The document summarizes several theories of human growth and development:
- Erik Erikson's psychosocial development theory which describes development through 8 stages from infancy to late adulthood. Each stage involves resolving a psychosocial crisis.
- Jean Piaget's cognitive development theory which outlines 4 stages of cognitive development from infancy through adulthood.
- Lawrence Kohlberg's theory of moral development which describes development through 3 levels and 6 stages of increasingly sophisticated moral reasoning.
- Sigmund Freud's psychosexual development theory which proposes that personality develops through 5 psychosexual stages from infancy to young adulthood, each focused on pleasure in a different erogenous zone.
Effect of Nesting on Posture Discomfort and Physiological Parameters of Low B...iosrjce
A study was conducted to determine the effectiveness of “nesting” among low birth weight infants in
NICU of selected government hospital of Delhi. An experimental study was conducted in which low birth weight
infants (birth weight 1.00-2.5kg) were stratified into three groups based on their birth weight (1.0-1.5kg, 1.5-
2.0kg, 2.0-2.5kg). The samples consisted of 60 low birth weight infants; 30 in experimental group and 30 in
control group. Pre-test Post-test control group design was used in which nesting was provided in experimental
group 9 hours per day for 5 days. Posture, comfort and physiological parameters were assessed before and
during administration of nesting. A significant improvement in posture (t=12.64) was observed in experimental
group during application of nesting. A significant reduction in the discomfort was observed in experimental
group as compared to control group (t=10.65).Low birth weight infants exhibit comparatively stable
physiological parameters during the period of nesting.
This presentation is aimed at giving the basic information of a neonate classification on basis of gestational age and the birth weight. Prematurity has been discussed in details. I have also included the growth charts that can be used for growth monitoring in term as well as preterm babies.

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
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
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.

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!
Tom Selleck Health: A Comprehensive Look at the Iconic Actor’s Wellness Journeygreendigital
Tom Selleck, an enduring figure in Hollywood. has captivated audiences for decades with his rugged charm, iconic moustache. and memorable roles in television and film. From his breakout role as Thomas Magnum in Magnum P.I. to his current portrayal of Frank Reagan in Blue Bloods. Selleck's career has spanned over 50 years. But beyond his professional achievements. fans have often been curious about Tom Selleck Health. especially as he has aged in the public eye.
Follow us on: Pinterest
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

18. THEORY
• It defines cognitive acts as ways in which the mind organize and
adapts to its environment (i.e., mental mapping).
Important concepts :-
SCHEMA – refers to an individual’s cognitive structure or framework of
thought.
SCHEMATA – Categories that an individual forms in his or her mind to
organise and understand the world.
o A young child has only a few schemata which gradually increased.
Adults use a wide variety of schemata.
19. Cont..
ASSIMILATION – Ability to incorporate new ideas, objects and
experiences into the framework of one’s thoughts.
o Growing child will perceive and give meaning to new information
according to what is already known and understood.
ACCOMMODATION – Ability to change a schema to introduce new
ideas, objects or experiences. Changes the mental structure so that
new experiences can be added.
EQUILIBRATION – A mechanism to achieve a balance between
applying previous knowledge (assimilation) and changing behaviour to
account for new knowledge (accommodation).
20. Stage 1 – SENSORIMOTOR STAGE
• AGE – birth to 2 yr
• Development proceeds from reflex activity to imagining and solving
problems through the senses and movement.
• Infant or toddler learns about reality and how it works.
• Infant or toddler does not recognize that objects continue to be in
existence, even if out of the visual field.
21. Stage 2 – PREOPERATIONAL STAGE
• AGE – 2 to 7 yr
• Child learns to think in terms of past, present and future.
• Child moves from knowing the world through sensation and movement
to pre-logical thinking and finding solutions to problems.
• Child is egocentric
• Child is unable to conceptualize and requires concrete examples.
22. Stage 3 – CONCRETE OPERATIONAL
STAGE
• AGE – 7-11 YR
• Child is able to classify, order and sort facts.
• Child moves from pre-logical thought to solving concrete problems
through logic.
• Child begins to develop abstract thinking.
23. Stage 4 – FORMAL OPERATIONAL STAGE
• AGE – 11 yr to adulthood
• Person is able to think abstractly and logically.
