LYMPHATIC SYSTEM AND IMMUNITY.
Antigens are chemicals on the surface of a cell. All cells have these. The immune system checks cells and identifies them as self or non-self. Antibodies are proteins produced by certain lymphocytes in response to a specific antigen.B-lymphocytes and T-lymphocytes produce the antibodies. B-lymphocytes become plasma cells which then generate antibodies. T-lymphocytes attack cells which bear antigens they recognize.he immune system checks cells and identifies them as self or non-self.

The difference in the terminal sugars for Type A and Type B antigens is sufficient for the immune system to recognize these molecules as foreign. It is important to note that type O blood (the presence of the H-antigen) is not recognized as foreign by the immune system since all three molecules share that common base.he Antigens (agglutinogens): The different blood types in the ABO system arise from the existence of similar molecules on the RBC membrane (see Figure 1). In each type (A, B, or O), the base unit is the same-a protein with a lipid known as ceramide associated with it.

Antibody
Activated B cells differentiate into either antibody-producing cells called plasma cells that secrete soluble antibody or memory cells that survive in the body for years afterward in order to allow the immune system to remember an antigen and respond faster upon future exposures.sing this binding mechanism, an antibody can tag a microbe or an infected cell for attack by other parts of the immune system, or can neutralize its target directly (for example, by blocking a part of a microbe that is essential for its invasion and survival).

There are no age limitations or income requirements for establishing a Traditional IRA for the purpose of receiving assets transferred from another Traditional, SEP or SIMPLE IRA, or for the purpose of a rollover from a qualified plan, 403(b), or governmental 457(b) plan. Compensation Defined.


I No Longer Qualify for a Roth IRA â Now What?
If you have any other IRA money (including Rollover IRAs and SEP-IRAs) this will be taken into account in a tax calculation that has to do with the IRS Aggregation rule, so you usually want to see if you can move this money into a 401(k) if possible to avoid this rule.


I No Longer Qualify for a Roth IRA â Now What?
This strategy only makes sense after you are already maxing out your 401(k) (and your spouseâs work retirement plan if applicable). There is a way to indirectly contribute to a Roth IRA. Open up and contribute to a traditional IRA, and then convert it to a Roth IRA after holding the funds for one year.


Publication 550 (2016), Investment Income and Expenses
The following sources of income are examples of compensation that are not eligible to be used for contributing to a Traditional IRA: 1  Rental income or other profits from property. 2  Income from interest and dividends. 3  Pension or annuity income.  Deferred 1  compensation. Income from some partnerships.  Income or amounts that can be excluded from income.


I No Longer Qualify for a Roth IRA â Now What?
The money in a Roth 401(k) grows tax free and when you withdraw it in retirement you wonât pay taxes on it since it was funded with after-tax dollars, just like a Roth IRA. The nice thing about the Roth 401(k)s is that there arenât the same income restrictions that there are on Roth IRAs.

Roth IRA contribution limits. The contribution limit for a Roth IRA is $5,500 ($6,500 for those 50 or older). But the IRS also sets income eligibility rules for the Roth IRA each year. These limits are based on modified adjusted gross income and first phase out the Roth IRA contribution limit before eliminating the ability to contribute altogether.


IRA Contributions: Deductions and Tax Credits
You are eligible for only a partial deduction on your Traditional IRA. Instead of contributing the nondeductible amount to a Traditional IRA, where earnings grow tax-deferred, you can contribute the amount to a Roth IRA where earnings grow tax-free. You are eligible for only a partial Roth-IRA contribution.


IRA Contributions: Deductions and Tax Credits
If your Traditional IRA contribution is not deductible, you may still make a non-deductible IRA contribution to it. Alternatively, you may contribute to a Roth IRA, provided your MAGI satisfies the Roth-IRA eligibility limits for 2013, which are as follows:


IRA Contributions: Deductions and Tax Credits
The primary benefits of contributing to an IRA are the tax deductions, the tax-deferred or tax-free growth on earnings and, if you are eligible, the non-refundable tax credits. To get the most out of contributing to your IRA, it's important to understand what these benefits mean and the limitations placed on them.

