This study examined the association between oral health factors and mortality in older Japanese adults. Over 17,000 participants aged 75 and over underwent oral health examinations assessing dental status, swallowing ability, dry mouth, plaque, and oral hygiene. Participants were followed for mortality, with a median follow up of 9.4 years. Poor oral health factors like fewer teeth, poor oral hygiene, and dry mouth were significantly associated with higher all-cause mortality based on Cox proportional hazards models, with a cumulative effect of multiple poor oral health factors further increasing mortality risk.

Dental Myth, Fallacies and Misconceptions and its Association with Socio-Dent...DrRipika Sharma
Introduction: It is important to know about the myths and misconceptions, especially in India, where general and oral health is
embroiled in various myths and ritualistic practices.
Objectives: The purpose of this study is aimed at assessing the prevalence of dental myth and utilizes socio-dental impact
locus of control scale (SILOC) health model, as the theoretical framework to understand the dental myth and belief and possible
reasons for noncompliance with recommended health action.
Materials and Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted by the out-patients attending dental institute, in Bengaluru
city. A total of 150 individuals were included, data were collected using a pretested and validated three-part questionnaire
including demographic data, questions regarding dental myth, and seven items SILOC. Data obtained were statistically analyzed
using descriptive statistics, t-test, and spearman’s rank correlation.
Results: Almost all the participant believed in one or more dental myth. About 71.3% of the participant had high (≥11) SILOC
scores. Statistically significant difference (P < 0.001) was found between mean SILOC scores and gender with males having
a lower mean score (14.94) as compared to females (18.62). When SILOC scores and myth scores were compared against
socioeconomic status, it showed statistically significant difference (P < 0.001), between them. The SILOC scores highly correlated
with myth scores.
Conclusion: Various dental myth and false perception still lurk in the minds of the population, to discourage the unhealthy
practices; we the health professionals have to provide intensive health education and promote the adoption of healthy practices.
It would be prudent to familiarize professionals to understand these myths and beliefs as they act as barriers toward seeking
treatment.
Key words: Culture, Gender, Internal-external control, Oral health, Social class
Dental indices can be considered as the main tool of epidemiological studies in dental diseases, to find out the incidence, prevalence and severity of the diseases, based on which preventive programmes are adopted for their control and prevention.
Comprehensive Assessment of Attitude Towards Denture Hygiene Habits in Compl...Ajay Pacharne
Abstract---Background and Aim: With the advanced innovations in
the rehabilitation techniques, the usages of removable denture have
been reduced significantly. However; complete denture are one of the
most common and trendy avenue for restoring completely edentulous
situations. The ultimate aim of this study was to assess the denture
hygiene attitude in complete denture patients. Materials and Methods:
A total of 100 complete denture wearing patients were selected for this
assessment. The patients were selected in the age range of 45-70
years. The methodologies were explained to the patients prior to the
real execution of the study. All interested complete denture patients
were included in the study. We also performed a small demographic
recording of the patients that includes data on gender, age, length of
prosthesis utilize, cleaning strategies and materials, and so on.
Statistical Analysis and Results: Basic statistical analysis was
completed using SPSS statistical package for the Social Sciences
version 21 for Windows. Only 58% of the patients reported that they
use to clean their dentures every day once. Approximately 68% of the
patients agreed that they do not remember the verbal and written
instructions for denture hygiene at the time of delivery of complete
dentures by the dentists.

Abstract
Age estimation of unknown human cadavers is important in setting a crime investigation, such as homicide, suicide or in mass disaster because it can guide forensic investigators to the correct identity among a large number of possible matches. More and more the courts ask for medico-legal age estimations of unknown human cadavers by forensic dentistry. This research project in establishing the applicability of radiographic and morphological parameter's used in forensic dentistry in a Portuguese adult population. The main goal is to compare the chronological age with the dental age estimation by radiographic and morphological parameters. To achieve this objective, thirty-five single-rooted teeth were analysed. Radiographic analysis was made through the program of digital radiology software Kodak RVG intra-oral 2200 with exposure factors 60-70 KVp and 7mA. The morphological parameter, translucent dentin was assessed in intact and sectioned tooth. The relationship between the coefficients was calculated between the age and the ratios with the level of inclusion, p< 0.05. There was no statistically significant difference between the chronological age and the age estimation by each method. The coefficient of Pearson for the direct measurements of the translucent dentin methodology for sectioned teeth gives the better correlation with the age estimate (r=0.86).

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!

