Dr. Ko will discuss what the research presented at the conference means for you and answer your questions about the new developments.
Ethanol (CH3CH2OH), or beverage alcohol, is a two-carbon alcohol
that is rapidly distributed in the body and brain. Ethanol alters many
neurochemical systems and has rewarding and addictive properties. It
is the oldest recreational drug and likely contributes to more morbidity,
mortality, and public health costs than all illicit drugs combined. The
5th edition of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders
(DSM-5) integrates alcohol abuse and alcohol dependence into a single
disorder called alcohol use disorder (AUD), with mild, moderate,
and severe subclassifications (American Psychiatric Association, 2013).
In the DSM-5, all types of substance abuse and dependence have been
combined into a single substance use disorder (SUD) on a continuum
from mild to severe. A diagnosis of AUD requires that at least two of
the 11 DSM-5 behaviors be present within a 12-month period (mild
AUD: 2–3 criteria; moderate AUD: 4–5 criteria; severe AUD: 6–11 criteria).
The four main behavioral effects of AUD are impaired control over
drinking, negative social consequences, risky use, and altered physiological
effects (tolerance, withdrawal). This chapter presents an overview
of the prevalence and harmful consequences of AUD in the U.S.,
the systemic nature of the disease, neurocircuitry and stages of AUD,
comorbidities, fetal alcohol spectrum disorders, genetic risk factors, and
pharmacotherapies for AUD.

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.

Anti ulcer drugs and their Advance pharmacology ||
Anti-ulcer drugs are medications used to prevent and treat ulcers in the stomach and upper part of the small intestine (duodenal ulcers). These ulcers are often caused by an imbalance between stomach acid and the mucosal lining, which protects the stomach lining.
||Scope: Overview of various classes of anti-ulcer drugs, their mechanisms of action, indications, side effects, and clinical considerations.
2. VASCULAR PIGMENTED LAYER The vascular pigmented layer, or uveal tract, consists, from back to front, of the choroids, the ciliary body, and the iris. . IRIS The iris is a thin, contractile, pigmented diaphragm with a central aperture (the pupil), it is suspended in the aqueous humor between the cornea and the lens. The periphery of the iris, which is attached to the anterior surface of the ciliary body is called the ciliary margin, or root of the iris. The pupil is surrounded by the pupillary margin. The iris, measuring about 12 mm in diameter, is thickest about 2mm from the pupillary margin and is thinnest at the ciliary margin.
3. The anterior surface of the lens is convex and presses lightly against the iris, causing it to bulge antreiorly. The pupil varies in diameter from 1 to 8mm, and in about 25% of normal subjects the pupils differ slightly in size on the 2 sides. The iris divides the space between the lens and the cornea into an anterior and a posterior chamber. The aqueous humor, formed by the ciliary processes in the posterior chamber, circulate through the pupil into the anterior chamber and finally exits into the sinus venosus sclerae at the iridocorneal angle.
4. The blue iris has less pigment in the melanocytes compared with the brown iris. The color results from the absorption of light, with long wavelengths and the reflection of the shorter blue waves that are seen by the observer.

9. Structure of the iris Microscopically, the iris consists of two layers: 1) the stroma, situated anteriorly and derived from mesenchyme, 2) two epithelial layers located posteriorly and derived from the neural ectoderm.
10. Structure of the iris The sphincter pupillae muscle is located in the pupillary zone of the iris. It forms a ring of smooth muscle fibers around the pupil, measuring about 1mm wide. The bundles of smooth muscle cells are separated by connective tissue that contains blood vessels and motor and sensory nerves. When the sphincter pupillae contracts, the pupil costricts.
11.
12. Ciliary body: The ciliary body is continuous posteriorly with the choroid and anteriorly with the peripheral margin of the iris. Considered as a whole, the ciliary body is a complete ring that runs around the inside of the anterior sclera. It measures about 6mm wide(6.5mm on the temporal side and 5.5mm on the nasal side) and extends forward to the scleral spur and backward to the ora serrata of the retina.
13. Choroid The choroid is a thin, soft, brown coat lining the inner surface of the sclera. It is extremely vascular. The choroid extends from the optic nerve posteriorly to the ciliary body anteriorly. It is thickest at the posterior pole(about 0.22 mm) and gradually thins anteriorly (about 0.1mm ). Its inner surface is smooth and firmly attached to the pigmented layer of the retina; its outer surface is roughened.
