The document discusses neuroplasticity and auditory processing disorder (APD). It summarizes that neuroplasticity refers to the brain's ability to change and rewire itself based on experiences. Early studies found brain maps could change in response to damage or skill learning. APD refers to difficulties processing auditory information in less than optimal environments and may be associated with language or learning issues. Identification involves behavioral and electrophysiological tests, and risks include certain birth factors or brain injuries. Management may involve therapies to strengthen auditory processing skills.

Structure and function of the left temporal lobeOzella Brundidge
The Structure and Function of the Left Temporal Lobe
The temporal lobe is made up of the superior temporal gyrus (STG), middle temporal gyrus (MTG), and the inferior temporal gyrus (ITG). The auditory center (BA 41/42) is located in the anterior STG and the Wernicke’s area (BA 22) is located in the posterior STG. Both the pSTG and pMTG are activated by phonemic discrimination and are involved with processing speech and language. Verbal information is integrated along the superior temporal gyrus. The auditory center and the pSTG are involved with phonological processing and semantics. Sentence comprehension begins in the auditory center and the posterior superior temporal sulcus (pSTS). Semantics continues in the angular gyrus which is located in the inferior parietal lobe. Decreased activation along the left STG negatively affects reading skills.
The left MTG is structurally and functionality connected to the primary language processing regions through the ventral and semantic language pathways. The left MTG stores verbal knowledge and obtains semantic information from the sound-to-meaning network which courses through the MTG. Visual and auditory decoding activate the left MTG. Functional connectivity between the left MTG and the frontal lobe is quite significant. The left MTG share connectivity between the precentral, middle frontal, dorsomedial, and ventromedial cortices, along with the inferior frontal gyri. The left MTG is also significantly connected to the right MTG, inferior occipital gyri and angular gyri bilaterally, and to the limbic system’s posterior cingulate gyri.
The fusiform gyrus is located on the underside of the left inferior temporal gyrus. It engages the adjacent occipital gyrus to form the visual word form area. The VWFA is a critical component of the mature reading and writing network. There are phonological and semantic clusters located in posterior IFG which is responsible for grapheme-phonemic conversion and audiovisual integration of syllables. The posterior temporal lobe and adjacent occipital gyrus is referred to as the occipitotemporal region (OTR). The OTR is critically important to visual and auditory language processing. Damage to the left inferior temporal lobe is associated with visual anomia, an inability to name visual objects.

Participation by panelist Joshua Steinerman, Einstein-Montefiore.
Description: Interactive media in the form of software and videogames can be seen as a vehicle to harness neuroplasticity and benefit cognitive health across the lifespan. This field is still in its infancy, but emerging evidence suggests that specific populations may benefit from specific interventions.
Three leading researchers, from Duke University, University of Rochester, and Albert Einstein-Montefiore, will discuss the opportunities and challenges they see to benefit younger and older minds in both healthy and clinical environments. Dr. D. Bavelier will review what is meant by neuroplasticity, how it is assessed, and what it implies for cognitive health. She will review the opportunities offered by using games as a medium to foster neuro-plasticity as well as the main challenges in developing games that fosters neuroplasticity. Dr. Joshua Steinerman will discuss practical and methodological issues in conducting technology trials in cognitive aging and related neuropsychiatric disorders. Examples from ongoing intervention studies will be presented. Dr. Doraiswamy will discuss the opportunities and obstacles for emerging technologies to be adopted by the healthcare community in the next few years.

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!

