Analysis of spontaneous reports of Adverse Events Following Immunization (AEFIs) is an important way to identify potential problems in vaccine safety and efficacy and summarize experience for dissemination to health care authorities. The Adverse Event Reporting Ontology (AERO) we are building plays a role in increasing accuracy and quality of reporting, ultimately enhancing response time to adverse event signals.

Pharmacovigilance Reporting and Communication: Collaboration between Stakehol...ClinosolIndia
Effective reporting and communication in pharmacovigilance play a vital role in ensuring the safety of medications and protecting public health. This paper explores the importance of collaboration between various stakeholders in the field of pharmacovigilance for efficient reporting and communication processes.
Pharmacovigilance reporting involves the collection, analysis, and evaluation of adverse drug reactions (ADRs) and other drug-related incidents. Prompt and accurate reporting of ADRs is crucial for detecting potential safety issues, identifying patterns or trends, and taking necessary actions to mitigate risks. However, the success of reporting relies on effective collaboration between healthcare professionals, regulatory agencies, pharmaceutical companies, and patients.
The paper highlights the role of healthcare professionals in recognizing and reporting ADRs. It emphasizes the importance of their active participation in pharmacovigilance activities, including the proper documentation and reporting of suspected adverse events. Additionally, the paper discusses the significance of education and training programs to enhance healthcare professionals' awareness and knowledge of pharmacovigilance principles and reporting systems.

CONTEMPORARY CLINICAL QUESTIONS on HPV-Related Diseases and VaccinationMichaelFKF
I am please to announce that after a year plus of diligent work we have produced a clinical reference document to provide front line providers contemporary information at point of care decision making in HPV care management, including vaccination.
As a co editor and lead of this FAQ I am extremely proud of the national collaborative effort that made this second edition of the highly popular first edition possible.That version( the first edition) has several thousand copies distributed nationally and internationally .
This version, over 35 thousand copies will be distributed to all the family docs in Canada, SOGC,SCC, GOC members by January.
In addition a longer unabridged version will be online at the end of January that will provide a 'living' document for learners - primary care providers, residents, students etc. This version will be available to on the GOC web site www.g-o-c.org.
The potential to provide learning and reference teaching on this important women's health and cancer prevention topic cannot be underestimated. One can look for opportunities for front line providers to have access to this in clinics and public health spaces.
Earlier editions have in the past been well received by the cancer prevention community in Ontario and nationally.

Proposed Model for Chest Disease Prediction using Data Analyticsvivatechijri
Chest diseases if not properly diagnosed in early stages can be fatal. Because of lack of skilled
knowledge or experiences of real life practitioners, many a times one chest disease is wrongly diagnosed for the
other, which leads to wrong treatment. Due to this the actual disease keeps on growing and become fatal. For
example, muscular chest pains can be treated for the heart disease or COPD is treated for Asthma. Early
prediction of chest disease is crucial but is not an easy task. Consequently, the computer based prediction system
for chest disease may play a significant role as a pre-stage detection to take proper actions with a view to recover
from it. However the choice of the proper Data Mining classification method can effectively predict the early
stage of the disease for being cured from it. In this paper, the three mostly used classification techniques such as
support vector machine (SVM), k-nearest neighbour (KNN) and artificial neural network (ANN) have been studied
with a view to evaluating them for chest disease prediction.

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.