Tom Selleck, an enduring figure in Hollywood. has captivated audiences for decades with his rugged charm, iconic moustache. and memorable roles in television and film. From his breakout role as Thomas Magnum in Magnum P.I. to his current portrayal of Frank Reagan in Blue Bloods. Selleck's career has spanned over 50 years. But beyond his professional achievements. fans have often been curious about Tom Selleck Health. especially as he has aged in the public eye.
Follow us on: Pinterest
Introduction
Many have been interested in Tom Selleck health. not only because of his enduring presence on screen but also because of the challenges. and lifestyle choices he has faced and made over the years. This article delves into the various aspects of Tom Selleck health. exploring his fitness regimen, diet, mental health. and the challenges he has encountered as he ages. We'll look at how he maintains his well-being. the health issues he has faced, and his approach to ageing .
Early Life and Career
Childhood and Athletic Beginnings
Tom Selleck was born on January 29, 1945, in Detroit, Michigan, and grew up in Sherman Oaks, California. From an early age, he was involved in sports, particularly basketball. which played a significant role in his physical development. His athletic pursuits continued into college. where he attended the University of Southern California (USC) on a basketball scholarship. This early involvement in sports laid a strong foundation for his physical health and disciplined lifestyle.
Transition to Acting
Selleck's transition from an athlete to an actor came with its physical demands. His first significant role in "Magnum P.I." required him to perform various stunts and maintain a fit appearance. This role, which he played from 1980 to 1988. necessitated a rigorous fitness routine to meet the show's demands. setting the stage for his long-term commitment to health and wellness.
Fitness Regimen
Workout Routine
Tom Selleck health and fitness regimen has evolved. adapting to his changing roles and age. During his "Magnum, P.I." days. Selleck's workouts were intense and focused on building and maintaining muscle mass. His routine included weightlifting, cardiovascular exercises. and specific training for the stunts he performed on the show.
Selleck adjusted his fitness routine as he aged to suit his body's needs. Today, his workouts focus on maintaining flexibility, strength, and cardiovascular health. He incorporates low-impact exercises such as swimming, walking, and light weightlifting. This balanced approach helps him stay fit without putting undue strain on his joints and muscles.
Importance of Flexibility and Mobility
In recent years, Selleck has emphasized the importance of flexibility and mobility in his fitness regimen. Understanding the natural decline in muscle mass and joint flexibility with age. he includes stretching and yoga in his routine. These practices help prevent injuries, improve posture, and maintain mobilit

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 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

19. HAZARD RATIO
• HR=1 (even rates are the same in both arms)
• HR=2 (at any time, twice as many patients in the
treatment group are having an event proportionally to the
comparator group)
• HR=0.5 (at any time, half as many patients in the
treatment group are having an event proportionally to the
comparator group)
20. HAZARD RATIO
• Often interpreted as relative risk
-Technically they are no the same.
29. METHODOLOGY
ORAL HEALTH EXAMINATION
• Dentists used detailed manuals to standardize the assessment of oral health.
• Sound, decayed, filled or missing.
• Number of sound, decayed and filled teeth, excluding third molars
30. METHODOLOGY
ORAL HEALTH EXAMINATION
• The Repetitive Saliva Swallowing Test (RSST)
• Swallow saliva three times or more in 30 seconds.
• Swallowed less than 3 times
31. METHODOLOGY
ORAL HEALTH EXAMINATION
• Participants included edentulous individuals, and oral hygiene status was classified
based on visual assessment of the residual food debris in the oral cavity.
• Classification included “good” (cannot see food debris on visual inspection),
“moderate” (food debris are observed in the inter-dental spaces) and “bad” (food
debris are found in the oral vestibule).
• Dry mouth was evaluated using a scale that included the objective condition of the
oral mucosa and was classified into four categories as normal, mild, moderate or
severe
32. METHODOLOGY
ORAL HEALTH EXAMINATION
• Number of teeth into two categories (≥20 teeth vs ≤19 teeth)
• The oral hygiene status into two categories (good vs moderate or bad)
• Oral dryness into two categories (normal or mild vs. moderate or severe)
33. METHODOLOGY
Questionnaire
• Information on lifestyle and health - selfadministered questionnaire.
• Body mass index (<18.5 kg/m2,18.5-<25 kg/m2 or >=25kg/m2)
• Smoking habit (non-smoker vs smoker)
• Current medical history (stroke, cardiovascular disease, cancer and pulmonary
disease) were used as factors associated with mortality.
34. METHODOLOGY
MORTALITY
• Date on which a patient's data were deleted from the data managed by the insurer
for the latestage medical care system in Mie Prefecture due to death.
• The follow-up period for confirming survival or death was from the month in which
each participant underwent an oral health examination to March 2018.
• Thirty people who were excluded from the database by the medical insurer for
reasons other than death by the end of March 2018 were regarded as CENSORED
data for survival until the time of exclusion.
40. DISCUSSION
Aims and Objectives Results Inference
• A lomgitudinal study was
conducted by Ayumi et al in the
year 2014
• Associations of number of teeth
with all-cause mortality and
cause-specific mortality among
middle-aged and elderly
Japanese men.
In total participants, an inverse
relationship between number of
teeth and all-cause mortality was
found (P for trend = 0.049). Among
men aged 40-64 years, inverse
relationships were also found in
risks for mortality from all
causes, CVD, and cancer:
multivariate-adjusted HRs (95%
CI) for all-cause mortality in men
with no teeth, 1-9 teeth, and 10-
19 teeth relative to men with ≥20
teeth were 2.75 (1.37-5.49), 1.89
(0.99-3.63), and 1.94 (1.09-3.43),
respectively.
SIMILAR
41. DISCUSSION
Aims and Objectives Results Inference
• A longitudinal study was
conducted by Naruishi et al in
the year 2018
• Examine the significant factors
for predicting life prognosis of
elderly in end-of-life care.
There were no significant
differences in number of days when
divided with or without past illness
of aspiration pneumonia,
cerebrovascular disorder and
impaired cognitive function. The
survival probabilities of elderly
with impaired swallowing
function were significant lower
than in elderly with the normal
function.
SIMILAR
43. LIMITATIONS
• As the oral health examinations were voluntary, the participants were probably relatively
healthy and interested in their oral health.
• Since the participants were community-dwelling independent older people, the risk factors for
mortality are thought to differ if the targeted people are frail or need long-term care.
• Multiple statistical tests were performed using all possible combinations of oral health factors.
And associations between factor may have introduced multiplicity errors into the analysis.
• Did not consider the use or condition of dentures, which affect occlusion or swallowing, as an
oral condition item.
• Specific medications are associated with dry mouth and may lead to a risk of mortality, but no
information was there about the participants’ medications.
• The causes of death of the participants were unknown, it is unclear what diseases contributed
to mortality.
44. CONCLUSION
Oral dryness, oral hygiene and number of teeth are significantly related to the risk of
mortality, and a cumulative poor oral status significantly increased the risk of mortality.

