Colorectal cancer is the fourth most common cancer in the U.S. What are some of the common signs and symptoms? And how often -- and how -- should you be screened?
Transforming Assessment in a Digital Era
Technology context, next generations students, interactions, learning-oriented assessment, new mindsets
The digital futures learning environment provides opportunities to improve the student learning experience through flexibility in time, pace, place, mode of study, teaching approach and forms of assessment.
• Assessment for a digital future needs to place learning at the centre of assessment and reconfigure assessment design so that the learning function is emphasized
• Learning-oriented assessment needs to include: assessment tasks as learning tasks, student involvement in the assessment processes and forward-looking feedback.
• Formative assessment in a digital future incorporates feedback as feed-forward so that students receive feedback that can be acted on to improve learning.

Critical pedagogy: education in the practice of freedomAlan Carbery
Slides from a talk at the Vermont Library Association College & Special Libraries Conference, October 2015. Abstract: Our presentation focuses on the use of primary sources in library instruction to inspire students to think around issues of injustice and oppression. Following remarks on our chapter-in-progress for a book on Critical Library Instruction, the session will be devoted to introducing/discussing Critical Pedagogy and its influence on library instruction. Because Critical Pedagogy is dependent upon decentering the lecturer in favor of a participatory and community-driven style of learning, we hope this session can act as a forum for our colleagues to share ways in which they’ve incorporated facets of Critical Pedagogy into their instructional practice, ask questions about Critical Library Instruction, and offer any critiques they have of Critical Pedagogy/Critical Library Instruction. Delivered with Sean Leahy, Instruction & Learning Assessment Librarian, Champlain College.

How do we see the healthcare's digital future and its impact on our lives?Jane Vita
"Healthcare is undergoing major changes spurred on by, but not limited to, technology.
Digitalisation is changing the way we think about health, what taking care of it really entails, our personal role in healthcare systems and the way we interact with technology in the context of health.
In many ways, we are entering a post-institutional age of increased personal responsibility, which presents healthcare service providers and other players in the field with major opportunities and great risks. Technology has the potential to empower people and help them become more active in the management of their and their families’ health. This will change the relationship of the patient and the caregiver in profound ways." Mirkka Länsisalo

Meniere’s Disease – An Overview of the Disease and Its Homeopathic Management.Welcome Cure LLP
Meniere’s disease is a common disorder of inner ear that affects hearing and balance of an individual marked by dizziness, ringing in the ears & hearing loss. It is one of the most common causes of vertigo, affecting approximately 0.2 – 4 % of the world population. It doesn’t affect an individual only physically; but even shows its impact on his job, relationships, and social activities. Homeopathy works wonderfully in Meniere’s disease by alleviating the symptoms and eradicating the disease permanently.

ABDOMINAL TRAUMA in pediatrics part one.drhasanrajab
Abdominal trauma in pediatrics refers to injuries or damage to the abdominal organs in children. It can occur due to various causes such as falls, motor vehicle accidents, sports-related injuries, and physical abuse. Children are more vulnerable to abdominal trauma due to their unique anatomical and physiological characteristics. Signs and symptoms include abdominal pain, tenderness, distension, vomiting, and signs of shock. Diagnosis involves physical examination, imaging studies, and laboratory tests. Management depends on the severity and may involve conservative treatment or surgical intervention. Prevention is crucial in reducing the incidence of abdominal trauma in children.

Local Advanced Lung Cancer: Artificial Intelligence, Synergetics, Complex Sys...Oleg Kshivets
Overall life span (LS) was 1671.7±1721.6 days and cumulative 5YS reached 62.4%, 10 years – 50.4%, 20 years – 44.6%. 94 LCP lived more than 5 years without cancer (LS=2958.6±1723.6 days), 22 – more than 10 years (LS=5571±1841.8 days). 67 LCP died because of LC (LS=471.9±344 days). AT significantly improved 5YS (68% vs. 53.7%) (P=0.028 by log-rank test). Cox modeling displayed that 5YS of LCP significantly depended on: N0-N12, T3-4, blood cell circuit, cell ratio factors (ratio between cancer cells-CC and blood cells subpopulations), LC cell dynamics, recalcification time, heparin tolerance, prothrombin index, protein, AT, procedure type (P=0.000-0.031). Neural networks, genetic algorithm selection and bootstrap simulation revealed relationships between 5YS and N0-12 (rank=1), thrombocytes/CC (rank=2), segmented neutrophils/CC (3), eosinophils/CC (4), erythrocytes/CC (5), healthy cells/CC (6), lymphocytes/CC (7), stick neutrophils/CC (8), leucocytes/CC (9), monocytes/CC (10). Correct prediction of 5YS was 100% by neural networks computing (error=0.000; area under ROC curve=1.0).

