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.

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

MANAGEMENT OF ATRIOVENTRICULAR CONDUCTION BLOCK.pdfJim Jacob Roy
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.
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

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.
2. Bilateral submandibular , sublingual and submental
spaces = 6 spaces
Impending Ludwig ( close to )
Rapidly and aggressively spreading cellulitis involving
bilateral submandibular, sublingual and submental
spaces
3.
4. extension of infection from the the mandibular teeth
usually second and third molars
infection erodes through the medial aspect of the
mandible inferior to the mylohyoid line
as a result of haemolytic strepto cocci , aerobic and
anaerobic organism
virulence property - hyaluronidase , collagenase ,
fibrinolysin , enzyme that cause tissue destruction or
promote bacterial spread
5. Submental space lies between the anterior bellies of
the digastric and between the mylohyoid muscle and
overlying skin , by mandibular incisors
6. Sublingual space lies between the oral mucosa of the
floor of the mouth and the mylohyoid muscle , most
commonly seen with premolars and first molar , its
posterior border is open and communicate with
submandibular space ,
7. Submandibular space liesbetween the mylohyoid
muscle and overlying skin and superficial fascia ,
posterior boundary communicates with the secondary
spaces
8. chill , fever , increased pulse rate and respiratory rate
- toxic appearance - fatigue , feverish , malaise
- painful brawny swelling of the upper part of the
neck and the floor of the mouth on both sides
- induration , board like and do not pit on pressure , no
fluctuation , tissue may become gangrenous , when
cut - lifeless , sharp demarcation from the surrounding
normal tissue
- typical open mouthed appearance , tongue is
protruded and elevated - sublingual space
involvement , limited tongue movement
- drooling of saliva , increased salivation
9. may has severe trismus ( < than 10mm )
- difficulty in swallowing ( dysphagia )
-respiratory obstruction due to odema of the glottis
,noisy breathing ( stridor ) , restlessness, respiration
using acessory muscles , cyanosis , asphyxiation
- die from asphyxia , toxaemia , septicaemia , infection
to the mediastinum
10. Surgical intervention - surgical incision should be
under taken early before respiratory obstruction
develops ,
Aim to release of tissue tension , adequate exposure of
deep compartment , to provide drainage primary as
well as secondary spaces , more than one drain (
antibiotic alone cannot eleminate the pus ) , pus for C
& S ,
G.A. is hazardeous ,
Local anaesthesia is more safer
11. Incision in the submental area should be extended
through the mylohyoid muscle to the mucous
membrane
Emergency tracheostomy if respiration becomes
embrassed ,
Gross swelling may distort the normal anatomy of the
face and neck
Parallel incision medial to the lower border of
the mandible which extended upward to the

when retropharyngeal space is involved , soft tissue
becomes substantially thicker , space enlarge and
compromising the airway
No important contents
Posterosuperior mediastinum may also become involved

18. Three greatest potential complications
Serious possibility of upper airway obstruction as a
result of anterior displacement of the posterior
pharyngeal wall into the oro pharynx
Rupture of the retropharyngeal space abscess with
aspiration of pus into the lungs and subsequent
asphyxiation
Infection spread into the mediastinum which results
in severe infection in the thorax
23. An extension of the infection into the area not detected at first treatment may have to be I&D
24.
25. Cavernous sinus contents
O TOM CAT:
O TOM are lateral wall components, in order from
superior to inferior.
CA are the components within the sinus, from
medial to lateral. CA ends at the level of T from O
TOM.

