Learning Objectives
The final aim of the course is to link basic science with the fundamental pathogenetic and pathophysiological mechanisms underlying disease.
Program
1. Cell injury, cell death and adaptations; 2. Inflammation and repair; 3. Hemodynamic Disorders, Thromboembolism and Shock; 4. Diseases of the immune system; 5. Neoplasia; 6. Genetic Disorders; 7. Environmental and Nutritional Diseases 8. Blood vessels: structure and function of blood vessels; 9. Diabetes Mellitus.
Bridging Courses
Biochemistry. General Physiology.
Learning Achievements (Dublin Descriptors)
D1- KNOWLEDGE AND UNDERSTANDING
The students have to demonstrate that they have acquired the knowledge regarding the mechanisms responsible for the development of human diseases: the causes of cell/tissue damage and death; fundamental pathogenetic mechanisms associated with immunity, inflammation and carcinogenesis; inheritance of genetic pathologies. These skills will be assessed through the final exam.
D2-APPLYING KNOWLEDGE AND UNDERSTANDING
The student should be able to use the principles of general pathology to understand the pathogenetic mechanisms. In particular, he/she will have to use these principles during his profession in the health sector or in experimental research. These skills will be assessed through the final exam.
D3-MAKING JUDGEMENTS
The students have to acquire knowledge such as to allow the recognition of the mechanisms responsible for the development of a disease and to identify specific pathological conditions with application in the prevention, diagnosis and therapy of diseases. These skills will be tested both with the written test and through targeted oral questions. These skills will be assessed through the final exam.
D4-COMMUNICATION SKILLS
The student must be able to describe the principles and concepts learned during the course expressing themselves clearly, with appropriate terms and with appropriate examples. This ability will be assessed during the oral examination.
D5-LIFELONG LEARNING SKILLS
The students should be able to construct his/her scientific lifelong learning skills in a critical and autonomous way, being able to properly use the teaching material provided by the teacher and the in-depth own material. These skills, as far as possible, will be stimulated by the teacher by proposing insights which will then be explained and discussed during the lessons.
Teaching Material
The teaching material prepared by the lecturer in addition to recommended textbooks (such as for instance slides, lecture notes, exercises, bibliography) and communications from the lecturer specific to the course can be found inside the Moodle platform › blended.uniurb.it

Teaching, Attendance, Course Books and Assessment
- Teaching
Lectures.
- Attendance
The basic knowledge and skills that students should have in order to properly carry out the activities included in the course are related to anatomy, biochemistry and physiology.
- Course books
The topics listed in the syllabus can be studied in the one of the following books:
- Robbins Basic pathology, Kumar V., Abbas A.K., Fausto N., Aster J.C., Masson (Ninth Edition).
- Rubin R., Strayer D.S., Patologia generale (Patologia d'organo e molecolare), PICCIN.
- Majno G., Joris I., Cellule, tessuti e malattia, principi di patologia generale, Casa Editrice Ambrosiana.
- Pontieri G.M., Russo M.A., Frati L. Patologia generale (Tomo I), Piccin Editore.Consulation book:
- Strayer D.S., Rubin E., Patologia generale - Anatomia patologica, PICCIN (II edizione).
- Assessment
Oral examination preceded by a written test. The written test will consist of a multiple choice test as it is intended to evaluate the basic knowledge related to the main mechanisms responsible for the development of diseases.
The oral test will take place through oral examination in which the basic knowledge will be deepened with questions related to at least 3 topics covered in the course. The test will aim to verify the acquired knowledge and will also allow to evaluate the ability to correlate the various topics covered in the course, the communication skills and the ability to solve problems of a practical nature.
The student's answers will also be judged on the basis of their ability to use a correct and appropriate scientific terminology.
- Disabilità e DSA
Le studentesse e gli studenti che hanno registrato la certificazione di disabilità o la certificazione di DSA presso l'Ufficio Inclusione e diritto allo studio, possono chiedere di utilizzare le mappe concettuali (per parole chiave) durante la prova di esame.
A tal fine, è necessario inviare le mappe, due settimane prima dell’appello di esame, alla o al docente del corso, che ne verificherà la coerenza con le indicazioni delle linee guida di ateneo e potrà chiederne la modifica.
