Basic information for discussion with a healthcare professional is provided here together with some background:
• An enlargement or the presence of tumors in the gland below a man’s bladder that produces fluid for semen ie, the prostate, may suggest benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) or prostate cancer
o Almost 8% of new cancer cases worldwide are attributed to this highly curable disease (proportion of patients surviving after 5 years = 98.9%)
o In the USA alone, prostate cancer is the most common non-skin cancer, diagnosed more often in African-American (1 in 5 cases) than white men (1 in 6 cases)
o Prostate cancer is strongly correlated with age, starting at about 50 years old and rising over the ensuing decades
o While debates over under- or over-treatment of prostate cancer continue, it is clear that management of the disease costs the USA an aggregate annual loss in productivity of $3.0 billion
o Moreover, prostate cancer is the third-leading cause of cancer-related deaths in the USA, mainly due to advanced or metastatic disease
In 1982, French physician R. Virag announced that the papaverine intracavernous injection can cause penile erection by immediately increasing penile blood flow. This was actually the beginning of the pharmaceutical treatment for erectile dysfunction.

Week 6 DiscussionQuestion ARisk management is a matter of id.docxcockekeshia
Week 6 Discussion
Question A
Risk management is a matter of identifying the situations that could cause your project to fail. Common risks include loss of staff, decreased funding, decision point approvals not completed in a timely manner, and content not being available. Brainstorm three or four other risks that you have seen in your professional experience. If you are having trouble identifying projects, brainstorm with your classmates or contact your instructor.Once you have 3-4 risks, identify at least two ways to prevent each and two ways to resolve them, if they happen in spite of your preventions. Post your ideas.
Question B
How does the Work Breakdown Structure (WBS) help to minimize risks? How often should a risk analysis be conducted? Why are risks often overlooked?
1-Today I am going to talk to you about prostate cancer. The purpose of my presentation is to discuss the role of diagnostic imaging in prostate cancer patient. I will start my presentation by introducing the condition of the pathology, then I will mention the general symptoms, investigation staging and treatment of the condition. Then I will focus on the patient case study pathway. Finally, I will summarise my presentation and I will give you time for questions after the presentation.
2- Prostate cancer is a fatal disease that affects millions of men worldwide every year. Its clinical behavior ranges from low grade tumours that never develop to aggressive tumours those growths into metastases disease (Johnson et al, 2014). The cause of the disease has not been found, but several related risk factors have been known, such as genetics, age and diet. Prostate cancer is the highest prevalent non-skin malignant tumors diagnosis in male patients in the UK, accounting 24% of entirely new cancers. The main prospect of developing prostate cancer is related to advancing age, that has been seen diagnoses occurring in men over the age of 65 and is rare in those 40 years of age (Stephens et al, 2008)
3- prostate gland is a walnut' sized structure which located between the penis and the bladder and surrounds the urethra, just lies posteriorly to rectum. It has functional relation with urinary and reproductive systems and its main role is to produce the liquid part of semen. Prostate gland divided into three distinctive anatomic zonal components: the central zone, transitional zone and the peripheral zone which compromises 70% by volume (Tempany & Franco, 2012).
4- The preponderance of prostate cancers is adenocarcinomas that initially derived from the outer or peripheral zone of the prostate gland. In early stage, prostate cancer hardly shows symptoms and is mostly diagnosed by fortunate PSA test, but overtime patient may present to clinic with lower urinary tract symptoms such as: trouble starting urine, pain during urination, increased urgent of urination, poor stream, erection trouble so on (Wijesinha & Fridenberg, 2007)
5- The initial tests for diagnosing prostate cancer a.
Prostate Cancer - Current Approach and Future Perspective in Castration-Resis...KCR
Prostate carcinoma is one of the most commonly diagnosed solid tumours in males worldwide. Selection of the treatment method is strictly dependent upon disease stage and the patient’s age. Availability of diagnostic tests is constantly increasing in clinical practice, allowing early diagnosis and better chances for complete and permanent recovery. In the case of locally advanced prostate carcinoma, radical surgery or radiotherapy is considered as the most effective therapeutic approach, whereas in metastatic prostate carcinoma, hormone therapy or androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) is the primary therapeutic option. Moreover, increased use of chemotherapy with docetaxel and cabazitaxel in clinical practice has resulted in better prognosis for patients in this advanced stage of the disease.
The biggest challenge for doctors and patients remains the treatment of hormone-resistant carcinoma (which very often is also metastatic). Concerns of today’s medicine regarding effective therapies for this type of disease have recently led to a significant increase in the number of papers/studies on new-generation biological treatments.

