Many complementary therapies, used along with conventional medicine, can support cancer treatments, reduce some of the adverse effects of cancer treatment, ease tension and pain, and contribute to overall health. This is known as integrative medicine. Integrative medicine can be a part of your plan throughout the entire treatment and survivorship experience. In this webinar, we will talk about how integration can be helpful to you after a colorectal cancer diagnosis and your journey forward.
Presented by Dr. Lisa Corbin: a board-certified internist, Associate Professor in the Department of Internal Medicine at the University of Colorado School of Medicine. In 2001, she helped the University of Colorado Hospital establish the Center for Integrative Medicine (TCFIM) and has served as the Medical Director ever since.
Nutrition is an important part of any cancer treatment plan, especially for those individuals who are undergoing colorectal cancer treatment and have had surgery to remove part of the colon. Another important consideration for patients who have had surgery to remove part of the colon is avoiding a bowel obstruction. Knowing which foods you should and shouldn’t eat can be a helpful part of the treatment and the surgery recovery process. In this webinar, we will talk about how nutrition and avoiding bowel blockages can be helpful to you after a colorectal cancer treatment procedure and what foods to eat as we enter the holiday season.

Ayurvedic medicine is a system of traditional Hindu medicine native to the Indian subcontinent. Contemporary practices derived from Ayurvedic traditions are a type of alternative medicine. Cancer is a term used for diseases in which abnormal cells divide without control and are able to invade other tissues.People with cancer often use touch therapies such as massage and aromatherapy. Many people say these therapies help them to cope better with cancer and its treatment. Research is looking into whether some herbs or plant treatments used in Ayurvedic medicine could help to prevent or treat cancer.
Benefits of Physical Activities (PA) in Cancer SurvivorsRajat Chauhan
On 4th March 2012, I had the privelege of talking at Asian Breast Cancer Conference. But I wasn't planning on going there and be a yes man.
I took the oncology fraternity to task. If they have known for a long time that exercise and physical activity reduces cancer risk by 25-50% and side effects in survivors from inactivity is as bad as disease itself, then why don't they talk and promote more about it. Only a quarter bring up exercise to their patients. I was looking to get a reaction, whether it be a shoe thrown at me or saying, wow... Let's work together on this... But the audience was very sedated... courtesy the pharmaceutical industry that sponsors conferences like these. There was no response. I finished my talk by saying "my role model is Lance Armstrong, a man who did amazing things in world of sports after he was diagnosed, treated and then survived cancer."
Enjoy the presentation.

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.

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
Tom Selleck Health: A Comprehensive Look at the Iconic Actor’s Wellness Journeygreendigital
Tom Selleck, an enduring figure in Hollywood. has captivated audiences for decades with his rugged charm, iconic moustache. and memorable roles in television and film. From his breakout role as Thomas Magnum in Magnum P.I. to his current portrayal of Frank Reagan in Blue Bloods. Selleck's career has spanned over 50 years. But beyond his professional achievements. fans have often been curious about Tom Selleck Health. especially as he has aged in the public eye.
Follow us on: Pinterest
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
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

8. Definitions
CAM
Complementary / Alternative Medicine
Therapies not historically part of
conventional medicine
Chiropractic, acupuncture, massage, herbals…
Lifestyle medicine
Use of stress reduction, exercise, nutrition
for health benefits
Integrative medicine
CAM therapies and lifestyle approaches
coordinated with conventional medical
treatments
9. Who’s Using CAM?
Nearly 50% of general public uses CAM
70 – 85% of patients with cancer used at least one
CAM treatment
80% used spiritual practices
63% used herbs / supplements
60% used movement / physical therapies
Reasons for use:
Feel hopeful (73%)
Boost immune system (63%)
Want control (38 - 44%)
Prevent recurrence (43%)
Aid conventional therapy / treat cancer (28 – 38%)
10. Case Vignettes
• MS, a 54 year old woman with metastatic colon
cancer. Was able to keep it “in check” with
chemotherapy, but was so sick every 3 weeks for 1.5
weeks that she had to quit work as a medical
technician. She came to us stating it was a last
resort, she was planning to take a “last hurrah” trip to
Greece. After discussion, she agreed to try
acupuncture before chemotherapy, and this worked
so well for her that she was able to continue getting
the life sustaining chemo and even went back to work
for four years
11. Case Vignettes
• MK, a 60 year old female runner, had colon cancer
treated with chemotherapy, radiation, and surgery.
