This document discusses healthy and unhealthy habits. It notes that a sedentary lifestyle can lead to health issues like weight gain and illness. Healthy habits include physical activity, rest, a balanced diet, and good hygiene. Physical activity benefits the heart, lungs, muscles and nervous system. Proper rest is important for quality of life. A balanced diet should include carbohydrates, proteins, fats, vitamins and water. Unhealthy habits covered include tobacco, drugs, alcohol, and obesity, which can damage health in various ways such as cancer, heart issues, and reduced brain function.
Lung Cancer: Artificial Intelligence, Synergetics, Complex System Analysis, S...Oleg Kshivets
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.

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.

2. INTRODUCTION
Nowadays, a lot of people
live without doing any kind
of physical exercise, this can
be dangerous for our health
and so we need to practice
some physical activity.
A sedentary lifestyle implies
the absence of this physical
activity:
1. Atrophy of the body functions.
2. A worse physical state.
3. You’ll suffer from more illnesses
4. You’ll put on weight.
4. HEALTHY HABITS
Physical Activity WHICH BENEFITS DO WE
OBTAIN WHEN WE PRACTISE A
PHYSICAL ACTIVITY
REGULARLY?
1. A better working of the heart and
the circulatory system.
2. It improves the respiratory
capacity.
3. It improves our muscles, bones
and joints.
4. It improves the activity of the
nervous system.
5. It improves the PHYSICAL
CONDITION.
6. It helps you to make friends.
5. HEALTHY HABITS
Rest
It’s necessary to keep enough
time to sleep. Otherwise:
1. Your quality of life will get
worse.
2. Your productivity will be
reduced.
3. You’ll suffer from more
physical and psychological
damage.
4. You won’t pay attention to
what happens around you.
Sleep for as long as necessary (7
hours)
Don’t take either long siestas or
very close to the time of sleeping.
(these siestas must be for 15 or 20
minutes)
Physical activity, if you get tired, it
will be easier to sleep.
Think about positive things, leave
aside the negative thoughts.
Sleep in the darkness.
Choose a fixed time to get up every
day.
6. HEALTHY HABITS
Corret diet
START YOUR DAY WITH A
GOOD BREAKFAST,
you need energy to study, do
exercise, enjoy….
The nutrients we get from food are:
1. Carbohydrates. They provide mainly energy and
they are very important for students and athletes.
They are found in cereals, bread, sugar, vegetables
and fruit. The proportion of carbohydrates in the
diet is 60%.
2. Proteins. They are found in
milk, fish, meat, eggs…either the abuse or the lack
of them are harmful. The proportion is 15 %.
3. Fats. They provide energy. It’s better to eat
uncooked fats and to avoid fats form animal
origins and fried products. Olive oil and blue fish
are very healthy. The proportion of fats in the diet
must be 25-30%. It’s advisable not to take too
many fats because they’re fattening.
4. Vitamins and minerals. Some vitamins are only
present in some vegetables and fruit, so, it’s
important to eat them.
5. Water is essential for life. You must drink a
great quantity of water after a physical activity.
During a long physical exercise you must drink as
well but every now and then.
7. HEALTHY HABITS
Body Hygiene
Go to the doctor and make sure you don’t
have physical problems.
Wear the right clothes for the activity.
Wear sports clothes
Avoid useless accessories
(rings, watches, dangerous earrings…)
Wear trainers. Tie them up correctly.
Wait for 2 hours after eating before
starting any kind of physical activity.
Do a good warm up.
FAIR PLAY.
Get washed after the exercise, clean your
sweat.
Drink enough water and if possible, eat
some fruit (not sweets or snacks).
9. Tobacco causes in Spain
about 40000 deaths every
year.
It brings about plenty of
illnesses such as lung or
mouth cancer, cough or
heart attacks.
Besides, tobacco damages
not only to smokers but
also to people who breathe
in the smoke.
Remember: Law protects non
smokers. It’s forbidden to
smoke in schools, hospitals
or in any kind of enclosed
public places.
10. Alcohol is the most
consumed toxic
substance in our
society.
It limits our body
functions, above all
brain functions.
It damages our
nervous system and
makes us slower.
It causes loss of
memory, heart
illnesses…
11. The cannabis. Its by-
products are the hashish
and the marijuana. When
smoking it, it’s absorbed
by the lungs and go fast
to the brain.
Problems you may have:
1. Problems in the
capacity of
concentration and with
your memory.
2. It reduces the
coordination.
3. Change the sexual
maturing hormones.
12. Obesity or overweight are defined as
a great accumulation of fats that can
be damaging for your health.
According to WHO (World Health
Organization) in 2005 there were
1600 million adults with overweight
and at least 400 million with obesity.
The WHO estimates that, by 2015
there will be 2300 million adults with
overweight and more than 700 with
obesity.
Causes of obesity
The main cause is a nutritional
disorder between what you eat and
what you burn up. Factors:
A worldwide change in the diet
eating food with a great quantity of
calories (fats and sugars) but few
vitamins and minerals.
We tend to reduce our physical
activity due to sedentary nature of
many jobs or to several changes in
transport.
1. Obesity and overweight have
serious consequences for your
health:
2. Cardiovascular illnesses.
3. Diabetes.
4. Osteoarthritis
5. Cancer.
