This document discusses acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), including its etiology, clinical features, and management. ARDS can be precipitated by direct lung injury from inhalation of gastric contents or toxins, or indirect injury from non-pulmonary sepsis or trauma. Clinically, ARDS presents with acute onset dyspnea within 1 week and hypoxemia. Chest imaging shows bilateral infiltrates. Treatment involves identifying and treating the underlying cause, maintaining oxygenation with mechanical ventilation, and treating other organ dysfunction. Rescue therapies for severe ARDS include corticosteroids, prone positioning, and extracorporeal membrane oxygenation.

Interstitial lung disease is a general category that includes many different lung conditions. All interstitial lung diseases affect the interstitium, a part of the lungs' anatomic structure.
Some of the types of interstitial lung disease include:
Interstitial pneumonia: Bacteria, viruses, or fungi may infect the interstitium of the lung. A bacterium called Mycoplasma pneumonia is the most common cause.
Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis : A chronic, progressive form of fibrosis (scarring) of the interstitium. Its cause is unknown.
Nonspecific interstitial pneumonitis: Interstitial lung disease that's often present with autoimmune conditions (such as rheumatoid arthritis or scleroderma).
Interstitial lung diseases (ILDs) are a group of more than 200 different disorders that cause scarring in the lungs. Scar tissue in the lungs can make it harder for you to breathe normally. In ILDs, scarring damages tissues in or around the lungs’ air sacs and airways.

New Directions in Targeted Therapeutic Approaches for Older Adults With Mantl...i3 Health
i3 Health is pleased to make the speaker slides from this activity available for use as a non-accredited self-study or teaching resource.
This slide deck presented by Dr. Kami Maddocks, Professor-Clinical in the Division of Hematology and
Associate Division Director for Ambulatory Operations
The Ohio State University Comprehensive Cancer Center, will provide insight into new directions in targeted therapeutic approaches for older adults with mantle cell lymphoma.
STATEMENT OF NEED
Mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) is a rare, aggressive B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) accounting for 5% to 7% of all lymphomas. Its prognosis ranges from indolent disease that does not require treatment for years to very aggressive disease, which is associated with poor survival (Silkenstedt et al, 2021). Typically, MCL is diagnosed at advanced stage and in older patients who cannot tolerate intensive therapy (NCCN, 2022). Although recent advances have slightly increased remission rates, recurrence and relapse remain very common, leading to a median overall survival between 3 and 6 years (LLS, 2021). Though there are several effective options, progress is still needed towards establishing an accepted frontline approach for MCL (Castellino et al, 2022). Treatment selection and management of MCL are complicated by the heterogeneity of prognosis, advanced age and comorbidities of patients, and lack of an established standard approach for treatment, making it vital that clinicians be familiar with the latest research and advances in this area. In this activity chaired by Michael Wang, MD, Professor in the Department of Lymphoma & Myeloma at MD Anderson Cancer Center, expert faculty will discuss prognostic factors informing treatment, the promising results of recent trials in new therapeutic approaches, and the implications of treatment resistance in therapeutic selection for MCL.
Target Audience
Hematology/oncology fellows, attending faculty, and other health care professionals involved in the treatment of patients with mantle cell lymphoma (MCL).
Learning Objectives
1.) Identify clinical and biological prognostic factors that can guide treatment decision making for older adults with MCL
2.) Evaluate emerging data on targeted therapeutic approaches for treatment-naive and relapsed/refractory MCL and their applicability to older adults
3.) Assess mechanisms of resistance to targeted therapies for MCL and their implications for treatment selection
Recomendações da OMS sobre cuidados maternos e neonatais para uma experiência pós-natal positiva.
Em consonância com os ODS – Objetivos do Desenvolvimento Sustentável e a Estratégia Global para a Saúde das Mulheres, Crianças e Adolescentes, e aplicando uma abordagem baseada nos direitos humanos, os esforços de cuidados pós-natais devem expandir-se para além da cobertura e da simples sobrevivência, de modo a incluir cuidados de qualidade.
