Terror and Disease: Wll Fear Deter Summer Travelers? by Bianna GolodrygaBianna Golodryga
The recent terrorist attacks Orlando, Paris and Brussels, bombings in Turkey and reports of the Zika virus making its way around the world may have you wondering whether it’s wise to jet off for a vacation this summer. In this presentation, Bianna Golodryga takes a closer look at how global events could affect your summer travel plans, and what to expect in terms of safety and security.
This document discusses Health Canada's Special Access Programme (SAP), which allows access to drugs that have not received market authorization for patients with serious or life-threatening conditions. The SAP received over 16,000 requests in 2015 to access about 500 drugs. While the SAP provides access to unapproved drugs that may help patients, it also has limitations compared to approved drugs due to limited safety and efficacy information. Health Canada aims to improve the SAP by transitioning some drugs to full market approval and making the application process more efficient.

This document contains creative concepts and ideas for potential advertising campaigns. It includes:
- A concept to leverage the popular "Keep Calm and Carry On" meme to promote Magnolia Sherbet's calming effect. The campaign would use the line "KEEP CALM AND ENJOY SHERBET".
- A concept for Jobstreet called "Find your happy" playing on the grammatical error of using "happy" as a noun, though some saw it as a mistake.
- A positive recollection of handling the Curve mall account and producing a delightful Raya ad featuring a dance routine.

This document summarizes findings from the Continuous Update Project (CUP) on diet, weight, physical activity and cancer risk. The CUP analyzes global research on cancer prevention and survival. The summary identifies several factors that increase cancer risk, such as being overweight, eating processed meat, drinking alcohol, and smoking. It also identifies factors that decrease cancer risk, such as eating vegetables, fruits, whole grains, and engaging in physical activity. The CUP findings are used to update the World Cancer Research Fund's Cancer Prevention Recommendations.
This study assessed the risk factors for breast cancer development in Indian women. Between 2002-2005, 1866 breast cancer patients and 1873 controls were interviewed to collect data on lifestyle, reproductive history, and anthropometric measurements. For premenopausal women, higher BMI, waist circumference, and body size at younger ages were associated with increased breast cancer risk. Higher levels of physical activity, especially household chores, were linked to lower risk. Among postmenopausal women, larger hip size and body size at younger ages increased risk, while higher physical activity and waist-to-hip ratio reduced risk. The study concluded that anthropometric factors and physical activity influence breast cancer risk in Indian women.

The document summarizes a study that examined the correlation between anthropometric parameters (age, body mass index, waist-hip ratio) and blood pressure in normotensive males. The study involved 40 male subjects divided into two age groups (18-59 years and 60+ years). Measurements of height, weight, BMI, WHR and blood pressure were taken. Statistical analysis found BMI and WHR showed a statistically significant positive correlation with diastolic blood pressure, but age did not correlate with systolic or diastolic blood pressure. The study concluded anthropometric measures like BMI and WHR may impact blood pressure in normotensive males.

Diet and breast cancer survival: results of the Continuous Update Project (CUP). Presentation given by Teresa Norat, Principal Investigator Continuous Update Project, Imperial College London.
This document summarizes data from an analysis of growth and carcass traits in Angus and Hereford cattle from multiple herds over time. Some key findings include:
1) Traits like weight, fat thickness and muscle area showed moderate to high heritability and genetic correlations between time periods, indicating these traits are genetically repeatable over time.
2) Cows experienced substantial changes in weight and composition throughout lactation and between parities. Change in weight had low heritability.
3) Genetic trends show rapid improvement in growth traits, body composition and profitability in the national herd, suggesting these trends will continue to accelerate with ongoing selection.
Cultural and Aspects of Communication Geolocation in TwitterElena Daehnhardt
Presented at The Third ASE Social Informatics conference at Harvard University.
Abstract:
Web applications exploit user information from social networks and online user activities to facilitate interaction and create an enhanced user experience. Due to privacy issues however, it might be difficult to extract user data from social network, in particular location data. For instance, information on user location depends on users’ agreement to share own geographic data. Instead of directly collecting personal user information, we aim to infer user preferences by detecting behavior patterns from publicly available micro blogging content and users’ followers’ network. With statistical and machine-learning methods, we employ Twitter-specific features to predict country origin of users on Twitter with an accuracy of more than 90% for users from the most active countries. We further investigate users’ interpersonal communication with their followers. Our findings reveal that belonging to a particular cultural group is playing an important role in increasing users responses to their friends. The knowledge on user cultural origins thus could provide a differentiated state-of-the-art user experience in microblogs, for instance, in friend recommendation scenario.

