This document discusses environmental and nutritional diseases. It notes that environmental diseases are caused by exposure to chemical or physical agents in the environment, including diseases of nutritional origin. It then discusses the global burden of disease, noting that undernutrition is the leading global cause of health loss and that coronary and cerebrovascular diseases are leading causes of death in developed countries. Infections constitute a significant global health burden and malnutrition increases infection risk. Climate change is expected to amplify cardiovascular and respiratory diseases via heat waves and pollution and increase malnutrition as crop productivity declines.

An environmental hazard is a substance, a state or an event which has the potential to threaten the surrounding natural environment / or adversely affect people's health, and natural disasters such as storms and earthquakes.
Any single or combination of toxic chemical, biological, or physical agents in the environment, resulting from human activities or natural processes, that may impact the health of exposed subjects, including pollutants such as heavy metals, pesticides, biological contaminants, toxic waste, industrial and home chemicals.
Human-made hazards while not immediately health-threatening may turn out detrimental to man's well-being eventually, because deterioration in the environment can produce secondary, unwanted negative effects on the human ecosphere. The effects of water pollution may not be immediately visible because of a sewage system that helps drain off toxic substances. If those substances turn out to be persistent (e.g. persistent organic pollutant), however, they will literally be fed back to their producers via the food chain: plankton -> edible fish -> humans. In that respect, a considerable number of environmental hazards listed below are man-made (anthropogenic) hazards.
Hazards can be categorized in four types:
Chemical
Physical (mechanical, etc.)
Biological
Chemical hazards are defined in the Globally Harmonized System and in the European Union chemical regulations. They are caused by chemical substances causing significant damage to the environment. The label is particularly applicable towards substances with aquatic toxicity. An example is zinc oxide, a common paint pigment, which is extremely toxic to aquatic life.

Limbah yang dihasilkan rumah sakit dapat berwujud padat, cair, dan gas yang dapat bersifat infeksius, mengandung mikroorganisme patogen serta bahan-bahan kimia beracun yang berbahaya bagi kesehatan maupun lingkungan. Rumah sakit di Indonesia menghasilkan limbah dalam jumlah yang tidak sedikit, dimana limbah ini dapat berbahaya bagi kesehatan dan dapat mencemari lingkungan. Hasil studi pengolahan limbah cair rumah sakit di indonesia menunjukkan hanya 53,4% rumah sakit yang melaksanakan pengolahan limbah cair. Pemeriksaan kualitas limbah cair hanya dilakukan oleh 57,5% rumah sakit. Ini mencerminkan bahwa betapa besar potensi rumah sakit untuk mencemari lingkungan dan kemungkinannya menimbulkan masalah-masalah lain serta penularan penyakit. Limbah cair mempunyai standar batas maksimal untuk suatu limbah dapat dibuang ke lingkungan yang disebut baku mutu limbah cair. Bagi rumah sakit, baku mutu limbah cair berarti batas maksimal limbah cair yang diperbolehkan dibuang ke lingkungan dari suatu kegiatan rumah sakit.
Selain hal tersebut di atas, rumah sakit merupakan salah satu fasilitas kesehatan yang sangat dibutuhkan oleh, dan adanya rumah sakit sangat diharapkan oleh masyarakat. Keberadaan rumah sakit yang berada di tengah masyarakat dan di tengah pemukiman menjadi perhatian khusus dalam dalam pengelolaan air limbah yang menjadi produk yang bisa berdampak secara negatif. Oleh karena itu rumah sakit harus dapat melakukan pengelolaan limbah baik padat maupun cair secara baik sehingga tidak berdampak negatip terhadap penduduk, atau bila ada dampak negatip maka dampak tersebut dapat diperkecil. Air limbah rumah sakit merupakan salah satu sumber pencemaran lingkungan yang sangat potensial.
Salah satu sumber utama pencemaran dari rumah sakit adalah sejumlah besar air dan juga menghasilkan sejumlah besar air limbah yang didalamnya meliputi mikroorganisme, logam berat, bahan zat kimia beracun, dan unsur radioaktif. Hal ini disebabkan karena air limbah rumah sakit mengandung senyawa organik yang cukup tinggi juga kemungkinan mengandung senyawa-senyawa kimia lain serta mikro-organisme patogen yang dapat menyebabkan penyakit terhadap masyarakat di sekitarnya. Dampak dari air limbah ini merupakan ancaman serius bagi kesehatan manusia dan lingkungan. Oleh karena potensi dampak air limbah rumah sakit terhadap kesehatan masyarakat sangat besar, maka setiap rumah sakit diharuskan mengolah air limbahnya sampai memenuhi persyaratan standar yang berlaku. Dengan keadaan di atas, permasalahan utama yang akan diteliti adalah melihat gam

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

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

2. Environmental Diseases
• Conditions caused by exposure to chemical or
physical agents in the ambient, workplace or
personal environment, including diseases of
nutritional origin
3. The Global Burden of Disease
• DALY (Disability-adjusted life year) metric =
years lost to premature mortality + years lived
with illness and disability
• Undernutrition is the single leading global
cause of health loss
• Coronary and cerebrovascular diseases are the
leading causes of death in developed
countries (obesity, smoking, high cholesterol)
4.
5. • Infections constitute a significant global health
burden
• Malnutrition increases the risk of infection
• Drug resistant pathogens (due to clinical and
agricultural antibiotic use) are the most
important group of pathogens
• Vector borne diseases constitute almost a 3rd
of newly emerging infections and linked to
global warming
6.
7. Health Effects of Climate Change
• Cardiovascular and respiratory diseases will be
amplified by heat waves and air pollution
• Gastroenteritis and infection epidemics will be
affected by water and food contamination
following flooding and other environmental
disruptions
8. • Vector-borne infectious diseases are expected
to increase as vector numbers and geographic
distributions are altered
• Malnutrition will increase as crop productivity
wanes
9.
10. Toxicity of Chemical and Physical
Agents
• Toxicity depends on the structural properties
of the compound
• A lipophilic compound will have increased
blood transport
• Compounds may be excreted in urine, feces or
expired air or accumulate in bone fat, brain or
other tissues
11. • Metabolizing enzymes
phase I – hydrolysis, oxidation, reduction
cytochrome P-450
phase II – glucoronidation, sulfation,
methylation
increase water solubility and
hence excretion
