Long-term Depression01:03

Long-term Depression

2.9K
Long-term depression, or LTD, is one of the ways by which synaptic plasticity—changes in the strength of chemical synapses—can occur in the brain. LTD is the process of synaptic weakening that occurs over time between pre and postsynaptic neuronal connections. The synaptic weakening of LTD works in opposition to synaptic strengthening by long-term potentiation (LTP) and together are the main mechanisms that underlie learning and memory.

Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms-SNPs

17.7K
A single nucleotide polymorphism or SNP is a single nucleotide variation at a specific genomic position in a large population. It is the most prevalent type of sequence variation found in the human genome. Point mutations that occur in more than 1% of the population qualify as SNPs. These are present once every 1000 nucleotides on an average in the human genome. Replacement of a purine with another purine (A/G) or a pyrimidine with another pyrimidine (C/T) is known as a transition. In contrast,...

Depression: Overview

650
Depression is a prevalent mental illness marked by persistent sadness and lack of interest in previously enjoyable activities. It can take several forms, including major depression, persistent depressive disorder, and bipolar I and II disorders. Symptoms range from emotional changes like chronic worry to physical changes like sleep disturbances and suicidal thoughts. From a neurobiological perspective, depression is believed to be triggered by abnormalities in the brain's prefrontal cortex,...

Sexually Transmitted Infections

718
Sexually transmitted infections (STIs) are diseases transmitted primarily through unsafe sexual interactions. Bacteria, viruses, or parasites cause them and can result in severe health complications if untreated.ChlamydiaThe bacterium Chlamydia trachomatis is responsible for the disease Chlamydia, the most common STI in the United States. This peculiar pathogen requires human cells to reproduce, residing intracellularly. The initial infection often goes unnoticed because it typically does not...

Factors Affecting Illness01:18

Factors Affecting Illness

4.9K
When a person's physical, emotional, intellectual, social development or spiritual functioning is compromised, this deviation from a healthy normal state is called illness. Illness creates stress that in turn harms individuals. Irritation, anger, denial, hopelessness, and fear are behavioral and emotional changes an individual experiences in the phases of illness. A variety of factors influence a person's health and well-being.
For instance, risk factors are connected to illness,...

Area of Science:

  • Public Health
  • Healthcare Management
  • Occupational Health

Background:

  • The Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) outbreak led to a heightened state of alert in Singapore.
  • Hospitals implemented team reorganizations, workflow revisions, and physical segregation, causing anxiety among healthcare workers (HCWs).
  • HCWs faced fear of the unknown, emotional, and physical fatigue.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To share the learning experiences of HCWs during the initial 8 weeks of the COVID-19 outbreak.
  • To highlight strategies for managing HCW well-being and operational challenges during a pandemic.

Main Methods:

  • Qualitative reflection on the first 8 weeks of the COVID-19 response within a hospital setting.
  • Documenting observations on HCW experiences, leadership interventions, and team dynamics.

Main Results:

  • Acknowledging and transforming HCW fears and questions into collective knowledge was vital.
  • Empathic, hands-on leadership fostered camaraderie, reduced skepticism, and validated efforts and hardships.
  • Camaraderie, reduced hierarchical barriers, and mutual motivation provided security and sustained HCWs.

Conclusions:

  • Effective leadership and strong team cohesion are essential for mitigating HCW anxiety and fatigue during pandemics.
  • Transforming fear into knowledge and validating experiences are key strategies for supporting healthcare professionals.
  • Breaking down hierarchical barriers enhances psychological security and promotes resilience among HCWs.
