In order to make exercise program design more effective, “fitness” can be broken down into various components to help better understand how the body works and how we can use exercise to improve our overall health and performance. Depending on what a person would like to accomplish, these components have been divided into “health-related” and “skill-related” components.
Historical background AND DEVELOPMENT OF PHYSICAL EDUCATION
Primitive society
primitive man moved in order to satisfy a felt need or a necessity. He had to satisfy his hunger and so he had to search for food by hunting wild animals in the forests or by fishing along the rivers and streams.
the physical activities of primitive man were not organized. His motives for physical activity were mainly to search for food and to protect himself from his enemies.
Ancient oriental and Near East Countries
Ancient China
India
Ancient Egypt, Assyria, Babylonia,Syria, Palestine, and Persia
Ancient China
This policy of isolation lacked the motivating factor to be physically strong because there was no fear of aggression.
they neglected their physical body to something they believed was more important and which is the spirit. As early as 2698 B.C., the “Kung-Fu” was the earliest of exercises recorded in history.
India
like that of ancient China, the religious life of the people affected their concern for their physical well-being.
a great contribution of India to physical education is “Yoga” which composed of exercises in posture and regulated breathing. Although Yoga is a religious activity in India, it is being accepted today as important activity to discipline the mind and the body because it involves 84 different positions.
Ancient Egypt, Assyria, Babylonia, Syria, Palestine, and Persia
these country marked the turning point in the history of physical education in the ancient near east.
the Egyptians believed in living a full life.
this meant a life full of physical activity. The Egyptian young boys were instructed in the use of weapons of war, such as the bow and arrow, lance, and shield.
they engaged in many sports and gymnastics exercise.

Physical Education in Greece
The two city states in ancient Greece which gave much importance to ancient Greece, were the Sparta and Athens.
in Sparta, the main objective of physical education was contribute to a strong and powerful army.
While in Athens, the individual’s life was not controlled and regulated as in Sparta, and one enjoyed individual freedom.
The objective of physical education was for physical perfection with emphasis on beauty of physique.
Greece laid the foundation for the present Olympic games which were first held in 776 B.C. and continued every four years thereafter. A number of Greek philosophers, teachers, and medical men contributed to the worth of physical education and among them were the following:

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
Ethanol (CH3CH2OH), or beverage alcohol, is a two-carbon alcohol
that is rapidly distributed in the body and brain. Ethanol alters many
neurochemical systems and has rewarding and addictive properties. It
is the oldest recreational drug and likely contributes to more morbidity,
mortality, and public health costs than all illicit drugs combined. The
5th edition of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders
(DSM-5) integrates alcohol abuse and alcohol dependence into a single
disorder called alcohol use disorder (AUD), with mild, moderate,
and severe subclassifications (American Psychiatric Association, 2013).
In the DSM-5, all types of substance abuse and dependence have been
combined into a single substance use disorder (SUD) on a continuum
from mild to severe. A diagnosis of AUD requires that at least two of
the 11 DSM-5 behaviors be present within a 12-month period (mild
AUD: 2–3 criteria; moderate AUD: 4–5 criteria; severe AUD: 6–11 criteria).
The four main behavioral effects of AUD are impaired control over
drinking, negative social consequences, risky use, and altered physiological
effects (tolerance, withdrawal). This chapter presents an overview
of the prevalence and harmful consequences of AUD in the U.S.,
the systemic nature of the disease, neurocircuitry and stages of AUD,
comorbidities, fetal alcohol spectrum disorders, genetic risk factors, and
pharmacotherapies for AUD.

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

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.

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.

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
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.

