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

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

Recomendações da OMS sobre cuidados maternos e neonatais para uma experiência pós-natal positiva.
Em consonância com os ODS – Objetivos do Desenvolvimento Sustentável e a Estratégia Global para a Saúde das Mulheres, Crianças e Adolescentes, e aplicando uma abordagem baseada nos direitos humanos, os esforços de cuidados pós-natais devem expandir-se para além da cobertura e da simples sobrevivência, de modo a incluir cuidados de qualidade.
Estas diretrizes visam melhorar a qualidade dos cuidados pós-natais essenciais e de rotina prestados às mulheres e aos recém-nascidos, com o objetivo final de melhorar a saúde e o bem-estar materno e neonatal.
Uma “experiência pós-natal positiva” é um resultado importante para todas as mulheres que dão à luz e para os seus recém-nascidos, estabelecendo as bases para a melhoria da saúde e do bem-estar a curto e longo prazo. Uma experiência pós-natal positiva é definida como aquela em que as mulheres, pessoas que gestam, os recém-nascidos, os casais, os pais, os cuidadores e as famílias recebem informação consistente, garantia e apoio de profissionais de saúde motivados; e onde um sistema de saúde flexível e com recursos reconheça as necessidades das mulheres e dos bebês e respeite o seu contexto cultural.
Estas diretrizes consolidadas apresentam algumas recomendações novas e já bem fundamentadas sobre cuidados pós-natais de rotina para mulheres e neonatos que recebem cuidados no pós-parto em unidades de saúde ou na comunidade, independentemente dos recursos disponíveis.
É fornecido um conjunto abrangente de recomendações para cuidados durante o período puerperal, com ênfase nos cuidados essenciais que todas as mulheres e recém-nascidos devem receber, e com a devida atenção à qualidade dos cuidados; isto é, a entrega e a experiência do cuidado recebido. Estas diretrizes atualizam e ampliam as recomendações da OMS de 2014 sobre cuidados pós-natais da mãe e do recém-nascido e complementam as atuais diretrizes da OMS sobre a gestão de complicações pós-natais.
O estabelecimento da amamentação e o manejo das principais intercorrências é contemplada.
Recomendamos muito.
Vamos discutir essas recomendações no nosso curso de pós-graduação em Aleitamento no Instituto Ciclos.

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.

2. Introduction:
The larynx is the portion of the
respiratory tract containing the
vocal cords.
The larynx functions in:
Deglutition (swallowing)
Respiration (breathing)
Phonation (voice production)
It also known as Voice Box.
3. Location:
• Larynx lies in anterior midline of neck, extending
from root of tongue to the trachea.
• It lies in front of 3rd
to 6th
cervical vertebrae.
Size:
• Length of larynx :
• Male - 44 mm
• Female - 36mm
• Difference in the size occur at the time puberty.
• Smaller size in female resulting in high pitch tone of
voice.
4. The Larynx: Important Relations
The larynx related to major critical
structures:
Carotid arteries , jugular veins,
and vagus nerve
Superior and inferior thyroid
arteries
Superior and recurrent
laryngeal nerves
5. Structure
The larynx consists of four
basic components:
A cartilaginous skeleton
Membranes and
ligaments
Intrinsic and extrinsic
muscles
Mucosal lining
6. The Cartilages
The cartilaginous skeleton includes following -:
Single Cartilages:
Thyroid
Cricoid
Epiglottis
Paired Cartilages:
Arytenoid
Corniculate
Cuneiform
7. All the cartilages, except the
epiglottis, are of hyaline
type.
Epiglottis is formed of
elastic cartilage
The cartilages are:
Connected by joints,
membranes & ligaments
Moved by muscles
8. Thyroid Cartilage
It has two laminae, which meet in the
midline and form a prominent angle,
called laryngeal prominence (Adam’s
apple) and the superior thyroid notch
at the rostral margin of the
The posterior border of each lamina
forms superior & inferior cornu (horns)
Outer surface of each lamina shows an
oblique line which gives attachment
to thyrohyoid, sternothyroid & inferior
constrictor of the pharynx
The superior border gives attachment
to the thyrohyoid membrane.
Oblique

9. Cricoid Cartilage
It lies below the thyroid
cartilage
It forms a complete ring
It has a narrow anterior arch
& a broad posterior lamina.
It has an articular facet on its:
• Lateral surface for articulation with
inferior cornu of the thyroid cartilage
(a synovial joint)
• Upper border for articulation with
base of arytenoid cartilage (a synovial
joint)
10. Epiglottic Cartilage
Leaf shaped, situated behind the root
of the tongue
Connected:
In front to the body of hyoid bone
by the hyoepiglottic ligament
By its stalk to the back of thyroid
cartilage by the thyroepiglottic
ligament
Upper edge is free.
Laterally gives attachment to
aryepiglottic fold
Anteriorly mucosa is reflected onto
the tongue forming three
glossoepiglottic folds & valleculae
11. Arytenoid Cartilages
Small, pyramidal in shape
It is situated at the back of the larynx
has:
A base articulating with the upper
border of the cricoid cartilage.
• An apex supporting the corniculate
cartilage.
• A vocal process projecting forward,
gives attachment to the vocal
ligament.
• A muscular process projecting
laterally, gives attachment to muscles .
12. Corniculate & Cuneiform Cartilages
Corniculate Cartilages
Small nodules.
Articulate with the apices of
arytenoid cartilages.
Cuneiform Cartilages
Small rod shaped, placed in
each aryepiglottic fold, producing
a small elevation.
Do not articulate with any other
cartilage .
It serve as support for the
ary-epiglottic fold

