HSBC wanted to launch a new home loan product called MyHome that allowed customers to control their monthly payments. To promote this unique feature, the agency created a fake organization called the "Society Against Home Loan Disorder" which staged protests and media campaigns about the supposed disease of having fixed monthly payments. This garnered significant media attention over a month across various channels. Eventually the Society held a press conference to announce the launch of HSBC's MyHome loan which offered flexible monthly payments to control the "disease".

It's happened to all of us: we ran away from some conversation or library because it kept on using those "weird" phrases. You know, like "type classes", "semigroups", "monoids", "applicatives". Yikes! They all seem so academic, so pointlessly detached from real-world problems. But then again, given how frequently we run into them in functional programming, are they REALLY irrelevant, or do they have real-world applications? This talk will go beyond giving you raw definitions of these terms, and show you real-world motivations behind the concepts. By attending, you'll be able to keep your skills relevant to an ever-changing industry, confuse your significant other ("You know, honey, a monad is just a monoid in the category of endofunctors!"), and sound extra smart on the next job interview!
This document describes a proposed wireless multi-parameter patient monitoring system and database management system to address healthcare issues in rural areas. It would use a low-power device connected to sensors to monitor patients' vital signs like ECG, temperature, and pulse rate. The device would transmit this medical data via MQTT protocol to an interactive doctor's website for review. Doctors could then monitor patients' health regularly and provide prescriptions. This system aims to improve rural healthcare access by allowing remote patient monitoring with low-cost technology.

Cell Therapy Expansion and Challenges in Autoimmune DiseaseHealth Advances
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.

What Are Our Gadgets Doing to
Our Bodies?
From aching necks to throbbing thumbs, Americans are
dealing with a variety of ailments that may result from our
love affair with electronic gadgets. "According to studies,
frequent computer use may be related to nerve, muscle,
tendon and ligament damage," explains Dr. Kenneth Klein,
nonsurgical orthopedist at Beloit Health System and
NorthPointe Health and Wellness. "The fact that many of us
are continually on laptops, tablets, smartphones, portable
electronic games and other mobile devices has only added to
the potential strain."
Some Common Conditions
Overuse, poor posture and less-than-ideal work stations
may contribute to some of these conditions.
Wrist and hand pain. The repetitive motions involved with typing and moving a mouse may result in tendinitis
(inflamed tendons) or bursitis (inflammation of the sacs of cushioning fluid). There is some controversy over

Tips for a Healthy Pregnancy
Take Good Care of Your Baby
Beloit Health System's obstetric team would like to help
you have a healthy, happy baby. Here are some tips to
help you through your nine months of preparation.
From day one of your pregnancy, everything you do and eat
directly affects your child. Taking special care of your body
before and during pregnancy can help you and your baby
develop healthfully.
Eating for One–Plus
Eating for two is an outdated notion that can lead to
unnecessary weight gain. Gaining too much weight can lead
to pregnancy complications such as diabetes, high blood
pressure, constipation and backaches, as well as a more
difficult delivery. While it's important to eat a varied,
balanced diet, the National Institutes of Health recommends eating only 300 extra calories a day.
www.myhealthnewsletter.com/beloit/WinterSpring2013/page2.html 1/3
4. 12/18/12 Beloit -‐‑HealthWise -‐‑ Winter/Spring 2013
However, you will need to add more nutrients to your diet to help your baby grow. You may be able to glean some of
these extra vitamins and minerals from food, while others may require a supplement.
Folic acid helps prevent neural tube defects such as spina bifida and is essential to the formation of red blood cells.
Pregnancy doubles the need for folic acid, which is found in kidney beans, leafy green vegetables, peas and liver. Your
doctor may recommend a supplement to ensure you consume the proper amount before and during pregnancy.
Iron helps form red blood cells, and pregnancy calls for higher than normal doses. Iron deficiency can lead to exhaustion
and anemia.
Calcium helps build a baby’s bones, so it's important for pregnant and breastfeeding women to consume 1,000 to 1,300
mg a day. For lactose-intolerant women or those who struggle to eat enough dairy products, your doctor may suggest a
supplement.
Some foods can add to your discomfort and may actually harm you and your baby. Caffeine can cause irritability,
insomnia, nervousness and dehydration in the mother, and low birth weight in the baby. Alcohol consumption can lead
to fetal alcohol syndrome, a leading cause of birth defects and mental retardation. You may also want to steer clear of
raw fish high in mercury and soft cheeses.
Get Fit For Two
Exercising for 30 minutes on most days during pregnancy offers a range of benefits, including improving your mood,
building muscle, managing weight, reducing backaches and so much more.
You may find that nonweight-bearing exercises, such as swimming and biking, are the most comfortable during
pregnancy. Walking and low-impact aerobics can also provide a safe and healthy option. Talk to your doctor about
continuing any higher-impact pre-pregnancy activities.
As your pregnancy progresses, avoid exercises that require you to lie flat on your back or stand for long periods of time.
Beware of getting overheated and drink plenty of fluids. And avoid activities that put you at risk for injury, such as
downhill skiing and contact sports.
Get the Care You Need
Seeing your healthcare provider regularly helps ensure that you and your baby grow strong. Even if you're only thinking
about trying to conceive, discuss with your doctor what you can do to ensure a healthy pregnancy.
Please call Beloit Clinic at (608) 364-2220 or NorthPointe Clinic at (815) 525-4500 to make an
appointment with a member of our obstetric team.