Estas diretrizes visam melhorar a qualidade dos cuidados pós-natais essenciais e de rotina prestados às mulheres e aos recém-nascidos, com o objetivo final de melhorar a saúde e o bem-estar materno e neonatal.
Uma “experiência pós-natal positiva” é um resultado importante para todas as mulheres que dão à luz e para os seus recém-nascidos, estabelecendo as bases para a melhoria da saúde e do bem-estar a curto e longo prazo. Uma experiência pós-natal positiva é definida como aquela em que as mulheres, pessoas que gestam, os recém-nascidos, os casais, os pais, os cuidadores e as famílias recebem informação consistente, garantia e apoio de profissionais de saúde motivados; e onde um sistema de saúde flexível e com recursos reconheça as necessidades das mulheres e dos bebês e respeite o seu contexto cultural.
Estas diretrizes consolidadas apresentam algumas recomendações novas e já bem fundamentadas sobre cuidados pós-natais de rotina para mulheres e neonatos que recebem cuidados no pós-parto em unidades de saúde ou na comunidade, independentemente dos recursos disponíveis.
É fornecido um conjunto abrangente de recomendações para cuidados durante o período puerperal, com ênfase nos cuidados essenciais que todas as mulheres e recém-nascidos devem receber, e com a devida atenção à qualidade dos cuidados; isto é, a entrega e a experiência do cuidado recebido. Estas diretrizes atualizam e ampliam as recomendações da OMS de 2014 sobre cuidados pós-natais da mãe e do recém-nascido e complementam as atuais diretrizes da OMS sobre a gestão de complicações pós-natais.
O estabelecimento da amamentação e o manejo das principais intercorrências é contemplada.
Recomendamos muito.
Vamos discutir essas recomendações no nosso curso de pós-graduação em Aleitamento no Instituto Ciclos.
Esta publicação só está disponível em inglês até o momento.

Ethanol (CH3CH2OH), or beverage alcohol, is a two-carbon alcohol
that is rapidly distributed in the body and brain. Ethanol alters many
neurochemical systems and has rewarding and addictive properties. It
is the oldest recreational drug and likely contributes to more morbidity,
mortality, and public health costs than all illicit drugs combined. The
5th edition of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders
(DSM-5) integrates alcohol abuse and alcohol dependence into a single
disorder called alcohol use disorder (AUD), with mild, moderate,
and severe subclassifications (American Psychiatric Association, 2013).
In the DSM-5, all types of substance abuse and dependence have been
combined into a single substance use disorder (SUD) on a continuum
from mild to severe. A diagnosis of AUD requires that at least two of
the 11 DSM-5 behaviors be present within a 12-month period (mild
AUD: 2–3 criteria; moderate AUD: 4–5 criteria; severe AUD: 6–11 criteria).
The four main behavioral effects of AUD are impaired control over
drinking, negative social consequences, risky use, and altered physiological
effects (tolerance, withdrawal). This chapter presents an overview
of the prevalence and harmful consequences of AUD in the U.S.,
the systemic nature of the disease, neurocircuitry and stages of AUD,
comorbidities, fetal alcohol spectrum disorders, genetic risk factors, and
pharmacotherapies for AUD.

Title: Sense of Smell
Presenter: Dr. Faiza, Assistant Professor of Physiology
Qualifications:
MBBS (Best Graduate, AIMC Lahore)
FCPS Physiology
ICMT, CHPE, DHPE (STMU)
MPH (GC University, Faisalabad)
MBA (Virtual University of Pakistan)
Learning Objectives:
Describe the primary categories of smells and the concept of odor blindness.
Explain the structure and location of the olfactory membrane and mucosa, including the types and roles of cells involved in olfaction.