If the property has been depreciated, the recapture of depreciation is ordinary income, with any gain in excess of depreciation recapture considered a capital gain.For instance.231 property does not include assets held for resale, such as inventory. Section 1231 tax effects provide the best of both worlds from a taxation standpoint-losses are ordinary losses and gains are considered capital gains.

When you go for a physical and the doctor takes out blood and urine, do they check for pregnancy ?
Responses (1) It depends. If it is just a general physical, probably not. They will tell you what they are testing for if you ask. Usually they will just check a complete blood count so things like red and white blood cells, hemoglobin, hematocrit-things like that. They also usually do a metabolic panel which shows your electrolytes (sodium, potassium etc) and your blood glucose and your cholesterol levels. The urine is usually just for a general urinalysis.

Asbestos and Emphysema
Asbestos and Emphysema. Emphysema is a progressive lung condition that prevents lung tissue from holding its shape and decreases function, causing severe shortness of breath. Small air sacs in the lungs, called alveoli, normally transfer oxygen to the blood. Emphysema occurs when the walls of these air sacs break down, making the alveoli bigger and less able to transfer oxygen. The condition is part of a larger category of chronic obstructive pulmonary diseases, or COPD.


Asbestos Related Diseases
Pulmonary Hypertension and Asbestos. Pulmonary hypertension is high blood pressure in the arteries that connect the heart to the lungs. It can be caused by a blockage such as a clot or the growths associated with coronary artery disease.

Overview
For some, the physical pain and emotional stress are severe enough to affect their daily lives. Regardless of symptom severity, the signs and symptoms generally disappear within four days of the start of the menstrual period for most women. But a small number of women with premenstrual syndrome have disabling symptoms every month. This form of PMS is called premenstrual dysphoric disorder (PMDD). PMDD signs and symptoms include depression, mood swings, anger, anxiety, feeling overwhelmed, difficulty concentrating, irritability and tension.


Premenstrual Syndrome
A healthy lifestyle is the first step to managing PMS. For many women, lifestyle approaches are often enough to control symptoms. 1  Drink plenty of fluids (water or juice, not soft drinks, alcohol, or other beverages with caffeine) to help reduce bloating, fluid retention, and other symptoms.  Eat frequent, small meals.


Slideshow: A Visual Guide to Premenstrual Syndrome (PMS)
The exact cause of PMS is not clear, but we do know that levels of estrogen and progesterone drop during the week before your period. Many doctors believe this decline in hormone levels triggers the symptoms of PMS. Changes in brain chemicals or deficiencies in certain vitamins and minerals may also play a role.


PMS (Premenstrual Syndrome)
The average womanâs menstrual cycle lasts 28 days. Ovulation (when an egg is released from the ovaries) occurs on day 14 of the cycle. Menstruation (bleeding) occurs on day 28 of the cycle. PMS symptoms can begin around day 14 and last until seven days after the start of menstruation.

Symptoms of PMS: Acne. Acne is one of the most common signs of PMS, and it doesn't just affect teenagers. Hormonal changes can cause glands in the skin to produce more sebum. This oily substance may clog the pores, triggering a breakout -- a visible reminder that your period is on its way.


PMS (Premenstrual Syndrome)
Premenstrual syndrome (PMS) is a condition that affects a womanâs emotions, physical health, and behavior during certain days of the menstrual cycle, generally just before her menses. PMS symptoms start five to 11 days before menstruation and typically go away once menstruation begins. The cause of PMS is unknown. However, many researchers believe that a change in hormone levels at the beginning of the menstrual cycle may be to blame. Levels of estrogen and progesterone increase during certain times of the month. An increase in these hormones can cause mood swings, anxiety, and irritability.


Ease constipation during your period
The few days leading up to your period is usually when you may suffer with one or several PMS symptoms such as abdominal pain or cramps, diarrhoea, bloating, headaches, increased appetite or weight gain from fluid retention as well as constipation.