Title: Sense of Smell
Presenter: Dr. Faiza, Assistant Professor of Physiology
Qualifications:
MBBS (Best Graduate, AIMC Lahore)
FCPS Physiology
ICMT, CHPE, DHPE (STMU)
MPH (GC University, Faisalabad)
MBA (Virtual University of Pakistan)
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.
Medially: Folds downward along the superior septum.
Laterally: Folds over the superior turbinate and upper surface of the middle turbinate.
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.
Action potential frequency in the olfactory nerve increases with odorant strength.
Adaptation Towards the Sense of Smell:
Rapid adaptation within the first second, with further slow adaptation.
Psychological adaptation greater than receptor adaptation, involving feedback inhibition from the central nervous system.
Primary Sensations of Smell:
Camphoraceous, Musky, Floral, Pepperminty, Ethereal, Pungent, Putrid.
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

8. • Spit tobacco Spit tobacco, also known as smokeless tobacco,
• is tobacco that is placed inside the mouth. It is sold as:
• • Chew – This is a leafy form of tobacco sold in pouches. A person
keeps the chew between the cheek and gums for several hours at a
time. It is also known as ‘a wad’.
• • Plug – This is chew tobacco that has been pressed into a hard
block and placed between the cheek and gum.
• • Snuff – This is ground-up moist tobacco sold in cans. It is usually
placed between the bottom lip and gum. It is also known as
‘dipping’.
• Spit tobacco can be as addictive as smoking cigarettes. A person
who uses 8 to 10 dips or chews a day gets the same amount of
nico ne as a person who smokes 30 to 40 cigare es a day. Spit
tobacco is flavoured with licorice, mint or cherry and sweetened
with sugar. However, spit tobacco has over 3000 chemicals
including 28 known cancer-causing chemicals, such as
formaldehyde and cadmium.
• Cancers of the mouth can develop within five years of regular
tobacco product use. Only 56 per cent of people with mouth or
throat cancer live more than five years after the time of diagnosis.

9. • People who smoke cigars and pipes face a higher risk of
cancers of the mouth, throat, oesophagus, as well as lung
cancer.
• Bidis Bidis, or beadies, are thin cigarettes of tobacco
• wrapped in leaves and tied with colourful strings. Bidis are
popular with youth because they are cheaper than regular
cigarettes and are sold in a variety of candy-like flavours such
as chocolate, cherry and mango. Because bidis are wrapped in
a leaf rather than paper, youth may believe they are a safe,
"natural" option to cigarettes.
• While bidis have less tobacco than regular cigarettes, they are
unfiltered and can have higher levels of nicotine, tar and
carbon monoxide. Bidis do not stay lit easily, so people who
smoke them need to puff harder and inhale deeper into their
lungs to keep them lit.
• People who smoke bidis are at higher risk of heart disease
and cancers of the mouth, lung, stomach and throat. They are
also four times more likely to suffer from chronic lung
infections.
Tobacco Prevention Series - Number 30d August 2005 www.bchealthguide.org
10. • Kreteks Kreteks are Indonesian cigarettes made up
of tobacco, ground cloves and other additives. Teens
believe that Kreteks are safer than regular cigarettes
because they are often marketed as “natural
tobacco”. This is misleading because “natural
tobacco” can be as dangerous as regular cigarettes.
• Kreteks have the same health risks as regular
cigarettes, but they have more nicotine, tar and
carbon monoxide. People who smoke Kreteks are at
higher risk of acute lung injury and have up to 20
times the risk of problems with lung function.
