This document discusses evidence-based public health (EBPH). It defines EBPH as the development, implementation, and evaluation of effective programs and policies through applying scientific reasoning principles. The key steps of EBPH include quantifying the public health issue, conducting a literature review, developing and prioritizing program options, creating an action plan, and evaluating programs and policies. EBPH relies on diverse sources of evidence, both quantitative and qualitative research. It differs from evidence-based medicine in its focus on populations rather than individuals and emphasis on environmental and social factors.

Day 2 0900 - robin parry & ben klassen
Social support groups continue to provide important benefits. They offer information sharing, social connection, exposure to diverse perspectives, and positively impact health. Groups allow participants to feel heard, develop confidence, and access experts. They empower marginalized people and facilitate community involvement. However, certain demographics may feel excluded from groups due to barriers around accessibility, stigma, and lack of representation. Intentional efforts are needed to make groups inclusive of diversity in terms of identities, abilities, and viewpoints. Sustainability relies on participant involvement, facilitator support, and responsiveness to changing needs.
Day 2 0900 - ashleigh rich
This document summarizes a qualitative study exploring the socio-cultural context of substance use among gay communities in Vancouver, BC. Through interviews with 20 gay and queer men, 3 key themes emerged: 1) Substance use is a social activity that takes place in gay social spaces. 2) The use of drugs and alcohol facilitates social and sexual inclusion in these communities. 3) Participants reported that substance use patterns change over one's lifetime as gay men, with more use occurring during the period of "coming out." The study suggests substance use serves important social and coping functions, but may also influence HIV risk, and interventions should consider how these roles change throughout life.

This document discusses social support and its importance for the healthy aging of gay men who are baby boomers and generation X. It notes that social support can reduce stress, improve psychological well-being and slow disease progression for those living with HIV. Strong social support is also linked to better cognitive functioning, lower risk of health issues like strokes and cancers, and higher survival rates. However, aging gay men may face challenges maintaining social support networks as they age. The document calls for further research and strategies to promote successful aging for this demographic through strengthening social support and meeting their evolving needs.
Day 2 1500 - chris atchison
This document summarizes research on the experiences of gay and bisexual men who pay for sexual services in Canada. It finds that they have specific health, safety, legal and identity needs not addressed in other studies. Gay and bisexual men reported using the sex industry for physical intimacy, sexual exploration and coping with declining desirability. However, many did not understand prostitution laws or trust the legal system. More research is needed to understand their perspectives over the life course and involve their voices in policy discussions.
Day 2 1530 - mark gilbert
This document summarizes a presentation on renewing HIV prevention efforts for gay and bisexual men in British Columbia. The presentation discusses recommendations from advisory groups to release a provincial report in 2014 on the current state of the HIV epidemic among gay and bisexual men in BC. It emphasizes the need for a comprehensive and partnership-based approach that meaningfully involves gay and bisexual men. This includes expanding HIV testing, promoting sexual health, addressing social determinants, and monitoring trends through ongoing research.

This document summarizes and discusses three studies related to assessing the roles of place and mobility in gay men's health across the life course.
The first study examined how migration decisions and mental/emotional health are linked for gay men in the United States and Canada. The second study looked at how rurality can impact HIV risk and prevention for gay men in Nova Scotia. The third study analyzed service providers' perspectives on the impacts of migration on sexual health for gay, bisexual and queer newcomer men in Ontario. Overall, the document discusses how place and mobility shape key aspects of gay men's lives and health over their life courses.
Day 1 0915 - terry trussler
This document outlines the work of the Community Based Research Centre For Gay Men's Health over several years, focusing on determinants of health for gay men. It discusses topics like minority stress, social exclusion in data, and the impact of discrimination on health outcomes. New terms related to life course perspectives on health are introduced, like life span, life cohort, and longitudinal. Generational differences in attitudes toward health, activism, and trauma are also examined. The summit discussion focuses on how location and migration impact life course and gay health.
Day 2 1100 - phillip hammack
This document discusses gay men's health from a life course perspective. It summarizes current health issues facing gay men such as high rates of HIV, depression, and suicide attempts. It then outlines 3 principles of viewing health through a life course lens: historical time and place, linked lives, and human agency. Next, it describes 5 generations of gay men defined by the historical periods they came of age in and the health issues that impacted each group. The document concludes by discussing implications for research, practice, and advocacy including considering different generational perspectives and voices.

