Introduction
Many have been interested in Tom Selleck health. not only because of his enduring presence on screen but also because of the challenges. and lifestyle choices he has faced and made over the years. This article delves into the various aspects of Tom Selleck health. exploring his fitness regimen, diet, mental health. and the challenges he has encountered as he ages. We'll look at how he maintains his well-being. the health issues he has faced, and his approach to ageing .
Early Life and Career
Childhood and Athletic Beginnings
Tom Selleck was born on January 29, 1945, in Detroit, Michigan, and grew up in Sherman Oaks, California. From an early age, he was involved in sports, particularly basketball. which played a significant role in his physical development. His athletic pursuits continued into college. where he attended the University of Southern California (USC) on a basketball scholarship. This early involvement in sports laid a strong foundation for his physical health and disciplined lifestyle.
Transition to Acting
Selleck's transition from an athlete to an actor came with its physical demands. His first significant role in "Magnum P.I." required him to perform various stunts and maintain a fit appearance. This role, which he played from 1980 to 1988. necessitated a rigorous fitness routine to meet the show's demands. setting the stage for his long-term commitment to health and wellness.
Fitness Regimen
Workout Routine
Tom Selleck health and fitness regimen has evolved. adapting to his changing roles and age. During his "Magnum, P.I." days. Selleck's workouts were intense and focused on building and maintaining muscle mass. His routine included weightlifting, cardiovascular exercises. and specific training for the stunts he performed on the show.
Selleck adjusted his fitness routine as he aged to suit his body's needs. Today, his workouts focus on maintaining flexibility, strength, and cardiovascular health. He incorporates low-impact exercises such as swimming, walking, and light weightlifting. This balanced approach helps him stay fit without putting undue strain on his joints and muscles.
Importance of Flexibility and Mobility
In recent years, Selleck has emphasized the importance of flexibility and mobility in his fitness regimen. Understanding the natural decline in muscle mass and joint flexibility with age. he includes stretching and yoga in his routine. These practices help prevent injuries, improve posture, and maintain mobilit

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
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

3. Why do we need space?
Correction of crowding.
Retraction of proclined teeth.
Reduction of increased overjet and
overbite.
Leveling of steep curve of Spee .
Derotaion of anterior teeth.
Correction of unstable molar relations
(i.e. Cl II and Cl III molar relations).
4. Space gaining Methods
Proximal stripping.
Arch expansion.
Extraction.
Distalization of molars.
Uprighting of tilted teeth.
Derotation of posterior tooth.
Proclination of anterior teeth.
5. 1. Proximal stripping
The selective reduction of the mesio-distal width
of certain teeth to create space.
Also known as reapproximation, slenderization,
disking and proximal slicing.
The teeth that are usually proximally stripped
are the mandibular incisors, but it can also be done
for upper anteriors and buccal segment teeth.
Approximately 0.5mm of enamel will be
removed from each tooth (i.e. 50% of the thickness
of the enamel).
6. Indications
Mild crowding (0-2.5 mm).
Bolton analysis shows excess tooth material.
To aid in retention.
7. Contraindications
Patients with poor oral hygiene.
Patients with high caries rate.
Young patients as their teeth may possess large
pulp chambers.
9. Disadvantages
Increase caries susceptibility.
Sensitivity.
Creation or rough contact areas
that result in food impaction.
Alteration of tooth morphology if
performed by inexperience operator.
10. Methods of stripping
Metal abrasive strips.
Corborundum disks.
Long Thin tapered
fissure burs.
12. 2. Extraction
The most common method of space gaining.
Used in moderate to sever crowding cases.
First premolars are the most commonly extracted tooth (Why?).
It lies in the middle of the arch so its extraction will provide space
for both anterior and posterior segment.
The contact between the canine and second premolar is usually
stable following space closure.
The amount of anchorage is satisfactory to help retract the
anterior segment.
13. b. Extraction
There are two reasons for extracting teeth
in orthodontics:
(1) To correct moderate to sever crowding.
(2) To allow camouflage of moderate Class II or Class
III jaw relationships when correction by growth
modification is not possible.
14. Criteria of selection of the tooth to
be extracted
Prognosis of the tooth: badly broken down tooth and
RCT treated tooth are usually chosen.
Position of the tooth: severely mal-positioned or
displaced tooth are usually chosen
The degree of crowding.
The site of crowding: do we need the space to correct
the anterior or posterior segment?
The anchorage demand.
The sagittal relation.
15. 2. Extraction
Options for extractions:
For class I:
Extraction of upper and
lower first premolars
Extraction of upper and
lower second premolars
i.e extraction of the same
tooth from the upper and
lower arch
17. 2. Extraction
Options for extractions:
For class III
Extraction of lower first
premolars only.
