IT (information technology) is a term that encompasses all forms of technology used to create, store, exchange, and use information in its various forms (business data, voice conversations, still images, motion pictures, multimedia presentations, and other forms, including those not yet conceived). It's a convenient term for including both telephony and computer technology in the same word. It is the technology that is driving what has often been called "the information revolution."


INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY (IT) is the study, design, development, implementation, support or management of computer-based information systems, particularly software applications and computer hardware, IT deal with the use of electronic computers and computer software to convert, store protect transmit and securely retrieve information...




IT Professionals perform a variety of duties that range from installing applications to designing complex computer networks and information databases . A few of the duties that IT professional perform may be include data management, networking, engineering computer hardware, database and software design, as well as the management and administration of entire systems

When computer and communications technologies are combined, the result is information technology, or "infotech". Information Technology is a general term that describes any technology that helps to produce, manipulate, store, communicate, and / or disseminate information.
-INFORMATION
-COMMUNICATION
-TECHNOLOGY

The use of computers and the Internet is still in its infancy in developing countries, if these are used at all, due to limited infrastructure and the attendant high costs of access.

information technology - the branch of engineering that deals with the use of computers and telecommunications to retrieve and store and transmit information

Tranditional medication- Malaria

Herbal Concoction in d treatment of Malaria

World Health Organization (WHO) weekly epidemiological records, the burden of malaria is weighing too heavily on the continent, especially within the poor country.

15 to 40% of children with cerebral malaria, as well as malaria associated anemia die, half of the deaths occurring within 12 hours after arrival at the hospital.

♀♀ Latest Statistics hold that malaria kills b/w 1 to 2 million, of children each year in sub Saharan African

♀♀ Malaria is a parasitic infection transmitted to human through the bites of infected female ( Anopheles )

# MOSQUITOES

♀♀ They spread rapidly through the blood stream to the liver, the parasite emerges again into the blood stream, finally it settle in the red blood cells, where it multiplies.

♀♀ The parasite because of their larger nos can cause particular damage to the nervous system, liver & kidney.

♀♀ Four species of malaria infect humans, through only two, falciparum and vivax causes the vast majority of clinical cases and nearly all of the deaths and serious incidence of the disease.

The erythrocytic stages of all four species of plasmodium

P. falciparus

P. Vivax

P. Ovale

P. malariae

♀♀ Malaria has complex life cycle Infected female mesquites inject malaria sporoztes or parasitic calls that new hosts when they bite, they are carried to the liver where they rapidly infect liver cells.

♀♀ With out causing symptoms, these sporozoities undergo radical change & multiply furiously over the next 4 -5 days

♀♀ tens of thousands asexual stage merozoites or daughter cell of the parasite are release from each infected liver cell, each of which rapidly target and invade a red blood cell.

Every day, the merozoittes multiply ten-fold & burst out to infect other red blood cells

♀♀ this cyclic and massive increase in parasite burden gives rise to the clinical disease we recognize as malaria

♀♀ it is recorded that over 90% of all malaria deaths in Africa occur in young children.

♀♀ Most often, they experience their first malaria infections during the first one to two years after birth, in forms of cerebral malaria, anemia, diarrhea, respiratory infection, and other delicate diseases

♀♀ An estimated 2% of children who recover from celebral malaria infection suffer from

learning impairment,

disabilities,

epilepsy &

spasticity

according to WHO’s Africa malaria report 2003

♀♀ Further more a variety of potentially fatal symptoms, including liver failure, renal failure.

Key note

# There is need for a more extensive research on the use of herds in malaria therapy…

# There is need to determine the active ingredient in these herbs & subsequently determine d correct dosage

# The govt. should acknowledge the contribution of traditional herb to the health sector & should organizes workshops & seminars for exchange of ideas

# the govt. must devise a means of monitoring the activities of d herbalists; encourage cultivation, conservation & preservation of plants.

# There should be a clear list of medicinal plants in Nigeria and in Africa as a whole (data base)

# The lack of standards in d use of these herbal preparation needs to be urgently addressed.

# There is also need to standardize the usage of herds so as to play a significant role in malaria prevention and treatment

In conclusion the fact still remain that in Nigeria, some still prefer to use herbal concoction. ( lemon grass) in d treatment of malaria…
