Ethanol (CH3CH2OH), or beverage alcohol, is a two-carbon alcohol
that is rapidly distributed in the body and brain. Ethanol alters many
neurochemical systems and has rewarding and addictive properties. It
is the oldest recreational drug and likely contributes to more morbidity,
mortality, and public health costs than all illicit drugs combined. The
5th edition of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders
(DSM-5) integrates alcohol abuse and alcohol dependence into a single
disorder called alcohol use disorder (AUD), with mild, moderate,
and severe subclassifications (American Psychiatric Association, 2013).
In the DSM-5, all types of substance abuse and dependence have been
combined into a single substance use disorder (SUD) on a continuum
from mild to severe. A diagnosis of AUD requires that at least two of
the 11 DSM-5 behaviors be present within a 12-month period (mild
AUD: 2–3 criteria; moderate AUD: 4–5 criteria; severe AUD: 6–11 criteria).
The four main behavioral effects of AUD are impaired control over
drinking, negative social consequences, risky use, and altered physiological
effects (tolerance, withdrawal). This chapter presents an overview
of the prevalence and harmful consequences of AUD in the U.S.,
the systemic nature of the disease, neurocircuitry and stages of AUD,
comorbidities, fetal alcohol spectrum disorders, genetic risk factors, and
pharmacotherapies for AUD.
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.

What is Stress?
6. What is Stress?
When demands are in balance with your coping
abilities and resources you do not feel stressed.
When demands are greater than your coping abilities
you feel stressed.
7. Appraisal of Threats and Resources
First we evaluate the threat. Is it?...
•Positive / Negative
•Controllable / Uncontrollable
•Challenging / Boring
•Irrelevant / Important
If the answer is “negative, uncontrollable, important” =
STRESS
Then we evaluate our resources. Can I handle this stress?
If the answer is “no” = STRESS
9. Fight or Flight Reaction
• Productive if you were in a situation where you need
to protect yourself
10. It is a Matter of Perception
Since we are very rarely attacked by bears our
perception of threat has changed
Now, a threat can be:
Social
Emotional
Financial
Work related
11. Sources of Stress
The Good
Retirement
Get married
Have children
Buy a new home
Go on vacation
New Job, Promotion
The Bad
Break a leg
Spouse becomes
ill

Gives you a burst of energy when you need it
Increases your motivation to complete tasks
Protects you from harm
Prevents you from walking down a dark alley way at
night
14. Stress and its impact on performance works in a bell
curve
More stress will help you give an optimal
performance
The “optimal” amount of stress is different for
everyone
Stress is Good in Small Doses
16. Negative Emotional Reactions
Feeling angry, irritable or easily frustrated
Feeling overwhelmed
Feeling nervous or anxious

problems
• How we think about those events
• Take our thoughts to be 100% true
• Focus on information that confirms them
• Ignore or bend information that disconfirms
31. Using Cognitive Therapy

• Consider the thought to be a hypothesis –
Not a Fact

• GOAL = Realistic and Useful thinking
• If needed, experiment to confirm or
disconfirm the thought

37. Testing Your Thoughts
Ask yourself:
What makes me think the thought is true?
What makes me think it is not true or not completely true?
What is an alternative way to look at the situation?
What is the worst thing that could happen and could I live through
it?
What is the best thing that could happen?
What is most likely to happen?
What will happen if I keep telling myself the same NAT over and
over?
What if I was to change my thinking?
What would I tell a friend who was going through the same exact
thing I am going through?
Now that you have tested your NAT what is a more realistic way
to think about your situation?

I don’t know why they have

If they are unhappy with

out with them and it does
not say anything bad about
me as a person.

41. Behavioral Experiments
Reduce or eliminate
avoidance behavior
Test stressful thoughts and
assumptions

perspectives
45. Physical Reactions
Relaxation Exercises
Will reduce fight/flight reaction
Like riding a bike for the first time.
It is a skill that takes time and practice to do it effectively!
Don’t expect much after trying it one or two times
Relaxation exercises can seem deceptively simple at first
With practice they are very effective
47. Pay It Forward
New research suggests oxytocin may
speed recovery from major stressors
The more we give to others, & the more
we get from others, the more oxytocin is
released
Being connected may
protect you from stress
