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
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.
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

Cardiac conduction defects can occur due to various causes.
Atrioventricular conduction blocks ( AV blocks ) are classified into 3 types.
This document describes the acute management of AV block.
2. • The knee joint includes bones, ligaments, tendons, cartilage, and bursal sac. Hence, it is considered
the most complex joint of the human body. All these parts should work together in a coordinated
manner for various routine activities like walking, running, jumping, and bending.
• The central part of the knee joint includes the thigh bone (femur), shinbone (tibia), and kneecap
(patella). It is the connecting link between the shinbone and the thigh bone, where it helps many other
body parts to work. The lubricant present in the bursa works as a cushioning agent between your
knee bones to prevent the occurrence of any friction.
• Any injury in this knee region causes pain. Knee pain either goes away on its own or aggravates.
However, it would help if you never ignored several other symptoms along with the knee pain. Let us
go through those five knee pain symptoms one by one:
3. 5 SYMPTOMS OF COMMON KNEE AILMENTS
Consistent pain
while walking or
climbing stairs
Something
moving inside
Noise in the
knee
Knee Instability
Swelling in the
knee
4. HOW SHOULD YOU HANDLE YOUR KNEE INJURY?
• While playing sports or performing some activities, your knee may get injured. You
may experience symptoms like knee pain and swelling of the knee joint right away.
• Whatever might be the symptoms, it is always better not to ignore them. Please
consult an orthopaedic doctor and let them check your knee condition. The problem
might be minor or major—the earlier the diagnosis, the better the treatment.
• If there is a tear in your meniscus, ACL, LCL, or MCL, you may require appropriate
treatment. In that case, determining the cause of the condition as soon as possible
might prevent the need to take invasive steps in the later stage.
5. WHAT ARE THE MAJOR CAUSES OF KNEE PAIN THAT
REQUIRE URGENT MEDICAL ATTENTION?
Injuries
•Fracture
•Knee bursitis
•Meniscus Tear
•ACL injury
•Patellar tendinitis
7. Mechanical issues
• Iliotibial band syndrome
• Knee dislocation
• Loose body
• Hip and foot pain
What are the major causes of knee pain
that require urgent medical attention?
8. WHAT ARE THE RISK FACTORS THAT MAY
AGGRAVATE THE SYMPTOMS OF KNEE PAIN?
• Certain risk factors such as being overweight, past knee injuries, lack of muscle
strength and flexibility, and certain sports like basketball and skiing can aggravate
your knee pain and the associated symptoms.
9. THE FINAL TAKEAWAY
• It is always better to consult a doctor right away and understand the reason for joint pain and other
associated symptoms listed above. If the condition proves severe after diagnosis, it is always better to
treat it right away.
• Are you looking for a one-stop solution for Knee Pain Treatment that resolves pain and other
symptoms faster and without any adverse complications? Opt for regenerative treatment.
• Regenerative medicine is a revolutionary treatment that aims at treating the underlying cause of the
condition instead of just masking the symptoms. Furthermore, this treatment involves your body
cells. Hence, there isn’t any risk of allergy or rejection. This non-surgical treatment includes Stem Cell
Therapy, Goldic Treatment, and PRP (Platelet Rich Plasma Therapy).
• If you want to get rid of symptoms for a prolonged duration, reach out to our medical team. And
schedule an appointment at the respective medical clinic. During the consultation, our medical
experts will determine the cause of the knee pain and let you know whether you are eligible to
undergo regenerative joint pain treatment.
• So, before proceeding with surgery or other conservative methods like physical therapy, non-steroidal
anti-inflammatory medications, and steroid therapy, do not miss out on your consultation with
experts in regenerative medicine.
