What Is Blood Bank?
A blood bank is a center where blood gathered as a result of blood donation is stored and preserved for later use in blood transfusion
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.
Report Back from SGO 2024: What’s the Latest in Cervical Cancer?bkling
Are you curious about what’s new in cervical cancer research or unsure what the findings mean? Join Dr. Emily Ko, a gynecologic oncologist at Penn Medicine, to learn about the latest updates from the Society of Gynecologic Oncology (SGO) 2024 Annual Meeting on Women’s Cancer. Dr. Ko will discuss what the research presented at the conference means for you and answer your questions about the new developments.
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.

Explain the chemical basis and signal transduction of taste perception for each type of primary taste sensation.
Recognize different abnormalities of taste perception and their causes.
Key Topics:
Significance of Taste Sensation:
Differentiation between pleasant and harmful food
Influence on behavior
Selection of food based on metabolic needs
Receptors of Taste:
Taste buds on the tongue
Influence of sense of smell, texture of food, and pain stimulation (e.g., by pepper)
Primary and Secondary Taste Sensations:
Primary taste sensations: Sweet, Sour, Salty, Bitter, Umami
Chemical basis and signal transduction mechanisms for each taste
Taste Threshold and Index:
Taste threshold values for Sweet (sucrose), Salty (NaCl), Sour (HCl), and Bitter (Quinine)

2. BLOOD Facts
Blood flows everywhere
through the human body.
We cannot live without it.
The heart pumps blood to all
our body cells, supplying them
with oxygen and food.
Blood also carries proteins and
cell fragments called platelets
that let blood clot where there
has been an injury.
3. Did You Know?
450ml of blood can save as many as three lives.
Every two seconds, someone in India needs blood.
One out of every three of us will need blood in our
life time.
Even with all of today’s technology, there is no
substitute for blood.
Someone has to give blood
in order for someone to receive blood.
4. Fact Sheet -1
Hospitals predict that the need for blood will
increase 5% each year.
Approximately only 4% of the eligible
population in India donates blood.
75% of donors donate only ONCE per year.
If they donated just two times per year there would
never be any shortages.
5. Fact sheet -2
A person has 5 - 6 litres of blood in their
body.
A person can donate blood every 90 days
(3 months).
Body recovers the Blood very quickly:
Blood plasma volume– within 24 - 48 hours
Red Blood Cells – in about 3 weeks
Platelets & White Blood Cells – within minutes
6. 1 of out 10 hospital patients
needs a blood transfusion
4.5 million Indians lives are
saved by blood transfusions
each year
Blood is always needed for,
accident victims
cancer patients
blood disorder patients
surgery patients
Pre-mature, pre term
babies
and many others…….
7. Primary Concern -
Safety of Blood Donor & Blood Recipient
(patient) because “Safe Blood” gives
life, “Unsafe blood” gives infections
To ensure “Blood Safety”,
Strict “Donor Screening” at the Camp
“Testing” of collected blood to WHO specified
standards
Strict “cross-matching” of blood samples to
ensure safe transfusion to patient
8. information
• It is quick and safe.
• It doesn’t hurt.
• It saves 3 to 4 lives.
• Blood is taken ONLY from Voluntary Donors
• Using sterile, disposable blood bags &
instruments
• Donated Blood is tested and separated into
components benefiting 3-4 patients
• It is safe to donate every 3 months
10. Safe Donor selection involves –
1. Identification of low risk populations
2. Donor education and recruitment
3. Encouraging self deferral based on
“Deferral Criteria”
4. Medical Examination before donation
Voluntary Non-remunerated Repeat
Donor (VNRD) is safest
Donor Screening

18. Post Donation Advice
Drink lots of fluids for next 24 hours
Avoid smoking for one hour & alcohol till after a meal
Don’t use elevator to go up immediately after donation as it will
make blood rush to your feet & make you dizzy!
Avoid highly strenuous exercises & games for a day
If you feel dizzy, lie down & put your feet up. You will be alright
in 10-20 mins.
Remove band-aid after 4 hours. If it bleeds, apply pressure &
reapply band-aid. If bruised and painful, apply cold-pack 4 to 5
times for 5 mins each. The bruise is due to blood seeping into
the surrounding tissue. It will take a few days to get reabsorbed.
If you have any questions, meet camp doctor or contact us at
Life Seva
