Courses	Course Content
PSL 131 Medical Physiology for Medical Students	This course is designed to provide medical students the basic knowledge and the important features of human physiology in a clear and concise manner. Its main aim is to present essential facts and concepts of medical physiology, which will aid in the understanding of clinical medicine. The following systems are taught throughout this course: Introduction to physiology, body fluids, muscle and nerve, blood, autonomic nervous system, cardiovascular system, gastrointestinal system, respiratory system, renal system, acid-base balance, endocrine system, and reproductive system. This course was planned to be taught in complete one academic year.   ■ Introduction to Physiology:     Cell biology, body fluids and the mechanisms of transport across       the cell membrane.   ■ Autonomic Nervous System:     Anatomical organization and the effects of sympathetic and     parasympathetic stimulation on different systems.   ■ Cardiovascular System:     Heart as a pump (anatomy and physiology of the heart): Properties     of cardiac muscle, cardiac cycle, heart sounds, ECG, cardiac output.     vascular system haemodynamics: Blood pressure, regional     circulation and pathophysiology of few abnormal states e.g.     hypotension, shock and cardiac failure.   ■ Endocrine system:    Glands like pituitary, thyroid, parathyroid, adrenal and pancreas.      Hormonal actions, regulation of secretion and disorder of function     of each gland.   ■ Reproductive System:     Sex determination and differentiation, menstrual cycle, pregnancy     and the action of hormones in both the sexes.
PSL 211 Medical Physiology for Dental Students	This course is designed to provide dental students the basic knowledge and the important features of human physiology in a clear and concise manner. The following systems are taught throughout this course: Introduction to physiology, body fluids, muscle and nerve, blood, autonomic nervous system, cardiovascular system, gastrointestinal system, respiratory system, renal system, acid-base balance, endocrine system, and central nervous system and special senses. This course was planned to be taught in complete one academic year.   ■ Introduction to Physiology:     Cell biology, body fluids and the mechanisms of transport across     the cell membrane.   ■ Cardiovascular System:    Heart as a pump (anatomy and physiology of the heart): Properties     of cardiac muscle, cardiac cycle, heart sounds, ECG, cardiac output.     vascular system haemodynamics: Blood pressure, regional     circulation and pathophysiology of few abnormal states e.g.      hypotension, shock and cardiac failure.   ■ Endocrine system:    Glands like pituitary, thyroid, parathyroid, adrenal and pancreas.      Hormonal actions, regulation of secretion and disorder of function     of each gland.
