Checkups and tests you need now to make life betterDr Kamaljit Singh
Getting a checkup is a way of making sure everything is OK. Some people see their doctor every year for a physical. But there's some debate about whether an annual exam is helpful or needed. How often you should have a checkup depends on many things, including your age, general health, and whether you have risk factors for certain problems. At a routine checkup, your doctor will ask you questions about your health and lifestyle. She'll listen to your heart and lungs. She'll also likely measure your weight and vital signs like blood pressure and temperature.

Male infertility is implicated in approximately half of couples who cannot conceive after a year of unprotected sex. Some medical causes of male infertility include varicocele, infections that damage the reproductive organs, issues with ejaculation, antibodies that attack sperm, and tumors affecting the reproductive system. A doctor will examine the patient and their medical history, conduct a semen analysis, and may recommend procedures to address physical causes of infertility. Varicocele repair is a common outpatient procedure that can often fix male infertility issues.

This document discusses the relationship between obesity and hypertension. It defines obesity using body mass index (BMI) and notes that over 1 billion adults worldwide are overweight. Obesity is linked to increased risk of hypertension, as excess weight causes elevations in cardiac output and systemic vascular resistance over time. Weight loss through diet and exercise can significantly lower blood pressure in hypertensive patients by an average of 6.3/3.4 mmHg. Resistance training may also help reduce blood pressure when performed at a moderate intensity. Stress management techniques like meditation and yoga have also shown limited efficacy in lowering blood pressure.
Becky Bujaki calculated her annual vegetable, grain, protein, and fruit needs. She determined she would need 27 100 square foot garden beds to meet her needs, requiring about 0.6 acres. While single and having to do most chores alone present challenges, she is committed to transitioning from consumer to producer through small-scale gardening and eventually farming on 3-5 acres after retiring from the military. Following permaculture principles, she will progress slowly, learning from mistakes, and sharing her harvests to educate others.

The document discusses the author mapping their property in Google Earth and Maps to analyze water flow and potential for water collection and reuse. It was discovered that only having one downspout results in lost potential, and drainage around the house leads to storm drains. The author outlines challenges like slope directing water to the street, and opportunities to implement water management techniques like catchments, storage, diversion and filtration to better utilize water resources.
The document outlines the goals and initial brainstorming for a homestead garden. It describes four main categories for the garden elements: permanent food sources, non-permanent food sources, infrastructure/buildings, and animals. Some elements could fit into multiple categories. The ultimate goal is to retire and supplement food and income from the garden. Elements chosen aim to "get a yield" as per permaculture principles. Bird houses and bee hives may not be suitable due to impacts on other plants and neighbors. The goals are to enjoy a peaceful homestead providing at least 25% of grocery needs through preserved food from the garden.
This document discusses genomic oncology and personalized medicine, using lung cancers as a model. It summarizes several key technologies that enable genomic oncology like cDNA microarrays, array CGH, and next generation sequencing. It provides examples of how these technologies have been used to classify cancers like diffuse large B-cell lymphoma and myelodysplastic syndrome, and identify genetic mutations that can guide targeted therapies for cancers like EGFR-mutated lung cancer.
Becky hopes to transform her small front yard into a productive homestead that provides her with fresh food, income, and enjoyment in retirement. She plans to use permaculture principles like maximizing elements' functions, observing natural cycles, and sharing abundance to create a self-sustaining system. Through site analysis, crop planning, and soil improvement, she aims to meet 25% of her food needs from the property and preserve excess through canning and drying.
This document discusses several indolent lymphoproliferative disorders of the gastrointestinal tract, including lymphomatoid gastropathy, NK cell enteropathy, and indolent T-cell lymphoproliferative disorders. It provides details on clinical presentations, endoscopic findings, histopathology, immunophenotypes, clinical outcomes, and differential diagnoses. Key points are that these disorders can present with nonspecific GI symptoms and are characterized by non-destructive, superficial infiltrates that rarely progress. Correct diagnosis requires integrating multiple findings to distinguish them from other entities like celiac disease or aggressive lymphomas. Optimal treatment approaches remain unclear.

