The document discusses understanding anxiety through a child's eyes. It identifies symptoms of anxiety in children, common misdiagnoses, how a child's developmental stage impacts fears, and interventions to help children deal with anxiety. Symptoms are presented for infants through older children and include emotional, behavioral, and physical signs. Effective interventions match a child's cognitive abilities and include establishing structure, addressing cognitive distortions, teaching coping skills, and ensuring children feel safe, secure and supported.

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!

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

11. Interventions
Infants-2years old
Be responsive
"Before six months, you're just extinguishing," explains Chilton
matter-of-factly. "Eventually, the baby just gives up." Loss of
parental contact is a serious danger signal for young babies,
and they're designed to cry until it's restored. But beyond a
certain point, even a hysterical baby will stop crying. This is
because, in an evolutionary sense, an unprotected crying baby
is broadcasting its whereabouts to predators. Instinct tells it
that its parents have vanished, and that the tiger that killed
them is close. It falls silent in order to survive. Dr. Howard
Chilton
AllCEUs Unlimited CEUs $59 | Addiction Counselor Certificate Training $149 | Specialty Certificates $89 11
12. Interventions
Infants-2years old
Talk it out
Start teaching emotional vocabulary and needs identification
(hungry, scared, sleepy, overstimulated)
“The dog scares you. The is loud is loud. Loud sounds can be scary for
you.”
Toddlers struggle with being able to correctly identify their
emotions and find the right word to describe that emotion.
Use feeling faces
Identify feelings in videos. Ask questions about how characters feel.
Play games to help with fears
Hide and seek (start small)

21. Summary
Children’s cognitive, physical and experiential differences
make their anxiety different than that of adults
Children’s symptoms of anxiety also often manifest
differently with more irritability, defiance and somatic
complaints.
Anxiety disorders are frequently misdiagnosed as ADD,
autism, ODD and PTSD
Children’s fears often focus around Maslow’s lower three
needs: Biological, Safety, Love and Belonging
Addressing anxiety means helping the child understand, in
a developmentally appropriate way, that they will have
what they need, they are safe and they will always belong
and be loved.
