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.

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

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.

2. Tips and Tricks in Vascular Imaging
LOWER EXTREMITY CTA
• Clinical context
• Scanning and Contrast Technique
• Postprocessing
• Interpretation & Reporting
3. Tip 1: Clinical Context
Role of Imaging in PAD*
*Peripheral Artery Disease
4. DSA
Peripheral Artery Disease (PAD)
• manifestation of atherosclerosis in arteries
supplying blood to lower extremities
Clinical Symptoms:
• at 'stress‘: intermittent claudiaction
perfusion pressure (ABI<0.8) can‘t keep up
with increased demand when walking;
ischemic tissue is muscle
• at 'rest': critical limb ischemia
perfusion pressure<baseline demand;
ischemic tissue is skin, nerve- connective
tissue
5. DSA
Diagnosis and Staging of PAD
• symptoms +
• ankle-brachial-index
• poor correlation of symptoms and ABI with
number, location and severity of lesions
à i.e. calf claudiaction can be caused by
isolated vs a combination of iliac or
femoropolpliteal lesions
Role of Imaging NOT diagnosis / staging
• mapping of lesions to symptoms
for treatment planning
10. Scanning and CM Injection
• no fancy scanner needed: any CT scanner
with ~1mm thickness (≥16-slice MDCT);
• ideally isotropic resolution (sub-millimeter)
Account for slow bolus transit
in diseased arteries:
• long injection (~35s)
• scan slow (40s)
• add delayed acquisition, if needed

17. Tips and Tricks for Lower Extremity CTA
Postprocessing
• greatest challenge in lower extremity CTA:
difference between quick read vs. painful
(literally) scrolling through images
• axial (transverse) images inadequate, except
in acute ischemia (i.e. thromboembolic)
• need longitudinal cross sections (MPR/CPR)
• ideally, mapping of lesions needs a ‘map’:
‘multipath curved planar reformations’
• try to delegate (3D-Lab, trained technologist)
if routinely performing runoff CTAs

21. ‘Surgical (endovascular) Segments’
• aorto-iliac =‘suprainguinal’ =‘inflow’
• common fem. a. important landmark;
bypass target/source
[deep fem.a.] [important collateral if SFA
occluded; post amput.]
• femoropoplital a. ‘infra-inguinal’ = ‘runoff’
reconstitution of pop. a.
(pop.: P1, P2, P3) above (P1) or below (P3) knee
• below knee aa. only relevant in CLI,
can ignore in claudicants
• pedal arteries only CLI, bypass targets
22. Systematic Approach to Reading Lower
Extremity CTA
answer clinical questions rather than listing lesions
• intermittent claudication?
critical limb ischemia ?
-- determines how you read scan
• organize first by leg, and then by station
Right/left lower extremity
- aortoiliac (inflow disease [above inguinal lig.])
- (common fem a.); - (deep femoral artery)
- femoropopliteal artery; SFA, P1, P2, P3
- below knee (infrapop.) runoff: 2 vessels cross ankle)
- (pedal)
23. Tips and Tricks in Vascular Imaging
LOWER EXTREMITY CTA: SUMMARY
• Clinical context
■ goal is to map lesions to clinical symptoms
■ ‘stress’ (claudication) vs. ‘resting’ (CLI) ischemia
• Scanning and Contrast Technique
■ inject long, and scan slow
• Postprocessing
■ curved planar reformats
• Interpretation & Reporting
■ don’t read study without knowing symptoms
■ answer clinical question rather listing lesions
24. SAM Question
Which of the following statements regarding lower extremity CTA
is correct ?
A. the diagnosis of peripheral artery disease is fundamentally
based on imaging
B. symptoms and ankle-pressure-index (ABI) not only establish the
diagnosis of peripheral artery disease, but also accurately
localize the anatomic level of obstruction
C. the role of imaging in peripheral artery disease is not making
the diagnosis, but to map (localize) obstructive lesions for
treatment planning
D. in patients with calf claudication, evaluation of the distal below-
knee arteries is important for treatment planning
