Slide 1:
Title: Osteoarthritis (OA)

Introduction:

Brief overview of Osteoarthritis
Definition:

Explanation of Osteoarthritis as a degenerative joint disease characterized by the breakdown of cartilage.
Signs and Symptoms:

Joint pain, stiffness, and tenderness
Limited range of motion
Joint swelling and deformity
Pharmacological Treatment:

Analgesics (e.g., acetaminophen, NSAIDs)
Topical creams or gels (e.g., capsaicin)
Intra-articular corticosteroid injections
Hyaluronic acid injections
Disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs (DMARDs) in severe cases
Risk Factors:

Age
Obesity
Joint injuries
Genetics
Goal Standard Test:

X-rays or MRI to assess joint damage and severity
Patient Teaching:

Encouraging weight management
Regular low-impact exercise
Joint protection techniques
Use of assistive devices if needed
Slide 2:
Title: Rheumatoid Arthritis

Introduction:

Brief overview of Rheumatoid Arthritis
Definition:

Explanation of Rheumatoid Arthritis as a chronic autoimmune disease causing inflammation in the joints.
Signs and Symptoms:

Joint pain, swelling, and stiffness (symmetrical pattern)
Fatigue, fever, and loss of appetite
Rheumatoid nodules (subcutaneous lumps)
Pharmacological Treatment:

Disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs (DMARDs)
Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs)
Corticosteroids
Biologic response modifiers (e.g., TNF inhibitors)
Risk Factors:

Family history
Gender (more common in females)
Smoking
Environmental factors
Goal Standard Test:

Blood tests (e.g., rheumatoid factor, anti-cyclic citrullinated peptide antibodies)
Patient Teaching:

Importance of early diagnosis and treatment
Medication adherence
Joint protection strategies
Regular exercise and rest
You can follow a similar format for the remaining diseases, allocating two slides per disease as requested. Remember to include an introduction slide, a conclusion slide, and a references slide at the end to comply with the rubric.
