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.

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.

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
1. THYROID HORMONE:
• Gross and Microscopic Anatomy of the Thyroid Gland.
• Production of Thyroid Hormones.
• Transport of T3 and T4
• Actions of Thyroid Hormones.
• Regulation of Thyroid Hormones.
• Hyper- and Hypothyroidism
2. Histology of theThyroid Gland
• The thyroid gland contains numerous follicles, composed of
epithelial follicle cells and colloid.
Also, between follicles are Para-follicular cells, which produce
Calcitonin.
3. TheThyroid Gland – Histology:
Squamous epithelial cells, cuboidal cells (follicle cells).
Gland is composed of hollow spheres, called colloid follicles.
Colloid fills the follicle cavities.
Follicle cells produce thyroglobulin.
4. Thyroid Hormones:
There are two biologically active thyroid hormones:
- Tetraiodothyronine(T4; usually called thyroxine)
- Triiodothyronine (T3)
Derived from modification of tyrosine(amino acid).
5. Differencesbetween T4 and T3:
• The thyroid secretes about 80mg of T4, but only 5mg of T3 per
day.
• However, T3 has a much greater biological activity about 10
folds than T4.
• An additional 25mg/day of T3 is produced by peripheral
monodeiodination of T4 by enzyme called 5’ Monodeiodenase.
6. Major sourcesof iodine:
• Thyroid hormones are unique biological molecules in that they
incorporate iodine in their structure.
• Thus, adequate iodine intake either through diet or water is
required for normal thyroid hormone production.
• Major sources of iodine are:
- iodized salt
- iodated bread
- dairy products
- shellfish
• Minimum requirement(RDA): 75 micrograms/day
• US intake: 200 - 500 micrograms/day
7. TheNext Step: Production of Thyroglobulin:
Pituitary produces TSH, which binds to follicle cell receptors.
The follicle cells of the thyroid produce thyroglobulin.
Thyroglobulin is a very large glycoprotein.
Thyroglobulin is released into the colloid space, where it’s
tyrosine residues are iodinated by I+
.
This results in formation of monoiodotyrosine or diiodotyrosine.
8. Transport of Thyroid Hormones
• Thyroid hormones are lipid-soluble.
• Thus, they are found in the circulation associated with binding
proteins:
- Thyroid Hormone-Binding Globulin(TBG) (~70% of hormone)
- Pre-albumin(Transthyretin) (~15%)
- Albumin (~15%)
• Less than 1% of thyroid hormone is found free in the circulation.
• Only free and albumin-bound thyroid hormone is biologically
available to tissues.
• Among the amount of thyroid hormone production and release T4
is approximately 95% and T3 is 5%. But biological active is T3 so
T4 is converted to T3 in peripheral tissues by the enzyme
5’monodeiodinase and become active.
9. Conversion of T4 to T3
T3 has much greater biological activity than T4.
A large amount of T4 (25%) is converted to T3 in peripheral
tissues.
This conversion takes place mainly in the liver and kidneys. The
T3 formed is then released to the blood stream.
In addition to T3, an equal amount of “Reverse T3” may also be
formed. This has no biological activity.
T3 MIT + DIT
Reverse T3 DIT + MIT
10. Regulation of Thyroid HormoneLevels:
• Thyroid hormone synthesis and secretion is regulated by two
main mechanisms:
- An “auto regulation” mechanism, which reflects the
available levels of iodine.
- Regulation by the hypothalamus and anterior pituitary.
11. Auto regulation of Thyroid HormoneProduction
• The rate of iodine uptake and incorporation into thyroglobulin is
influenced by the amount of iodide available:
- Low iodide levels increase iodine transport into follicular cells
- High iodide levels decrease iodine transport into follicular cells
Thus, there is negative feedback regulation of iodide transport by
iodide.
12. Neuro endocrineRegulation of Thyroid Hormones: Roleof
TSH
• Thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) is produced by thyrotroph cells of
the anterior pituitary.
• TSH is a glycoprotein hormone composed of two subunits:
- alpha subunit (common to LH, FSH, TSH, hCG)
- TSH beta subunit, which gives specificity of receptor binding and
biological activity.
