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.

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.

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!

2. Learning Objectives
By the end of this tutorial you should be able to:
• List the major causes of Acute Liver Failure
• List the major causes of Chronic Liver Failure
• Describe the types of Liver Failure
• Describe pathophysiology of sign and symptoms of Liver Failure
• Identify Hepatic Encephalopathy
• Identify Hepatorenal Syndrome
• Identify Hepatopulmonary Syndrome
3. 3
Liver Failure (LF) or Hepatic Failure (HF)
About 80 to 90% loss of hepatic functional capacity results in LF
Types:
Acute liver failure associated with encephalopathy within 6 months
after the initial diagnosis
Fulminant liver failure when encephalopathy develops within 2 weeks
of the onset of jaundice
Sub-fulminant liver failure when encephalopathy develops within 3
months of onset of jaundice
Chronic liver failure, end result of chronic hepatitis or chronic liver
disease, leads to cirrhosis
Hepatic dysfunction without apparent liver necrosis
4. LIVER FAILURE
Acute liver failure, due to massive liver necrosis caused by
Drug or toxin induced; direct toxic damage to hepatocytes or combination of
toxicity and inflammation with immune-mediated hepatocyte destruction e.g
acetaminophen, halothane, rifampin, isoniazid, antidepressant monoamine
oxidase inhibitors, CCL4, and mushroom poisoning (Amanita phalloides)
Viral Hepatitis; A, B & E infection accounts for 4-8% but not with HCV infection
Chronic liver disease
Most common route to LF; chronic hepatitis ending in cirrhosis
Hepatic dysfunction without necrosis
Hepatocytes may be viable but unable to perform normal function, seen in
Reye syndrome, tetracycline toxicity, and acute fatty liver of pregnancy
5. Pathologic Basis of Clinical Manifestation of LF
Hypoalbuminemia; Peripheral edema and ascites
Hyperammonemia; Cerebral dysfunction (encephalopathy)
Mercaptans formation; action of GIT bacteria on methionine, causes Fetor
hepaticus (body odor "sweet and sour“)
Impaired estrogen metabolism; Hyperestrogenemia, leads to hypogonadism
and gynecomastia in male
Reflection of local vasodilation-palmar erythema and spider angioma (a
central, pulsating, dilated arteriole from which small vessels radiate)
Impaired hepatic synthesis of clotting factors II, VII, IX & X; Bleeding
tendency in GIT Intestinal absorption of blood, metabolic load on liver,
worsens extent of LF
Highly susceptible to failure of multiple organ system; respiratory failure with
pneumonia and sepsis combine with renal failure
6. Hepatic encephalopathy
• Disorder of neurotransmission in CNS and neuromuscular system
associated with elevated blood ammonia levels
• Disturb consciousness, confusion, deep coma and death
• Flapping tremors
• Encephalopathy reversible if acute onset, in the chronic setting neuronal
dysfunction
7. Hepatorenal syndrome
Renal failure in severe CLD due to decrease glomerular filtration because of;
• Sodium and water retention
• Due to decreased renal perfusion pressure secondary to systemic
vasodilation
• Activation of renal SNS with vasoconstriction of afferent renal arteriole
• Increased synthesis of renal vasoactive mediators
8. Portopulmonary Hypertension or Hepatopulmonary Syndrome
Abnormal intrapulmonary vascular dilatation in combination with increased
pulmonary blood flow results in shunting of blood which leads to;
• Ventilation-perfusion mismatch
• Reduced oxygen diffusion
• Severe arterial hypoxemia
• Dyspnea
• Cyanosis
9. Ascites
The pathogenesis of ascites involves following mechanisms:
• Increased movement of intravascular fluid into the extravascular space of
Disse, caused by sinusoidal hypertension and hypoalbuminemia
• Renal retention of sodium and water due to secondary hyperaldosteronism