Symptoms of PMS: Mood Swings. For many women, the worst part of PMS is its unpredictable impact on mood. Irritability, anger, crying spells, depression, and anxiety may come and go in the days leading up to your period. Some women even have trouble with memory and concentration during this time.


Premenstrual Syndrome
The exact cause of PMS is not known. Changes in brain hormone levels may play a role, but this has not been proven. Women with premenstrual syndrome may also respond differently to these hormones. PMS may be related to social, cultural, biological, and psychological factors. Up to 3 out of every 4 women experience PMS symptoms during their childbearing years. PMS occurs more often in women:

Board Certified Behavior Analyst (BCBA) Coursework Requirements Students wishing to pursue certification as a Board Certified Behavior Analyst (BCBA) through the BACB must apply for and be accepted into the Behavioral Intervention in Autism Certificate Program and successfully complete the indicated coursework.


Applied behavior analysis
While ABA seems to be intrinsically linked to autism intervention, it is also used for applied animal behavior and clinical behavior analysis, in behavioral medicine, behavioral neuroscience, and criminology, to increase job safety and performance, counteract phobias, and improve classroom management.


Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA)
Applied behavior analysis (ABA) is the use of these techniques and principles to bring about meaningful and positive change in behavior. As mentioned, behavior analysts began working with young children with autism and related disorders in the 1960s. Early techniques often involved adults directing most of the instruction.


Applied behavior analysis
Each instance of behavior occurs at a specific point in timeâi.e., when the behavior occurs. 1  Response latency is the measure of elapsed time between the onset of a stimulus and the initiation of the response. 2  Interresponse time is the amount of time that occurs between two consecutive instances of a response class.

PPE: Respirator Usage and Safety. A respirator is a personal protective device that is worn on the face. It covers the nose and mouth and is specifically designed to provide respiratory protection by forming a tight seal against the wearerâs skin. Respirators vary in their level of protection and efficiency to filter out airborne particles.


Atmosphere-Supplying Respirators
MUC is determined by the assigned protection factor of the respirator or class of respirators and the exposure limit of the hazardous substance. Within atmosphere-supplying respirators, APFs can range from 10, for a SAR operated in the demand mode, all the way up to 10,000 for SCBAs.


-
December 1, 2013 - One question I always ask trainees when discussing personal protective equipment (PPE) during OSHA 10 hour training classes is whether or not OSHA considers a dust mask to be a respirator. It has been my experience that the vast majority of students in most classes answer âno, it is notâ.


-
Lets look at the various types of respirators available. Each type protects against different hazards at different levels. The appropriate respirator chosen for use will depend on the anticipated airborne risk for the responder. It is important to select the right respirator for a specific job.


Atmosphere-Supplying Respirators
Basic SARs and combination atmosphere-supplying respirators are similar in that the wearer is tethered by an air supply hose to the supply of breathing air. Where these two styles differ is in the additional level of protection offered in the combination style respirators.


-
In-facepiece dust concentration is changed dozens of times in a matter of minutes due to changes of the size of the gaps between the mask and face. A respirator is a device designed to protect the wearer from inhaling particulate matter, including airborne microrganisms, fumes, vapors, i.e. gases.


-
So, to recap; the use of any type of respirator, including a dust mask, that is mandatory because of employer requirements or because of worker exposure to a respiratory hazard exceeds OSHA PELâs would require the employer to implement all of the elements of a full respiratory protection program.


-
But if you are still in denial, read this OSHA letter of interpretation about the use of dust masks. What this means is that all applicable rules in the OSHA respiratory protection standard that apply to the use of respirators would apply to dust masks; with âapplicableâ being the operative term here.

Flap Procedure for Gum Disease

-
Bite firmly but gently on the gauze pad placed by your dentist to reduce bleeding and allow a clot to form in the tooth socket. Change gauze pads before they become soaked with blood. Otherwise, leave the pad in place for three to four hours after the extraction.


