Oxygen toxicity is an inherent challenge to aerobic life
Oxygen is essential for life.
Excess oxygen can have harmful effects.
When oxygen is metabolised in the body , it produces substances called FREE RADICALS which damage our cells.
treating anemia is a big challenge.oral iron therapy do not adequately treat IDA. IV ferric carboxy maltose (FCM)effectively treats IDA by circumventing the problem compliance of oral iron therapy.

• Bio Tech's D3Natal contains 5000IU of Vitamin
D3 (cholecalciferol)
• The current RDA is grossly inadequate at
450mcg/day (UPMC study; Lisa Bodner, PhD,
M.P.H, M.D.)
• The ONLY prenatal with adequate and newly
recommended IU levels between 4000-6000IU
• Vitamin D3 is water-soluble and dissolves
instantly
Vitamin D3 regulates calcium absorption
from the intestines, maintains normal blood
levels of calcium and phosphorus, an
promotes bone formation
• More benefits of Vitamin D3 are coming to
light and affects nearly every disease state
from diabetes to cancer
• The main source of Vitamin D3 is sunlight
People with dark skin, limited exposure to
sunlight, and those who wear sunscreen
need to supplement Vitamin D in their
diets
• Adequate blood levels for Vitamin D
range between 50-125 nanomoles per
liter (nmpol/L)
• -60% of the population is "D deficient"
(Zellman,WebMD)
• Vitamin D3 vs.Vitamin D2 (Key Studies)
° "Vitamin D2 is Much Less Effective than Vitamin D3" (Arman, Hollis, Heaney 2004)
Conclusion: Vitamin D2 potency is less than 1/3 the potency of Vitamin D3 with a shorter duration of action
° "Vitamin D3 Is More Potent than Vitamin D2 in Humans" (Heaney, Recker, Grote, Horst, Armas 201 I)
Conclusion: Vitm in D3 is ~87% more potent in raising and maintaining serum 25(OH)D concentrations and produces 2-3 fold greater storage of Vitamin D3 over D2
Low levels of Vitamin D during pregnancy are associated with poor fetal/infant skeletal formation and growth as well as poor tooth mineralization
• Over 50 Universities, Hospitals and Clinics utilize Bio-Tech Vitamin D3 for their research
• Vitamin D3 is not a Rx. Vitamin D2 is available via Rx only
• Lactation and Vitamin D3
• A reassessment of current Vitamin D intake for mothers is critical as current recommendations result in a high degree of Vitamin D deficiency, especially in the African American population.
• Current recommendations of 200-400 ILJ/d for pregnant and lactating women are grossly inadequate, especially in minority populations. A growing body a research suggests that dosing with over 2000 ID/d is required to maintain robust normal levels.
• Studies that introduce high doses ofVitamin D (2000IU to 4000IU) improve the nutritional status of both mother and infant.

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.

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.
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

Follow us on: Pinterest
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
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!

4. Calcium demand for the baby
• A growing fetus needs 30 gram of calcium
in total(80% in 3rd
trimester)
• A suckling neonate requires even more
calcium
• If not met→ draws maternal calcium→
makes maternal bone and teeth
vulnerable
5. Calcium demand for the woman
• Each day 200-300 mg of Ca is transferred
through the placenta or breast milk
• Increased demand for maternal altered
physiology
6. Mother will try to compensate
for this by
• Increasing intestinal absorption
• Decreasing renal excretion
• Increasing bone turnover
14. How calcium is absorbed from intestine to
enter blood ?

19. Mineral transporters
(Carrier-mediated transport)
• Calcium chelates with transporter
• Orotic acid, Aspartic acid
• The chelate does not break in the acidic medium of
stomach and this prevents magma formation in the
intestine.
• Thus chelated calcium reaches intestine through which
it is absorbed as such
• Further in the blood, calcium chelate travels intact and
is delivered to the target site.
21. Calcium Orotate dissociates
inside osteoblast
Calcium aspartate dissociates in the
cell membrane of osteoblast
In osteoporosis and
calcium deficiency
conditions, defective
transport through cell
membrane is reported.
Ensures calcium delivery

• Absorption is independent of gastric HCl
• Very high absorption rate
• Absorption does not need vitamin D
• No loss of calcium- better GI tolerance
• Can be concomitantly administered with iron,
vitamins etc.
26. Vitamin D
• Not required for calcium orotate
absorption
• Vitamin D is essential in pregnancy
32. Causes of vitamin D3 deficiency
• Limited sun exposure
(Modernization that has increased hours spent indoor)
• Culture and clothing style
• Increased pollution that hampers ultraviolet rays,
hence synthesis of vitamin D3

35. Recommendation of Vit. D3
1,000 IU/day of vitamin D3 is safe in pregnancy
Obstet Gynecol 2011 Jul;118(1):197-8
36. RCOG Recommendations
All women 400 IU/d
Women at risk (obese, skin
pigmentation, decreased
sunlight exposure)
1000 IU/d
High risk of preeclampsia 800 IU/d
37. Safety of Vitamin D in
pregnancy
• Hungry Bone syndrome, hypercalcaemia
• Supraventricular aortic stenosis
• Sarcoidosis
• Absolutely safe, up to 4000 IU/d
