The document summarizes research on adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) and their long-term impacts. It finds that experiencing ACEs is strongly correlated with negative physical and mental health outcomes in adulthood, including heart disease, lung cancer, depression, suicide attempts, drug use, and more. The more categories of ACEs experienced, the greater the likelihood of health and social problems later in life. Treating trauma in adults can help prevent intergenerational cycles of abuse and benefit both current and future children's well-being.
Depression is a mood disorder with symptoms that can range from mild to life-threatening. It's a complicated disorder because it can negatively impact so many aspects of a person's life, from physical health and job performance to parenting and personal relationships. People who are depressed feel helpless and hopeless that life will never improve.

Trauma impacts significantly more students than previously assumed, so how do we tailor our teaching styles to accommodate brains impacted by toxic stress in the era of Common Core?
This Webinar was presented on Tuesday, February 15, 2011, as part of the free monthly series from Friends for Youth's Mentoring Institute with Special Presenter John Stirling, M.D.
Clinicians caring for victims of early abuse or neglect are often puzzled at their inability to respond to a more consistent and caring environment, including mentoring. This presentation synthesizes concepts from developmental neurobiology, attachment theory, and family ecology to help participants understand the obstacles faced in leaving abuse behind, and to suggest paths to more effective therapy. Mentoring is an important component in treatment and there will be a special focus on understanding the Big Picture regarding early trauma, including the physiologic response to stresses, learned helplessness, and intrauterine drug exposure, to show how these children and youth react differently and need special handling.

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
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

Recomendações da OMS sobre cuidados maternos e neonatais para uma experiência pós-natal positiva.
Em consonância com os ODS – Objetivos do Desenvolvimento Sustentável e a Estratégia Global para a Saúde das Mulheres, Crianças e Adolescentes, e aplicando uma abordagem baseada nos direitos humanos, os esforços de cuidados pós-natais devem expandir-se para além da cobertura e da simples sobrevivência, de modo a incluir cuidados de qualidade.
Estas diretrizes visam melhorar a qualidade dos cuidados pós-natais essenciais e de rotina prestados às mulheres e aos recém-nascidos, com o objetivo final de melhorar a saúde e o bem-estar materno e neonatal.
Uma “experiência pós-natal positiva” é um resultado importante para todas as mulheres que dão à luz e para os seus recém-nascidos, estabelecendo as bases para a melhoria da saúde e do bem-estar a curto e longo prazo. Uma experiência pós-natal positiva é definida como aquela em que as mulheres, pessoas que gestam, os recém-nascidos, os casais, os pais, os cuidadores e as famílias recebem informação consistente, garantia e apoio de profissionais de saúde motivados; e onde um sistema de saúde flexível e com recursos reconheça as necessidades das mulheres e dos bebês e respeite o seu contexto cultural.
Estas diretrizes consolidadas apresentam algumas recomendações novas e já bem fundamentadas sobre cuidados pós-natais de rotina para mulheres e neonatos que recebem cuidados no pós-parto em unidades de saúde ou na comunidade, independentemente dos recursos disponíveis.
É fornecido um conjunto abrangente de recomendações para cuidados durante o período puerperal, com ênfase nos cuidados essenciais que todas as mulheres e recém-nascidos devem receber, e com a devida atenção à qualidade dos cuidados; isto é, a entrega e a experiência do cuidado recebido. Estas diretrizes atualizam e ampliam as recomendações da OMS de 2014 sobre cuidados pós-natais da mãe e do recém-nascido e complementam as atuais diretrizes da OMS sobre a gestão de complicações pós-natais.
O estabelecimento da amamentação e o manejo das principais intercorrências é contemplada.
Recomendamos muito.
Vamos discutir essas recomendações no nosso curso de pós-graduação em Aleitamento no Instituto Ciclos.

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.
Pulmonary Thromboembolism - etilogy, types, medical- Surgical and nursing man...VarunMahajani
Disruption of blood supply to lung alveoli due to blockage of one or more pulmonary blood vessels is called as Pulmonary thromboembolism. In this presentation we will discuss its causes, types and its management in depth.
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.

1. Child Abuse Damages a Whole Life,
Not Just a Childhood!
Denice Colson, PhD, LPC, MAC, CPCS, CCS
Eagle’s Landing Christian Counseling Centers, Inc.
Trauma Education & Consultation Services, Inc.
6. Objectives for Today
1. Identify how treating an adult’s childhood trauma can
prevent and/or reduce future trauma for children and
motivate people to use Darkness to Light in their systems.
2. Identify the long-term impact of child sexual abuse and
other types of childhood trauma.
3. Consider the research linking adult mental health, social,
physical, and behavioral issues to childhood trauma.
7. Motivation
• What motivates me, may not motivate you.
• What motivates you, may not motivate me.
• Stages of change.
• Tapping into people’s different motivations.
• What motivates me?

