1. Caesarean section delivery disrupts the normal pattern of microbial colonization in infants, dominating their gut with bacteria from the human skin and oral cavity rather than vaginal and enteric bacteria acquired during a vaginal birth.
2. Microbial dysbiosis resulting from C-section delivery has been associated with increased risk of conditions like asthma, obesity, food allergies, and inflammatory bowel disease later in life.
3. Restoring a healthy gut microbiota in infants born by C-section through breastfeeding and probiotic supplementation may help reduce the risk of these long-term health issues, though more research is still needed.
Biological diversity, or biodiversity, is the scientific term for the variety and variability of life on Earth. Biodiversity is the key indicator of the health of an ecosystem. Every living thing, including man, is involved in these complex networks of interdependent relationships, which are called ecosystems.

The New Lifestyle diseases is a Puzzle searching for an answer. These diseases emerged as bigger killers than infectious or hereditary diseases. Our view should be global as our body is a one unit containing multiple systems and organs. What is true is that our life style have been changed. We are cornered and surrounded by different kinds of pollutants. The price of our non biological inflammatory life style is
1- A state of chronic low grade inflammation which plays a role in all major diseases including musculoskeletal manifestations
2- Mitochondrial dysfunction, which is root cause of chronic diseases including cancer, nearly all chronic diseases and accelerated aging
The big question is what causes Mitochondrial dysfunction?? The aim of this presentation is to find an answer to this question

As gut health has such an impact on many health conditions, this webinar covers the issues relating to increased gut permeability, and how to support this issue from a clinical perspective. Kyla discusses the problems you may face with clients dealing with gut issues, concentrating on how to heal a permeable gut (often called leaky gut) through diet and supplements. Gut issues linked to gut permeability including intolerances, gastritis and inflammatory bowel conditions are also be highlighted.
Nutritional protocols for healing a leaky gut includes recommended tests to identify specific causes, various aggravating foods to avoid, food and supplements to reduce inflammation, and supplements to support the healing process.
"Insulin Independence" Summit on Capitol HillDavid Edelman
These slides are from the April 24, 2013 "Insulin Independence" summit at the Canon House Office Building on Capitol Hill in Washington, DC. The event previewed the future of combination therapies to restore insulin production to people living with type 1 diabetes.
Something remarkable happens when some women with type 1 diabetes become pregnant: they start producing completely normal levels of insulin.
You read that correctly: one third of pregnant women, including those who’ve had it for 20 years or more, have reduced insulin needs during pregnancy. Some need no injected insulin at all. This knowledge may soon help everyone living with type 1 diabetes. How is this possible?
Two special things happen during pregnancy. First, the body relaxes the immune system to prevent it from harming the fetus. Second, it floods the body with hormones that promote growth. This causes something that researchers long thought was impossible: brand new islet cells start forming and producing insulin.
The combination therapy approach looks to mimic this effect and transform the treatment of diabetes.

The term “inflammatory bowel disease” (IBD) refers to a collection of gastrointestinal tract illnesses marked by both acute and chronic inflammation. These are complicated, multiple illnesses that are partially inherited. IBD is becoming more common in developing nations, though, which shows that environmental variables like food are potentially important contributors to disease risk. According to the evidence, eating a Western diet high in saturated fat, processed carbs, and food additives increases the risk of IBD. While dietary components like omega-3 fatty acids, medium chain triglycerides, and non-digestible carbohydrates improve these parameters and intestinal health, dietary components like omega-6 fatty acids, long chain fatty acids, protein, and digestible carbohydrates may contribute to IBD pathogenesis by altering intestinal microbiota, increasing intestinal permeability, and promoting inflammation.

Ο Ιπποκράτης ήδη από την αρχαιότητα είχε τονίσει ότι η κακή πέψη είναι η ρίζα όλων των δεινών, ενώ ιστορικά η συσχέτιση μεταξύ των μικροβίων του εντέρου και της υγείας προτάθηκε το 1907 από τον Metchnikoff, ο οποίος υπέθεσε ότι η αντικατάσταση των «σηπτικών» βακτηρίων του εντέρου από βακτήρια που παράγουν γαλακτικό οξύ θα μπορούσε να συμβάλει στη φυσιολογική λειτουργία του εντέρου, καθώς και στην παράταση του χρόνου της ζωής.
Τα μικρόβια των μικροχλωρίδων αποικίζουν σχεδόν κάθε επιφάνεια του ανθρώπινου σώματος η οποία εκτίθεται στο εξωτερικό περιβάλλον, όπως το δέρμα, η ουρογεννητική οδός, οι αναπνευστικοί ιστοί και η γαστρεντερική οδός.
Οι μικροβιακοί πληθυσμοί που αποικίζουν τον άνθρωπο έχουν ονομαστεί συλλογικά «ανθρώπινο μικροβίωμα» ή «ανθρώπινη μικροχλωρίδα». Το ανθρώπινο μικροβίωμα είναι ένα πολύπλοκο οικοσύστημα, το οποίο εκτιμάται ότι αποτελείται από περίπου 10^14 βακτηριακά κύτταρα, που είναι 10 φορές περισσότερα από το συνολικό αριθμό των κυττάρων στο ανθρώπινο σώμα.
Έχουν αποδοθεί πολλαπλές λειτουργίες στις μικροχλωρίδες, σημαντικότερες από τις οποίες είναι η σύνθεση βιταμινών (π.χ. βιταμίνη Κ και Β12, φυλλικό οξύ), ο μεταβολισμός χολικών αλάτων, ο καταβολισμός φυτικών ινών, βλέννης και λιπαρών οξέων, η ρύθμιση φλεγμονωδών αντιδράσεων και η ομοιόσταση του ανοσοποιητικού συστήματος. Έτσι, το ανθρώπινο μικροβίωμα αποκαλείται «υπερ-οργανισμός» ή «ξεχασμένο όργανο» ή «το εκτεταμένο γονιδίωμά μας».