This document discusses indigenous traditions in North America and Aotearoa (New Zealand) that recognized multiple gender identities and same-sex relationships. It notes that over 150 indigenous nations in North America had traditions recognizing "Two Spirit" people, who embodied both male and female spirits. These traditions challenged colonial views that imposed rigid binary systems. Despite facing violence from colonizers, some nations initially protected Two Spirit people, though later denied these traditions under colonial pressure. The document also discusses traditional Māori acceptance of diverse sexualities, and the contemporary concepts of "takatapui" and efforts to address HIV/AIDS in culturally appropriate, identity-affirming ways for indigenous communities. It calls for decolonizing approaches and indigenous

This document summarizes interviews with 43 newly diagnosed HIV-positive men in Toronto. Many reported experiences with childhood abuse, depression, polydrug use, and partner violence, supporting the "syndemics hypothesis" that these psychosocial problems interact to worsen the HIV epidemic. However, some men acquired HIV through relationships, travel, or other means outside this framework. The researchers aim to understand resilience as well as risks, and how to build healthier communities through addressing trauma, promoting well-being, and fostering social connections rather than pathologizing groups. The study was conducted by researchers from various universities and health organizations, funded by CIHR.

This document outlines a study on gay men's experiences receiving an acute or recent HIV diagnosis. The study recruited 25 men diagnosed through enhanced testing technology in Vancouver. It found that receiving diagnoses over the phone or experiencing initial uncertainty was challenging. For those diagnosed during acute infection, there was confusion about the meaning and increased infectiousness of this stage. While most saw themselves the same as other HIV+ men, some reduced sexual activity during acute infection due to higher viral loads. The study highlights the importance of considering the social aspects of new diagnostic technologies and ensuring sensitive communication of results.

This document summarizes research on social determinants of health for LGBT populations. It discusses minority stress theory and how experiences of discrimination and social disadvantage can negatively impact health outcomes for gay and bisexual men. The document presents results from a national online survey of over 8,000 Canadian men seeking men, finding higher rates of discrimination, mental health issues, sexually risky behavior and other adverse health outcomes among bisexual men and married/partnered men compared to gay men. The results suggest that addressing discrimination and social inequities could help reduce health disparities within the LGBT community.
915 beyond behaviors conference 2013 Adam Green
This document discusses research on factors influencing HIV risk behaviors among gay and bisexual men. It summarizes several key studies that have identified complex psychological and social reasons for unprotected sex, including sexual pleasure and intimacy, ambiguity around risk, and relationships dynamics. While behavioral interventions have had limited effectiveness, HIV diagnosis rates among men who have sex with men have declined in several Western countries since peaking in the 1990s or early 2000s. However, standalone behavioral interventions are not sufficient to significantly reduce HIV transmission.
115 1 beyond behaviours minority stress
The document discusses syndemics, which are closely intertwined health problems that mutually reinforce each other within social contexts. Examples include the SAVA syndemic of substance abuse, violence, and AIDS. Research found that psychological problems like depression, childhood abuse, and partner violence increased risks of unprotected sex and HIV infection among gay men. Minority stress models show how homophobia leads to poor health outcomes by increasing psychological stress. Potential solutions discussed include increasing LGBTQ health access, anti-homophobia education and legislation, and community programs.

The document summarizes a study on the experiences of gay men who were victims of homophobic attacks (gay bashing). Seven men were interviewed about experiences with physical violence, verbal harassment, or both. Four men experienced physical assaults severe enough to require hospitalization. Themes that emerged from the interviews included personal experiences with homophobia, identity changes after an attack, isolation, and feelings of powerlessness. Recommendations focused on improving supports for victims, increasing LGBTQ education for social workers, medical professionals, police, and educators, and fostering more inclusive communities.
22 patricia millernov1
This study examined the prevalence and impact of intimate partner violence (IPV) among gay and bisexual men living with HIV. The researchers found that 22.4% of men reported experiencing IPV, most commonly emotional and physical abuse. Experiencing IPV was associated with factors like being Aboriginal, childhood abuse, mental health issues, risky sexual behaviors, poorer quality of life, interruptions in HIV care, and higher rates of AIDS progression and HIV-related hospitalizations. The results suggest IPV is an important but underrecognized issue that can negatively impact the health and well-being of HIV-positive gay and bisexual men.

