Type 2 diabetes is a multifactorial disorder characterised by progressive pancreatic beta-cell dysfunction and insulin- resistance, leading to relative insulin deficiency, chronic hyperglycaemia, and various complications.
The treatment options for this disorder, which aim at correcting one or other of the two major pathophysiological mechanisms, have been hamstrung by unacceptable side-effects, lack of patient acceptability, and loss of efficacy over time.

Diabetic nephropathy is a clinical syndrome characterized by the following :
Persistent albuminuria (>300 mg/d or >200 μg/min) that is confirmed on at least 2 occasions 3-6 months apart.
Progressive decline in the glomerular filtration rate (GFR).
Elevated arterial blood pressure.
Three major histologic changes occur in the glomeruli of persons with diabetic nephropathy:
First, mesangial expansion is directly induced by hyperglycemia, perhaps via increased matrix production or glycation of matrix proteins.
Second, thickening of the glomerular basement membrane (GBM) occurs.
Third, glomerular sclerosis caused by intraglomerular hypertension (induced by dilatation of the afferent renal artery or from ischemic injury induced by hyaline narrowing of the vessels supplying the glomeruli).
These different histologic patterns appear to have similar prognostic significance.
Several issues are key in the medical care of patients with diabetic nephropathy.
These include glycemic control, management of hypertension, and reducing dietary salt intake and phosphorus and potassium restriction in advanced cases.
A meta-analysis from the Cochrane Database shows a large fall in blood pressure with salt restriction, similar to that of single-drug therapy

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.

Recomendações da OMS sobre cuidados maternos e neonatais para uma experiência pós-natal positiva.
Em consonância com os ODS – Objetivos do Desenvolvimento Sustentável e a Estratégia Global para a Saúde das Mulheres, Crianças e Adolescentes, e aplicando uma abordagem baseada nos direitos humanos, os esforços de cuidados pós-natais devem expandir-se para além da cobertura e da simples sobrevivência, de modo a incluir cuidados de qualidade.
Estas diretrizes visam melhorar a qualidade dos cuidados pós-natais essenciais e de rotina prestados às mulheres e aos recém-nascidos, com o objetivo final de melhorar a saúde e o bem-estar materno e neonatal.
Uma “experiência pós-natal positiva” é um resultado importante para todas as mulheres que dão à luz e para os seus recém-nascidos, estabelecendo as bases para a melhoria da saúde e do bem-estar a curto e longo prazo. Uma experiência pós-natal positiva é definida como aquela em que as mulheres, pessoas que gestam, os recém-nascidos, os casais, os pais, os cuidadores e as famílias recebem informação consistente, garantia e apoio de profissionais de saúde motivados; e onde um sistema de saúde flexível e com recursos reconheça as necessidades das mulheres e dos bebês e respeite o seu contexto cultural.
Estas diretrizes consolidadas apresentam algumas recomendações novas e já bem fundamentadas sobre cuidados pós-natais de rotina para mulheres e neonatos que recebem cuidados no pós-parto em unidades de saúde ou na comunidade, independentemente dos recursos disponíveis.
É fornecido um conjunto abrangente de recomendações para cuidados durante o período puerperal, com ênfase nos cuidados essenciais que todas as mulheres e recém-nascidos devem receber, e com a devida atenção à qualidade dos cuidados; isto é, a entrega e a experiência do cuidado recebido. Estas diretrizes atualizam e ampliam as recomendações da OMS de 2014 sobre cuidados pós-natais da mãe e do recém-nascido e complementam as atuais diretrizes da OMS sobre a gestão de complicações pós-natais.
O estabelecimento da amamentação e o manejo das principais intercorrências é contemplada.
Recomendamos muito.
Vamos discutir essas recomendações no nosso curso de pós-graduação em Aleitamento no Instituto Ciclos.

