In this Understanding Cannabinoids Slide Share we discuss the Endocannabinoid System, the major cannabinoids in cannabis & their benefits, the Entourage (or Ensemble) Effect and how it all works together.
Cannabinoids, being a set of terpenophenolic compound present in cannabis, it refers to a group of substances that are structurally concerned to tetrahydrocannabinol.
Endocannabinoid System - Literature ReviewLouis Cady, MD
In this brief review of the literature, Dr. Louis Cady of the Cady Wellness Institute reviews the endocannabinoid system and the role it plays in bridging the connection between mind and body, modulating anxiety, inflammation, memory and other physiological processes. Nothing in this presentation suggests that any of the products mentioned are appropriate for the treatment, remediation, cure, or prevention of any disease or illness. It does appear, however, that this natural, indwelling, genetically passed down endocannabinoid system may have major implications for holistic physicians and health care practitioners, and for the patients that they serve.

Enjoy your journey through this slide deck of Geriatric Population. Geriatric Clinician Practice. Your Medicare, Long-Term Care Documentation.
Imagine if writing a progress note was really as simple as the note featured on the title slide. This physician progress note style filled the charts of a 120 bed nursing facility in rural Texas. Walking down the facility hallways I observed many unstable conditions and behaviors. Staff were numb to the yelling. When I questioned about the yelling "we don't medicate behaviors" was the most popular response. I needed to be medicated after a few hours of being there. Collecting data had never been this difficult. Stable and clinical documentation now had a whole new meaning.
This month I am instructing Nurse Practitioner students on Medicare and Long-Term Care Coding and Documentation. Revising this lecture reminds me of all of the clinician types I have met during my long-term care travels.
1. Amazing Clinicians
◾ They know state and federal regulations and practice perfectly.
◾ They don't cross your path very often.
◾ When you meet them you must stop, listen and absorb all their knowledge.
2. So-So Clinicians
◾ They don't know that there are regulations on state and federal levels.
◾ They are pretty common and are doing enough with meaningful practices.
◾ When you meet them you must stop, talk and they absorb your knowledge.
3. Corner Cutters
◾ They are not doing enough and practice out of compliance.
◾ Their colleagues are also clueless, there is guilt by association.
◾ When you meet them, run in the opposite direction.
What types of geriatric clinicians are crossing your path? The documentation is very telling as to the practice type. Are they awesome, so-so, or of the corner cutter breed?

Cannabis (also known as marijuana) is the most frequently used illicit psychoactive substance in the world, with more than 500 components. Cannabinoids are psychoactive compounds extracted from the cannabis plants (cannabis stavia), and classified mainly into 5 classes: classical cannabinoids, non-classical cannabinoids, hybrid cannabinoids, aminoalkylindoles, and eicosanoids cannabinoids. Cannabinoids are endogenous in humans, animals and plants, or synthetically produced. In recent years, the use of synthetic cannabinoids as a substitute for cannabis has been on the increase. However, there is also some concern about their potential effects on users. Cannabidiol and tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) are the most studied cannabinoids and both interact with endocannabinoid receptors in various human tissues, so there are a trend to use cannabinoids in Medicine and Pharmacology. Cannabis plants produce many compounds of possible medical importance. In this article, we discuss the natural cannabis and synthetic cannabinoids and their extraction, their principle components, their abuses, and their effects on the human body, and their roles in medicine and pharmacology, also we discus the biosynthesis of cannabinoids, and the synthetic cannabinoid classification system.
PMS, PMDD, anxiety disorders and more have all been proven to benefit from alternative therapies including acupuncture and MMJ. Join esteemed members of the medical marijuana community to discuss the importance of legalization, usage education and medicinal benefits on premenstrual disorders.

Introduction
The term “cannabis” refers to the drug-containing forms of the hemp plant, Cannabis sativa,
which is an herbaceous annual. There are two varieties of Cannabis sativa – resin-producing and
fibre-producing. In Cannabis sativa, there are 420 chemical compounds, many of which are
common to other plants. There are 60 compounds that are found only in Cannabis sativa, and
these compounds are referred to as cannabinoids. Of these compounds, l-trans-Δ

tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) is the most potent psychoactive agent in cannabis, and THC
accounts for most, but not all, of the psychoactive effects of cannabis. Common names for
cannabis or its products include marijuana, hashish, hashish oil, charas, bhang, ganja, and dagga.
Marijuana, hashish and hashish oil are the cannabis preparations most common to North
America.
History
2700 BC – 1800’s Cannabis plant was used for manufacturing rope; marijuana was used for
its mild intoxicating effects as it was considered less harmful than alcohol.
1920’s – 1930’s Public concern was raised over the effects of marijuana on individuals and
society (“menace of marijuana”). Legislation was enacted to outlaw the
use of marijuana, which was considered to be a narcotic.
1960’s – 1970’s Increased use of cannabis, primarily in the form of marijuana. Survey in
1972: more than two million people in the U.S.A. reported daily use of
marijuana. Survey in 1977: 60% of young adults in the U.S.A. reported
some experience (?) with marijuana. A 1979 survey in Ontario revealed
that approximately 50% of students aged 16 or over reported some use of
marijuana in the preceding 12 months.
1978 U.S.A.-sponsored project using the herbicide, paraquat, was initiated in an

attempt to destroy cannabis crops in Mexico. It failed. U.S.A. citizens
were smoking cannabis products containing paraquat, which can produce
lung toxicity.
1980’s In the early 1980’s, the use of marijuana began to stabilize. In 1982, 42%
of high school students in the U.S.A. reported use of the drug in the
previous year and 5.5% used it daily. The figures in Ontario were similar.

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

Local Advanced Lung Cancer: Artificial Intelligence, Synergetics, Complex Sys...Oleg Kshivets
Overall life span (LS) was 1671.7±1721.6 days and cumulative 5YS reached 62.4%, 10 years – 50.4%, 20 years – 44.6%. 94 LCP lived more than 5 years without cancer (LS=2958.6±1723.6 days), 22 – more than 10 years (LS=5571±1841.8 days). 67 LCP died because of LC (LS=471.9±344 days). AT significantly improved 5YS (68% vs. 53.7%) (P=0.028 by log-rank test). Cox modeling displayed that 5YS of LCP significantly depended on: N0-N12, T3-4, blood cell circuit, cell ratio factors (ratio between cancer cells-CC and blood cells subpopulations), LC cell dynamics, recalcification time, heparin tolerance, prothrombin index, protein, AT, procedure type (P=0.000-0.031). Neural networks, genetic algorithm selection and bootstrap simulation revealed relationships between 5YS and N0-12 (rank=1), thrombocytes/CC (rank=2), segmented neutrophils/CC (3), eosinophils/CC (4), erythrocytes/CC (5), healthy cells/CC (6), lymphocytes/CC (7), stick neutrophils/CC (8), leucocytes/CC (9), monocytes/CC (10). Correct prediction of 5YS was 100% by neural networks computing (error=0.000; area under ROC curve=1.0).

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!
