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!

Tom Selleck Health: A Comprehensive Look at the Iconic Actor’s Wellness Journeygreendigital
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
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.

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
Acute scrotum is a general term referring to an emergency condition affecting the contents or the wall of the scrotum.
There are a number of conditions that present acutely, predominantly with pain and/or swelling
A careful and detailed history and examination, and in some cases, investigations allow differentiation between these diagnoses. A prompt diagnosis is essential as the patient may require urgent surgical intervention
Testicular torsion refers to twisting of the spermatic cord, causing ischaemia of the testicle.
Testicular torsion results from inadequate fixation of the testis to the tunica vaginalis producing ischemia from reduced arterial inflow and venous outflow obstruction.
The prevalence of testicular torsion in adult patients hospitalized with acute scrotal pain is approximately 25 to 50 percent

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.

75. Eyelid excursion during opening
movements:
In adults the upper eyelid is raised
some 10-15 mm from extreme
downward gaze to extreme upward
gaze.
76. Tone of levator muscle:
In upward gaze, tone increases in both
the superior rectus muscle and the
levator, resulting in elevation of the
visual axis and concomitant elevation
and retraction of the upper lid.
77. Lower lid retractors
NO true counterpart of the levator is
present, and therefore, the opening
movement depends upon several
factors:
1. Traction exerted by the attachment of
the inferior rectus to the inferior tarsus.
2. Inferior palpebral muscle (identical to
Muller’s muscle in the upper lid).
78. Dynamics of opening movement
Opening of the upper eyelid takes place
against gravity.
Opening movements of the homolateral
upper and lower eyelids begin in phase,
although the opening movement of the
lower lid is much slower than that of the
upper eyelid due to lack of any direct
muscular pull.
79. During opening movement the upper
lid moves vertically upwards, while
the lower lid moves laterally in a
horizontal direction.
80. Bilateral coordination and their basis:
Opening movements of the eyelids are bilateral,
symmetrical, and identical in direction and
amplitude, although they may be voluntarily
inhibited on either side.
So, the levator muscles of the two upper eyelids
behave as yoke muscles in that they act as a
team or pair, and like extraocular muscles, obey
Hering’s law of equal innervation.
81. This implies that the innervational
energy reaching the one levator muscle
is equal to that reaching the other.
When the levator on one side is weak, as
in unilateral myasthenia gravis or
unilateral congenital ptosis, the lid on
the unaffected side may be retracted in
an unconscious effort (based on Hering’s
law of equal innervation) to elevate the
ptotic lid.
82. Reciprocal innervation pattern
It exists between the levator muscle
and the orbicularis oculi muscle, i.e.
when levator receives maximum
innervation during opening the
orbicularis receives minimum
innervation and vice versa. Thus, these
muscles follow the Sherrington’s law of
reciprocal innervation.
84. Orbicularis oculi controls lid closure and is
supplied by the facial nerve.
It is divided into three main parts:
85. Part Position Function
Pretarsal fibers In front of the
tarsal plate
* Respond in spontaneous blinking
and tactile corneal reflex.
* Close lid and pull lacrimal puncta
medially.
Preseptal fibers In front of the
orbital septum
Respond to voluntary blinking and
sustained activity.
* Pull lacrimal fascia laterally and
create a relative vacuum in lacrimal
sac-improve tear drainage.
Orbital fibers Surrounds the
orbital rims
* Respond in forceful lid closure.
86. Blinking can be divided into
voluntary and involuntary
types.
The involuntary blinks are
further subdivided into
spontaneous and reflex
blinks.
87. Spontaneous blinking
It is a common form of blinking that occurs
without any obvious external stimulus or
voluntary willed efforts.
88. Spontaneous blinking does not occur or is very
infrequent during the first few months of life; yet
the delicate infant cornea does not suffer from
dryness.
Average rate: 15 times per minute (12-20).
The blink rate is increased in:
1. Extremely dry conditions.
2. Strong air currents.
3. Certain emotional stress situations (surprise, anger,
or fight).
A decreased blink rate occurs during times of visual
observations.
89. Duration: 0.3-0.4 second.
Present in the blind, hence no retinal
stimulation is required.
No discontinuity of visual sensation during
blinking.
The upper lid begins to close with no lower lid
movement.
It is followed by a zipper-like movement from
the lateral canthus towards the medial canthus.
This helps the displacement of the tear film to
the lacrimal puncta which are located on the
medial side of the lids.
90. Mechanism
The exact stimulus for spontaneous
blinking is unknown.
Spontaneous blinks occurring
without gaze shifts are triggered by
a timing mechanism probably
located in the brainstem.
91. During each blink, the upper eyelid
covers the center of the pupil for a
period of 0.10 sec.
Due to contraction of the preseptal
fibers, as the upper eyelid reaches the
limit of its downward excursion,
electrical activity in the orbicularis
ceases and concomitantly activity
reappears in the levator.
93. Different stimuli induce a different
neurological pathway.