• Logical thinking is expanded to include solving abstract and concrete
problems.
25. THEORY
• Moral development is a complicated process involving the acceptance
of the values and rules of society in a way that shapes behaviour.
• Classified in a series of levels and behaviors.
• Is sequential but people do not automatically go from 1 stage or level
to the next as they mature.
• Stages or levels of moral development cannot be skipped.
26. LEVEL 1 – PRECONVENTIONAL
MORALITY
Age :–
birth to 2 yr
Stage 0
Age :–
2 to 4 yr
Stage 1
Age :–
4 to 7 yr
Stage 2
27. STAGE 0 – EGOCENTRIC JUDGEMENT
• The infant has no awareness of right or wrong.
STAGE 1 – PUNISHMENT-PBEDIENCE ORIENTATION
• At this stage, children cannot reason as mature members of society. Children view
the world in a selfish way, with no real understanding of right or wrong.
• Child obeys riles and demonstrations acceptable behaviour to avoid punishment
and to avoid displeasing those who are in power, and because the child fears
punishment from a superior force, such as a parent.
• A toddler typically is at the first substage of the preconventional stage, involving
punishment and obedience orientation, in which the toddler makes judgements
based on avoiding punishment or obtaining a reward.
28. • Physical punishment and with holding privileges tend to give the toddler a negative
view of morals.
• Withdrawing love and affection as punishment leads to feelings of guilt in the toddler.
• Appropriate discipline includes providing simple explanations of why certain
behaviors are unacceptable, praising appropriate behavior, and using distractions
when the toddler is headed for an unsafe action.
STAGE 2 – INSTRUMENTAL RELATIVIST ORIENTATION
• Child conforms to rules to obtain rewards or have favors returned. Child’s moral
standards are those of others, and child observes them either to avoid punishment or
obtain rewards.
• Preschooler is in preconventional stage of moral development.
• In this stage, conscience merges and the emphasis is on external control.
29. LEVEL 2 – CONVENTIONAL
MORALITY
• The child conforms to rules to please others. Has increased awareness of
others’ feelings.
• A concern for social order begins to emerge. A child views good behaviour
as that which those in authority will approve.
• If the behaviour is not acceptable, the child feels guilty.
Stage 3 • Age :- 7 to 10 yr
Stage 4 • Age :– 10 to 12 yr
30. STAGE 3 – GOOD BOY OR NICE GIRL ORIENTATION
• Conformity occurs to avoid disapproval or dislike by others.
• Involves living up to what is expected by individuals close to the child or what
individuals generally expect of others in their roles such as daughter, son, brother,
sister & friend.
• Being good is important and is interpreted as having good motives and showing
concern about others. Being good also means maintain mutual relationships, such
as trust, loyalty, respect and gratitude.
STAGE 4 – LAW AND ORDER ORIENTATION
• Child has more concern with society as a whole. Emphasis is on obeying laws to

34. THEORY
COMPONENTS OF THE THEORY :-
1. Levels of awareness
2. Agencies of the mind
3. Concept of anxiety and defense mechanisms
4. Psychosexual stages of development
35. Levels of awareness
UNCONSCIOUS LEVEL OF AWARENESS
• Unconscious is not logical and is governed buy the Pleasure Principle, which refers to
seeking immediate tension reduction.
• Memories, feelings, thoughts or wishes are repressed and are not available to the
conscious mind.
• These repressed memories, thoughts or feelings, if made prematurely conscious, can cause
anxiety.
PRECONSCIOUS LEVEL OF AWARENESS
• The Preconscious is called the subconscious.
• Includes experiences, thoughts, feelings or desires that might not being immediate
awareness but can be recalled to consciousness.
• Can help to repress unpleasant thoughts or feelings and can examine and censor certain
wishes and thinking.
36. Cont..
CONSCIOUS LEVEL OF AWARENESS
• Conscious mind is logical and is regulated by the Reality Principle.
• Includes all experiences that are within an individual’s awareness and that the
individual is able to control and includes all information that is remembered easily and
is immediately available to an individual.
37. Agencies of the mind
THE ID
• Source of all drives, present at birth, operates according to the Pleasure
Principle.