How to Quickly Stop Bleeding from Tooth Extraction
Be careful not to dislodge the blood clot when brushing near the extraction site for 3-4 days. You can carefully wipe the area with a clean, wet gauze pad. If you canât get a toothbrush into your mouth due to swelling or discomfort (after wisdom tooth removal), chlorhexidine mouthwash (see above) is a handy adjunct.

Getting Your Wisdom Teeth Out: Five Things Everyone Should Know
Getting your wisdom teeth out is a pretty common occurrence; many people have the surgery as teenagers or young adults. That being said, it is still a major procedure that requires a decent amount of recovery time. So before you head to your appointment, here are five key things everybody should know before the extraction. Bring a Buddy.


What to Do When Your Young Child Needs Teeth Pulled
There are many reasons your child could need baby teeth pulled, including accidental trauma, cavities, and stubborn baby teeth blocking adult teeth from coming in properly. Here are a few guidelines to help your child (and you!) get through an unpleasant procedure with a minimum of pain and fuss.


What Happens If You Donât Get Your Wisdom Teeth Removed?
Wisdom teeth are often removed because they either donât fully erupt from the gums or donât erupt at all. A partially erupted wisdom tooth can lead to bacterial infection called pericoronitis. Meanwhile, a wisdom tooth that doesnât erupt can lead to the development of a cyst which can damage bone and gum tissue. Wisdom teeth are also often removed because they come in crooked. A crooked wisdom tooth can permanently damage adjacent teeth and throw off your biteâs alignment. Wisdom tooth removal usually only requires a single appointment and follow up, and recovery typically lasts for a few days.


How to Quickly Stop Bleeding from Tooth Extraction
Donâts: 1  Donât be tempted to rinse the area for 24 hours after tooth removal. 2  Avoid hot food or drinks until the numbing wears off. 3  Donât poke at the extraction site! â keep your fingers and tongue away from this area.  Avoid sucking (ahemâ¦ through straws and stuff), spitting, and blowing your nose (unless you have to).

Prescription Drug Withdrawal Can Be Disastrous. Starting a new medicine is easy. Stopping can be hell. Mention the word âwithdrawalâ and images of dope addicts or alcoholics come to mind: a junkie trying to kick a heroin habit or a wino going through the hallucinations and shakes of delirium tremens.


Withdrawing from Opiates and Opioids
If you become physically sick after you stop taking an opiate medication, it may be an indication that youâre physically dependent on the substance. Withdrawal symptoms are the bodyâs physical response to the absence of the drug. Many people become dependent on these drugs in order to avoid pain or withdrawal symptoms.


Avoid Withdrawal Symptoms From Prescription Painkillers
But even if youâve been taking opioids for months and even years, it can be hard to stop without suffering withdrawal symptoms such as worsened pain, severe stomach upset, muscle aches, flu-like symptoms, anxiety, depression, and sleeplessness.


Prescription Drug Withdrawal Symptoms and Signs
Prescription Drug Withdrawal Symptoms and Signs. Prescription drug withdrawal and abuse are less visible problems than those related to abuse of illegal drugs. Because prescription drug abuse frequently begins with a legitimate prescription, it is not unusual that people who would never buy street drugs suffer from addiction to prescription drugs.


Prescription Drug Withdrawal Symptoms and Signs
Sometimes people feel shame because of withdrawal; however, withdrawal symptoms are the result of a biological process, and have nothing to do with morality. For help overcoming prescription drug addiction, call 1-888-935-1318. Drug dependence happens when your body becomes accustomed to the presence of a substance.


Avoid Withdrawal Symptoms From Prescription Painkillers
Plus, people become physically dependent on the opioid painkillers, so stopping abruptly can trigger withdrawal symptoms. âPatients feel trapped,â he says. The good news is that people can typically avoid severe withdrawal symptoms by working with their doctors to gradually reduce their dose.


