The ethics of electives
This document discusses medical student electives in developing countries. It notes potential benefits like exposure to rare diseases and personal growth, but also flags ethical issues. Electives could exploit local health systems and raise false expectations. They may perpetuate neo-colonial practices by benefiting students and health systems in wealthy countries more than local populations. The document also examines how non-governmental organizations can undermine public health systems and calls for electives to minimize harm, respect local needs, and establish long-term exchange programs to provide mutual benefit.
Ayurveda Education: Challenges and the way forward
- Ayurveda education programs in India are facing major challenges, including a lack of good students who prefer to pursue MBBS degrees instead. After failing MBBS entrance exams multiple times, some students join Ayurveda programs, wasting approximately 40,000 youthful human years each year.
- Ayurveda programs are considered a "dead end" with minimal application-based learning and students are not eligible for further education in core sciences. There is also a huge gap in maintaining proper patient records and corruption with "ghost teachers and students."
- To improve Ayurveda education, the author calls for evidence-informed policymaking, a shift away from mimicking biomedical research methods, introducing specializations
Challenges and solutions: Ayurveda education
The document discusses challenges facing Ayurveda education in India and proposes ways to improve it. Key issues include many students who fail to get into MBBS programs joining Ayurveda instead, resulting in wasted years; Ayurveda programs not providing enough practical exposure or eligibility for further education; and a huge gap between good and poor institutions, with some maintaining fake patient records. Suggested reforms are introducing evidence-based policymaking; allowing research that follows Ayurveda principles; showcasing success stories; promoting specialization; integrating Ayurveda into mainstream medical education; and ensuring quality and competence of teachers and programs.
LD-Nursing-report-Jan-15-Final
The UK Learning and Intellectual Disability Nursing Academic Network (LIDNAN) and the UK Council of Deans of Health (CoDH) partnered on a project to address how pre-registration nursing students in fields other than learning disabilities can develop skills to work with people with learning disabilities. The project was prompted by a recommendation in the 2012 Strengthening the Commitment report, which called for core knowledge and skills in this area. A literature review found that people with learning disabilities experience worse health outcomes and barriers to healthcare access. Staff often lack training in learning disabilities, resulting in issues like diagnostic overshadowing. The project aimed to identify competencies and strategies to support education providers in teaching these important skills.

School Health Programme
When we think of children’s academic success we think of reputed schools, talented teachers and diligent study by the students. Very often we fail to think of the possibility of child’s health being a deciding factor of the degree of success can attain. Being healthy physically, mentally and emotionally is a major factor that influence child’s ability to perform to her full potential.
Undiagnosed, untreated and often undetected minor medical problems can be major impediments in child’s achievement in school and in life.

Tradtional and complementary medicine
This document discusses integrating traditional and complementary medicine (T&CM) into medical school curricula. It provides an overview of T&CM, noting that it has a long history of use in health maintenance and disease treatment. The document argues that T&CM should be incorporated into medical education to improve students' knowledge, patient safety, discovery of new drugs, and cultural understanding. It proposes introducing T&CM theories and principles into preclinical years and practical demonstrations with traditional practitioners in clinical years. Potential challenges to implementation include finding qualified teachers and resources, as well as issues around time, finances, and acceptance. The conclusion is that ignoring T&CM is misguided and medical education should incorporate this important component of healthcare.

Debat Health Literacy Onafhankelijke Ziekenfondsen.
Health literacy is a person's ability to access, understand, appraise and apply health information to make judgments and decisions about their healthcare, disease prevention and promotion to improve their quality of life. It is determined by education level but also mediates the relationship between socioeconomic status and health outcomes. People with low health literacy have more difficulty navigating healthcare systems and following treatment plans, resulting in worse health and higher costs. Improving health literacy requires a coordinated effort between healthcare providers, through simplifying communication and materials, and policymakers, through expanding health education programs.

Cell Therapy Expansion and Challenges in Autoimmune Disease
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.

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.Histololgy of Female Reproductive System.pptx

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).

- 5. Health Sciences education in Nepal After the restoration of democracy in 1990 and liberal policies in the field of education and health sector, tremendous boom in the health sciences education in Nepal. – In 1990: 1 medical college (Capacity of producing 40 doctors/year) for almost previous 15 years. – In 2008: About 14 medical colleges (Capacity of producing about 1400 doctors/ year) – Still more in pipeline.. – Similar growth in other allied health sciences field..
- 6. Health Sciences education in Nepal • Less addressed issues: – Dichotomy between government health system and the private sector initiatives – Poor integration of the health sciences institutions with the national health system
- 7. Community Based Learning • Principles – The setting in which the students of health sciences get education does not always reflect the situation of the country in a broader sense. – The need is to develop not just medicos but also leaders in their concerned fields. – Real life exposure is essential Institutional Objective of the medical program of KUSMS – Holistic approach competent and socially responsible Technically to health physicians to meet the existing emerging health needs
- 8. Community Based Learning • Activities – Stay with the community – First understand the problems – Discuss on the problems – Plan interventions – Arrange for continuity of the activities by the community – Different activities as per different disciplines
- 18. Community Based Learning Experience so far…. – The extent of CBL is different in different institutions – Dhulikhel Hospital Kathmandu University Teaching Hospital is a community based organization. – Network of its own different community based outreaches in rural areas
- 19. Community Based Learning • Benefits – Change in perspective – Unexpected situation/ challenges – Real-life exposure to the different health related issues – Sense of satisfaction because of reaching to the people who would have otherwise remained away from the services – Less cost incurred for a greater volume of activities – Encouragement for newer things – Newer insights
- 20. Community Based Learning • Limitations – Rather difficult in adjusting to new places and with new people. – Worse attitude towards the challenges (Discouraging effects) NOT ALWAYS !!
- 21. Community Based Learning • Opportunities – Every community acts differently – Activities can be different – More systematic and scientific approach necessary – Involvement of foreign students
- 22. Community Based Learning • Challenges – Trend of technology driven health sciences education – More financial drive/ glamour – Brain-drain