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

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

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.

Tom Selleck Health: A Comprehensive Look at the Iconic Actor’s Wellness Journeygreendigital
Tom Selleck, an enduring figure in Hollywood. has captivated audiences for decades with his rugged charm, iconic moustache. and memorable roles in television and film. From his breakout role as Thomas Magnum in Magnum P.I. to his current portrayal of Frank Reagan in Blue Bloods. Selleck's career has spanned over 50 years. But beyond his professional achievements. fans have often been curious about Tom Selleck Health. especially as he has aged in the public eye.
Follow us on: Pinterest
Introduction
Many have been interested in Tom Selleck health. not only because of his enduring presence on screen but also because of the challenges. and lifestyle choices he has faced and made over the years. This article delves into the various aspects of Tom Selleck health. exploring his fitness regimen, diet, mental health. and the challenges he has encountered as he ages. We'll look at how he maintains his well-being. the health issues he has faced, and his approach to ageing .
Early Life and Career
Childhood and Athletic Beginnings
Tom Selleck was born on January 29, 1945, in Detroit, Michigan, and grew up in Sherman Oaks, California. From an early age, he was involved in sports, particularly basketball. which played a significant role in his physical development. His athletic pursuits continued into college. where he attended the University of Southern California (USC) on a basketball scholarship. This early involvement in sports laid a strong foundation for his physical health and disciplined lifestyle.
Transition to Acting
Selleck's transition from an athlete to an actor came with its physical demands. His first significant role in "Magnum P.I." required him to perform various stunts and maintain a fit appearance. This role, which he played from 1980 to 1988. necessitated a rigorous fitness routine to meet the show's demands. setting the stage for his long-term commitment to health and wellness.
Fitness Regimen
Workout Routine
Tom Selleck health and fitness regimen has evolved. adapting to his changing roles and age. During his "Magnum, P.I." days. Selleck's workouts were intense and focused on building and maintaining muscle mass. His routine included weightlifting, cardiovascular exercises. and specific training for the stunts he performed on the show.
Selleck adjusted his fitness routine as he aged to suit his body's needs. Today, his workouts focus on maintaining flexibility, strength, and cardiovascular health. He incorporates low-impact exercises such as swimming, walking, and light weightlifting. This balanced approach helps him stay fit without putting undue strain on his joints and muscles.
Importance of Flexibility and Mobility
In recent years, Selleck has emphasized the importance of flexibility and mobility in his fitness regimen. Understanding the natural decline in muscle mass and joint flexibility with age. he includes stretching and yoga in his routine. These practices help prevent injuries, improve posture, and maintain mobilit

New Drug Discovery and Development .....NEHA GUPTA
The "New Drug Discovery and Development" process involves the identification, design, testing, and manufacturing of novel pharmaceutical compounds with the aim of introducing new and improved treatments for various medical conditions. This comprehensive endeavor encompasses various stages, including target identification, preclinical studies, clinical trials, regulatory approval, and post-market surveillance. It involves multidisciplinary collaboration among scientists, researchers, clinicians, regulatory experts, and pharmaceutical companies to bring innovative therapies to market and address unmet medical needs.