Learn About ABA Numbers: Where to Find Them and How They Work
However, if youâre curious, there is a fascinating system behind ABA numbers. The ABA number is like an address that tells everybody where to find your account. ABA numbers are also known as routing transit numbers (RTNs). âABAâ is used because the American Bankers Association (ABA) assigns the numbers to banks. The numbers are generally printed on checks using magnetic ink, which allows special machines to read the code more easily.

Functional Brain Imaging
The purpose of this review is to investigate the clinical utility of functional brain imaging in patients with AD, brain tumours, epilepsy, MS, or Parkinsonâs disease. Because the focus is on clinical utility, the added clinical information that would be provided by Level 1 studies (i.e., studies of technical feasibility) is limited.

Another imaging process called diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) uses a regular MRI machine to track how water molecules move in and around the fibers connecting different parts of the brain. DTI gauges the thickness and density of the brain's connections.


Brain Function
Brain Function and Deficits. In traumatic brain injury the brain may be injured in a specific location or the injury may be diffused to many different parts of the brain. It is this indefinite nature of brain injury that makes treatment unique for each individual patient. In the past twenty years, a great deal has been learned about brain function, and we learn more everyday. We can make guesses about the nature of the problems an individual may have from knowing the location of a lesion. Diagnostic procedures such as CT scans and MRI's can also provide information about a brain injury. As rehabilitation specialists, however, we can also learn about an injury by observing the day to day activities of the patient.


What is fMRI?
The MR image is a map of the distribution of the MR signal, and by manipulating the timing of the RF pulses and the delays before detecting the signal MRI is a sensitive tool for detecting subtle changes in brain anatomy. However, mapping brain structure is not the same as mapping brain function.


-
The purpose of structural imaging is to visualize the various structures of the brain and any physical abnormalities that may affect them (such as tumours, bleeding, blood clots, or birth deformities). The purpose of functional imaging is to measure activity in certain parts of the brain while it performs certain tasks. Functional imaging is used chiefly in fundamental research, to improve our understanding of the various structures of the human brain. But functional imaging is also used to diagnose the foci of epileptic seizures, as well as to identify, prior to brain surgery, parts of the brain that perform essential functions and must be kept intact no matter what.


Brain Imaging Techniques
Brain MRI: MRI brain scan (in the axial planeâthat is, slicing from front-to-back and side-to-side through the head) showing a brain tumor at the bottom right. The fMRI is a series of MRIs that measures both the structure and the functional activity of the brain through computer adaptation of multiple images.


What is Functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (fMRI)?
~ 3 min read. Functional magnetic resonance imaging, or fMRI, is a technique for measuring brain activity. It works by detecting the changes in blood oxygenation and flow that occur in response to neural activity â when a brain area is more active it consumes more oxygen and to meet this increased demand blood flow increases to the active area.

leading to a more precise understanding of the disease process and then to. development of a more highly specific drug to treat it. Different types of imaging are used to reveal brain structure (anatomy), physiology (functions), and biochemical actions of individual cells and of the. molecules that compose them, and of cellsâ functions, behaviors and. interactions.


Types of Brain Scans
Scanning techniques include: 1  Computed Tomography (CT): This scan combines an x-ray-type device with a computer. 2  Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI): The MRI scanner is a tunnel-shaped piece of equipment. 3  Flow-Sensitive MRI (FS MRI): This type of combines functional MRI with images of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) flow.


What's the sense and the benefit of auto-encoder algorithm?
I have been studying auto-encoders in this period. If I understood correctly, an auto-encoder is a neural network where the input layer is identical to the output layer. So, the neural network tries to predict the output using the input as golden standard. I read a bunch of documents about this, and also watched some video clips, but I cannot understand this concept...

2.1 Auto-Encoder We recall the basic principles of auto-encoder models, e.g., [2]. An auto-encoder takesaninputx âRd andï¬rstmapsittothelatentrepresentationh âRd using a deterministic function of the type h = fÎ¸ = Ï(Wx+b) with parameters Î¸ = {W,b}. This âcodeâ is then used to reconstruct the input by a reverse mapping


Credit card fraud detection 1 â using auto-encoder in TensorFlow
Auto-encoder What is an auto-encoder? Auto-encoder is one type of neural networks that approximates the function: f(x) = x. Basically, given an input x, network will learn to output f(x) that is as close as to x. The error between output and x is commonly measured using root mean square error (RMSE) â mean((f(x) â x) ^ 2) â which is the loss function we try to minimise in our network.

