The prostate is an exocrine gland of the male mammalian reproductive system
It is a walnut-sized gland that forms part of the male reproductive system and is located in front of the rectum and just below the urinary bladder
Function is to store and secrete a clear, slightly alkaline fluid that constitutes 10-30% of the volume of the seminal fluid that along with the spermatozoa, constitutes semen
A healthy human prostate measures (4cm-vertical, by 3cm-horizontal, 2cm ant-post ).
It surrounds the urethra just below the urinary bladder. It has anterior, median, posterior and two lateral lobes
It’s work is regulated by androgens which are responsible for male sex characteristics
Generalised disease of the prostate due to hormonal derangement which leads to non malignant enlargement of the gland (increase in the number of epithelial cells and stromal tissue)to cause compression of the urethra leading to symptoms (LUTS
Acute scrotum is a general term referring to an emergency condition affecting the contents or the wall of the scrotum.
There are a number of conditions that present acutely, predominantly with pain and/or swelling
A careful and detailed history and examination, and in some cases, investigations allow differentiation between these diagnoses. A prompt diagnosis is essential as the patient may require urgent surgical intervention
Testicular torsion refers to twisting of the spermatic cord, causing ischaemia of the testicle.
Testicular torsion results from inadequate fixation of the testis to the tunica vaginalis producing ischemia from reduced arterial inflow and venous outflow obstruction.
The prevalence of testicular torsion in adult patients hospitalized with acute scrotal pain is approximately 25 to 50 percent

Flu Vaccine Alert in Bangalore Karnatakaaddon Scans
As flu season approaches, health officials in Bangalore, Karnataka, are urging residents to get their flu vaccinations. The seasonal flu, while common, can lead to severe health complications, particularly for vulnerable populations such as young children, the elderly, and those with underlying health conditions.
Dr. Vidisha Kumari, a leading epidemiologist in Bangalore, emphasizes the importance of getting vaccinated. "The flu vaccine is our best defense against the influenza virus. It not only protects individuals but also helps prevent the spread of the virus in our communities," he says.
This year, the flu season is expected to coincide with a potential increase in other respiratory illnesses. The Karnataka Health Department has launched an awareness campaign highlighting the significance of flu vaccinations. They have set up multiple vaccination centers across Bangalore, making it convenient for residents to receive their shots.
To encourage widespread vaccination, the government is also collaborating with local schools, workplaces, and community centers to facilitate vaccination drives. Special attention is being given to ensuring that the vaccine is accessible to all, including marginalized communities who may have limited access to healthcare.
Residents are reminded that the flu vaccine is safe and effective. Common side effects are mild and may include soreness at the injection site, mild fever, or muscle aches. These side effects are generally short-lived and far less severe than the flu itself.
Healthcare providers are also stressing the importance of continuing COVID-19 precautions. Wearing masks, practicing good hand hygiene, and maintaining social distancing are still crucial, especially in crowded places.
Protect yourself and your loved ones by getting vaccinated. Together, we can help keep Bangalore healthy and safe this flu season. For more information on vaccination centers and schedules, residents can visit the Karnataka Health Department’s official website or follow their social media pages.
Stay informed, stay safe, and get your flu shot today!

RESULTS: Overall life span (LS) was 2252.1±1742.5 days and cumulative 5-year survival (5YS) reached 73.2%, 10 years – 64.8%, 20 years – 42.5%. 513 LCP lived more than 5 years (LS=3124.6±1525.6 days), 148 LCP – more than 10 years (LS=5054.4±1504.1 days).199 LCP died because of LC (LS=562.7±374.5 days). 5YS of LCP after bi/lobectomies was significantly superior in comparison with LCP after pneumonectomies (78.1% vs.63.7%, P=0.00001 by log-rank test). AT significantly improved 5YS (66.3% vs. 34.8%) (P=0.00000 by log-rank test) only for LCP with N1-2. Cox modeling displayed that 5YS of LCP significantly depended on: phase transition (PT) early-invasive LC in terms of synergetics, PT N0—N12, cell ratio factors (ratio between cancer cells- CC and blood cells subpopulations), G1-3, histology, glucose, AT, blood cell circuit, prothrombin index, heparin tolerance, recalcification time (P=0.000-0.038). Neural networks, genetic algorithm selection and bootstrap simulation revealed relationships between 5YS and PT early-invasive LC (rank=1), PT N0—N12 (rank=2), thrombocytes/CC (3), erythrocytes/CC (4), eosinophils/CC (5), healthy cells/CC (6), lymphocytes/CC (7), segmented neutrophils/CC (8), stick neutrophils/CC (9), monocytes/CC (10); leucocytes/CC (11). Correct prediction of 5YS was 100% by neural networks computing (area under ROC curve=1.0; error=0.0).
CONCLUSIONS: 5YS of LCP after radical procedures significantly depended on: 1) PT early-invasive cancer; 2) PT N0--N12; 3) cell ratio factors; 4) blood cell circuit; 5) biochemical factors; 6) hemostasis system; 7) AT; 8) LC characteristics; 9) LC cell dynamics; 10) surgery type: lobectomy/pneumonectomy; 11) anthropometric data. Optimal diagnosis and treatment strategies for LC are: 1) screening and early detection of LC; 2) availability of experienced thoracic surgeons because of complexity of radical procedures; 3) aggressive en block surgery and adequate lymph node dissection for completeness; 4) precise prediction; 5) adjuvant chemoimmunoradiotherapy for LCP with unfavorable prognosis.

