Eating disorders are complex, bio-psycho-social conditions, with multiple causes. Eating disorders arise from a combination of established social, psychological, biological, and interpersonal factors. While they may begin with preoccupations with food and weight, they are most often about much more than food. It is important to understand that the factors that contribute to eating disorders are complex and multifaceted; they are not simply about weight and they are certainly not choices.
The topic is "Eating disorders" which has many psychological causes and impacts on the mental condition of the patient. Moreover, the presentation covers the psychological treatment of such conditions along with other treatment plans.

Flu Vaccine Alert in Bangalore Karnatakaaddon Scans
As flu season approaches, health officials in Bangalore, Karnataka, are urging residents to get their flu vaccinations. The seasonal flu, while common, can lead to severe health complications, particularly for vulnerable populations such as young children, the elderly, and those with underlying health conditions.
Dr. Vidisha Kumari, a leading epidemiologist in Bangalore, emphasizes the importance of getting vaccinated. "The flu vaccine is our best defense against the influenza virus. It not only protects individuals but also helps prevent the spread of the virus in our communities," he says.
This year, the flu season is expected to coincide with a potential increase in other respiratory illnesses. The Karnataka Health Department has launched an awareness campaign highlighting the significance of flu vaccinations. They have set up multiple vaccination centers across Bangalore, making it convenient for residents to receive their shots.
To encourage widespread vaccination, the government is also collaborating with local schools, workplaces, and community centers to facilitate vaccination drives. Special attention is being given to ensuring that the vaccine is accessible to all, including marginalized communities who may have limited access to healthcare.
Residents are reminded that the flu vaccine is safe and effective. Common side effects are mild and may include soreness at the injection site, mild fever, or muscle aches. These side effects are generally short-lived and far less severe than the flu itself.
Healthcare providers are also stressing the importance of continuing COVID-19 precautions. Wearing masks, practicing good hand hygiene, and maintaining social distancing are still crucial, especially in crowded places.
Protect yourself and your loved ones by getting vaccinated. Together, we can help keep Bangalore healthy and safe this flu season. For more information on vaccination centers and schedules, residents can visit the Karnataka Health Department’s official website or follow their social media pages.
Stay informed, stay safe, and get your flu shot today!

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
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

– Low self-esteem
– Feelings of inadequacy or lack of control in life
– Depression, anxiety, anger or loneliness
• Interpersonal
– Troubled family and personal relationships
– Difficulty expressing emotions and feelings
– History of being teased or ridiculed on size or
weight
3. Contributing Factors (Cont’d)

- In some individuals with eating
disorders, certain chemicals in the
brain that control hunger, appetite and
digestion are imbalanced.
• Biological
-Eating disorders run in families. Genes are
a contributing factor to eating disorders.
4. Contributing Factors (Cont’d)

5. What is an Eating Disorder?
• Anorexia Nervosa
-characterized by self-starvation and excessive weight loss.
Because of the fear of gaining weight, people with this
disorder restrict the amount of food they consume.
• Bulimia Nervosa
-characterized by a cycle of bingeing and compensating by self-
induced vomiting, abusing a laxative, diuretic, or stimulatic
and/or excessive exercising because of an extensive concern
for body weight.
• Binge Eating Disorder
-characterized by recurrent binge eating without control.
6. Health Consequences of Anorexia Nervosa
• Abnormally slow heart rate
• Reduction of bone density
• Fainting, fatigue
• Dry hair and skin
• Severe dehydration which can result in kidney
failure
7. Health Consequences of Bulimia
• Irregular heartbeats and possibly
heart failure
• Inflammation and possible rupture of
esophagus from frequent vomiting.
• Chronic irregular bowel movements
8. Health Consequences of Binge Eating
Disorder (BED)
• High blood pressure
• High cholesterol levels
• Heart disease
• Diabetes
• Gallbladder disease
9. Statistics about Eating Disorders
• Approximately 90-95% of sufferers are girls and women
• 1 to 3% of young women in the West have an eating
disorder such as anorexia nervosa , bulimia or binge eating
• In the West, eating disorders are the third most common
serious medical disorder in adolescents after asthma and
depression.
• In a study of Singapore Chinese schoolgirls with a mean age
of 16.5 years, 56% felt overweight despite a mean BMI of
18.89
• Between 5% - 20% of sufferers will die.
• Eating disorders typically appear in early to mid-
adolescence.
10. Warning Signs of Eating Disorders
• Dramatic weight loss or weight gain
• Preoccupation with weight, food, calories and
dieting
• Frequent comments about feeling “fat”
• Denial of hunger.
• Consistent excuses to avoid mealtimes.
• Withdrawal from usual friends and activities.
11. Warning Signs of Eating Disorders
(Cont’d)
• Frequent trips to the bathroom after meals,
signs and smells of vomiting.
• Discolouration or staining of the teeth
• For Binge eating, includes eating much more
rapidly than normal and often eating alone
because of shame or embarrassment.
12. Treatments/Therapies
• Adequate nutrition, reducing excessive exercise and
stopping purging behaviours are the foundations of
treatment. Specific forms of psychotherapy, or talk
therapy, and medication are effective for many eating
disorders. However, in more chronic cases, specific
treatments have not yet been identified. Treatment plans
often are tailored to individual needs and may include
one or more of the following
• 1. Individual, group or family psychotheraphy
• 2. Medical care and monitoring
• 3. Nutritional counseling
• 4. Medications
13. How to Intervene
• It is important to express your concerns in a
loving and supportive way to the sufferer.
• It is also necessary to discuss your worries
with the sufferer early on rather than wait
until the sufferer has endured damaging
physical and emotional effects of eating
disorder.
• Request the sufferer to explore your concerns
with a counselor, doctor or nutritionist
regarding eating issues. Accompany the
sufferer on their first visit.
