Major Organs of the Digestive System

7.6K
The digestive system is responsible for the ingestion of food, secretion of enzymes, mixing and digesting food, absorption of the nutrients and defecation. The human digestive system consists of two major parts: the gastrointestinal tract and the accessory digestive organs.

Factors Affecting the Risk of Infection01:26

Factors Affecting the Risk of Infection

13.1K
The hosts' susceptibility to infection depends on several factors. The integrity of the skin and mucous membranes helps protect the body against microbial attacks. When the skin is altered, the chance of infection, limb loss, and even death increases.
The integrity and count of the white blood cells help the body resist pathogens and fight infection. When impaired, it reduces the body's resistance to pathogens. The acidic pH levels of the gastrointestinal, genitourinary tracts, and skin...

Effect of Hepatic Disease on Pharmacokinetics: Pathophysiologic Assessment and Liver Function Test

102
In clinical practice, the direct measurement of hepatic blood flow to evaluate liver function presents significant challenges due to the intricate and specialized nature of the necessary techniques. Consequently, healthcare professionals often rely on empirical estimates derived from thorough patient examinations and liver function tests to gauge liver health. Among the tools at their disposal, the Child–Pugh and MELD scoring systems stand out for their ability to categorize and assess...

Tissue Transplantation01:24

Tissue Transplantation

766
Tissue transplantation is a significant medical procedure involving the transfer of cells, tissues, or organs from a donor to a recipient, with the primary aim of restoring lost functions. This procedure is crucial in treating a broad spectrum of diseases, including kidney diseases, liver failure, heart disease, and certain types of cancers.
The Biology of Tissue Transplantation
The biology of tissue transplantation hinges on the Major Histocompatibility Complex (MHC) molecules. These molecules...

Area of Science:

  • Medical Science
  • Infectious Diseases
  • Cardiology

Background:

  • The COVID-19 pandemic has led to widespread global infections.
  • The virus, SARS-CoV-2, affects multiple organ systems.
  • Understanding its multi-organ impact is crucial for patient management.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review the extensive effects of COVID-19 on various organs.
  • To document the pathological mechanisms involved, including inflammation and thrombosis.
  • To highlight the diverse clinical manifestations observed in patients.

Main Methods:

  • Literature review of studies on COVID-19's organ-specific effects.
  • Analysis of reported pathological findings such as inflammation, endotheliitis, and hypercoagulability.
  • Compilation of clinical data on thrombotic events, cardiac, renal, neurological, and dermatological manifestations.

Main Results:

  • COVID-19 causes systemic inflammation, endotheliitis, vasoconstriction, hypercoagulability, and edema.
  • Observed hematological changes include lymphocytopenia, elevated D-dimer, FDPs, and DIC.
  • Reported thrombotic events include DVT, PE, arterial thrombosis, ischemic stroke, and MI. Cardiac effects include ACS, CHF, myocarditis, and arrhythmias. Kidney injury, neurological issues (stroke, delirium), anosmia, and skin manifestations are also common.

Conclusions:

  • COVID-19 is a multi-systemic disease with profound effects on virtually all organs.
  • The virus triggers significant inflammatory and thrombotic processes.
  • Clinical presentation is diverse, ranging from cardiovascular and neurological complications to psychological issues.
