Capt Shoaib Bin kashem shares his experience with paediatric anaesthesia at Dhaka Shishu (Children) Hospital, the largest children's hospital in Bangladesh. Key points:
- Children have different anatomy, physiology, pharmacology and psychology compared to adults which impacts anaesthesia. Their airways are smaller and more susceptible to obstruction.
- Monitoring and equipment must be appropriately sized for paediatric patients. Uncuffed endotracheal tubes are generally preferred for children under 8 years old.
- Drug dosing is weight-based and many medications are more potent in paediatric patients due to differences in metabolism and distribution. Regional anaesthesia is commonly used.

Dr william oldendorf Death anniversary Symposium Shaweta Khosa
William Oldendorf was a pioneering neurologist who developed the concept of axial tomography in the 1950s, laying the foundation for the development of CT scanning. Frustrated by the limitations and risks of existing neuroimaging techniques, Oldendorf invented a prototype device using everyday materials to non-invasively image the brain in cross-section. Though his work was initially rejected, it inspired others and helped lead to the invention of the CT scanner in the 1970s. Oldendorf made many contributions to neuroimaging and received numerous honors, but controversially did not receive a Nobel Prize. His legacy demonstrates the importance of cross-specialty collaboration in advancing medicine and improving patient care.

Features for Detecting Malware on Computing EnvironmentsIJEACS
Malware is the main threat for all computing environments. It also acts as launching platform for many other cyber threats. Traditional malware detection system is not able to detect “modern”, “unknown” and “zero-day” malware. Recent developments in computing hardware and machine learning techniques have emerged as alternative solution for malware detection. The efficiency of any machine learning algorithm depends on the features extracted from the dataset. Various types of features are extracted and being researched with machine learning approach to detect malware that are targeted towards computing environments. In this work we have organized and summarized different feature types used to detect malware. This work will direct future researchers and industry to make decision on feature type selection regarding chosen computing environment for building an accurate malware classifier.

The history of echocardiography began in the 18th century with discoveries about echo reflection and uses of ultrasonic waves. The first application of ultrasound to examine the heart was in 1953 by Paul Edler and Hellmuth Hertz in Sweden. Edler identified structures like the mitral valve but echocardiography was advanced significantly by Harvey Feigenbaum in the 1960s. The development of real-time 2D echocardiography in the 1960s-1970s, including devices created by Bom, Griffith and Henry, further improved cardiac imaging abilities. Contrast echocardiography was also described in 1968.
This document provides an overview of MRI safety guidelines. It discusses biological effects of RF, static, and gradient magnetic fields including tissue heating. It outlines specific absorption rate (SAR) limits set by the FDA to restrict RF energy absorption in tissues. Guidelines are presented for maximum exposure times to whole body, head, and extremities based on SAR levels. Population exposure limits are also defined for static magnetic fields based on field strength. The importance of monitoring for thermal injuries from patient contact with RF antennae, cables, or metallic objects is emphasized.
The field of cardiology began with William Harvey's discovery of blood circulation in 1628. Key developments include Einthoven's recording of the first electrocardiogram in 1903, Forssman's first cardiac catheterization in 1929, and Gibbon performing the first open-heart surgery using cardiopulmonary bypass in 1953. Modern techniques include balloon angioplasty, drug-eluting stents, echocardiography, pacemakers, implantable cardioverter-defibrillators, and treatments for acute myocardial infarction and heart failure. Continuing subspecialization and preventative measures based on patient characteristics will further improve cardiac care and outcomes.
The document provides a timeline of important discoveries in physiology and medicine that were awarded the Nobel Prize, beginning with Emil von Behring receiving the first prize in 1901 for developing an antitoxin to treat diphtheria. It summarizes several seminal findings and the researchers recognized in subsequent decades for advances such as the discovery of insulin, the role of chromosomes in heredity, the structure of DNA, genetic control mechanisms, the genetic code, and monoclonal antibodies. Many pioneers in cellular and molecular biology are highlighted.

