The colon extends from the cecum to the rectum and consists of four parts: the ascending colon, transverse colon, descending colon, and sigmoid colon. It is supplied by branches of the superior and inferior mesenteric arteries and drains into the portal vein. The colon is innervated by the sympathetic and parasympathetic fibers of the autonomic nervous system.

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

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.

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!
2. Colon
• Extends superiorly from the cecum.
• Consists of 4 parts:
-ascending colon
-transverse colon
-descending colon
-sigmoid colon
• Ascending and
descending segments
are retroperitoneal and
transverse and sigmoid
segments are intraperitoneal.
3. Ascending Colon
• Lies in the right lower quadrant of trunk.
• It extends from the cecum, upward to the inferior surface
of right lobe of liver.
• At this position, it turns left to form the right colic
flexure and becomes continuous with the
transverse colon.
• The peritoneum covers the front and the sides of
the ascending colon and binds it to the posterior
abdominal wall.

Veins
-The veins correspond to the arteries and eventually drain into
the superior mesenteric vein.
• Lymph drainage:
-The lymph vessels drain into lymph nodes lying along the course
of the blood vessels of the ascending colon. Ultimately the
lymph reaches the superior mesenteric lymph nodes.
• Nerve supply to ascending colon:
- receives sympathetic and parasympathetic nerves from the
superior mesenteric plexus.
7. Transverse Colon
• Passes from right
hypochondriac region into
left hypochondriac region.
• Extends from right colic
flexure to left colic flexure
below the spleen.
• The left colic flexure is
higher and more posterior
than the right colic flexure
,and is attached to the
diaphragm by the phrenicocolic
ligament.

where it eventually drains to the inferior mesenteric
lymph nodes, which are situated around the root of
inferior mesenteric artery.
• Nerve supply to ascending colon:
- receives sympathetic and parasympathetic pelvic
splanchnic nerves through the inferior mesenteric plexus.
13. Sigmoid Colon
• Begins where descending
colon passes in front of the
pelvic brim. Below, it
becomes continuous with
the rectum at the level of S3.
• Completely surrounded
by peritoneum.
• Sigmoid colon is mobile
up to a certain extent.
