The document provides an overview of the nervous system and cholinergic transmission. It describes the central nervous system, peripheral nervous system, autonomic nervous system and its sympathetic and parasympathetic divisions. It discusses the cholinergic receptors, muscarinic and nicotinic, their locations, functions and the effects of cholinergic agonists. It also summarizes the uses, mechanisms and side effects of cholinomimetic drugs like acetylcholine, anti-cholinesterases and cholinergic alkaloids in various organs.

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

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.

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

Shorter preganlionic fibres
Preganglionic NT: Acetylcholine
Postganlionic NT: Norepinephrine (Noradrenaline); Acetylcholine at some sites
Parasympathetic NS
Craniosacral outflow
Ganglions are within or near to target organ
Longer preganglionic fibers
Preganglionic NT: Acetylcholine
Postganglionic NT: Acetylcholine; Nitric oxide at some sites
GPCR: G-protein coupled receptors; i.e. the response is carried out by attached GTP protein to the interior surface of receptor
M1 M3 M5: Gq coupled – Phospholipase C - IP3/DAG-Ca++; Gq – PLA2 – PG/LKT synthesis
M2 M4: Gi mediated – opening of K+ channels (beta,gamma subunit)– inhibit adenylyl cyclase (alpha subunit) – hyperpolarization/reduced activity
M2: SA node: decreased impulse generation; AV node: decrease velocity of conduction; Atrium: shortening of APD, decreased contractility; Ventricle: decreased contractility
Synthesised from Acetyl CoA and Choline in presence of Choline Acetyl Transferase
Stored in vesicles
Released when impulses arrives by exocytosis
Degraded by Acetylcholinesterase (AChE)
EDRF: endothelium dependent relaxing factor
Source: Pilocarpus microphyllus
Dose dependent CVS Effects
Small dose – fall in BP
Higher dose – rise in BP and tachycardia
Use: As Miotics (counteract mydriatics used for refraction, along with mydriatics to prevent/break adhesions, In open angle glaucoma
Intensity of action on muscarinic, nicotinic and CNS varies among different agents
Ganglia: stimulation at low dose, blockade at high dose
Stimulation via M1 receptors
High dose: persistent depolarization depletion of ACh blockade of transmission
CVS: complex, unpredictable effects
Muscarinic: bradycardia, hypotension; Ganglionic: tachycarida, hypertension
Action on medullary centres(stimulation then depression), ganglion blockade at high doses
Skeletal Muscles: twitching and fasciculations at low dose, weakness and paralysis at high dose
Prolonged action of ACh on motor end plates and prejunctional fibres twitching and fasciculations
High dose: persistent depolarization neuromuscular transmission blockade weakness and paralysis
CNS: general arousal at low dose, excitement, confusion at high dose
Lipophilic agent: generalised alerting response, improved cognition in Alzheimer’s Disease
Higher doses: excitement, mental confusion, disorientation, tremors, convulsions, coma
Prevent/break adhesions (iris-lens, iris-cornea): in conjunction with mydriatics
Treatment:
