled with a line blot assay. Results. A total of 168 patients were identified (74 SP, 74 CS, 20 control). Of these, 70 (41.7%) had detectable DNA, and 9/70 (12.9%) had detectable HPV of types 6, 11, and 16. None had detectable HPV type 18. Significant differences were detected in the presence of HPV in CS, SP and control groups, as well as in the presence of low risk versus high-risk types amongst investigation and control groups. Conclusions. Significant differences exist in the distribution of HPV between SP, benign nasal pathologies such as CS and normal nasal mucosa. HPV may play an important role, at least as cofactor, in the development of SP, with types 6, 11 and 16 more pivotal than other types. Line blot assay may provide a useful technique in identifying HPV in SP.

Abstract:
Introduction. Human papillomavirus (HPV) has been detected with varying frequency in oral cancers and in normal oral tissues. The main objective of the present study was to examine the association between HPV infection and risk of developing oral cancer.<br>Methodology. This investigation, as a component of an international multi-centre study coordinated by the IARC, followed a hospital-based case-control design. Cases consisted of newly diagnosed patients with primary squamous cell carcinoma of the oral cavity, including mouth and oropharynx. Controls were frequency matched to cases by sex, age, and hospital. All subjects were interviewed to elicit detail information on known and putative risk factors.<br>Oral exfoliated cells were collected from all subjects for detection of HPV DNA using the PGMY09/11 PCR protocol. Antibodies against HPV 16, 18, and 31 capsids were detected in patients' plasma using an immunoassay technique. Logistic regression was used for estimation of odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CI) of oral cancer for HPV and other candidate risk factors.<br>Results. A total of 72 cases and 129 controls were recruited. HPV DNA was detected in 19% of cases (14 out of 72), and in 5% of controls (6 out of 129). Analysis for cancers related to Waldeyer's ring (palatine tonsil and base of tongue) showed that the OR of disease for detection of high risk HPV types was 19.32 (95%CI:2.3--159.5), after adjustment for socio-demographic characteristics, tobacco and alcohol consumption. The adjusted OR of disease for HPV 16 seropositivity was 31.51 (95%CI:4.5--219.7). Analysis for non tonsillar oral cancers showed that the OR for detection of high risk HPV DNA in oral cells and for seropositivity were 2.14 (95%CI:0.4--13.0) and 3.16 (95%CI:0.8--13.0), respectively.<br>Discussion. The results from this study provide evidence supporting a strong association between HPV infection and cancers of the oropharynx, especially those arising from Waldeyer's ring. On the other hand, the association with non tonsillar oral cancers was of much lower magnitude. The biological evidence establishing a firm etiologic link remains to be established for the latter subsites, whereas the association between HPV and Waldeyer's ring carcinomas is consistent with a causal link.

Full text
Abstract:
Human brain tumours have been investigated using proton and phosphorus nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR). The localization technique, chemical shift imaging has been used to obtain phosphorus spectra of tumours in vivo. High resolution proton spectroscopy has been performed on biopsy samples and extracts of human brain tumours. To obtain the localized phosphorus spectra, one dimensional chemical shift imaging with a surface coil was adapted to a 1.5 T Siemens Magnetom imager. The ratios of areas, PDE/ATP and PME/ATP were found to be higher in glioblastomas and astrocytomas than in normal brain. Pi/ATP and PCr/ATP were also high in astrocytomas. The pH of brain tumours ranged from alkaline to neutral, with meningiomas consistently having alkaline pH. A three dimensional localization sequence was written and tested on the Magnetom and used to obtain phosphorus spectra from the brains of normal volunteers. One dimensional $\sp1$H spectra, COSY spectra and T$\sb2$ data were obtained from ex vivo biopsy samples. A parameter, P, was defined as the ratio of the area between 3.4 and 3.1. ppm over the area between 1.5 ppm and 1.1 ppm. The parameter distinguished glioblastomas from astrocytomas and normal brain. This area parameter, P, also appeared to be indicative of malignant potential or biological aggressiveness. Crosspeaks in the ex vivo proton COSY spectra of brain specimens could be used to classify glioblastomas, astrocytomas, metastases to the brain, meningiomas and normal brain in agreement with histopathological diagnosis. The T$\sb2$ values at 1.3 ppm were fitted to a two exponential equation. The longer component could be used to separate clearly glioblastomas from normal brain, normal brain having a much longer long T$\sb2$ component. Astrocytomas formed a continuum of values between glioblastomas and normal brain, with the grade of the astrocytoma roughly correlating with the value of the long T$\sb2$ component. High resolution $\sp1$H spectroscopy of perchloric acid extracts of biopsy samples was performed. The extracts confirmed that lactate, acetate, creatine and choline derivatives, NAA, glutamate, glutamine, alanine, valine and leucine were present in the samples. Comparisons of extract and ex vivo spectra indicated that the 1.3 ppm peak in the ex vivo spectra is predominantly due to the methylene moiety of lipids.

