The document discusses health systems strengthening (HSS) programs and approaches in Ethiopia. There is no clear or common understanding of what HSS entails. It can be viewed as focused on health subsystems, diseases, or construction of facilities. The key HSS building blocks experienced in Ethiopia include health financing, workforce, information systems, supply management, and governance. Financing for HSS comes from various global and bilateral partners as well as the Ethiopian government. Recommendations include focusing on the big picture of comprehensive HSS, establishing networking, and promoting harmonization of the HSS concept.

HEALTH SECTOR TRANSFORMATION IN QUALITY
This document provides guidelines for quality improvement in Ethiopian health facilities. It discusses key quality improvement concepts like quality planning, improvement, and control. Quality is defined as care that is safe, effective, patient-centered, timely, efficient, and equitable. Quality improvement is presented as a cyclical process involving setting standards, assessing performance against standards, identifying and prioritizing problems, analyzing causes, developing solutions, and implementing and evaluating action plans. The principles of client focus, provider focus, systems approach, teamwork, effective communication, and data use are also outlined.
Human resource for health in Nepal
Human Resource for Health (HRH) refers to all people engaged in actions that enhance health, including clinical staff, public health professionals, researchers, community health workers, and health management personnel. HRH is critical for achieving universal health coverage and sustainable development goals. Key HRH indicators tracked by WHO include the number of health workers per 10,000 population and their distribution by occupation, region, workplace, and gender. Nepal faces significant shortages and maldistribution of HRH compared to WHO recommendations, with only 16 health workers per 10,000 people and most located in the hills, despite half the population living in the Terai. Strengthening HRH production and deployment is vital to improving health system access and quality in Nepal.

Safe Motherhood Program in Nepal: Challenges and Way Forward
The safe motherhood programme is one of the priority programme of Nepal. The goal of the National Safe Motherhood Program is to reduce maternal and neonatal morbidity and mortality and to improve the maternal and neonatal health through preventive and promotive activities as well as by addressing avoidable factors that cause death during pregnancy, childbirth and postpartum period. This presentation incorporates historical context, introduction, major achievements, actors, what Went Well, what didn’t go well, limitations, challenges, way forward of Safe Motherhood Program in Nepal.
Life cycle approach to child and adolescent health
The document discusses a life course approach to child and adolescent health. It outlines how health at each stage of development impacts later stages. Key risks to health are described for different life periods like pregnancy, neonatal, early childhood, and early school age. Across all periods, the document emphasizes the importance of nutrition, prevention of illness, care for illness, and creating an environment to support healthy development. Both prevention and care are crucial, with a shifting balance over the life course.
Nhp 2017
The National Health Policy 2017 sets ambitious targets for reducing infant and maternal mortality rates, and eliminating diseases. However, many of these targets are the same as those set in 2002 which were not achieved. The 2017 policy has now pushed the deadlines to 2019 or later. It aims to achieve universal health coverage through increasing access, quality and lowering costs. A key focus is preventive healthcare and increasing public health spending to 2.5% of GDP. Fact-checking found the 2017 policy recycled many 2002 targets that were already missed.
Health systems strengthening
This document discusses health systems strengthening from a global perspective. It defines health systems strengthening as initiatives that improve the core functions or "building blocks" of a health system, with the goal of permanently improving system performance rather than just filling gaps. The document distinguishes between supporting a health system through improving inputs versus strengthening it by facilitating comprehensive changes to performance drivers. It identifies key priorities for facilitating health systems strengthening as the health workforce, cost-effective primary health care interventions and service delivery models, progressive decentralization, results-based financing, and enhanced integrated management approaches.

Community participation in Health Systems
The document summarizes two programs that used community participation to strengthen health systems responsiveness in Liberia and Guatemala. In Liberia, maternity waiting homes were established with input from communities and traditional midwives. This increased skilled birth attendance. In Guatemala, a census approach and casa maternas (maternity homes) were used. Community priorities helped define the program, and findings showed increased knowledge of pregnancy dangers and facility births. Both programs demonstrated how community collaboration can effectively strengthen rural health services.

Federalism and devolutiion in ethiopia final
This document discusses federalism and ethnic diversity in Ethiopia. It notes that Ethiopia has 84 ethnic groups, with the Oromo and Amhara being the largest. While Ethiopia attempted cultural homogenization in the past, it transitioned to an ethnic federal system in the 1990s, establishing regional states along ethnic lines with self-governance powers. The 1995 constitution established this federal system and enshrined principles like ethnic self-determination, equality, and equity in development.
Disabilities in ethiopia
There is a perception in Ethiopian societies that disabilities are a result of punishment by spiritual figures, and families with disabled children are often labeled as such. An estimated 15 million Ethiopians, or 17.6% of the population, have a disability, and 95% of those live in poverty. Children with disabilities in Africa encounter significant economic, political, and social barriers that hinder their development and wellbeing, as they often lack basic needs and are excluded from policy agendas. While 19% of Americans have a disability, the employment rate for those with disabilities is much lower in Ethiopia than in the United States, and disabilities are viewed differently between the two countries.

