Adipose tissue as an endocrine organ:
Adipose tissue has been recognized as the quantitatively most important energy store of the human body for many years, in addition to its functions as mechanical and thermal insulator. During the last 10 years, adipose tissue has come into focus as an endocrine organ important for development of many diseases related to obesity including insulin resistance, type 2 diabetes, dyslipidemia, hypertension and cardiovascular disease. Adipose tissue secretes a variety of bioactive peptides that play important roles in insulin action, energy homeostasis, inflammation, and cell growth. These secretory proteins from the adipose organ are named adipokines and have many physiological effects on different organs including the brain, bone, reproductive organs, liver, skeletal muscles, immune cells and blood vessels. Adipokines may locally regulate fat mass by modulating adipocyte size/number or angiogenesis and inversely increased fat mass leads to dysregulation of adipocyte functions.
Infertility is defined as the inability of a couple to conceive after at least one year of regular unprotected intercourse.
Male infertility refers to a male's inability to cause pregnancy in a fertile female.

A good number of thyroid disorder patients are either undiagnosed and or untreated
Thyroid disorder in pregnancy- Rate high
As a sound thyroid functioning status is crucial for growth, development in children; reproduction, psychological and general wellbeing in adults, we must be proactive in screening, diagnosing and treating our patients.
Over the past several years it has been proved that maternal thyroid disorder influence the outcome of mother and fetus, during and also after pregnancy. The most frequent thyroid disorder in pregnancy is maternal hypothyroidism. It is associated with fetal loss, placental abruptions, pre-eclampsia, preterm delivery and reduced intellectual function in the offspring.1 In pregnancy, overt hypothyroidism is seen in 0.2% cases2 and sub clinical hypothyroidism in 2.3% cases3. Fetal loss, fetal growth restriction, pre-eclampsia and preterm delivery are the usual complications of overt hyperthyroidism (low TSH and high T3, T4) seen in 2 of 1000 pregnancies whereas mild or sub clinical hyperthyroidism (suppressed TSH alone) is seen in
1.7% of pregnancies and not associated with adverse outcomes4. Autoimmune positive euthyroid pregnancy shows doubling of incidence of miscarriage and preterm delivery. Worldwide more than 20 million people develop neurological sequel due to intra uterine, iodine deprivation5. Other problems of thyroid disorders in pregnancy are post partum thyroiditis, thyroid nodules and cancer, hyper emesis gravidarum etc. Debates and disputes persist regarding several protocol and management plan in this specific spectrum of diseases.
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

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

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

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.

You can think of your risk of developing a disease as a triangle, with your genetics, environment, and behavior all influencing your risk. Genetics is part of your family history. You might also share an environment and behaviors with your family. [Ask class] Can you think of some examples of how your behavior might influence your risk of developing a disease? [Some examples are smoking tobacco and lung cancer, physical inactivity and heart disease] [Ask class] What is your environment? That’s right, it’s the world around you. Can you think of some examples of how your environment might influence your risk of developing a disease? [Two examples are working in a coal mine and developing lung disease, and chemical exposure and cancer]
Let’s think about how we can lower our risk. [Ask students]: If you are at high risk for lung cancer, what risk factors can you change to prevent getting it? How could you change them? [Answer: you could change your behavior by quitting smoking]
The chart shows the approximate calories spent per hour by a 100-, 150-, and 200- pound person doing a particular activity.
Are you interested in knowing how many calories you require per day?
There are many websites that can do the calculations for you.
For example, the American Cancer Society (ACS) has a site: http://www.cancer.org/docroot/PED/content/PED_6_1x_Calorie_Calculator.asp
The ACS site indicates the number of calories that are needed per day to maintain your current weight.
Another example is the USDA’s MyPyramid site: http://www.mypyramid.gov/
Simply enter age, gender, and level of physical activity to determine kcal needs
You should check with your doctor before beginning an exercise program if you:
Are a man older than age 40 or a woman older than age 50
Have had a heart attack
Have a family history of heart-related problems before age 55
Have heart, lung, liver or kidney disease
Feel pain in your chest, joints, or muscles during physical activity
Have high blood pressure, high cholesterol, diabetes, arthritis, osteoporosis, or asthma
Have had joint replacement surgery
Smoke
Are overweight or obese
Tale medication to manage a chronic condition
Have an untreated joint or muscle injury, or persistent symptoms after a joint or muscle injury
Are pregnant
Unsure of your health status.
Exercise interventions have also been shown to be effective in the management of diabetes.
Both aerobic and resistance training have been shown to be of benefit for the control of diabetes; however, resistance training may have a greater benefits than aerobic training on glycemic control.
In a cohort study, it was found that physically inactive men with established diabetes had a 1.7-fold increased risk of premature death when compared to physically active men with diabetes.
Regular physical activity may be associated with health benefits to patients with established cancer.
Two recent studies involving cancer patients (breast and colon) indicated that increased self-reported physical activity was associated with a decreased reoccurrence of cancer and a decreased risk of death from cancer.
Another investigation revealed a reduction of 26-40% in the relative risk of cancer-related death and recurrence of breast cancer among the most active women when compared to the least active
Several longitudinal studies have examined the effects of exercise training on bone health in children, adolescents and young, middle-aged, and older adults.
Although the numbers of studies and total participants are small when compared to studies found in the cardiovascular literature, the results are rather compelling and they indicate that routine physical activity, especially weight-bearing and impact exercise, prevents bone loss associated with aging.
