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.

Flu Vaccine Alert in Bangalore Karnatakaaddon Scans
As flu season approaches, health officials in Bangalore, Karnataka, are urging residents to get their flu vaccinations. The seasonal flu, while common, can lead to severe health complications, particularly for vulnerable populations such as young children, the elderly, and those with underlying health conditions.
Dr. Vidisha Kumari, a leading epidemiologist in Bangalore, emphasizes the importance of getting vaccinated. "The flu vaccine is our best defense against the influenza virus. It not only protects individuals but also helps prevent the spread of the virus in our communities," he says.
This year, the flu season is expected to coincide with a potential increase in other respiratory illnesses. The Karnataka Health Department has launched an awareness campaign highlighting the significance of flu vaccinations. They have set up multiple vaccination centers across Bangalore, making it convenient for residents to receive their shots.
To encourage widespread vaccination, the government is also collaborating with local schools, workplaces, and community centers to facilitate vaccination drives. Special attention is being given to ensuring that the vaccine is accessible to all, including marginalized communities who may have limited access to healthcare.
Residents are reminded that the flu vaccine is safe and effective. Common side effects are mild and may include soreness at the injection site, mild fever, or muscle aches. These side effects are generally short-lived and far less severe than the flu itself.
Healthcare providers are also stressing the importance of continuing COVID-19 precautions. Wearing masks, practicing good hand hygiene, and maintaining social distancing are still crucial, especially in crowded places.
Protect yourself and your loved ones by getting vaccinated. Together, we can help keep Bangalore healthy and safe this flu season. For more information on vaccination centers and schedules, residents can visit the Karnataka Health Department’s official website or follow their social media pages.
Stay informed, stay safe, and get your flu shot today!

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.

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

Post Cardiac Arrest Syndrome
1. ILCOR Consensus StatementPost-Cardiac Arrest Syndrome: Epidemiology, Pathophysiology, Treatment, and PrognosticationA Consensus Statement From the International Liaison Committee on Resuscitation Circulation. 2008;118:2452-2483
3. Epidemiology The largest published in-hospital cardiac arrest database (theNRCPR) includes data from >36000 cardiac arrests. In-hospital mortalityrate was 67% for the 19819 adults with any documented ROSC, 62% for the 17183 adults with ROSC >20 minutes.
10. Therapeutic Strategies Monitoring Early Hemodynamic Optimization Ventilation Circulatory Support Management of ACS Therapeutic Hypothermia Sedation and Neuromuscular Blockade Seizure Control and Prevention Glucose Control Placement of Implantable Cardioverter-Defibrillators
11. Monitoring Options General intensive care monitoring Arterial catheter Oxygen saturation by pulse oximetry Continuous ECG CVP ScvO2 Temperature (bladder, esophagus) Urine output Arterial blood gases Serum lactate Blood glucose, electrolytes, CBC, and general blood sampling Chest radiograph More advanced hemodynamic monitoring Echocardiography Cardiac output monitoring (either noninvasive or PA catheter) Cerebral monitoring EEG (on indication/continuously): early seizure detection and treatment CT/MRI
12. Early Hemodynamic Optimization Early Goal-Directed Therapy CVP: 8 to 12 mm Hg, MAP: 65 to 90 mm Hg, ScvO2 >70%, Hematocrit >30% or hemoglobin >8 g/dL, lactate <2mmol/L, urine output >0.5 mL · kg–1 · h–1, oxygen deliveryindex >600 mL · min–1 · m–2
15. Circulatory Support Dysrhythmias can be treated by maintenance of normal electrolyteconcentrations, use of standard drug and electrical therapies. The first-line intervention for hypotension is to optimize right-heart filling pressures by use of IV fluids. In 1 study,3.5 to 6.5 L of IV crystalloid was required in thefirst 24 hours after ROSC after OHCAto maintain CVP in the range of 8 to 13 mmHg.
16. Circulatory Support Inotropes and vasopressors should be considered if hemodynamicgoals are not achieved despite optimized preload. Early echocardiography willenable the extent of myocardial dysfunction to be quantifiedand may guide therapy. Additionalcardiac support: intra-aorticballoon pump (IABP), percutaneous cardiopulmonary bypass, extracorporeal membraneoxygenation (ECMO), transthoracic ventricular assist devices.
17. Management of ACS Patients resuscitated from cardiac arrest who have ST-elevation myocardial infarctionshould undergo immediate coronary angiography, with subsequentPCI if indicated. It is appropriate toconsider immediate coronary angiography in all post–cardiacarrest patients in whom ACS is suspected.
18. Therapeutic Hypothermia Unconscious adult patientswith ROSC after out-of-hospital VF cardiacarrest should be cooled to 32°C to 34°C for at least12 to 24 hours. Rapid IV infusion of ice-cold 0.9% salineor Ringer’s lactate (30 mL/kg) is a simple, effectivemethod for initiating cooling. Slow rewarming: 0.25°C to 0.5°C per hour. If therapeutic hypothermia is not undertaken, pyrexia duringthe first 72 hours after cardiac arrest should be treated aggressivelywith antipyretics or active cooling.
19. Sedation and Neuromuscular Blockade Critically ill post–cardiac arrest patientswill require sedation for mechanical ventilation and therapeutichypothermia. Adequate sedation is particularly important for prevention ofshivering during induction of therapeutic hypothermia, maintenance,and rewarming.
20. Seizure Control and Prevention Prolonged seizures may cause cerebral injury andshould be treated promptly and effectively with benzodiazepines,phenytoin, sodium valproate, propofol, or a barbiturate. Clonazepam is the drug of choice for the treatmentof myoclonus.
21. Glucose Control Tight control blood glucose (80 to 110mg/dL) with insulin reduced hospital mortality rates in criticallyill adults.
22. Placement of Implantable Cardioverter-Defibrillators In survivors with good neurological recovery, insertion of anICD is indicated if subsequentcardiac arrests cannot be reliably prevented by other treatments(such as pacemaker for AV block, transcatheterablation of a single ectopic pathway, or valve replacement forcritical aortic stenosis).