Was dismayed that after treatment she was still
fatigued and could “only” run 3 miles (prior 10+). We
discussed exercise and local programs for cancer
survivors, she worked with a dietician to improve diet,
she worked with a psychologist on mind/body
strategies for fatigue management. Gradually she
was able to increase her tolerance and was back to
running half-marathons within 18 months.
12. Case Vignettes
• SS, a 62 year old male with rectal cancer just starting
treatment with chemotherapy. Family insisted that he
take herbs and change his diet; some told him the
chemotherapy was toxic and “would kill him, not the
cancer”. He was understandably anxious about
treatment and by family recommendations. He had
persistent pain at the site of a surgical procedure.
We suggested working with the psychologist for
anxiety reduction and how to respond to well-meaning
family. He began massage therapy for
anxiety and pain reduction. He discussed
supplements and diet with a dietician. He used
acupuncture during chemotherapy and came through
his treatment better than he had expected.
13. Using an Integrative Approach
Avoid harmful practices
Don’t overlook lifestyle / self-care
Sleep
Exercise
Mind / body techniques
Nutrition
Consider safe, plausible CAM
therapies
Herbs / supplements
Acupuncture
Massage
14. Harmful Therapies
• Colonic hydrotherapy
• Chelation therapy
• Ionic foot baths
• Restrictive diets
• Some supplements
• Financial toxicity!
• Anything used IN PLACE OF a curative
conventional treatment
17. Detoxification
Human body is evolved to get rid of toxins
Skin
Lungs
Colon
Kidney
Liver
Be natural – let the body do what it’s good
at! Support the processes:
Drink plenty of fluids
Exercise
Don’t put a lot of toxins in in the first place!
19. Why Lifestyle Approaches?
Gives you more control over your
health and an active role in your care
Low / no cost
Can help current cancer-related
concerns, also to help prevent future
illness
20. Get Some Sleep!
Restorative sleep improves pain, fatigue,
mood
Sleep deprived “normals” develop chronic
pain
Links: breast cancer, weight gain
Behavioral approaches:
Don’t eat, drink, exercise just before bed
Avoid late day caffeine, too much alcohol
Get consistent exercise earlier in the day
Pay attention to room environment
Establish consistent sleep times
Get out of bed if not tired
Don’t nap
21. Exercise for Prevention
• Primary prevention
– Most versus least active = 27% reduction in
colon cancer
– Being generally active likely helps, too
23. Exercise During Treatment
• Prevents weight gain
• Decreases fatigue
• Improves stamina
• Helps balance
• Decreases anemia during
radiation
• What to “take” for my
immune system?
EXERCISE!
24. Exercise Can Help Symptoms
• Improves pain in general
• Helps memory and concentration
• Improves sleep, depression
• Good for the rest of life, too:
– Helps high blood pressure, diabetes,
cholesterol, improves bone mass
Unlike late night TV claims, this
product CAN help you lose 20
pounds and improve your sex life!
25. Simple Exercise Prescription:
FIT
F requency
Exercise every day
I ntensity
Break a sweat; increase difficulty of exercise
T ime
Start with 5 minutes daily, increase by 1
minute daily each week; goal 30 minutes
(Final goal - 30 min vigorous or 60 min moderate activity daily)
26. Why Mind-body?
Help restore locus of control
Mind-body therapies are generally safe
Perception of symptoms requires
processing by the mind; mind-body
therapies can alter perception
Decrease pain, stress, anxiety
Often covered by insurance
27. Mind-body Therapies
Cognitive Behavioral Tx
Relaxation techniques
Breathing techniques
Biofeedback / heart math
Art, music, pet therapy
Mindfulness / Meditation
Imagery / visualization
Yoga / tai chi
Hypnosis
28. Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction
• Promotes relaxation through nonjudgmental
awareness of sensations, experiences, and
reactions: being “present”, “in the moment”
• Randomized wait-list vs MBSR in 107 cancer
patients
– Improvement in mood and stress
– Effect maintained 6 months after program ended
29. Yoga
• Combines physical movement, breath
control, and meditation
• Promoted for patients with cancer
• Studied in breast cancer; recent study in
Germany just completed for colon
cancer
30. Support Groups
• Andersen and colleagues RCT
– psychologist-led group support
resulted in improvements in QoL, in
aspects of immune function, and in
life expectancy.
