How you feel when you wake up says a lot about the night you had and the day to come. Sleep plays an important role in our physical and mental health. Some of the benefits of sleep revealed by recent researches is mentioned here.
Today more and more people face sleep deprivation, caused mostly by stress, lots of work and other factors. Here you find more about this subject and few strategies to overcome sleep deprivation.
Free webinar on " Sleep Deprivation "
Sleep deprivation is inadequate quantity or quality of sleep. Sleep is as important to the human body as food and water, but many of us don’t get enough sleep. Sleep deprivation is when an individual sleeps less than usual or does not sleep at all for a short period of time – usually lasting one to two days.
Purpose:
The purpose of this webinar is to aware the people about the causes, effects and symptom of sleep deprivation. In this session also teach treatments that how to fight with sleep deprivation to fix it.
memory can decline to some extent as we get older, but there are other more important lifestyle factors that can either give you a sharp mind or one that’s slow as molasses. And if you don’t have these areas of your life optimized, you may experience cognitive decline even before your reach thirty.

Sleep is defined as a state when the motor activity and senses are suspended; there is partial or total unconsciousness, and the voluntary muscles of the body are not active. It is more reversible than coma or hibernation, yet responds less to any kind of stimulus than silent wakefulness. Sleep is very important, as it is the rest cycle of the body.

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

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
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
Recomendações da OMS sobre cuidados maternos e neonatais para uma experiência pós-natal positiva.
Em consonância com os ODS – Objetivos do Desenvolvimento Sustentável e a Estratégia Global para a Saúde das Mulheres, Crianças e Adolescentes, e aplicando uma abordagem baseada nos direitos humanos, os esforços de cuidados pós-natais devem expandir-se para além da cobertura e da simples sobrevivência, de modo a incluir cuidados de qualidade.
Estas diretrizes visam melhorar a qualidade dos cuidados pós-natais essenciais e de rotina prestados às mulheres e aos recém-nascidos, com o objetivo final de melhorar a saúde e o bem-estar materno e neonatal.
Uma “experiência pós-natal positiva” é um resultado importante para todas as mulheres que dão à luz e para os seus recém-nascidos, estabelecendo as bases para a melhoria da saúde e do bem-estar a curto e longo prazo. Uma experiência pós-natal positiva é definida como aquela em que as mulheres, pessoas que gestam, os recém-nascidos, os casais, os pais, os cuidadores e as famílias recebem informação consistente, garantia e apoio de profissionais de saúde motivados; e onde um sistema de saúde flexível e com recursos reconheça as necessidades das mulheres e dos bebês e respeite o seu contexto cultural.
Estas diretrizes consolidadas apresentam algumas recomendações novas e já bem fundamentadas sobre cuidados pós-natais de rotina para mulheres e neonatos que recebem cuidados no pós-parto em unidades de saúde ou na comunidade, independentemente dos recursos disponíveis.
É fornecido um conjunto abrangente de recomendações para cuidados durante o período puerperal, com ênfase nos cuidados essenciais que todas as mulheres e recém-nascidos devem receber, e com a devida atenção à qualidade dos cuidados; isto é, a entrega e a experiência do cuidado recebido. Estas diretrizes atualizam e ampliam as recomendações da OMS de 2014 sobre cuidados pós-natais da mãe e do recém-nascido e complementam as atuais diretrizes da OMS sobre a gestão de complicações pós-natais.
O estabelecimento da amamentação e o manejo das principais intercorrências é contemplada.
Recomendamos muito.
Vamos discutir essas recomendações no nosso curso de pós-graduação em Aleitamento no Instituto Ciclos.

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.