2. During this presentation I will be covering how
Physical fitness has evolved all the way back
from 10,00bc to the present now. Physical fitness
has been around from the beginning of time and
and throughout generations we have seen many
changes in physical activity. This presentation
will give you good insight to the Evolution of
Physical Fitness. Enjoy!
3. Even before physical fitness would ever have
thought to be a profession it was a part of
everyday life in the beginning of time
Primitive ages pre–10,00BC
•
•
Tribes would travel up to 20miles to hunt for food
with other tribes
At the end of long hunts they would dance, and
play games that lasted for hours this was
considered their physical activity.
4. Neolithic Agriculture
Revolution
Time Period 10,000-8,800BC
Also know as the period of civilization
Because this was the period for the invention of
agriculture equipment, people were physically
active while maintaining farms and using manual
labor machines.
This also however was a period that led to more
sedentary lifestyles because there were not as
many hardships. Life became somewhat more
convenient.
5. The Near East
Time period 4,000-250BC
Physical activity importance realized within
leading civilizations such as
Assyria, Babylonia, Egypt, Palestine, Persia, and
Syria.
Emphasized strong physical fitness regimes for
military personnel to develop strong forces.
Some say Physical Fitness can partially
contribute to the Rise and Fall of the Persian
empire.
6. Ancient Greek Civilization
Time Period 2,500-250BC
Ancient Greeks held Physical fitness to the
highest regard.
Not only was physical fitness important but as
well mind body health was also extremely
important.
Some of you may know about the Spartan army
which is said to be one of the most physically
dominated societies in mankind.
7. Roman Civilazation
Time Period 500BC-476AD
Romans mandated all civilians be in good
physical health and be able to report for military
duty.
Activities including
marching, running, jumping, javelin and discus
throw.
The Result of having mandated physical fitness
resulted in an empire who conquered early all of
western world
However, as material wealth became more a
priority physical fitness lost its
8. The Dark Ages
Time Period 476-1000AD
After the fall of the roman empire and despite the
intellectual and cultural setbacks, physical fitness
made a come back in this time.
People were again out hunting their own food
much like the primitive ages which led to a more
physically fit society.
9. The Renaissance.
Time period: 1400-1600AD
This was known as a turning point for physical
fitness
Two gentleman worthy of attention John Locke
and Martin Luther supported the theory that “
high fitness levels enhanced intellectual
learning.”
The renaissance created a conditions to ready a
world for the widespread development of
physical education through Europe.
11. National period in Europe.
Time period: 1700-1850AD
Following the Renaissance came numerous changes
throughout Europe physical fitness and education of fitness
began to expand.
Gymnastics gained immense popularity in
Germany, Denmark and Sweden.
A gentleman by the name of Archibald Macleran
Developed Great Britain's National Systems of Bodily
Exercise and Training in theory and practice. Interestingly
enough some of Archibald's ideas were similar to presentday exercise recommendations such as physical activity
reduces levels of stress.
12. American Colonial Period
Time Period: 1700-1776AD
The early settlers faced a lot of hardships in
colonial life, therefore engaging in physical
activity was a must in order to survive.
Colonial America was an undeveloped
country, The people of the land spent all their
time and energy into plowing fields for crops and
herding cattle, because of this physically
demanding life, there was no need for organized
exercise programs.
13. Americas National Period
Time Period: 1776-1860AD
Physical fitness and physical education had little
emphasis placed on it during this time period.
Although not heavily emphasized. Physical
fitness was still appreciated. One of the
greats, Benjamin Franklin recommended “regular
physical activity- including resistance training- for
health benefits.”
14. Post Civil War
Time Period: 1865-1900
This is an an important time in physical fitness
history, because of the industrial revolution.
Machines began to take away labor jobs, rural
life turned to city life which resulted in less
movement and more sedentary lifestyles. By the
1950s cancer and diabetes increasingly became
more widespread.
However. Not all bad, this period also launched
the first scientific studies on fitness instruction
and created organized fitness teaching methods.
15. th
20
Century America
WWI. 1 of 3 draftees for war were unfit for war.
The Roaring 20’s. Eating, Drinking, Partying Were the
main focus fitness levels continued to decline.
WWII. Still draftees rejected for poor physical levels.
Dr. Thomas k. Cureton introduced Fitness testing for
cardio, muscular strength and flexibility, also identified
exercise intensity guidelines for improving fitness
levels
Cold war early years. 60 percent of American children
fail muscular strength and flexibility test. Compared to
only 9 percent in Europe. Several organizations are
introduced; American health Association; The
American Medical Association
16. Last Slide!
In 1954 The American College of Sports
Medicine was formed. It Is known throughout
history that ACSM is known for scientific
research on various exercise related issues.
In the 1960’s A major presidential campaign was
launched by President John F. Kennedy who
supported physical activity and it health benefits
for Americans of all ages.
17. YOU MADE IT!
I hope you enjoyed this little trip through history
and learned something you didn’t know. As you
can see from the beginning Physical fitness has
always played a role in our lives, and will most
likely always be an issue with its ups and downs
here in America. We must remember to not get
too involved with the materialistic things in life
and too make time to have a healthy YOU it is
something you have complete control over.
Thanks for taking the time to view my
presentation!
