The document provides information about the autonomic nervous system (ANS). It defines the ANS and describes its role in maintaining homeostasis. It outlines the anatomy of the ANS, including that it has two divisions - the sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous systems. It notes the locations and roles of the preganglionic and postganglionic neurons in both divisions. Finally, it provides some key effects of the sympathetic and parasympathetic systems and lists the objectives of the document.

Classification of peripheral nervous system: Structure and functions of
sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous system.
Origin and functions of spinal and cranial nerves.
The autonomic nervous system (ANS), formerly the vegetative nervous system, is a division of the peripheral nervous system that supplies smooth muscle and glands, and thus influences the function of internal organs. The autonomic nervous system is a control system that acts largely unconsciously and regulates bodily functions, such as the heart rate, digestion, respiratory rate, pupillary response, urination, and sexual arousal.

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

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

Objectives
At the end of the lecture, the students should be able
to:
● Define the autonomic nervous system.
● Describe the structure of autonomic nervous
system.
● Trace the preganglionic & postganglionic neurons
in both sympathetic & parasympathetic nervous
system.
● Enumerate in brief the main effects of
sympathetic & parasympathetic system.
3. Autonomic Nervous System
Concerned with the innervation and control of Involuntary structures:
visceral organs, smooth & cardiac muscles and glands.
Note: Hypothalamus controls both of Autonomic system + Endocrine system.
● Function: maintain homeostasis of the
internal environment along with the
Endocrine system.
● Located: both in the central and
peripheral nervous systems.
● Regulated: (controlled) by
Hypothalamus.
4. Autonomic Nervous System
Preganglionic Neuron
Postganglionic Neuron
Autonomic Ganglion
Preganglionic Axon Postganglionic Axon
Somatic Motor Neuron
Dorsal Root
Ventral Root
Unlike the somatic nervous system, the
Efferent pathway of the autonomic nervous
system is made up of two neurons called as
preganglionic and postganglionic neurons.
The cell bodies of the preganglionic neurons
are located in the brain and spinal cord. Their
axons synapse with the postganglionic
neurons whose cell bodies are located in the
autonomic ganglia.
Note: before the fibers reach the target, it should first pass by the autonomic ganglion and synapse.
Note: slide was only found in girls slides
5. Based on the anatomical, physiological and pharmacological characteristics,
the autonomic nervous system is divided into:
▪ Sympathetic:
Activated during exercise, excitement,
and emergencies.
“fight or flight”.
▪ Parasympathetic:
Concerned with conserving energy.
“rest and digest”
Autonomic Nervous System
Both divisions operate in conjunction with one another (have antagonistic control over the viscera) to
maintain a stable internal environment

6. Autonomic Nervous System
Sympathetic Parasympathetic
-Preganglionic neuron is
in the CNS.
-The Preganglionic
fiber(axon) is shorter.
-The Postganglionic

and far from the target.
-The Postganglionic fiber
(axon) is longer.
-Preganglionic neuron is in
the CNS.
-The Preganglionic
fiber(axon) is longer.
-The Postganglionic
neuron is in the PNS and
close to the target
-The Postganglionic
fiber(axon) is shorter.
Note: The cause of preganglionic (White) and postganglionic (Grey) fibers having different
colors is the Myelin sheath that the preganglionic fibers (white) are sheeted with.
Myelin helps isolate preganglionic fibers for faster transportation. (اﺳﺮع وﯾﻮﺻﻞ اﻛﺜﺮ ﻣﻌﺰول ﺗﺨﻠﯿﮫ )