Describe the pathway and mechanisms of olfactory signal transmission from the olfactory receptors to the brain.
Illustrate the biochemical cascade triggered by odorant binding to olfactory receptors, including the role of G-proteins and second messengers in generating an action potential.
Identify different types of olfactory disorders such as anosmia, hyposmia, hyperosmia, and dysosmia, including their potential causes.
Key Topics:
Olfactory Genes:
3% of the human genome accounts for olfactory genes.
400 genes for odorant receptors.
Olfactory Membrane:
Located in the superior part of the nasal cavity.
Medially: Folds downward along the superior septum.
Laterally: Folds over the superior turbinate and upper surface of the middle turbinate.
Total surface area: 5-10 square centimeters.
Olfactory Mucosa:
Olfactory Cells: Bipolar nerve cells derived from the CNS (100 million), with 4-25 olfactory cilia per cell.
Sustentacular Cells: Produce mucus and maintain ionic and molecular environment.
Basal Cells: Replace worn-out olfactory cells with an average lifespan of 1-2 months.
Bowman’s Gland: Secretes mucus.
Stimulation of Olfactory Cells:
Odorant dissolves in mucus and attaches to receptors on olfactory cilia.
Involves a cascade effect through G-proteins and second messengers, leading to depolarization and action potential generation in the olfactory nerve.
Quality of a Good Odorant:
Small (3-20 Carbon atoms), volatile, water-soluble, and lipid-soluble.
Facilitated by odorant-binding proteins in mucus.
Membrane Potential and Action Potential:
Resting membrane potential: -55mV.
Action potential frequency in the olfactory nerve increases with odorant strength.
Adaptation Towards the Sense of Smell:
Rapid adaptation within the first second, with further slow adaptation.
Psychological adaptation greater than receptor adaptation, involving feedback inhibition from the central nervous system.
Primary Sensations of Smell:
Camphoraceous, Musky, Floral, Pepperminty, Ethereal, Pungent, Putrid.
Odor Detection Threshold:
Examples: Hydrogen sulfide (0.0005 ppm), Methyl-mercaptan (0.002 ppm).
Some toxic substances are odorless at lethal concentrations.
Characteristics of Smell:
Odor blindness for single substances due to lack of appropriate receptor protein.
Behavioral and emotional influences of smell.
Transmission of Olfactory Signals:
From olfactory cells to glomeruli in the olfactory bulb, involving lateral inhibition.
Primitive, less old, and new olfactory systems with different path
6. Factors influencing risk of ARDS
• Chronic alcohol abuse
• Hypoproteinemia
• Advanced age
• Increased severity and extent of injury or illness
• Hypertransfusion of blood products
• Cigarette smoking
• Antiplatelet therapy is associated with reduced incidence of ALI
7. Factors influencing mortality from ARDS
• Advanced age
• Lower PaO2/FiO2
• High plateau pressure
• Greater extent of pulmonary infiltrates
• Chronic liver disease
• Nonpulmonary organ dysfunction
• Hypoproteinemia
• Greater length of hospitalization prior to onset of ALI/ARDS
8. CLINICAL PRESENTATION
• Rapid course – within 12 - 72 hours of the predisposing factor
• Dyspnea, tachypnea, tachycardia
• Acute confusion
• Cyanosis, and diaphoresis may be evident.
9. • Pulse oximetry – less than 85%
• Diffuse crackles on auscultation
• Cough, chest pain, wheeze, hemoptysis, and fever are inconsistent
and mostly driven by the underlying etiology.
