Yoga practices such as specific poses, breathing techniques, and meditation can benefit those with respiratory disorders by improving flexibility, strength, coordination, respiratory function, and reducing stress and anxiety. Certain poses like Meru Asana, Padhasta Asana, Ushtra Asana, and pranayamas including Bhastrika, Pranava, and Kukkriya can effectively target different areas of the lungs to optimize breathing. Nasal cleansing techniques like Neti and nasal irrigation also help promote sinus and respiratory health.

If you or your partner snore regularly or occasionally, you might wonder how to stop snoring. You’re not alone. In adults between 30 and 60 years old, 44% of men and 28% of women snore1 regularly. Over age 60, around half of all people snore2 regularly.
Snoring is the sound that results from air passing through your airway when it is partially blocked. Tissues at the top of your airway touch each other and vibrate, making you snore3. Virtually all adults snore occasionally.
POST COVID MANAGEMENT –an ayurvedic approach by Dr soumya Patil.pptxDr Soumya Patil
POST COVID MANAGEMENT AN AYURVEDIC APPROACH
A COMPREHENSIVE INITIATIVE TO UNDERSYTAND THE PATHOLOGY OF COVID AND TRY TO BREAK ITS PATJHOLOGY THROUGH AYURVED AAND GOIVE SYMPTOMATIC RELIEF AS WELL AS HELP PPL IN REGAINING THE IMMUNITY AND STOPPING THE RECURRENCE OF COVID .
AIMS AND OBJECTIVES:
To Understand The Post COVID Symptoms And Their Management Through Ayurvedic Treatment Modalities.
INTRODUCTION:
COVID- 19, the recent virus outbreak declared as Pandemic by WHO threatened the world by its fast spreading nature and is yet creating an alarmed situation throughout the world by Post Covid Symptoms
A recent study on Post-COVID manifestation of symptoms showed that about 72 percent of participants had major complaints, only 10.8 percent of survivors assessed in the study had no symptoms or manifestations post COVID.
Depending on the Immunity of a person, COVID-19 can differ in its impact on different people.
Similarly, Post-COVID conditions, which has become a grave issue in recent times, have also taken a major toll on people's lives.
Post covid manifestations can be understood as Agnimandya avasta and Dhatukshaya avastha in individual .
Hence modalities like Agnivardhaka and Rasayana property medication can be choosen .
Rasayana therapy is the one which brings the normalcy in Immune system by improving fundamentals like dhatu, agni, srotas. And ultimately fights against Post Covid Symptoms.
DEFINATION OF POST COVID
A/C to NICE :
"Signs and symptoms that develop during or after an infection consistent with COVID‑19, continue for more than 12 weeks and are not explained by an alternative diagnosis. It usually presents with clusters of symptoms, often overlapping, which can fluctuate and change over time.
CONCLUSION:
Much about the aftermath of the illness remains unclear or unknown, and there is even uncertainty about the term "recover" in the coronavirus context
According to Ayurveda concepts, there will be Dhatu-Kshaya & AgnimandyaAvastha Post COVID infection.
Hence, Dhatuposhana and Rasayana sevana drugs for at-least 45 days and to combat the residual effects of the virus on the body and to combat toxicity produced from antiviral drug therapy.
Deepana Pachana drugs may be used in case of abdominal discomfort .
Depending upon individuals Agni status and availability of medicine following drugs may be prescribed.
Ayurveda has enormous potential and treatment options which are available for enhancing the immunity and systemic illness and positively influence mental health , thus helpful in combating Post covid symptoms .
Hence Ayurveda should be used as main treatment modality for Heath restoration and Prevention of recurrence, rather than a adjuvant therapy in treating post COVID symptoms .

Sleep apnoea in pcos by dr alka mukherjee nagpur m.s. indiaalka mukherjee
Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), the most common endocrine disorder of pre-menopausal women, is characterized by chronic hyperandrogenism, oligoanovulation, obesity and insulin resistance. Importantly, PCOS women are at increased risk for glucose intolerance, type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular disorders. Recent reports indicate an unexpectedly high prevalence of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) in PCOS. Alterations in sex steroids (i.e. high androgen and low estrogen levels) and increased visceral adiposity in PCOS could potentially contribute to the increased prevalence of OSA in this disorder. There is some evidence to suggest that there may be strong associations between the presence and severity of OSA and the metabolic disturbances that characterize PCOS. Causal mechanisms in the link between PCOS and OSA remain to be elucidated. Clinicians who manage PCOS patients should be aware of the high prevalence of OSA in these patients and systematically evaluate these women for sleep disturbances.

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
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.