13. Other FactorsRegulating Thyroid HormoneLevels
• Diet: a high carbohydrate diet increases T3 levels, resulting
in increased metabolic rate (diet-induced thermo genesis).
• Low carbohydrate diets decrease T3 levels, resulting in
decreased metabolic rate.
• Cold Stress: increases T3 levels in other animals, but not in
humans.
• Any condition that increases body energy requirements (e.g.,
pregnancy, prolonged cold) stimulates hypothalamus
TRH TSH.
14. Actionsof Thyroid Hormones:
Thyroid hormones are essential for normal growth of tissues,
including the nervous system.
Lack of thyroid hormone during development results in short
stature and mental deficits (cretinism).
Thyroid hormone stimulates or increase Basal Metabolic
Rate(BMR).
15. • Required for GH and prolactin production and secretion
• Required for GH action
• Increases intestinal glucose reabsorption (glucose
transporter)
• Increases mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation (ATP
production)
• Increases activity of adrenal medulla (sympathetic; glucose
production)
• Induces enzyme synthesis
• Result: stimulation of growth of tissues and increased
metabolic rate. Increased heat production (calorigenic effect)
16. Effectsof Thyroid Hormoneon Nutrient Sources:
• Effects on protein synthesis and degradation:
-increased protein synthesis at low thyroid hormone levels
(low metabolic rate; growth)
-increased protein degradation at high thyroid hormone levels
(high metabolic rate; energy)
• Effects on carbohydrates:
-low doses of thyroid hormone increase glycogen synthesis
(low metabolic rate; storage of energy)
- high doses increase glycogen breakdown (high metabolic
rate; glucose production)
17. OneMajor Target Geneof T3: TheNa+
/K+
ATPasePump:
Pumps sodium and potassium across cell membranes to
maintain resting membrane potential
Activity of the Na+
/K+
pump uses up energy, in the form of ATP
About 1/3rd of all ATP in the body is used by the Na+
/K+
ATPase
T3 increases the synthesis of Na+
/K+
pumps, markedly
increasing ATP consumption(BMR increases).
T3 also acts on mitochondria to increase ATP synthesis(size and
number of mitochondria will increase).
The resulting increased metabolic rate increases thermo genesis
(heat production).
18. Thyroid HormoneActionswhich IncreaseOxygen
Consumption
• Increase mitochondrial size, number and key enzymes.
• Increase plasma membrane Na-K ATPase activity.
• Increase futile(ineffective) thermogenic energy cycles.
• Decrease super oxide dismutase activity.
19. Effectsof Thyroid Hormoneson theCardiovascular
System
• Increase heart rate
• Increase force of cardiac contractions
• Increase stroke volume
• Increase Cardiac output
• Up-regulate catecholamine receptors
20. Effectsof Thyroid Hormoneson theRespiratory System
• Increase resting respiratory rate
• Increase minute ventilation
• Increase ventilatory response to hypercapnia and hypoxia
21. EffectsThyroid Hormonesin Growth and Tissue
Development
Increase growth and maturation of bone.
Increase tooth development and eruption.
Increase growth and maturation of epidermis, hair follicles and
nails.
Increase rate and force of skeletal muscle contraction.
22. Effectsof Thyroid Hormoneson theNervousSystem
• Critical for normal CNS neuronal development
• Enhances wakefulness and alertness
• Enhances memory and learning capacity
• Required for normal emotional tone
• Increase speed and amplitude of peripheral nerve reflexes
23. Effectsof Thyroid Hormoneson theReproductiveSystem
• Required for normal follicular development and ovulation in the
female
• Required for the normal maintenance of pregnancy
• Required for normal spermatogenesis in the male
24. How isHypothyroidism Related to Goiter?
• During iodine deficiency, thyroid hormone production
decreases.
• This results in increased TSH release (less negative feedback).
• TSH acts on thyroid, increasing blood flow, and stimulating
follicular cells and increasing colloid production.
25. Midwest – theGoiter Belt
• If goiter is due to decreased I, then thyroid gland enlarges – called
endemic or colloidal goiter.
• Pituitary gland TSH stimulate thyroid gland to produce TH, but
the only result is that the follicles accumulate more and more
unusable colloid.
• Cells eventually die from over activity and the gland atrophies.
