Cataract is a clouding of the normally clear lens of the eye. It occurs when the lens proteins clump together, preventing clear images from reaching the retina. Risk factors include increasing age, diabetes, smoking, obesity, and corticosteroid use. Symptoms include blurred vision, sensitivity to light, and fading colors. Cataract surgery involves removing the cloudy lens and replacing it with an artificial intraocular lens, improving vision. Complications may include infection, swelling, bleeding or retinal detachment.

Cornea is the clear front surface of the eye. It lies directly in front of the iris and pupil, and it allows light to enter the eye.
Cornea forms the transparent and anterior 1/6th of the external fibrous coat of the globe of the eyeball.
The cornea is the eye's most powerful structure for focusing light that provides approximately 65 to 75 percent of the focusing power of the eye.
The cornea has unmyelinated nerve endings sensitive to touch, temperature and chemicals; a touch of the cornea causes an involuntary reflex to close the eyelid.
Refractive error means that the shape of your eye does not bend light correctly, resulting in a blurred image. The main types of refractive errors are myopia (nearsightedness), hyperopia (farsightedness), presbyopia (loss of near vision with age), and astigmatism.

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.

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
ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE IN HEALTHCARE.pdfAnujkumaranit
Artificial intelligence (AI) refers to the simulation of human intelligence processes by machines, especially computer systems. It encompasses tasks such as learning, reasoning, problem-solving, perception, and language understanding. AI technologies are revolutionizing various fields, from healthcare to finance, by enabling machines to perform tasks that typically require human intelligence.
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.
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
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. DEFINITION
• A cataract is a clouding of the normally clear lens of
eye
• A cataract is a dense, cloudy area that forms in the
lens of the eye.
• A cataract begins when proteins in the eye form
clumps that prevent the lens from sending clear
images to the retina.
• The retina works by converting the light that comes
through the lens into signals. It sends the signals to
the optic nerve, which carries them to the brain.
6. RISK FACTORS
• Increasing age (protein break in lens)
• Diabetes
• Excessive exposure to sunlight
• Smoking
• Obesity
• High blood pressure
• Previous eye injury or inflammation
• Previous eye surgery
• Prolonged use of corticosteroid medications
• Drinking excessive amounts of alcohol
• an overproduction of oxidants, which are oxygen molecules
that have been chemically altered due to normal daily life
• ultraviolet radiation
• Trauma
• Nutritional deficiency – vitamin- A, B1, C
7. INCIDENCE
Incidence of Lens opacities in the “normal”
population with aging.
(Cinotti & Patti,1968)
AGE GROUP (YEARS) LENS OPACITY (%)
50 – 59 65
60 – 69 83
70 – 79 91
> 80 100
13. CLASSIFICATION
HYPERMATURE
Cataract is shrunken
and wrinkled anterior
capsule due to leakage
of water out of the lens
MORGAGNIAN
Cataract is a
hypermature cataract in
which liquefaction of
the cortex has allowed
the nucleus to sink
inferiorly
BASED ON DEGREE OF MATURITY
MATURE IMMATURE
Cataract is one in which
the lens is completely
opaque.
Cataract is one in which
the lens is partially
opaque.
15. MATURE VS IMMATURE
HOW TO DIFFERENTIATE MATURE AND IMMATURE CATARACT?
IMMATURE CATARACT MATURE CATARACT
Visual acuity is reduced to
counting fingers
Visual acuity is reduced to hand
movement or perception of light
Lens is partially opaque Lens in totally opaque
Fundus may be visible No fundus details
17. MORGAGNIAN CATARACT
Complete cortex is liquefied and appears milky white in
colour.
Nucleus settles at the bottom
Calcium deposits may also be seen on the lens capsule.
18. CLINICAL PRESENTATION
• Painless Clouded, blurred or dim vision
• Increasing difficulty with vision at night
• Sensitivity to light and glare
• Need for brighter light for reading and other activities
• Seeing "halos" around lights
• Frequent changes in eyeglass or contact lens
prescription
• Fading or yellowing of colors
• Double vision in a single eye
• color shift (the aging lens become progressively
more absorbent at the blue end of the spectrum)
• Brunescens (color values shift to yellow-brown)
25. TREATMENT
The aim of treatment is:
1. Improve vision
2. Increase mobility and independence
3. Relief from the fear of going blind
26. INDICATIONS
1. Work or lifestyle is affected by vision problems
caused by the cataract.
2. Glare caused by bright lights is a problem.
3. Cannot pass a vision test
4. Have double vision.
5. Notice a big difference in vision when you
compare one eye to the other.
6. Have another vision-threatening eye disease, such
as diabetic retinopathy or macular degeneration.
27. TREATMENT
The treatment of cataracts is :
1. Glasses
2. Better lighting
3. Surgery
a. Phacoemulsification
b. ECCE ( Extracapsular Cataract Extraction)
c. ICCE (not performed now)
Sometimes a cataract should be removed even if it doesn't
cause major problems with vision, if it is preventing the
treatment of another eye problem, such as age-related
macular degeneration, diabetic retinopathy or retinal
detachment
28. SURGERY: ECCE
Extracapsular cataract extraction
An 5 mm to 6 mm incision is made in the eye where the
clear front covering of the eye (cornea) meets the white
of the eye (sclera).
Another small incision is made into the front portion of
the lens capsule. The lens is removed, along with any
remaining lens material.
An IOL may then be placed inside the lens capsule. And
the incision is closed.
*it is usually done if the cataract is too large to be destroyed
by ultrasound
30. SURGERY: ICCE
Intracapsular cataract extraction
Involves extraction of the entire lens, including the
posterior capsule and zonules
Weak and degenerated zonules are a pre-requisite for this
method
This is the surgery of choice if there is markedly
subluxated or dislocated lens
This technique of surgery has largely been replaced by
ECCE
31. COMPLICATIONS
1. Infection in the eye (endophthalmitis).
1. Swelling and fluid in the center of the nerve layer (cystoid
macular edema).
1. Swelling of the clear covering of the eye (corneal edema).
1. Bleeding in the front of the eye (hyphema).
1. Detachment of the nerve layer at the back of the eye (retinal
detachment).
32. ICCE VS ECCE
ECCE ICCE
Small incision 5-6mm Large incision 10-12mm
Posterior lens conserved Removal entire lens
No stiches required, self healing Required stiches, long rehabilitation
time
IOL implant Aphakic eye
Post operative complication minimal Added risk for retinal detachment,
corneal edema and vitreous loss
33. PHARMACOEMULSIFICATION
Two small incisions are made in the eye where the clear front
covering (cornea) meets the white of the eye (sclera).
A circular opening is created on the lens surface (capsule)
A small surgical instrument (phaco probe) is inserted into the
eye.
Sound waves (ultrasound) are used to break the cataract into
small pieces. Sometimes a laser is used too. The cataract and
lens pieces are removed from the eye using suction.
An intraocular lens implant (IOL) may then be placed inside
the lens capsule.
Usually, the incisions seal themselves without stitches.
35. INTRAOCULAR LENS
• Insertion of IOLs during cataract surgery is
the usual approach to lens replacement. After
cataract extraction, or phacoemulsification,
the surgeon implants an IOL.
• IOL implantation is contraindicated in
patients with recurrent uveitis, proliferative
diabetic retinopathy, glaucoma.
