This document discusses Duane retraction syndrome, an ocular motility disorder characterized by defective horizontal eye movement and narrowing of the eyelid when the eye adducts. It is usually unilateral and sporadic, though some familial cases are due to mutations in the CHN1 gene. There are four types described based on limitations of adduction and abduction. Duane syndrome can occur with other syndromes and limb abnormalities. Clinical features and differential diagnosis are provided. Surgical treatment depends on the type of strabismus and may include recession or resection of extraocular muscles.

Duane syndrome, also called Duane retraction syndrome (DRS), is a congenital and non-progressive type of strabismus due to abnormal development of the 6th cranial nerve.
It is characterized by difficulty rotating one or both eyes outward (abduction) or inward (adduction).
On the other hands Duane Retraction Syndrome is a congenital strabismus syndrome occurring in isolated or syndromic forms. It presents with a variety of clinical features including diplopia, anisometropia, and amblyopia.

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

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
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.

2. Duane retraction syndrome is one of the congenital
cranial dysinnervation disorders.
It is an ocular motility disorder.
There is defective horizontal movement of the eye along
with narrowing of the palpebral fissure on adduction and
widening on abduction
Usually unilateral with left eye more commonly affected
Slightly more common in females
3. Usually sporadic
Familial occurrence noticed
In cases of autosomal dominant inheritance with poor
penetrance, CHN1 is found as the gene responsible
Problems in this gene affect the axons of the Abducent
nerve and Oculomotor nerve
Rarely recessive also
Deletions are seen in chromosome 1,4,5 and 8.
4. Type 1: Most common type. Abduction is limited more
than adduction with little innervation from VI nerve.
Lateral rectus is paradoxically innervated by III nerve.
Type 2: Limitation of adduction with exotropia in the
primary position. Here also retraction and narrowing of
palpebral fissure occurs on adduction.
Type 3: Both adduction and abduction are affected.
Globe retraction and fissure narrowing occur on
adduction as usual. There is simultaneous innervation of
medial and lateral recti.
5. Type 4: There is abduction on attempted adduction as
the third nerve supplies the lateral rectus and not the
medial. Here there will be gross exotropia
One must always note whether there is orthophoria,
exotropia or esotropia as surgical corrections will be
based on the type of tropias.
6. V pattern strabismus is more common than A
Narrowing of the fissure is due to co contraction of
medial and lateral recti
Though the sixth nerve nucleus is affected the
interneurons to the medial rectus is not affected
7. Ortho, eso or exophoria
Anisocoria
Heterochromia
Ptosis
Congenital cataract
Face turn
8. In Duane radial ray syndrome radial dysplasia causing a
range of limb anomalies like thumb hypoplasia to
absence of limbs can occur – Okihiro syndrome
With autosomal recessive type deafness, facial
weakness, vascular malformations and mental
retardation has been noticed.
Goldenhar syndrome
9. Holt- Oram syndrome in which Duane is seen along with
Horner’s syndrome, keratoconus, morning glory disc and
cardiac abnormalities
Wildervanck syndrome – nystagmus, coloboma and limb
abnormalities. Cervico- oculo-acoustic syndrome.
Hearing loss due to inner ear abnormality, fusion of
cervical vertebrae causing a short, web neck (Klippel-
Feil anomaly) and Duane. Dermoid, subluxation of lens
and pseudopapilledema also may be seen
10. Klippel Fiel syndrome with micro cornea, Marcus Gunn
jaw winking and optic nerve hypoplasia
Oculo cutaneous albinism
Fetal alcohol syndrome
11. Seen in cases of trauma
Orbital tumors
Dipolpia will be present in these cases which helps us to
differentiate it from true Duane
Sixth nerve palsy is a differential diagnosis
12. Depends on
Any deviation in the primary position
If esotropia is present accommodation excess must be
ruled out and glasses must be prescribed
Change in head posture
Severe globe retraction and/or upshoot
Severity of restricted movements
Amblyopia
13. Esotropia with Duane - FDT is done to see if the medial
rectus is tight. Then up to 5 mm medial rectus recession
has to be done to correct 20 prism diopters of tropia.
Eso more than 20 PD - contra lateral medial rectus has to
be resected.
Exotropic Duane can be managed with lateral rectus
recession. For large tropias fixation of lateral rectus to
the periosteum and vertical muscle transposition can be
done
14. When dealing with more than two muscles anterior
segment ischemia must be kept in mind
Resection must be avoided as for as possible as it may
further restrict the movement
15. For globe retraction both co-contracting muscles i.e.
medial and lateral recti must be recessed
For over shoots – Y splitting of the lateral rectus along
with recession is done. One arm of the muscle is sutured
slightly up and the other slightly down so that counter
action during elevation and depression will prevent over
shoots.
