Campylobacter & Helicobacter General Characteristics Common to Superfamily  Gram-negative  Helical (spiral or curved) morphology; Tend to be pleomorphic  Characteristics that facilitate penetration and colonization of mucosal environments (e.g., motile by polar flagella; corkscrew shape)  Microaerophilic atmospheric requirements  Become coccoid when exposed to oxygen or upon prolonged culture  Neither ferment nor oxidize carbohydrates History...

Carbohydrate/Glucose Metabolism (Glycolysis) Glycolysis: An Overview • Glycolysis, the major pathway for glucose oxidation, occurs in the cytosol of all cells. • It is unique, in that it can function either aerobically or anaerobically, depending on the availability of oxygen and intact mitochondria. • It allows tissues to survive in presence or absence of oxygen, e.g., skeletal muscle. • Red blood cells (RBCs), which lack mitochondria, are completely reliant on gluc...

Cardiovascular disease COMMON PRESENTING SYMPTOMS OF HEART DISEASE Chest pain Chest pain or discomfort is a common presenting symptom of cardiovascular disease and must be differentiated from non-cardiac causes. The site of pain, its character, radiation and associated symptoms will often point to the cause Dyspnoea Left heart failure is the most common cardiac cause of exertional dyspnoea and may also cause orthopnoea and paroxysmal nocturnal dyspnoea. Palpitations Palpitati...