Introduction
Substance abuse, particularly the diversion and abuse of prescription drugs, is one of
the most critical public health and safety issues facing Kentucky. Over the past decade,
the number of Kentuckians who die from drug overdoses has steadily climbed to more
than 1,000 each year, exacting a devastating toll on families, communities, social
services and economic stability and growth.
In an effort to reverse the trend, the Commonwealth has implemented a number of
program and policy initiatives, including b ut not limited to the statewide use of
prescription drug monitoring programs, expanded availability of substance abuse
treatment opportunities, and the enactment of laws (House Bill 1 from the 2012 Special
Session and House Bill 217 from the 2013 Regular Session) specifically addressing the
availablity of prescription medications.
HB 1 mandates that the Office of Drug Control Policy, in cooperation with the Kentucky
Medical Examiners Office, prepare and publish an annual public report to the Secretary
of the Justice and Public Safety Cabinet to include:
(1) The number of drug-related deaths;
(2) The decedent's age, race, and gender but not his or her name or address;
(3) The counties in which those deaths occurred;
(4) The scientific, trade, or generic names of the drugs involved; and
(5) The method by which the drugs were obtained, when available.
This report was compiled utilizing data from the Kentucky Medical Examiners Office,
the Kentucky Injury Prevention & Research Council, and the Kentucky Office of Vital
Statistics.
Highlights of the 2013 findings include:
• Kentucky overdose fatalities stayed relatively steady in 2013. Overdose
deaths in Kentucky regardless of the residency of the decedent numbered
1007 as tabulated by July 2014, compared to 1004 overdose deaths counted
in the 2012 report.1

Number of 2013 known overdose deaths as of July, 2014. A small number of overdose deaths may still be
reported for the previous year after this date. For comparison purposes, the 2012 Overdose Fatality Report
indicated 1004 deaths; by the end of 2013, the final number of overdose deaths for 2012 was 1070.

• Autopsied overdose deaths attributed to the use of heroin increased. Of the
722 deaths autopsied by the Kentucky Medical Examiner last year that were
determined to be from a drug overdose, 230, or 31.9 percent, were attributed to
heroin, compared to 143, or 19.6 percent, in 2012.
• Jefferson County had the most overdose deaths of any county, with 191.
• The largest increase in overdose fatalities occurred in Fayette County, with 86
deaths in 2013 compared to 74 in 2012.
• The largest decrease occurred in Campbell County, with 22 fewer fatalities in
2013 than 2012 (33 versus 55, respectively). Other counties with significant
declines in 2013 include Pike (12 fewer), Clark (10 fewer), and Madison (10
fewer).
• Overdose deaths in many Eastern Kentucky counties, when compared by
100,000 population, 2013 data, showed high rates. The top 6 counties by
overdose deaths per 100,000 people for 2013 are:
Bell County 93.2 per 100,000
Clinton County 49.3 per 100,000
Breathitt County 44.3 per 100,000
Floyd County 43.9 per 100,000
Perry County 42.8 per 100,00
Harlan 42.1 per 100,000
*Counties with less than 5 deaths were not calculated
A review of cases autopsied by the Kentucky Medical Examiner’s Office indicates that in
2013:
• Morphine was the most detected controlled substance in overdose deaths,
present in 43.49% of all autopsied cases.
• Alprazolam was next at 34.76%, followed by 6 monoacetylmorphine (heroin) at
32%, hydrocodone at 24.79%, and oxycodone at 19.94%
5. 5 | P a g e
• The youngest overdose fatality was 18 years old, and the oldest was 78 years
old.
• The top five counties for heroin detected in overdose deaths, according to data
from Kentucky Medical Examiner and coroner reports, include:
1) Jefferson County 105
2) Fayette County 35
3) Kenton County 34
4) Boone County 22
5) Campbell County 16
