Allergic rhinitis is an IgE-mediated inflammatory disorder of the nose induced by exposure to allergens like pollen, mold, dust mites, etc. It is characterized by symptoms of sneezing, rhinorrhea, nasal itching and congestion. It can be seasonal or perennial depending on the allergen. Diagnosis is based on history, examination and allergy testing. Treatment involves allergen avoidance, intranasal corticosteroids, oral antihistamines, immunotherapy for severe cases. Non-allergic rhinitis like vasomotor rhinitis can present similarly but tests are negative for allergies. Prolonged use of decongestants can cause

Allergic rhinitis is a very common disorder that affects people of all ages. It is frequently ignored, under diagnosed, misdiagnosed, and mistreated, which not only is detrimental to health but also has societal costs. Although allergic rhinitis is not a serious illness, it is clinically relevant because it underlies many complications, is a major risk factor for poor asthma control, and affects quality of life and productivity at work or school. Hidden direct costs include the treatment of co-morbid asthma, chronic sinusitis, otitis media, upper respiratory infection, and nasal polyp. Nasal congestion, the most prominent symptom in AR, is associated with sleep-disordered breathing, a condition that can have a profound effect on mental health, including increased psychiatric disorders, depression, anxiety, and alcohol abuse. Furthermore, sleep-disordered breathing in childhood and adolescence is associated with increased disorders of learning performance, behavior, and attention. Management of allergic rhinitis is best when directed by guidelines. At this juncture Homoeopathic system of medicine offers a safe and effective solution of the illness if followed under the guidance of expertise. This article provides an overview of the patho-physiology, diagnosis, and appropriate homoeopathic management of this disorder.

Allergic rhinitis is an allergic inflammation of the nasal airways. It occurs when an allergen, such as pollen, dust, or animal dander (particles of shed skin and hair) is inhaled by an individual with a sensitized immune system. In such individuals, the allergen triggers the production of the antibody immunoglobulin E (IgE).
Allergic rhinitis is a very much prevalent condition in the community. This presentation hopes to spread a ray of hope in treating allergic and intrinsic rhinitis.

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

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
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.

mediated inflammation after allergen exposure
• Symptoms: rhinorrhoea
itching (eyes, nose, palate)
sneezing
nasal congestion/obstruction
This Photo by Unknown Author is licensed under CC BY
4. Types:
• Seasonal (summer/ spring/ early autumn)
tree pollens, grass pollens, mold spores
lasts for several weeks, disappears and recurs following
year at the same time
• Perennial
-inhaled: house dust, wool, feathers, foods, tobacco
-ingested: wheat, eggs, milk, nuts
occurs intermittently for years with no pattern or may be
constantly present
Allergic Rhinitis
5. Etiology
• Inhalant allergens
– Pollen, mould spores, house dust, debris from
insect and house mites
• Genetic predisposition
– Gene-5q, 11q, 12q
8. • Four phases
– Sensitization
– Subsequent reaction to allergen-early phase
– Late phase reaction
– Systemic activation
9. Clinical features
• Nasal obstruction with pruritis, sneezing
• Clear rhinorrhoea (containing increased
eosinophils)
• Itching of eyes with tearing
10. ON EXAMINATION
• Mucosa edematous, pale or bluish in color
• Thin watery or mucoid discharge
• long-standing - enlarged inferior turbinates
• Allergic salute transverse nasal skin crease from rubbing
the nose
• Retracted TM-ETD
• Eye-odema of eyelids, congestion and cobble stone
appearance of conjuctiva
• Pharynx-granular pharyngitis.
11. Diagnosis
• Hx- some/all classical Sx
- Px of other atopic disorders
- Fam Hx allergy/allergic rhinitis
• Examination
– Pale or bluish edematous nasal mucosa
– conjunctivitis, granular pharyngitis
– long-standing - enlarged inferior turbinates

12. Investigations
• Blood tests
– total serum IgE
– RAST for specific IgE
• Nasal smear-clinically active disease.
• Skin prick Test
– simple cheap n safe
– Identify the specific allergen.
14. Treatment
Intranasal Corticosteroids
• spray/drops
• anti-inflammatory FX, inhibit mediator release from mast cells
• use as first line Rx esp. if mod- severe Sx
• SE: irritation, crusting, epistaxis
Oral corticosteroids
• limited use because of SE
• useful if immediate symptoms relief required e.g. for
important event
15. Treatment
Anti-histamines
• 1st line for mild Sx/add-on for severe
disease inadequately controlled by I-N
steroids.
• more beneficial for sneezing, rhinorrhoea,
itching nose.
17. Treatment
Mast Cell Stabilisers
Sodium Cromoglycate
stabilises mast cells and prevents degranulation
2% drop or spray
Decongestants
Xylometazoline (Otrivine)- available as nasal
drops/sprays
Relieves nasal obstrution
If used > 1/52- rebound congestion
18.
19. ADVANCEMENT
Immunotherapy
• Repeated administration of an allergen extract in
order to induce a state of immunological tolerance.
• Indication
– Severe symptoms who fail to respond
adequately to usual treatment.
– Inability to avoid allergen
– Limited spectrum of allergen
20. The way it works..
• Results in blunting of seasonal increases in allergen specific Ig
E
• Increase in blocking Ig G antibodies
• Inhibition of recruitment and activation of inflammatory cells
to mucosal surfaces including mast cells
• Practical immunotherapy
– Updosing phase-weekly injection for 8-16 wks
– Maintenance phase- (4-8)wkly injection for 3-5 yrs.
– Hospital based clinics by trained staff.
21. Nonallergic perennial rhinitis
• Idiopathic rhinitis (vasomotor rhinitis) or nonallergic
noninfectious perennial rhinitis(NANIPER)
• Occupational
• Hormonal
• Drug induced
• NARES-non allergic rhinitis with eosinophilia syndrome
• Others-atrophic rhinitis, food induced rhinitis, emotion
induced rhinitis, rhinitis due to physical n chemical factors
22. Vasomotor rhinitis
• Nonallergic rhinitis
• Symptoms persists throughout the year
• Tests of nasal allergy-negative
• Etiology
– Idiopathic
– Triggered by irritants and changes in atmospheric
condition
• Pathophysiology-imbalance between sympathetic
and parasympathetic NS