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. Need of the talk…
NFHS-4 says C-section rates have increased from 8.5% to 17.2% from
2005-06 to 2015-16
CDC, 2017: > 30%
Steep rise in CS delivery rates makes it imperative to understand the
potential of microbiota modulation for treatment of dysbiosis
2
3. Purpose of the talk…
To present the current understanding of both:
Microbial risk factors that increases the likelihood of a C-section delivery
and
Microbial dysbiosis that is thought to result from C-section
3
4. Introduction…
Gut microbiota plays a critical role in infant immune and metabolic
development
Mode of delivery: Major determinant of early life exposure and colonisation
In utero: GI tract essentially uncolonised, so exposure to microbes during
delivery and to the environment immediately following birth is key to
establishment of microbiota
Vaginally derived infants colonised with microbes: Lactobacillus, Prevotella,
Bacteroides, Escherichia/ Shigella and Bifidobacterium (identified from vaginal
and feacal samples from adult mothers)
4
5. C-section and microbes
Microbial dysbiosis during pregnancy often associated with complications
that can indicate C-section delivery such as pre term birth, extremes of
maternal BMI, infection, extremes of infant size and gestational diabetes
Birth via CS interrupts the normal pattern of microbial colonisation; no
longer exposed to maternal vaginal or enteric microbes during birth—>
Dominated by human skin and oral bacteria including staph, strept,
corynebacterium, veillonella and propionibacterium
5
6. Gut microbiota and diseases
Gut microbiota is intimately associated with training the innate immune
system—> Its disruption in early life can result in infections, sepsis and
systemic immune and metabolic disorders, which influence lifelong disease
risk
Microbial dysbiosis caused by Caesarean-section delivery has been
associated with an increased risk of conditions such as asthma, obesity, food
allergies, type 1 diabetes, systemic connective tissue disorders, juvenile
arthritis, inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), and leukemia
6
7. Maternal microbiome during
pregnancy
Maternal microbiome is affected by antibiotic treatment, periodontal disease
and smoking status and has been tied to adverse pregnancy outcomes
7
8. Causes of CS and confounding factors
Complications that can indicate CS delivery such as preterm birth, extremes
of maternal BMI, infections, extremes of infant size and gestational diabetes
are often associated with microbial dysbiosis during pregnancy
These indications for CS may themselves have an impact on the microbiota
and therefore confound our understanding of the microbiota in CS delivery
8
10. Preterm birth as a special case
Preterm neonates more likely to be delivered by CS: Reducing their exposure to
maternal vaginal + enteric microbes—> Resulting in differential immune system
development, which can shape microbial colonisation in their already immature
guts
Subject to higher rates of formula feeding, invasive procedures, antibiotics and
other medications that alter GI pH: Contributing to the altered assembly of
microbial community
Long NICU stays: Antibiotic resistance genes
10
11. Preterm birth as a special case
cont…
No single cause of preterm birth identified: Risk factors involves microbial
dysbiosis, including ascending UG infections, descending periodontal
infections and abnormal vaginal microbiota
11
12. Other confounding conditions
Other conditions resulting in increased rates of CS delivery: Extremes of
maternal BMI, infections, gestational diabetes and infant size
High maternal BMI is not solely attributable to genetic factors but also
microbial composition
Gut microbial dysbiosis can affect nutrient absorption, inflammation and
microbial translocations well as fetal gut colonisation and development of
fatal metabolic tissues

CS delivered infants have increased incidence of T1D, IBD and
autoimmune/ allergic conditions
Literature has evidence in form of multiple studies which imply that early life
events may dictate immune abnormalities that increase risk for diseases
later in life
14
15. 2. GIT outcomes
Antibiotics widely used during pregnancy and prior to and immediately preceding CS
delivery to prevent infections
Non culture based studies of adult intestinal microbiome show that antibiotic
exposure may purturb the GI tract microbiota for years
Microbial perturbations in GIT have been associated with Crohn’s disease
In a Danish study of 8,142 IBD people diagnosed before 36 years of age, controlling
for genetic disposition, major factor was CS delivery. Furthermore, majority of IBD
diagnosis occurred after the age of 15, implying that dysbiosis from CS delivery at
the beginning of life may have lifelong health implications

16. 3. Risk of atopy & allergic diseases
CS shown to increase food allergy
An infant’s odds of developing allergy is influenced by feeding mode (BF/
FF), which represents the first nutrition related microbes entering into the
human body
Feeding mode therefore plays an important role in exposure to and
response to food allergens in early development
16
17. 4. Metabolic syndrome
Maternal BMI may be a determinant of infant gut microbial community over
lactation
Breast milk from obese mothers tends to contain a distinct and less diverse
microbial community compared with milk from normal weight women
Breast milk microbiota also differs b/w mothers who delivers by CS vs vaginally,
which could be due to surgery or physiological stress or hormonal signals
Northern Manhattan mothers and children study followed 436 mom-child diads
until 7 year; showed that children exposed to antibiotics during 2nd or 3rd
trimesters had 84% higher risk of obesity

18. Microbiota restoration therapies for infants
A perturbed infant gut microbiota may be returned to a baseline state through
reintroduction of commensal bacteria along with breastfeeding and/ or through
pre/ probiotic formulations
US-FDA yet to approve any pre/ probiotic formulation to treat microbial
dysbiosis caused by CS delivery
Ongoing clinical trial in UK is investigating whether short term daily probiotic
supplementation with Bifidobacterium in breast fed babies born by CS
promotes a healthy focal microbiota that can be maintained with breastfeeding
until 6 months

19. Microbiota restoration therapies for infants
cont…
US-FDA trials are testing the safety and efficacy of pre/ probiotics that
targets illnesses associated with CS delivery eg: early life supplementation
with Lactobacillus rhamnosus GG in infants at high risk for asthma
Vaginal seeding: New strategy to restore healthy microbiota. Exposing CS
delivered infants to maternal vaginal contents
Results suggest that focal, skin and oral microbiome of seeded infants
more closely resemble those of vaginally delivered than CS delivered
infants

20. So, Take home message…
Association b/w microbial dysbiosis in infants delivered by CS and long
term health outcomes is a new field of research
Going forward, it will be necessary to elucidate mechanisms involved, such
as metabolic and immune pathways and microbial function, in order to
apply this research to personalised microbiome based therapies