Acute scrotum is a general term referring to an emergency condition affecting the contents or the wall of the scrotum.
There are a number of conditions that present acutely, predominantly with pain and/or swelling
A careful and detailed history and examination, and in some cases, investigations allow differentiation between these diagnoses. A prompt diagnosis is essential as the patient may require urgent surgical intervention
Testicular torsion refers to twisting of the spermatic cord, causing ischaemia of the testicle.
Testicular torsion results from inadequate fixation of the testis to the tunica vaginalis producing ischemia from reduced arterial inflow and venous outflow obstruction.
The prevalence of testicular torsion in adult patients hospitalized with acute scrotal pain is approximately 25 to 50 percent

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

EMPA-REG Outcome trial
Empagliflozin,
Cardiovascular Outcomes, and Mortality
in Type 2 Diabetes
-Anirudhya J
2. SGLT2 Inhibitors
• New class of oral anti-diabetic drugs which act by inhibiting
Sodium-glucose transporter 2 in the proximal tubule, thereby
decreasing renal glucose re-absorption and increasing urinary
glucose excretion.
• Includes Canagliflozin, Dapagliflozin and Empagliflozin.
• Empagliflozin was approved by FDA in Aug, 2014.
3. Empagliflozin
Advantages:
• Lower rate of the primary composite cardiovascular
outcome and of death from any cause
• Weight loss and reduction in BP without increase in heart
rate
• Disadvantages :
• Genital infection and UTI
• Not to be used in CKD > Stage 3
4. Aim
To study the effects of empagliflozin in addition to
standard care, on cardiovascular morbidity and
mortality in patients with type 2 diabetes at high
cardiovascular risk.
5. Why this trial ?
• Several health authorities have stressed on the need to
demonstrate cardiovascular safety of new antidiabetes drugs.
• In Sep 2010, US FDA and EMA implemented an immediate
suspension of Rosiglitazone as it was found to have increased
risk of cardiovascular events including acute MI and CVA.
6. • Study population :7020
• Study period : September 2010 - April 2013
• Study place : Multi-centric study conducted in
various hospitals in USA and Europe
• Type of study : Randomized, double-blind, placebo-
controlled trial
7. Inclusion criteria
Eligible patients with type 2 diabetes were :
• Adults (≥18 years of age)
• With a BMI of 45 or less
• Estimated GFR of at least 30 ml per minute per
1.73 m2 of body-surface area.
8. Method
Patients meeting the inclusion criteria were
randomly assigned in a 1:1:1 ratio to receive
1.10 mg Empagliflozin
2.25 mg Empagliflozin
3.Placebo
9. Methodologycontd…
• Background glucose-lowering therapy was to
remain unchanged for the first 12 weeks after
randomization.
• Other cardiovascular risk factors including
dyslipidemia and hypertension were treated
throughout the trial.
• Patients were instructed to attend the clinic at
prespecified times, which included a follow-up
visit 30 days after the end of treatment.
10. Study outcomes
The primary outcome was a composite of death
from cardiovascular causes, nonfatal myocardial
infarction, or nonfatal stroke.
The key secondary outcome was a composite of the
primary outcome plus hospitalization for unstable
angina.
11.
12.
13.
14.
15. Hence we infer
• that the mechanisms behind the cardiovascular
benefits of empagliflozin are multidimensional and
possibly involve changes in arterial stiffness, cardiac
function, and cardiac oxygen demand as well as
cardiorenal effects- reduction in albuminuria,
reduction in uric acid, and established effects on
hyperglycemia, weight, visceral adiposity, and blood
pressure.
• It was observed that genital infection and UTI was
more common in patients treated with empagliflozin.
16. • The proportions of patients with confirmed
hypoglycemic adverse events, acute renal failure,
diabetic ketoacidosis, thromboembolic events, bone
fracture, and events consistent with volume depletion
were similar in the two study groups.
17. Conclusion
Patients with type 2 diabetes at high risk for
cardiovascular events who received empagliflozin,
as compared with placebo, had a lower rate of the
primary composite cardiovascular outcome and of
death from any cause when the study drug was
added to standard care.
