Qualifications:
MBBS (Best Graduate, AIMC Lahore)
FCPS Physiology
ICMT, CHPE, DHPE (STMU)
MPH (GC University, Faisalabad)
MBA (Virtual University of Pakistan)
Learning Objectives:
Describe the primary categories of smells and the concept of odor blindness.
Explain the structure and location of the olfactory membrane and mucosa, including the types and roles of cells involved in olfaction.
Describe the pathway and mechanisms of olfactory signal transmission from the olfactory receptors to the brain.
Illustrate the biochemical cascade triggered by odorant binding to olfactory receptors, including the role of G-proteins and second messengers in generating an action potential.
Identify different types of olfactory disorders such as anosmia, hyposmia, hyperosmia, and dysosmia, including their potential causes.
Key Topics:
Olfactory Genes:
3% of the human genome accounts for olfactory genes.
400 genes for odorant receptors.
Olfactory Membrane:
Located in the superior part of the nasal cavity.
Medially: Folds downward along the superior septum.
Laterally: Folds over the superior turbinate and upper surface of the middle turbinate.
Total surface area: 5-10 square centimeters.
Olfactory Mucosa:
Olfactory Cells: Bipolar nerve cells derived from the CNS (100 million), with 4-25 olfactory cilia per cell.
Sustentacular Cells: Produce mucus and maintain ionic and molecular environment.
Basal Cells: Replace worn-out olfactory cells with an average lifespan of 1-2 months.
Bowman’s Gland: Secretes mucus.
Stimulation of Olfactory Cells:
Odorant dissolves in mucus and attaches to receptors on olfactory cilia.
Involves a cascade effect through G-proteins and second messengers, leading to depolarization and action potential generation in the olfactory nerve.
Quality of a Good Odorant:
Small (3-20 Carbon atoms), volatile, water-soluble, and lipid-soluble.
Facilitated by odorant-binding proteins in mucus.
Membrane Potential and Action Potential:
Resting membrane potential: -55mV.
Action potential frequency in the olfactory nerve increases with odorant strength.
Adaptation Towards the Sense of Smell:
Rapid adaptation within the first second, with further slow adaptation.
Psychological adaptation greater than receptor adaptation, involving feedback inhibition from the central nervous system.
Primary Sensations of Smell:
Camphoraceous, Musky, Floral, Pepperminty, Ethereal, Pungent, Putrid.
Odor Detection Threshold:
Examples: Hydrogen sulfide (0.0005 ppm), Methyl-mercaptan (0.002 ppm).
Some toxic substances are odorless at lethal concentrations.
Characteristics of Smell:
Odor blindness for single substances due to lack of appropriate receptor protein.
Behavioral and emotional influences of smell.
Transmission of Olfactory Signals:
From olfactory cells to glomeruli in the olfactory bulb, involving lateral inhibition.
Primitive, less old, and new olfactory systems with different path

Tom Selleck Health: A Comprehensive Look at the Iconic Actor’s Wellness Journeygreendigital
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

AAOS Clinical guideline for Dx infection 2010
The working group strongly recommended:
Testing ESR and CRP
Joint aspiration
The use of intraoperative frozen sections
Obtaining multiple intraoperative cultures ( at least 3 but no
more than 6 using different instrument for each sample and
from different areas)
• Against initiating antibiotic treatment until after cultures
• Against the use of intraoperative Gram stain
Nuclear imaging was weakly recommended as an option

What is the Definition of
Peri-prosthetic joint Infection
International Consensus Meeting in 2013 as:
Musculoskeletal Infection Society
A sinus tract communicating with the joint
OR
2 positive cultures with identical organisms
OR
3-4 of the following minor criteria:
Elevated CRP and ESR
Single positive culture
Elevated synovial fluid WCC —1,100 to 4,000 cells/µL
Elevated synovial fluid PMN 64%-69%
Presence of purulence in the affected joint
Isolation of a microorganism in one culture of tissue or fluid
Greater than 5 neutrophils per high-power field in five high-power fields
observed from histology at 400 times magnification

RCS Professional and Clinical Standards November 2016
Pre-admission patient optimisation
• Essential blood samples, FBC, U&Es, LFTs, Clotting screen and fibrinogen, B12 and folate and iron
studies
• General health optimisation
• Erythropoietin Hb <13g/dL M and Hb ≤ 12g/dL
• Erythropoietin ineffective in patients with iron, B12 or folate deficiency
Intraoperative considerations – blood conservation strategies
• Consider minimal invasive
• Hypotensive anaesthesia and even controled hypothermia
• Cell Salvage
• Coagulation stimulants such as Tranexamic acid and factors (VIIa, VIII, IX) and desmopressin
• Haemostatic aids: diathermy and radiofrequency ablation
• Regional anaesthesia with the consultant anaesthetist
Postoperative considerations
• Monitor and minimise blood loss postoperatively
• Monitor and avoid sepsis
• Consider postoperative EPO and/or Iron/B12 replacements
• Where appropriate and acceptable to the patient, use blood salvage from drains (cell saver)

Contraindications
• Bilateral knee disease
• Ipsilateral ankle or hip disease
• Ipsilateral hip arthrodesis
• Severe segmental bone loss
• Contralateral limb amputation.
149. POSTGRAD ORTH Deiary Kader
Optimal position for knee fusion
• 7°–10° of external rotation
• Slight valgus
• 10°–20° of flexion
• The above may be easier to achieve with
external fixator rather than IM nail.
