The human brain evolved in three parts: the lizard brain (brain stem), mammalian brain (limbic system), and human brain (cortex). The brain stem controls vital functions like breathing and regulates arousal states. The limbic system is associated with emotions, motivation and memory formation. It includes the thalamus, hypothalamus and amygdala. The cortex is the outer layer and most recently evolved part responsible for higher-level thinking, language, and executive functioning. It is divided into four lobes - frontal, parietal, temporal, and occipital - each associated with different cognitive and sensory functions.
Here is anatomy and physiology of brain stem. Where we will discuss all three parts of brain stem. Starting from medulla, second is pons and third is mid brain. In this video I am presenting anatomy and physiology of medulla. Anatomy of medulla: Medulla Oblongata or more simply medulla is part of brain stem which forms base of the brain stem. Location of medulla oblongata is superior to spinal cord and inferior to Pons. It contains pyramid, olive and above pyramidal structure, there is decussation of pyramids which explains why each part of brain controls opposite part of body. Adding to that medulla also has several nuclei which controls activity of cardiovascular system and respiratory system. Medulla also has nuclei for controlling reflexes of vomiting, swallowing, hiccuping, coughing and sneezing. It has also nuclei for test, hearing and balance. Medulla also contains nuclei of cranial nerve number VIII, IX, X, XI and XII. Functions of medulla or what dose medulla do? So medulla controls blood pressure, diameter of wall of arteries, heart rate, basal respiration rate and also vomiting, swallowing, hiccuping, coughing and sneezing.
In this video, we explain you about anatomy and physiology of Pons. The reference material used to make video is: Principles of Anatomy and Physiology Gerard J. Tortora, Bryan H. Derrickson. Pons is part of brain stem, present superior to medulla, inferior to mid brain and anterior to cerebellum. Pons means a bridge. As the name denotes, it connects other areas of brain. Neurons extending from cerebral cortex to pons makes corticopontine tract. Pons is connected to cerebellum by middle cerebral peduncle. Pons has vestibular nuclei, which is part of equilibrium pathways from inner ear to brain. Pons has also respiratory nuclei. Along with rhythmicity area of medulla, pons controls basal respiratory rhythm. Pons also contains nuclei for cranial nerve number V, VI,VII, and VIII.
The brain is one of the largest and most complex organs in the human body. It is made up of more than 100 billion nerves that communicate in trillions of connections called synapses. ... The brain stem is between the spinal cord and the rest of the brain. Basic functions like breathing and sleep are controlled here.

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
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

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.

5. • Activity in the brain
stem is important for:
• *bodily activities
essential to survival,
such as changes in
heartbeat and
breathing
• *the focusing of
attention
*patterns of arousal
(that is sleeping versus
waking)Ps. If the brain stem is damaged, a person may lapse into a coma or even die
Location: the brain stem is an
extension of the spinal cord
(1st)The Lizard Brain/
Brain Stem/Hindbrain
6. • Medulla-controls
many vital autonomic
functions such as
heart rate, breathing
and blood pressure.
• Pons -helps
coordinate movement
on each side of the
body.
7. • The cerebellum is
involved in the
coordination of motor
movements as well as
basic facets of memory
and learning.
• * The reticular
formation is a neural
network located in the
medulla that helps
control functions such as
sleep and attention
Reticular formation
8. (2nd) Mammalian Brain/Midbrain/
Limbic System
• Located in the middle
of the brain
• Associated with these
behaviors
1. Fighting
2. Feeding
3. Fleeing
4. Reproductive
behavior
* The part of the brain
that regulates
9. The Thalamus
processes and relays
movement and
sensory information.
It is essentially a relay
station, taking in
sensory information
and then passing it on
to the cerebral cortex.
10. The hypothalamus
connects with many
other regions of the
brain and is
responsible for
controlling hunger,
thirst, emotions,
body temperature
regulation, and
circadian rhythms.
11. THE AMYGDALA
• An almond-shaped
structure, implicated
in the experience of
negative emotions
12. (3rd)Human Brain/Cortex
• The last part to evolve
• The outer layer of the
brain
• Responsible for
“executive
functioning”
• What makes us
human
• Thinking
• Divided up into
specific parts (Lobes)
16. The frontal lobe is located at the front of
the brain and is associated with reasoning,
motor skills, higher lever cognition, and
expressive language.
17. At the back of the frontal lobe lies the motor
cortex. This area of the brain receives
information to carry out body movements.
18. The parietal lobe is located in the middle
section of the brain and is associated with
processing tactile sensory information
such as pressure, touch, and pain
19. • A portion of the brain known as the
somatosensory cortex is located in this
lobe and is essential to the processing of
the body's senses.
20. The temporal lobe is located on the bottom
section of the brain. This lobe is also the
location of the primary auditory cortex,
which is important for interpreting sounds
and the language we hear
21. The hippocampus is also located in the temporal
lobe, which is why this portion of the brain is also
heavily associated with the formation of
memories
Looks like a sea-horse
22. The occipital lobe is located at the back
portion of the brain and is associated with
vision.
