- Course objectives
- The aim of the subject is to teach students to be able to answer a sufficient number of pathophysiologically asked questions "why", especially focused on these themes:
Pathological Physiology as a science. Disease, health, normality. Descriptivism contra normativism.
Physiology of genes, regulation of gene activity.
Monogenic and multigenic diseases.
Shock syndrome.
Reactive oxygen species (ROS). Ionising radiation effects on cellular level.
Ionising radiation effects on tissue and organismal level.
Cardiovascular pathophysiology - systolic and diastolic function.
Cardiac failure.
Myocardial ischemia.
Hypertension.
Pathophysiology of the gas exchange in the lungs.
Pathophysiology of respiratory mechanics.
Chronic obstructive bronchopulmonary disease.
Restriction pulmonary diseases, respiratory failure.
Physiology of membrane transports. - Syllabus
