Osteoarthritis is a common joint disease that affects older individuals. It involves the breakdown of cartilage in the joints. Symptoms include joint stiffness, swelling, and pain that worsens with use. X-rays can show cartilage loss and bone changes in the joints. Treatment focuses on education, activity modification, weight loss, medications like acetaminophen and NSAIDs, steroid injections, and sometimes surgery for severe cases. Lifestyle changes and less impactful exercises can help manage symptoms.
Osteoarthritis is a chronic degenerative disorder of synovial joints in which there is progressive softening and erosion/disintegration of the articular cartilage. In the presentation, I will deal in detail about the condition in every dimension with the most recent evidence.

Osteoarthritis is the most common form of arthritis, affecting millions of people worldwide. It occurs when the protective cartilage that cushions the ends of your bones wears down over time. Although osteoarthritis can damage any joint, the disorder most commonly affects joints in your hands, knees, hips and spine. A type of arthritis that occurs when flexible tissue at the ends of bones wears down.
The wearing down of the protective tissue at the ends of bones (cartilage) occurs gradually and worsens over time.
Joint pain in the hands, neck, lower back, knees or hips is the most common symptom.
Medication, physiotherapy and sometimes surgery can help reduce pain and maintain joint movement.

The most prevalent kind of arthritis is osteoarthritis, also known as a degenerative joint disease (DJD). As people get older, they are more prone to acquire osteoarthritis. Changes in osteoarthritis often develop gradually over several years, with few exceptions. Dr. David Greene Arizona discusses osteoarthritis in this presentation.

Ayurvedic treatment for arthritis & osteoarthritis pptpranjalnaik7
Arthritis is a disease that causes inflammation in the joints and can affect any joint in the body. It is a degenerative condition which means it will get worse over time. There are many different treatment options available, including traditional Western medicine and alternative treatments like Ayurvedic treatments.
Ayurveda is an ancient Indian holistic system of natural healing that has been used for thousands of years to treat various diseases such as arthritis. The treatment mainly consists of massages, dietary changes, and lifestyle changes.
Osteoarthritis is the most common form of arthritis. It is caused by the breakdown of cartilage, Ayurveda has the best treatment for all type of arthritis.

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.
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
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.

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

5. What is osteoarthritis?
is a disease affecting the joints
which is very treatable.
It is rarely deforming or crippling,
although it can be painful if not
treated. Osteoarthritis is very
common and affects almost
everybody as they get older. The
older you get, the more likely you
are to have it, and around eight out
of ten people over the age of 50
are affected.
6. In the hand, it typically affects the base of the thumb ,then the
finger joints. Women are affected more than men.
Note in the xray at right that the thumb base joint is narrow, with
almost no cartilage left, and the two bones are rubbing against
each other.
7.
8. At the earliest stages of osteoarthritis, your joints
look like this:
11. Patients with this level of osteoarthritis usually have
pain most of the time:
12. This is the end stage of disease. Note that there is no
cartilage left on the end of the bone:
13.
14. What are the symptoms of
osteoarthritis?
• The hallmarks of osteoarthritis are joint stiffness,
swelling, and pain.
•This often improves with
light activity, but is usually
worse again after forceful
gripping or pinching, or
after a period of rest.
15.
16. Who gets osteoarthritis?
• Many people think osteoarthritis should come
from a long history of hard work, but hard labor
does not seem to be very related.
•Osteoarthritis can be due to trauma
such as an old fracture, but it is
usually just due to the effects of
aging coupled with some hereditary
contribution.
17. How is osteoarthritis diagnosed?
• The diagnosis is made by listening to the patient
and by examining the patient. Most patients will
have a history of slowing increasing pain,
stiffness, and swelling over a period of years.
Sometimes there is a farily sudden onset of
symptoms, usually associated with a single
episode of trauma (typically a fall) or a period of
overuse (weeding the garden, say, or packing to
move). An xray examination confirms the
diagnosis. Often there will be no correlation
between the amount of pain and the severity of
the arthritis as shown by the xray.
18.
19. What does the x-ray show?
The xray typically shows some joint space narrowing,
that is, the white shape of the bones are closer
together than they normally are. The bone along the
joint is usually whiter (called "sclerosis") and may
have little points of bone growing out (called
"osteophytes"). There may be holes in the bone (
called "cysts") and the bones may be starting to slide
out of alignment (called "subluxation").
20. How is osteoarthritis treated?
• 1 Diagnosis
• 2 Patient education
• 3 Activity modification
• 4 Anti-inflammatory medication
• 5 Steroid injection
• 6 Surgery
21.
22. Patient Education
• Once the patient understands
what is going on, they can take
charge of managing their
condition. Osteoarthritis cannot be
made to go away; getting younger
is the only thing that will do that
(we are working on it!).
Osteoarthritis is not "cured", but
managed. Patient involvement in
that management is key.
23. Activity Modification and
Conservative care
• No matter the severity or location of OA, conservative measures
such as weight control, appropriate rest and exercise, and the use
of mechanical support devices are usually beneficial. In OA of the
knees, knee braces, a cane, or a walker can be helpful for walking
and support. Regular exercise, if possible, in the form of walking or
swimming,and not giving strong impacts is encouraged. Applying
local heat before, and cold packs after exercise, can help relieve
pain and inflammation, as can relaxation techniques. Heat — often
moist heat — eases inflammation and swelling, and may improve
circulation, which has a healing effect on the local area. Weight
loss can relieve joint stress and may delay progression[citation
needed]. Proper advice and guidance by a health care provider is
important in OA management, enabling people with this condition
to improve their quality of life.
24.
25. Medical treatment
• . start with acetamenophenThe first medication
that you should try is acetamenophen
(parasytamol). The maximum amount you can take
per day according to the FDA is 4000 mg. It will not
upset your stomach the way that voltarin or aspirin
do, and will help to offset the pain of minor
arthritis.
• The next class of medications that should be tried
are called non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, or
NSAID's
• If you have a history of stomach ulcers, COX-2
inhibitiors such as Celebrex.
26. Steroid injections
• Steroid injections can be very helpful to calm
down a very painful joint. These are not the
systemic steroids that cause road rage,
osteonecrosis, and all the other bad things
you have heard about steroids. These are
highly localized treatments of steroids, which
are a class of substances that your own body
makes to calm down unwanted or excessive
inflammation
27. Surgery
• is reserved for last. It is only for patients
whose osteoarthritis is so bad that they
cannot manage their disease with activity
modification, anti-inflammatory medication,
and steroid injections. Indications for surgery
generally involve patients who are so
miserable with their arthritis that they cannot
do the things in life that they want to do.
