Task 2 Read and comprehend the text "Anatomy and Functions of Urinary System ".

The main function of the urinary system is to excrete urea, which is nitrogen-containing waste product of protein metabolism. Urea is formed in the liver from ammonia, which is derived from the breakdown of amino acids (simple proteins) in the body cells. The urea is carried in the bloodstream to the kidneys.

The urinary system includes the kidneys, right and left; the ureters (renal ducts), muscular tubes from each kidney lined with mucous membrane, which convey urine to the urinary bladder; the urinary bladder which is a hollow muscular sac for temporary collection of urine and the urethra which is a tube through which urine is discharged from the urinary bladder and passed out of the body.

The kidneys are bean-shaped organs embedded in a cushion of adipose tissue and located behind the abdominal cavity. They consist of an outer cortex part and an inner medullar part. The kidneys can be compared with filters because they perform the filtration of waste products from the blood. These waste products are brought to the kidneys via the renal arteries which branch into the kidneys and are rather short and thick.

The process of filtration and formation of urine takes place within the tiny tulubes of the kidney. Besides, renal functions include participation in the control of: volume of blood and other fluids of the body; protein, lipid and carbohydrate metabolism; arterial pressure; erythropoesis; coagulation of blood and some more functions. Thus, the kidney is an organ that participates in ensuring the constancy of the main physico-chemical constants of the blood and other fluids within the body and contributes to the regulation of metabolism of various organic substances. Depending on the water balance in the organism, the kidneys produce diluted and ' concentrated urine. The urine may contain many substances found in the blood plasma, as well as some compounds synthesized in the kidney itself.

The volume of urine discharge by a healthy individual may vary widely and depends on the condition of water balance. The color of the urine depends on the diuresis and the excretion of pigments; it changes from light yellow to orange. The pigments are formed by biliary bilirubin in the intestine where it is converted to urobilin and urochrome which are partely absorbed in the intestine and excreted by the kidneys. Some of the urinary pigments are products of haemoglobin breakdown oxidized in the kidney. Urine formed in the renal tulubes passes into the renal pelvis and fills it

gradually. When the filling threshold is reached, the signal of which is given by the baroreceptors the pelvis muscles contract, the ureteral lumen opens and the urin£ flows into the urinary bladder. With the gradual increase of the volume of urine the walls of the bladder are stretched. In the initial stage of filling the tension of the walls does not change, and pressure in the bladder does not grow. When the volume of the urine reachbs a definite level, tension of the smooth muscle walls of the bladder increases sharply, the pressure of fluid in its cavity rises, and complex reflex act of micturition occurs. Movement of urine along; the urethra plays an important role in the act of micturition as it stimulates contraction of the bladder by reflex.

Task 3 Choose the answers to the questions:

  1. What is the main function of the urinary system?

  1. Why does the body excrete nitrogeneous waste in the form of a soluble (dissolved in water) waste substance called urea?

  1. Why can the kidneys be compared with the filters?

tulubes and this dilutes the wastes and minerals in the urine d) for protection > e) because protein foods contain carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen and other elements and the waste

that is produced and can not be excreted from the

body simply by exhalation f) as a temporary reservoir for urine — g) it stimulates the contraction of arterioles so that blood

pressure is increased and blood flow in the kidneys is

restored to normal h) because their presence can increase the acidity of the

конкрементів

Task 9 Read and comprehend the article "Kidney Stones: 2 new treatments": '

West German doctors developed two new techniques, one using high-energy shock waves, to remove kidney stones much less painfully and without the customary major surgery.

The techniques also promise to reduce by several weeks the recovery period for tens of thousands of patients. In one of the new methods, the kidney stone is extracted directly through the skin, but the patient still must undergo general anesthesia. The other method, generally painless, involves no surgery at all. It relies on the delivery of high-energy electric shock waves monitored by X-rays.

