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.

Title: Sense of Smell
Presenter: Dr. Faiza, Assistant Professor of Physiology
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

The "New Drug Discovery and Development" process involves the identification, design, testing, and manufacturing of novel pharmaceutical compounds with the aim of introducing new and improved treatments for various medical conditions. This comprehensive endeavor encompasses various stages, including target identification, preclinical studies, clinical trials, regulatory approval, and post-market surveillance. It involves multidisciplinary collaboration among scientists, researchers, clinicians, regulatory experts, and pharmaceutical companies to bring innovative therapies to market and address unmet medical needs.
1. Although the threat of Type 2
Diabetes is certainly very real, this
condition offers a unique opportunity
to take control of our future health
and wellbeing. Contrary to popular
belief, Type 2 Diabetes is NOT
genetic. Heredity plays only a small
role in its development. It is largely
caused by lifestyle choices such as
inactivity and excessive eating
(especially refined carbs). In
particular, it is characterized by
insulin resistance. Perhaps you have
heard this term or the notion that we
are in the midst of a “Diabetes
epidemic.” These terms are often
tossed around and used as a reason
to lose weight or get blood sugar
under control, but what does it all
really mean? Let’s take a quick look
behind the scenes of Type 2 Diabetes.
Blood Sugar 101
When we eat carbohydrates such
as fruit, bread or pasta, it results
in more sugar in our bloodstream,
triggering the release of insulin.

Recommended Glucose Guidelines
Insulin acts as a key for glucose (aka
sugar) so that it can be taken in by
cells and used as energy. However,
your cells will not take in an unlimited
amount of glucose. It’s just like a car.
Once you fill up your gas tank, you
must use some of the fuel before you
can add more. It’s no different with
your muscles and sugar. The problem
results when we overeat and then do
not use the glucose we produce. Insulin
tries to coax your cells into taking the
extra glucose because the bloodstream
doesn’t want it. Your cells don’t want
the sugar either because they are not
doing anything that requires the extra
energy. This refusal to take in more
glucose is insulin resistance. A person
with Type 2 Diabetes is still producing
insulin, but their cells have become
desensitized to its effects.
Take Control!
Type 2 Diabetes rarely develops
quickly; it is the result of years of
sustained increasing elevated blood
sugar. This slow development gives
you the power to take control of your
blood sugar and all of its associated
conditions simply by knowing your
risk (i.e. glucose levels) and taking
action. Many folks think that they
don’t need to worry about their
blood sugar until after they
reach diabetic levels. This is a
costly myth! If you have a fasting
glucose between 100 mg/dl
and 125 mg/dl, your body may
already be struggling to regulate
your blood sugar; this condition is
called prediabetes. You can think
of this as a heads up that some
improvements need to be made in your
lifestyle in order to slow or altogether
prevent the onset of diabetes. Up
to 30% of people with prediabetes
develop Type 2 Diabetes with five
years.
The keys to blood sugar regulation and
Type 2 Diabetes prevention are quite
familiar:
• You must use the fuel (aka glucose)
you are producing. That means
activity – at least 150 minutes
(2½ hours) per week!
• If you smoke, QUIT! November is
the Great American Smokeout!
See our article on page 5.
• Limit refined carbohydrates, sweets
and processed foods as much as
possible.
• If you do eat these foods, pair them
with a high fiber food such as nuts,
vegetables or beans. This will slow
the rate at which your body absorbs
sugars, helping to regulate the
release of insulin and stabilize your
blood sugar.

Fresh
Cranberry
Salsa
Ingredients:
12 oz. fresh cranberries
¼ cup diced onion (any variety)
¼ cup chopped cilantro
1 jalapeño pepper, seeded and diced
¼ cup stevia
1 Tbsp olive oil
3 Tbsp fresh lime juice
Directions:
Combine cranberries, stevia, olive oil
and lime juice in a food processor
or blender and pulse until coarsely
chopped and combined. Add cilantro,
jalapeño and onion to the mixture.
Pulse until all ingredients are
combined. For best flavor, prepare
at least 15 minutes before serving.
Serve with tortilla chips, add to a
turkey sandwich, or try a dollop on
your favorite salad.
Cranberry Craze
Cranberries are one of only three
fruits native to the United States,
making them a Thanksgiving staple.
Cranberries are rich in fiber,
manganese and Vitamins C and E.
With only 23 calories per ½ cup, they
just may be the most figure-friendly
thing around during the holidays! In
terms of antioxidant content these
flavorful berries outrank nearly every
single fruit and vegetable, topped
only by blueberries. As if that weren’t
impressive enough, cranberries claim
stake to a completely unique
property in the food world: bacterial
anti-adhesion. Put simply, cranberries
prevent bacteria from sticking to your
tissues and multiplying. It is this
ability which makes cranberries a
very potent ally in the prevention and
management of:
• urinary tract infections
• gum disease and cavities (i.e.
plaque buildup on the teeth)
• heart disease (i.e. plaque buildup
in the arteries)
• stomach ulcers
But don’t be fooled by dried
cranberries, cranberry sauce and
cranberry juice! These tart berries
are typically loaded down with sugar
in order to produce these more
popular cranberry staples. Here are
some of the healthier varieties:
• Cranberry juice should list
cranberries as the first ingredient.
Try buying unsweetened cranberry
juice and add 100% pineapple or
grape juice in order to add a
natural sweetness.
• Dried cranberries have gained
widespread popularity over the past
several years, but manufacturers
make them as sweet as candy.
Look for ‘less sugar’ or ‘no sugar
added’ varieties.
• Cranberry sauce is a holiday
tradition for many, but store bought
varieties are loaded with sugar. Try
grinding up some fresh cranberries
in a food processor and mixing
them in with your usual can of
sauce. Better yet, Google a recipe
and go the homemade route
this year.
Keep It Fresh
Cranberries can be refrigerated up to
two months and will freeze well for
even longer. As with any fruit, one
bad berry will begin to spoil the
whole bunch. When you get your
cranberries home pick through them
and remove any wrinkled or soft
berries before you store them in
the fridge.

