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
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.

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

Recomendações da OMS sobre cuidados maternos e neonatais para uma experiência pós-natal positiva.
Em consonância com os ODS – Objetivos do Desenvolvimento Sustentável e a Estratégia Global para a Saúde das Mulheres, Crianças e Adolescentes, e aplicando uma abordagem baseada nos direitos humanos, os esforços de cuidados pós-natais devem expandir-se para além da cobertura e da simples sobrevivência, de modo a incluir cuidados de qualidade.
Estas diretrizes visam melhorar a qualidade dos cuidados pós-natais essenciais e de rotina prestados às mulheres e aos recém-nascidos, com o objetivo final de melhorar a saúde e o bem-estar materno e neonatal.
Uma “experiência pós-natal positiva” é um resultado importante para todas as mulheres que dão à luz e para os seus recém-nascidos, estabelecendo as bases para a melhoria da saúde e do bem-estar a curto e longo prazo. Uma experiência pós-natal positiva é definida como aquela em que as mulheres, pessoas que gestam, os recém-nascidos, os casais, os pais, os cuidadores e as famílias recebem informação consistente, garantia e apoio de profissionais de saúde motivados; e onde um sistema de saúde flexível e com recursos reconheça as necessidades das mulheres e dos bebês e respeite o seu contexto cultural.
Estas diretrizes consolidadas apresentam algumas recomendações novas e já bem fundamentadas sobre cuidados pós-natais de rotina para mulheres e neonatos que recebem cuidados no pós-parto em unidades de saúde ou na comunidade, independentemente dos recursos disponíveis.
É fornecido um conjunto abrangente de recomendações para cuidados durante o período puerperal, com ênfase nos cuidados essenciais que todas as mulheres e recém-nascidos devem receber, e com a devida atenção à qualidade dos cuidados; isto é, a entrega e a experiência do cuidado recebido. Estas diretrizes atualizam e ampliam as recomendações da OMS de 2014 sobre cuidados pós-natais da mãe e do recém-nascido e complementam as atuais diretrizes da OMS sobre a gestão de complicações pós-natais.
O estabelecimento da amamentação e o manejo das principais intercorrências é contemplada.
Recomendamos muito.
Vamos discutir essas recomendações no nosso curso de pós-graduação em Aleitamento no Instituto Ciclos.

