Cellulitis is an acute infection of the deeper layers of skin and subcutaneous tissue, caused by bacteria like Staphylococcus and Streptococcus. It presents with redness, warmth, pain and swelling at the affected site and can spread rapidly if not treated promptly with antibiotics. Risk factors include skin injuries, underlying skin conditions, and immunocompromised states. Treatment involves antibiotics targeting the suspected bacteria, along with elevating the limb, applying warm compresses and carefully monitoring the infection site.

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

Cardiac conduction defects can occur due to various causes.
Atrioventricular conduction blocks ( AV blocks ) are classified into 3 types.
This document describes the acute management of AV block.

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.

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.

2. DEFINITION
An acute, diffuse, spreading infection of the
skin, involving the deeper layers of the skin and
the subcutaneous tissue.
Periorbital cellulitis is a special form of cellulitis
that usually occurs in children. In this form of
cellulitis, unilateral swelling and redness of the
eyelid and orbital area, as well as fever and
malaise are usually present.
4. CAUSES
Staphylococcus
Streptococcus Group A β
H. Influenzae (periorbital cellulitis)
pasteurella multocida
Facial cellulitis in children < 3 years old
Hemophilus influenzae or Streptococcus
pneumoniae
5.
6. PREDISPOSING RISK FACTORS
Local trauma (e.g., lacerations, insect bites,
wounds, shaving)
Skin infections such as impetigo, scabies, furuncle,
tinea pedis
Underlying skin ulcer
Fragile skin
Immunocompromised host
Diabetes mellitus
Inflammation (e.g., eczema)
Edema secondary to venous insufficiency or
lymphedema
7. TYPICAL FINDINGS OF
CELLULITIS
History
Presence of predisposing risk factor
Area increasingly red, warm to touch, painful
Area around skin lesion also tender but pain
localized
Edema
Mild systemic symptoms – low-grade fever, chills,
malaise, and headache may be present
8. Physical Assessment
Local symptoms:
Erythema and edema of area
Warm to touch,
Possibly fluctuant (tense, firm to palpation)
May resemble peau d’orange
Advancing edge of lesion diffuse, not sharply
demarcated
Small amount of purulent discharge may be
present
Unilateral
9. Systemic indications:
Increased temperature
Increased pulse
Lymphadenopathy of regional lymph nodes and /
or lymphangitis
12. MANAGEMENT AND
INTERVENTIONS
Do not underestimate cellulitis. It can spread very
quickly and may progress rapidly to necrotizing
fasciitis. It should be treated aggressively and
monitored on an ongoing basis
13. Goals of Treatment for Mild
Cellulitis
Resolve infection
Identify formation of abscess
Check tetanus prophylaxis
14. Non-pharmacologic
Interventions
Apply warm or, if more comfortable, cool saline
compresses to affected areas qid for 15 minutes.
Mark border of erythema with pen to monitor
spread.
Elevate, rest and gently splint the affected limb.
15. Pharmacologic Interventions
Pain management:
acetaminophen 10-15mg/kg per day po q4-6hours.
Do not exceed 75mg/kg per 24 hours
Oral antibiotics if no known MRSA or non-purulent
cellulitis:
cephalexin 40mg/kg per day po divided qid for 7-10
days uUsually first choice due to taste), or
cloxacillin 40mg/kg per day po divided qid for 7-10
days
Patients with penicillin allergy:
erythromycin 40 mg/kg/day divided bid for 7-10
days
Patients with known community acquired MRSA or
purulent cellulitis:
trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole 8-12 mg / kg per day
po bid for 7 days (dosing is based on trimethoprim)
16. Pregnant or Breastfeeding Women
Cephalexin, cloxacillin, erythromycin and
acetaminophen may be used as listed above.
Trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole is contraindicated