The story of one sexual abuse
victim…
Years later – in a mental
institution
Who did not receive trauma informed
treatment and did not survive.
11. Adult survivors of abuse (who
have not addressed the abuse)…
Ignore signs of abuse around
them.
1.Pretend everything is fine.
2.Live in a fantasy world.
3.Put their own children in harms way.
12. Adult survivors of abuse (who
have not addressed the abuse)…
Avoid talking about abuse.
1. Can’t talk about their own abuse, and avoid triggers
like others talking about abuse,
2. Try to keep others from talking about it by shutting
them down, minimizing, or “thinking positive”.
3. Avoid awareness classes like Darkness to Light.
13. Adult survivors of abuse (who
have not addressed the abuse)…
1. Practice traumatizing behavior.
2. Demonstrate a lot of anxiety and depression.
3. Experience triggers through their children and the
children they are around at work, church, school, etc.
Experience many of the symptoms we will be
discussing
14. Prevention is Both Direct and Indirect
Adults are the ones who need to prevent, recognize and react
responsibly to child sexual abuse. Yet, the statistics clearly show
that adults aren’t shouldering this responsibility. We believe that
adults want to, they just don’t know how. (Darkness to Light
website)
While Darkness to Light focuses on preventing sexual abuse
through education and direct intervention from adults, at Eagle’s
Landing Christian Counseling and TraumaEducation.com, we
work to prevent sexual abuse and other types of child abuse by
treating adults who have experienced childhood or adult onset
trauma.
15. Curriculum
• Strategic Trauma and Abuse Recovery
• 3 Phase/12 Stage approach to addressing childhood
or adult onset trauma and abuse in teens and
adults.
16. Treating Childhood Trauma in Adults Prevents Additional
Childhood Trauma by…
Raising Awareness
As people own and voice their trauma, they become aware of trauma
symptoms in people around them.
Increasing Sensitivity
Their empathy for others increases.
Elevating Self-esteem and Self-Confidence
Their perception of themselves begins to change. They are less victim and
more survivor.
Growing Assertiveness
They begin to set boundaries with the people around them in a much more
confident and firm way. It comes from the inside.
Feeds the desire to not pass it on to
the next generation!
They become determined not to allow the impact of their trauma to be felt
by their children and the children they care for.

20. • Largest scientific research study of it’s kind.
• Initiated in 1995 and 1997- 17,000 middle-
class American adults in 2 waves.
• Analyzes the relationship between multiple
categories of childhood trauma (ACEs), and
health and behavioral outcomes later in life.
21. • 10 questions on ACE part of assessment.
• Used a simple scoring system from 0 to 10
• Exposure during childhood or adolescence to any category of ACE was
scored as one point.
• Multiple exposures within a category were not scored.
• Therefore, underestimates the frequency of childhood adversity.

34. Toxic Stress
• When experiencing stress, the stress response system is activated and the
body and brain go on alert. There’s an adrenaline rush, increased heart
rate and increased stress hormone levels.
• When stress is relieved, the body and brain wind down and quickly return
to normal. (Normal and Tolerable)
• When stress is ongoing, and there is no caring adult to buffer against the
stress, the stress response stays activated.
• Constant activation of the stress response overloads developing systems
with serious life-long consequences for the child.
• Over time, this results in a stress response system set permanently on
high-alert.
36. American Academy of Pediatrics
• “The growing scientific knowledge base that links
childhood toxic stress with disruptions of the
developing nervous, cardiovascular, immune, and
metabolic systems, and the evidence that these
disruptions can lead to lifelong impairments in
learning, behavior, and both physical and mental
health, should be fully incorporated into the
training of all current and future physicians” (Policy
Statement, Garner and Schonkoff, 2012)
37. Experiences which create TOXIC stress disengage the
frontal lobes, which, over time can lead to:
• Impulsivity
• Short-sightedness
• Aggressive behavior
• Increased anxiety
• Depression
• Alcohol and drug abuse
• Learning disorders
• Stress-related diseases
38. We Know That…
• …toxic stress doesn’t
start with the child, it
starts with the adults.
• Then the effects are
passed down,
generation after
generation.
• Can also be spread at
school, church, work,
etc
42. Suicide
The likelihood of adult suicide attempts increased 30-fold, or 3,000%,
with an ACE score of 7 or more.
Childhood and adolescent suicide attempts increased 51-fold, or
5,100% with an ACE score of 7 or more.
One study found childhood sexual abuse to be the single strongest
predictor of suicidality. (Read et al, 2001)
48. Serious Mental Health Diagnoses and Unaddressed
Sexual/Physical Abuse
51 – 98% of public mental health clients with severe mental health
diagnoses have unaddressed sexual/physical abuse
93% of psychiatrically hospitalized adolescents had histories of physical
and/or sexual and emotional trauma. Only 32% met criteria for PTSD
(Goodman et al, 1999, Mueser et al, 1998; Cusack et al, 2003)
Unaddressed childhood sexual abuse is significantly related to adolescent
and adult self-harm, including suicide attempts, cutting, and self-
starving. (Van der Kolk et al, 1991)

• Boys who were sexually abused are more likely to
impregnate a teenage girl.
• The earlier the age when the boy was sexually abused –
the greater the likelihood that he will impregnate a
teenage girl

have been sexually abused. (Calhoun et al, 1993)
Criminal Justice Problems and Unaddressed
Sexual/Physical Abuse
80% of women in prison and jails have been
sexually/physically abused. (Smith, 1998)
100% of men on death row in CA have a history of
family violence (Freedman, Hemenway, 2000)
Boys who experience or witness violence are 1,000 times
more likely to commit violence than those who do not. (van
