Presentation on the established and new drug therapies in drug resistant tuberculosis. Also, includes few basic slides on first line therapy for drug sensitive Tuberculosis.
This presentation intends to throw light on the Tuberculosis burden of our country with the prime focus on the rapid emergence of drug resistant TB.Along with it,the recent RNTCP guidelines for case detection,early diagnosis and complete pharmacotherapy and treatment duration of different cases of tuberculosis.
Recent guidelines in the treatment of tuberculosisSHOEBULHAQUE1
The treatment of tuberculosis (TB) typically involves a combination of antimicrobial medications to effectively combat the bacteria causing the infection, primarily Mycobacterium tuberculosis. The standard treatment regimen for drug-susceptible TB usually consists of a combination of four first-line drugs: isoniazid, rifampicin, ethambutol, and pyrazinamide.
Nowadays, we are using some other regimens in multiple drug resistant tuberculosis.

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.

This includes all relevant anatomy and clinical tests compiled from standard textbooks, Campbell,netter etc..It is comprehensive and best suited for orthopaedicians and orthopaedic residents.
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

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.

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!

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

28. Management Guidelines for Patie nts with Documented
or Strongly Suspecte d Extensively Drug-Resista nt
Tuberculo sis (XDR-TB)
1. Use pyrazinamide and any first-line oral agents that may be
effective.
2. Use an injectable agent to which the strain is susceptible, and
consider an extended duration of use (12 months or possibly
the whole treatment period). If the strain is resistant to all
injectable agents, use of one that the patient has not
previously received is recommended.a
3. Use a later-generation fluoroquinolone, such as moxifloxacin,
high-dose levofloxacin, or possibly gatifloxacin.b
4. Use all second-line oral bacteriostatic agents (para-aminosalicylic
acid, cycloserine, and ethionamide or prothionamide) that have
not been used extensively in a previous regimen or any such
agents that are likely to be effective.
5. Add bedaquiline or delamanid and one or more of the
following drugsc:
clofazimine, linezolid, amoxicillin/clavulanic acid, clarithromycin,
and carbapenems such as imipenem/cilastatin and
meropenem.
6. The simultaneous use of bedaquiline and delamanid is
not recommended at the moment in view of the current
lack of information on the potential of adverse reactions
when these drugs are administered together.
7. Consider treatment with high-dose isoniazid if low-level
resistance to this drug is documented.
8. Consider adjuvant surgery if there is localized disease.
9. Enforce strong infection-control measures.
10. Implement strict directly observed therapy and full adherence
support as
well as comprehensive bacteriologic and clinical monitoring.
30. TDR TB
• No specific management guidelines mentioned by WHO/ RNTCP.

• Tdr-tb is the term used for tb strains that showed in vitro resistance to all first and
Second line drugs tested.
• Even changing the treatment to reserve drugs namely co amoxiclav and
Clarithromycin showed little or no improvement in one study
• Center for disease control and prevention termed the disease “untreatable”
• In addition to mutation in the tdr strains,many morphological changes have been found like
budding or branching forms of MTB,MTB with thicker walls etc.
32. Bedaquiline (BDQ)
• New class of drug - Diarylquinone.
• Specifically targets Mycobacterial ATP Synthase.
• Strong Bactericidal and sterilizing activity.
• June 2013 – WHO published Interim policy guidance for use of BDQ
in conjunction with WHO recommended MDR-TB STRs.
• 2016 – RNTCP is introducing BDQ through conditional access
programme at 6 sites in India.
33. Criteria to receive BDQ (Apex Committee):
• Adults >18y with PTB
• Non pregnant females using non-hormonal birth controlmethods.
• Absence of arrhythmias or Controlled stable arrhythmiasas it prolongs QT interval.
Bedaquiline (400mg daily for 2 weeks, then2oomg thrice weekly for total 6 months )
with optimized background regimen (OBR) is indicated in-
a) MDR/RR-TB cases with resistance to all SLI OR FLQ(grp 2,3)
b) XDR-TB with resistance TO ANY OR ALL FLQ WITH ALL OR ANY SLI

35. Shorter MDR-TB regimen – WHO issued it in 2016 to be used in
MDR/RR cases regardless of age and HIV status. Here give 7 drugs in IP and
treatment duration is 9-12 mths.

36. Weight bands...
• Recommendation of drug doses according to weight have been
made since 2010 itself.
• New (2016) guidelines by Govt of India Central TB Division provides
number of FDCs according to weight bands.
• 4 weight bands for Adults, 7 for children.
• This is to prevent further drug resistance and assured bioavailability
by increasing drug compliance.
