Systemic pathology III
(objectives)
Among the aims of the course, there is the understanding of hematopoietic and lymphoid system and its physiopathological disorders. Futhermore, knowledge of the main haematological disorders is also required, such as anemia and clonal hematopoiesis (ARCH, CHIP, ICUS CCUS and IDUS), as well as, oncohematological disorders such as myelodysplastic syndromes, acute and chronic myeloid leukemias, myeloproliferative disorders, lymphoblastic leukemia and lymphoma. In addition, students will know the main non communicable diseases and the basis of clinical methodology. Moreover, the aim of the lessons is to give the students the ability to recognize the clinical presentation, epidemiology, course and prognosis of main rheumatic diseases. Another aim of the course is to provide students the knowledge of microorganism-host interactions and the clinical situations, including infections, infectious diseases, colonization, deriving from this interaction. This course will give also the basics for applying proper diagnostic procedures to identify the presence of microorganisms and their role towards the host. Moreover, the course will introduce the pharmacological properties of the main anti-infective substances, and the proper treatment of the infectious diseases. During the course, the teacher will introduce the main diseases with an infective etiology, giving the students elements of epidemiology, pathophysiology, differential and laboratory diagnosis, and clinical-therapeutical management. A particular overview of emerging and re-emerging infections will be treated. At the end of the course, the student will also know the principles of the control and prevention of infections in the community and healthcare settings, in a “One Health” approach.