New Directions in Targeted Therapeutic Approaches for Older Adults With Mantl...i3 Health
i3 Health is pleased to make the speaker slides from this activity available for use as a non-accredited self-study or teaching resource.
This slide deck presented by Dr. Kami Maddocks, Professor-Clinical in the Division of Hematology and
Associate Division Director for Ambulatory Operations
The Ohio State University Comprehensive Cancer Center, will provide insight into new directions in targeted therapeutic approaches for older adults with mantle cell lymphoma.
STATEMENT OF NEED
Mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) is a rare, aggressive B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) accounting for 5% to 7% of all lymphomas. Its prognosis ranges from indolent disease that does not require treatment for years to very aggressive disease, which is associated with poor survival (Silkenstedt et al, 2021). Typically, MCL is diagnosed at advanced stage and in older patients who cannot tolerate intensive therapy (NCCN, 2022). Although recent advances have slightly increased remission rates, recurrence and relapse remain very common, leading to a median overall survival between 3 and 6 years (LLS, 2021). Though there are several effective options, progress is still needed towards establishing an accepted frontline approach for MCL (Castellino et al, 2022). Treatment selection and management of MCL are complicated by the heterogeneity of prognosis, advanced age and comorbidities of patients, and lack of an established standard approach for treatment, making it vital that clinicians be familiar with the latest research and advances in this area. In this activity chaired by Michael Wang, MD, Professor in the Department of Lymphoma & Myeloma at MD Anderson Cancer Center, expert faculty will discuss prognostic factors informing treatment, the promising results of recent trials in new therapeutic approaches, and the implications of treatment resistance in therapeutic selection for MCL.
Target Audience
Hematology/oncology fellows, attending faculty, and other health care professionals involved in the treatment of patients with mantle cell lymphoma (MCL).
Learning Objectives
1.) Identify clinical and biological prognostic factors that can guide treatment decision making for older adults with MCL
2.) Evaluate emerging data on targeted therapeutic approaches for treatment-naive and relapsed/refractory MCL and their applicability to older adults
3.) Assess mechanisms of resistance to targeted therapies for MCL and their implications for treatment selection
Tom Selleck Health: A Comprehensive Look at the Iconic Actor’s Wellness Journeygreendigital
Tom Selleck, an enduring figure in Hollywood. has captivated audiences for decades with his rugged charm, iconic moustache. and memorable roles in television and film. From his breakout role as Thomas Magnum in Magnum P.I. to his current portrayal of Frank Reagan in Blue Bloods. Selleck's career has spanned over 50 years. But beyond his professional achievements. fans have often been curious about Tom Selleck Health. especially as he has aged in the public eye.
Follow us on: Pinterest
Introduction
Many have been interested in Tom Selleck health. not only because of his enduring presence on screen but also because of the challenges. and lifestyle choices he has faced and made over the years. This article delves into the various aspects of Tom Selleck health. exploring his fitness regimen, diet, mental health. and the challenges he has encountered as he ages. We'll look at how he maintains his well-being. the health issues he has faced, and his approach to ageing .
Early Life and Career
Childhood and Athletic Beginnings
Tom Selleck was born on January 29, 1945, in Detroit, Michigan, and grew up in Sherman Oaks, California. From an early age, he was involved in sports, particularly basketball. which played a significant role in his physical development. His athletic pursuits continued into college. where he attended the University of Southern California (USC) on a basketball scholarship. This early involvement in sports laid a strong foundation for his physical health and disciplined lifestyle.
Transition to Acting
Selleck's transition from an athlete to an actor came with its physical demands. His first significant role in "Magnum P.I." required him to perform various stunts and maintain a fit appearance. This role, which he played from 1980 to 1988. necessitated a rigorous fitness routine to meet the show's demands. setting the stage for his long-term commitment to health and wellness.
Fitness Regimen
Workout Routine
Tom Selleck health and fitness regimen has evolved. adapting to his changing roles and age. During his "Magnum, P.I." days. Selleck's workouts were intense and focused on building and maintaining muscle mass. His routine included weightlifting, cardiovascular exercises. and specific training for the stunts he performed on the show.
Selleck adjusted his fitness routine as he aged to suit his body's needs. Today, his workouts focus on maintaining flexibility, strength, and cardiovascular health. He incorporates low-impact exercises such as swimming, walking, and light weightlifting. This balanced approach helps him stay fit without putting undue strain on his joints and muscles.
Importance of Flexibility and Mobility
In recent years, Selleck has emphasized the importance of flexibility and mobility in his fitness regimen. Understanding the natural decline in muscle mass and joint flexibility with age. he includes stretching and yoga in his routine. These practices help prevent injuries, improve posture, and maintain mobilit

ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE IN HEALTHCARE.pdfAnujkumaranit
Artificial intelligence (AI) refers to the simulation of human intelligence processes by machines, especially computer systems. It encompasses tasks such as learning, reasoning, problem-solving, perception, and language understanding. AI technologies are revolutionizing various fields, from healthcare to finance, by enabling machines to perform tasks that typically require human intelligence.
Ethanol (CH3CH2OH), or beverage alcohol, is a two-carbon alcohol
that is rapidly distributed in the body and brain. Ethanol alters many
neurochemical systems and has rewarding and addictive properties. It
is the oldest recreational drug and likely contributes to more morbidity,
mortality, and public health costs than all illicit drugs combined. The
5th edition of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders
(DSM-5) integrates alcohol abuse and alcohol dependence into a single
disorder called alcohol use disorder (AUD), with mild, moderate,
and severe subclassifications (American Psychiatric Association, 2013).
In the DSM-5, all types of substance abuse and dependence have been
combined into a single substance use disorder (SUD) on a continuum
from mild to severe. A diagnosis of AUD requires that at least two of
the 11 DSM-5 behaviors be present within a 12-month period (mild
AUD: 2–3 criteria; moderate AUD: 4–5 criteria; severe AUD: 6–11 criteria).
The four main behavioral effects of AUD are impaired control over
drinking, negative social consequences, risky use, and altered physiological
effects (tolerance, withdrawal). This chapter presents an overview
of the prevalence and harmful consequences of AUD in the U.S.,
the systemic nature of the disease, neurocircuitry and stages of AUD,
comorbidities, fetal alcohol spectrum disorders, genetic risk factors, and
pharmacotherapies for AUD.