Cancer 2008; 113: 3450 – 8.
31.
32. Diet / Nutrition
Estimated percentages of cancer due to
selected factors:
• Diet* 35-60%
• Tobacco 30%
• Air & water pollution 1-5%
• Alcohol 3%
• Radiation 3%
• Medications 2%
* Primarily obesity
35. Specific Dietary Factors
• Fruits/ vegetables
• Inconsistency in studies showing protection
• 50% reduction in one study, no association
in another
• If valuable, probably most of risk reduction is in
increasing over 100 g / day (easily get this in
reasonably well balanced diet – apple is 200 g!)
• Red meat / animal fat / cholesterol
• Increased risk 3x for highest intake vs lowest intact
• Fiber
• 4 large studies show decreased risk, 2 no
association
36. Nutrition: Summary
• Plant based diet, less
meat and dairy
• 5 + fruits / vegetables
• 7 + high fiber complex
carbohydrates
• Low saturated/trans fat
• Less n-6, more n-3 FA
• Limited alcohol
Excellent resource: AICR
37.
38. Real Nutrition Questions
Should I take
supplements?
Do I have to
eat organic?
Is soy good for me?
Does “sugar
feed the tumor”?
39. Herbs and Supplements
Three types of medicines:
Prescription (Rx)
Over-the-counter (OTC)
Dietary Supplements
Unlike Rx and OTC, supplements:
Are not required to prove safety, efficacy
Are not required to enforce quality control
Can vary in concentration of ingredients
Over 60% of cancer patients use
supplements
40. General Advice: Supplements
• Natural safe
• Use extra caution with prescriptions
• Use trustworthy resources for information
– Health food store, internet notoriously suspect
– Good: NMCD, ODS
• If you choose to take a supplement:
– Look for a well-labeled brand
– Avoid combination products, MLM sales
– Watch for red flags:
– Direct mail, infomercial, ads disguised as news articles, back
of the magazine ads, testimonials
– Claims a “cure”
– “Secret ingredients”, “one manufacturer”
41. Manufacturers More Likely to
Produce Quality Products
Nature’s Way
Nature’s Made
Nature’s Bounty
Costco (Kirkland)
Walmart (Equiline)
Phytopharmica
Puritan’s Pride
42. In General:
Avoid Supplements During Treatment
• Antioxidants may decrease effect of
some chemo, radiation
• Some supplements directly inhibit
some chemotherapy (St. John’s wort)
• Some supplements may increase risk
of bleeding during surgery or interfere
with anesthesia
43. Specific Supplements
• Consider:
– Omega 3 fatty acids (fish oils): anti-inflammatory
– Glutamine
– Probiotics (decrease diarrhea, may break
down carcinogens)
– Ginger (for nausea)
– Melatonin (consider if also sleep deprived!)
– Other chinese herbals may improve
response rate according to 2012 Cochrane
review
44. Acupuncture
Chinese Medicine Background
Health = balance of yin and yang
Qi = energy force created by interaction
of yin and yang
Meridians = channels that carry qi throughout the
body; each corresponds with a specific organ
Excess, deficiency, or stagnant flow of qi results in
disease
Examples of TCM diagnoses:
Yin deficiency and yang predominance with reduced kidney
qi
Stomach qi rebelling
45. Acupuncture
Western Medicine Background
Osler, 19th century
“best treatment for lumbago”
James Reston, China, 1971
Biological effects
Local nerve activation
Endorphins, ACTH, endogenous opioids (reversal
of analgesia with naloxone)
SPECT scanning: increased activity and
reversal of asymmetry in chronic pain
patients in thalamic and prefrontal cortex
during acupuncture over baseline
46.
47. General Advice: Acupuncture
Acupuncture is generally safe
Adverse events: minor or rare (pain, bleeding,
fatigue)
Disposable needles, alcohol wipes avoid infection