PGx Analysis in VarSeq: A User’s PerspectiveGolden Helix
Since our release of the PGx capabilities in VarSeq, we’ve had a few months to gather some insights from various use cases. Some users approach PGx workflows by means of array genotyping or what seems to be a growing trend of adding the star allele calling to the existing NGS pipeline for whole genome data. Luckily, both approaches are supported with the VarSeq software platform. The genotyping method being used will also dictate what the scope of the tertiary analysis will be. For example, are your PGx reports a standalone pipeline or would your lab’s goal be to handle a dual-purpose workflow and report on PGx + Diagnostic findings.
The purpose of this webcast is to:
Discuss and demonstrate the approaches with array and NGS genotyping methods for star allele calling to prep for downstream analysis.
Following genotyping, explore alternative tertiary workflow concepts in VarSeq to handle PGx reporting.
Moreover, we will include insights users will need to consider when validating their PGx workflow for all possible star alleles and options you have for automating your PGx analysis for large number of samples. Please join us for a session dedicated to the application of star allele genotyping and subsequent PGx workflows in our VarSeq software.

5-hydroxytryptamine or 5-HT or Serotonin is a neurotransmitter that serves a range of roles in the human body. It is sometimes referred to as the happy chemical since it promotes overall well-being and happiness.
It is mostly found in the brain, intestines, and blood platelets.
5-HT is utilised to transport messages between nerve cells, is known to be involved in smooth muscle contraction, and adds to overall well-being and pleasure, among other benefits. 5-HT regulates the body's sleep-wake cycles and internal clock by acting as a precursor to melatonin.
It is hypothesised to regulate hunger, emotions, motor, cognitive, and autonomic processes.

GASTROINTESTINAL INFECTIONS AND GASTRITIS
Osvaldo Bernardo Muchanga
Gastrointestinal Infections
GASTROINTESTINAL INFECTIONS result from the ingestion of pathogens that cause infections at the level of this tract, generally being transmitted by food, water and hands contaminated by microorganisms such as E. coli, Salmonella, Shigella, Vibrio cholerae, Campylobacter, Staphylococcus, Rotavirus among others that are generally contained in feces, thus configuring a FECAL-ORAL type of transmission.
Among the factors that lead to the occurrence of gastrointestinal infections are the hygienic and sanitary deficiencies that characterize our markets and other places where raw or cooked food is sold, poor environmental sanitation in communities, deficiencies in water treatment (or in the process of its plumbing), risky hygienic-sanitary habits (not washing hands after major and/or minor needs), among others.
These are generally consequences (signs and symptoms) resulting from gastrointestinal infections: diarrhea, vomiting, fever and malaise, among others.
The treatment consists of replacing lost liquids and electrolytes (drinking drinking water and other recommended liquids, including consumption of juicy fruits such as papayas, apples, pears, among others that contain water in their composition).
To prevent this, it is necessary to promote health education, improve the hygienic-sanitary conditions of markets and communities in general as a way of promoting, preserving and prolonging PUBLIC HEALTH.
Gastritis and Gastric Health
Gastric Health is one of the most relevant concerns in human health, with gastrointestinal infections being among the main illnesses that affect humans.
Among gastric problems, we have GASTRITIS AND GASTRIC ULCERS as the main public health problems. Gastritis and gastric ulcers normally result from inflammation and corrosion of the walls of the stomach (gastric mucosa) and are generally associated (caused) by the bacterium Helicobacter pylor, which, according to the literature, this bacterium settles on these walls (of the stomach) and starts to release urease that ends up altering the normal pH of the stomach (acid), which leads to inflammation and corrosion of the mucous membranes and consequent gastritis or ulcers, respectively.
In addition to bacterial infections, gastritis and gastric ulcers are associated with several factors, with emphasis on prolonged fasting, chemical substances including drugs, alcohol, foods with strong seasonings including chilli, which ends up causing inflammation of the stomach walls and/or corrosion. of the same, resulting in the appearance of wounds and consequent gastritis or ulcers, respectively.
Among patients with gastritis and/or ulcers, one of the dilemmas is associated with the foods to consume in order to minimize the sensation of pain and discomfort.

