Centre for Yoga Therapy, Education and Research (CYTER) of Sri Balaji Vidyapeeth in Pondicherry, India offers integrative, holistic and therapeutic benefits for patients, educating future Yoga therapists and developing an understanding through scientific research. Being a part of a medical institution CYTER enhances learning curve of the trainees.
There are Post Graduate Certificate (PGC) progressing on to Post Graduate Diploma in Yoga Therapy (PGDYT) and further to MPhil in Yoga Therapy (for those candidates possessing PGDYT from SBV or Kaivalyadhama along with a Master’s Degree in any stream). The major highlight of the new programs is adoption of Choice Based Credit System (CBCS) recommended by the NAAC and UGC as a major reform in higher education. As a corollary to this system, a competency based approach has been proposed for the new programs.
The proposed program gives immense flexibility for learners to pursue diverse careers as Yoga Therapists and enables creation of a pool of trained Yoga therapists possessing requisite skills and competence to impart sound Yoga therapy in different medical conditions.
The system provides ample opportunities for self-directed learning, guided by extensive mentoring, small group learning and reflective practice within the campus as well as in their work places.
It provides a new career pathway for the students and teachers to synergize the capacity building in Yoga Therapy education.
The program ultimately aims to create human resource capable of cutting edge research into fundamental aspects of Yoga as well as its applications in different medical conditions.

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.
Ethanol (CH3CH2OH), or beverage alcohol, is a two-carbon alcohol
that is rapidly distributed in the body and brain. Ethanol alters many
neurochemical systems and has rewarding and addictive properties. It
is the oldest recreational drug and likely contributes to more morbidity,
mortality, and public health costs than all illicit drugs combined. The
5th edition of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders
(DSM-5) integrates alcohol abuse and alcohol dependence into a single
disorder called alcohol use disorder (AUD), with mild, moderate,
and severe subclassifications (American Psychiatric Association, 2013).
In the DSM-5, all types of substance abuse and dependence have been
combined into a single substance use disorder (SUD) on a continuum
from mild to severe. A diagnosis of AUD requires that at least two of
the 11 DSM-5 behaviors be present within a 12-month period (mild
AUD: 2–3 criteria; moderate AUD: 4–5 criteria; severe AUD: 6–11 criteria).
The four main behavioral effects of AUD are impaired control over
drinking, negative social consequences, risky use, and altered physiological
effects (tolerance, withdrawal). This chapter presents an overview
of the prevalence and harmful consequences of AUD in the U.S.,
the systemic nature of the disease, neurocircuitry and stages of AUD,
comorbidities, fetal alcohol spectrum disorders, genetic risk factors, and
pharmacotherapies for AUD.

7. Major Changes in Medical
Education Curricula
1. Until 1850: Basically OJT (on-the-job training)
Basic science was not developed widely
2. 1850~1950: Discipline-based curriculum
Microbiology, Physiology, Public health…
3. 1950s~60s: Organ-system-based curriculum
Cardiology, Gastroenterology…
Basic science and clinical medicine are integrated
4. 1970s~: PBL(problem-based learning)
Faculty-resource-intensive
5. 2000~: Outcome-based education
8. Innovative Curriculum
The SPICES model
Harden, 1984
Systematic Traditional
Student-centred Teacher-centred
Problem-based Passive acquisition
Integrated Discipline-based
Community Hospital-based
Elective Standardized
Systematic Opportunistic
10. Why Outcome-based
Education?
Information explosion
Changing public expectation
Accountability
Informing curriculum decisions
Integrating teaching and assessment
Planning the continuum of education
11. Examples of OBE (1)