Extraction of upper 2nd
and lower 1st premolars.
Extraction of one lower
incisor.
18. 3. Arch expansion
The term jaw expansion refer to widening of
posterior teeth.
First introduced by Emerson C. Angell in 1860.
Walter Coffin in 1877 introduced the coffin spring.
Karhkaus and Andrew Hass in 1950s introduced
the Hass appliance.
19. 3. Arch
expansion
Types of arch expansions
1. According to the type:
A. Skeletal expansion:
Achieved by opening the mid-palatal suture.
The expansion screw is activated at a rate of
(0.25-0.5 mm) per day.
The treatment usually takes around two weeks
(midline diastema occur when suture open).
Ineffective after age of 15-16 years due to
ossification of the mid-platal suture
Surgically assisted rapid palatal expansion is
indicated after age of 16 years.
20. 3. Arch
expansion
Types of arch expansions
2. According to the type:
b. Dental expansion:
Achieved by buccal tipping of
teeth.
The expansion screw is activated
at rated of (1-2 mm) per months.
The treatment usually takes
around 5 months.
21. 3. Arch expansion
Types of arch expansions
3. According to the speed
Rapid expansion: 0.25- 0.5 mm/ per day ( i.e. 1-2 turn
per day)
Slow expansion: ( 1-2 mm/per month) ( 1-2 turn per
week)
Semi-rapid: Start with rapid activation rate for the first
week then continue at slow expansion rate
22. 3. Arch expansion
Comparison between slow and rapid expansion
Feature Slow expansion Rapid expansion
Type of expansion Mostly dental Skeletal
Rate of expansion Slow Rapid
Type of tissue reaction More physiological More traumatic
Force used Milder force Greater forces
Frequency of activation Less frequent More frequent
Duration of treatment Long Short
Type of appliance Either fixed or removable Mostly fixed appliance
Age Any age Before fusion of mid-palatal
suture
Retention Lesser chance of relapse More chance of relapse
23. 4. Distalizaion of molars
It is the distal movement of molars to gain space.
Usually done in mixed dentition before the eruption
of 2nd molars.
Not more than 2-3 mm can be achieved without
extraction of second molars or third molars.
Distal movement of molar teeth can be
accomplished by:
Extraoral appliance: Headgear.
Intraoral distalizing appliances.
Skeletal anchorage.
24. a. Extraoral appliance: headgear
The appliance is worn for
10- 12 hours per day.
The force is usually about
200-400 mg per side.
Unilateral distalization can
be done by using asymmetric
headgear.
25. b. Intraoral distalizing appliance
Gain its anchorage from the palate
The relative stability of the anterior palate, both the soft
tissue rugae and the cortical bone beneath them
Once palatal anchorage has been established, there are
several possibilities for generating the molar distalizing force.
Austenite nickel–titanium (A-NiTi) coil springs compressed against
the molars advantages: continues force less bulky.
Repelling magnets disadvantiges: Bulky, force decay as the teeth
moves.
Beta Ti springs Example: Pendulum appliance
27. ii. Repelling magnets
Palatal anchorage with stabilizing
lingual arch from premolars
Magnet assembly with repelling
force
28. ii. Repelling magnets
Space opening with rate of 1
mm/month. Appliance is reactivated by
approximating the magnets magnets
Lingual arch to hold the molars
during fixed app. therapy.
30. The pendulum appliance?
Canine is blocked out with ½ molar
relationship
Pendulum appliance
with both a jackscrew for transverse expansion and
molar distalizing springs (this modification is called
the T-Rex appliance).
31. The pendulum appliance?
Appliance removed, noticed the
significance palatal irritation
Lingual holding arch to stabilize the
molars as fixed appliance treatment
proceeds
33. c. Skeletal Anchorage
At this point, the advantage of
skeletal anchorage for distalization
of molars is so great that it is rapidly
replacing the previous methods.
Skeletal anchorage or not, two
objects cannot occupy the same
space at the same time, therefore
extraction of 7s or 8s may be
indicated.
34. 5. Derotation of posterior teeth
Rotated posterior tooth
occupy more space
Derotation of these teeth
gain space
This is better achieved by
fixed appliance
Headgear and trans-platal
arch can also be used to
derotate molar teeth.
35. 6. Uprighting of molars
Premature loss of primary
second molar leads to mesial
tipping of first molar and
space loss.
Uprighting of this tooth
gain space.
Either removable or fixed
appliances can be used for
this purposes.
36. 7. Proclination of Incisors
This can be done only if the incisors are already
retorclined (e.g. in class II div 2 patients)
