The Role of Routine Health Information Systems in the Post-2015 Development A...Routine Health Information Network
The document discusses the importance of routine health information systems for monitoring health goals in the post-2015 development agenda. It notes that facility-level data will be the primary source for monitoring 8 of the 26 SDG health indicators. However, current health information systems face challenges like poor data quality, lack of private sector data, and fragmented systems. New opportunities exist with advances in ICT and emphasis on accountability. The Health Data Collaborative aims to enhance coordination and efficiency across partners to strengthen country health information systems. This will help to integrate disease surveillance, align investments, develop standards, and build national capacity in data analysis and use.Mobile Health Apps: A Critical Overview
Mobile health apps, or mHealth apps, aim to improve users' health through functionalities like disease management, medication reminders, and communication with doctors. They can track user information, provide educational content, and reward behavior change. However, many apps lack clinical evidence and oversight. Regulated apps must be used as medical device accessories and adhere to privacy laws. Choosing apps developed by experts, citing reliable sources, and understanding an app's data use and reviews can help users select appropriate health tools. While offering opportunities, the fast growth of unregulated mHealth also presents risks like invalid data and privacy issues that warrant further attention.

It defines basic literacy as the ability to read simple language and health literacy as having the capacity to obtain, process, and understand basic health information to make appropriate health decisions. Only 12% of adults are considered proficient in health literacy. Acquiring health literacy has become more difficult with the abundance of online health information of varying credibility.

Cell Therapy Expansion and Challenges in Autoimmune Disease
There is increasing confidence that cell therapies will soon play a role in the treatment of autoimmune disorders, but the extent of this impact remains to be seen. Early readouts on autologous CAR-Ts in lupus are encouraging, but manufacturing and cost limitations are likely to restrict access to highly refractory patients. Allogeneic CAR-Ts have the potential to broaden access to earlier lines of treatment due to their inherent cost benefits, however they will need to demonstrate comparable or improved efficacy to established modalities.
In addition to infrastructure and capacity constraints, CAR-Ts face a very different risk-benefit dynamic in autoimmune compared to oncology, highlighting the need for tolerable therapies with low adverse event risk. CAR-NK and Treg-based therapies are also being developed in certain autoimmune disorders and may demonstrate favorable safety profiles. Several novel non-cell therapies such as bispecific antibodies, nanobodies, and RNAi drugs, may also offer future alternative competitive solutions with variable value propositions.
Widespread adoption of cell therapies will not only require strong efficacy and safety data, but also adapted pricing and access strategies. At oncology-based price points, CAR-Ts are unlikely to achieve broad market access in autoimmune disorders, with eligible patient populations that are potentially orders of magnitude greater than the number of currently addressable cancer patients. Developers have made strides towards reducing cell therapy COGS while improving manufacturing efficiency, but payors will inevitably restrict access until more sustainable pricing is achieved.
Despite these headwinds, industry leaders and investors remain confident that cell therapies are poised to address significant unmet need in patients suffering from autoimmune disorders. However, the extent of this impact on the treatment landscape remains to be seen, as the industry rapidly approaches an inflection point.

10 Benefits an EPCR Software should Bring to EMS Organizations
The benefits of an ePCR solution should extend to the whole EMS organization, not just certain groups of people or certain departments. It should provide more than just a form for entering and a database for storing information.

We’re talking about Vedic Meditation, a form of meditation that has been around for at least 5,000 years. Back then, the people who lived in the Indus Valley, now known as India and Pakistan, practised meditation as a fundamental part of daily life. This knowledge that has given us yoga and Ayurveda, was known as Veda, hence the name Vedic.