The overwhelming majority of kidney stones pass out of the body on their own, often accompanied by excruciating pain. Surgery is necessary in about 20 per cent of kidney stone cases. In the operation that has been used for decades, the surgeon cuts through layers of tissue to reach into the organ to remove the stone by hand and with forcepts. Patients usually stay in the hospital for one or two weeks, and are limited in the amount of physical activity and work they can undertake for another four or five weeks.

In most cases the new techniques should do away with this major operation. But people who develop one kidney stone often develop another, and neither technique prevents the formation of new stones.Doctors first inject a chemical dye to outline the kidneys in X­rays. Then they insert a wire, much like a needle, into the kidney. This part of procedure requires no anesthesia. The next day, the surgeon uses the wire as a guide to insert a tube into the kidney. The tube which contains instruments and fiberoptical devices enables doctors to see the kidney both directly and on a television screen. Depending on the circumstances in each case, the doctors can then remove the stone under direct vision or they can pulverize it by sending ultrasound through the tube. The small pebbles are then removed with a suction device. This procedure usually takes no more than 90 minutes and patient's hospital stays have averaged only four days. The technique was successful in 104 of 109 cases.

The second technique was developed in Munich. After a local anesthetic is injected into the back, the patient sits in a tank filled with water in such a position that the kidney stone is at the focal point of a Shockwave generator. Then from 500 to 1,500 shocks are given to destroy the stone.

The timing of the shocks is coordinated with an electrocardiogram to prevent cardiac arrest. The number of shocks generally depends on the size of the stone. Within two days after the treatment the patient passes the pulverized stones in his urine.

The stones were entirely removed in 90 per cent of the patients. Pieces of stone were left in 9 per cent and surgery had to be done in 1 per cent.

Task 10 Read the statements to the article above and either support or challenge them by putting plus and minus signs:

  1. A new technique uses high energy shock waves to remove kidney stones.

  2. The recovery period will be prolonged because of the new technique.

  3. The patient does not have to undergo general anesthesia when the kidney stone is extracted through the skin.

  4. One of the techniques prevents the formation of new stones.

  5. A chemical dye is injected to outline the kidneys in X-rays.

  6. The tube inserted into the kidney does not enable doctors to see the kidney directly and on a television screen.

  7. The timing of the shocks is coordinated by means of X-rays.

Task 3 Read and comprehend the text. Get ready to answer the questions to the text and narrate it:

Infection is defined as the invasion, establishment and growth of a specific pathogenic organism in the tissues of the host. Infectious (contagious or communicable) diseases are those called by such microorganisms and capable of being transmitted to another individual by direct or indirect contact. As they are invariably " marked by a pyrexia! or febrile condition, i.e. elevated temperature, they are often referred to as fevers, and fever departments in hospitals are those where cases of infectious disease are kept in isolation.

In terms of hygiene and epidemiology most of the infectious fevers are subject to notification. Many of them attack humans in childhood and consequently come under the heading of children's ailments (particularly so: measles, German measles, chicken pox, mumps and whooping cough). An exanthem (skin eruption or rash) appears as a clinical manifestation of most of the infectious diseases. There are incubation and prodromal periods of varying duration.

Typhoid (or enteric) fever, a serious infectious febrile condition is spread mostly by food, milk or water contaminated by Salmonella typhosa present in sewage effluents, or indirectly by flies or by insufficient personal hygiene.

The germ may also be spread by symptomless carriers who harbor it in their digestive tracts, excreting it in their stools and thus contaminating sewage waters. The average incubation period is 10 to 14 days. A rose-colored exanthem usually appears on the upper abdomen and back at the end of the first week. The onset of the disease, which develops as| the germ invades lymphoid tissue, including that of the small intestine, is marked by progressive febrile illness (step-ladder temperature). Stools are profusely diarrhoeal and may culminate in intestinal haemorrhage and perforation as the sloughts separate during the third week, a stage of defervescence. Ultimate recovery usually begins at the end of the third week.