Η ανάπτυξη διαγνωστικών και θεραπευτικών πρωτοκόλλων είναι πλέον γεγονός σε πολλές παθήσεις και καθορίζουν την καθημερινή ιατρική πράξη και στη χώρα μας. Το ΙΜΟΠ ανέλαβε πριν από 18 μήνες την πρωτοβουλία για να καλύψει το αντίστοιχο κενό στην Ανδρολογία.
Για το όλο εγχείρημα υιοθετήθηκε η επίσημη μεθοδολογία που χρησιμοποιείται σε όλα τα θεραπευτικά πρωτόκολλα. Σε πρώτη φάση σε καθένα από τα μέλη της ομάδα εργασίας ανατέθηκε ένα πρωτόκολλο και ζητήθηκε να ολοκληρώσει την ανασκόπηση της σχετικής βιβλιογραφίας και σε συνδυασμό με την προσωπική του εμπειρία και τις συνθήκες των υποδομών της χώρας να προτείνει ρεαλιστικό διαγνωστικό και θεραπευτικό αλγόριθμο.
Η ομάδα εργασίας παρουσίασε πέρυσι το αποτέλεσμα στο Andrology update 2019 στη Θεσσαλονίκη και έγινε εκτενής συζήτηση με τους συναδέλφους.‘Ολες οι βελτιώσεις ενσωματώθηκαν στους τελικούς αλγόριθμους που παρουσιάζονται σε ειδική έκδοση του ΙΜΟΠ.
Ήρθε λοιπόν η ώρα για την κλινική εφαρμογή των πρωτοκόλλων. Στο φετινό Andrology Update παρουσιάζονται 2-3 περιστατικά και συζητιούνται οι διαγνωστικές και θεραπευτικές τους προσεγγίσεις με βάση τα νέα διαγνωστικά και θεραπευτικά πρωτόκολλα. Σε τέσσερις ενότητες παρουσιάζονται τα βασικά πρακτικά θέματα της υποειδίκευσης, για πρακτική άσκηση και απόκτηση δεξιοτήτων.
Όπως διαμορφώθηκε η νέα πραγματικότητα στην κοινωνία μας, μετά την απειλή του Covid-19, αποφασίσαμε το Andrology Update, αντί για την Αθήνα, όπου αρχικά είχε σχεδιαστεί να υλοποιηθεί, να γίνει διαδικτυακό. Με αυτόν τον τρόπο, πολλοί περισσότεροι θα μπορέσουν να παρακολουθήσουν την εκδήλωση, να διαδράσουν και να μοιραστούν την γνώση, με την ασφάλεια που επιτάσσουν οι καιροί, συνδεόμενοι από το σπίτι η το γραφείο τους.
Σας καλώ όλους να αγκαλιάσετε για μια ακόμη φορά αυτήν την ιδιαίτερα σημαντική επιστημονική εκδήλωση και με την ενεργό συμμετοχή σας να συμβάλλετε στην επιτυχή ολοκλήρωσή της προς όφελος όλων των συναδέλφων Ουρολόγων, αλλά κυρίως των αντρών με σεξουαλικά προβλήματα ή πρόβλημα γονιμότητας.

Το Σχολείο Ουρολογίας στην Πορταριά ξεκίνησε με ένα ερώτημα: μπορεί να σταθεί μια εκπαιδευτική διαδικασία με έντονο ολοήμερο πρόγραμμα, χωρίς κάτι τουριστικό, που απαιτεί 8-10 ώρες παρουσία στην αίθουσα καθημερινά;
Η θετική απάντηση τεκμηριώθηκε στα 12 χρόνια που πέρασαν.
Το σχολείο έχει ως στόχο την επιλεγμένη γνώση για εφαρμογή στο ιατρείο την επόμενη ημέρα. Με την ενεργό και συνεχή συμμετοχή των συμμετεχόντων έγινε εκδήλωση αναφοράς στην εκπαίδευση των Ουρολόγων.
Συνεχίζουμε, λοιπόν, για 13η χρονιά, πάντα με μικρό αριθμό
εκπαιδευόμενων-συμμετεχόντων Ουρολόγων, οι παρουσιάσεις με επίκεντρο το πρόβλημα (problem solving learning), βασισμένες στην τεκμηριωμένη γνώση (evidence-based medicine) και στην ανθρωποκεντρική προσέγγιση του ασθενή (patient-centred care) αλλά πάνω απ’ όλα με χρόνο συζήτησης κατά πολύ μεγαλύτερο από αυτόν της διδασκαλίας.
Πάλι στα θρανία τον Φεβρουάριο, στην Αγριά φέτος, στο Σχολείο που ΕΣΕΙΣ το κάνατε θεσμό στην εκπαίδευση των Ουρολόγων!