10. DIAGNOSIS
• A thorough history and clinical examination
• Chest radiograph
• Laboratory studies
• Electrocardiography and echocardiography
• Microbiological studies
• Bronchoalveolar lavage
• Lung biopsy
11. Thorough History taking
• H/S/O infectious or aspiration pneumonia
• H/S/O cardiogenic pulmonary edema
• H/S/O cancer, vasculitis, or alveolar hemorrhage
• Abdominal symptoms (pain, vomiting, or diarrhea)
12. • Evidence of recent trauma, surgery, smoke or other toxin
inhalation, environmental or occupational exposures
• Transplant and transfusion history
13. Thorough clinical examination
Should assess for signs of
• Acute cardiogenic pulmonary edema
• Pneumonia
• Abdominal examination
• Skin
• Lymph nodes
• Dentition - for possible source of sepsis
• Volume status
14. Chest radiograph
• Diffuse bilateral alveolar infiltrates ( not fully explained by
effusion/collape/nodules)
• Infiltrates may be variable –
Mild or dense
Interstitial or alveolar
Patchy or confluent
16. RALE score
• To determine the RALE score, each radiograph was divided into
quadrants, defined vertically by the vertebral column and horizontally by
the first branch of the left main bronchus
• RALE score ranging from 0 (no infiltrates) to 48 (dense consolidation in
>75% of each quadrant).
• Excellent diagnostic accuracy for ARDS
• Predict severity, outcomes, and response to therapy in ARDS.
25. Extra-pulmonary
ARDS
• The dominant pattern is
ground glass opacity.
• In the dependent parts of
the lung there is also some
consolidation.
• An important finding is the
symmetry of the
abnormalities.
26. Pulmonary ARDS
• Patchy distribution of
lung disease and the
almost complete
distorsion more basal.
29. Echocardiography
Cause for acute hypoxemic respiratory failure
- Mitral valve stenosis/ regurgitation
- LV dilation or dysfunction
- Left ventricle wall motion abnormalities
30. Microbiological studies
• Respiratory tract sampling (eg, sputum or endotracheal aspirates)
• Blood cultures and sensitivity
• Urine Culture and senitivity
31. Bronchoalveolar Lavage (BAL)
• To evaluate patient who have ARDS of unknown origin
• Can be performed safely in patients with ARDS, except those with very low
PaO2 or those requiring high PEEP
• Principal indication is to rule in or rule out acute processes that may require
specific treatment
Eg- Acute Eosinophilic pneumonia and Diffuse Alveolar Hemmorhage
32. Lung Biopsy
• Not recommended in ARDS
• Reserved for Highly selective group of patients in whom alternate
diagnoses are possible and would significantly change the course of
management and prognosis.
33. 4 O – Onset , Opacity, Origin of Edema and Oxygenation
Onset
Within 1 week of a known clinical insult or new or
worsening respiratory symptoms
Chest imaging
Bilateral opacities — not fully explained by effusions,

THE BERLIN DEFENITION
34. Kigali modification of Berlin Definition of ARDS
• ARDS was defined
• Without the need of positive end expiratory pressure ( PEEP)
• Bilateral opacities on Chest radiograph or lung ultrasound
• Hypoxia SpO2/FiO2 ≤ 315
• Resource limited setting ( No PEEP and ABG )
35. Differential Diagnosis
D/D Characteristics
1. Cardiogenic Pulmonary Edema - H/O cardiac dysfunction
- ECG/ Echo showing LVF
- Chest XRAY – cardiomegaly,
vascular distribution towards
upper lobes, presence of septal
lines or kerley lines, perihilar
distribution of edema
- Rapid response to diuresis
36. D/D CHARACTERISTICS
2. Diffuse Alveolar Hemorrhage - Associated with autoimmune diseases like
vasculitis
- BAL fluid – hemosiderin laden
macrophages
- Responds to apheresis, steroids and other
immunosuppressants
3. Acute eosinophilic pneumonia - Present with cough, fever, pleuritic chest
pain, myalgia
- Do not have peripheral eosinophilia, but
BAL > 15 % of eosinophils
- Responds to high dose of corticosteroid
37. D/D Characteristics
