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.

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.

Qualifications:
MBBS (Best Graduate, AIMC Lahore)
FCPS Physiology
ICMT, CHPE, DHPE (STMU)
MPH (GC University, Faisalabad)
MBA (Virtual University of Pakistan)
Learning Objectives:
Describe the primary categories of smells and the concept of odor blindness.
Explain the structure and location of the olfactory membrane and mucosa, including the types and roles of cells involved in olfaction.
Describe the pathway and mechanisms of olfactory signal transmission from the olfactory receptors to the brain.
Illustrate the biochemical cascade triggered by odorant binding to olfactory receptors, including the role of G-proteins and second messengers in generating an action potential.
Identify different types of olfactory disorders such as anosmia, hyposmia, hyperosmia, and dysosmia, including their potential causes.
Key Topics:
Olfactory Genes:
3% of the human genome accounts for olfactory genes.
400 genes for odorant receptors.
Olfactory Membrane:
Located in the superior part of the nasal cavity.
Medially: Folds downward along the superior septum.
Laterally: Folds over the superior turbinate and upper surface of the middle turbinate.
Total surface area: 5-10 square centimeters.
Olfactory Mucosa:
Olfactory Cells: Bipolar nerve cells derived from the CNS (100 million), with 4-25 olfactory cilia per cell.
Sustentacular Cells: Produce mucus and maintain ionic and molecular environment.
Basal Cells: Replace worn-out olfactory cells with an average lifespan of 1-2 months.
Bowman’s Gland: Secretes mucus.
Stimulation of Olfactory Cells:
Odorant dissolves in mucus and attaches to receptors on olfactory cilia.
Involves a cascade effect through G-proteins and second messengers, leading to depolarization and action potential generation in the olfactory nerve.
Quality of a Good Odorant:
Small (3-20 Carbon atoms), volatile, water-soluble, and lipid-soluble.
Facilitated by odorant-binding proteins in mucus.
Membrane Potential and Action Potential:
Resting membrane potential: -55mV.
Action potential frequency in the olfactory nerve increases with odorant strength.
Adaptation Towards the Sense of Smell:
Rapid adaptation within the first second, with further slow adaptation.
Psychological adaptation greater than receptor adaptation, involving feedback inhibition from the central nervous system.
Primary Sensations of Smell:
Camphoraceous, Musky, Floral, Pepperminty, Ethereal, Pungent, Putrid.
Odor Detection Threshold:
Examples: Hydrogen sulfide (0.0005 ppm), Methyl-mercaptan (0.002 ppm).
Some toxic substances are odorless at lethal concentrations.
Characteristics of Smell:
Odor blindness for single substances due to lack of appropriate receptor protein.
Behavioral and emotional influences of smell.
Transmission of Olfactory Signals:
From olfactory cells to glomeruli in the olfactory bulb, involving lateral inhibition.
Primitive, less old, and new olfactory systems with different path

Vector-Borne Disease: Disease that results from an infection transmitted to humans and other animals by blood-feeding arthropods, such as mosquitoes, ticks, and fleas. Examples of vector-borne diseases include Dengue fever, West Nile Virus, Lyme disease, and malaria.
3. General principles of stress tests
• Ischemia testing
• Maximal workload testing (VO2max)
• Contractile reserve testing
• Viability testing
• Before the test:
– Assess the pretest probability
– Know sensitivity and specificity
– Are there therapeutic consequences?
5. Ischemia testing
• What type of test and how to induce ischemia?
• Would stress ECG be diagnostic (LBBB, RBBB, WPW,
stimuation, ST-segment changes: cardiomyopathy, LV
hypertrophy, aortic stenosis, digoxin)?
• Is exercise on ergometer or treadmill possible?
• Shall I use vasodilating agent (dipyridamol,
regadenoson, adenosine, nitroglycerine)?
• Shall I use inotropic agent (dobutamine)?
7. Stress ECG
• Pros: Cheap, available, fast, non-invasive
• Cons: low sensitivity, many non-diagnostic findings,
does not localize ischemia
• Aim: adequate workload (W/kg, age dependent), at
least submaximal heart rate 0.8x(220-age)
• Ischemia = horizonatl or descending ST-depressions
at least 1mm in two leads
• Abnormal: hypertensive hyperreaction > 250/115
mmHg, drop in blood pressure, nsVT, new Afib,
claudications, chest pain, dyspnea
9. Stress ECHO
• Dobutamine up to 40ug/kg/min
• Pros: higher sensitivity, assessment of
contractile reserve
• Cons: requires good imaging window and high
expertise, side effects of dobutamine
10. Stress ECHO
• Ischemia testing = new wall motion
abnormality
• Viability testing = contraction of previously
akinetic segment, increase of LVEF
• Low-flow low-gradient aortic stenosis =
increase of LVEF and gradient on AV
11. SPECT
• i.v. Radioactive agent (Tc-MIBI, thallium) that
binds to membranes in cardiocytes
• Detection of gamma radiation
• Measurement of relative LV perfusion
• Pros: Quantification and localization of
ischemia, good specificity, viability???
• Cons: Intermediate sensitivity, high radiation
dose

15. CT-coronarography
• i.v. iodine contrast agent, beta-blocker to slow HR and
nitroglycerine do dilatate coronary arteries, prospective
ECG gating during end-diastole
• Pros: superb sensitivity, fast, additional anatomic
information (coronary anomalies, heart chambers,
valves, aortic root, lungs, pulmonary artery), calcium
score
• Cons: lower specificity for ischemia, poor performance in
Afib, requires very good CT and expert reader
• Additional (experimental) modalities: perfusion CT, CT-
FFR
18. Cardiac MRI
• i.v. Gadolinium contrast agent, prospective imaging
planes
• Pros: best for myocardial diseases, LV and RV
volumes, masses, function and viability testing and
for congenital heart diseases
• Cons: Expansive, time consuming, expet reader,
perfusion and stress wall motion MRI are rarely
available, does not show coronary arteries
22. Coronary angiography
• Access site via radial, femoral or brachial artery with
seldinger technique (needle, wire, sheath).
• Selective engagement of left and right coronary ostia
with performed shaped catheter (4-6F = 1,33-2mm)
• In selected cases ventriculography and aortography with
pigtail catheter
• Pros: Golden standard for coronary stenosis assessment,
additional intravascular imaging and preassure
measurement (IVUS, OCT, NIRS, FFR), direct PCI
• Cons: Expansive, bleeding and contrast nefropathy
28. Fractional flow reserve (FFR)
• Introduction of FFR wire or catheter via guiding
coronary catheter distal to the stenosis
• Measurement of distal preassure (Pd) and aortic
preassure (Pa) after administration of intracoronary
adenosine
• FFR = Pd/Pa
• Golden standard of ischemia detection (FFR<0.80)
