This document provides information about psychosis, including its symptoms, causes, and effective treatment options. It summarizes that psychosis causes people to perceive or interpret things differently than others around them. Common symptoms include hallucinations and delusions. Early treatment is most effective and the sooner someone seeks treatment, the more likely they are to recover well. Ignoring symptoms can lead to problems like hospitalization or incarceration, while early treatment programs provide medication, therapy and support for a better outcome.
Schizophrenia is a psychotic disorder. This mental condition can manifest itself in a variety of ways. The predominant difficulties associated with schizophrenia are related to a person's thinking, which is unusual or bizarre. Because the person's thinking is intermittently disordered, a person with schizophrenia may have a variety of behaviors that appear odd or strange to others. In addition, the person's speech is irrational or disjointed.

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

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.

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

2. • Understand what psychosis is
• Be able to spot the early warning signs
• Know how to help someone get help
AFTER THIS SHORT PRESENTATION, YOU WILL:
4. SO WHAT IS PSYCHOSIS?
Psychosis is a mental health problem that causes people to perceive or
interpret things differently from those around them. This might involve
hallucinations or delusions.
5. IT’S A YOUNG PERSON’S DISEASE
• Most mental illnesses are chronic diseases of the young
• Symptoms commonly first appear in people age 16-25
35 85% OF PEOPLE SUFFERING FROM
PSYCHOTIC ILLNESSES DEVELOPED
THIS BEFORE THEY TURNED 35
6. SO WHAT ARE THE COMMON CAUSES OF PSYCHOSIS?
• mental illnesses (e.g. schizophrenia)
• medical illnesses (e.g. epilepsy)
• substances: such as alcohol or drugs
7. JUST LIKE ANY OTHER MEDICAL PROBLEM
• People suffering from psychosis did nothing to “cause” their disease
• It requires treatment just like any other illness or injury
• The sooner someone gets treatment the more likely they are to get better
8. THE KEY TO SEEKING HELP IS UNDERSTANDING SYMPTOMS AND SIGNS
• Hallucinations - seeing or hearing things that aren’t there
• Delusions - believing things that aren’t true, and are often impossible
• Thought Disorder - trouble putting thoughts in order or keeping track of usual tasks
• Lack of insight and self-awareness
The combination of hallucinations and
delusional thinking can often severely disrupt
perception, thinking, emotion and behavior.
9. PSYCHOSIS SYMPTOMS - HALLUCINATIONS
• Sight – may see colors and shapes, or people or
animals that aren't there
• Sounds - hear indistinct noises or voices that
may be angry or critical
• Smell – usually a strange or unpleasant odor
• Taste – some people with psychosis have
complained of having a constant unpleasant
taste in their mouth
10. SIGNS OF PSYCHOSIS
Watch for changes in behavior such as:
• withdrawing from usual activities with friends
• spacing out or falling behind in tasks
• social isolation
12. SIGNS IN SCHOOL
• Falling asleep in class
• Struggling with basic work
• Paying less attention to personal appearance and hygiene
13. WHAT TO DO IF YOU SEE THE SIGNS
If you believe you see the signs of psychotic disorder in
someone you know then they need your help.
IF YOUR FRIEND WAS HURTING
YOU’D CALL A DOCTOR
14. WHAT IF PEOPLE TREATED PHYSICAL ILLNESS LIKE MENTAL ILLNESS?
15. TOO MANY YOUNG PEOPLE, AND THOSE AROUND THEM,
IGNORE THE SYMPTOMS OF PSYCHOSIS AND AVOID GETTING NECESSARY TREATMENT
16.
17.
18. Treatment is effective. The sooner treatment is started,
the better the recovery.
MYTH:
TREATMENT DOESN’T WORK
#1
19. Don’t believe the scary things you see in movies.
Treatment is safe and comfortable.
MYTH:
TREATMENT IS SCARY AND PAINFUL
#2
20. Early treatment often happens in an office. The patient
comes in for treatment and then goes home again.
MYTH:
TREATMENT MEANS BEING LOCKED IN A HOSPITAL
#3
