What's in the new presentation (17 slides, dark navy theme):

Structure:

SectionSlides
CoverTitle slide
Part 1 — MeningococcalOverview, pathology timeline, meningococcaemia, 2 clinical photos (petechiae + purpura), microscopy & causes of death
Part 2 — Scarlet FeverOverview & pathogenesis, primary complex, complications periods 1 & 2, 2 clinical photos (sandpaper rash + strawberry tongue)
Part 3 — MeaslesOverview & pathogenesis, clinical features (Koplik + rash), immunosuppression & complications, 2 clinical photos (Koplik spots + maculopapular rash)
Part 4 — DiphtheriaOverview & toxin mechanism, local forms, systemic complications, 2 clinical photos (bull-neck + pseudomembrane)
Final slidesFull comparison table + key mnemonics

What was added (beginner-friendly):

  • Plain-English explanations of every mechanism (e.g., why hydrocephalus develops, how the toxin kills the heart)
  • 8 real clinical photos from medical literature (non-blanching rash, Koplik spots, strawberry tongue, bull-neck, etc.)
  • Mnemonics on the final slide (3 Cs of measles, Waterhouse-Friderichsen, etc.)
  • Step-by-step pathogenesis sequences you can follow logically
  • Causes of death clearly listed for each disease