This document provides information about cancer screening tests for people over 50. It discusses that cancer risk increases with age and outlines several common cancer types like breast, cervical, colorectal, prostate, and skin cancer. It recommends regular screening tests for each cancer type starting at age 50, including clinical exams, imaging tests, and lab tests. Finding cancer early through screening improves the chances of successful treatment.
Screening for prostate cancer remains controversial due to the high risk of overdiagnosis and overtreatment. While screening can find early-stage cancers, most prostate cancers grow slowly and will not cause harm. Screening often leads to unnecessary biopsies, treatments and side effects like impotence and incontinence without clear benefits. Younger, low-risk men are unlikely to benefit from PSA screening, while older men or those at higher risk may benefit if screening finds aggressive cancers early. Active surveillance is often preferred over immediate treatment for low-risk prostate cancers found by screening. Overall, more research is still needed to determine which men would benefit most from prostate cancer screening.
This document provides information about breast cancer including statistics, risk factors, screening, and tips for self-examination. Some key points are:

7. Health Check Up
Understanding Your Results and Taking
Action
BMI: weight (kg) / [height (m)]2
http://www.nhlbi.nih.gov/guidelines/obesity
/BMI/bmicalc.htm
Underweight = <18.5
Normal weight = 18.5–24.9
Overweight = 25–29.9
Obesity = BMI of 30 or greater
11. HTN
Normal: systolic blood pressure less than 120 mmHg
and a diastolic blood pressure less than 80 mmHg
Prehypertension: systolic blood pressure blood
pressure is between 120/139 mmHg or diastolic
blood pressure 80/89 mmHg
Hypertension : systolic blood pressure above 140
mmHg or a diastolic blood pressure above 90 mmHg
Those who do not have high blood pressure at age
55 face a 90 percent chance of developing it during
their lifetimes.
12. Diabetes
Hg A1C (A1C test measures your average
blood glucose for the past 2 to 3 months):
greater than or equal to 6.5%
Fasting Plasma Glucose (FPG): greater than
or equal to 126 mg/dl
Random (also called Casual) Plasma Glucose
Test (when you have severe diabetes
symptoms): greater than or equal to 200
mg/dl
13. Prediabetes
A1C of 5.7% – 6.4%
Fasting blood glucose of 100 – 125 mg/dl

14.
15. TC: total cholesterol, TG: triglyceride, HDL: high density lipoprotein
LDL: low density lipoprotein
16.
17.
18.
19. Everyone should have their cholesterol
(lipids) checked every five years after age 20,
according to the American Heart Association.
B 型肝炎表面抗原﹙ HBsAg﹚ 及 C 型肝炎抗
體 (anti-HCV)
Yearly blood work should include
a blood count to rule out any bleeding problems,
glucose levels to detect diabetes,
thyroid function tests to rule out any thyroid
disorder, and
blood electrolyte counts, which can detect kidney
problems and early heart problems.
20. Cancer Screening
Breast cancer
Yearly mammograms are recommended starting at age 40
and continuing for as long as a woman is in good health
Clinical breast exam (CBE) about every 3 years for women in
their 20s and 30s and every year for women 40 and over
Women should know how their breasts normally look and
feel and report any breast change promptly to their health
care provider. Breast self-exam (BSE) is an option for
women starting in their 20s.
Some women – because of their family history, a genetic
tendency, or certain other factors – should be screened with
MRI in addition to mammograms.
For more information, call the American Cancer Society and
ask for our document called Breast Cancer: Early Detection.
21. Colorectal cancer and polyps
Beginning at age 50, both men and women should follow one
of these testing schedules:
Tests that find polyps and cancer
Flexible sigmoidoscopy every 5 years*, or
Colonoscopy every 10 years, or
Double-contrast barium enema every 5 years*, or
CT colonography (virtual colonoscopy) every 5 years*
Tests that primarily find cancer
Yearly fecal occult blood test (gFOBT) or
Yearly fecal immunochemical test (FIT) every year