The variational auto-encoder
The variational auto-encoder. In this chapter, we are going to use various ideas that we have learned in the class in order to present a very influential recent probabilistic model called the variational autoencoder. Variational autoencoders (VAEs) are a deep learning technique for learning latent representations.


What is the difference between convolutional neural networks, restricted Boltzmann machines, and auto-encoders?
An autoencoder is a neural network that is trained in an unsupervised fashion. The goal of an autoencoder is to find a more compact representation of the data by learning an encoder, which transforms the data to their corresponding compact representation, and a decoder, which reconstructs the original data.

Ectopia Cordis
Ectopia Cordis is an extremely rare birth disorder. The heart which normally is protected by the rib case is abnormally located. This defect usually occurs during foetal development and the baby born with Ectopia Cordis will have a misplaced heart. The heart may protrude outside the body through a partially developed sternum. In extremely rare cases, the heart is located in the neck or in the abdominal cavity.

No offense meant, but if a cordis is in a patient that is even semi-stable and on the floor, then it needs to be D/C'd ASAP. There is no indication for these in stable patients. If they need a central line, then fine, insert a TLC or QLC over the wire and pull the cordis regardless.


Cold Agglutinin Disease
Cold agglutinin disease is a rare form of autoimmune hemolytic anemia caused by cold-reacting autoantibodies. Autoantibodies that bind to the erythrocyte membrane leading to premature erythrocyte destruction (hemolysis) characterize autoimmune hemolytic anemia.


Cold Agglutinin Disease
In cold agglutinin disease, the antibody is an IgM, usually monoclonal, with kappa (Îº) or lambda (Î») light chains. In chronic cold agglutinin disease, the antibody is usually directed against the I antigen on the membrane of normal adult RBCs.


Cold agglutinin disease
Cold agglutinin disease. Cold agglutination - at body temperature, the antibodies do not attach to the red blood cells. At lower temperatures, however, the antibodies react to Ii antigens, bringing the red blood cells together, a process known as agglutination.


Cold Agglutinin Disease
Primary cold agglutinin disease is usually associated with monoclonal cold-reacting autoantibodies. Primary cold agglutinin disease is chronic and occurs after the fifth decade of life, with a peak incidence in the seventh and eighth decades. (See Epidemiology.) Secondary cold agglutinin disease may be associated with either monoclonal or polyclonal cold-reacting autoantibodies.


Cold Agglutinin Disease
In 90% of cases, the autoantibody in cold agglutinin disease is immunoglobulin M (IgM); rarely, it may involve monoclonal immunoglobulin G (IgG), immunoglobulin A (IgA), or Î» light chain restriction.


Cold agglutinin disease
Cold agglutinin disease is a rare and poorly understood disorder affecting 15% of patients with autoimmune hemolytic anemia. We reviewed the clinical and pathologic features, prognosis, and management in the literature and describe our institutional experience to improve strategies for accurate diagnosis and treatment. Retrospective analysis identified 89 patients from our institution with cold agglutinin disease from 1970 through 2012. Median age at symptom onset was 65 years (range, 41 to 83 years), whereas the median age at diagnosis was 72 years (range, 43 to 91 years).

If I have elevated cold agglutinins, is there anything I can do to make them go away or decrease them? This is something that your doctor will need to determine. Consult your health care provider on what steps can be taken to decrease cold agglutinins.


-
What can I do to avoid the symptoms of cold agglutinin disease? To minimize episodes of painful discolored fingers and toes, and of abnormal red blood cell destruction (hemolysis), it is important to avoid and/or limit exposure to cold temperatures. People have differing sensitivities; some may be affected by drinking or eating something cold or by taking a cold shower.
