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
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.

MANAGEMENT OF ATRIOVENTRICULAR CONDUCTION BLOCK.pdfJim Jacob Roy
Cardiac conduction defects can occur due to various causes.
Atrioventricular conduction blocks ( AV blocks ) are classified into 3 types.
This document describes the acute management of AV block.
2. “Gain of function” was most important to their
quality of life, with spinal cord injury (SCI)
Sexuality should have a major priority
SCI alters sexual sense
By improving sexual function quality of life will
be improved
1/8/2017 2
3. In 1966, By Masters and Johnson (M&J)
Rising and declining sexual arousal
a. Excitement
b. Plateau (high arousal before orgasm)
c. Orgasm
d. Resolution
1/8/2017 3
4. Associated with the senses, memory, and fantasy
• Increases in heart rate, blood pressure,
respiratory rate
• Late myotonia
Men: Engorgement of the corpus cavernosa of
the penis, testicular elevation, scrotal skin
flattening
1/8/2017 4
5. Women: Clitoral enlargement, vaginal
lubrication, constriction of the lower third of the
vagina with dilation of the upper two-thirds,
uterine elevation out of the deep pelvis, nipple
erection, areolar enlargement
1/8/2017 5
6. Increase in HR, RR and muscle tone
Sex flush may develop, sense of well-being
Men: Increase in diameter and size of penis 50%-
100% over baseline, testicular elevation
Women: Breast engorgement by up to 50% and
clitoral shaft and glans retraction
1/8/2017 6
7. Maximum HR, respiratory rate, blood pressure
Involuntary rhythmic contractions of the pelvic
floor muscles
Men: Only one orgasm per cycle
Women: Can have multiple orgasms per cycle or
can go straight from plateau to resolution
1/8/2017 7
8. Generalized perspiration
Gradual reversal of the above changes in heart
rate, blood pressure, and respiratory rate
Lasts 5-15 minutes
The penis does not return to its normal size for
30-60 minutes after orgasm
1/8/2017 8
9. Two neurological pathways
Reflexogenic
Psychogenic
Common pathway involving a sacral
parasympathetic route
1/8/2017 9
10. It is triggered by direct stimulation of the genital
organs
Afferent via pudendal nerve to the S2–4
Efferent returns through the sacral
parasympathetic center, via fibers to the pelvic
nerve and cavernosal nerves at the genitalia
1/8/2017 10
13. Arousal is predominately parasympathetic
Ejaculation is primarily a sympathetic phenomenon
Ejaculation occurs in two phases
1.Seminal emission (sympathetic T10–L2)
2.Pulsatile expulsion
(parasympathetic S2–4)
The sympathetic hypogastric nerve (L1, L2) activity
closes the bladder neck to prevent retrograde
ejaculation
1/8/2017 13
14. Complete SCI above the level of the psychogenic
pathway eliminates the natural supratentorial
control
Enhancing the reflexogenic mechanism initiated
by touch
SCI involving the lumbosacral region results in
loss of reflexogenic but not psychogenic capacity
1/8/2017 14
16. Anxiety and fear
Decreased libido
Limited ROM
Loss of mobility-paralysis, spasticity, contracture
Poor body image
Incontinence
Impotence-ED
Catheter
1/8/2017 16
17. Stimulation to cause reflexive lubrication
If needed, artificial water-based lubricants (such
as moods and durex) can be used
1/8/2017 17
18. The patient should be encouraged to explore his
body by rubbing the penis, the thighs, or the anus
Alternative forms of sex that do not require an
erect penis, such as using a vibrator or trying oral
or digital sex
Injections of hormones that stimulate erections
can be used
1/8/2017 18
19. The use of a vibrator or massager against the
penis helps to ejaculate, it is a less invasive
technique
Surgical implants can be used
The possibility of infection and skin breakdown
1/8/2017 19
20. Women who sustain a SCI may experience a
disruption in their menstrual cycle
This may last upto 6 months after an injury
The ability for a woman to have children is
usually not affected
Men with SCI also experience difficulty with
fertility due to inability to ejaculate during
intercourse
1/8/2017 20
21. The person might not be aware of an abrasion or
infection, if there is sensory impairment in and
around the genital area
Any genital irritation or infection allows easy
entrance for STDs
Extra caution should be taken by the person with
SCI due to high risk for HIV and STDs
1/8/2017 21
22. Hygiene issues may occur for several reasons
lack of education, poor hand function, and
poor sensation
Sex is possible for both men and women, but
some precautions should be taken
The bladder should be fully voided before
sexual activity
1/8/2017 22
23. Urine flow should be restricted for as short
time as possible and no more than 30 minutes
No fluids for at least 2 hours before sex
Positions that avoid placing pressure on the
bladder should be used
1/8/2017 23
25. A sanitary napkin or pad requires less fine motor
skill and is less dependent on intact sensation
than a tampon
To educate the pros and cons of using either a
sanitary pad or a tampon during menstruation
Impairment of bowel or bladder function may
have an occasional episode of incontinence
during sexual activities
1/8/2017 25
