Study Notes

Effective Strategies in Organizations

Increased efficiency and productivity: Effective strategies lead to streamlined processes and improved resource utilization, resulting in better performance.

Factors Impacting Teamwork

Lack of communication: Poor communication, unclear expectations, and limited information exchange hinder teamwork.

Fostering Innovation

Limited resources: While resources are important for innovation, they are not considered a key element.

Impact of Inadequate Feedback

Reduced motivation and performance: Lack of constructive feedback demotivates employees and prevents them from realizing their potential.

Ineffective Conflict Resolution Approaches

Avoidance: Ignoring or suppressing conflict rarely solves problems and often creates resentment.

Psoriasis

Characterized by scaly and inflamed skin patches.
Most common type is plaque psoriasis, appearing as raised red patches with silvery scales.
Guttate psoriasis presents as small, dot-like patches, typically affecting children and young adults.
Pustular psoriasis features pus-filled bumps (pustules) surrounded by red skin, often on hands and feet.
Inverse psoriasis causes smooth red patches in skin folds like under the breasts, groins, or armpits.
Symptoms can include poor sleep, anxiety, and depression due to the chronic nature of the condition.
Other symptoms include itchy or burning thick red skin with silvery scales, dry and cracked skin, and thick, rigid, and pitted nails.
Can be aggravated by infections like staphylococcal or HIV, certain medications (heart, mental disorders, malaria), smoking, and obesity.
Management involves addressing aggravating factors, maintaining a balanced diet, getting adequate rest, and managing stress.
Differential diagnosis includes white scales, thickness, and bumps.
Autoimmune causes are often linked to genetic predisposition, but the exact cause remains unknown.
Treatment includes anxiolytic medications, polytar (coal tar and pine tar combination), psoralen (local application), methotrexate (once a week), cyclosporins (severe cases), and prednisolone (tapering course).

Warts

Caused by the human papillomavirus (HPV).
Different subtypes of HPV lead to various types of warts, including mosaic warts, filiform warts, flat warts, genital warts, and butcher's warts.
Mosaic warts are caused by the 2nd strain of HPV, commonly found on the thumb, between toes, and in the plantar region. These are painless and flat.
Filiform warts are caused by strains 1, 2, 4, 27, and 29, typically appearing on the face, around the eyes, nose, and inside the nose. They are finger or thread-like and hang over the skin.
Flat warts are caused by strains 3, 10, and 28, appearing anywhere on the body. They are smooth, soft, and may appear in large numbers.
Genital warts are caused by strains 6 and 11, present on the mucosa lining, cervix, and anal canal. They are hard, noodle-like, and rough.
Butcher's warts, mainly associated with strains 2, 4, and 7, are larger than common warts and occur in multiples on the hands of butchers.
Focal epithelial hyperplasia (Heck's disease) is caused by HPV types 13 or 32, presenting as multiple white to pinkish papules in the oral cavity.
Treatment options include cutting from the base with silver nitrate solution, applying acetic acid, using a caustic soda and lime water paste, removing a single layer daily, and using salicylic acid topically for multiple warts. Specific antiviral medications may also be used.

Candidiasis

Fungal infection caused by Candida species.
Herbal remedies include Ajwain, Babchi, Rayi, and Gandak.

Alopecia Areata

An autoimmune disorder characterized by patchy hair loss in specific areas.
Can be triggered by hormonal factors, fungal infections, allergies, and can coexist with seborrheic dermatitis or dandruff.
Affects the scalp or other body parts with hair.
Types include Alopecia Areata Totalis (all scalp hair loss), Alopecia Areata Universalis (all body hair loss), and Ophiasis Alopecia Areata (hair loss on the sides and back, but present in the center).
Symptoms include patchy hair loss, absence of facial hair, eyelashes, and eyebrows, pitted nails, no itching, tingling sensation in patches during hair fall, plane and soft areas with hair follicle dots, and weak hair margins.
Diagnosis is made through physical examination and culture to detect seborrheic dandruff.
Treatment involves corticosteroids to suppress the immune system, immunomodulators, antimony sulfide (topical application), benzoic acid and salicylic acid (for fungal cause), copper sulfate solution, and selenium-based shampoo.

Icthyosis

Skin disorder causing dry, fish-like scales on the skin.
Characterized by dry, thickened, rough, and scaly skin.
Has 20 types, including hereditary and acquired.
Most common type is Icthyosis Vulgaris.
