Florence Nightingale was born in 1820 in Italy to wealthy parents and received an advanced education despite norms of the time favoring men's education. She felt called to nursing at age 17 despite her family's objections. After training, she volunteered in the Crimean War, finding barrack hospitals unsanitary. Through organizing nurses and employing sanitation practices, she reduced death rates dramatically, becoming known as the "Lady with the Lamp." After the war, she advanced nursing standards through the first nursing textbook and curriculum, establishing it as a respected profession.

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

Anti ulcer drugs and their Advance pharmacology ||
Anti-ulcer drugs are medications used to prevent and treat ulcers in the stomach and upper part of the small intestine (duodenal ulcers). These ulcers are often caused by an imbalance between stomach acid and the mucosal lining, which protects the stomach lining.
||Scope: Overview of various classes of anti-ulcer drugs, their mechanisms of action, indications, side effects, and clinical considerations.
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
3. As a child, Florence was very close to her father. Because he had no sons, he became very close to her and took responsibility for her education. She was taught by her father and learned Greek, Latin, Italian, German, mathematics, and philosophy.
4. At the age of 17, Florence felt a calling to become a nurse. Her parents were very opposed to this idea because nursing at that time was associated with working class women. At the age of 31, after much insistence, Florence’s father gave her permission to train as a nurse and she left for Kaiserwerth, Germany to begin her training.
5. In 1853 she became superintendent of the Institution for Sick Gentlewomen in Distressed Circumstances in London. This opportunity allowed her to become independent from her family and also to try out new ideas in organizing and managing an institution.
6. In 1851, the Crimean War began when Russia invaded Turkey. Britain and France came to Turkey’s aid. Soon after British soldiers arrived in Turkey, they began to contract cholera and malaria. Within two weeks, over 8,000 soldiers suffered from these two diseases. Nightingale volunteered her nursing services and organized a group of 38 nurses to go to Turkey.
7. Nightingale found the conditions at the barrack hospitals appalling. Soldiers were found in rooms with no blankets and no decent food. Some were still dressed in their uniforms that were bloody and dirty.
8. Military officers denied Nightingale’s attempts to reorganize the barrack hospitals until she used a contact at The Times newspaper to report how unfairly the British military was treating its soldiers. She was eventually granted permission to reorganize the hospital.
9. Nightingale and the other nurses applied the science of the 19th century to improve the conditions at the hospital. She believed cleanliness and fresh air were the first lines of defense against infection. Because of their efforts, death rates among the soldiers dropped dramatically.
10. Nightingale became known as the “lady with the lamp” as she worked tirelessly to help the wounded soldiers. One wounded soldier said of her “She would speak to one and nod and smile to as many more, but she could not do it to all you know. We lay there in our hundreds, but we could kiss her shadow as it fell.”
11. Nightingale returned from the war a heroine. However, much of her work to advance the nursing profession occurred within the last 40 years of her life. She wrote the first nursing “textbook” entitled Notes on Nursing in 1859 and developed the first nursing school curriculum for St. Thomas’s Hospital in London.
12. Nightingale’s ambitious attitude helped her to fight hard to obtain a leadership position in a world dominated by men. Her efforts during the war helped prove the importance of well-trained nurses on patient outcomes and her work after the war helped mold and shape the future of the nursing profession.
13.
14. Nurses must be well-trained on many different areas of science, math, and medicine.
15. Nursing is now a field that is wide open for both women and men.
