This document discusses the renoprotective mechanisms of SGLT-2 inhibitors (SGLT-2i) and GLP-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1RA) in treating diabetes. SGLT-2i are renoprotective through improving tubuloglomerular feedback, reducing tubular workload and hypoxia, causing diuresis and natriuresis, and suppressing inflammation. GLP-1RA are also renoprotective but to a lesser extent than SGLT-2i. The document provides guidance on dose adjustments for SGLT-2i and GLP-1RA in patients with renal impairment and concludes that SGLT-2i appear to

Explain the structure and location of the olfactory membrane and mucosa, including the types and roles of cells involved in olfaction.
Describe the pathway and mechanisms of olfactory signal transmission from the olfactory receptors to the brain.
Illustrate the biochemical cascade triggered by odorant binding to olfactory receptors, including the role of G-proteins and second messengers in generating an action potential.
Identify different types of olfactory disorders such as anosmia, hyposmia, hyperosmia, and dysosmia, including their potential causes.
Key Topics:
Olfactory Genes:
3% of the human genome accounts for olfactory genes.
400 genes for odorant receptors.
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.
Involves a cascade effect through G-proteins and second messengers, leading to depolarization and action potential generation in the olfactory nerve.
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
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

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

Couples presenting to the infertility clinic- Do they really have infertility...Sujoy Dasgupta
Dr Sujoy Dasgupta presented the study on "Couples presenting to the infertility clinic- Do they really have infertility? – The unexplored stories of non-consummation" in the 13th Congress of the Asia Pacific Initiative on Reproduction (ASPIRE 2024) at Manila on 24 May, 2024.
11. Tubular workload and Hypoxia
Functional recovery of tubulointerstitial fibroblasts with SGLT2 inhibitor therapy (reverse remodeling). SGLT2 inhibitor
therapy suppresses oxygen consumption by the proximal tubules and improves tubulointerstitial hypoxia.
13. Anti-inflammatory Pathway
SGLT-2i reduce levels of nuclear factor kB (NFkB),IL-6,
Monocyte chemoattractant protein 1 (MCP-1), and other factors
implicated in inflammation and tissue fibrosis in experimental
models of diabetes.
Hyperuricemia may induce kidney inflammation and has been
reported to be a risk factor for incident DKD in T2DM and SGLT-2i
causes uricosuria.
16. Dose adjustment of SGLT-2i and GLP-
1RA in renal failure patients :
For SGLT-2i
When eGFR >30, no dose adjustment required.
When eGFR <30, contraindicated.
It is reasonable to withhold SGLT2i during times of prolonged fasting,
surgery, or critical medical illness (when patients may be at greater
risk for ketosis).
A reversible decrease in the eGFR with commencement of SGLT2i
treatment may occur and is generally not an indication to discontinue
therapy.
17. For GLP-1RA : (According to ADA guideline)
> No dose adjustment for dulaglutide, liraglutide and semaglutide .
> When eGFR < 30, avoid exenatide, lixisenatide.
19. Which one has more Renoprotective Effect ?
(SGLT-2i or GLP-1RA)
Although no trial has directly compared SGLT-2i with GLP-1RA, a
meta-analysis of 8 cardiovascular trials found a 38% and 18% lower
risk of new-onset UACR >300mg/g, doubling of S. creatinine, a
>40% decline in eGFR, kidney failure with replacement therapy or
death from kidney diseases for SGLT-2i and GLP-1RA, respectively.
Thus, SGLT-2i appears to be more effective in slowing kidney
disease progression and should be considered before GLP-1RA.