Breast cancer: Post menopausal endocrine therapyDr. Sumit KUMAR
Breast cancer in postmenopausal women with hormone receptor-positive (HR+) status is a common and complex condition that necessitates a multifaceted approach to management. HR+ breast cancer means that the cancer cells grow in response to hormones such as estrogen and progesterone. This subtype is prevalent among postmenopausal women and typically exhibits a more indolent course compared to other forms of breast cancer, which allows for a variety of treatment options.
Diagnosis and Staging
The diagnosis of HR+ breast cancer begins with clinical evaluation, imaging, and biopsy. Imaging modalities such as mammography, ultrasound, and MRI help in assessing the extent of the disease. Histopathological examination and immunohistochemical staining of the biopsy sample confirm the diagnosis and hormone receptor status by identifying the presence of estrogen receptors (ER) and progesterone receptors (PR) on the tumor cells.
Staging involves determining the size of the tumor (T), the involvement of regional lymph nodes (N), and the presence of distant metastasis (M). The American Joint Committee on Cancer (AJCC) staging system is commonly used. Accurate staging is critical as it guides treatment decisions.
Treatment Options
Endocrine Therapy
Endocrine therapy is the cornerstone of treatment for HR+ breast cancer in postmenopausal women. The primary goal is to reduce the levels of estrogen or block its effects on cancer cells. Commonly used agents include:
Selective Estrogen Receptor Modulators (SERMs): Tamoxifen is a SERM that binds to estrogen receptors, blocking estrogen from stimulating breast cancer cells. It is effective but may have side effects such as increased risk of endometrial cancer and thromboembolic events.
Aromatase Inhibitors (AIs): These drugs, including anastrozole, letrozole, and exemestane, lower estrogen levels by inhibiting the aromatase enzyme, which converts androgens to estrogen in peripheral tissues. AIs are generally preferred in postmenopausal women due to their efficacy and safety profile compared to tamoxifen.
Selective Estrogen Receptor Downregulators (SERDs): Fulvestrant is a SERD that degrades estrogen receptors and is used in cases where resistance to other endocrine therapies develops.
Combination Therapies
Combining endocrine therapy with other treatments enhances efficacy. Examples include:
Endocrine Therapy with CDK4/6 Inhibitors: Palbociclib, ribociclib, and abemaciclib are CDK4/6 inhibitors that, when combined with endocrine therapy, significantly improve progression-free survival in advanced HR+ breast cancer.
Endocrine Therapy with mTOR Inhibitors: Everolimus, an mTOR inhibitor, can be added to endocrine therapy for patients who have developed resistance to aromatase inhibitors.
Chemotherapy
Chemotherapy is generally reserved for patients with high-risk features, such as large tumor size, high-grade histology, or extensive lymph node involvement. Regimens often include anthracyclines and taxanes.
2. William H. Oldendorf, M.D.
Biography (1925-1992)
• He was born in Schenectady, N.Y., on March 27, 1925
• He was the youngest of four children, graduating from high
school at age 15
• attended Union College in N.Y. and finished it in three years.
• He earned his medical degree from Albany Medical College
in 1947.
The true Father of Neuroimaging
3. • He completed his residency in psychiatry at the New York State Department of
Mental Health residency training program.
• He then went on to serve in the US Navy as a medical officer at the US Naval
Hospital in Newport, Rhode Island for 2 years.
• After leaving the US Navy: he entered a fellowship in neurology at the
University of Minnesota in Minneapolis and was subsequently certified by the
American Board of Psychiatry and Neurology as a diplomate in both
specialties.
4. William Oldendorf (1925-
1992)
– Dr William Oldendorf the first designer of the Axial tomography which led to
development of CT Scanner
– While being an active member of UCLA’s academic community, where his scientific,
clinical, and teaching abilities were highly admired from the outset. During this
period, Oldendorf resurrected the idea of tomography and innovated on it.
– After performing numerous cerebral angiographies and PEGs, Oldendorf, frustrated
by the gross inadequacy, and concerned about the hazards, morbidity, and mortality
associated with these procedures, approached the scanning problem in the 1950’s.
– Bill's mind was Einstein's universe, finite, but boundless. Always reaching into
spheres you wouldn't imagine." These are the words of L. Jolyon West, MD, Chairman
of Psychiatry at UCLA
5. – In 1959, Oldendorf declared his goal “to scan a head
through a transmitted beam of X-rays, and to reconstruct
the radio density patterns of a plane through the head.
• He wrote: “I developed a distaste for
these procedures. During the waiting
periods between films, I began to
imagine how one might do away with
these traumatic, arduous, tedious
tests, which provided only limited and
indirect information about the brain.
Broad, William J. Riddle of the Nobel
Debate. Science 1980; 207; 37.
6. Continue introduction:
• Oldendorf (1980) in his book “The Quest for an image of
brain” cites William Morton’s 1896 work titled The X Ray as
the first published skull radiograph.
• Despite numerous advances in X ray technology, no direct
images of brain were generated till the 1970s.
• Only indirect assessments based on skull asymmetry,
lesions or pathologies like neoplasm's causing opacities like
calcification were visualized.