Abstract:
AbstractOsteoarthritis (OA), a progressive degenerative disease of cartilage in joints, is the most common cause of chronic disability in older adults. While OA is mostly considered an age-related pathology, women have a 1.5-fold higher risk of developing OA relative to men and experience more severe symptoms. Yet, they remain underrepresented in musculoskeletal research and clinical trials. Responsible for cartilage formation, articular chondrocytes experience physiological changes in OA, but the functional implications of such alterations remain largely unexplored due to difficulties in acquiring the data experimentally. Through reparameterization, we expand a mathematical chondrocyte model to investigate sex-specific OA pathogenesis. We performed sensitivity analysis to address the impact of ion channel activity in healthy and OA chondrocyte populations. Simulations show that in healthy female chondrocytes, the resting membrane potential is more depolarized than in healthy male chondrocytes, suggesting potential sex-specific emergent physiological differences in articular chondrocytes. In both sexes, the resting membrane potential of healthy chondrocytes is most sensitive to 𝐼𝐶𝑎−𝐴𝑇𝑃, 𝐼𝑁𝑎−𝑏, 𝐼𝑁𝑎𝐾 and 𝐼𝐾−𝑏, but in OA it depolarizes and becomes sensitive to 𝐼𝐾𝐷𝑅, 𝐼𝑁𝑎𝐾 and 𝐼𝐾−𝑏. Developed and evaluated against experimental data, our articular chondrocyte OA electrophysiological model can be used to further study OA pathology and sex-specific pathological OA changes.

Abstract:
The thermal waters have numerous medicinal advantages, highlighting their anti-inflammatory and immuno-modulatory properties, useful in the treatment of various pathologies of the respiratory, gastrointestinal, muscoloskeletal, skin, among others (Prandelli et al, 2013; Zajac, 2021; Franz et al, 2021). Several studies demonstrate the importance that this type of water presents in cardiovascular pathologies, namely in its use as protectors of the most important risk factors for the triggering of these pathologies (Laukkanen et al, 2015; Laukkanen et al, 2018). Some authors report that balneotherapy is associated with normalization of lipid profile parameters (Heinonen &amp;; Laukkanen, 2018; Esperland et al, 2022) as well as reducing susceptibility to viral infections (Kunutsor et al., 2017; Kunutsor et al., 2021). There is also the component associated with skin and the delay of aging, as demonstrated in studies in the area (Vaz et al, 2022). Of course, there are studies that demonstrate the possibility of the existence of some intercurrences, with special incidence in the cardiac area and in the psychiatric area - note, however, that the studies referred to point to the pre-existence of pathology (Zaccardi et al, 2017; Laukkanen et al 2018).

Abstract:
Health education is a pivotal component in promoting overall well-being and preventing various diseases. With the rapid advancement of technology, particularly in the field of artificial intelligence (AI), health education is undergoing a transformation. This project aims at using artificial intelligence to generate clinical cases for multidisciplinary health students on a higher education institution. A large language model (LLM) known as OpenAI's ChatGPT (Generative Pretrained Transformer; OpenAI) is proposed to generate clinical case reports in several medical areas. For a more realistic insight about the reports, Fotor (an online platform for photo editing) was used to provide AI-generated images of each patient. By means of this AI tool, it is possible to generate clinical case reports containing the following information: patient’s main sociodemographic data, main complaint pathology (clinical diagnosis), history of previous illness etc. Further research aims at assessing quality and applicability of these data for health students.