Typhus (or spotted) fever, an acute febrile infectious disease is normally associated with conditions of war, famine, concentration camps (jail fever) or natural disasters such as floods as it is usually spread by lice, ticks or fleas (tick-borne typhus fever). The invading microorganism is Rickettisia. Characteristic symptoms of typhus include high fever, skin eruptions coalescing to form blotches (hence: spotted fever), congested eyes and severe headache. Typhus fever is rather sporadic in developed countries nowadays, though it continues to take its toll in the developing world, particularly at times of natural disaster.

Smallpox or variola was a fiercely contagious disease caused by the same virus as that of vaccinia or cowpox which is transmissible to man but which confers immunity against true smallpox. The initial symptoms include extreme illness with severe headache and backache, vomiting and high fever. The patient then comes out in a widespread rash (except, usually, the axillae) which follows a regular pattern of dissemination, first appearing on the head and face. The rash is first popular, then vasicular and eventually pustular leaving disfiguring scars or pock-marks on the skin if and when the patient survives. The mortality rate among untreated cases is very high. Strict precautions are called for, including immediate isolation of the patient in a special fever hospital, destruction or disinfection of his fomites, the tracing of all contacts and keeping them under surveillance or in quarantine. Vaccination by a cowpox vaccine is the main prophylactic measure.

Cholera is an acute epidemic condition with an extremely high mortality rate. It is caused not only by the classical bacillus of the vibrio cholerae strain but also by the newer and far more virulent strain of the ELTor group of vibrios. It is spread mainly by contaminated water under conditions of overcrowding and general lack of sanitation. A recovered ELTor victim may remain a menace by continuing to excrete bacilli for as long as six months, unlike a mere three weeks after classical cholera. The principle symptoms are: a most severe diarrhoae (the evacuation of quantities of the so called rice-water stoolsywith an often fatal loss of up to 15 litres of fluid a day in an adult, little or no fever or even subnormal temperature, agonizing cramp and severe collapse. According to the latest theories, the diarrhoea results from a disturbance of what is known as the "sodium pump". Normally, sodium salts and other electrolytes pass in both directions, from the inside of the bowel into the blood plasma, and vice versa, and the movement is greater from the gut to the plasma. In cholera, the proportions are reversed. Hence, the aim of any successful treatment is to maintain the patient's balance of fluids. Vaccination consists in injections of killed bacilli but complete prevention of cholera can only be achieved by cleaning up or isolating contaminated water supplies.

Infective hepatitis is the inflammation of the liver caused by virus infection. Virus A or IH has an incubation period of two to six weeks and is spread by the diseased person's saliva, mucus, excrement or urine. In contrast, virus B or SH is spread only by direct contact or inoculation with human blood products and is the cause of serum hepatitis with a much longer incubation period ranging from six weeks to six months. Early symptoms are raised temperature, weakness, sleepiness and irritability, loss of appetite, sickness or even vomiting and in some cases catarrh of the bronchial tubes. These are followed by pain in the area of the liver and jaundice - a typical yellow coloration of the skin and the whites of the eyes due to a sudden increase in the level of bilirubin in the plasma. Hepatocellular jaundice is a disease of the cells which excrete bilirubin, while haemolytic jaundice is caused by increased breakdown of erythrocytes.

Poliomyelitis or infantile paralysis is an epidemic infection by poliovirus which invades the motor neurons of the anterior horns in the brain stem and spinal cord. An attack of polio may have a crippling effect in that it may lead to paralysis of the lower extremities with loss of muscular power and flaccidity.

The first major breakthrough in eradicating the disease came with the Jonas E. Salk killed-virus vaccine which gave 70-80% protection against paralytic polio. Better results have been achieved since the introduction of the Sabin live-virus vaccine despite initial fears that the live, though weakened, virus might mutate and regain its virulence to cause paralysis.