8. • He is the author of more than 250 scientific publications,
including 3 textbooks.
• He also received many honorary degrees and awards,
including the President's Award for Distinguished Federal
Civilian Service,
• He was on several editorial boards and was a Fellow of
the American Academy of Arts and Sciences and many
other organizations. In 1992, he was the first neurologist
in the 20th century to be elected to the National
Academy of Sciences.
• In 1956, Oldendorf joined the University of California
Los Angeles (UCLA) faculty and the neurology staff
of the nearby UCLA-affiliated West Los Angeles
Veterans Administration Medical Center (VAMC).
•
9. • He quickly became an active member of UCLA’s academic community,
where his scientific, clinical, and teaching abilities were highly admired
from the outset. During this period, Old- endorf resurrected the idea of
tomography and innovated on it.
In addition to his wife stella, Dr. Oldendorf is survived by three sons:
Eric Oldendorf, of Los Angeles,

William Oldendorf Jr., of Sherman Oaks, Calif.;
two sisters, Florence Karlen, of Schenectady, and Dorothy Brown, of
Duanesburg, N.Y., and three grandchildren.
• Dr. William died of complications of heart disease,. in a Los
Angeles hospital on Dec. 14 1992.
• He was 67 years old at time of his death and lived in Los
Angeles.
10. Concept of Axial Tomography
• First brought forth as “Planigraphy”
• by a Dutch neurologist/radiologist, B.G. Ziedses Des Plantes
• Prof Radiology at University of Amsterdam
– Idea: 1921, Yr. I Med Student
– Tomograms 1931
• He envisioned moving an X-ray tube and radiographic plate in
a controlled manner, such that all the visualized structures
excluding those within a single plane were blurred.
• A number of other European physicists were involved in the
1930s in the developing this concept, before it finally reached
UK and the USA.
• The concept finally gave way to the biggest breakthrough in
Neuroimaging, “The CAT Scanner”.

Plantes
11. William Oldendorf & the CAT Scanner
• William Oldendorf was a well known Neurologist and
psychiatrist at the VA West LA and UCLA.
• I have had the unique pleasure of knowing him
personally as My teacher when I was resident at
UCLA.
• Oldendorf was influential in evolving the concept of
CAT Scanner.
William Oldendorf
12. • He aimed to produce a radiographic cross-section that would
delineate the distribution of tissue structures based on regional
radio density.
– Inspired by a young engineer’s attempts to use X-rays to detect
dehydrated regions in frostbitten oranges, Oldendorf developed a
model using domestic materials such ranging from a frying pan to
his son’s discarded train set
• In 1961, Oldendorf wrote his first paper on radiographic
tomography.
– In 1963 he patented his model for a “Radiant Energy Apparatus for
investigating selected areas of the interior of objects obscured by
dense material”.
13. Oldendorf’s early struggle:
– Oldendorf’s concept was revolutionary, but such a machine
had a probable cost of $250,000, and major X-ray
manufacturers unwilling to risk the capital, denied his
request for backing,
– Industry Rejection of CT Concept
– Neurological Disinterest
– Hounsfield Scoop
14. William Oldendorf & the CAT Scanner
In his prototype, a gamma ray source and detector were placed
opposite to each other with a simulated head in the middle, the
source and detector arrangement was capable of revolving 360
degrees around the head. A capacitance circuit was then used to
imitate these internal points.
15. William Oldendorf & the CAT Scanner
A sketch from Oldendorf’s patent demonstrating the principle of his device. Changes in
intensities of gamma rays are observed as they pass through regions of varying radiodensity,
these changes in intensity are plotted against time in the graphs (3A). The changes become
more apparent when the object rotates on an axis within itself (3B, 3C). Furthermore, as the
penetrating beam looks continuously at the axis of rotation, the graphs provide lateral
translation of the axis through the object. In other words discrete regions within the object
defined by the intersection of the beam with the axis of rotation are isolated, while all other
regions within the object are rejected by virtue of their transverse motion across the beam.
16. William Oldendorf & the CAT Scanner
• Having isolated one such internal point or a discrete region
of the simulated head, other regions can be successively
observed by providing a relative linear movement between
the simulated head and the axis of rotation.
• Thus a line through the simulated head is observed, and
when plurality of such lines parallel to each other are
taken, the entire interior of the head can be effectively
observed
17. CAT Scanner
– In 1963, Allan McLeod Cormack a
American physicist, came up with a similar
concept for Axial Tomography as
Oldendorf but with a more detailed
mathematical explanation.
– Finally, in 1970 Godfrey Newbold
Hounsfield a computer engineer from
England, was able to put to production a
device for Axial Tomography Scan similar
concept for Axial Tomography as
Oldendorf.
– In 1979 Cormack and Hounsfield received
the Nobel Prize in Physiology and
Medicine for “Computer Assisted
Tomography”

