Many kalpas have been described in Rasashastra for the conservation of immunity, physical and pshycological state of the body. In the field Rasayana, Gandhaka holds top after Parada. It possess ‘Katu’ rasa, ‘Ushna’ virya and Pachaka karma. Sudha Gandhaka when consume for many days with suitable adjuvant will provide good eye sight and improves jataragni. It is a good Rasyana also. Acharya Charaka has described Rasayana as a means to promote vigor and health which is mainly virilific and promotive of vitality. In the eighth chapter of Rasatarangini mentions 10 Gandhaka Kalpas. By judicious use of these kalpas, the person attains divyadrishti (sharp eye sight), suvarna kaya (golden radiance in the body), virya (high virility) and shaurya (physical strength) even in aged persons, vajra kaya (sturdy body), cures vali and palita roga (hair fall and hair greying), and also cures many of the chronic Kaphaja, Vataja and Pittaja rogas.

Akshi Kriyakalpa Occular Theraputics in Ayurvedaijtsrd
Wonderful development made in ophthalmic medicine in recent years has begun a new era in the history of ophthalmology. Modern ophthalmologists and scientists have been able to convince the new generation about the significance of eye care and the right procedures to follow to ensure healthy vision. At the same time, there are various challenging problems, arising before modern ophthalmologists compelling them to tread the virgin fields of medical knowledge hidden in ancient medical manuscripts. Many are aware of various eye ailments and remedies. But the impact of Ayurvedic treatments for these ailments is yet to be recognized by both medical fraternity and the public in general. One such Ayurvedic ocular therapeutic is Kriyakalpa. “Kriyakalpa,” has a very superior position as it is tissue targeted, fast acting, simple but innovative method of drug administration to various parts of eyes including the posterior segment, the optic center, visual pathway also .Different types of Kriyakalpa, their indications and probable mode of action have been discussed in present review article.

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!

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

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

Formation and Function of Rakta: Rakta is nourished by the Rasa Sara bhaga
processed by Pachakapitta and transforms as Rakta in the presence of
Amashayastha Ranjakapitta get RED coloured to make the Jeevana (oxygen-
carrying function) influenced by Sadhakapitta (Hridaya)
Hemoglobin 1:
The red, oxygen-carrying pigment in the red blood cells is hemoglobin, a
protein with a molecular weight of 64,450.
Hemoglobin is a globular molecule made up of 4 subunits
Many of the abnormal hemoglobins are harmless. However, some have
abnormal O2 equilibriums. Others cause anemia.
Eg: hemoglobin S polymerizes at low O2 tensions, and this causes
the red cells to become sickle-shaped, hemolyze, and form aggregates
that block blood vessels. The result is the severe hemolytic anemia
known as sickle cell anemia.
Iron is essential for hemoglobin synthesis; if blood is lost from the body and
the iron deficiency is not corrected, iron deficiency anemia results.

In adults, about 85% of the erythropoietin comes from the kidneys and
15% from the liver. In adults,
Erythropoietin is produced by interstitial cells in the peritubular capillary
bed of the kidneys and by perivenous hepatocytes in the liver.
It is also produced in the brain, where it exerts a protective effect against
excitotoxic damage triggered by hypoxia; and in the uterus and oviducts,
where it is induced by estrogen and appears to mediate estrogen-dependent
angiogenesis.
Thus, the recombinant erythropoietin is of value in the treatment of the
anemia associated with renal failure;
Not only that the organs to value in this concern is – Stomach, Liver,
Kidney, uterus, Oviducts and Brain.

• Deficiencies as discussed –
may Loha deficiency or
Poorva dhatu (Rasa)
deficiency
– In case of Loha deficiency,
supplementation will help
– Rasa kshaya requires attention
(Hridrava, Asahishnuta) – to
understand the route cause and
treat accordingly
– If Rakta Kshaya – (Injury, etc)
require transfusion
– Dosha kshaya / vruddhi are

Aetiological-basis Deficiency-basis How to understand? 21
• Santarpana i.e. fatty ingestion cause inactive bone
marrow that is infiltrated with fat is called yellow
marrow, which results in to Anaemia.
• Overgrowth of bacteria (Mrit-bhakshana /Krimi) within
the intestinal lumen can cause macrocytic anaemia. The
cause of the anaemia is mal-absorption (Srotas Block)
of cyanocobalamin. Steatorrhea (Passage of fat in large
amounts in the feces) is due to excessive hydrolysis of
conjugated bile salts by the bacteria.
• Iron (Loha) is essential for hemoglobin synthesis; if
blood is lost from the body and the iron deficiency is
not corrected, iron deficiency anemia results.
• Excess production of bilirubin (Malaroopa Pitta) from
Liver leads to haemolytic anaemia.

• Acid-secreting cells of the stomach are damaged (Agni
kshaya) in pernicious anaemia.
• Parietal cells in the gastric mucosa (Amashaya samutha)
secrete intrinsic factor, a 49-kDa glycoprotein that binds to
cyanocobalamin (vitamin B12). Deficiency of it results
Anaemia and deterioration of certain sensory pathways in
the CNS (Hridaya).
• Rh incompatibility cause sensitization during pregnancy
haemolysis in the fetus develops anaemia.
• Cobalt is part of the vitamin B12 molecule, and vitamin B12
deficiency leads to megaloblastic anaemia.
• Copper deficiency causes anaemia and changes in
ossification.

• As we know today – the Blood and its development from foetus till to
the disease manifestation – Ayurveda refer the Blood and its
development, even diseases born due to its deficiency or increase
• In this concern - Whether the Rakta vruddhi – is said as -
Polycythemia Vera
• Ayurveda much times speak about - Folic Acid Deficiency
Anaemia /Iron Deficiency (Normolytic) Anemia and its
management
• Why Ayurveda doesn’t speak the Pandu as Anuvamshika?
• The shape based diseases/ conditions are not brought forward or
are they with other nomenclature
• Some conditions mimic Hemolytic Anemia – no recording of them
• Probably the rest of the types discussed at present on contemporary
platform are new observational developments and /or we miss that
part of curriculum in Ayurveda

• Even though many programs are offered by the
Govt., why the Health Care systems are not up to
the mark is valuable question
• Pandu – is studied in Ayurveda and offer a
management through natural adaptations and
dietetics –
• Pandu susceptible Indian public are deviating them
selves with life style and Junk food
• At this juncture awareness programs even though
reach the people – will not be followed by them - as
the demand is a quick relief with out changing their
habits and attitudes
• May be one day – the ultimate treatment for the
Anaemia becomes “Blood Transfusion”, where
Blood is manufactured in the “Farm House”