and program implementation and evaluation.
http://www.pcirn.ca/
3. Problem statement
3
Current adverse events following immunization
(AEFIs) reporting systems use different standards (if
any) to encode reports
Within the Canadian research network I collaborate
with, there is no standard terminology used when
recording adverse events.
During aggregation at the federal level, clinical
notes recording signs and symptoms, are often not
even saved
The resultant lack of consistency limits the ability to
query and assess potential safety issues
4. Goal and significance of my work
4
Goal: Improve safety signal detection in vaccine
AEFIs reports
Step 1: Augment existing standards with logically
formalized elements
Step 2: Perform automatic case classification
Step 3: Test classification utility to detect safety signals
Significance: Increase the timeliness and cost
effectiveness of reliable adverse event signal
detection
5. What is an AEFI?
5
An adverse event following immunization (AEFI) is an
undesirable, unfavorable and unintended medical
occurrence presenting in a predetermined time frame
following administration of a vaccine
Adapted from ICH Topic E 2 A Clinical Safety Data Management:
Definitions and Standards for Expedited Reporting
6. What’s interesting about vaccine surveillance
6
Vaccine administration differs from many other therapies in that
it is preventive rather than curative
Randomized clinical trials are necessarily limited in size and
duration, and are underpowered given the broad deployment
of vaccines
Follow-up studies of the vaccinated population are necessary to
assess safety and risk factors
Reports come from a wide variety of health care providers, and
must be aggregated and normalized
Based on these analyses, health authorities will decide whether
to withdraw or limit use of a vaccine (e.g., based on such an
analysis, a decision was taken to not administer Fluvax to
children under 2)
7. Surveillance of adverse events needs reform
7
Reports of adverse events need to be better controlled
Terms used to report signs, symptoms, and diagnoses
should be defined by clinical guidelines with clear
definitions, so even if there are different sources for
guidelines they can be clearly understood
MedDRA terms and filled text fields are not sufficiently
unambiguous or well documented
Reports need to be encoded in a way that enables
automated confirmation of diagnoses
Current confirmation by medical specialists is time
consuming and error-prone

guidelines to standardize reporting
300participants from patient care, public health, scientific,
pharmaceutical, regulatory and professional organizations
Bonhoeffer et al. Vaccine, 2002.
Good applicability, sensitivity, and specificity
Kohl et al. Vaccine, 2007.
Performs well against other standards
Erlewyn-Lajeunesse et al. Drug safety, 2010.
Adopted by Public Health Agency of Canada

9. Benefits of working with Brighton
9
They have developed a first software tool, however
it is proprietary and uses hard-coded rules that can
not easily be modified
They work with an extensive network of
collaborators, share a vision of how computation
can help in this area, and can push adoption
They want to develop a new tool that can be
applied to classifying a number of large European
datasets, and support my research toward
accomplishing that effort.
10. Strategy for encoding adverse event reports
10
Model the domain using an ontology encoded using
OWL 2
OWL reasoning is a solid basis for classification
A variety of high quality open source tools available
Open Biological and Biomedical Ontology Foundry
helps with quality, interoperability and avoiding
redundant work
Define each term textually
Reuse ontologies in the suite
Define each term logically, by relating it to other entities
Work in progress: http://purl.obolibrary.org/obo/aero.owl
11. Using MedDRA annotated AE data
11
Acquire, from collaborators, existing data that uses
MedDRA
Translate, as best possible, MedDRA annotations to
Brighton symptoms
Import selected MedDRA terms in to OWL, following
general strategy of Minimal Information to Reference
an External Ontology Terms (Courtot, et al. 2011)
Standardized MedDRA Queries provide useful
documentation on how to interpret MedDRA
OWL used to define Brighton symptoms in terms of
MedDRA terms (this will be only approximate)
12. Using MedDRA annotated AE data
12
Use OWL to define Brighton criteria in terms of
Brighton symptoms
Represent adverse event instances as bags of
MedDRA terms
Classify event instances using OWL definitions of
Brighton criteria
Apply existing statistical methods to data retrieved
in terms of these automatically classified events
13. Automatic case classification
13
Convulsion, Cyanosis, Death, Mydriasis,
Pallor, Pulmonary oedema, Pupil fixed, MedDRA
Unresponsive to stimuli, Urinary
incontinence
annotations
brighton:General motor manifestation =
meddra:Convulsion AERO
brighton:Loss of consciousness =
meddra:Unresponsive to stimuli
mapping
Brighton seizure level 3 = hasPart AERO
brighton:General motor manifestation AND diagnoses
hasPart brighton:Loss of consciousness
14. Current status
14
A model of the Adverse Event Reporting Ontology
(AERO) has been built
A Brighton working group has been established to
guide our work
Encoding of Brighton case definitions is in progress
US Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System (VAERS)
data is freely available and has been acquired
Agreement in place to receive Canadian Adverse
Event Following Immunization Surveillance System
(CAEFISS) data
15. Project extensions under consideration
15
Compare results with different statistical methods
For example, using arbitrary set of terms vs. Brighton ones
Replace current ABC tool backend
Use text-mining to process textual part of AEFIs reports
Could increase accuracy of automatic case classification
Very preliminary work:
Botsis et al., Text mining for the vaccine adverse event reporting system: medical text
classification using informative feature selection. JAMIA, 18(5):631–638, October
2011.
Shah group in Stanford works on text-mining of drug related adverse events and is
interested in using AERO
Use text-mining directly on Electronic Health Record data
Apply pipeline on data captured in hospital setting without the need for
distinct reporting