22. The Politics surrounding the
1979 Nobel Prize
– Rosalind Yalow, a Nobel laureate in physiology and
medicine in 1977, went on to nominate Oldendorf for the
prize and was upset that he did not get it.
– The history of the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine,
demonstrates relentless discrimination against the
physician-clinician from the basic science faction of the
Nobel Assembly.
23. • In 1979, although Oldendorf, Hounsfield, and Cormack all
deserved the prize, a deadlock persisted in the Assembly.
• According to the code of statutes for the Nobel Foundation,
and the will of Alfred Nobel, “the prize may in no case be
divided between more than three persons.” .
• However, the probable elimination of a third name
(William Oldendorf’s) led the Karolinska Institute to
announce the winners on October 11, 1979 an hour late,
and solely in the Swedish language
• The Nobel Assembly claimed that “the problem was
basically a mathematical one.”
• Cormack and Hounsfield used mathematics to produce a
visual representation of a cross-section of the human body.
• Though Oldendorf simulated the same model without
mathematical basis before Cormack and Hounsfield’s efforts,
he failed to receive the award.
24. • The intention of the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine is to award based
on “the greatest benefit to mankind and discovery.”
• The phrase “greatest benefit to mankind” is more applicable to a clinical
setting, a setting that the Nobel Assembly routinely ignores.
• Oldendorf, who aimed to eliminate invasive and painful procedures such as
PEG and cerebral angiography, certainly had the benefit of mankind in mind.
• While “discovery”, meaning a sudden increase in new knowledge or a
scientific breakthrough of high originality, is easier to define in the basic
sciences, it is evident that Oldendorf’s model, created from everyday sources,
was a discovery of high originality
25. What this history means for us
today
– Technology should never be limited to the domain of a certain
specialty, particularly when patient care is on the line.
– Today, diagnostic scanning is an integral part of neurologic
practice and diagnosis, and is a natural extension of any
neurologist’s duties.
– Erosion of a neurologist’s imaging privileges and amplification
of a neuroradiologist’s domain affects the speed and
effectiveness of image interpretation and ultimately leads to
unacceptable patient care.
26. • Such historical territories have led to a sense of entitlement for
radiologists, though specialty physicians and neurologists who have seen
cases for years are clearly more competent and effective in interpreting
diagnostic scans.
• In his President’s Message for the November 2007 American Society for
Neuroradiology (ASNR) E-News, David M. Yousem urges neuroradiologists
to engage in “strategic maneuvers” for promoting rejection of
nonradiologists out of neuroradiology fellowship programs.
• He further goes on to suggest objection to manufacturers that sell MR/CT
equipment to nonradiologists, and denial of scanning privileges to
hospitals that allow nonradiology interpretations of neuroimaging studies.
• Yousem’s proposals represent a sad abuse of authority over scanning
devices, which have ironically come about from neuroscientific research
mostly performed by neurologists and Neuroscientists and not
radiologists.
27. Summary
– Clearly, the mission of all physicians : should override issues of
income or domain and ultimately focus on effective patient
care.
– The desirable goals of neuroradiologists and neurologists alike
are exemplified in the words of Alfred Nobel in his criterion for
the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine. “benefit ailing
mankind”.
– The dedication of the father of neuroimaging, Dr. William
Oldendorf : legacy can even today be honored by ending the
neuroimaging turf battle with the neuroradiologists and
neurologists working in unison for the betterment of science
and our patients.
28. Thank You
"Bill's mind was Einstein's universe,
finite, but boundless. Always reaching
into spheres you wouldn't imagine."
These are the words of L. Jolyon West,
MD, Chairman of Psychiatry at UCLA
The fields of both neuroradiology and
neurology are indebted to Oldendorf for his
propulsion of diagnostic neuroimaging
beyond research and into clinical practice.
