The digestive system breaks down food through mechanical and chemical digestion to extract nutrients for absorption. It involves both organs of the gastrointestinal tract - the mouth, esophagus, stomach, small intestine, large intestine - and accessory organs like the liver, gallbladder and pancreas. Food is ingested, broken down through peristalsis, enzymes, and absorption of nutrients occurs in the small intestine. Indigestible waste is eliminated as feces.
An important system of our body is known as digestive system which has its own role to play. This step of digestion serves as as a next route to the steps of absorption of nutrients by the small intestine and its respective transportation to the cells and tissues. This slide focuses on the different organs of digestion and their functions .

Bacteria are a type of biological cell. They constitute a large domain of prokaryotic microorganisms. Typically a few micrometres in length, bacteria have a number of shapes, ranging from spheres to rods and spirals. Bacteria were among the first life forms to appear on Earth, and are present in most of its habitats
Microbiology is the study of organisms that are usually too small to be seen by the unaided eye; it employs techniques—such as sterilization and the use of culture media—that are required to isolate and grow these microorganisms.
Bacteria have existed from very early in the history of life on Earth. Bacteria fossils discovered in rocks date from at least the Devonian Period (419.2 million to 358.9 million years ago), and there are convincing arguments that bacteria have been present since early Precambrian time, about 3.5 billion years ago.
Bacteria are microscopic, single-celled organisms that thrive in diverse environments. These organisms can live in soil, the ocean and inside the human gut. Humans' relationship with bacteria is complex. Sometimes bacteria lend us a helping hand, such as by curdling milk into yogurt or helping with our digestion

Diuretics, also called water pills, are medications designed to increase the amount of water and salt expelled from the body as urine. There are three types of prescription diuretics. They're often prescribed to help treat high blood pressure, but they're used for other conditions as well.
The main site of diuretic action is well established for the different groups of diuretics: carbonic anhydrase inhibitors act on the proximal tubulus, loop diuretics on the diluting segment, thiazides on the cortical diluting segment/distal tubulus, and potassium-sparing agents on distal tubulus/collecting ducts.

Proton-pump inhibitors are a group of medications whose main action is a pronounced and long-lasting reduction of stomach acid production. Within the class of medications, there is no clear evidence that one agent works better than another. They are the most potent inhibitors of acid secretion available.

In conclusion, the present study found that esomeprazole 40 mg daily may be more effective than either omeprazole 20 mg daily, pantoprazole 40 mg daily or lansoprazole 30 mg daily for the rapid relief of heartburn symptoms in patients with endoscopically proven reflux esophagitis.
Mechanisms of diuretic drugs. Diuretic drugs increase urine output by the kidney (i.e., promote diuresis). This is accomplished by altering how the kidney handles sodium. If the kidney excretes more sodium, then water excretion will also increase.

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.