4. Pulmonary alveolar proteinosis - Slower onset
- Crazy paving pattern on HRCT
- Treated with whole lung lavage
5. Disseminated malignancy - H/O malignancy
- Cytological preparations from
Bronchoscopy specimens may
reveal malignant cells
38. D/D Characteristics
6. Acute interstitial pneumonitis and
Hypersensitivity pneumonitis
- Slower onset than ARDS
- Treated with high dose of
corticosteroids
7. Acute major pulmonary embolus - Severe hypoxemia and hypotension
requiring vasopressors
- Risk factors for Pulmonary embolism
39. GOALS OF MANAGEMENT
• Treatment of respiratory system abnormalities
• Treatment of non-respiratory system abnormalities
40. Treatment of respiratory system abnormalities
• Diagnose and treat the precipitating cause
- Finding the foci of infection or the precipitating cause
- Aggressive source control – antibiotics, drainage, debridement
• Maintain oxygenation - preferably using nontoxic Fi O2 (0.70) ,PEEP,
mechanical ventilation
41. • Prevent ventilator-induced lung injury (VILI) by using a low tidal volume
ventilatory strategy (≤ 6 ml/kg) with a limit (≤30 cm H2O) on static end-inspiratory
airway pressure (plateau pressure)
• Keep pH in normal range 7.30–7.45
• Enhance patient-ventilator synchrony and patient comfort - by use of sedation,
amnesia, opioid analgesia, and pharmacologic paralysis, if necessary
• Liberate or wean from mechanical ventilation when patient can breathe without
assisted ventilation
42. Treatment of non-respiratory system
abnormalities
• Support or treat other organ system dysfunction or failure
• General critical care (preventive and homeostatic
measures)
• Adequate early nutritional support
43. Fluid Strategy in ARDS
• ARDSNet FACTT (Fluid and Catheter Treatment Trial) supports the use of a
conservative fluid strategy in managing patients with ARDS who are not in
shock
• For acute resuscitation of adults with shock, the following are suggested:
• Measuring dynamic parameters to assess fluid responsiveness
• Using a conservative fluid administration strategy and using crystalloids
over colloids
• Balanced crystalloids are preferred over unbalanced crystalloids
45. Corticosteroid
• (SSCM/ESICM) issued a conditional recommendation favoring
glucocorticoids in patients with early (within 14 days of onset)
persistent or refractory moderate to severe ARDS
• Glucocorticoids is not recommended in patients with less severe
ARDS and beyond 14 days after ARDS onset (increase mortality).
• Methylprednisolone - 1 mg/kg/day
48. PROSEVA Trial
(Prone positioning for Severe ARDS )
• Multicenter, prospective, randomized, controlled trial
• Prone-positioning sessions of at least 16 hours
• The 28-day mortality was 16.0% in the prone group and 32.8% in the
supine group (P<0.001)
• Unadjusted 90-day mortality was 23.6% in the prone group versus
41.0% in the supine group (P<0.001)
N Engl J Med 2013; 368:2159-2168
49. Proning ventilation recomendation
For adults receiving mechanical ventilation who have moderate to
severe ARDS, prone ventilation for 12 to 16 hours is suggested over no
prone ventilation .
51. Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO)
A technique of life support that consists
of diverting a fraction of the patient’s blood
flow (BF) through an artificial lung for gas
exchange (oxygenation and carbon dioxide
[CO2] removal) and then returning it to the
patient.
Among patients with very severe ARDS, 60-day mortality was not significantly lower with ECMO
52. • Venovenous ECMO - Reduced 60-day mortality.
• Associated with a moderate risk of major bleeding
53. High Frequency Oscillatory Ventilation
• HFOV is the use of very small tidal volumes oscillating around a very high
mean airway pressure, thus limiting both volutrauma and atelectrauma.
• Mild ARDS – not utilised
55. ARDS PROGNOSIS
• 1/3rd of deaths - < 7 days
• 2/3rd of death - < 14 days
• Mortality beyond > 28 days - 30 %
