Nutrients are components of food that are needed for the body to function
Dr. Patrick Garrett is a chiropractor and clinical nutritionist who specializes in using lifestyle and dietary changes to reverse chronic health conditions. He believes that food can have a significant impact on mood, citing studies that have found many people with depression to be deficient in vitamins, minerals, omega-3 fatty acids and other nutrients found in whole foods like fruits, vegetables, nuts and seeds. Specific mood-boosting foods he recommends include cashews, citrus fruits, dark leafy greens, fatty fish and foods containing zinc, magnesium and B vitamins. His message is that making healthy dietary choices focused on nutrient-dense, whole foods can help improve mood and mental wellbeing.
The document discusses 10 superfoods worth adding to any diet:
1) Green vegetables like kale and spinach which are high in nutrients and can reduce chronic disease risk.
2) Berries like blueberries which contain antioxidants and can reduce heart disease and cancer risk.
3) Eggs which contain protein, vitamins, and eye-healthy nutrients despite cholesterol concerns.
4) Vegetables like beans which provide vitamins, minerals, protein and fiber and can aid diabetes and heart health.
The document provides dietary recommendations for managing diabetes type 2, including eating adequate vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, fiber and healthy fats from whole foods; balancing blood sugar by not skipping meals, including protein, fats and fiber at meals, and supplementing certain nutrients; including healthy sources of carbohydrates, protein and fats at meals; and drinking enough water. The CDC statistics show that diabetes is at epidemic levels in the US due to diets high in refined grains and low in fat.

Cell Therapy Expansion and Challenges in Autoimmune DiseaseHealth Advances
There is increasing confidence that cell therapies will soon play a role in the treatment of autoimmune disorders, but the extent of this impact remains to be seen. Early readouts on autologous CAR-Ts in lupus are encouraging, but manufacturing and cost limitations are likely to restrict access to highly refractory patients. Allogeneic CAR-Ts have the potential to broaden access to earlier lines of treatment due to their inherent cost benefits, however they will need to demonstrate comparable or improved efficacy to established modalities.
In addition to infrastructure and capacity constraints, CAR-Ts face a very different risk-benefit dynamic in autoimmune compared to oncology, highlighting the need for tolerable therapies with low adverse event risk. CAR-NK and Treg-based therapies are also being developed in certain autoimmune disorders and may demonstrate favorable safety profiles. Several novel non-cell therapies such as bispecific antibodies, nanobodies, and RNAi drugs, may also offer future alternative competitive solutions with variable value propositions.
Widespread adoption of cell therapies will not only require strong efficacy and safety data, but also adapted pricing and access strategies. At oncology-based price points, CAR-Ts are unlikely to achieve broad market access in autoimmune disorders, with eligible patient populations that are potentially orders of magnitude greater than the number of currently addressable cancer patients. Developers have made strides towards reducing cell therapy COGS while improving manufacturing efficiency, but payors will inevitably restrict access until more sustainable pricing is achieved.
Despite these headwinds, industry leaders and investors remain confident that cell therapies are poised to address significant unmet need in patients suffering from autoimmune disorders. However, the extent of this impact on the treatment landscape remains to be seen, as the industry rapidly approaches an inflection point.

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).

These lecture slides, by Dr Sidra Arshad, offer a quick overview of the physiological basis of a normal electrocardiogram.
Learning objectives:
1. Define an electrocardiogram (ECG) and electrocardiography
2. Describe how dipoles generated by the heart produce the waveforms of the ECG
3. Describe the components of a normal electrocardiogram of a typical bipolar lead (limb II)
4. Differentiate between intervals and segments
5. Enlist some common indications for obtaining an ECG
6. Describe the flow of current around the heart during the cardiac cycle
7. Discuss the placement and polarity of the leads of electrocardiograph
8. Describe the normal electrocardiograms recorded from the limb leads and explain the physiological basis of the different records that are obtained
9. Define mean electrical vector (axis) of the heart and give the normal range
10. Define the mean QRS vector
11. Describe the axes of leads (hexagonal reference system)
12. Comprehend the vectorial analysis of the normal ECG
13. Determine the mean electrical axis of the ventricular QRS and appreciate the mean axis deviation

2. Mint is the name for over a dozen plant species, including peppermint and
spearmint, that belong to the genus Mentha.
These plants are particularly known for the cooling sensation they impart. They
can be added to foods in both fresh and dried forms.
3. This article takes a closer look at eight science-based health
benefits of mint.
1. Rich in Nutrients
While not typically consumed in
large quantities, mint does contain
a fair amount of nutrients.
In fact, just under 1/3 cup or half
an ounce (14 grams) of spearmint
contains :
•Calories: 6
•Fiber: 1 gram
•Vitamin A: 12% of the RDI
•Iron: 9% of the RDI
•Manganese: 8% of the RDI
•Folate: 4% of the RDI
4. 2. May Improve Irritable Bowel Syndrome
Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) is a common digestive tract
disorder. It is characterized by digestive symptoms like stomach
pain, gas, bloating and changes in bowel habits.
3. May Help Relieve Indigestion
Mint may also be effective at relieving other digestive
problems such as upset stomach and indigestion.
Indigestion may occur when food sits in the stomach
for too long before passing into the rest of the digestive
tract.