GASTROINTESTINAL INFECTIONS AND GASTRITIS
Osvaldo Bernardo Muchanga
Gastrointestinal Infections
GASTROINTESTINAL INFECTIONS result from the ingestion of pathogens that cause infections at the level of this tract, generally being transmitted by food, water and hands contaminated by microorganisms such as E. coli, Salmonella, Shigella, Vibrio cholerae, Campylobacter, Staphylococcus, Rotavirus among others that are generally contained in feces, thus configuring a FECAL-ORAL type of transmission.
Among the factors that lead to the occurrence of gastrointestinal infections are the hygienic and sanitary deficiencies that characterize our markets and other places where raw or cooked food is sold, poor environmental sanitation in communities, deficiencies in water treatment (or in the process of its plumbing), risky hygienic-sanitary habits (not washing hands after major and/or minor needs), among others.
These are generally consequences (signs and symptoms) resulting from gastrointestinal infections: diarrhea, vomiting, fever and malaise, among others.
The treatment consists of replacing lost liquids and electrolytes (drinking drinking water and other recommended liquids, including consumption of juicy fruits such as papayas, apples, pears, among others that contain water in their composition).
To prevent this, it is necessary to promote health education, improve the hygienic-sanitary conditions of markets and communities in general as a way of promoting, preserving and prolonging PUBLIC HEALTH.
Gastritis and Gastric Health
Gastric Health is one of the most relevant concerns in human health, with gastrointestinal infections being among the main illnesses that affect humans.
Among gastric problems, we have GASTRITIS AND GASTRIC ULCERS as the main public health problems. Gastritis and gastric ulcers normally result from inflammation and corrosion of the walls of the stomach (gastric mucosa) and are generally associated (caused) by the bacterium Helicobacter pylor, which, according to the literature, this bacterium settles on these walls (of the stomach) and starts to release urease that ends up altering the normal pH of the stomach (acid), which leads to inflammation and corrosion of the mucous membranes and consequent gastritis or ulcers, respectively.
In addition to bacterial infections, gastritis and gastric ulcers are associated with several factors, with emphasis on prolonged fasting, chemical substances including drugs, alcohol, foods with strong seasonings including chilli, which ends up causing inflammation of the stomach walls and/or corrosion. of the same, resulting in the appearance of wounds and consequent gastritis or ulcers, respectively.
Among patients with gastritis and/or ulcers, one of the dilemmas is associated with the foods to consume in order to minimize the sensation of pain and discomfort. Nano-gold for Cancer Therapy chemistry investigatory project

PGx Analysis in VarSeq: A User’s Perspective
Since our release of the PGx capabilities in VarSeq, we’ve had a few months to gather some insights from various use cases. Some users approach PGx workflows by means of array genotyping or what seems to be a growing trend of adding the star allele calling to the existing NGS pipeline for whole genome data. Luckily, both approaches are supported with the VarSeq software platform. The genotyping method being used will also dictate what the scope of the tertiary analysis will be. For example, are your PGx reports a standalone pipeline or would your lab’s goal be to handle a dual-purpose workflow and report on PGx + Diagnostic findings.
The purpose of this webcast is to:
Discuss and demonstrate the approaches with array and NGS genotyping methods for star allele calling to prep for downstream analysis.
Following genotyping, explore alternative tertiary workflow concepts in VarSeq to handle PGx reporting.
Moreover, we will include insights users will need to consider when validating their PGx workflow for all possible star alleles and options you have for automating your PGx analysis for large number of samples. Please join us for a session dedicated to the application of star allele genotyping and subsequent PGx workflows in our VarSeq software.

Pharmacology of Drugs for Congestive Heart Failure
Congestive Heart failure is caused by low cardiac output and high sympathetic discharge. Diuretics reduce preload, ACE inhibitors lower afterload, beta blockers reduce sympathetic activity, and digitalis has inotropic effects. Newer medications target vasodilation and myosin activation to improve heart efficiency while lowering energy requirements. Combination therapy, following an assessment of cardiac function and volume status, is the most effective strategy to heart failure care.