Abstract:
Aim/Purpose: [This Proceedings paper was revised and published in the 2018 issue of the journal Issues in Informing Science and Information Technology, Volume 15] The aim of this study was to concept test a novel instructional aid called Virtual Pathology Learning Resource (VPLR), which was used as a vehicle to communicate information, and enhance teaching and learning of basic sciences (Anatomy, Physiology and Pathology) to allied health science students at a South Australian university. Background: Pathology was traditionally taught using potted specimens to independently review macroscopic features of disease. However, this approach alone was found inadequate and ineffective. For one, the potted specimens were not easily accessible for all students. VPLR is a new teaching platform comprising of digitised human normal and human pathology specimens (histology, histopathology), patient case studies, short answer and critical thinking questions, and self-assessment quizzes. Using authentic learning theory as an educational approach, this learning resource was developed to enhance the teaching and learning of Pathology. Methodology: A cross-sectional study design was used. A survey, administered at the conclusion of the course, gathered qualitative and quantitative data concerning the perceptions and experiences of the students about VPLR. The online tool SurveyMonkey was utilised so that students could respond anonymously to a web link that displayed the questionnaire. The effectiveness of the program and its perceived impact on students was assessed using a 18-item questionnaire seeking agreement or disagreement with statements about VPLR, and open-ended questions querying the best things about VPLR, benefits to be derived, and areas for improvement. Descriptive and frequency analyses were performed. Contribution: The VPLR approach involved rich learning situations, contextualised content, and facilitated greater understanding of disease concepts and problems. Findings: In a sample of 103 Medical Radiation students, 42% of students (N=43) responded to the post-intervention survey. The majority of students reported highly positive effects for each component of the VPLR. The overall results indicated that this tool was an effective strategy in teaching Pathology as it assisted students' gaining knowledge and developing professional imaging skills. Recommendations for Practitioners: As students found VLPR to be beneficial, it is recommended that the same approach be applied for teaching of Pathology to other allied health students, such as Nursing. Other universities might consider adopting this innovation for their courses. Recommendation for Researchers: Applying VPLR to other allied health science students will be undertaken next. This innovation will be appropriate for other health science students with particular emphasis on case-based or problem-based learning, and combined with clinical experiences. Impact on Society: In reshaping the way of teaching a science course, students are benefited by a greater depth of understanding of content, and increase motivation with study. These are important to keep students engaged and prepared for practice. VPLR may impact on education and technology trends so that continuous exploration and possibilities of initiatives are ongoing to help students be successful learners. Other impacts are the new forms of learning discovered, and the renewed focus on group work and collaboration and the use of technology in innovation. Future Research: Future directions of this research would be to conduct a follow-up of this cohort of students to determine if the impacts of the innovation were durable, that means the change in perceptions and behaviour are sustained over time.

Abstract:
Introduction: Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection is often preceded or accompanied by neuropsychiatric symptoms, including depression. This fact has been evaluated in most of the clinical studies to date as associated with HIV infection already diagnosed. Case report: We report a case of a 46-year-old woman patient with no prior diagnosed pathology, suffering from depressive disorder for roughly 6 months, with a progressive evolution under treatment. Blood tests showed a moderate normochromic normocytic anemic syndrome of unspecified origin. Given the fact that depressive syndrome has not improved under treatment, a cerebral computed tomography (CT) scan and a cerebral magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) are decided, revealing an expansive cerebral process which in turn recommends performing stereotactic biopsy, but the family of the patient refuses the procedure. The patient is neurologically evaluated and after considering the cerebral MRI pattern and the presence of anemia, an HIV and syphilis detection test is decided, revealing a positive result for HIV infection. An antiretroviral therapy has been initiated, resulting in favorable clinical and imaging outcomes. Conclusions: Each patient and each case are individual and is to be approached as such. Depression in a progressive evolution under treatment requires imaging evaluation (cerebral CT scan, ideally cerebral MRI).