94. Voluntary blinking and winking
is a willed coordinated closure and
opening movement of the eyelids in
both eyes.
The voluntary blink is under the control
of the individual (rate and degree of
closure and opening).
It is produced as a protective gesture.
95. Winking is unilateral voluntary lid closure.
Part of facial expression.
It is a learned activity.
Occasionally, a subject may learn to wink with
one eye but not with the other.
Minimum periods between winks are 0.3 sec.
Both are voluntary blinking and winking are
produced by simultaneous contraction of
palpebral and orbital portions of the
orbicularis.
96. BELL’S PHENOMENON
It is a highly coordinated reflex
between the facial and oculomotor
nuclei, whereby on closure of the
eyelids, the eyeball is rotated
upward and outward.
This is a protective mechanism
97. On closure of the eyelids, all the electrical
activities in the levator cease and concomitantly
the activity abruptly rises in the superior rectus
muscle and is inhibited in the inferior rectus
muscle.
Bell’s phenomenon is NOT present in 10% of
otherwise healthy persons, and therefore its
absence is not necessarily a sign of disease.
98. Applied aspects
Congenital anamolies:
Congenital ptosis
Coloboma: characterised by full thckness
triangular gap in tissues of lids.
Involves nasal side.more common in upper
lid.
Cryptophthalmos:lids fail to develop and skin
passes continuously over the eye balls.
99. Microblepharon: abnormally small eye
lids.associated with microphthalmos or
anophthalmos.
Ablepharon: ocasionally lids may be virtually
absent
101. External hodeolum:
• Acute suppurative inflammation of gland of
zeiss or moll.
Chalazion : tarsal or meibomian cyst.chronic
non infective granulomatous inflammation of
meibomian gland.
102. Internal hordeolum: suppurative inflamation
of meibomian gland asso with blockage of
duct.
Molluscum contagiosum: viral infection of lids
caused by a pox virus.
Waxy,umbilicated,multiple swellings scattred
over skin near lid margin
103. Anamolies in position of
lashes and margin
Trichiasis : inward misdirection of cilia with
normal position of lid margin.
The inward turning of lid margin and lashes is
called pseudo trichiasis.
Entropion :inturning of lid margin.
• Congenital
• Cicatrical
• Spastic
• Senile
• mechanical
104. Ectropion : out rolling or outward turning of
lid margin.
1. Senile
2. Cicatrical
3. Paralytic
4. Mechanical
5. spastic
105. Symblepharon :
Condition in which lids become adherent with
the eye ball as a result of adhesions between
palpebral and bulbar tissue.
Ankyloblepharon:
Refers to adhesions between margins of
upper and lower lids.
Congenital or acquired.
Complete or incomplete.
106. Blepharophimosis:
The extent of palpebral fissure is decreased.it
appears contracted at outer canthus.
Lagophthalmos:
condition characterised by inability to close
the eye lids voluntarily.
107. Ptosis :
Abnormal drooping of upper eye lid.
If more than 16 th of cornea is covered i.e.
>2mm
Congenital
1. Simple congenital
2. Asso with weakness of superior rectus
3. Part of blepharophimosis syndrome
4. Congenital synkinetic ptosis.
Because the sulci demarcate the junction between loose loose palpebral and dense cheek tissue.any edema ,adipose herniation is limited upto that sulci.
Each eye lid is divided by a horizontal furrow into orbital and tarsal part.
Lines of minimal tension:
Formed by 2 groups.
First is due to habitual expression
Second is due to relaxarion of palpebral skin itself.
Usually all incisions are taken parallel to these lines except in repair of ectropion where orthogonally incisins are made.
In caucasians with lids open,lateral canthus is about 2mm above the medial thus imparting inferomedial shape to fissure
In mongoloids obliquity is increasd with a dermal fold over medial canthal regions called epicanthal fold which can over lap the caruncle.
Striated part is palpebral part of orbiclaris palpebrum
Temporal and zygomatic branches of facial nerve.
Medial horn passes over the reflected tendon of superior oblique and fuses with medial canthal tendon
Lateral horn divides lacrimal gland into orbital and palpebral part and inserts into superior edge of lateral canthal tendon
Extremities of tarsal plates:The lateral ends of tarsi are attached to whitnalls ligament and medial ends by palpebral ligament to anterior lacrimal crest ,frontal process of maxilla
Anterior part: it fans out laterally at the ant lacrimal crest
Gives origin to superficial portion of orbicularis muscle
Angular veins,artery pass over medial part of ant part. Continues laterally at medial canthus splits into upper and lower bandsattached to upper and lower tarsal plates resembling Y alphabet
Posterior part: passes behind the lacrimal sac from ant lacrimal crest to post lacrimal crest
Arranged in a single row vertically parallel to each other.20-30 in a lid.
Structure: central duct,runs straight perpendicular to lid margin,10-15 acini open from sides into central duct.
Opening of meibomian glands are arranged in a single roebetween grey line and post border of lid.
Structure : single cul-de-sac.2-3 lobules.cuboidal cells line acini.
Veins are larger, numerous than arteries.2 sets of venous plexus seen
