Let's Talk About It: Ovarian Cancer - Cultivating Resiliencebkling
Resilience is the ability to recover and adapt in the face of stress. Resilience is also a term that refers to a number of skills and characteristics that contribute to our ability to face hardship. Together we can work to name and strengthen the qualities that not only resonate but that you are discovering within yourself as you navigate cancer survivorship.
Top five skills which everyone should have in their emotional toolbox are
1.Resilience
2.Creativity
3.Assertiveness
4.Mental Flexibility
5.Self Awareness
Living with uncertainty is one of the harshest realities of a cancer diagnosis. Waiting for scan results or feeling the fear of recurrence are examples of common challenges survivors find difficult to navigate. While it may be unrealistic to think the feeling of uncertainty will completely go away, we discuss strategies to tame the anxiety and find your footing one day at a time. Let’s talk about it!

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

These practices help prevent injuries, improve posture, and maintain mobilit
Acute scrotum is a general term referring to an emergency condition affecting the contents or the wall of the scrotum.
There are a number of conditions that present acutely, predominantly with pain and/or swelling
A careful and detailed history and examination, and in some cases, investigations allow differentiation between these diagnoses. A prompt diagnosis is essential as the patient may require urgent surgical intervention
Testicular torsion refers to twisting of the spermatic cord, causing ischaemia of the testicle.
Testicular torsion results from inadequate fixation of the testis to the tunica vaginalis producing ischemia from reduced arterial inflow and venous outflow obstruction.
The prevalence of testicular torsion in adult patients hospitalized with acute scrotal pain is approximately 25 to 50 percent

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!

