This document summarizes the pulmonary management of a 19-year-old male patient with a complete thoracic spinal cord injury and internal injuries from a gunshot wound. After two weeks of daily inspiratory muscle training (IMT) using a resistance device, the patient showed improvements in measures of chest excursion, incentive spirometry, breath support, and timed mobility tests. While IMT appeared beneficial for this patient, further research is needed to determine its efficacy for individuals with paraplegia using larger sample sizes and controlling for confounding variables. Pulmonary management can help improve respiratory status and function for those with spinal cord injuries.

Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) is the fastest growing form of heart failure in the United States and is associated with high morbidity and mortality. It refers to the preserved left ventricular (LV) ejection fraction and this phenotype is more common in older individuals, women, and those with history of hypertension, obesity, and anemia. (Benjamin et al., 2019, Fukuta et al., 2019) Exercise intolerance ( decreased peak oxygen uptake and · Vo2peak) secondary to impaired cardiac, vascular, and skeletal muscle function is a hallmark feature in clinically stable HFpEF patients and is associated with reduced quality of life

Effect of Inspiratory Muscle Training on Muscle Strength and
Quality of Life in Patients With Chronic Airflow Limitation:
a Randomized Controlled Trial
Abstract— Respiratory complications are major sources of morbidity and mortality in spinal cord injury (SCI). Improvement in expiratory muscle strength may be associated with improved cough and clearance of secretions. So that expiratory muscle training are advised in SCI cases to improve expiratory muscle strength. This study was conducted to compare the effect of Resistance and Sham training on pulmonary function test in spinal cord injury cases. It was found the mean value of all the parameters of PFT of Sham training was found to increase from baseline to 1st and 2nd follow up. This difference was found significant in all the parameters of PFT at 2nd follow up, but FEV1 and PIFR of 1st follow up (p value < 0.05) only. Likewise, it is also observed that the mean value of all the parameters of PFT of test group was found to increase from baseline to 1st and 2nd follow up. This difference was found highly significant (p value <0.001) in all the parameters of PFT at 1st and 2nd follow up. So it can be concluded that however both the type of training improve PFTs but the improvement of high resistance training was significantly more than they were for sham training.

Abstract
Background: Physiotherapy is multi-dimensional and can treat a vast variety of conditions, ranging from musculoskeletal aches, arthritis, joints problems, paraplegia, hemiplegic, sports injuries and frozen shoulder etc. Apart from culture competency and core medical knowledge a physiotherapist must be competent enough in all physiotherapist medical conditions where physical therapy plays a vital role. This study aims to identify the frequency of common clinical conditions among client presented at Habib Physiotherapy Complex (HPC), Hayatabad during 2010.
Methodology: This was a descriptive study; the data were retrieved from record register of HPC (Indoor and Outdoor patients) recording their presenting complaints and known diagnoses. Data was collected on a structure grid. Data was analyzed using SPSS version 15 and presented in term of frequency and percentages.
Result: The majority of clients (1280 (29%)) were suffering from low back pain. The second common condition 891(20%) was osteoarthritis of the knee joint and cerebrovascular accidents 824(18.4%), while cervical pain accounted for 734(16.4%). The rest of clinical conditions included; frozen shoulder, pelvic inflammation, cerebral palsy, polio effected and paraplegia.
Conclusion: The Study reveals the occurrence of Osteoarthritis (Low Back, Cervical Pain, and Knee Joints Pain) were the most common condition which deteriorated the performance of common individuals in our society.

