The document discusses various ways of understanding memory, including the length of storage, type of information remembered, and stages involved. It describes different memory models and then discusses various memory disturbances and disorders. Transient amnesias include transient global amnesia, transient epileptic amnesia, and alcoholic blackouts. Persistent memory disorders discussed include Korsakoff syndrome, herpes encephalitis, hypoxia, vascular disorders, and head injuries. Organic amnesic syndromes and their characteristics are also described.
The word delirium means “out of one’s furrow” which refers to the dramatic behavior changes that the person may experience. Some have called delirium "brain failure” because it may represent a variety of caused such as heart failure does in cardiac health.
Delirium is an outcome of a general medical condition, head injury and drug intoxication or withdrawal.
Impulse-control disorders (ICDs) are psychological disorders characterized by the repeated inability to refrain from performing a particular action that is harmful either to oneself or others.
The individual fails to resist performing a potentially harmful act and it is usually accompanied by a sense of tension or arousal before committing the act and a sense of relief or pleasure when it is committed.
The hallmark in describing any of the ICDs is a tendency to gratify an immediate desire or impulse regardless of the consequences to one's self or to others.

Amnesia means loss of memory sometimes including the memory of personal identity due to brain injury, shock, fatigue, repression or illness. The main cause of Amnesia is brain damage. There are six different types of amnesia includes anterograde amnesia, retrograde amnesia, Transient Global Amnesia, Dissociative amnesia, Infantile amnesia, Wernike-Korsakoff's psychosis. physical examination, Cognitive tests and Imaging tests are used to diagnosis of amnesia. Treatment includes Cognitive therapy, Psychotherapy and occupational therapy.
Patients with Multiple Sclerosis and Short-Term Memory Difficultieskomalicarol
Μemory by itself as a function, loses its capabilities with a normal
deterioration. However, there are acquired conditions that negatively affect the functions of memory, resulting in dysfunction
of its stages. Thus possible damage to the structures of the hemisphere that controls these processes disrupts the comprehension,
organization and categorization of the material to be memorized.
Patients with damage to these systems will have difficulty remembering because they have not adequately coded the material.
Here we'll discuss the Memory Disorders and their types. We'll learn about 3 types of memories. We'll discuss Amnesia and the types of amnesia as well as the various other pathologies related to memory. Hope this will help you all

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.

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

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.

Tom Selleck, an enduring figure in Hollywood. has captivated audiences for decades with his rugged charm, iconic moustache. and memorable roles in television and film. From his breakout role as Thomas Magnum in Magnum P.I. to his current portrayal of Frank Reagan in Blue Bloods. Selleck's career has spanned over 50 years. But beyond his professional achievements. fans have often been curious about Tom Selleck Health. especially as he has aged in the public eye.
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.
Importance of Flexibility and Mobility
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

9. TRANSIENT AMNESIAS
Transient global amnesia (TGA)
Transient epileptic amnesia
Head injury
Alcoholic blackouts

Posttraumatic stress disorder
Psychogenic fugue
Amnesia for offence
10. Transient Global Amnesia (TGA)
Most commonly occurs in the middle-aged or
elderly, more frequently in men.
It is characterized by repetitive questioning, and
there may be some confusion, but patients do not
report any loss of personal identity (they know
who they are).
It is sometimes preceded by headache or
nausea, a stressful life event, a medical
procedure, or vigorous exercise.
Hodges & Ward found the mean duration of
amnesia was 4 h and the maximum was 12 h.
Transient dysfunction in limbic–hippocampal
circuits, crucial to memory formationHodges, J.R. and Ward, C.D. (1989). Observations during transient global amnesia: a behavioural and neuropsychological study of five cases. Brain
11. Transient Epileptic Amnesia
This refers to the minority of patients with
transient global amnesia in whom epilepsy
appears to be the underlying cause of the
syndrome.
AUTOMATISMS or POSTICTAL CONFUSIONAL
STATES
Bilateral involvement of the limbic structures
involved in memory formation,
including the hippocampal and parahippocampal structures
bilaterally as well as the mesial diencephalon.
Amnesia for the period of automatic behaviour is
always present and is usually complete.
12. Head Injury
Post-traumatic amnesia is generally assumed to
reflect the degree of underlying diffuse brain
pathology, in particular rotational forces giving
rise to axonal tearing and generalized cognitive
impairment.
The length of post-traumatic amnesia is predictive
of eventual cognitive outcome, psychiatric
outcome, and social outcome
Need to be differentiated from persisting
anterograde memory impairment
13. ALCOHOLIC BLACKOUTS
Blackouts are periods of amnesia for events that
occur during heavy drinking.
They are associated with severe intoxication,
usually in the context of a history of prolonged
alcohol abuse
Typically, a person awakens the morning after
consumption and does not remember what
happened the night before.
Blackouts are more a measure of the amount of
alcohol consumed at any one time.
Should not be confused with withdrawal seizures
or other ictal phenomena
14.
15. After Electroconvulsive Therapy
This is an iatrogenic form of transient amnesia.
Benzodiazepines and anticholinergic agents can
also give rise to transient memory loss in more
moderate form
Subjects tested within a few hours of
electroconvulsive therapy (ECT) show a
retrograde impairment for information from the
preceding 1 to 3 years, a pronounced
anterograde memory impairment on both recall
and recognition memory tasks, and an
accelerated rate of forgetting.(13)
When retested approximately 6 to 9 months after
completion of a course of ECT, memory returns to
normal on objective tests.

Clinical features
Retrograde amnesia that extend back many years
or decade
Anterograde amnesia
Confabulation
Etiology – thiamine deficiency
Associated with Wernike encephalopathy in
alcoholics
Pathology – lesion affecting mammillary bodies,
the mammillothalamic tract, or the anterior
thalamus
22. What is affected? What is impaired?
Anterograde amnesia, episodic memory:
dramatic inability to learn something new after
the onset of amnesia due to inability to build up
new episodes.
Retrograde amnesia, an inability to retrieve
information that was learned prior to the
onset of amnesia if it was not purely
semantic or implicit memory
Impaired temporal localization of past
experience, as in Korsakoff, which leads
to confabulation
Autobiographic memory also intact, but
amnesic for recent events before onset
of amnesia

24. Confabulation
‘‘False statements that are not made to deceive,
are typically more coherent than thoughts
produced during delirium”
It ranges from small distortions on laboratory
tasks to striking bizarre stories that patients tell in
describing their personal histories
Typically occurs in the context of executive
deficits such as perseveration, poor self-
monitoring, and difficulty with self-initiated
processes
25. Confabulation Disorders
1. ‘Spontaneous' confabulation, in which there is a
persistent, unprovoked outpouring of erroneous
memories
Arises in confusional states and in frontal lobe
disease
E.g., Wernicke encephalopathy
2. ‘Momentary' or ‘provoked' confabulation, in
which fleeting intrusion errors or distortions are
seen in response to a challenge to memory,
such as a memory test
Occurs when memory is weak
E.g., Korsakoff syndrome, dementias and other
clinical amnesic syndromes
26. Semantic Dementia
Characterized by loss of semantic memory in
both the verbal and non-verbal domains
Associated with predominantly temporal lobe
atrophy (left greater than right) and hence is
sometimes called temporal variant FTLD
(tvFTLD)
Structural MRI imaging shows a characteristic
pattern of atrophy in the temporal lobes
(predominantly on the left) with inferior greater
than superior involvement and anterior temporal
lobe atrophy greater than posterior.