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.
2. Did you have a good night’s sleep, and
are well rested and ready for the day?
3. Or, did you toss and turn and took a very long
time to fall asleep, only to wake up tired?
4. Sure, most of us leads stressful lives, but our
busy lives must not interfere in our sleeping!
5. If you are waking up tired
with your brain out of order,
and drinking lots of coffee
to stay awake, read on to
learn about some sleeping
techniques, so you can have
a good night’s sleep!
7. Most humans needs 5-6 sleep cycles each night to wake up refreshed
and ready for the day without feeling tired and groggy. As you lay in
bed and are drifting off to sleep, it doesn't seem like much is
happening, but after you fall asleep, a lot happens! Your brain swings
into action, telling your body how to sleep. As you slowly fall asleep,
you begin to enter the five different stages of sleep shown below.
8. Stage 1: In this stage, your brain
gives the signal to your muscles to
relax. It also tells your heart to
beat a little slower, and your body
temperature drops a bit.
Stage 2: After a little
while, you enter
stage 2, which is a
light sleep. You can
still be woken up
easily during this
stage. For example,
if you hear a car
horn outside, you'll
probably wake up.
Stage 3: When you're in this stage, you're in a
deeper sleep, also called slow-wave sleep. Your
brain sends a message to your blood pressure to
get lower. Your body isn't sensitive to the
temperature of the air around you, which means
that you won't notice if it's a little hot or cold in
your room. It's much harder to be awakened when
you're in this stage, but some people may
sleepwalk or talk in their sleep at this point.
Stage 4: This is the deepest sleep yet and is
also considered slow-wave sleep. It's very hard
to wake up from this stage of sleep, and if you
do wake up, you're sure to be out of it and
confused for at least a few minutes. Like they
do in stage 3, some people may sleepwalk or
talk in their sleep when going from stage 4 to
a lighter stage of sleep.
Stage 5: You are in the Rapid
Eye Movement stage. R.E.M.
stands for rapid eye
movement. Even though the
muscles in the rest of your
body are totally relaxed, your
eyes move back and forth
very quickly beneath your
eyelids. The R.E.M. stage is
when your heart beats faster
and your breathing is less
regular. This is also the stage
when people dream!
The Sleep Cycle Done 5-6 Times Each Night
9. 1People dream during R.E.M. sleep, the period that follows the deepest stage of sleep.
Everybody has dreams, although some people have a tough time remembering them.
No one knows for sure why people dream. Some scientists think that dreams are your
brain's way of making sense of what happened during the day. Others think that
dreams allow your brain to sort through the events of the day, storing the important
stuff and getting rid of the junk. Some scientists say that dreams are a clue to what
you're worried about or thinking about. No matter what, dreams are important part of
sleep, and you should look forward to them!
Why Do People Dream While Sleeping
11. Stick To A Schedule
1
Stick to a regular routine by going to bed at the same time each
night, and waking up at the same time each morning. Yes, setting
an alarm to tell you when to go to bed and to wake up works!
12. Develop A Bedtime Ritual
2
Taking a warm bath, reading a book or newspaper, going on a jog/run,
praying, talking with a spouse or family, drink a warm drink, etc. Developing
a bedtime ritual you follow every night helps you sleep!
13. The Bedroom Should Only Have A Bed 3
The bedroom should be only for sleeping and getting ready for the day. That
means things like TV’s, smart phones, tablets, computers, and other
electronic distractions should be out of the bedroom in every house!
14. Cut Out The Caffeine/Alcohol 4
Drinking drinks with caffeine or alcohol, or using tobacco, can
mean a long night. Limit caffeine, alcohol, and tobacco
consumption to ensure a good night’s rest!
15. Be Physically Active 5
Research shows that people who are physically active fall asleep faster and
have a better rest. The reason, your body is worn out and needs the sleep to
repair itself! Plus, sleep keeps you from getting sick more often!
16. Get Yourself Away From Screens
6
This is a hard one for geeks/nerds, but to fall asleep faster,
get yourself away from screens one hour before bedtime.
The blue light from screens can mess up your sleep!
17. Keep Your Bedroom Cool And Dark 7
Your bedroom should be between 68-72 degrees while sleeping. Also,
your bedroom should be totally dark. If you sleep during the daylight, get
a eye mask! And sleep with a fan to keep yourself cool!
18. Don’t Stay Up Late To Get Work Done
8
Staying up late to get work done for the next day is not only bad for
getting a good night’s sleep, it leaves you with a sleep deficit. And it also
leaves your tired for the next day, put the work off and get some rest!
19. Turn Your Alarm Clock Around
9
Yes, laying in bed watching the time go by on your alarm clock can
hamper yourself from falling asleep. A simple fix, turn the alarm clock
around facing the other way, and use an old-fashioned alarm clock!
20. Can’t Fall Asleep, Get Out Of Bed!
10
Tossing and turning and can’t fall asleep? Get out of bed, walk around,
read something, drink a warm drink, and try to fall asleep again in 30
minutes. Tossing and turning in bed leads to a bad sleep!