• Does not tolerate uncomfortable states and seeks to discharge the tension and
return to a more comfortable constant level of energy.
• Acts immediately in an impulsive, irrational way and pays no attention to the
consequences of its actions, therefore, often behaves in ways harmful to self
and others
• Primary process is a psychological activity in which the id attempts to reduce
tension – not capable, therefore, a secondary psychological process must
develop if the individual is to survive. When this occurs, the structure of
second system of the personality, the ego, begins to take form.
38. Cont..
THE EGO
• Functions include reality testing and problem solving follows the Reality
Principle
• Begins its development during the fourth or fifth month of life
• Emerges out of the id and acts as an intermediary between id and external
world.
• Emerges because the needs, wishes & demands of id require appropriate
exchanges with the outside world of reality.
• The ego distinguishes between things in the mind and things in the external
world.
39. Cont..
THE SUPEREGO
• Necessary part of socialization that develops during the phallic stage at 3 to 6
yr of age
• Develops from interactions with the child’s parents during the extended
period of childhood dependency
• Includes internalization of the values, ideals, & moral standards of parents
and society
• Consists of the conscience and the ego ideal.
• Conscience refers to capacity for self evaluation and criticism, when moral
codes are violated, the conscience punishes the individual by instilling guilt.
40. Anxiety and defense mechanisms
• Ego develops defences or defense mechanisms to fight off anxiety
• Defense mechanisms operate on an unconscious level, except for
suppression, so the individual is not aware of their operation.
• Defense mechanisms deny, falsify or distort reality to make it less
threatening.
• An individual cannot survive without defense mechanisms, however, if
the individual becomes too extreme in distorting reality, interference
with healthy adjustment and personal growth may occur.
41. Psychosexual stages of development
• Human development proceeds through a series of stages from infancy
to adulthood
• Each stage is characterized by the inborn tendency of all individuals to
reduce tension and seek pleasure.
• Each stage is associated with a particular conflict that must be
resolved before the child can move successfully to the next stage.
• Experiences during the early stages determine an individual’s
adjustment patterns and the personality traits that the individual has as
an adult.
42. Stage 1 – ORAL STAGE
• AGE – Birth to 1yr
• During this stage, the infant is concerned with self-gratification.
• The infant is all id, operating on the Pleasure Principle and striving for
immediate gratification of needs.
• When the infant experiences gratification of basic needs, a sense of
trust and security begins.
• The ego begins to emerge as the infant begins to see self as separate
from the mother; this marks the beginning of the development of a
sense of self.
43. Stage 2 – ANAL STAGE
• AGE - 1 to 3 yr
• Toilet training occurs during this period, and the child gains pleasure
from the elimination of the feces and from their retention.
• The conflict of this stage is between those demands from society and
the parents and the sensations of pleasure associated with the anus,
• The child begins to gain a sense of control over instinctive drives and
learns to delay immediate gratification to gain a future goal.
44. Stage 3 – PHALLIC STAGE
• AGE – 3 TO 6 Yr
• The child experiences pleasurable and conflicting feelings associated with the genital
organs.
• The pleasures of masturbation and the fantasy life of children set the stage for the
Oedipus complex.
• The child’s unconscious sexual attraction to and wish to possess the parent of the
opposite sex, the hostility and desire to remove the parent of the same sex, and the
subsequent guilt about these wishes is the conflict the child faces.
• The conflict is resolves when the child identifies with the parent of the same sex.
• The emergence of the superego is the solution to and the result of these intense
impulses.
45. Stage 4 – LATENCY STAGE
• AGE – 6 to 12 yr
• Tapering off of conscious biological and sexual urges.
• The sexual impulses are channelled and elevated into a more culturally
accepted level of activity
• Growth of ego functions and the ability to care about and relate to
others outside the home is the task of this stage of development.
46. Stage 5 – GENITAL STAGE
• AGE – 12 yr and beyond
• It emerges at adolescence with the onset of puberty, when the genital
organs mature.
• The individual gains gratification from his or her own body.
• During this stage, the individual develops satisfying sexual and
emotional relationships with members of the opposite sex.
• The individual plans life goals and gains a strong sense of personal
identity.
