Lupus is a chronic autoimmune disease that can damage any parts of the body including the skin, joints, organs and blood cells. It primarily affects young women and occurs most between the ages of 15 to 40. Blacks and Hispanics have a higher risk than whites. While the cause is unknown, genetics play a role. Symptoms include painful or swollen joints, rashes, fatigue, and sensitivity to sunlight. Diagnosis involves medical history, exams and lab tests. Treatments can help control symptoms but there is no cure currently. Managing the disease is important to improve quality of life.

Introduction Autoimmune Disease by Dr. Kelly CobbNouriche Medspa
The immune system represents an interface between a constant ever-changing external environment and an internal system that is striving to maintain homeostasis and defend its boundaries from harmful foreign invaders.
Lupus is a chronic autoimmune disease that occurs when a person's immune system attacks their own tissues and organs. Learn about the symptoms of lupus, how it is diagnosed and new treatment options to live well with lupus.

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.

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!
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
Generalised disease of the prostate due to hormonal derangement which leads to non malignant enlargement of the gland (increase in the number of epithelial cells and stromal tissue)to cause compression of the urethra leading to symptoms (LUTS
2. Lupus: What is it?
• Lupus is a chronic, autoimmune disease
that can cause damage to any part of the
body.
-Skin, joints, and/or organs inside the
body, and blood cells.
Since this disease is chronic, those who
have Lupus will experience the symptoms
of it for many years even with the use of
medication.
*www.lupus.org
3. Who Does Lupus Effect and How
Often?
• Primarily a disease of young women.
• Occurs from infancy to old age, with peak occurrences
between the ages of 15 and 40.
• Females are affected far more than males.
• Blacks (and possibly Hispanics, Asians, and Native
Americans) are affected more than whites.
• Although there is a strong genetic connection, the
disease is relatively uncommon and most cases of Lupus
are very sporadic.
• There are currently 1.5 million people in the U.S who
have some form of Lupus.
*www.cdc.gov, www.alr.org
4. What does it do to the Body?
• Lupus is a disorder of the immune system known as an autoimmune
disease.
• The immune system, which is the part of the body that fights off
viruses, bacteria, and germs, turns against parts of the body that it
is designed to protect.
• A healthy immune system produces proteins called antibodies and
specific cells called lymphocytes that are there to help fight against
infection.
• The most common type of autoantibody that develops in people with
Lupus is called an antinuclear antibody (ANA) because it reacts with
parts of the cell’s nucleus (command center).
Cont...

5. What does it do to the Body cont...
• In Lupus, the immune system produces autoantibodies
against the body’s healthy cells and tissues which then
contribute to the inflammation of various parts of the
body and can cause damage to organs and tissues.
• Lupus can affect many parts of the body, including your:
-Joints
-Skin
-Kidneys
-Heart
-Lungs
-Blood vessels
-Brain.
6. Symptoms of Lupus
• Some of the most common symptoms
of Lupus are:
– Painful or swollen joints and muscle pain
– Anemia
– rashes on the face (often referred to as a butterfly rash)
– Dizziness, Depression, and Confusion
– Unusual loss of hair
– Pale or purple fingers or toes from cold or stress (Raynaud's
phenomenon)
– Sensitivity to the sun
– Mouth ulcers
– Swollen glands
– Extreme fatigue.
How serious each case of symptoms are depends on the person and often
varies.
7. Lupus Diagnosis
• Getting diagnosed with Lupus can be a lengthy process.
It can take anywhere between months to even a few
years before a person gets diagnosed with the disease.
• Doctors will review your entire medical history, your
family's medical history, complete physical examinations,
and perform numerous lab tests such as a complete
blood count, erythrocyte sedimentation rate, urinalysis,
blood chemistries, antinuclear antibody tests, a skin
biopsy, and a kidney biopsy.
*www.niams.nih.gov
8. Incidence of Lupus
• It has been found that national incidence
data for Lupus are difficult to obtain
because onset of the disease is difficult to
determine.
• Existing estimates range widely, from 1.8
to 7.6 cases per 100,000 persons per year
in parts of the continental United States.
*www.niams.nih.gov
9. Morbidity of Lupus
• Treatment of lupus has improved, and people with the disease are
living longer. But, it is still a chronic disease that can limit activities.
• Quality of life can suffer because of symptoms like fatigue and joint
pain. Furthermore, some people do not respond to some
treatments.
• Also, you may not be able to predict when lupus will flare. Such
problems can lead to depression, anger, loss of hope or loss of the
will to keep fighting.
• Presently there is no cure for Lupus but the disease can be
effectively treated with drugs allowing most people to still be able to
live healthy and active lives.
*http://www.rheumatology.org/ cont'
10. Morbidity of Lupus cont...
• Lupus is currently treated with:
-Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs)
such as Aleve, Advil or Motrin
-Antimalarial drugs
-Corticosteroids and
-Immune suppressants
• According to the CDC, there is no national
health cost estimated at this time for those living
with Lupus.
*http://www.mayoclinic.org
11. Lupus Mortality
• From 1979 to 1998, the annual number of deaths with lupus as the
underlying cause increased from 879 to 1,406.
• Death rates increased with age, among women, and among blacks.
Death rates were highest and increased the most over time among
black women aged 45-64 years.
• Causes of death are mainly active disease, organ failure (such as
the kidneys) , infection, or cardiovascular disease from accelerated
atherosclerosis.
• With current research, it is showing that at this same time, survival
has been improving, suggesting that more or milder cases are being
recognized.
