Sleep is important for physical and mental health. It is restorative and supports functions like memory, decision-making, and immune system functioning. Lack of sleep can lead to issues like impaired focus, mood changes, and health problems over time. Most adults need 7-9 hours of sleep per night, but quality and amount of sleep needed can vary between individuals. Improving sleep involves having good sleep habits like managing stress, keeping a regular schedule, and making the bedroom conducive to rest.

The Importance Of Getting A Good Night's SleepNathan Young
Did you wake up refreshed and ready for the day? Or did you wake up tired and falling asleep during the day? The fact is sleep is very important in our lives! This presentation talks about why sleep is important and why you need to focus on sleeping!
In a fast-paced world filled with demands and distractions, one cornerstone of well-being often takes a backseat – SLEEP.
As we navigate our busy lives, the value of a good night’s sleep cannot be overstated. It’s the essential downtime our bodies and minds need for repair, and ultimately, optimal function.
How To Avoid Interruptions & Stay Asleep All NightSastasundar
The first key to getting good sleep is finding out what works for you. This may require some experimenting on your part. There is no cure-all. We are all designed differently; therefore we all require different things.
Sleep is the golden chain that ties health and our bodies
together.
~ Thomas Dekker
Every one of us suffers from insomnia at some point in our
lives. It could be triggered by stressful periods in our
careers, a personal crisis, fear of an upcoming event or
worrying about finances may keep us awake and restless.
Feelings of guilt or grief are another culprit.
Whatever the reasons that keep you tossing and turning,
you know how it feels to drag yourself out of bed in the
morning. You are sapped of energy. Your body aches and
your brain is foggy. You feel irritable and grumpy. Your
sleepless night is going to reflect on your whole day – and
not for the better.

MANAGEMENT OF ATRIOVENTRICULAR CONDUCTION BLOCK.pdfJim Jacob Roy
Cardiac conduction defects can occur due to various causes.
Atrioventricular conduction blocks ( AV blocks ) are classified into 3 types.
This document describes the acute management of AV block.
The prostate is an exocrine gland of the male mammalian reproductive system
It is a walnut-sized gland that forms part of the male reproductive system and is located in front of the rectum and just below the urinary bladder
Function is to store and secrete a clear, slightly alkaline fluid that constitutes 10-30% of the volume of the seminal fluid that along with the spermatozoa, constitutes semen
A healthy human prostate measures (4cm-vertical, by 3cm-horizontal, 2cm ant-post ).
It surrounds the urethra just below the urinary bladder. It has anterior, median, posterior and two lateral lobes
It’s work is regulated by androgens which are responsible for male sex characteristics
Generalised disease of the prostate due to hormonal derangement which leads to non malignant enlargement of the gland (increase in the number of epithelial cells and stromal tissue)to cause compression of the urethra leading to symptoms (LUTS
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!

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

THE IMPORTANCE OF
SLEEP
Sleep is a naturally recurring state characterized by reduced or absent
consciousness, and the inactivity of nearly all voluntary muscles.
Sleep timing is controlled by the circadian clock, and in humans, to
some extent by willed behavior.
Sleep is restorative, and without it we are not able to work, learn,
create and communicate at our highest level. With time, lack of sleep
can lead to mental and physical breakdown.
Sleep has also been shown to be linked to the immune system. Sleep
loss can impair our immune function.
When we sleep, our metabolic rates reduce and free radical production
is decreased, allowing restorative processes to take over.
Sleep supports higher-level cognition functions such as decision-
making, reasoning and memory.
Understanding sleep, the power of it and how to get as much high-quality
sleep as possible is one of the healthiest things we can do.

HOW MUCH SLEEP
DO WE NEED
There is no protocol to how many hours of sleep we should get,
the best way to evaluate it is to monitor how we feel throughout the day.
If energy is low, memory is poor and we don’t feel alert, then chances are
we need more sleep.