Dr. Salma Burton's presentation outlines the six key building blocks of an effective health system: 1) service delivery, 2) health workforce, 3) health information systems, 4) medical products/vaccines/technologies, 5) health financing, and 6) governance. Each building block plays an important role in ensuring people have access to safe, effective, and quality health services. Strong leadership and coordination across these areas through a systems thinking approach can help improve overall population health outcomes.

Bancroft Research In Action
This document summarizes research conducted in Uganda to improve health sector funding and accountability. Surveys found frequent stock-outs of essential malaria and antibiotic drugs in health clinics due to funding gaps, shortages, and procurement challenges. A separate survey of 9 districts found a lack of financial transparency and accountability, as well as distrust between civil society organizations and district leaders. However, the research resulted in increased health sector funding, a priority on essential medicines, and district plans to improve accountability. Advocacy efforts must frame issues in policy contexts and have clear targets, disseminate findings widely through partnerships, and continue follow-up efforts to create impact.
Bigdeli Translating Knowledge Into Policy (2)
- Health Equity Funds (HEFs) were piloted in Cambodia in the late 1990s and early 2000s to improve access to healthcare for the poor by paying user fees.
- Evaluations of the early HEF pilots demonstrated their impact on access and produced evidence on best practices for design and implementation.
- This evidence was disseminated through publications and forums, influencing national policies like the HEF Strategic Framework and guidelines that expanded HEFs across Cambodia in a harmonized way.
- The success of translating HEF pilots' knowledge into national policy was due to factors like a receptive political context, credible and timely evidence from local studies, and alignment of HEFs with multiple stakeholders' objectives.

National Health Accounts in Egypt
This document summarizes key findings from National Health Accounts conducted in Egypt between 1994-2009. It finds that private out-of-pocket spending remains the largest source of health financing. While total health spending has increased over time, government spending as a percentage of total health spending and of the overall government budget is among the lowest in the region. There are also inequities in spending between rich and poor and urban and rural populations. The document calls for increased public investment in health and reforms to address these inequities and increase the role of comprehensive insurance.
Eastern Caribbean Health Systems Assessment
The document summarizes health system assessments conducted in 7 Eastern Caribbean countries in 2011.

A "Cube" View of Health Systems Strengthening
This document proposes viewing health systems strengthening through a "cube" model, with three dimensions: inputs, stewardship functions, and health system building blocks. It suggests that inputs alone do not determine health outcomes and that stewardship functions and strengths across different health system building blocks also drive performance. The cube model provides a comprehensive framework for understanding how different elements interact to impact health system strengthening results.
Health Systems 2020 Overview 2011
Health Systems 20/20 is a cooperative agreement led by Abt Associates with a ceiling of $125 million from 2006-2012. It focuses on financing, governance, operations, and capacity building in global health systems. It provides technical assistance to numerous countries in Africa, Asia, and Latin America on issues like national health accounts, health insurance schemes, performance-based financing, and evaluating HIV/AIDS programs. It aims to disseminate findings and best practices through workshops, conferences, and its website.
Strengthening Health Systems: From Global to Local
There is conceptual confusion around health system strengthening (HSS) with multiple approaches being taken. This can lead to fragmentation and lack of agreed upon standards. However, the multiplicity of approaches also allows responsiveness to differing local contexts. Going forward it will be important to embrace more nationally-driven HSS agendas with support for national capacity. National commitment and leadership on HSS may be more important than global funding. Research needs to be more locally-driven and responsive to build an evidence base. Country ownership can motivate local researchers and facilitate links to policymakers.
Strengthening Health Systems Through Research, Education, and Action
The document discusses strengthening health systems through research, education, and action. It describes how Harvard School of Public Health conducts research on major health system topics. It educates students through various programs and executive courses. It also collaborates with governments, international agencies, and NGOs on applied research and health system reforms in many countries. Some examples mentioned include projects on malaria prevention, tuberculosis control in China, management training in Egypt, and using technology to support diagnosis.
Strengthening Health Systems: Moving beyond Supporting the Health System
This document discusses the difference between supporting and strengthening health systems. Supporting focuses on filling gaps for short-term outcomes, while strengthening makes the system function better long-term by addressing policies, behaviors, and relationships between building blocks. True health system strengthening interventions have cross-cutting benefits across disease areas, address organizational and policy constraints, and produce long-lasting systemic impact through country-specific approaches that define local roles. The document proposes criteria to identify health system strengthening and acknowledges there is no single approach, as interventions must consider each country's unique context and constraints.