Trochlear nerve (IV)
Ophthalmic nerve (V1)
Maxillary nerve (V2)
Carotid artery
Abducent nerve (VI)
T: When written, connects to the T of OTOM.
26. Cavernous sinus is so called
because it is divided into caverns
by fibrous septa , sponge like
appearance. It lies along side the
body of the sphenoid bone in the
middle cranial fossa and it is
formed in between the outer
layer of the dura covering the
body of the sphenoid bone and
inner layer of dura , two
cavernous sinuses are connected
by anterior and posterior
intercavernous sinus , may
readily spread from one sinus to
other
27.
28. high mortality even today
- superior spread of infection via a haematogenous
route , septic thrombosis of the cavernous sinus
- veins of the face and orbit lack valves which permits
blood flow in either direction
-
29. posteriorly via - pterygoid
plexus and emissary veins (
are communications
between intracranial
venous sinuses and
extracranial vein , foramen
ovale and or sphenoidal
foramen / Vesalires)
pterygoid plexus also
anastomoses with the
inferior opthalmic vein by a
vein treansversing the
inferior orbital fissure ,
30. anteriorly via angular vein and
inferior or superior opthalmic
veins ( supratrochlear and
supraorbital unite at the medial
corner of the eyelid ) angular
vein which then continue as
across the face as a facial vein ,
communication of the angular
vein with the superior opthalmic
vein often called nasofrontal
vein , superior opthalmic vein is
tha main tributary of the
cavernous sinus , large
communication from the facial
vein via the deep facial vein to
the pterygoid plexus
31.
32. ; six features
(1) known site of infection-
boils , furunculosis and infected hair follicles
(staphylococci infection) of the face that is drained by
the facial vein ( danger trigone ) hardening along the
course of vein , odontogenic infection , infections from
eyes ( via the superior , inferior opthalmic vein - direct
and
33. indirect through pterygoid plexus ), ears ( through
petrosal sinus ), paranasal sinuses , pharynx ( pharyngeal
plexus communicate with cavernous sinus by emissary
veins ) , tonsillar and paratonsillar abscesses
(2) evidence of blood stream infection - signs of systemic
involvement - fever, increased pulse rate & respiratory
rate , toxic appearance , blood culture positive of
Staphylococcal aureus
(3) early sign of venous obstruction in the retina
conjuntiva or eyelid- papillodema (Ophthalmoscope)
chemosis ( odema of the occular conjuntiva ) , orbital
cellulitis and abscess , 50 % motality loss vision , one or
both eyes , impairment of the vision is due to odema of the
optic nerve with congestion of the central vein of the retina
34. Superior Orbital syndrome - is characterized by
opthalmoplegia , ptosis , proptosis of the eyes , dilated
and fixity of pupil , sometime blood stained tear
trickled down the cheek , anaesthesia of the eyelid
and forehead
Orbital apex syndrome - involvement of the optic
nerve , blindness
(4) paresis of the 3,4 & 6 CN resulting from
inflammatory edema - voluntary movement of all
extrinsic occcular muscles are abolished (
opthalmoplegia ) , early one eye involvement , later
other one
35. 6 CN being the more exposed position within the sinus
and often the first to be involved
loss of abduction ( away from the midline - lateral
rectus )
- 4 C N - supplies superior oblique - impairment leads to
loss of downward movement of the eyeball if it is
adducted(move toward the midline)
- 3 C N - supplies all muscles except lateral rectus and
superior oblique , 3 C n involvement leads to loss of
adduction ( toward midline - medial rectus ) , elevation (
superior rectus , depression (inferior rectus ) , elevation
abduction ( inferior oblique ) ,elevation of upper eyelid (
levator palpebra superioris)
36. (5) abscess formation in the neighbouring soft tissue
(6) evidence of meningeal irritation - head ache ,
vomitting , photophobia , irritable , evokes reflex
spasm in the paravertebral muscles resulting in neck
stiffness in the cervical area and positive Kernig’s sign
in lumbar area muscle spasm
37. Signs of meningitis – Neuchal rigidity (unable to do
flexion of the neck) due to spasm of paravertebral
muscles
Kernig’s sign (in supine position when the thighs are
held at 90 degree, the legs are unable to extend at the
knees) due to stiffness of hamstring muscles at the
legs