Abstract:
Due to the multifactorial impact of the working and environmental environment and the labor process on the body of drivers, the identification of priority pathology in order to preserve high visual functions is an important task to preserve human resources and ensure transport safety. The study of the structure of diseases of the eye and its accessory apparatus, as well as priority forms of somatic pathology, was carried out through a retrospective analysis of 4,240 outpatient records of professional drivers of vehicles of all categories who underwent periodic medical examination (PME) at the clinic of the Izmerov Research Institute of Occupational Health in 2020‑2022. Among the surveyed drivers, 32.1% suffer from obesity, arterial hypertension and essential hypertension established were diagnosed in 1.3 and 16.6% of drivers, respectively; diabetes mellitus — in 2.7%; сardiac ischemia — in 0.9%. The structure of the pathology of the organ of vision of employees of a transport enterprise was determined based on the results of periodic medical examinations in 2021‑2022: 76.8% of drivers of vehicles of various categories have a pathology of the organ of vision; the leading group of ophthalmic pathologies are refractive errors, among which hyperopia and hyperopic astigmatism prevail (28.9% of the number of drivers); there was a trend for a significant increase in cases of hyperopic refraction after 40 years; the proportion of workers with a refractive error or a combination of them in the group of drivers is higher than in the general structure of all cases of completed medical examination.

Abstract:
The trends in the development of education include the trend of informatization of education and the trend of innovative education.&#x0D; In forensic medicine, the competence to learn to cognize compulsorily includes understanding of general pathological processes, and only through this prism should the ability to verify particular pathological changes occurring in the human body as a result of various types of injuries and diseases arise.&#x0D; To implement these trends, we use distance educational technologies, taking into account the following criteria: for an individual trajectory of professional formation and development of a cadet doctor; for the development of thinking in the process of professional development; of objectivity; of productive communication; of information support for the co-creation of teachers and cadets; feedback. In order to apply the indicated criteria in full, the process of perception and processing of visual information was divided into three stages. The first stage is the analysis of the structure of the information supplied. At the second stage, new images are created. The third stage is a search activity. The above-described structuring of the content of educational information and the principles of organizing the educational process using distance educational technologies have successfully taught doctors of forensic experts to apply knowledge of general human pathology in the production of examinations.

Abstract:
Diabetes is a disease with high prevalence worldwide, however, about 44% of patients are asymptomatic, which leads to a later diagnosis of the disease and, consequently, increases the risk of developing complications. The development of new approaches for early diagnosis is imperative to allow proper adoption of preventive measures. From a motivational point of view, it is easier for patients to adopt healthy eating habits and lifestyles when there is an altered marker that indicates subclinical disease, particularly in a pathology that remains asymptomatic until advanced stages. Thus, timely diagnosis based on a measurable and monitorable indicator is extremely important so that such behaviors are implemented as early as possible, increasing effective health gains and reducing the costs related to this pathology. Pre-clinical studies in animal models have shown that the etiology of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is related to alterations in the carotid bodies (CB), chemosensory organs located in the bifurcation of the carotid arteries. In animals with T2DM it has been observed that the CBs are overactivated causing an increased heart rate, respiratory rate, and blood glucose levels. In humans, this mechanism has been confirmed but is not yet well-characterized. This paper highlights the importance of developing a device that allows early detection of changes in CB activity correlating it with emerging diabetes. The design strategies to prototype the CBmeter were to model and characterize the features of interest for the diagnosis- respiratory rate, heart rate, peripheral oxygen saturation and glucose - in healthy people and people with diabetes using a combination of set commercial sensors pre-existent in the market that were integrated to collect real-time data. After determining health and disease patterns, the CBmeter development pipeline includes a co-design approach in which physiologists, endocrinologists, nurses, computer and electrical engineers, designers and patients are collaborating to develop an easy-to-use, portable, and minimally invasive medical device that associates CB function with endocrine dysregulation, with very small discomfort and risk for users. The definition and specification of the most appropriate architecture for the CBmeter, in order to allow its modularity, signal acquisition and consequently the communication between the sensor/device and the receiver/backend in the most efficient way is being allied to the selection of materials, tools and steps to create an innovative product, that will fill a technical gap in the market, designed for the early diagnosis of metabolic diseases, in a subclinical phase, with the potential to contribute with significant gains for public health in the medium/long term.