formation/colonandrectumcancerearlydetection/colorectal-
cancer-early-detection-acs-recommendations
22. Cervical cancer
Screen begin at age 21.
Women between ages 21 and 29 should have a Pap test every 3 years.
HPV testing should not be used in this age group unless it is needed after
an abnormal Pap test result.
Women between the ages of 30 and 65 should have a Pap test plus an
HPV test (called “co-testing”) every 5 years. This is the preferred
approach, but it is also OK to have a Pap test alone every 3 years.
Women over age 65 who have had regular cervical cancer testing with
normal results should not be tested for cervical cancer.
Women with a history of a serious cervical pre-cancer should continue to
be tested for at least 20 years after that diagnosis, even if testing
continues past age 65.
A woman who has had her uterus removed (and also her cervix) for
reasons not related to cervical cancer and who has no history of cervical
cancer or serious pre-cancer should not be tested.
A woman who has been vaccinated against HPV should still follow the
screening recommendations for her age group.
24. Lung cancer
Not recommend tests to screen for lung cancer in
people who are at average risk of this disease.
If you meet all of the following criteria then you
might be a candidate for screening:
55 to 74 years of age
In fairly good health
Have at least a 30 pack-year smoking history AND are
either still smoking or have quit smoking within the last
15 years
25. Vaccination
Flu: every year in late Sep. to early Oct.
Pneumococcal Vaccination: at age of 65 years
or older, or 5 years after 1st
dose received
before age of 65
26. Healthy Life Style
Health: Not just absence of disease.
True health: mind, body, heart, and spirit all play
vital roles in achieving optimal health.
Healthy life style: Diet, activity, managing
stress/stress-relieving (meditation), building and
strengthening relationships, finding meaning and
purpose, and maintaining positive change.
Faith playing an important role.
Re-engineering Your Environment.
27. Diet
Maximize—Plant foods by choosing whole grains, fruits,
vegetables; water and nuts-fiber is your best new friend.
Don’t constantly eat the same things.
Maximize variety and color.
Maximize your taste.
Enjoy your food—without this, the changes won’t last.
Moderate—The amount of food you eat.
Feel comfortably full and not until you are stuffed.
Consider smaller, more frequent meals (five smaller meals
a day instead of three larger ones)
Moderate any stress when eating—eating should be a
blessing and a pleasure.
Minimize—Minimize intke of animal protein, sugars, sugar
substitutes, salt, saturated fats.
Saturated fats are usually solid or almost solid at room
temperature. All animal fats are saturated. Processed and
fast foods are also saturated.
28.
29.
30. Sugar is the worst
3 teaspoons in milk, 6.5 teaspoons in
chocolate milk, 8.5 teaspoons in orange juice,
9.5 teaspoons in coke, and 10.75 teaspoons in
lemonade
Recommended sugar intake: Adult: 6 to 9
teaspoons a day; Children: 3 to 5 teaspoons a
day
Average American consumes 22 teaspoons
31. Exercise
Housework and gardening are not enough to challenge
your body’s capacity.
You need regular exercise: cardiovascular endurance,
strength or resistance training, and flexibility exercises:
qigong and yoga
Go for a brisk walk: a gentle, low-impact exercise and
easy on the joints, 30 minutes a day
Stretch – in bed is easiest: a good morning wake-up
stretch before you climb out of bed: twist your body left
and right, lift your arms overhead and contort your facial
muscles (a recipe for staying youthful). Take 15 rounds of
deep breathing.
32. Your maximum heart rate is about 220 minus
your age.
Heart rate during moderately intense activities
is about 50-69% of your maximum heart rate.
Heart rate during hard physical activity is
about 70% to 85% of the maximum heart rate.
33. For Overall Cardiovascular Health:
At least 30 minutes of moderate-intensity aerobic activity at
least 5 days per week for a total of 150 minutes
OR
At least 25 minutes of vigorous aerobic activity at least 3 days
per week for a total of 75 minutes; or a combination of
moderate- and vigorous-intensity aerobic activity
AND
Moderate- to high-intensity muscle-strengthening activity at
least 2 days per week for additional health benefits.
For Lowering Blood Pressure and Cholesterol:
An average 40 minutes of moderate- to vigorous-
intensity aerobic activity 3 or 4 times per week
34. Four types of exercise
Balance: stand on one foot, Yoga, Tai Chi
Strength: 8 to 12 repetitions, working the
muscles to the point of fatigue for each
muscle group; Yoga
Endurance: Walking briskly
Flexibility: Stretch, Yoga
