Eating disorders are complex conditions that arise from long-standing psychological and social factors. The three main types are anorexia nervosa, bulimia, and binge eating disorder. Anorexia is characterized by self-starvation and excessive weight loss. Bulimia involves binge eating followed by purging. Binge eating disorder involves periods of uncontrolled eating beyond feeling full. Treatment must address the psychological, medical, nutritional, and social aspects contributing to the disorder.

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

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

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
2. What are eating disorders?
Eating disorders are complex conditions
that arise from a combination of long-
standing behavioral, emotional,
psychological, interpersonal, and social
factors.
3. What are they?
People with eating disorders often use food and the
control of food in an attempt to compensate for
feelings and emotions that may otherwise seem over-
whelming.
For some, dieting, bingeing, and purging may begin
as a way to cope with painful emotions and to feel in
control of one’s life, but ultimately, these behaviors
will damage a person’s physical and emotional
health, self-esteem, and sense of competence and
control.
5. Anorexia nervosa
Characterized by self-starvation and excessive weight loss.
Symptoms include:
Refusal to maintain body weight at or above a minimally normal
weight for height, body type, age, and activity level
Intense fear of weight gain or being “fat”
Feeling “fat” or overweight despite dramatic weight loss
Loss of menstrual periods
Extreme concern with body weight and shape
6. Bulimia
Characterized by a secretive cycle of binge eating followed by
purging. Bulimia includes eating large amounts of food--more
than most people would eat in one meal--in short periods of
time, then getting rid of the food and calories through vomiting,
laxative abuse, or over-exercising.
Repeated episodes of bingeing and purging
Feeling out of control during a binge and eating beyond the
point of comfortable fullness
Purging after a binge, (typically by self-induced vomiting, abuse
of laxatives, diet pills and/or diuretics, excessive exercise, or
fasting)
Frequent dieting
Extreme concern with body weight and shape
7. Binge Eating Disorder/
Compulsive Overeating
Characterized primarily by periods of uncontrolled,
impulsive, or continuous eating beyond the point of
feeling comfortably full.
While there is no purging, there may be sporadic
fasts or repetitive diets and often feelings of shame or
self-hatred after a binge.
People who overeat compulsively may struggle with
anxiety, depression, and loneliness, which can
contribute to their unhealthy episodes of binge eating.
Body weight may vary from normal to mild, moderate,
or severe obesity.
8. Psychological factors
Low self-esteem
Feelings of inadequacy or lack of
control in life
Depression, anxiety, anger, or
loneliness
9. Social Factors
Cultural pressures that glorify "thinness" and
place value on obtaining the "perfect body"
Narrow definitions of beauty that include only
women and men of specific body weights and
shapes
Cultural norms that value people on the basis
of physical appearance and not inner
qualities and strengths
10. Treatment
Because eating disorders impact the whole person –
mind, body and spirit – treatment must be
comprehensive and individualized. The best eating
disorder treatment programs combine medical care,
individual, group and family therapy, nutrition
education, and other interventions tailored to the
specific needs of each individual.
11. Food Behavior
Anorexic
The person skips meals, takes only tiny portions, will
not eat in front of other people, eats in ritualistic
ways, and mixes strange food combinations. May
chew mouthfuls of food but spits them out before
swallowing.
Grocery shops and cooks for the entire household,
but will not eat the tasty meals.
Always has an excuse not to eat -- is not hungry, just
ate with a friend, is feeling ill, is upset, and so forth.
12. Food Behavior
Bulimic
The person gorges, usually in secret, emptying
cupboards and refrigerator. May also buy special
binge food.
If panicked about weight gain, may purge to get rid of
the calories. May leave clues that suggest discovery
is desired -- empty boxes, cans, and food packages;
foul smelling bathrooms; running water to cover
sounds of vomiting; excessive use of mouthwash and
breath mints; and in some cases, containers of vomit
poorly hidden that invite discovery.