23. 3
Without a good night’s sleep, your brain begins to microsleep.
Microsleep refers to brief moments of sleep that occur when you're
normally awake. You can't control microsleep, and you might not be
aware of it. For example, have you ever driven somewhere and then not
remembered part of the trip? If so, you may have experienced
microsleep. If you're listening to a lecture, for example, you might miss
some of the information or feel like you don't understand the point. In
reality, though, you may have slept through part of the lecture and not
been aware of it.
24. 3
Sleep helps your brain work properly. While you're sleeping, your brain is preparing for
the next day. It's forming new pathways to help you learn and remember information.
Studies show that a good night's sleep improves learning. Whether you're learning
math, how to play the piano, how to perfect your golf swing, or how to drive a car,
sleep helps enhance your learning and problem-solving skills. Sleep also helps you pay
attention, make decisions, and be creative. Studies also show that sleep deficiency
alters activity in some parts of the brain. If you're sleep deficient, you may have
trouble making decisions, solving problems, controlling your emotions and behavior,
and coping with change. Sleep deficiency also has been linked to depression, suicide,
and risk-taking behavior. Losing just 1-2 hours of sleep each night can lead towards a
sleep deficiency!
25. 3
The damage from sleep deficiency can occur in an instant (such as a car crash), or
it can harm you over time. For example, ongoing sleep deficiency can raise your
risk for some chronic health problems. It also can affect how well you think,
react, work, learn, and get along with others. Simply, sleep plays a vital role in
good health and well-being throughout your life. Getting enough quality sleep at
the right times can help protect your mental health, physical health, quality of
life, and safety. The way you feel while you're awake depends in part on what
happens while you're sleeping. During sleep, your body is working to support
healthy brain function and maintain your physical health. In children and teens,
sleep also helps support growth and development.
26. 3
Sleep Deficits And The Workplace
Research has shown that people who are sleep deprived make mistakes more
often, can’t solve problems as well, and aren’t as creative. Tired employees
are also more likely to participate in cyberloafing — watching cute cat videos
instead of working. There is also research connecting sleep loss and work
performance. And, sleep-deprived workers are less ethical. Plus, sleep plays
a role in less employee productivity and effectiveness. Companies needs to
institute e-mail free weekends, sleep education, paying attention to one’s
circadian rhythms, and allowing employees to nap during the day.
Napping for 20-30
minutes a day, even if
one is not sleep
deprived, leads to an
improved performance
and effectiveness!

8-9
Hours
And yes, reading a
bedtime story to your kids
each night helps them fall
asleep faster. And they
perform better in school!
On average, some need more, some need less sleep!
28. Sleep Apnea Is Very Dangerous!
Do you snore, or do you know of someone who snores? If a
person snores loudly and constantly, it could be sleep apnea.
29. What Is Sleep Apnea?
When you sleep, your
airway should remain
open, so you can breathe
while you are sleeping.
In Sleep Apnea, your
tongue collapses and
blocks your airway.
Causing you to wake up.
If your airway is blocked, you body signals your
brain to wake up briefly to re-open the airway.
Sleep Apnea relaxes the tongue, causing you to
block your airway, and forcing your body to get
the airway back open. People with sleep apnea
re-awake up to hundreds of times each night.
30. Treatment For Sleep Apnea
If you think you have Sleep Apnea, see your doctor and complete a sleep
study. If found to have Sleep Apnea, treatment ranges from a dental device
to a CPAP machine, which forces your airway open when it closes.
31. Bottomline, Sleep Is Important
Most research shows that we don’t get enough sleep, and our
deficit is seriously hurting our productivity, our physical health,
even our mental well being. After all, becoming more productive,
efficient, and effective in every other area of our life is pointless if
we cheat our minds and bodies the rest they deserve.
“Each day has enough trouble of its own,” -Jesus
32. It’s important you get a good night’s sleep each night so you are well-rested
and ready to go the next day! Get into the habit of getting 8-9 hours of
sleep each night, you will be glad you did! Good night, sleep tight!
