Brittany set a SMART goal to increase her time on the elliptical from 30 minutes to 40 minutes, 4 days a week for a month. She tracked her progress using a fitness app and reached her goal within 4 weeks by scheduling workouts, getting rest, eating healthy, and logging her progress. Positive influences like friends and a schedule helped her achieve her goal of 40 minutes on the elliptical Monday through Thursday as planned.
Keep fit, stay motivated and get healthy! A PT programCaleb Seow
We're facing a crisis - 1 in 3 adults aren't getting enough physical activity each week. There are huge dangers - one of which being muscle loss above the age of 40.
For anyone above 40 years old, we lose close to 3% muscle strength each year.
Slides are created to share some active tips to combat muscle loss, and keep active.

Title: Sense of Smell
Presenter: Dr. Faiza, Assistant Professor of Physiology
Qualifications:
MBBS (Best Graduate, AIMC Lahore)
FCPS Physiology
ICMT, CHPE, DHPE (STMU)
MPH (GC University, Faisalabad)
MBA (Virtual University of Pakistan)
Learning Objectives:
Describe the primary categories of smells and the concept of odor blindness.
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
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
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.

2. SMART Goal
S-(Specific) I will use the elliptical for 40 minutes every Monday
Tuesday Wednesday Thursday at the HUB gym M-
(Measurable) I will time myself with the clock on the elliptical and
fitness pal on my Iphone. A- (Attainable) I am a member on the
Plymouth State Ski team and already very active and ski every day
of the week which motivates me to go to the gym after skiing so I
can keep my cardio level up. R- (Realistic) I already use the
elliptical at least 3 times a week for 30 minutes so I find that this
goal is practical. T- (Timely) This goal will be accomplished by
mid March, giving me around a month to accomplish my goal.
3. My Goal
Goal
Increase my time on the elliptical
by ten minutes which brought
me from 30 minutes to 40
minutes and go to the gym
Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday
and Thursday with a month to
do so.
How did I achieve my goal?
Scheduling time to work out,
getting enough rest, eating
healthy and using my fitness
pal to log my progress.
4. My Fitness Pal
What is it?
It is an application for Iphone
and also available online
Takes in account age,
weight, and sex
Keeps track of diet, exercise,
and how many calories you
burn through each work out
session
5. Table
Monday Tuesday Wed Thurs
Week 1 30 min 30 min 30 min 35 min
Week 2 35 min 30 min 30 min 35 min
Week 3 35 min 35 min 40 min 40 min
Week 4 40 min 40 min 40 min 40 min
6. Factors that Influenced
Behavior
Negative Influences
Internship all day and class
at night, bad weather,
distractions.
Positive Influences
Friends, Schedules, good
nights sleep, healthy eating
habits, staying hydrated.
7. Did I reach my goal?
YES I did reach my goal.
In about 4 weeks I was able to reach
40 minutes on the elliptical with no
problem.
The most helpful part of reaching my
goal was making sure I scheduled
in time to workout every day. Even
on my busy days I made sure I put
in my planner a certain time I would
go to the gym.Also on My Fitness
Pal you can become friends with
people which helped me motivate
myself when I saw that others
worked out that day.
