How to Spot Elder Abuse and Mistreatment-
This slideshow represents a synopsis of information on the signs that an elder is being abused or mistreated systematically or by someone close to them.
Following our attendance to the Elder Abuse Conference in NYC on June 5, 2013, my colleague and I developed a series of presentations to provide in our community to increase awareness of this important issue. We hope that this slideshow will help the community to understand and identify elder abuse or mistreatment.
As seniors grow older, they will become more physically & mentally frail. Because of this, they’re less able to stand up to bullying and/or fight back if attacked by other people.

Ruth Hennessy, Psychology Unit Manager/Senior Clinical Psychologist, Albion Street Centre
In response to the gaps in the 2006 NSW Health Domestic Violence Screening Policy, Albion Street Centre developed a research project to explore clients’ experience of DV, helpseeking behaviours and whether HIV was a factor in any abuse experienced.
Anonymous surveys were completed by 102 clients attending the Albion Street Centre, over two separate four week periods. This
podium presentation will report the findings of the survey and contribute to improving health care worker’s understanding of
DV and SSDV within HIV positive clients’ relationships.
What is Sexual Addiction? Sex Addiction is a pathological relationship with a mood-altering experience. This presentation will cover the types of sex addiction, the levels and many other aspects.
Everyone is capable of committing a crime. In fact, we’re all probably guilty of bending the law at one point or another. But a lot of research has been done to find out what kind of people become criminals, and what environmental factors may lead someone to break the law.

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!

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
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

3. One in ten
people admits to sexual addiction, but that number is likely higher.
And it always affects more than just the individual.
4. 47%
of families report pornography
is a problem in their homes.
In fact, the American Academy of Matrimonial Lawyers reported in 2002 that
56 percent of their attorneys said “an obsessive interest in pornographic
websites” played a significant factor in divorce cases in the previous year.
And that was an entire decade ago.
5. Studies have shown that increased exposure to pornography
decreases the value one places on the institution of
marriage, one’s desire for children, and the need for
faithfulness in a relationship.
6. 70%

areas of their lives and require
professional support.
8. At Addo Recovery, we help to restore healthy lives.
Through 15 years of research and experience with sexual
addiction recovery and its related issues, we’ve developed
a personalized approach to
helping families heal from
the trauma associated
with addiction.
9. Our primary focus is offering support to addicts
and their spouses. We offer a wide array of
services specially designed to help
heal those closest to the issue.
Some of those services include:
- A six-week, group workshop series
- Individual & couples therapy
- Pornography & sexual addiction
- Betrayal trauma felt by the spouse
- Relationship Counseling
- Anxiety & Depression
- Personalized online workshops & exercises.
- Mind & body yoga classes.
10. In a recent study
86%
of couples who talk openly, and
work together on this issue
stayed together as a family.
11. In many cases, the first contact an
addict or affected spouse will have
is with a local religious leader. When
religious leaders are well prepared,
their help can dramatically improve
healing and recovery.
However, if a religious leader is
unprepared or unsupportive, it can
seriously hinder recovery.
12. As a free service, we provide classes, resources and training to
local clergy leaders to help them be prepared for many of the
needs their congregations may have.
Some of the topics we offer are:
- The science and indicators of pornography addiction
- How to identify betrayal trauma in the spouse
- How to counsel & determine the need for professional help
- What addiction recovery looks like
- How to effectively discuss these topics with their congregation
13. Healing can happen,
and Addo can help.
Whether it’s for you, a loved one, or your congregation, please
take the time to learn more about how Addo can restore
families to healthy lives at www.addorecovery.com.
