It is important to take medication as directed and in combination with regular STI and HIV testing for optimal results. HIV post-exposure prophylaxis (PEP) can be used to prevent the spread of the virus after exposure, and pre-exposure prevention (PrEP) is recommended for those at high risk of acquiring HIV. HIV is currently a worldwide health problem that has impacted every business, regardless of The factors of gender, age, location, way of life, and nationality result in tens of thousands of fatalities and sufferings. The availability of preventative and curative measures has altered the world's situations. in recent years, therapeutic procedures at various degrees. Our immune system protects us by identifying invasive pathogens (bacteria, fungi, viruses, and parasites) and promptly reacting to them to prevent illness.

Purpose: Hispanic/Latino adolescents and young adults are disproportionately impacted by the
HIV/AIDS epidemic; yet little is known about the best strategies to increase HIV testing in this
group. Network-based approaches are feasible and acceptable means for screening at-risk adults
for HIV infection, but it is unknown whether these approaches are appropriate for at-risk young
Hispanics/Latinos. Thus, we compared an alternative venue-based testing (AVT) strategy with a
social and sexual network-based interviewing and HIV testing (SSNIT) strategy.
Methods: All participants were Hispanics/Latinos aged 13e24 years with self-reported HIV risk;
they were recruited from 11 cities in the United States and Puerto Rico and completed an audio
computer-assisted self-interview and underwent HIV screening.
Results: A total of 1,596 participants (94.5% of those approached) were enrolled: 784 (49.1%)
through AVT and 812 (50.9%) through SSNIT. HIV infection was identified in three SSNIT (.37%) and
four AVT (.51%) participants (p ¼ .7213).
Conclusions: Despite high levels of HIV risk, a low prevalence of HIV infectionwas identified with no
differences by recruitment strategy. We found overwhelming support for the acceptability and feasibility
of AVT and SSNIT for engaging and screening at-risk young Hispanics/Latinos. Further research is
needed to better understand howto strategically implement such strategies to improve identification of
undiagnosed HIV infection.

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

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

Lung Cancer: Artificial Intelligence, Synergetics, Complex System Analysis, S...Oleg Kshivets
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.

1. Feed the Minds’
Approach to HIV/AIDS
Feed the Minds recognises the importance of addressing the challenges of HIV/AIDS
in its work with partners overseas.
We support a holistic, inclusive and compassionate approach to HIV/AIDS which
is founded on accurate and current information and which recognises the need for
practical and realistic solutions.
We recognise the value of different approaches to HIV/AIDS in different communities,
with different age groups, lifestyles and livelihoods. We favour approaches which
have been developed in response to the local context and which
tackle discrimination, stigma and isolation of PLWHAs
take a whole community approach, rather than focusing only on prevention or
those who are HIV positive
are based on ensuring dissemination of accurate, current information
embrace the need for support for those affected directly and indirectly
actively engage PLWHAs in all aspects of the project design, implementation
and evaluation
Feed the Minds finds the ABC framework to working with HIV/AIDS (Abstinence, Be
Faithful, Condom use) somewhat limiting and does not support the highly
judgemental ways in which it is sometimes used, where A and B are portrayed as
more morally sound and responsible than C. There can be a tendency for the ABC
framework to limit the discussion to sexual activity and prevention of transmission,
ignoring other important aspects of the HIV/AIDS debate.
FTM feels that the SAVE framework is more in line with our values and mission.
S – Safe Practices
Safe practices mean that individuals, families, communities and organisations
are encouraged to adopt practices which reduce the chances of infection and
appropriate in their particular situation. These will be different for different people.
For example
for a pregnant woman who is HIV positive it will mean making sure she
reduces the risk of mother-to-child transmission
for a drug-user it might mean not sharing needles, as a first step
for a hospital surgeon operating on a wide range of patients it might mean
putting those with contagious diseases at the end of the operation list and
taking extra precautions to avoid cross contamination or infection of the
medical staff
for children at school it might mean promoting abstinence and delaying the
onset of sexual activity, and where appropriate, condom use
A – Accessing appropriate interventions (drug and non-drug)
Accessing appropriate interventions requires that organisations are fully
informed with up-to-date information on the ways in which those affected with
HIV/AIDS can increase their quality of life and actively encourage people to make
use of these services. This will include access to Anti-retroviral drugs (ARVs), clinics
1
2. to support drug users to address their addiction, access to improved nutrition and
rapid referral to health services for HIV positive people who are also infected with TB.
It will also mean actively encouraging families not to reject family members who are
HIV positive but to provide ongoing care and support.
V – Verification
Verification encourages all at risk, however small, to access the testing
facilities available. It also encourages organisations not to attach stigma to the
process of testing, but to see it as a responsible action.
E – Education
Education recognises the importance of accurate information on a whole
range of issues relating to HIV/AIDS and also opportunities to discuss and engage
with these as part of the process of individuals, families and communities making
informed decisions.
Conclusion
FTM will only support HIV/AIDS projects which are seen as practical and realistic and
which demonstrate a holistic, inclusive and compassionate approach based on
current and accurate information.
Preference will be given to those projects in line with the SAVE framework.