15. Points of OBE
Integrated competencies (e.g.
critical thinking and professionalism)
are more clearly targeted.
Assessment for comprehensive
performance is more emphasized
Nowadays “competency” is often used instead of
“outcome” if mentioned for curriculum
(e.g. competency-based curriculum)
16. Quality Assurance of Medical
Education in Japan
Admission policy
Combination of nationwide achievement test and schools’
own examination (most have interview)
Diploma (graduating) policy
No external examiner, schools’ own policy
Institutional systems for quality assurance
Not specific
National standards for quality assurance
Guidelines for curriculum: Nationwide core curriculum +
Common Achievement Test (for 4th year)
Quality assurance for undergraduate clinical teaching is
difficult to implement
17. What is accreditation?
All the higher education institutes must prove their
quality of education.
Each faculty/school must check if the education
system follows detailed educational standard and
issues an inspection report.
Professional evaluators visit the faculty/ school to
check if any gaps between the report and the site visit.
After evaluators confirm the level of the faculty/school,
they issue a certification.
In another 5 to 10 years’ period each faculty/school
must take the next accreditation.
18. Accreditation System in Japan
In 2002, the Higher Education bureau, MOE
declared the amendment of the 3rd
paragraph of Article 69 of the School
Education Act.
All the universities have to undergo self-
evaluation process and accreditation by a
certified body every 7 years.
This has become effective since 2004.
No specific accreditation system for medical
education until 2017, when JACME was
started.
19. Program Accreditation in
Japan
Post-graduate professional schools (Law,
Business, Accounting, and Midwifery) must
undergo self-evaluation and take external
“program evaluation” by accreditation bodies
every 5 years according to the School
Education Act.
Program certification only for post-graduate
professional schools.
20. Pharmaceutical Education
Accreditation in Japan
Japan Accreditation Board for Pharmaceutical
Education (JABPE) is now starting self-evaluation.
Full-scale external evaluation will start in 2012. After
2012, all pharmacy schools will take accreditation.
Program certification by JABPE is voluntary activities.
They are non-governmental bodies. These activities
aspire their educations to be fit to their global
standards.
21. Why Accreditation?
To assure the standardized medical
education
To prepare for practitioners’ mobility
to another country
In 2010 ECFMG states that all the
examinees must graduate from
internationally accredited medical schools
after 2023
https://www.ecfmg.org/accreditation/
22. Wrap Up
Historically medical education curricula have
been changed with the change in the basic
science, educational theory/ concept, etc.
Nowadays outcome (competency)-based
education is a trend.
For quality assurance accreditation for each
university/school/faculty is another change. In
Japan accreditation system for medical
curricula was started in 2017 by JACME.
Editor's Notes
These are reference books for this class. You do not have to buy them but they help you understand the contents if you like.
This is the figure of whole educational system including primary education (elementary school), secondary education (junior high and high school) and higher education. 12-year primary and secondary education is also called as K-12 (from kindergarten). In higher education level, students have to spend at least four years to complete the study. Medical, dental and pharmaceutical curricula is set as six years.
As for the medical career, after six years of medical school they take medical license examination in Japan. After they pass the exam they must go through two-year mandatory training to be registered as a medical doctor by the Ministry of Health. After that many doctors enter any residency program for 3-5 years. Some specialties like internal medicine have also subspecialty training such as cardiology, gastroenterology, etc. to become a subspecialty specialist. After such programs, medical doctors should take continuing medical education to maintain their knowledge and skills for the future practice.
This is the relationship between the curricula and related assessment systems. All the applicants must take entrance examination for their preferable medical schools. Most applicants take the test provided by the national test center and also the test prepared by each medical school.
CAT stands for Common Achievement Test, for those who completed all the preclinical education courses. Here clinical medicine means practical training for medical students, so preclinical education includes in-class education of clinical medicine. CAT consists of CBT (computer-based testing) and OSCE (objective structured clinical examination). The same system is applied for dental and pharmaceutical students.
Final-year health professional students can take license examination. Currently license examination has only paper-based multiple-choice questions (MCQs).
This is the slide for the changes in medical education curricula. Before 1850 all the training was on-the-job, that means students helped senior doctors practice in the clinical settings and learned how such role models were doing. No formal education was offered because at that time theoretical background was too weak to teach.
In the middle of 19th century, microbiology, physiology, public health, etc. had developed as basic sciences for medical practice. They became discipline for clinical medicine taught in the training facilities such as colleges or universities. In that period, basic sciences (anatomy, biochemistry, pathology…) and clinical medicine (internal medicine, surgery…) were separated. This system is called as discipline-based curriculum. Such education was continued for about 100 years but some medical schools are still using this system.
In 1951 Case Western University in Ohio State, the USA, has started organ-system-based curriculum. The main difference from discipline-based education is to integrate basic sciences and clinical medicine in each organ-based system. For example, cardiology course has anatomy and physiology of heart and vessels, how to have medical interview with heart disease patients, etc. In the discipline-based curriculum, some students feel less motivated because they feel difficulty in using the knowledge of basic sciences only for heart disease patients.
In late 1960s McMaster University in Canada has started problem-based learning. PBL consists of scenario-based group discussion and self-learning after small-group activity. Normally faculty facilitator does not teach the student but just give students feedback or directional change so students will be able to learn by themselves. This is related with the paradigm change of education into student-centered system. However, some medical schools adopted PBL but abolished after several years because it is too faculty-resource-intensive.
From 2000 onward, outcome-based education becomes a major curricular framework. Both students and teachers target at from 5 to 12 outcomes or competence domains as the requirement for each student. Outcomes mostly include public health, professionalism, etc. because they are regarded very important in every context.
SPICES model was proposed by Professor Harden in 1984. Traditional curricula were using mainly right items but Harden told left items would be more innovative and demanded by future students. Student-centered, problem-based and integrated curricula are described in the previous slide.
Community-based education became more important because patients’ length of stay became shorter and it would be very difficulty for students to understand the longer clinical course of the patients.
Elective curricula is one of the basic concepts of student-centered curriculum. Systematic curriculum means quality assurance of students’ learning. For example, if clinical students do not directly see SLE patients, their learning for such patients may have weakness. To fill such a gap, medical educators are able to use simulation, virtual patient (computer software of clinical reasoning with patients’ information), case-based discussion, etc.
This is the figure of outcome-based education. Please imagine the level of freshman medical students in the beginning. To train them to be an independent physician, you should consider assessment and educational environment first related with the outcomes, and then construct what to learn and how to learn.
These are the reasons why outcome-based education is needed. The amount of information needed for medical students became much more than before. People think they need more patient safety than before because around the year 2000 medical accidents became more publicly known issues. Accountability for medical education is also more demanded. Local governments see medical education more critically so disclosing key information became more popular.
From educational changes, integration of teaching and assessment became more important than before. Continuum of medical education from undergraduate to postgraduate and life-long learning is also a newer topic.
ACGME is the accrediting body for the graduate education (residency) in the USA. They proposed this 6 outcome model in 1998. Outcome project has much information regarding assessment tools, lower level competencies, etc.
CanMEDS 2000 is an initiative to make medical education outcome-based. Their outcomes seem more nonspecific and vague statements.
IIME is the medical education institute of worldly renown medical educators and Chinese leaders working in the US. When they proposed GMER, some medical educators protested the movement because they thought the same global framework for medical education seems unrealistic for developing countries.
Not only the north American countries but also UK have initiated the movement of OBE. Three-layers of circle are more concrete for students and teachers to understand.