Financially, housing, decision-making
Developing long term relationships
Setting professional goals & aspirations
Defining identity, body image, values, priorities
Acknowledging needs & impulses
Maximizing strengths and negotiating weaknesses
6. EMOTIONAL NEEDS OF AYA SURVIVORS
Loss of control
Loss of independence
Loss of normalcy
Loss of feeling of invincibility
Negative impact on career
Stress of family planning decisions and/or losses
Strain on relationships
Isolation/loneliness is a major issue for most AYAs
due to timing of diagnosis and cancer’s impact on
relationships with peers, co-workers, spouses and
other family members
7. PSYCHOLOGICAL ISSUES FOR AYAS
DIAGNOSED WITH CANCER:
Demands of illness
• Isolation
• Vulnerability
• Dependence
• Uncertainty
Demands of life cycle
• Intimacy
• Invulnerability
• Independence
• Control
8. CANCER SURVIVORSHIP:
THE FOCUS IS YOU!
Identify healthy coping and craft ways continued
use of these tools
Challenge oneself to embrace new ways of caring
for self. Remain interested in the process.
9. WHAT IS RESILIENCE?
MYTH: Resilience is a genetic trait. You either
have it or you don’t.
We are all born with innate resiliency. An inborn
capacity for “self-righting”.
Resilience is found in a variety of thought
processes and behaviors that can be learned
throughout a lifetime.
Resilience develops as people grow
and develop better thinking,
self-management skills and knowledge.
10. WHY DOES RESILIENCY MATTER?
Resilient people often find meaning even in times of
trouble and gain confidence from overcoming
adversity. In this way, resilience can contribute to a
deeply satisfying life.
Resiliency and Happiness are closely linked
Happiness involves feeling more positive emotions
than negative emotions.
Positive emotions help us build skills and internal
resources…a larger repertoire of assets that we
can draw on in stressful times.
In other words, “Happy people become more
satisfied not simply because they feel better, but
because they develop resources for living well.”
Bauer&Bonanno
11. PERSONAL GROWTH – RESILIENCY!
Most people who experience a major life crisis or
event experience feelings of grief, anxiety, anger,
and other negative emotions.
Growth comes not from the avoidance of these
negative emotions but rather from the struggle to
cope with them. Positive
Feelings
Frame of mind
to explore the
world
Build skills & internal
resources
(manifestation of
Resilience)
Find meaning,
fulfillment and
satisfaction
Gain
confidence
12. BUT AM I RESILIENT?
Of course you are!
But…What is your personal “brand” of resiliency?
Can you articulate how you’ve made it this far?
What habits or qualities would you like to cultivate
within yourself as you move forward in your
survivorship?
13. Make a list of different ways you care for yourself
Consider your five senses
How do you care for yourself at:
Work?
Home?
When you are out socially?
In the middle of the night?
If being with people is
part of your list, what
are you doing together?
YOUR “PERSONAL BRAND” OF RESILIENCE
14. THE WORK OF BEING AT WORK:
Realize when you are stressed. Why?
What are those triggers?
Certain people?
External Events?
Begin to learn your “Warning Signs”:
The build up to an emotional moment.
Know your people!
Who is good for you?
Who is challenging?
Self Care: The Emotional Ramp Up
15. GRIEVING
Experience the pain of grief
Commemorate the loss: An acceptable way of
honoring what has been lost
Letting go or finding where the loss lives within
Moving forward
Grief Counseling can help by sharing the weight of
the emotions and providing a secure base
The loss of a child (real or
fantasized) is a brutal shock and
feels like an assault on self-worth.
16.
17. THE ANGER SADNESS ALLIANCE
SADNESS:
Sadness is vulnerable.
Sadness accepts the situation for what it is.
What helps you feel safe enough to be really sad?
Pay very close attention to what makes you stop crying?
Why does THAT matter?
ANGER:
Anger is active energy.
Anger gets you fired up and ready to defend yourself, jump
into action!
Anger rallies you to do something to change the situation.
What can you do with that energy?
Do you know your triggers?
Mindfully
consider: Which
emotion tends
to be your
default?
18. CONTINUING THE… FOCUS ON YOU.
Identify healthy coping and craft ways continued
use of these tools
Challenge oneself to embrace new ways of caring
for self. Remain interested in the process.
Recognize and minimize negative self talk
19. “Before we can expect to consciously direct our life, we
need to be able to consciously direct our attention.”
THE VOICE INSIDE YOUR HEAD
Remember The Voice is well intentioned.
The Voice has been doing its best to keep you safe and happy.
Unfortunately, The Voice is operating on outdated guidelines
The Voice keeps us from experiencing the present moment
MASTERING ATTENTION & “THE VOICE”
INSIDE YOUR HEAD
20. All or Nothing Thinking:
You think of things in “black or white”, “right or wrong”,
“perfect or terrible” categories.
Over Generalizing:
You think of a single negative event as a never-ending
pattern
Magnifying or Minimizing:
You exaggerate the importance of certain things (e.g.
your mistakes or other’s successes) and minimize
other things (e.g. your own desirable qualities or
other’s imperfections).
Shoulds – Musts - Oughts:
You believe you must live up to excessively high
standards, & may also have excessively high
expectations of others. You believe you should have
known/done better, even when that would have been
impossible.
Mind Reading:
You arbitrarily conclude that someone is reacting
negatively to you, & don’t check this out with them.
Fortune Telling:
You anticipate that things will turn out badly, and feel
convinced that your prediction is a fact.
Catastrophizing:
You believe the worst-case scenario will definitely
happen
Personalization:
You see yourself as responsible for events around you
that had little/no responsibility for.
The Danger of Automatic Thoughts
21. AND STILL MORE…THE FOCUS ON YOU.
Identify healthy coping and craft ways continued
use of these tools
Challenge oneself to embrace new ways of caring
for self. Remain interested in the process.
Recognize and minimize negative self talk
Thoughtfully support AYAs development of sincere
self affirmations
Identify areas where you can feel control by
compartmentalizing issues and breaking down time
into manageable chunks.
22. Affirmations are healing, positive messages you
give to yourself to counter your negative self-talk.
Three Types of Affirmations:
“I am…” (A statement about you)
“I can…” (A statement of your potential)
“I will…” (A statement of change in your life)
CONVERSATIONS WITH YOURSELF!
“The real tragedy of life is not that each of
us doesn’t have enough strengths,
its that we fail to use the ones we have” –

24. Remember your feelings about your cancer
experience will likely change day to day.
Do the work and learn how to care for yourself.
Try not to ignore your need to share your worries,
fears and questions.
Often talking with others helps you work through
concerns or uncertainties in a natural way.
Listen to yourself. Come to understand what you
are feeling, thinking and needing.
Try not to put on a “happy face” if you are not
feeling that way. Your true feelings are more helpful
to everyone.
“BE GENTLE WITH YOURSELF”