RESULTS: Overall life span (LS) was 2252.1±1742.5 days and cumulative 5-year survival (5YS) reached 73.2%, 10 years – 64.8%, 20 years – 42.5%. 513 LCP lived more than 5 years (LS=3124.6±1525.6 days), 148 LCP – more than 10 years (LS=5054.4±1504.1 days).199 LCP died because of LC (LS=562.7±374.5 days). 5YS of LCP after bi/lobectomies was significantly superior in comparison with LCP after pneumonectomies (78.1% vs.63.7%, P=0.00001 by log-rank test). AT significantly improved 5YS (66.3% vs. 34.8%) (P=0.00000 by log-rank test) only for LCP with N1-2. Cox modeling displayed that 5YS of LCP significantly depended on: phase transition (PT) early-invasive LC in terms of synergetics, PT N0—N12, cell ratio factors (ratio between cancer cells- CC and blood cells subpopulations), G1-3, histology, glucose, AT, blood cell circuit, prothrombin index, heparin tolerance, recalcification time (P=0.000-0.038). Neural networks, genetic algorithm selection and bootstrap simulation revealed relationships between 5YS and PT early-invasive LC (rank=1), PT N0—N12 (rank=2), thrombocytes/CC (3), erythrocytes/CC (4), eosinophils/CC (5), healthy cells/CC (6), lymphocytes/CC (7), segmented neutrophils/CC (8), stick neutrophils/CC (9), monocytes/CC (10); leucocytes/CC (11). Correct prediction of 5YS was 100% by neural networks computing (area under ROC curve=1.0; error=0.0).
CONCLUSIONS: 5YS of LCP after radical procedures significantly depended on: 1) PT early-invasive cancer; 2) PT N0--N12; 3) cell ratio factors; 4) blood cell circuit; 5) biochemical factors; 6) hemostasis system; 7) AT; 8) LC characteristics; 9) LC cell dynamics; 10) surgery type: lobectomy/pneumonectomy; 11) anthropometric data. Optimal diagnosis and treatment strategies for LC are: 1) screening and early detection of LC; 2) availability of experienced thoracic surgeons because of complexity of radical procedures; 3) aggressive en block surgery and adequate lymph node dissection for completeness; 4) precise prediction; 5) adjuvant chemoimmunoradiotherapy for LCP with unfavorable prognosis.

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

![Introduction Pulmonary Management of a Patient With Complete Thoracic Spinal Cord Injury and Coexisting Internal Injuries Amy C. Van Dyke, PT; Janet Parker, MSPT; Robin Myers, PT, NCS MossRehab Neurologic Physical Therapy Residency Program, Philadelphia, PA Respiratory complications are the most prevalent source of morbidity and mortality in persons with SCI. 1 There are documented studies indicating that inspiratory muscle training (IMT) over 6-8 weeks is effective in persons with tetraplegia 2-7 ; however, no studies exist that examine IMT in persons with paraplegia. Acute rehabilitation length of stay has decreased significantly over the past decade. The purpose of this report was to clinically examine and describe pulmonary status after IMT daily for two weeks in a single subject with paraplegia. A 19-year-old male who sustained a complete SCI secondary to GSW to the chest, transecting the spinal cord at T12-L1. Other injuries sustained during bullet trajectory include diaphragm tear, liver laceration, stomach tear, left lung contusion, and rib and vertebral body fractures. Acute hospitalization lasted 27 days, complicated by two exploratory laparotomies, (L) thoracotomy with lysis of adhesions, placement of PEG tube, and needle pleurocentesis for (R) pneumothorax. After 2 weeks of training, upper and lower chest excursion increased by 88% and 36% respectively; incentive spirometry increased by 15%; breath support increased by 1%; and timed mobility improved by 161% (2-Min) and 86% (6-Min). There were no observable changes in breathing pattern or cough. ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],With a decrease in acute inpatient rehabilitation lengths of stay over the past decade, physical therapists must utilize clinically relevant assessment skills and interventions that produce quick results and minimize respiratory complications. Aggressive pulmonary management can improve one’s respiratory status, ultimately leading to improved functional mobility and quality of life. Baseline tests and measures included chest excursion, incentive spirometry, breath support for phonation, 2- and 6-Minute wheelchair mobility tests, and assessment of cough and breathing pattern. These tests and measures were performed weekly. Resisted IMT was performed with a commercially available breathing device consisting of a mouthpiece, one-way valve at sealed end, noseclip, and various sized orifices through which to breathe. The patient trained twice daily for fifteen minutes in each session, five days per week. Resistance was increased according to manufacturer guidelines. Pulmonary management can be important in persons with SCI, regardless of level of injury. Resisted IMT was beneficial for this patient, with the greatest improvement noted in distance propelled in timed wheelchair mobility tests, volume inspired, and chest excursion. These improvements may be due to IMT, spontaneous recovery, a combination of IMT and natural recovery, and the confounding of additional rehab and pulmonary interventions. Further research is needed to determine the efficacy of resisted IMT in individuals with paraplegia, specifically with larger sample sizes and while controlling for confounding variables.