1) The study examined the relationship between past sunlight exposure and survival rates in lymphoma patients in Singapore, where sunlight is constant throughout the year. 2) They found that increased lifetime occupational sunlight exposure, measured in hours per day, was associated with decreased overall survival rates for all lymphoma subtypes, non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL), and diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) specifically. 3) Light eye color and dark brown/black skin color, indicators of lower ability to tan and higher sensitivity to sunlight, were also associated with decreased survival rates for lymphoma patients.
Continuous Update Project: Database update and systematic literature review. Presentation given by Teresa Norat, Principal Investigator Continuous Update Project, Imperial College London.
This document summarizes a study that evaluated logistic and Cox regression models using simulated survival data. It simulated survival times based on Cox-Weibull distributions and compared the relative bias and relative ratio of estimates from logistic versus Cox models. The simulation found that logistic regression had smaller relative bias than Cox for stronger treatment effects, while Cox had smaller relative bias for longer follow-up times and smaller sample sizes. Both models performed similarly regarding mean survival time. A case study using real word data on cardiovascular risks in diabetics treated with ARBs found similar results.

The document summarizes a randomized controlled trial that compares intermittent energy restriction (IER) to continuous energy restriction (CER) in women receiving chemotherapy for early breast cancer. The trial aims to test if IER is feasible for women on chemotherapy and to compare the two diets' effects on weight changes, body composition, chemotherapy toxicity, and blood biomarkers. Over 470 women were screened for eligibility, with 172 women enrolled and randomly assigned to receive individual counseling and support for either the IER or CER diet during their 4.5-6 months of chemotherapy. Outcomes will be assessed after chemotherapy completion to analyze differences between the diet groups.

This document describes the Continuous Update Project, a novel approach developed by the World Cancer Research Fund to systematically review mechanistic evidence on diet, nutrition, physical activity and cancer. The approach involves conducting systematic reviews and meta-analyses of both epidemiological and mechanistic studies to make judgements on causal relationships. It emphasizes reproducibility, predefined criteria, and reviews evidence separately from making judgements. The goal is to help identify causal links between exposures and cancer outcomes.
This document provides various fundraising ideas that individuals and organizations can do to support the World Cancer Research Fund, including hosting events like quiz nights, dress down days at work, banana runs in the park, and golf tournaments. It also suggests challenges people can take on like skydiving, cycling long distances, and running marathons. The final sentences discuss additional ways to fundraise like recycling ink cartridges, payroll donations, selling pin badges, and donating birthdays or proceeds from online shopping.

The document discusses policies that can help reduce sugar consumption to meet WHO guidelines. It provides examples of policies that have successfully reduced the availability of sugary products, increased the acceptability of alternatives, and raised awareness of sugar content. These include school nutrition standards in Australia that eliminated high-sugar "red" foods and drinks from schools, front-of-package labels in the Netherlands that led food companies to reformulate products, and soda taxes in Mexico and France that made sugary drinks less affordable.

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.

Overall life span (LS) was 1671.7±1721.6 days and cumulative 5YS reached 62.4%, 10 years – 50.4%, 20 years – 44.6%. 94 LCP lived more than 5 years without cancer (LS=2958.6±1723.6 days), 22 – more than 10 years (LS=5571±1841.8 days). 67 LCP died because of LC (LS=471.9±344 days). AT significantly improved 5YS (68% vs. 53.7%) (P=0.028 by log-rank test). Cox modeling displayed that 5YS of LCP significantly depended on: N0-N12, T3-4, blood cell circuit, cell ratio factors (ratio between cancer cells-CC and blood cells subpopulations), LC cell dynamics, recalcification time, heparin tolerance, prothrombin index, protein, AT, procedure type (P=0.000-0.031). Neural networks, genetic algorithm selection and bootstrap simulation revealed relationships between 5YS and N0-12 (rank=1), thrombocytes/CC (rank=2), segmented neutrophils/CC (3), eosinophils/CC (4), erythrocytes/CC (5), healthy cells/CC (6), lymphocytes/CC (7), stick neutrophils/CC (8), leucocytes/CC (9), monocytes/CC (10). Correct prediction of 5YS was 100% by neural networks computing (error=0.000; area under ROC curve=1.0).
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.