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
Generalised disease of the prostate due to hormonal derangement which leads to non malignant enlargement of the gland (increase in the number of epithelial cells and stromal tissue)to cause compression of the urethra leading to symptoms (LUTS

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

109. Myth 1: It’s all in our genes. Reality : A big component of our lifelong brain health and development depends on what we do with our brains. Environment plays 80% of a role while genes are only 20% responsible. Genes predispose us, not determine our fates. • Individuals who lead mentally stimulating lives, through education, occupation and leisure activities, have reduced risk of developing Alzheimer’s. Studies suggest that they have 35-40% less risk of manifesting the disease” - Dr. Yaakov Stern, Division Leader of the Cognitive Neuroscience Division of the Sergievsky Center at Columbia University.
110. Myth 2: The field of Cognitive/ Brain Fitness is too new to be credible. Reality : The field rests on solid foundations dating back decades --- what is new is the number and range of tools that are now starting to be available for healthy individuals. • “ Rigorous and targeted cognitive training has been used in clinical practice for many years. Exercising our brains systematically is as important as exercising our bodies.” - Dr. Elkhonon Goldberg, neuropsychologist, clinical professor of neurology at New York University School of Medicine, and disciple of Alexander Luria. • "Today, thanks to fMRI and other neuroimaging techniques, we are starting to understand the impact our actions can have on specific parts of the brain." - Dr. Judith Beck, Director of the Beck Institute for Cognitive Therapy and Research.
111. Myth 3: Medication is and will remain the only evidence-based intervention for a number of brain-related problems. Reality : Cognitive training programs are starting to show value as complements to drug-based interventions. • “ Cognitive training rests on solid premises, and some programs already have very promising research results"- Professor David Rabiner, Senior Research Scientist and Director of Psychology and Neuroscience Undergraduate Studies at Duke University.
112. Myth 4: We need to buy very expensive stuff to improve our brains. Reality : Every time we learn a new skill, concept or fact, we change the physical composition of our brains. Lifelong learning means lifelong neuroplasticity. • “ Learning is physical. Learning means the modification, growth, and pruning of our neurons, connections–called synapses– and neuronal networks, through experience...we are cultivating our own neuronal networks.” - Dr. James Zull, Professor of Biology and Biochemistry at Case Western University,
113. Myth 5: Schools should just focus on basic skills like Reading and Math. Reality : “Mental muscles,” such as working memory, are fundamental to academic performance and are currently overlooked by the school system. • “ I don't see that schools are applying the best knowledge of how minds work. Schools should be the best place for applied neuroscience, taking the latest advances in cognitive research and applying it to the job of educating minds.” - Dr. Arthur Lavin, Associate Clinical Professor of Pediatrics at Case Western School of Medicine.
114. Myth 6: On-the-job training is the only way to train one's mind. Reality : Computer-based programs can be more effective at training specific cognitive skills. • “ What research has shown is that cognition, or what we call thinking and performance, is really a set of skills that we can train systematically. And that computer-based cognitive trainers or “cognitive simulations” are the most effective and efficient way to do so.” - Dr. Daniel Gopher, Professor of Human Factors Engineering at Technion Institute of Science .
115. Myth 7: Brain exercise is only for seniors. And, only about memory. Reality : People of all ages can benefit from a variety of regular brain exercises. For active professionals, managing stress and emotions is often a good first step. • “ It is important to understand the role of emotions: they are not “bad”. They are very useful signals. It is important to become aware of them to avoid being engulfed by them, and learn how to manage them.” - Dr. Steenbarger, Associate Professor of Behavioral Sciences at SUNY Upstate Medical University, and author of the book Enhancing Trader Performance.
116. Myth 8: This all sounds too soft to be of real value to managers and professionals. Reality : There is nothing soft about the hard science-based training of specific cognitive and emotional skills. • “ I can easily see the relevance in highly competitive fields, such as professional sports and military training.” - Dr. Bradley Gibson, Director of the Perception and Attention Lab at University of Notre Dame .
117. Myth 9: Videogames are always a waste of time. Reality : Scientifically-designed, computer-based programs can be a good vehicle for training specific skills. For example, it has been shown that short term memory can be expanded by such programs. • “ We have shown that working memory can be improved by training.” – Dr. Torkel Klingberg, Director of the Developmental Cognitive Neuroscience Lab at Karolinska Institute.
118. Myth 10: This means kids will spend more time playing videogames. Reality : In Japan – the world’s earliest adopter of brain-related videogames- overall home videogame sales have declined, with children playing less over time. Interestingly, adults in Japan have started to play brain-related video games more, and we are starting to see the same trend with adults in the US and Europe.
