This document summarizes 40 years of research on hemophilia in the Netherlands. It describes the history of hemophilia research starting in 1972 with a student project. Over the decades, surveys were conducted in 1972, 1978, 1985, 1992, and 2001 that involved thousands of hemophilia patients. The surveys tracked changes in treatment, hospital admissions, bleeding events, and life expectancy over time. Research also examined issues like HIV, hepatitis C, genetic counseling, and quality of life. Future research plans include stronger links between survey data and hospital records, and possible cooperation on a biobank.

The document discusses how global HCP social networks can provide rare disease specialists opportunities to connect and collaborate. It focuses on the neuroendocrine tumor (NET) specialist community on G-Med, which has over 4,000 members from 28 countries. Case studies on G-Med generate rapid responses, and surveys found high satisfaction among NET specialists with knowledge sharing and networking on the platform. Global networks may be better than medical societies for continuous rare disease specialist engagement.
This document discusses cardiovascular health in the UK. It notes that while improvements have been made, reducing deaths from cardiovascular disease by 36% between 2001-2010, more still needs to be done given an aging population. A strategy from 2013 outlines 10 actions to improve cardiovascular health, but challenges remain in fully implementing them. Early detection of at-risk individuals and better coordinated care across the healthcare system are particular areas that need addressing. The survival rate for heart attacks is high at around 90%, but many do not realize this and confuse it with cardiac arrest which has a much lower survival rate.

- Women had higher rates of diabetes, hypertension, dyslipidemia and obesity compared to men.
- There were no significant gender differences found in diagnostic and therapeutic procedures between men and women with ACS.
This document reviews mortality from maxillofacial trauma. It discusses several potential causes of life-threatening complications or death following maxillofacial injuries, including airway obstruction, massive bleeding, or undiagnosed cervical spine injuries. It also examines specific situations that may adversely affect the airway, such as soft tissue swelling, displaced fractures causing airway blockage, or trauma to the larynx or trachea. The management of airway is crucial in maxillofacial trauma patients, as a compromised airway can lead to death.

8 Surprising Reasons To Meditate 40 Minutes A Day That Can Change Your Life.pptxHolistified Wellness
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. And though there are some written records, the practice has been passed down verbally from generation to generation.