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

2. Digestion
• Digestion may be defined as physiological process by
which complex food particles are broken down into
simple form which are suitable for absorption and
subsequent utilization.
Digestive system
• Digestive system is the system which involves organs that
are responsible for the process of digestion.
Gastrointestinal Tract:
• The digestive system is composed of a long muscular tube
– the gastrointestinal (GI) tract, or alimentary canal – and
a set of accessory organs.
3. Functions of Digestive (GI) Tract
• Ingestion
– Occurs when material
enters via the mouth
• Mechanical Processing
– Crushing / Shearing –
makes material easier to
move through the tract
• Digestion
– Chemical breakdown of
food into small organic
compounds for absorption
• Secretion
– Release of water acids,
buffers, enzymes & salts by
epithelium of GI tract and
glandular organs
• Absorption
– Movement of organic
substrates, electrolytes,
vitamins & water across
digestive epithelium
• Excretion
– Removal of waste products
from body fluids
4. Parts of Digestive system
ORGANS:
1. Mouth
2. Oropharynx
3. Oesophagus
4. Stomach
5. Small intestine
• Duodenum
• Jejunum
• Ileum
6. Large intestine
• Cecum
• Colon
• Rectum
• Anal canal
• ACCESSORY ORGANS:
• Salivary glands
• Liver
• Gall Bladder
• Pancreas
5.
6. Mouth
• Teeth mechanically break
down food by chewing
(mastication) into small
pieces. Tongue mixes food
with saliva and forms a
bolus. Tongue also allows
for sense of taste.
• Epiglottis is a flap-like
structure at the back of
the throat that closes
over the trachea
(windpipe) preventing
food from entering it.
SALIVA
• Saliva moistens food.
• Biocarbonate
maintains pH
• Amylase digest starch
• Lysozyme inhibits
bacteria.
7. PHARYNX
The back of the throat
Passageway for food and air.
Pharyngeal muscle propels the material
into esophagus and thus participates in
swallowing.
8. Esophagus
• Approximately 10” long and runs
from pharynx to stomach through
the diaphragm
• Functions include:
1. Secrete mucus
2. Moves food from the throat to the
stomach using muscle movement
called peristalsis
• If acid from the stomach gets in here
that’s heartburn.
Passageway for food only
(respiratory system branches off
after the pharynx)
9. Stomach
• Food is temporarily
stored here.
• Gastric juices are
secreted.
• Mechanically and
chemically breaks
down food.
• Delivers chyme
(processed food) to the
small intestine
10. Small Intestine
• Small intestines are roughly 7 meters long
• The body’s major digestive organ
• Lining of intestine walls has finger-like
projections called villi, to increase surface
area.
• The villi are covered in microvilli which
further increases surface area for
absorption.
11. Large Intestine
• About 5 feet long
• Accepts what small intestines don’t
absorb.
• Absorption of water to
concentrate waste.
• Does not participate in digestion of
food.
• Rectum (short term storage which
holds feces before it is expelled).
12. Accessory Organs
• Not part of the path
of food, but play a
critical role.
• Include: Liver, gall
bladder, and
pancreas
13. Liver
• Directly affects digestion by producing
bile
– Bile helps digest fat
• filters out toxins and waste including
drugs and alcohol
13
14. Gall Bladder
• Stores bile from the
liver, releases it into the
small intestine.
• Fatty diets can cause
gallstones
15. Pancreas
• Produces digestive
enzymes to digest fats,
carbohydrates and
proteins
• Secretes bicarbonate
into small intestine to
neutralize stomach acid
• Regulates blood sugar
by producing insulin
17. Processes of the Digestive System
1. Ingestion – getting food into the mouth
2. Propulsion –
a) Swallowing - It is the process by which bolus of food, formed during chewing is
propelled backward and pass into stomach through esophagus is called swallowing or
deglutition. It takes only 9-12 seconds.
b) Peristalsis is a series of wave like muscle contractions that moves food to different
processing stations in the digestive tract..
Peristaltic movement is initiated by circular smooth muscles contracting behind the chewed
material to prevent it from moving back into the mouth, followed by a contraction of
longitudinal smooth muscles which pushes the digested food forward.
The process of peristalsis begins in the esophagus when a bolus of food is swallowed. The
strong wave-like motions of the smooth muscle in the esophagus carry the food to the stomach,
where it is churned into a liquid mixture called chyme.
Next, peristalsis continues in the small intestine where mechanical digestion mixes and shifts
the chyme back and forth, allowing nutrients to be absorbed into the bloodstream through the
small intestine walls.
Peristalsis concludes in the large intestine where water from the undigested food material is
absorbed into the bloodstream. Finally, the remaining waste products are excreted from the body
through the rectum and anus.
19. Processes of the Digestive System
3) Mechanical digestion
Mixing of food in the mouth by the tongue
Churning of food in the stomach
Segmentation in the small intestine
Unlike peristalsis, which predominates in the
esophagus, segmentation contractions occur in
the large intestine and small intestine.
While peristalsis involves one-way motion in the
caudal direction, segmentation contractions move
chyme in both directions, which allows greater
mixing with the secretions of the intestines.
This process is carried out by longitudinal muscles
relaxing while circular muscles contract at
alternating sections thereby mixing the food.