26. Orgasmic ability has been shown to be preserved
In 38% to 50% of men with complete UMN SCI
78% to 84% of men with incomplete UMN
injury
0% of men with complete LMN injury
1/8/2017 26
27. Most studies of men have focused on the ability
to ejaculate instead of the ability to have an
orgasm
Some men are also occasionally able to achieve
orgasm without anterograde ejaculation, possibly
indicating either anejaculation or retrograde
ejaculation into the bladder
1/8/2017 27
28. Fertility impaired
Because of a decreased ability to ejaculate
Semen quality has also been found to be poor
1.Decreased sperm motility
2.Decreased mitochondrial activity
3.Increased sperm DNA fragmentation
1/8/2017 28
29. Reasons for altered semen quality due to
1.Seminal fluid stasis
2.Testicular hyperthermia
3.Recurrent genitourinary tract infections
4.Hormonal dysfunction
1/8/2017 29
30. ALLOW
A– Ask the patient
L– Legitimize the patient’s problem
L– Limitations in the evaluation
O– Open up the discussion
W–Work together
1/8/2017 30
32. B–Bring up the topic of sexuality
E–Explain that sexuality is important
T–Tell the patient
T–Time of discussion
E–Educate the patient about the side effects
R–Record that you had a conversation
1/8/2017 32
33. Complete blood cell count, fasting blood glucose,
and fasting lipid profile
TFT , serum free testosterone, prolactin
Sex hormones such as estrogen, FSH, LH, or
total testosterone but less utility in a majority of
cases
Vaginal wet mount testing or screens for
gonorrhea, chlamydia, or human
immunodeficiency virus can be done if infection
suspected
1/8/2017 33
34. For men with ED, specialized diagnostic
procedures are used to determine the specific
etiology of disease
Electro-diagnostic testing- by dorsal nerve
stimulation
Penile color duplex ultrasound is the most
practical
1/8/2017 34
35. Penile pharmacoarteriography, PHCAS or
PHCAG
In women, pelvic ultrasound can be indicated if
uterine or adnexal pathologic disorders are
suspected
The objective measures of genital blood flow-
vaginal photoplethysmography
1/8/2017 35
36. Erectile dysfunction
PDE-5 inhibitors: sildenafil, vardenafil, tadalafil
Sildenafil is FDA aproved
Tadalafil is approved for on-demand or daily
Significantly improve 60%- 70% of patients
80% success rates in men with SCI
Contraindicated in pts on nitrates for chest pain
1/8/2017 36
37. Intra-cavernosal injection therapy with PGE1
Intra-urethral alprostadil (medicated urethral
system for erection [MUSE]) therapy
The most commonly injected medications are
alprostadil, papaverine, and phentolamine in
various combinations
Vacuum constriction devices
1/8/2017 37
38. Patients who cannot take PDE-5 inhibitors
Do not want to try intra-cavernosal injection
therapy
Its efficacy is only 30%
Rarely associated with hypotension and syncope
1/8/2017 38
39. Negative pressure draws blood into the corpora
cavernosa
A constriction band applied at the base
Efficacy rates are as high as 90%
It is preferred who want to avoid medications
1/8/2017 39
40. Include surgical options such as penile prostheses
Penile prostheses come in two types:
1.Semirigid
2.Inflatable
1/8/2017 40
41. Semi-rigid(malleable)- prostheses have malleable
silicone elastomer rods with central metal cables
that can be bent or straightened to produce an
erection
Inflatable -Inflatable prostheses cylinders that are
implanted into the corpora cavernosa, reservoir
with fluid, and a pump that is placed in the
scrotum
Erection is achieved by compressing the scrotal
pump to transfer fluid
1/8/2017 41
43. The main treatment for PE is CBT and
psychologic counseling
Various approaches are
Start-pause and frenulum squeeze techniques
Experimentation with positioning, rhythm, speed,
breathing, and depth of penile penetration
Success rates of up to 70 %
1/8/2017 43
44. Often very time-consuming, expensive, and
perceived as intrusive and mechanistic, affecting
intimacy and spontaneity during a sexual
encounter
No medications are FDA approved for the
treatment of PE, SSRIs (paroxetine, followed by
fluoxetine) are the most commonly
TCA clomipramine has also been used
successfully, but anticholinergic side effects limit
its tolerance
1/8/2017 44
45. Assisted ejaculation methods for fertility
treatment in men with SCI
1.Penile vibratory stimulation (PVS)
2.Rectal probe electro-ejaculation (EEJ)
1/8/2017 45
46. PVS is most commonly used technique
It produces superior sperm quality
More comfortable and preferable to patients, and
can be used in a home setting
PVS produces ejaculation in 60% to 80% of
cases
1/8/2017 46
47. EEJ is usually only when PVS has been
unsuccessful
EEJ is 80% to 100% successful to produces
ejaculation
Chemically like midodrine to improve
ejaculation success rates in combination with
PVS
1/8/2017 47
48. A recent study showed that vardenafil can
improve the ejaculation rate in men with SCI
Monitor BP and look for signs of AD as it is
common in spinal cord–injured men undergoing
assisted ejaculation
Cognitive-behavioral modification and
psychotherapy are indicated in men with
psychogenic (situational or relational) orgasmic
1/8/2017 48
49. It is important to remember that libido is very
