Vector-borne Diseases
Vector: a living organism that transmits an infectious agent from an infected animal to a human or another animal
Mechanical
Transmits microbes passively
e.g. flies, fleas
Pick up infectious agents on the outside of their bodies and transmit through physical contact
Biological
Essential part of the microbe life style
e.g. mosquitoes, ticks
Carry pathogens that can multiply within their bodies and be delivered to new hosts, usually by biting
VBD: diseases spread by anthropoid or small animal vectors
Types of VBD transmissions

Dependence and Addiction
Substance abuse
hazardous or harmful use of psychoactive substances, including both illicit and legal substances
Neurotransmitters and Substance Abuse
The brain-signaling pathways targeted by drugs of abuse transmit dopamine and serotonin
Dopamine and Serotonin:
Chemicals that are normally involved in communication between neurons in the brain
Dopamine: "pleasure neurotransmitter", brings feelings of pleasure and provides a happiness boost based on a certain action
Serotonin is more of a stabilizer than a booster
Abused substances can influence functions modulated by either/both of these chemicals
Pathway
Addictive drugs (e.g. nicotine) activate "reward pathways" in the midbrain
This pathway normally activated by beneficial activities like eating and sex
Addictive drugs increase release of dopamine in midbrain, leading to feeling of pleasure
Mechanism of Addiction
Substances of abuse are potent stimuli that encode enduring patterns of drug-seeking behavior in the reward system
High-intensity reward activation is followed by a period of reduced activity and responsiveness, during which natural rewards are not strong enough to activate the system.
At the same time, altered gene transcription results in the accumulation of long-lived intracellular proteins that sensitize the reward system.
Small environmental or chemical stimuli can reactivate addictive behaviors even after long periods of abstinence.
Some of the substance-induced changes occur at the epigenetic level and may be transmitted to descendants
Tolerance
Decreased effect of drug
Need for higher or repeated doses for the same effect
Acute (during single exposure)
Chronic (from repeated use)
Dependence
Adverse effects associated with stopping use of drug
Adverse effects are alleviated by taking the drug
Teratogen Effects
Agent or substances that may cause birth defects due to a toxic effect on an embryo or fetus that causes an abnormality following fetal exposure during pregnancy or can increase the chance of a congenital defect occurring
Smoking
Smoking and NCDs
Smoking and Pregnancy
Smoking and Diabetes
Alcohol
Moderate Alcohol Consumption
Binge Drinking
Alcohol and NCDs

3 main forms
Fatty liver
Alcohol metabolism leads to fat accumulation in the liver (steatosis)