14. It is firmly attached to the sclera in the region of the optic nerve and where the posterior ciliary arteries and ciliary nerves enter the eye. It is also tethered to the sclera where the vortex veins leave the eyeball. Structure of the choroid may be divided into three layers: 1) the vessel layer, 2) the capillary layer, 3) Bruch’s membrane. Choroid
15. Its principal function is to nourish with its blood vessels the outer layers of the retina, it also serves to conduct many blood vessels forward to the anterior regions of the eye. Function of the choroid
16. It is inflammation of iris, ciliary body and choroid. Anterior uveitis is iridocyclitis, posterior uveitis is choroiditis. The known causes of uveitis may be classified as follows: A. Exogenous Infections;trauma, perforated corneal ulcer, surgery. B. Endogenous Infections. These include : Bacterial infections; tuberculosis, streptococcal infection, gonorrhea or syphilis. Viral infections; mumps, smallpox, influenza or herpes. Parasitic Infestations;toxoplasmosis and toxocara. Uveitis
17. C— Uveitis Secondary to an Ocular Pathology.—This may be subdivided into three categories : Uveitis of an Infective Nature —This caused by direct spread of infection from an ocular inflammation, suppurative keratitis or from a peri-ocular inflammation, e.g. orbital cellulitis. Uveitis of a Toxic Nature.—This is due to the presence of unusual ocular products in the eye as in: Intra-ocular neoplasm. lntra-ocular hemorrhage. Long-standing retinal detachment. Dislocated or subluxated lens. Uveitis of an Allergic Nanture — The uveal tract is often target for immunologic reactions, e.g. : Sympathetic ophthalmitis. Endophthalmitis phaco-anaphylactic uveitis.
18. D. —Uveitis Due to Bacterial Allergy. The two most classic examples are : Minute tuberculous focus of infection in the lung or a lymph node. Streptococcal focal infection commonly lodged in the teeth, sinuses, tonsils or prostate. E.—Uveitis Complicating General Diseases.—The following are common examples : 1. Ankylosing spondylitis. 2. Sarcoidosis. 3. Behcet's disease. 4. Vogt-Koyanagi syndrome.
19. A -ACUTE IRIDOCYCLITIS Symptoms 1.Pain.— The pain is due to to xic irritation of the sens ory nerve ending in the iris and to spasm of the sphincter pu pillae mu scle. 2. Photophobia — due to pupillary constriction when exposed to light 3. Lacrimation.— Reflex lacrimation occurs as a result of irritation of the sensory nerve endings in the iris.
20. 4. Blepharospasm. —This is the result of photophobia and lacrimation. 5. Mistness of Vision. —This is due to the presence of inflammatory exudates in the anterior chamber. The plasmoid aqueous which is high in its protein content contribute to the impairment of vision.
21. Signs The clinical signs of anterior uveitis vary considerable and depend on the type and acuteness of the inflammatory process and the uveal region preferentially affected. Signs of Iritis. —The essential features of acute iritis include : 1.— Hyperaemia and Circumcorneal Ciliary Injection.— 2. Flare due to Exudation in the Anterior Chamber. — 3. Blurring and Indistinctness of the Iris Pattern, leading to the appearance of a muddy iris
22.
23. 4. Constricted, Irregular and Sluggishly Reacting Pupil.— (a) Mechanical contraction caused by hyperaemia of the radially disposed iris vessels and oedema of the iris. (b) Irritation of the iris by toxic products causing contraction of its plain muscle fibres.
24.
25. Cyclitis. — : 1. Keratic Precipitates .— The leucocytes circulating in the exudate which comes from inflammed ciliary body pass through the pupil and adhere to the sticky corneal endothelium. 2. Copious Thick Exudate into the Anterior Chamber. — This is due to the abundant accumulation of cells in the aqueous and the vitreous
26. Exudation into the Vitreous. — Exudates from the inflamed ciliary body pass into the anterior vitreous which becomes hazy due to diffuse dust-like opacities. Intra-Ocular Pressure. — The tension is usually within normal, but a lowering of the ocular tension may be taken as an indication of long-standing involvement of the ciliary body.
27. B. -CHRONIC IRIDO-CYCLITIS Chronic irido-cyclitis is an extremely chronic disease characterized by considerable diminution of vision without obvious cause. It is liable to exacerbations with gradual and insidious formation of posterior synechiae. Clinical Features Dust-like opacities in the vitreous whose consistency has undergone some liquefaction due to defective nutrition. The presence of exudates and inflammatory cells i n the anterior chamber, which become evident as keratic precipitates on the corneal endothelium, and vitreous cavity. Tenderness on pressure over the ciliary body region. Mild ciliary injection involving the deeper vessels.
28. Band-Shaped Keratopathy: calcium deposition in the cornea. Formation of Posterior Synechiae: adhesion between iris and lens. Peripheral Anterior Synecchiae: adhesion between iris and cornea. Rubiosis iridis: neovascularization of the iris. Paches of Iris Atrophy: Secondary Glaucoma: due to synechiae Complications of Iridocyclitis Cataract: defect in lens nutrition. Cyclitic Membrane: organization of vitreous exudates. Vitreous Opacities: Dust-like opacities may form in the anterior part of the vitreous.