14. Quadrangular membrane:
Extends between the epiglottis and
the arytenoid cartilages
Its lower free margin forms the
vestibular ligament that lies within
the vestibular fold
Cricothyroid membrane (conus
elasticus):
Lower margin is attached to
upper border of cricoid cartilage
Upper free margin forms vocal
ligament that is attached
anteriorly to deep surface of
thyroid cartilage & posteriorly to
the vocal process of arytenoid
cartilage
15. Laryngeal Inlet
It faces backward and upward
and opens into the laryngeal part
of the pharynx
The opening is bounded:
• Anteriorly: by the upper
margin of epiglottis
• Posteriorly: below by arytenoid
cartilages
• Laterally: by aryepiglottic folds

17. Laryngeal Cavity
Divided into three parts:
Supraglottic part, the
part above the vestibular
folds, is called the
vestibule.
The part between the
vestibular & the vocal
folds, is called the
ventricle .
Infraglottic part, the
part below the vocal folds.

C
18. Vestibular Part:
Extends from the inlet to the
vestibular fold
Below it becomes narrow as
the vestibular folds project
medially.
Each vestibular fold contains
vestibular ligament, the
lower free margin of the
quadrangular membrane
stretching from thyroid
cartilage to the arytenoid
cartilage
Lower Part:
Extends from vocal folds to
lower border of cricoid
cartilage
Walls formed by the inner
surface of the cricothyroid
ligament and the cricoid
cartilage
19. Middle Part
It extend from vestibular
folds to the vocal folds.
Laterally a small recess
between the vestibular
fold & the vocal fold is
called the sinus of the
larynx, which may extend
upwards between
vestibular fold and the
thyroid cartilage as
saccule of the larynx.
20. Mucous Membrane
The cavity is lined with ciliated columnar epithelium.
The surface of vocal folds, because of exposure to continuous
trauma during phonation, is covered with stratified squamous
epithelium.
It contains many mucous glands, more numerous in the saccule
(for lubrication of vocal folds).
Muscles:
Divided into two groups:
Extrinsic muscles: It divided into two groups
• Elevators of the larynx
• Depressors of the larynx
Intrinsic muscles: It divided into two groups
• Muscles controlling the laryngeal inlet
• Muscles controlling the movements of the vocal cords
21. Extrinsic muscles
It includes—
All the infrahyoid muscles :(sternohyoid,
sternothyroid, thyrohyoid and omohyoid)
Some of the pharyngeal :(palatopharyngeus
and stylopharyngeus and suprahyoid
muscles.)
28. Muscle Increasing the Length & Tension of
the Vocal Cords
Cricothyroid: It increases the
distance between the angle of
the thyroid cartilage & the vocal
processes of the arytenoid
cartilages, and results in increase
in the length & tension of the
vocal cords .
29. Muscle decreasing the Length & Tension of
Vocal Cords
Thyroarytenoid (vocalis):
pulls the arytenoid
cartilage forward toward
the thyroid cartilage and
thus shortens and
relaxes the vocal cords
.
30. Movements of the Vocal Cords
Adduction
Abduction
Folds closed (adducted) Folds open (abducted)
(View from above)
Glottis (space between folds)
31. Adductors of the Vocal Arytenoids
Muscle involved are -:
•Lateral cricoarytenoids
•Transverse cricoarytenoid
34. Sphincteric Function of the
Larynx
There are two sphincters:
At the inlet: It is used only
during swallowing.
At the rima glottis: It is
used in coughing and
sneezing
35. Blood Supply & Lymphatic Drainage
Arteries:
Upper half: Superior laryngeal
artery, branch of superior
thyroid artery
Lower half: Inferior laryngeal
artery, branch of inferior thyroid
artery
Veins:
Accompany the corresponding
arteries
Lymphatics:
The lymph vessels drain into the
deep cervical lymph nodes
36. Nerve Supply
Sensory
Above the vocal cords: Internal
laryngeal nerve, branch of the
superior laryngeal branch of the
vagus nerve
Below the vocal cords: Recurrent
laryngeal nerve, branch of the
vagus nerve
Motor
All intrinsic muscles, except
cricothyroid, supplied by the
recurrent laryngeal nerve
The cricothyroid muscle is
supplied by the external laryngeal
nerve, a branch of the superior
laryngeal branch of vagus nerve
37. Production of Voice
The production of voice has three components:
The generation of sound: Sound production originates from the larynx as a
fundamental tone by the intermittent release of expired air between the
adducted vocal cords resulting in their vibration.
The resonance of sound: This tone is modified by various resonating chambers
(resonators) i.e. pharynx, mouth and paranasal sinuses.
The articulation of voice (speech production) : Finally converted to speech by the
action of the mouth, nose, nasal cavity and throat, where the tongue, palate,
cheek and lips are involved in articulation.
Parameters of Voice
Quality, Loudness, and Pitch
Quality :It depends on symmetrical vibration at the midline of the glottis
Loudness :It is influenced by subglottic pressure, glottic resistance, transglottic
air flow, and amplitude of vibration
Pitch : It depends on the alterations in length and tension of vocal folds