4. App in a Snap
Eat and Move O-Matic is an easy to
use, family friendly app with the feel
of a video game. Developed by the
National 4-H Council, the app helps
both kids and adults understand the
relationship between what we eat and
what we do. Simply enter a food
choice, view nutrition and calorie
content, and then see how much time
it would take to burn the calories with
a variety of activities, from computer
work to playing baseball or dancing.
The app also recommends healthier
alternatives to higher calorie foods
and provides lists of pros and cons of
different food choices.

The holiday season is a time to
celebrate and enjoy your family,
friends, festivities and, yes, even the
food! It’s no time worry about a diet
or losing weight. Don’t set yourself
up for failure with unrealistic goals;
instead, plan to maintain your current
weight and avoid packing on extra
pounds with these simple (and
reasonable) guidelines.
1. No time like the present. Don’t put
off a healthy change for fear you can’t
succeed through the holiday season.
2. Enjoy your food! Don’t deprive
yourself. It’s no fun, not to mention
nearly impossible, to enter a battle of
wits with homemade pie. So have a
piece – just cut it in half first. Then,
take the time to chew and savor
every bite. It will be more satisfying,
and you are less likely to want a
second piece.
3. Plate it. With all the finger food
sitting around during the holidays, you
could easily eat an extra day’s worth
of calories without even realizing it.
Putting everything you eat on a plate
first will help you be more conscien-
tious of the amount you are eating.
4. If you don’t love it, don’t eat it.
With the holidays come many dishes
that we don’t indulge in throughout the
rest of the year, so save your calorie
intake for the ones you really love.
5. Out of sight, out of mind. Save
your adorable cookie trays and candy
displays for when you have company.
The rest of the time, store your
goodies out of site.
6. Don’t feel pressure to make
“plenty.” There is always an abun-
dance of treats around on
holidays, so make less than you think
you will need. This will make your
goodies a coveted treat instead of a
chore to get rid of. Also, having a
limited supply will add value to your
treats … ultimately nudging you to
eat less but enjoy it more.
7. Make a date to indulge. Don’t rely
on your willpower when it comes to a
mountain of stuffing and endless
heaps of mashed potatoes and gravy.
Give yourself a break, but treat
yourself right with healthy meals and
extra physical activity the days before
and after your food-filled celebration.
8. Make it mini. When you are
baking cookies or cutting fudge,
make the servings smaller than you
normally would. You might be sur-
prised how little it takes to satisfy a
craving; just a couple of bites might
do the trick.
9. Hydrate. Take it easy on the
alcohol and drink lots of water to
help offset the negative impact of all
the extra sugar, refined carbohydrates
and starches.
10. Give yourself the gift of activity.
In addition to helping you keep your
weight in check, getting extra move-
ment will help you combat stress, lift
your mood and provide an extra
punch of energy.

The Great American Smokeout
Nov. 19th, 2015
The Great American Smokeout started
in 1970 in Randolph, Massachusetts
with a city-wide initiative to stop
smoking for one day. Residents were
asked to donate the money they
would have spent on cigarettes to
charity organizations. Since then,
millions of Americans have used the
Smokeout (held the 3rd Thursday of
each November) to carry out their plan
to quit tobacco. Since the 1960s,
we have seen a consistent decline in
smoking rates. Currently, 17.8% of
all adults (42.1 million people) are
cigarette smokers – 70% of which
report the desire to quit. Research
shows your chances for successfully
quitting are much greater if you have
help, so join the movement!
These free resources may help:
• www.smokefree.gov
• 1-800-QUIT-NOW
• Be sure to take advantage of free
or subsidized tobacco cessation
that may be offered through your
employer’s health plan, wellness
program or EAP provider.
Tobacco use is responsible for 1 in
5 American deaths. That’s more than
480,000 per year, with secondhand
smoke exposure responsible for
more than 42,000 of these. Smoking
harms nearly every organ in the body
and is the leading preventable cause
of death in the United States.
Although these winter months have
earned a reputation as “the most
wonderful time of the year,” this
sentiment can add a lot of pressure to
ensure that everything is “just right”
during the holidays. Add to that the
rising rates of seasonal depression,
stress due to traveling and competition
to give the best gifts and our “happy
holidays” can become a pressure
cooker of stress! This month, we
challenge you to take the pressure off
by committing random acts of kindness.
Here are few acts of kindness that can
make all the difference, particularly this
time of year when everyone tends to
get wrapped up in their own end-of-year
to-do list and fulfilling holiday
expectations.
• Let someone cut in line.
• Hold the door, help carry a bag/
package or pick up something that
someone dropped.
• Pay for the person next to you in line
whether it’s a fast food restaurant,
parking lot, etc.
• Buy a hot beverage for a person
working, volunteering or even living
in the cold.
• Smile at or compliment others
you encounter.
If you have ever been the recipient of a
small act of kindness from a stranger,
you know that something as simple as
a warm smile can change your whole
day. But being kind to others isn’t just
good for them; it’s good for you, too.
Research shows that being kind to
others when we are experiencing stress
or anxiety actually calms us down. Not
to mention, kindness is contagious!
One small act of kindness doesn’t just
benefit you and the recipient of your
kindness; it creates a ripple effect,
impacting more people than you may
ever know.
Mindful Minute
“No act of
kindness, no
matter how small,
is ever wasted.”