Get a Shingles Shot
Stop Shingles Before It Starts
Have you gotten your shingles vaccination? Shingles, or
herpes zoster, is caused by the same virus as chickenpox,
and results in painful, blistering rashes on your skin.
"Shingles can affect anyone who has had chickenpox, but
the risk increases with age," explains Dr. Christel Tecarro,
family practice physician at Beloit Clinic. "If you are over
age 60, ask your doctor about getting vaccinated."
To further protect yourself and your loved ones against
shingles, here are some questions and answers about the
virus that everyone should know.
What Causes Shingles and Can It Spread?
"The chickenpox virus never completely leaves your body,"
she says. "Instead, it lies dormant in your system, hiding in certain nerve cells. Shingles occurs when this virus suddenly
becomes active again."

5 Exercise Excuses and How to
Overcome Them
We've all heard of the benefits that come from exercising
regularly. People who are physically active are healthier,
feel happier and have more energy. But when it comes to
getting out there and exercising, many of us have a long list
of excuses for why we shouldn't. Dr. Robert Lisek shares
five of the most common excuses and ways to beat them.
Have you heard or said these?
1. I'm too busy. The U.S. Surgeon General recommends
at least 150 minutes of aerobic activity a week. This
may seem like a lot, but it's not much more than 20
minutes a day. Start looking at your schedule to see
where you can fit this initial 20 minutes. Maybe you
can jog in place while watching TV. Better yet, try
turning off the TV and using that time for exercising.
2. I'm too tired. Physical activity is often associated with exhaustion. However, being physically active actually
releases endorphins into your body, leaving you feeling energized. Instead of focusing on how tired you feel before
www.myhealthnewsletter.com/beloit/WinterSpring2013/page4.html 1/3
9. 12/18/12 Beloit -‐‑HealthWise -‐‑ Winter/Spring 2013
releases endorphins into your body, leaving you feeling energized. Instead of focusing on how tired you feel before
you exercise, focus instead on the energized feeling you will get after your workout.
3. It's too hot/cold. Have a backup plan ready for those days when the weather isn't cooperating. Perhaps broaden
your exercise regimen to include indoor activities like Pilates or yoga. Try a DVD that you can watch and follow
along at home.
4. I hate going to the gym. You don't have to go to a gym to get exercise. Find an activity you love and do it. For
example, if you love music, why not join a dance or cycle class set to music? Or if you enjoy reading, why not get
some audio books and listen while you take a walk?
5. I can never follow through. Changing habits can be difficult. Set small attainable goals. Don't try to run for an
hour on your first go, build up to it. By breaking up your exercise goals into small manageable pieces you may
succeed.
Don't dread exercise, it can be fun! Try teaming up with an exercise buddy so you can keep each other on track and
motivated. It's harder to make excuses when someone is counting on you to be there for a walk, bike ride or trip to the
gym.
NorthPointe Wellness, at 5605 E. Rockton Road in Roscoe, has a daily schedule of fun activities for members or those

The Foundation Thanks Our Community
Beloit Health System Foundation had a busy fall! Some of our events included sponsoring fundraisers such as the Pro-
Am, hosting educational seminars and providing a forum for professional women. All of these help us connect with you
and help provide funding for quality patient services! We wanted to share some of our recent highlights with you in this
photo journal. Numbers correspond to photos below.
27th Annual Pro-Am
1A The 27th annual Pro-Am featured twotime national long drive champion Jamie Sadlowski. He “wowed”
attendees with his 420-yard drives and trick shots. Forrest, Sue (2012 Pro-Am Chair) and Joe Knueppel
welcome Jamie (second from left).
1B Ann Sitrick, Foundation Executive Director, and Bill Sullivan get ready for the Culver’s Putt for Ca$h event. In

patient technology.

$100,000 for Cancer Care at Beloit Health System.

Kids with Quilts
2 A group of Beloit youngsters were inspired by a “friends for change” TV commercial. It gave them the idea to
cut and knot these seven brightly colored blankets and donate them to hospitalized children.
Marion Fry Memorial
3 The family of Marion Fry, who worked in Beloit Health System's Family Care Center for more than 30 years,
recently donated a beautiful Amish Rocker to the Family Care Center in her memory. The chair is now being
enjoyed by moms and newborns and has a place of honor in the birthing center nursery.