Next steps include expanding the model to primary care and other sectors to better inform training programs and workforce planning.
Results of Brokering Regional PPPs-- more than just money
The document discusses the results and lessons learned from brokering public-private partnerships (PPPs) for health initiatives in Latin America and the Caribbean. It outlines several regional PPP projects that addressed priorities like clean drinking water, nutrition, maternal and child health, and health programming. The partnerships aligned the interests of USAID, companies, and regional implementation partners. Key challenges included navigating multinational structures and timelines, but opportunities existed to bring new resources and technologies to health and development through longer-term, flexible partnerships.
National Health Accounts: What do they Reveal in Cote d'Ivoire?
National health accounts were conducted in Côte d'Ivoire for the first time in 2007 and 2008 to estimate health spending. Total health expenditures increased 9.9% between 2007 and 2008. Households are the main source of health funding, contributing 69% of total health expenditures in 2008, mainly through high out-of-pocket spending on medicines. While total health spending per person is higher in Côte d'Ivoire than other sub-Saharan countries, government and donor contributions per person are much lower than household expenditures. Recommendations include developing policies to reduce out-of-pocket costs and give greater priority to primary healthcare.

GASTROINTESTINAL INFECTIONS AND GASTRITIS
Osvaldo Bernardo Muchanga
Gastrointestinal Infections
GASTROINTESTINAL INFECTIONS result from the ingestion of pathogens that cause infections at the level of this tract, generally being transmitted by food, water and hands contaminated by microorganisms such as E. coli, Salmonella, Shigella, Vibrio cholerae, Campylobacter, Staphylococcus, Rotavirus among others that are generally contained in feces, thus configuring a FECAL-ORAL type of transmission.
Among the factors that lead to the occurrence of gastrointestinal infections are the hygienic and sanitary deficiencies that characterize our markets and other places where raw or cooked food is sold, poor environmental sanitation in communities, deficiencies in water treatment (or in the process of its plumbing), risky hygienic-sanitary habits (not washing hands after major and/or minor needs), among others.
These are generally consequences (signs and symptoms) resulting from gastrointestinal infections: diarrhea, vomiting, fever and malaise, among others.
The treatment consists of replacing lost liquids and electrolytes (drinking drinking water and other recommended liquids, including consumption of juicy fruits such as papayas, apples, pears, among others that contain water in their composition).
To prevent this, it is necessary to promote health education, improve the hygienic-sanitary conditions of markets and communities in general as a way of promoting, preserving and prolonging PUBLIC HEALTH.
Gastritis and Gastric Health
Gastric Health is one of the most relevant concerns in human health, with gastrointestinal infections being among the main illnesses that affect humans.
Among gastric problems, we have GASTRITIS AND GASTRIC ULCERS as the main public health problems. Gastritis and gastric ulcers normally result from inflammation and corrosion of the walls of the stomach (gastric mucosa) and are generally associated (caused) by the bacterium Helicobacter pylor, which, according to the literature, this bacterium settles on these walls (of the stomach) and starts to release urease that ends up altering the normal pH of the stomach (acid), which leads to inflammation and corrosion of the mucous membranes and consequent gastritis or ulcers, respectively.
In addition to bacterial infections, gastritis and gastric ulcers are associated with several factors, with emphasis on prolonged fasting, chemical substances including drugs, alcohol, foods with strong seasonings including chilli, which ends up causing inflammation of the stomach walls and/or corrosion. of the same, resulting in the appearance of wounds and consequent gastritis or ulcers, respectively.
Among patients with gastritis and/or ulcers, one of the dilemmas is associated with the foods to consume in order to minimize the sensation of pain and discomfort. What are the different types of Dental implants.
Are you looking for a long-lasting solution to your missing tooth?
Dental implants are the most common type of method for replacing the missing tooth. Unlike dentures or bridges, implants are surgically placed in the jawbone. In layman’s terms, a dental implant is similar to the natural root of the tooth. It offers a stable foundation for the artificial tooth giving it the look, feel, and function similar to the natural tooth.

Pharmacology of 5-hydroxytryptamine and Antagonist
5-hydroxytryptamine or 5-HT or Serotonin is a neurotransmitter that serves a range of roles in the human body. It is sometimes referred to as the happy chemical since it promotes overall well-being and happiness.
It is mostly found in the brain, intestines, and blood platelets.
5-HT is utilised to transport messages between nerve cells, is known to be involved in smooth muscle contraction, and adds to overall well-being and pleasure, among other benefits. 5-HT regulates the body's sleep-wake cycles and internal clock by acting as a precursor to melatonin.
It is hypothesised to regulate hunger, emotions, motor, cognitive, and autonomic processes.

