The document summarizes key aspects of the fetal skull, including its bones, sutures, and fontanelles. The fetal skull is dome-shaped and composed of bones that fuse together over time. It has several soft spots called fontanelles that allow the skull to change shape during birth. The largest fontanelle is the anterior fontanelle, located at the junction of the frontal and parietal bones, which usually closes between 12-18 months. Premature fusion of skull bones can cause craniosynostosis disorders that deform the skull.

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!

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

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
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

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.
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.

3. Introduction
• At birth, the calvaria is large in proportion to
other skeletal parts, reflecting cerebral
maturation.
• The facial region is relatively small and
constitutes only about one-eighth of the
neonatal skull, whereas it constitutes about
half of the adult skull.
6. Fetal Skull
• Skull bones encase
and protect the
brain
• Major 3 Parts
Vault
Face
Base
7. Bones of the Vault
2 Frontal Bones
2 Parietal Bones
1 Occipital Bones
2 Temporal Bones
8. Vault
• Large, dome shaped part above an imaginary
line drawn between the orbital ridges and
nape of the neck
• Base
Base comprises bones that firmly united to
protect the vital centers in the medula
oblangata
Face
Comprises of 14 bones that are firmly united and are
non-compressible
9. 2 Frontal Bones
• Form the forehead or
Sinciput
• The ossification center
of each bone is frontal
eminence
• Fuse into single bone by
8 years of age.
10. 2-Parietal Bones
• Lie on either side
and occupy most
of the skull
• Parietal
eminence(Ossificat
ion Centre)
13. Fontaneles
• The fibrous membrane that
forms the calvaria remains
unossified at the six angles of
the parietal bones, producing
six fontanelles:
• Two single midline (anterior
and posterior) and
• Two lateral pairs
(sphenoidal/anterolateral and
mastoid/posterolateral).
15. Anterior Fontanelle
• Largest and Rhomboid
• 4 cm AP
• 2.5 Transverse
• Formed between Sagittal,
Transverse and Frontal
Suture
• Closes at 12-18 months.
16. Clinical
• Palpation of fontanelle
is useful clinically.
• Sunken fontanelle
indicates dehydration
• Tense or bulging
anterior fontanelle
indicates
raised intracranial
pressure. E.g
Meningitis ,
Hydrocephalus
18. Anteriolateral Fontanelle
• Sphenoidal Fontanelle
• Lies at sphenoidal angle
of Parietal Bone between
the sphenoid, parietal,
temporal, and frontal
bones
• Fuses at 6 Months
19. Posteriolateral Fontanelle
• Mastoid Fontanelle
• Bilateral soft
membranous gaps at the
junction of
the parietomastoid, occi
pitomastoid,
and lambdoid sutures
• Fuse at 6-18 months
• Persists as Asterion
21. Metopic Suture
• Also known as median
frontal suture
• Vertical fibrous joint that
divides the two halves of the
frontal bone runs cross the
frontal bone from
the nasion to the bregma.
• Fusion 3-9 months
23. Coronal Suture
• Cranial suture formed
between the two parietal
bones and the frontal
bone.
• Junction of the Anterior
Fontanelle
• Fuses at 24 years of age
24. Oxycephaly
• Craniosynostosis in which
top of the skull is pointed or
conical due to premature
closure of the coronal
suture.
• Most severe form of
craniosynostosis.
• Characterised by
• 8th cranial nerve lesion
• Optic nerve compression
• Mental deficiency
25. Plagiocephaly
• Flat Head Syndrome
• Asymmetric premature
closure of the coronal
suture/lambdoid suture.
• Widespread form is
characterized by a flat
spot on the back or one
side of the head caused
by remaining in a supine
position for prolonged
periods
26. Sagittal Suture
• Midline articulation that
joins the two parietal
bones
• Normal fusion at 22
years.
27. Scaphocephaly
• Most common form
of craniosynostosis
• Premature closure of
the sagittal suture
• Results in an impediment
to the lateral growth of
the skull while
anteroposterior growth
continues, producing a
narrow and elongated
skull.
28. Squamosal Sutures
• Arches backward from
the pterion and connects
the temporal squama
with the lower border of
the parietal bone
• May not completely
close until 60 years of
age.
29. Lambdoid Suture
• Junction between the
superior border of
the occipital bone and the
posterior borders of the
right and left parietal bones
• Fuses at approximately 26
years
30. Sphenofrontal Suture
• Between Frontal and Sphenoid Bone
• Anteriorly suture appears on the roof of the
bony orbit.
• Laterally as meeting point of inferior posterior
edges of frontal bone and anterior, superior
edge of the greater wing of the sphenoid bone
• Fuses at 15 years of age.
