WORLD TUBERCULOSIS DAY 2023 AWARENESS.pptxanjalatchi
World TB Day 2023, with the theme 'Yes! We can end TB!', aims to inspire hope and encourage high-level leadership, increased investments, faster uptake of new WHO recommendations, adoption of innovations, accelerated action, and multisectoral collaboration to combat the TB epidemic.
Diabetes mellitus is a major global public health problem. The rise in global prevalence is expected to reach 5.4% or 300 million worldwide by 2025, with developed countries carrying a larger burden (1). Malaysia is not spared from this phenomena, with an alarming rise in prevalence of Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) over the past fifteen years, from 8.3% (NHMS 1, 1996) to 20.8% (NHMS IV, 2011) (2). What is most worrying is the figure for undiagnosed diabetics, which recorded almost a ten-fold increase (from 1.8% to 10.1%) within the same period. The national economic burden for provision of ambulatory or outpatient care for diabetes patients alone was estimated to cost the Ministry of Health RM 836 million, which took up 2.2% of the nation’s total health expenditure for 2009 (3). The average provider cost per outpatient visit for diabetes treatment at primary care was RM393.24, compared to RM 2707.44 at Specialist diabetic clinics. Treatment at primary care health centres was also highly cost effective compared to Specialist diabetic clinics (4). Due to the chronic nature of the disease, its many related complications and the progress in medical expertise, the costs to provide health care for the this group can only be expected to escalate in years to come. Strategies to effectively treat the chronic diseases (i.e. NCDs and T2DM) have been in place since the 1990s, however, the National Strategic Planning for Non-Communicable Diseases, (NSPNCD)(5) recommends that efforts should be channeled towards primary prevention, early NCD risk factor identification and NCD risk factor intervention or “clinical preventive services”. The clinical preventive services however, need to be emphasised, as early preventive measures can reduce long-term complications and morbidity related to diabetes. The risk factors which should trigger clinicians to provide clinical preventive measures include: obesity, sedentary lifestyles, dietary indiscretions, elderly (for late onset diabetes, pancreas insufficiency), family history of diabetes (risk in offspring of one diabetic parent: 30%, both parents: 60%). The 10th Malaysian Plan : Country Health Plan aims to restructure the national healthcare financing and healthcare delivery system to ensure universal health coverage of healthcare services to be provided at minimal cost using the existing infrastructure in delivering continuity of care across programmes, across healthcare settings and across healthcare providers (6). To reduce the fragmentation of care which commonly occurs in most NCD programmes, there is a need to involve healthcare providers within the healthcare service to be orientated in their roles and contribution in providing a seamless long-term care programme. It is hoped that this effort will benefit not only the patients but also provide relevant feedback on quality of healthcare service provision by the stakeholders.

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

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!
Lung Cancer: Artificial Intelligence, Synergetics, Complex System Analysis, S...Oleg Kshivets
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

53. CANCER
One of 5 main cause of death since 20
years ago.
Incidence -150 per 100,000 pop. (31,700
cases a year), the cases and deaths due to
cancer are on the rise.
Related to lifestyle and the environment.
54. Burden of Cancer
• Incidence -150 per 100,000 pop. (30,000 case a
year)
• Prevalence – 90,000
• Incidence expected to rise with an increase of
aging population.
– >60 yrs
• 1957 4.6%
• 1990 5.7%
• 2020 9.8%

58. Diabetes Mellitus – (NHMS3)
• Overall prevalence was 11.6%. Known
diabetes was 7.0%. Newly diagnosed
diabetes was 4.5%.

the rural areas at 10.5%.
• Between ethnicity, Indians have the highest
prevalence of 19.9% , followed by Malays
11.9% and Chinese 11.4%.
66. Conclusion
• Malaysia is a country undergoing a health transition
• Improving socioeconomic status and aging
population leads to chronic & degenerative
diseases. Problems such as;
Occupational diseases
Chemical poisoning from industry and agriculture
Diseases due to air pollution
Work injury and MVA
Disease related to urbanisation
• Trend of disease approaching those of developed
countries and yet unable to shake off the diseases of
developing countries. A double burden…………
Hipertensi Prevalens hipertensi semakin meningkat di Malaysia. Menurut penemuan awal, prevalens hipertensi dianggarkan 14.7% pada 1980. Kajian dikalangan Orang Melayu di Kuala Selangor, dari 359 sampel yang diperiksa tekanan darahnya 92 atau 25.6% penduduk yang berumur 15 tahun dan keatas mengalami hipertensi (Osman Ali et al. 1984a, Osman ali 1990d). Prevalensnya meningkat menurut umur dan tinggi dikalangan perokok.(jadual 6).

CABARAN MENDATANG AKIBAT PERALIHAN KESIHATAN Corak penyakit yang akan terjadi di negara yang mengalami permodenan pesat seperti Malaysia tidak akan jauh berbeza dengan corak yang telah berlaku di negara maju pada masa kini. Dijangkakan akan terdapat peningkatan berterusan penyakit kardiovaskular, kanser dan injuri dalam tempuh 30 tahun akan datang disebabkan oleh permodenan dan perubahan gaya hidup (first fruit of affluence), kemudian kadar penyakit-penyakit tersebut akan stabil seterusnya menurun akibat meningkatnya pendidikan dan kesedaran tentang kesihatan seperti yang sedang dialami oleh negara-negara maju masa kini (second fruit of affluence)(jadual 14). Selain dari peningkatan sosioekonomi, corak penyakit masa akan datang dipengaruhi oleh umur penduduk memandangkan kadar kematian yang berkurangan dan jangkaan hidup yang bertambah. Lebih ramai penduduk yang akan mencapai umur tua dan sebahagian besar akan mengalami masalah penyakit kronik dan degeneratif seperti kanser, strok, athritis, katarak, dementia dsb (Osman Ali 1995f, Khatijah & Osman Ali 1997).