32. It is most difficult to make an aetiologic diagnosis of uveitis on clinical grounds because the morphologic features are not characteristic. Important clues regarding the probable diagnosis of uveitis are to be taken from the following clinical and laboratory investigations : 1. The onset and course of the disease. Diagnosis and Investigations of Uveitis 2. The present and the past ophthalmological and medical histories. 3. The clinical picture of the lesions. 4. General medical examination, particularly the chest and the joints, 5. Certain general laboratory investigations
33. 1. Treatment of the Cause. Treatment of Iridocyclitis 2. Symptomatic Treatment. a. Atropine.—to prevent synechiae, pain & photophobia b. Local Steroid Therapy. c. Local Hot Applications. d. Subconjunctival Gentamycin. —This may be necessary in severe pyogenic cases. e. An Eye Pad and a Bandage.—They keep the lids firmly closed over the eyes and thus provide rest and prevent photophobia.
34. a. Systemic Steroid Therapy, e.g. prednisolone and adrenocorticotrophic hormone ( ACTH ).—If the local steroid drops alone are not effective, the treatment is supplemented by a course of systemic steroids to suppress the inflammatory process. 3. General Treatment. b. Systemic Antibiotics and Chemotherapy.—When given alone, they have been found unsuccessful in arresting the process of uveitis, because the disease is an inflammation rather than an infection.
35. 1. Secondary Glaucoma. —This is treated as follow: Carbonic anhydrase inhibitors, hydrocortisone and atropine are instilled locally, in order to allay the inflammatory reaction. Paracentesis should be performed if the above medical treatment fails to lower the ocular tension. It produces flushing of the eye with fresh aqueous containing a high antibody titer. It may be repeated every 2-3 days. C. Analgesics.— Aspirin may be required in some cases. 4. Treatment of Complications.
36. 4. Phthisis Bulbi. —A blind painful eye should be enucleated. 2. Annular Posterior Synechiae. —A complete iridectomy or laser iridotomy 3. Total Posterior Synechiae with Complicated Cataract. —Removal of the lens is indicated after rupturing the posterior synechiae with an iris repositor .
37. A-SUPPURATTVE CHOROIDITIS Suppurative choroiditis usually follows the introduction of infecting micro-organisms from outside or via the blood stream leading to endophthalmitis or panophthalmitis. Exogenous Causes.—Suppuration may follow : 1. Perforating wounds of the eye. 2. Perforating corneal ulcer. 3. Postoperative infection. Endogenous Causes.—Suppuration may follow : 1. Metastatic infection in pyemia. 2. Purpural septicaemia. 3. Cerebrospinal meningitis. POSTERIOR UVEITIS INFLAMMATIONS OF THE CHOROID Inflammations of the choroid (Choroiditis) occur in two forms : A —Suppurative Choroiditis.—Two types are generally recognized : Endophthalmitis, i.e. inflammation of the internal structures of the eye. Panophthalmitis, i.e. inflammation of all the tissues of the eye. B. —Non-Suppurative Choroiditis.—This has been classified into : Granulomatous Choroiditis. Non-Granulomatous Choroiditis (Exudative Uveitis).
38. Signs: The eye is severely injected and red. The conjunctiva becomes chemotic. Keratic precipitates on the back of the cornea. The aqueous becomes turbid with many cells circulating through it. ENDOPHTHALMITIS Endophthalmitis is a purulent inflammation of the entire uveal tract, although the adjacent tissues may be secondarily affected. Symptoms. —The patient usually complains of severe irritation in the eye. Excessive lacrimation, photophobia and marked-diminution of vision are very common.
39. Intensive local and systemic antibiotic therapy must be given. Lo cal atr opine, steroid and a pplication of_hea t are very useful. It may be necessary to give systemic steroid in an attempt to suppress the inflammatory reaction. Vitrectomy and intraocular injection of antibiotics. When perception of light is lost, enucleation of the eyeball should be consider. Treatment
40. Signs: Swelling of the eyelids with intense congestion of the eyeball. A small degree of proptosis. Chemosis of the conjunctiva. Haziness of the cornea. Anterior chamber and vitreous filled with pus. Loss of accurate projection of light, due to retinal detachment. The eyeball may finally perforate or the pus may escape through the anterior ciliary region and eventually the eyeball shrinks. PANOPHTHALMITIS I s an intense purulent inflammation of the three coats of the eye. The eyeball is filled with pus, and the entire uveal tract is infiltrated with inflammatory cells, mainly polymorphonuclear leucocytes. Symptoms: The symptoms are usually severe and include : 1. Fever and general febrile symptoms. 2. Headache and vomiting. 3. Severe pain in the eye. 4. Loss of vision.
41. Early use of intensive systemic and local antibiotic therapy may prevent the panophthalmitis. The treatment may be supplemented with systemic steroids to reduce inflammatory reactions. The administration o f analgesic s to control pain, and the application o f local hea t to improve the blood flow are usually recommended in severe cases. Loss of light perception is an indication fo r eviscerati on of the eyeball. Treatment