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
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
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.

Disruption of blood supply to lung alveoli due to blockage of one or more pulmonary blood vessels is called as Pulmonary thromboembolism. In this presentation we will discuss its causes, types and its management in depth.
Recomendações da OMS sobre cuidados maternos e neonatais para uma experiência pós-natal positiva.
Em consonância com os ODS – Objetivos do Desenvolvimento Sustentável e a Estratégia Global para a Saúde das Mulheres, Crianças e Adolescentes, e aplicando uma abordagem baseada nos direitos humanos, os esforços de cuidados pós-natais devem expandir-se para além da cobertura e da simples sobrevivência, de modo a incluir cuidados de qualidade.
Estas diretrizes visam melhorar a qualidade dos cuidados pós-natais essenciais e de rotina prestados às mulheres e aos recém-nascidos, com o objetivo final de melhorar a saúde e o bem-estar materno e neonatal.
Uma “experiência pós-natal positiva” é um resultado importante para todas as mulheres que dão à luz e para os seus recém-nascidos, estabelecendo as bases para a melhoria da saúde e do bem-estar a curto e longo prazo. Uma experiência pós-natal positiva é definida como aquela em que as mulheres, pessoas que gestam, os recém-nascidos, os casais, os pais, os cuidadores e as famílias recebem informação consistente, garantia e apoio de profissionais de saúde motivados; e onde um sistema de saúde flexível e com recursos reconheça as necessidades das mulheres e dos bebês e respeite o seu contexto cultural.
Estas diretrizes consolidadas apresentam algumas recomendações novas e já bem fundamentadas sobre cuidados pós-natais de rotina para mulheres e neonatos que recebem cuidados no pós-parto em unidades de saúde ou na comunidade, independentemente dos recursos disponíveis.
É fornecido um conjunto abrangente de recomendações para cuidados durante o período puerperal, com ênfase nos cuidados essenciais que todas as mulheres e recém-nascidos devem receber, e com a devida atenção à qualidade dos cuidados; isto é, a entrega e a experiência do cuidado recebido. Estas diretrizes atualizam e ampliam as recomendações da OMS de 2014 sobre cuidados pós-natais da mãe e do recém-nascido e complementam as atuais diretrizes da OMS sobre a gestão de complicações pós-natais.
O estabelecimento da amamentação e o manejo das principais intercorrências é contemplada.
Recomendamos muito.
Vamos discutir essas recomendações no nosso curso de pós-graduação em Aleitamento no Instituto Ciclos.

Features: Taste pores, Taste hairs/microvilli, and Taste nerve fibers
Location of Taste Buds:
Found in papillae of the tongue (Fungiform, Circumvallate, Foliate)
Also present on the palate, tonsillar pillars, epiglottis, and proximal esophagus
Mechanism of Taste Stimulation:
Interaction of taste substances with receptors on microvilli
Signal transduction pathways for Umami, Sweet, Bitter, Sour, and Salty tastes
Taste Sensitivity and Adaptation:
Decrease in sensitivity with age
Rapid adaptation of taste sensation
Role of Saliva in Taste:
Dissolution of tastants to reach receptors
Washing away the stimulus
Taste Preferences and Aversions:
Mechanisms behind taste preference and aversion
Influence of receptors and neural pathways
Impact of Sensory Nerve Damage:
Degeneration of taste buds if the sensory nerve fiber is cut
Abnormalities of Taste Detection:
Conditions: Ageusia, Hypogeusia, Dysgeusia (parageusia)
Causes: Nerve damage, neurological disorders, infections, poor oral hygiene, adverse drug effects, deficiencies, aging, tobacco use, altered neurotransmitter levels
Neurotransmitters and Taste Threshold:
Effects of serotonin (5-HT) and norepinephrine (NE) on taste sensitivity
Supertasters:
25% of the population with heightened sensitivity to taste, especially bitterness
Increased number of fungiform papillae

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.

Acute scrotum is a general term referring to an emergency condition affecting the contents or the wall of the scrotum.
There are a number of conditions that present acutely, predominantly with pain and/or swelling
A careful and detailed history and examination, and in some cases, investigations allow differentiation between these diagnoses. A prompt diagnosis is essential as the patient may require urgent surgical intervention
Testicular torsion refers to twisting of the spermatic cord, causing ischaemia of the testicle.
Testicular torsion results from inadequate fixation of the testis to the tunica vaginalis producing ischemia from reduced arterial inflow and venous outflow obstruction.
The prevalence of testicular torsion in adult patients hospitalized with acute scrotal pain is approximately 25 to 50 percent