2. Cognition
Cognition is a term that refers to the mental process of
thinking, knowing, learning and understanding.
Throughout this module we will learn about cognition and
how it relates to safely awareness and problem-solving at
the beach.
3. • Before we dive into safety
awareness, let's talk about
basic beach safety
• There will always be a
Lifeguard at the beach and
a majority of the AccesSurf
Key Leaders are first aid
certified.
• Remember the Safety Hand
Signals
Beach safety
4. Beach and Water Safety
Top things to remember
• Swim and surf in the designated areas
• Always go out with a buddy – there will be a lot of us out there so look
around for those AccesSurf rash guards
• Avoid areas of fast-moving water or rip currents
• Never turn your back to the ocean
• Stay within your fitness and swimming capabilities. If you don't feel
comfortable, let one of the key leaders know. There are plenty of other
opportunities for you to showcase your skills/talents.
5. Safety Awareness
Safety awareness mean that a person is aware of their abilities and
understands their strengths and weaknesses within a given environment
or activity.
People with poor safely-awareness have difficulties identify their strengths
and weaknesses.
6. Let’s Meet Sarah
Sarah is a 17-year-old girl who has Autism Spectrum
Disorder. She has poor safety awareness and poor
judgment. Sarah’s dream is to surf; however, she has
never been in the ocean. Sarah believes that she
doesn't need a PFD and that she can go out alone.
How could you handle this situation? How can we
make her experience SAFE and FUN?
Click to the next slide to find out
7. How to Help Athletes Like Sarah
• Make safety 1st:
• Make sure she is wearing her PFD and leash correctly
• Work as a team:
• You can say ”Sarah I need your help catching some waves, let’s be Surfing
Buddies today" or “We are going to catch so many waves together”
• It’s a good idea to have a extra surf instructor with you
• Set realistic expectations:
• Sarah might not be able to paddle out past the break, but she could try and
paddle with a surf instructor ”Surf Buddy" on her board.
8. Attention
• Attention is another factor that can affect a person safety awareness at the
beach.
• Attention is when a person can keep their mind focused on something.
• Focus challenges are real. It doesn't mean that an athlete isn't working hard or
isn't intelligent or isn't interested in what you are saying.
• We all have difficulties paying attention at times, but at the beach and in the
water it is essential to be hyper-aware and pay attention.
9. How Attention Affects a Day at the Beach
Let's say you have an athlete that becomes confused and frustrated while
attempting to hold his surfboard and put on his leash at the same time.
Or
You have a child who starts to buckle her PFD and suddenly stops and
starts strapping on her leash, and forgets to complete and return to
buckling her PFD before going out.
These are all safety concerns due to a lack of safety awareness and
attention.
How can you help?
10. You Can Help Your Athlete With Attention
Difficulties By:
• Breaking down the task into smaller steps
• Provide verbal and visual demonstration
• Don’t just tell them how to paddle, show then how to
• Remind them to take one step at a time. Coach them through the task
• "1st we are going to buckle the PFD straps; then we will put on our leash."
11. You Can Help Your Athlete With Attention
Difficulties By:
Limiting distraction is a great way to help:
• The beach can be distracting but try and find a quiet area
• Someone with attention issues might have difficulty holding a train of thought
when they're interrupted, so give them time, let them finish their thought
• If you notice that your athlete is not paying attention out on the water, the 1st
priority isn't catching a wave, it is to "re-center” them. Get close to your
athlete, make eye contact, and repeat your plan ”First we paddle, then we will
catch ONE wave together”
12. Processing Speed
• Processing speed is highly essential for safety awareness.
• Processing speed is the pace at which you take in information, make sense of it,
and begin to respond. This information can be visual, such as letters and
numbers. It can also be auditory, such as spoken language.
• Having slow processing speed has nothing to do with how smart a person is —it
deals with how fast a person can take in and use information.
13. Problem-Solving
• Sometimes people with problem-solving difficulties can't:
• Recognize a problem exists
• Determine possible solutions
• Or how to solve it.
14. Processing Speed and Problem-Solving
• Processing Speed and Problem-Solving can go hand in hand
• The longer it takes someone to process information: such as a big wave coming
at them,
the longer it takes them to problem solve and respond to situations : such as
paddle faster or do a Turtle Roll
15. How to Help
• Less is more:
• Saying too many words at once can create challenges for someone with slow
processing speed
• Use fewer words.
• You can verbally prepare them:
• ”Here comes a big wave”
• Give simple one-step directions:
• “Paddle”
16. Memory
• Memory refers to how we store and retrieve information.
• A person with memory challenges might have trouble remembering faces,
names, who they are, where they are, why they are there or what time it is.
• You will be informed that your athlete has memory issues before you meet
them. If your athlete seems confused about their situation just kindly reminded
them, ”Mr. S you are at White Plains beach with AccesSurf."
• If you were not informed beforehand that your athlete has memory issues and
while out on the water or on the beach they display memory problems, let a Key
Leader know. This could be signs of a serious medical episode
17. Errorless Learning
Errorless learning is a technique that helps people reduce errors, which allows
them to complete the tasks accurately.
How to do Errorless learning:
• Lead by example: model the behavior you wish to see
• Provided step by step verbal and visual cues on how to complete a task
• Have your athlete recall information or complete the task (correctly) many times
• Break down the tasks into smaller steps
18. Some Conditions That Might Effect Cognition
• Stroke
• Autism Spectrum Disorder
• Traumatic or Acquired brain injury
• Dementia
• Intellectual developmental disorder
• Williams syndrome
• Down syndrome
• Fragile X syndrome
