Eating disorders ( Anorexia nervosa and Bulimia nervosa)kalyan kumar
Eating disorders are a range of psychological conditions that cause unhealthy eating habits to develop. They might start with an obsession with food, body weight, or body shape.
In severe cases, eating disorders can cause serious health consequences and may even result in death if left untreated.
Biliary atresia is a condition in which the normal hepatic biliary system is disrupted. Progressive damage of extrahepatic and intrahepatic bile ducts occurs secondary to inflammation, leading to fibrosis, biliary cirrhosis, and eventual liver failure.
enuresis involves the inability to awaken from sleep in response to a voiding stimulus (i.e., a full bladder), coupled with excessive nighttime urine production or decreased functional capacity of the bladder

AVOIDING DIABETES prompted me to share a VERY personal story. My mother was an insulin diabetic for most of her life starting back in the 1950's until her passing away over two decades ago. Since she was taking insulin several times daily, I'm sure that diabetes was on her mind every waking hour. Point being, I realized if there was any "good news" about my mother's diabetes, it was that I learned that diabetes should be feared and avoided at all costs.

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

2 Case Reports of Gastric Ultrasound
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.

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!

5. Anorexia Anorexia is the decreased sensation of appetite. While the term in non-scientific publications is often used interchangeably with anorexia nervosa, many possible causes exist for a decreased appetite, some of which may be harmless, while others indicate a serious clinical condition, or pose a significant risk
6. Obesity Obesity is a medical condition in which excess body fat has accumulated to the extent that it may have an adverse effect on health, leading to reduced life expectancy and/or increased health problems.
7. Statistics of AnorexiaThe highest risk age group is between 14 to 18 years, although there are studies that extend the age from 12 to 25 years.It is estimated that anorexia nervosa affects between 0.5 to 3% of world population of adolescents, making it the third most common chronic disease among this age group. Within groups of adolescents who are dieting, it is estimated that only about 20% have actually overweight, the rest are interested in losing weight without even needing it.About 90% of adolescents who diet are women. An estimated 1 in 100 children / adolescents suffer from anorexia, while about 3% develop bulimia. If you perform a differential evaluation of cases of anorexia nervosa in men and women, the percentage would be 5% and 95% respectively. Although in recent years, the gender gap will shorten.Of all patients who receive treatment to combat anorexia, after 5 years, approximately 12% become chronic, increasing to 15% at 10 years.The death rate due to anorexia, is between 3 to 5%. The overvaluation of thinness and culture of perfection that characterizes the world today has an impact on the psyche of adolescents and children. Each day, increase the cases of girls under 12 with eating disorders, which must be taken in time to avoid future complications that can even lead to death.

9. Statistics of ObesityAs confirmed by the statistics and facts, obesity in the world is growing:• According to the World Health Organization, in 2005 about 1600 million adults worldwide were overweight, of which 400 million were obese.• In 2005 more than 20 million children under 5 years were overweight.• It is estimated that by 2015 there will be 2.3 billion overweight adults, of whom 700 million are obese.Obesity in Spain• In 2005, Spain ranked third among European countries with the highest percentage of childhood obesity.• According to the Ministry of Health and Spanish consumption, from 2005 until now the percentage of obese children has increased dramatically and is now Spain, the European country with the child obesity rate higher

12. Quotes:- PetaWilson: "I was anorexic-bulimic when I was 16-17. It was a top secret that time, but these things always are”- Kate Beckinsale: On her teenage anorexia: "People keep asking me about it but I don't want to be famous for being a former anorexic.“- People don´t see me. No one sees me. It´s like being fat. No one takes you seriously. You just don´t exist-you´re so big, you´re not even there." - "An imperfect body reflects an imperfect person..."
13.
14. - To say that obesity is caused by merely consuming too many calories is like saying that the only cause of the American Revolution was the Boston Tea Party- More than ever, we as parents and a nation must do something about the growth of obesity in our children. We must do more than just talk, we must be concerned enough to act. ~ - In one campament, in the final party, an anorexic girl fainted. It was very sad. Her friends were very concerned. - I don't mind that I'm fat. You still get the same money.

18. Consequences of ObesityPreviously considered the overweight person as someone who was in good health, but now we know that obesity has multiple negative health consequences. It is now accepted that obesity is a causal factor of other diseases such as cardiovascular disease, dermatological, gastrointestinal, diabetes, musculoskeletal, etc.
