Speaker: Stephen Selkowitz, Group Leader, Windows and Building Envelope Materials Group & Senior Advisor, Building Technologies and Urban Systems Department, Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory
Synopsis:
Enhancing building performance is a central feature of Singapore’s quest for a green building future and this need is echoed across the planet. Global climate change, resource challenges and environmental quality are urgent motivations for transforming the patterns and practices of energy use in the building sector.
This is reinforced with the growing interest in enhancing the indoor environment of buildings to enhance health, comfort and performance, and in tying the operation and performance of buildings more intimately to the electric grid that supplies them. A plausible set of questions to ask in terms of building performance is “What performance goals should we achieve?” and “How are we going to get there?” We explore the answers to these questions through the perspective of recent experience in the U.S. and try to understand the similarities and differences in experience between Europe, Asia and the U.S. Two key perspectives are explored: 1) the degree to which new technologies, integrated systems and human-centered design practice allows us to approach the vision of Zero Energy Buildings and 2) the gap that remains between what has been achieved as proof-of-concept and by innovative teams vs. what has proven feasible to rapidly scale.

Opportunities for the future of occupational cancer researchCheryl Peters
This document discusses opportunities for advancing occupational cancer research in Canada. It notes that Canada has traditionally been a leader in this area through major epidemiological studies and exposure assessment methods. However, health administrative data lacks occupation and industry information, limiting its potential. Record linkage projects through Statistics Canada like the Canadian Census-Tax-Mortality Cohort provide opportunities but have limitations. Advancing exposure assessment, leveraging existing large cohorts, developing a Canadian occupational health network, and obtaining funding remain key challenges and opportunities to further occupational cancer research in Canada.
This study analyzed the relationship between occupational exposure to crystalline silica and asbestos and risk of kidney cancer in Canadian men. The study found that workers exposed to silica did not have an increased risk of kidney cancer. Workers exposed to asbestos did have a higher odds of kidney cancer, with the odds increasing with higher levels of exposure. Specifically, workers with any history of asbestos exposure had increased odds, and odds were higher with higher attained concentrations of exposure, though not significantly. Increasing BMI was associated with increased kidney cancer risk, while smoking was not.
Keynote presentation by UBC's Rachel Murphy on the epidemiology of kidney cancer. Presented at the ON-DECK Knowledge Translation event in Vancouver, November 7th, 2017
This study examined the relationship between occupational exposure to gasoline and diesel exhaust and kidney cancer risk in Canadian men. The study found that workers exposed to diesel exhaust had a 40% higher odds of kidney cancer, while those exposed to gasoline exhaust had a 70% higher odds. Workers with high cumulative exposure to both exhausts faced the highest odds. The results suggest that occupational exposure to gasoline and diesel exhausts are associated with increased risk of kidney cancer, and this risk is greatest for those with high exposures to both.

ABDOMINAL TRAUMA in pediatrics part one.drhasanrajab
Abdominal trauma in pediatrics refers to injuries or damage to the abdominal organs in children. It can occur due to various causes such as falls, motor vehicle accidents, sports-related injuries, and physical abuse. Children are more vulnerable to abdominal trauma due to their unique anatomical and physiological characteristics. Signs and symptoms include abdominal pain, tenderness, distension, vomiting, and signs of shock. Diagnosis involves physical examination, imaging studies, and laboratory tests. Management depends on the severity and may involve conservative treatment or surgical intervention. Prevention is crucial in reducing the incidence of abdominal trauma in children.

Local Advanced Lung Cancer: Artificial Intelligence, Synergetics, Complex Sys...Oleg Kshivets
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).

Muktapishti is a traditional Ayurvedic preparation made from Shoditha Mukta (Purified Pearl), is believed to help regulate thyroid function and reduce symptoms of hyperthyroidism due to its cooling and balancing properties. Clinical evidence on its efficacy remains limited, necessitating further research to validate its therapeutic benefits.
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.

NVBDCP.pptx Nation vector borne disease control programSapna Thakur
NVBDCP was launched in 2003-2004 . Vector-Borne Disease: Disease that results from an infection transmitted to humans and other animals by blood-feeding arthropods, such as mosquitoes, ticks, and fleas. Examples of vector-borne diseases include Dengue fever, West Nile Virus, Lyme disease, and malaria.
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.

5. Silica in Construction
§ 380 000 Canadians
exposed
§ 56% in construction
§ 200 000 construction
workers exposed
6. Construction Industry Challenges
• Work sites change rapidly
• Workers and companies move between sites
• Tasks vary within and between work shifts
• ~95% of BC employers are SMEs (small and medium employers)
• Lack of exposure measurement data and hygiene expertize
7. Substance specific requirements for silica.
■ Requirement to monitor exposure for any “work activity
that generates RCS dust” and create Exposure Control
Plan
■ Monitoring can be based on “objective monitoring data,
that was collected during equivalent work operations
through industry surveys or peer-reviewed or scientific
studies…”
7
Regulation Change
8. An On-Line Silica “Tool”
■ BCCSA partnership with UBC and WorkSafeBC
■ Help employers effectively use “Equivalent Work Operations”
clause
■ Educate employers
■ Reduce effort and cost
■ Improve quality of exposure data
■ Help produce effective ECP’s
9. Benefits of Quantitative Approach
■ Employers/employees become more knowledgeable
– See and compare objective evidence of
exposure, and control effectiveness
■ Monitor trends in exposures
– Provides benchmark data
■ Compare control options – identify “best practices”
■ More easily calibrated to other jurisdictions
■ Promote data sharing
