Study Notes
Body Systems
- Cells are the basic units of the body, creating organs like muscle, nerves, and skin.
- Tissues are groups of similar cells working together, such as muscle tissue (tkanka mięśniowa).
- Organs are formed when different tissues work together.
Systems of the Body
- Circulatory System (układ krwionośny):
- Consists of the heart, blood, blood vessels (veins, arteries, and capillaries).
- Transports blood throughout the body.
- Lymphatic System (układ limfatyczny):
- Includes lymph vessels, lymph nodes, and lymphocytes.
- Contains a clear fluid (lymph) that fights diseases.
- Digestive System (układ pokarmowy):
- Breaks down food for the body to absorb nutrients.
- Removes waste products.
- Endocrine System (układ hormonalny):
- Produces hormones which regulate bodily functions.
- Musculoskeletal System (układ mięśniowo-szkieletowy):
- Includes the muscular and skeletal systems, working together.
- Supports the body and allows movement.
- Nervous System (układ nerwowy):
- Carries electrical messages between the brain and spinal cord, and the body.
- Reproductive System (układ rozrodczy):
- Produces cells (gametes) for reproduction (e.g. ovaries - jajniki).
- Respiratory System (układ oddechowy):
- Controls respiration (breathing).
- Urinary System (układ moczowy):
- Produces and removes urine.
- Skin and Sense Organ System (układ narządów zmysłów):
- Covers and protects the body.
Organs
- Pituitary gland (przysadka mózgowa)
- Prostate gland (prostata)
- Vertebrae (kręgi)
- Ovaries (jajniki)
Jeanne Calment
- French woman who lived to be 122 years and 164 days old.
Resveratrol
- An ingredient found in red wine.
- Produced in grape skins during fermentation.
- A powerful antioxidant that may combat oxidative stress.
- Possibly has an anti-aging effect, and a link to a reduced incidence of heart disease in French populations.
Well - Being
- Physical well-being: Maintaining health through exercise, nutrition, sleep, and medical care.
- Emotional well-being: Managing emotions, stress, and mental health.
- Social well-being: Having strong, supportive relationships.
- Psychological well-being: Sense of purpose, self-esteem, and personal growth.
- Basic human needs (food, water, shelter)
- Economic needs (employment, education, financial security)
- Environmental needs (clean air and water, healthy environment).
- Subjective happiness (life satisfaction, freedom, sense of community)
Eugenics
- The study of improving the genetic quality of a human population.
- Often associated with forced sterilizations and discriminatory policies.
Genetics vs. Epigenetics
- Genetics studies how traits are passed through DNA.
- Epigenetics studies how environmental factors affect gene expression without changing the DNA sequence.
Medical Terms
- AIDS - Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome
- BDNF - Brain-Derived Neurotrophic Factor
- HIV - Human Immunodeficiency Virus
- STD/STI - Sexually Transmitted Disease / Sexually Transmitted Infection
- CBC/TBC - Complete Blood Count / Total Blood Count
- EBM - Evidence-Based Medicine

- MEWS - Modified Early Warning Score
- ZSWOK- Zespół Wczesnej Oceny Klinicznej (Early Warning Clinical Assessment Team)
- HAV - Hepatitis A virus
- HBV - Hepatitis B virus
- HCV - Hepatitis C virus
Additional Notes
- Informed consent: A document a patient signs to allow healthcare.
- Physical examination: The process by which a doctor checks a patient's health.
- Practices, Diagnosis, Prognosis: Procedures, Analysis and prediction of illness course.
Sirtuins
- Proteins that regulate metabolic processes, cellular ageing & responses to oxidative stress.
- Involved in energy metabolism, DNA repair, and gene activity.
- Research focuses on their role in diseases like cancer and neurodegenerative conditions.
- Potential impact on longevity and health, particularly those with activators like resveratrol.
Longevity (długowieczność)
- Sirtuins play a key role in slowing down cellular aging, protecting against oxidative stress, and regulating metabolism.
- Their activity helps maintain cellular health, which may contribute to longevity.
- Impact on human longevity is still under research.