PGx Analysis in VarSeq: A User’s Perspective
Since our release of the PGx capabilities in VarSeq, we’ve had a few months to gather some insights from various use cases. Some users approach PGx workflows by means of array genotyping or what seems to be a growing trend of adding the star allele calling to the existing NGS pipeline for whole genome data. Luckily, both approaches are supported with the VarSeq software platform. The genotyping method being used will also dictate what the scope of the tertiary analysis will be. For example, are your PGx reports a standalone pipeline or would your lab’s goal be to handle a dual-purpose workflow and report on PGx + Diagnostic findings.
The purpose of this webcast is to:
Discuss and demonstrate the approaches with array and NGS genotyping methods for star allele calling to prep for downstream analysis.
Following genotyping, explore alternative tertiary workflow concepts in VarSeq to handle PGx reporting.
Moreover, we will include insights users will need to consider when validating their PGx workflow for all possible star alleles and options you have for automating your PGx analysis for large number of samples. Please join us for a session dedicated to the application of star allele genotyping and subsequent PGx workflows in our VarSeq software.

biomechanics of running. Dr.dhwani.pptx
The biomechanics of running involves the study of the mechanical principles underlying running movements. It includes the analysis of the running gait cycle, which consists of the stance phase (foot contact to push-off) and the swing phase (foot lift-off to next contact). Key aspects include kinematics (joint angles and movements, stride length and frequency) and kinetics (forces involved in running, including ground reaction and muscle forces). Understanding these factors helps in improving running performance, optimizing technique, and preventing injuries.
What is Obesity? How to overcome Obesity?
Obesity is a chronic complex disease defined by excessive fat deposits that can impair health.
Breast cancer: Post menopausal endocrine therapy
Breast cancer in postmenopausal women with hormone receptor-positive (HR+) status is a common and complex condition that necessitates a multifaceted approach to management. HR+ breast cancer means that the cancer cells grow in response to hormones such as estrogen and progesterone. This subtype is prevalent among postmenopausal women and typically exhibits a more indolent course compared to other forms of breast cancer, which allows for a variety of treatment options.
Diagnosis and Staging
The diagnosis of HR+ breast cancer begins with clinical evaluation, imaging, and biopsy. Imaging modalities such as mammography, ultrasound, and MRI help in assessing the extent of the disease. Histopathological examination and immunohistochemical staining of the biopsy sample confirm the diagnosis and hormone receptor status by identifying the presence of estrogen receptors (ER) and progesterone receptors (PR) on the tumor cells.
Staging involves determining the size of the tumor (T), the involvement of regional lymph nodes (N), and the presence of distant metastasis (M). The American Joint Committee on Cancer (AJCC) staging system is commonly used. Accurate staging is critical as it guides treatment decisions.
Treatment Options
Endocrine Therapy
Endocrine therapy is the cornerstone of treatment for HR+ breast cancer in postmenopausal women. The primary goal is to reduce the levels of estrogen or block its effects on cancer cells. Commonly used agents include:
Selective Estrogen Receptor Modulators (SERMs): Tamoxifen is a SERM that binds to estrogen receptors, blocking estrogen from stimulating breast cancer cells. It is effective but may have side effects such as increased risk of endometrial cancer and thromboembolic events.
Aromatase Inhibitors (AIs): These drugs, including anastrozole, letrozole, and exemestane, lower estrogen levels by inhibiting the aromatase enzyme, which converts androgens to estrogen in peripheral tissues. AIs are generally preferred in postmenopausal women due to their efficacy and safety profile compared to tamoxifen.
Selective Estrogen Receptor Downregulators (SERDs): Fulvestrant is a SERD that degrades estrogen receptors and is used in cases where resistance to other endocrine therapies develops.
Combination Therapies
Combining endocrine therapy with other treatments enhances efficacy. Examples include:
Endocrine Therapy with CDK4/6 Inhibitors: Palbociclib, ribociclib, and abemaciclib are CDK4/6 inhibitors that, when combined with endocrine therapy, significantly improve progression-free survival in advanced HR+ breast cancer.
Endocrine Therapy with mTOR Inhibitors: Everolimus, an mTOR inhibitor, can be added to endocrine therapy for patients who have developed resistance to aromatase inhibitors.
Chemotherapy
Chemotherapy is generally reserved for patients with high-risk features, such as large tumor size, high-grade histology, or extensive lymph node involvement. Regimens often include anthracyclines and taxanes.