different from that of men
The first step is to educate her what is normal
for women
The major pharmacologic treatment for
HSDD in women is testosterone therapy
A transdermal patch of testosterone is the
most commonly used
1/8/2017 49
50. It is more with psychosocial factors than with
organic causes
Sexual behavioral techniques and couple’s
counseling is beneficial
Helping to reduce anxiety and exaggerated
sexual expectations
1/8/2017 50
51. The medication has been well tolerated
PDE-5 inhibitors remain a viable treatment
option, in acquired genital arousal disorder of an
organic nature (SCI)
1/8/2017 51
52. To focus on decreasing anxiety and promoting
changes in attitudes sexual thoughts, sensation
These behavioral treatments have been shown to
be effective in 60% of women
As with decreased arousal, mechanical devices
can help with attainment of orgasm
1/8/2017 52
53. Disability doesn’t automatically diminish the
importance of sexuality to the overall quality of a
patient’s life
A thorough understanding of the diagnosis and
treatment of sexual dysfunction is needed
Discussions about sexuality with patients will
enable the practitioner to have a significant
impact on their quality of life
1/8/2017 53
Myotonia-inability to relax voluntary muscle after vigorous effort
Sex flush-rash over the chest, neck, and face, Platue phase- Lasts seconds to minutes
An act independently
usually act synergistically
Reticular activating systems (involved with nocturnal arousal during REM sleep)
If the normal reflex arc is interrupted, it is usually not possible to achieve an erection, and alternative methods must be explored. Neuroanatomy of reflex and psychogenic erection, emission and ejaculation in a normal individual. (1) Pudendal stimulation causes reflex parasympathetic erection through activation of the parasympathetic pathway (pelvic nerves and NANC- non-adrenergic non-cholinergic (NANC)fibres). (2) Auditory, visual andolfactory pathways, fantasy and dreams can induce psychogenic parasympathetic erection (pelvic and NANC nerves). (3) Anxiety, stress,cerebral inhibition can depress erection through activation of the sympathetic pathway (hypogastric nerves). (4) Contraction ¼flacidity ¼adrenergic stimulation, Hypogastric nerve (OS). Relaxation ¼erection ¼NO stimulation (NANC), Acetylcholine facilitates (PS). Erectiondepends on equilibrium between the OS and NANC stimulation. (5) Emission starts cholinergic (secretion) and ends sympathetic (contractionbladder neck, vas, seminal vesicles, prostate, y). (6) Ejaculation is mainly adrenergic and somatic. The spinal reflex ejaculation generatorcentre has been localized in the thoracolumbar region and contains lumbar spinothalamic cells (LSt-cells). (7) Some sacral innervated muscleslike the levator muscles, the urethral and anal external sphincters are innervated both by the pudendal and pelvic nerves.
Depression adversely affects sex drive and with a new onset of a disability
There is a high incidence of depression 14% to 61% of persons with in individuals who have sustained a spinal cord injury
can be effective ways to evoke a reflexogenic erection ,
once her menstruation resumes
to prevent the bladder filling
Communication About Sexuality
A– Ask the patient about sexual function and activity
L– Legitimize the patient’s problem and acknowledge that sexual dysfunction is a relevant clinical issue
L– Limitations in the evaluation of the sexual dysfunction should be identified
O– Open up the discussion: potentially refer the patient to a subspecialist
W–Work together to develop goals and a treatment plan
P–Permission should be obtained from the patient to discuss sexuality
LI–Limited information should be given (e.g., about normal sexual functioning and effects of disability)
SS–Specific suggestions should be given about the patient’s particular complaint
IT–Intensive therapy may be required, including referral to a subspecialist or therapist
B–Bring up the topic of sexuality
E–Explain that sexuality is important and you are open for discussion with patient
T–Tell the patient about resources that you will use to assist
T–Time of discussion on the patient’s preference
E–Educate the patient about the side effects of treatment medications and the disability itself
R–Record that you had a conversation about sexuality in the patient’s medical record
are more invasive and time-consuming and are rarely used
an onset of action within 30 to 120 minutes and a duration of efficacy of 4 to 5 hours,
Tadalafil has an onset of action of 30 to 60 minutes and a duration of efficacy of 12to 36 hours
Topical alprostadil formulations are currently undergoing clinical
trials with modest efficacy results, but with side effects of penile burning and partner vaginal pain
The constriction band cannot be left in place longer than 30 minutes because of the risk for ischemia, especially in patients who are insensate such as those with SCI. Anticoagulant therapy is a relative contraindication
because of their slow onset of action (5 hours), long half-lives, and long treatment time (up to 4 weeks) to achieve a steady-st