THE DISEASES WHICH CONTRIBUTE TOWARDS THE HIGHEST AMOUNT OFDEATH IN THE WORLD ARE
ORAL FACTORS CONNECTED TO THESE DISEASES DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY
Atherosclerosis is the buildup of fats, cholesterol and other substances in and on the artery walls. This buildup is called plaque. The plaque can cause arteries to narrow, blocking blood flow.(VIABLE BACTERIA IN BLOOD)
Pneumonia is an infection that inflames the air sacs in one or both lungs. The air sacs may fill with fluid or pus (purulent material), causing cough with phlegm or pus, fever, chills, and difficulty breathing. A variety of organisms, including bacteria, viruses and fungi, can cause pneumonia. The causative microorganisms in aspiration pneumonia, similar to community-acquired pneumonia, are basically thought to be bacteria residing in the oral cavity, such as pneumococcus, Haemophilus influenzae, Staphylococcus aureus and anaerobes.
Silent aspiration is when you accidentally inhale food, liquid or other material into your trachea. Sarcopenia has been defined as an age related, involuntary loss of skeletal muscle mass and strength. The onset of AsP leads to muscle atrophy and weakness of the swallowing and respiratory muscles; that is, a state of pneumonia-associated sarcopenia. Decreases in upper airway protective reflexes and sarcopenia are likely to lead to recurrent pneumonia and further sarcopenia progression, resulting in feeding difficulties and undernutrition. The inability to meet nutritional requirements, whether by oral intake or other nutritional routes, can be considered terminal
Sarcopenic dysphagia is difficulty swallowing due to sarcopenia of generalized skeletal muscles and swallowing muscles. Age-related loss of swallowing muscle mass becomes evident in the geniohyoid muscle and tongue.
The time the event tends to occur after something known as exposure. Example an exposure can be something like a dignosisi. The event we are interested in can be something like death or a particular outcome like cirrhosis of the liver. Cirrhosis being the common outcome after one has been diagnosed with hepatitis. Diagnosis of the hepatitis is where the clock starts. And progression into cirrhosis of liver is when the clock stops. This time between the events of interest is known as the survival time.An event can often be death when we are using surviaval analysis.
Measurement of survival time. In this example we will use lung cancer as the exposure and we will assess the survival time from the occurrence of lung cancer.lets say we are conducting the study over a course of 10 years.
