Title: Sense of Smell
Presenter: Dr. Faiza, Assistant Professor of Physiology
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

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. DEFINITION
Menopause, also known as the climacteric, is
the time in most women's lives
when menstrual periods stop permanently,
and they are no longer able to bear children.
Menopause typically occurs between 49 and
52 years of age.
4. ETIOLOGICAL FACTOR
Natural decline of reproductive hormones.
Hysterectomy.
Chemotherapy and radiation therapy. These
cancer therapies can induce menopause,
causing symptoms such as hot flashes during
or shortly after the course of treatment.
Primary ovarian insufficiency.
Removal of the ovaries (bilateral
oophorectomy surgery)
16. TEST & DIAGNOSIS
History Collection
Menopause is usually considered complete after 1
year of amenorrhea.
Tests typically aren't needed to diagnose
menopause. But under certain circumstances,
doctor may recommend blood tests to check
your level of:
17. Cont…
• Follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) and
estrogen (estradiol), because your FSH
levels increase and estradiol levels decrease as
menopause occurs.
18. Cont…
• Thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH),
because an underactive thyroid
(hypothyroidism) can cause symptoms similar
to those of menopause.
20. Treatments and drugs
Menopause requires no medical treatment.
Instead, treatments focus on relieving your
signs and symptoms and preventing or
managing chronic conditions that may occur
with aging.
Treatments may include:
21. • Hormone therapy. Estrogen therapy
remains, by far, the most effective treatment
option for relieving menopausal hot flashes.
Depending on your personal and family
medical history, your doctor may recommend
estrogen in the lowest dose needed to provide
symptom relief for you. If you still have your
uterus, you'll need progestin in addition to
estrogen. Estrogen also helps prevent bone
loss. And hormone therapy may benefit your
heart if started within five years after your last
menstrual period.
22. • Vaginal estrogen. To relieve vaginal
dryness, estrogen can be administered directly
to the vagina using a vaginal cream, tablet or
ring. This treatment releases just a small
amount of estrogen, which is absorbed by the
vaginal tissues. It can help relieve vaginal
dryness, discomfort with intercourse and
some urinary symptoms.
23.
24. • Low-dose antidepressants. Certain
antidepressants related to the class of drugs
called selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors
(SSRIs) may decrease menopausal hot flashes.
A low-dose antidepressant for management of
hot flashes may be useful for women who
can't take estrogen for health reasons or for
women who need an antidepressant for a
mood disorder.
25. • Gabapentin (Neurontin). Gabapentin is
approved to treat seizures, but it has also
been shown to help reduce hot flashes. This
drug is useful in women who can't use
estrogen therapy and in those who also have
migraines.
26. • Medications to prevent or treat
osteoporosis. Depending on individual
needs, doctors may recommend medication to
prevent or treat osteoporosis. Several
medications are available that help reduce
bone loss and risk of fractures.
27. • Before deciding
on any form of
treatment, talk with
your doctor about your
options and the risks
and benefits involved
with each. Review your
options yearly, as your
needs and treatment
options may change.
29. • Cool hot flashes.
Dress in layers, have a
cold glass of water or go
somewhere cooler. Try
to pinpoint what
triggers your hot
flashes. For many
women, triggers may
include hot beverages,
caffeine, spicy foods,
alcohol, stress, hot
weather and even a
warm room.
30. • Decrease vaginal discomfort. Use over-the-counter,
water-based vaginal lubricants or moisturizers
.Choose products that don't contain glycerin, which
can cause burning or irritation in women who are
sensitive to that chemical. Staying sexually active
also helps by increasing blood flow to the vagina.
31. • Get enough sleep.
Avoid caffeine, which
can make it hard to
get to sleep, and avoid
drinking too much
alcohol, which can
interrupt sleep.
Exercise during the
day, although not right
before bedtime. If hot
flashes disturb your
sleep, you may need
to find a way to
manage them before
you can get adequate
rest.
32. • Practice relaxation
techniques.
Techniques such as
deep breathing, paced
breathing, guided
imagery, massage and
progressive muscle
relaxation can help
relieve menopausal
symptoms. You can
find a number of
books, CDs and online
offerings on different
relaxation exercises.
33. • Eat a balanced diet.
Include a variety of
fruits, vegetables
and whole grains.
Limit saturated fats,
oils and sugars. Ask
your provider if you
need calcium or
vitamin D
supplements to help
meet daily
requirements.
34. • Exercise regularly.
Get regular physical
activity or exercise
on most days to help
protect against heart
disease, diabetes,
osteoporosis and
other conditions
associated with
aging.
35. • Don't smoke.
Smoking increases
your risk of heart
disease, stroke,
osteoporosis, cancer
and a range of other
health problems. It
may also increase
hot flashes and bring
on earlier
menopause.
36. COMPLICATION
• Heart and blood vessel (cardiovascular)
disease. When your estrogen levels decline, your
risk of cardiovascular disease increases.
• Osteoporosis. This condition causes bones to
become brittle and weak, leading to an increased
risk of fractures.
• Urinary incontinence. As the tissues of your
vagina and urethra lose elasticity, you may
experience frequent, sudden, strong urges to
urinate, followed by an involuntary loss of urine.
37. Cont…
• Sexual function. Vaginal dryness from
decreased moisture production and loss of
elasticity can cause discomfort
• Weight gain. Many women gain weight during
the menopausal transition and after
menopause because metabolism slows.
