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!

Lung Cancer: Artificial Intelligence, Synergetics, Complex System Analysis, S...Oleg Kshivets
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.

4. Introduction
Most sexual problems during pregnancy are rooted in the couple’s
wrong attitudes, misconceptions and misunderstandings about the
physical and emotional changes during pregnancy.
SNGI approach to sexual activity during pregnancy promotes
acceptance of the normal functioning of bodies and emotions &
leads to a risk-free approach to highly pleasurable sexual practice.
However, there are a lot of uncertainties about safe sexual practice
during pregnancy that need clarification and that are even common
among health care professionals.

6. Myths about sex and pregnancy
Sex can be harmful or painful during pregnancy.
Penetration harms the fetus.
Sex during pregnancy can lead to pre-term labor
The baby will know or feel the parents having sex.
4/6/2023 Prepared By Natnael .D(MSc.) 6
7. Truth
The baby will not be affected by the penetration of a penis.
Baby, has no idea what Mom and Dad are doing
Studies did not find an association, between pre term labor & sex (in
normal px).
Baby is well protected by a cushion of fluid in the womb.
NB-Sex will not harm the baby at any stage during a typical,
uncomplicated pregnancy.

9. Possible benefits..
Better orgasms. Increased blood flow to the genitals increase
number of more powerful orgasms for pregnant women.
A boost to the immune system. Sex increases IgA which is an
antibody that can keep her from a lot of infections .
Bonding between partners. Some couples find that sexual
activity during pregnancy brings them closer together/help
them to stay closer/.
Increased happiness. Orgasms release endorphins that can help
mother and baby feel happy and relaxed.

11. When is sex unsafe during
pregnancy.
Previous preterm birth/risk of../.
Unexplained vaginal bleeding
Leaking amniotic fluid
Placenta previa
Incompetent cervix
History or risk of miscarriage.
Pregnancy with twins
Women who have the above health complications should talk to
their health provider before engaging in sex:
NB- If her pregnancy is considered to be high risk, it may need more
cautiousness than other women.
4/6/2023 Prepared By Natnael .D(MSc.) 11
12. Effect of pregnancy on
sex life/drive/?
Pregnancy affects people’s sex drives in different ways and
there is no typical response.
In majority of women s boost of hormones and increased
blood flow to the genitals increase sex drive, particularly in
the second trimester.
4/6/2023 Prepared By Natnael .D(MSc.) 12
13. Details at each trimester
First trimester
The first 3 months of pregnancy are often accompanied by
physical symptoms such as feeling tired, nauseated, soreness in
the breasts and the can make sex seem tiresome that can
lower their interest in sex.
4/6/2023 Prepared By Natnael .D(MSc.) 13
14. Second trimester
Second trimester, the nausea, fatigue and breast tenderness
are much more manageable.
Women blood volume increase , and most of that blood flow is
directed below the waist line.
Their belly is growing but it's still small enough to comfortably
engage in sexual activity.
Some women find the increased blood flow increases their
ability to have an orgasm even more than once.
NB-Majority of women even have more desire for sex than usual
or non pregnant state particularly in second tx!
4/6/2023 Prepared By Natnael .D(MSc.) 14
15. Third trimester
Third trimester * Toward the end of pregnancy, growing
belly and the anticipation of childbirth and raising your
new baby mostly reduce women's interest in sex.
4/6/2023 Prepared By Natnael .D(MSc.) 15
16. Which appropriate sex positions during
pregnancy?
Positions that work before pregnancy and early in pregnancy
can be uncomfortable or even unsafe at later stages of the
baby's development.
Woman should avoid lying flat on her back after the fourth
month of pregnancy.
During the later stages of pregnancy, people should choose
positions that do not put pressure on the pregnant belly
4/6/2023 Prepared By Natnael .D(MSc.) 16
17. How soon can they have sex
after giving birth?
All post partal mothers need time to heal and recover after
giving birth & should allow time for the body to recover,
postpartum bleeding to stop.
Typically, it takes at least 4 weeks after delivery before a
woman feels comfortable ,& ready for sex physically &
Psychologically .
4/6/2023 Prepared By Natnael .D(MSc.) 17
18. Summary
Sex will not harm the baby & mother at any stage during a typical, uncomplicated
pregnancy.
The baby is protected by strong uterus muscles, amniotic fluid, and a mucus plug
that develops around the cervix.
NB-Sex is normal activity during normal pregnancy.
Recommendation
Professional
Providing sexual health services & counseling during pregnancy & post partum are
necessary at health clinics particularly during ANC visit.
