This document discusses eugenics, which aims to improve the genetic composition of populations. It was coined by Francis Galton in 1883 from the Greek words for "good" or "well" and "born." Eugenics involves selective breeding and reproductive choices to achieve societal goals like decreasing hereditary disease and improving health. Both positive eugenics, which encourages reproduction among genetically advantaged groups, and negative eugenics, which aims to reduce fertility among genetically disadvantaged groups, have been proposed. However, negative eugenics is now widely considered immoral. Other eugenic measures discussed include genetic counseling, marriage restrictions, birth control, early diagnosis and treatment of diseases, and segregation of mentally ill individuals. The
Eugenics is the science which deals with all influences that improve inborn qualities of a race, also with those that develop them to almost advantage.
Eugenics is the scientifically erroneous and immoral theory of “racial improvement” and “planned breeding,” which gained popularity during the early 20th century. Eugenicists worldwide believed that they could perfect human beings and eliminate so-called social ills through genetics and heredity.

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

This book contains 25 chapters called as prakaranas. Many rasaoushadis were explained, pioneer of dhatu druti, nadi pareeksha, mutra pareeksha etc. Belongs to the period of 15-16 century. New diseases like upadamsha, phiranga rogas are explained.
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.
Esta publicação só está disponível em inglês até o momento.

2. INTRODUCTION
This word Eugenics was coined by Francis Galton in
1883.this has been derived from Greek word .
Eu – good or well
Genes – born
In a broader sense ,it is considered as study of
improving the genetic qualities
In 1904 Francis Galton gave the definition of
eugenics
Eugenics is defined as the science which
deals with all influences that improves inborn
qualities of race.
3. contd..
British medical association
Eugenics is defined as the study and
practice of method designed to
improve the quality of the race
especially selective breeding .This
involves in reproductive choices in
order to obtain societal goal.
4. Concern of Eugenics
Decrease hereditary disease
Improve the health status of the people or
community
Create awareness by educating through
eugenic measures
5. GOALS
To improve the genetic composition of population
AIMS OF EUGENICS
To save the resources
to create healthy people in the community
To have intelligent people and to have the community
free from mentally retarded people
To decrease the human sufferings
To reduce the economic burden on nation due to the
disease.
6. EUGENIC MEASURES
POSITIVE EUGENICS:
positive eugenics encourages reproduction among
genetically advantaged population .various ways of positive
eugenics in vitro fertilization, Egg transplant and cloning.
Positive eugenics is difficult to achieve due to:
1. Complexity of traits
2. Multifactorial of traits
3. Unawareness regarding which gene to be transmitted or
which not to be transmitted
(ie) which gene which quality, as number of genes are
appropriate 50,000 coming from mother and 50,000 from father.
7. Negative eugenics
It concerned with decreasing or lowering fertility among
genetic disadvantages
The various way of negative eugenics are
1.Abortion
2. Sterilisation
3. Adoption of Family planning
The various ways of negative eugenics stress on improving
the genetic endowment of the population by killing the
persons having weak and defective genes
8. Negative eugenics is considered
immoral
Enforces the sterilisation among genetically
defect people
Allows to kill institutional population
Eugenic focus on :
1. Euthenics
2. Genetic counselling
3.Marriage Restrictions
4.Birth control
5. Early diagnosis and treatment
6. Segregation of mentally ill from normal
9. EUTHENICS
Euthenics is manipulating the environment in
order to improve the genotype. As the
environmental factors are involved such as
smoking, diet, obesity and lack of exercise is
producing disease
A man is adopting environment ,it is considered
that improving genotype.
Specific protective measures can also be used to
reduce the risk of disease due to expose of
mutogens. eg. UV rays
Lead aprons exposed to X-rays or radiation reduce
the risk of mutation reducing morbidity and
improving health.
10. GENETIC COUNSELLING
It Includes screening of cases and informing them the
risk of having affected children.
Genetic counselling is one of the way to prevent the
occurrence of hereditary disease among the population.
It involves information various ways of eugenics to
people reduce further occurence.
Information is provided by the nurse regarding the
correction of disease ,prognosis and burden of care.
Information is provided by the community health nurse
during antenatal period to detect neonatal abnormalities
and neurological disorders by aminocentesis.
The information provided by the nurse regarding the
birth control measures helps in achieving the community
health.
11. MARRIAGE RESTRICTIONS
Marriage among the individuals with sufferings
like congenital abnormalities Mental retardation,
gout, thalassemia, sickle cell anemia increase
the risk of defective children.
Consanguineous marriage can cause increased
risk in the off springs of the recessive traits.
Late marriage increase the risk of genetic
disease such as down syndrome
Community health nurse should aware of the
marriage occuring among the close family
relations.
12. BIRTH CONTROL
The is to reduce the frequency of
hereditary disease and disability in the
community.
Community health nurse teaches the
community for adaption of birth control
measures.
Temporary and permanent methods to
reduce the occurrence of hereditary
disease.
13. EARLY DIAGNOSIS AND
TREATMENT
Identifying the possibility of
chromosomal abnormalities ,when fetus is
in uterus by amniocentesis performed
within 10 -14 weeks of pregnancy.
Screening the babies ,once born for same
disease as cystic fibrosis phenylketonuria
,dislocation of hip.
Early detection of cases who suffering
from disease such as gout ,thalassemia
etc.
14. SEGREGATION OF MENTALLY
ILL FROM NORMAL
There is need to segregate the
mentally ill child among community .
Mentally ill persons who lives in
community get married ,off spring
will have abnormal genes and lead to
more of hereditary disease among the
community.
15. APPLICATION OF
EUGENICS
Government level :
Government should make polices and legislation to
achieve health community through eugenics
,implemented and evaluated to see the effect.
Population level:
Eugenics should be promoted among general population
through education using democratic approach.
At individual level:
• Eugenics should be practised by an individual on basis
of the decision.
16. ROLE OF COMMUNITY
HEALTH NURSE
1. She provides education to people about
the hereditary risk for developing the
disease.
2. She managed the disease based on
genetic information and analysis of
data.
3. Identify the hereditary disease and
motivate them to seek medical
treatment.
4. She provide genetic counselling to the
people and teach eugenic methods
,birth control and marriage restrictions
