This document discusses Alzheimer's disease, including what it is, how it works, its progression and stages, who can get it, symptoms, causes, treatments, its impact on men's health, and recommendations. Alzheimer's slows connections between brain cells and causes plaques and tangles that build up and damage cells. It typically begins around age 60 and risk rises with age. While the exact cause is unknown, factors like age, genetics, health conditions increase risk. There are some treatments but no cure currently. Men are twice as likely to get Alzheimer's than women.

Alzheimer's disease is a progressive condition, which means the symptoms develop gradually over many years and eventually become more severe. It affects multiple brain functions.
The first sign of Alzheimer's disease is usually minor memory problems.
For example, this could be forgetting about recent conversations or events, and forgetting the names of places and objects.
As the condition develops, memory problems become more severe and further symptoms can develop, such as:
confusion, disorientation and getting lost in familiar places
difficulty planning or making decisions
problems with speech and language
problems moving around without assistance or performing self-care tasks
personality changes, such as becoming aggressive, demanding and suspicious of others
hallucinations (seeing or hearing things that are not there) and delusions (believing things that are untrue)
low mood or anxiety
Alzheimer's disease is a progressive neurologic disorder that causes atrophy of brain cells, leading it to cell death. it is degenerative and progressive illness. Increase in age with sedentary lifestyle and lack of brain storming activities are indirectly leading to mental disorders with cognitive disruptions like dementia and lading up into Alzheimer's, which makes life miserable of client due to dependency. It is essential to keep the elderly active physiologically as well as psychologically. Statistical data of several studies shows the rise in the cases of Alzheimer's disease, which is the highlighting point of concern. Due to increased digitalization and decreased socialization among the human species throughout globe is leading to increased in risk of getting cognitive deficits.
Alzheimer's disease is a causes a progressive loss of brain cells leading to memory loss. In this slide we will learn about its causes,symptoms, pathophysiology, treatment, medication and risk factors.

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

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!

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
2. What is Alzheimer's?
Alzheimer’s is the most common form of Dementia in older
adults.
Alzheimer’s impacts areas of the brain that involve thought,
memory, language, and eventually motor skills.
It slows functions between Nerve cells in the brain
Known causes of Alzheimer’s are still vastly UNKNOWN
3. How it Works
Alzheimer’s slows connections between nerve cells in the
brain making communication difficult, eventually it causes
brain cells to stop functioning entirely and then they die.
Two things that scientists believe are critical to how
Alzheimer’s works are Plaques and Tangles
Plaques are protein deposits from beta-amyloid that build
up between nerve cells
Tangles are twists fibers of the Tau protein that build up
inside cells.
5. Stages of Alzheimer’s
First stage- Slight memory problems, poor judgment, mood
changes.
Stage 2- Disability in performing tasks, may need help from
others. Short and Long term memory problems.
Stage 3- Loss of motor functions, can’t speak, recognize
people, loss of control for bodily functions, memory nearly
gone.
6. Who can get it?
According to recent CDC studies over 5 million Americans
alone suffer from Alzheimer’s.
In rare cases young adults can get it, Alzheimer’s tends to
begin around age 60 and goes up in risk every year.
5% of men and women will get Alzheimer’s around age
64-75, and nearly half of people age 85 might already have
it.
7. Symptoms
Memory loss that disrupts daily life
Challenges in problem solving
Confusion with time/place
Trouble speaking/understanding visual images
Changes in mood/personality/normal routines
Losing things and losing ability to retrace steps
8. The cause?
Though the exact cause of Alzheimer’s is unknown, several
risk factors are apparent
Age Genetic Factors
Family History Cardiovascular Disease
Mild Cognitive Impairment Head trauma/brain injury
9. Treatments
There is no treatment for Alzheimer’s though there are
some treatments that can slow the process temporarily
Two new brain scan techniques can be used to show the
early stages of Alzheimer’s
Blood and Urine tests can confirm Alzheimer’s as well.
11. Men’s Health
Men are twice as likely to get Alzheimer’s than women are,
yet the exact reason is not known why.
High cholesterol and high blood pressure can lead to a
higher chance for Alzheimer’s. As men tend to have more
bad cholesterol we are at a higher risk.
12. Men vs. Women
Studies have shown that there are more cases of
Alzheimer’s in women, Men are twice as likely to get the
disease.
Of the 5.2 million American studies, 3.4 million were
women and 1.8 million were men.
Scientists believe the reason more women have the disease
is that even though men are more likely to get it, women are
more likely to outlive men and have more time to fully
develop Alzheimer’s or another form of Dementia.
13. My Recommendations
• Stay active, being active increases brain activity
• Watch diet, make sure to not eat too much fatty
foods
• Work on puzzles and other games to increase
brain function along side physical activity
