This campaign by Alaxan FR, a pain reliever brand in the Philippines, sought to overcome challenges from new competitors by changing how pain relievers are perceived. [1] The insight was that Filipinos saw pain as a badge of honor rather than weakness. [2] The "My Pain is My Glory" campaign celebrated pain and hard work, featuring Manny Pacquiao. [3] It shifted culture to embrace hard work, and significantly grew Alaxan FR's market share while others declined.

The What If Technique presented by Motivate DesignMotivate Design
Why "What If"...?
The What If Technique tackles the challenge of engaging a creative, disruptive mindset when it comes to design thinking and crafting innovative user experiences.
Thinking disruptively is a disruptive thing to do, which means it's a very hard thing to do, especially when you add in risk-averse business leaders and company cultures, who hold on tight to psychological blocks, corporate lore, and excuse personas that stifle creativity and possibilities (see www.motivatedesign.com/what-if for more details).
The What If Technique offers key steps, tools and examples to help you achieve incremental changes that promote disruptive thinking, overcome barriers to creativity, and lead to big, innovative differences for business leaders, companies, and ultimately user experiences and products.

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.

Follow us on: Pinterest
Introduction
Many have been interested in Tom Selleck health. not only because of his enduring presence on screen but also because of the challenges. and lifestyle choices he has faced and made over the years. This article delves into the various aspects of Tom Selleck health. exploring his fitness regimen, diet, mental health. and the challenges he has encountered as he ages. We'll look at how he maintains his well-being. the health issues he has faced, and his approach to ageing .
Early Life and Career
Childhood and Athletic Beginnings
Tom Selleck was born on January 29, 1945, in Detroit, Michigan, and grew up in Sherman Oaks, California. From an early age, he was involved in sports, particularly basketball. which played a significant role in his physical development. His athletic pursuits continued into college. where he attended the University of Southern California (USC) on a basketball scholarship. This early involvement in sports laid a strong foundation for his physical health and disciplined lifestyle.
Transition to Acting
Selleck's transition from an athlete to an actor came with its physical demands. His first significant role in "Magnum P.I." required him to perform various stunts and maintain a fit appearance. This role, which he played from 1980 to 1988. necessitated a rigorous fitness routine to meet the show's demands. setting the stage for his long-term commitment to health and wellness.
Fitness Regimen
Workout Routine
Tom Selleck health and fitness regimen has evolved. adapting to his changing roles and age. During his "Magnum, P.I." days. Selleck's workouts were intense and focused on building and maintaining muscle mass. His routine included weightlifting, cardiovascular exercises. and specific training for the stunts he performed on the show.
Selleck adjusted his fitness routine as he aged to suit his body's needs. Today, his workouts focus on maintaining flexibility, strength, and cardiovascular health. He incorporates low-impact exercises such as swimming, walking, and light weightlifting. This balanced approach helps him stay fit without putting undue strain on his joints and muscles.

In recent years, Selleck has emphasized the importance of flexibility and mobility in his fitness regimen. Understanding the natural decline in muscle mass and joint flexibility with age. he includes stretching and yoga in his routine. These practices help prevent injuries, improve posture, and maintain mobilit
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

Campaign Summary:
– My Pain Is My Glory
How celebrating pain saved a pain reliever brand from category decline
Challenges and Objectives:
– Alaxan FR (Fast Release), a local pain reliever brand was beset
with challenges from new entrants, generics, alternatives and
stocking issues. Unless a major shift occurred, decline was
certain. Our mission was to overcome these challenges, protect
market share and secure brand dominance in the category.
Target Market:
– Working class Filipinos whose hard physical jobs frequently
cause body pain.
3. ALAXAN FR
Best Insights, Strategic inking
Insight and Strategy:
– Pain relievers have always presented themselves as an effective way to escape
pain. It was also observed that low health seeking behavior amongst men was a
persistent barrier to product uptake. Connecting the dots, we realized that
many men and women considered pain as a badge of honor and a symbol of
commitment, and that taking a pain reliever was seen as a sign of weakness. It
became clear that we would have to fundamentally change how pain relievers
communicate themselves to the market; from a symbol of weakness to a badge
of honor.
Working together with the brand and its partner agencies, we created a
campaign that celebrated pain and hard work. e campaign was titled: “Aray
Ko, Galing Ko,” which translates to: “My Pain, My Glory,” and features boxing
champion and national hero Manny Pacquiao. e advertising campaign was
supercharged with a digital search for the toughest jobs in the Philippines and
punctuated on the front page of national newspapers with the unveiling of a
statue dedicated to hard work, immortalizing Pacquiao and four of the hardest
working professions in the country.

Results:
What made the insights of this campaign so special?
1. It’s the rst time a pain reliever brand adds social symbolic
value to its value proposition; making Alaxan FR the rst ever
pain reliever that could be taken as a badge of honor and not an
admission of weakness.
• Evidence:
i. Independent surveys demonstrated that perception of
Alaxan FR as “too expensive” dropped by 43% versus
the previous year.
ii. e product, price and distribution did not change
iii. e emotive power of the campaign created
unprecedented brand health.

ii. He won amongst hundreds of entrants by garnering
over 6,000 votes. A power plant chemist, he ew home
from the UK to be awarded and claim his trophy.
iii. e message was clear and embraced by the country:

Results:
3. A higher social was at the core of the campaign
• Evidence:
i. e campaign was founded on the realization that Filipinos honor
wealth and fame a lot more than they do their own hard work.
ii. It became our mission to shift the culture from one that treated
hard work as hardship and tragedy to one that embraced the
nobility and national unity of hard work.
iii. e television campaign “Ayay Ko Galing Ko” (My Pain Is My
Glory) nally rationalized endorser Manny Pacquiao’s (boxing
world champion) role with the brand, making Alaxan FR one of
the products most associated with the champ.
iv. e nobility of the campaign saved it from critics when one of
Philippine television’s most popular and most controversial
celebrities decided to label an installation as “unlucky” to Manny
Pacquiao. A press conference held by the brand explained that this
was to honor hard work, and not one man effectively neutralized
the issue and opened the door to a lot of positive coverage.

Results:
4. Brand Performance: Alaxan FR experienced growth while others
in the category either declined or left the segment.

Results:
5. Campaign activities made front page news.
• Evidence:
i. In a symbolic gesture to honor hard working Filipinos,
Alaxan FR commissioned a statue dedicated to hard
work. It honored Manny Pacquiao and four of the
hardest working professions (teachers, farmers,
construction workers and nurses) in the Philippines.
e largest retailer in the country was so inspired by
the installation that they donated prime bay-walk space
in SM Mall of Asia (one of the largest malls in the
world) to permanently display it.
ii. e unveiling appeared on the front page, upper fold of
four of the nation’s newspapers.
iii. It also generated 29 million pesos in earned media
coverage in print, online and on TV.