Brudzinski’s sign( at supine position, when flexion of
neck, the hips and knees also flex involuntarily)
38. patient in supine , flex
the neck until the chin
touches the chest
Brudzinski’s sign -
flexion of hips and knees
in response to passive
neck flexion
39. Kernig’s sign - patient in
supine , both legs
extended , contraction of
hamstrings in response
to knee extension while
hip is flexed
40. die from , septicaemia , meningitis , enchephalitis
- Treatment - antibiotic therapy ,corticosteroid are
recommended to prevent circulatory collapse
secondary to pituitary dysfunction , controversy - use
of anticoagulant because of spread of infection ,
surgical access through eye enucleation , neuro
surgical management
41. is a rapidly spreading soft-tissue infection that involves
the subcutaneous tissues
produces morbidity and in some instances mortality
Most cases occur in the extremities, abdomen and
perineum
a rare complication from dental infection
Sometimes as a result of minimal skin trauma or a
simple tooth extraction
42. polymicrobial
bacteria involved are the same species as those that
cause chronic dental infections in the gingival crevice
or periapical infections of the jaw
immunocompromised, but also can occur in healthy
people
Obesity????
43. typically is febrile
elevated WBC counts
also might be hypotensive and tachycardia
pain is severe and out of proportion to the clinical
findings
can be hypo aesthetic or anesthetic
44. within 24 - 48 hours , the area become red ,
edematous and painful , but soon becomes anaesthetic
, well or ill demarcated , becomes dusky , purplish and
black
4- 5 days necrosis of the skin appears , release of
brownish exudate with gas bubbles
the necrotic tissue starts to separate within 8 - 10 days
45. Rapid surgical debridement is warranted to stop the
necrosis from spreading
radical surgical debridement of necrotic tissue
definitively by inspecting the tissue and performing a
biopsy
incision in advance of the line of necrosis to prevent
subcutaneous spreading along fascial planes
. The practitioner should make incision into the
affected tissue produces virtually no bleeding
Drainage appears dishwater like
Blood vessels are thrombosed
Fetor odor indicating necrotic tissue is characteristic
46. tracheostomy or endotracheal intubationto protect the
patient’s airway owing to severe neck swelling
Ventilator support is required in patients with severe
cases of CNF, owing to acute respiratory failure
Skin graft may be necessary later in case of large skin
defect
47. A delay in seeking treatment for odontogenic infection is a common finding
early stages may resemble odontogenic cellulitis or as abscess
55. Cardiovascular intensive measures such as intravenous
(IV) fluids and medication to support the patient’s
blood pressure and heart rate.
Hyperbaric oxygen therapy(HBO) is an adjunctive
treatment for CNF. It has shown a beneficial effect.
56. Overwhelming sepsis, mediastinitis and
multiple organ failures
If mediastinum involvement occurs, the mortality rate
is approximately 50 percents.
57. Must be hospitalised
Surgical and medical management require more
extensive and aggressive treatment
58. Medical support of the patient with special attention
to correcting host defense compromises where they
exist
Administration of the proper antibiotics in appropriate
doses
Surgical removal of the source of infection as early as
possible
Surgical drainage of the infection with placement of
proper drains
Constant reevaluation of the resolution of the
infection
59. Surgeon must not wait for unequivocal evidence of
pus formation
I&D must be extensive , various sites
At OTh
Aggressive exploration of the involved fascial space
One or more drain require to provide adequate
drainage and decompression of the infected area
Removal of the source of infection as early as possible ,
removal of drain should not be done prior to the
extraction of the causative tooth
60. Support host defense mechanism including analgesics
, fluid requirements and nutrition
High dose bacteriacidal antibiotics
Almost always administered intravenously
Mouth rinses - 0.02 % Chlorhexidine gluconate, bland
M/W
Mouth opening exercise - active and passive
61. Airway continually monitored
If respiration becomes embrassed surgical airway
established if warranted
Emergency tracheostomy , gross swelling may distort
the normal anatomy of the face and neck
