Trichomoniasis negligence
Vaginal discharge constitutes an important symptom in women attending outpatient clinics of RTI/STI, Medicine and Obs & Gyne. Some of these cases are due to sexually transmitted diseases like such as N. gonorrheae, C. trachomatis and T. vaginalis and can lead to adverse reproductive health and co-infection with HIV. The control of these infections can lead to substantial reduction in the transmission of HIV. Given the high cost of diagnosis, National Aids Control Organization advocates syndromic case management of patients with genitourinary complaints and treatment with drugs that target the most frequent etiological agents. However, it can lead to emergence of antibiotic resistant strains due to overtreatment. The utility of syndromic case management (SCM) is not as good in the treatment of vaginal discharge syndrome due to its limitations of distinction between cervicitis and vaginitis. The narrative of this book critically appraises the syndromic approach to trichomoniasis and other STIs, discusses the challenges that it faces, and offers suggestions to improve its performance.

Appendicitis
Appendicitis involves inflammation of the vermiform appendix, which is associated with a systemic inflammatory response in humans. Emergency surgical treatment is often necessary as it is the leading cause of surgery-related mortality. However, correct diagnosis remains a challenge due to variations in symptoms. This study assessed the impact of gender, seasonal variations, and the immunohistochemical expression of the IL 6 and 8 cytokines in patients with appendicitis at the Federal Medical Centre (FMC), Yenagoa. A total of 313 patients diagnosed with appendicitis and did appendicectomy were enrolled in the research from January 2015 to December 2020. The findings indicate that seasonal changes influence the outcome of appendicitis, with a statistically significant rise in cases reported during summer in comparison to winter. Among the studied subjects, females constituted a higher percentage than males, making up 56.9% (n=178) while males represented 43.1% (n = 135). Interleukins 6 and 8 were markedly expressed in appendix tissues regardless of age, gender, or season.

Haridra - Environment
Ayurveda maintains 3 essential humours, which cause disease if they become imbalanced. These three humours known as 'Vata', 'Pita', and 'Kapha' are usually translated in English as Wind, Bile and Phlegm. Occasionally, in the surgical tradition, a fourth humour - blood - was added. Surgery and physical Ayurveda became two separate traditions; surgery being more important amongst the Buddhists, who for one reason or another are less hung up about ritual purity and contact with taboo bodily products such as blood. Ayurveda is an Ancient Indian medicine, which has its beginning in the sixth century BC and thrives even to the present-day. There was once a celebrated doctor called Charaka who lived in the second century. He was one of the greatest physicians who have ever lived. He recorded the fact that the Gods themselves were perplexed by the continued existence of disease, which was a hindrance to humanity's progress to enlightenment. These same Gods, he says, therefore prepared the way for Ayurveda, which literally means the 'science of longevity' to be taught to the human race. Ayurveda is not just the science of curing diseases, but of preventing them too by developing immunity.

Women in Medicine
In telling the history of women in medicine, the pioneers (especially the turbulent ones) are rightly remembered and celebrated in books, articles, memorials, awards, names of buildings, and organizations - even in stone statues and memorials. In contrast, the generation who began the transition from minority status to the current numerical equity are seldom memorialized, yet without the efforts of these few determined women in what was unambiguously a male profession, the achievements of these pioneers could easily have withered.This book is written to celebrate this unique generation of women who entered medicine between the Second World War and the early 1970s - determined women who just wanted to be doctors but ended up fundamentally changing the profession. Utilizing oral histories from 37 women who became physicians between 1948 and 1975, these women tell their stories in their own words and provide a valid picture of their experiences throughout their careers that has much resonance for those entering or practicing medicine today. Women in Medicine: Stories from the Girls in White will be of interest to all health professionals or those considering entering health professions, particularly women, and their advisers and supporters, to medical educators, and to medical historians seeking to understand the progress of women in medicine and other professions since the end of WWII.
Oxford Handbook of Medical Education in Practice 3rd Edition
The Oxford Handbook of Medical Education is a practical, easy-to-read guide on medical education for busy doctors and healthcare professionals. Tailored for medical practitioners at all levels who wish to engage in education but may lack the time or expertise for in-depth research, this handbook offers practical advice alongside case studies and scenarios based on experts' educational experiences. The chapters have been designed to follow an easy-to-navigate structure and can be read in isolation or sequentially as part of a broader, more comprehensive exploration of the field of medical education. The handbook contains the accessible features you would expect from the Oxford Medical Handbook series, including lists, tables, figures, and pop-out boxes. It is a portable guide, quickly referenced and applied, particularly when teaching opportunities arise spontaneously. Drawing on the expertise of experienced scholars and educators internationally, and across stages of their educational and academic careers, this comprehensive volume offers advice within the key domains of medical education. These include: curriculum design, assessment, learning strategies, clinical teaching, educational theory, and the integration of technology. In addition to its focus on educational practice, this handbook should also appeal to those exploring medical education research for the first time, either as readers of research, or researchers themselves, given the inclusion of content on conducting medical education research. In sum, by synthesising foundational research and practical wisdom, the Oxford Handbook of Medical Education offers readers an opportunity to develop their understanding of the principles and practices that shape contemporary medical education. In doing so, we hope readers will feel empowered to make evidence- and experience-based changes to their educational practice to improve learners' and patients' experiences of education and care.
Do Less Harm
Offers reflections, provocative questions, and practical strategies for ethical, responsible approaches to health history.In Do Less Harm, editors Courtney E. Thompson and Kylie M. Smith bring together a group of leading historians and scholars to confront one of the most pressing questions in health history: How can we ethically approach stories of medicine and health without perpetuating harm? This thought-provoking collection invites readers into a crucial conversation about the responsibilities of historians when documenting the past. Through carefully curated essays, the contributors explore the ethical dilemmas that arise in researching, teaching, and writing about the history of health care. From patient privacy to the politics of archives, the essays cover how health histories have often overlooked, misunderstood, or misrepresented the people and communities most affected by medical practices. The contributors challenge the assumptions of the field, offering a more thoughtful approach to historical research--one that emphasizes empathy, accountability, and inclusivity. The book raises provocative questions and proposes practical strategies for historians and scholars to do less harm in their work and is organized around key themes such as research, teaching, writing, and public engagement, making it an indispensable resource for anyone working in the history of health care, ethics, or the health humanities. With its engaging style and accessible insights, Do Less Harm offers a fresh and timely perspective for academics, students, and readers interested in the ethical challenges of representing the past.
