The document discusses targeted research on the gender dimensions of climate change adaptation. It outlines that climate impacts will worsen gender inequality across African society. Research is needed to understand climate impacts on different groups, vulnerabilities, barriers to adaptation, and how responses can interact with gender. Data gathering frameworks must be reformed to integrate gender dimensions and collect credible gender data. The research should inform advocacy, use participatory processes, and propose gender-responsive policy options to enable adaptation with measurable outcomes and ongoing policy analysis. More women researchers are also needed to ensure diverse perspectives are incorporated.
The policy story: population, health and environmentIIED
The document discusses the linkages between population, health, and the environment. It notes that a rights-based approach to family planning can help fulfill unmet need for contraception, which represents 222 million women globally who want to delay or prevent pregnancy. The document also discusses opportunities to advance population dynamics and climate change adaptation, as well as hotspots where population and climate change intersect. It advocates for integrating population, health, and environment approaches and explores opportunities for policy advocacy in this area.
Community organizing aims to empower communities to work together to address health and social issues. It involves identifying common problems, mobilizing resources, and developing strategies to achieve collectively set goals. Successful community organizing assumes that community members themselves are best positioned to create solutions and that participation and consensus-building are key. The process generally begins with a community member recognizing an issue and deciding to address it. Organizers then work to understand community perspectives and build a coalition to prioritize the issue and develop an intervention strategy. Evaluation ensures the program achieves its intended outcomes and benefits the community.
Presentation is about the uniqueness of Implementation Research and Role of the Government, specially in Indian context of health programme implementation.

The document summarizes GOAL's work using the Determinants-Based Framework (DBC) to address barriers to women's empowerment and decision making around health in Kutum, North Darfur, Sudan. It identifies key barriers like access to money and social norms, and describes activities like village savings groups and discussions with community leaders to influence these determinants. Early results show an increase in women's contributions to healthcare decisions and approval of this from community leaders. The DBC approach is found to build an evidence base and respect community needs over assumptions.
This document outlines the key points from a training on health impact assessments (HIAs). It discusses what an HIA is, the typical phases of an HIA (screening, scoping, assessment, recommendations, reporting and monitoring), and why HIAs are useful for integrating health considerations into decision-making across sectors. The training also reviews national policies that encourage the use of HIAs, examples of topics and geographic areas that HIAs have addressed, and best practices for conducting an effective HIA.
The document discusses the components of a Coordinated School Health Program (CSHP) which aims to promote student and staff health and well-being. A CSHP includes administration, health services, education, environment, and family involvement components. It is overseen by a school health council comprising community stakeholders. The school nurse and teachers play important roles in implementing the program. Challenges to effective CSHP implementation include lack of funding, curriculum controversies, and addressing issues like violence and access to healthcare on school grounds.

This document discusses health impact assessments (HIAs). HIAs are used to evaluate potential health effects of policies, plans and projects in diverse sectors such as transportation, housing and urban planning. The summary is:
An HIA is a process that evaluates the potential health impacts of a project or policy, involves stakeholders, considers trade-offs of alternatives, and offers recommendations to decision-makers to maximize health benefits and minimize harm. The HIA process includes scoping, assessment, recommendations and reporting. HIAs are guided by principles of democracy, equity, sustainability and using evidence ethically. They take a comprehensive view of health as determined by multiple social, economic and environmental factors.

Developing non-clinical approaches and are pathways to fundamental socioeconomic issues that are presented in the primary care and secondary care settings
This document compares four major health promotion and chronic disease prevention programs in Thailand run by different organizations: the Strong Disease Control District program, the Village Health Management program, the Community with No Belly program, and the Local Health Security Funds. It analyzes and compares the programs based on WHO's health system framework, looking at characteristics, resources, services, and evaluations. The analysis found that while the programs have similar goals, they differ in settings and processes. It recommends integrating activities to reduce redundancy, enhancing social planning, and improving outcome evaluations.

This document summarizes a presentation on strengthening human and animal health in Southeast Asia using a One Health approach. The presentation discusses:
1) What One Health is - an initiative that recognizes the interconnectedness of human, animal, and environmental health.
2) The rationale for using a One Health approach in Southeast Asia, which is a hotspot for transboundary and emerging diseases in livestock due to illegal animal movement and climate change. There is also limited access to reliable health services.
3) The project aims to strengthen government and community capacity to prevent and control health risks through tools and gender-focused interventions in Vietnam, Cambodia, Laos and Myanmar over 4 years with a $6.5 million budget.
Beyond scaling up Bloom at the Global SymposiumIDS
The document discusses pathways to universal access to health services. It addresses the challenges of rapidly scaling up health systems, including managing change in complex contexts and meeting the needs of the poor. It also discusses taking management systems to scale, spreading learning from pilots, public sector reform, innovation systems for health, and discontinuity and disruption in health services. The objectives of the document are to explore approaches that foster innovation, learning and impact at large scale while considering context, and to identify practical collaboration approaches between stakeholders to strengthen health systems for the poor.

As health care and financing systems become more sophisticated, health care systems are increasingly using a process known as "risk tiering" to group patients with similar degrees of need for health care and care coordination services. Families and care providers of children with chronic and complex conditions should understand the risk tiering process, as it may affect access to services these children need.
Communities for Children evidence-based program requirement – where to from h...FRSA Communications
This document summarizes the requirements for evidence-based programs in the Communities for Children program. It outlines that from July 2015, 30% of funding must go to programs identified by an expert panel as having evidence of effectiveness, increasing to 50% in July 2017. It describes the criteria for programs to be included in the "Guidebook" of approved evidence-based programs or assessed as "other" programs. It provides examples of recently added programs and gives guidance on assessing program adaptations and deliveries in different locations. It emphasizes building the evidence base over the next two years and offers help to organizations through an inquiry helpdesk.
This document provides an overview of integrating gender into monitoring and evaluation (M&E) of HIV programs. It begins with definitions of key gender-related terms like sex, gender, gender equality, and gender identity. It then discusses why gender is important to consider for HIV outcomes and programming, noting how gender inequality can increase HIV risk. The document reviews approaches to collecting gender-sensitive monitoring and evaluation data, including sex-disaggregated indicators and indicators that directly measure gender attitudes, norms, and inequalities. It emphasizes integrating gender into all aspects of M&E systems and processes to help improve programs and demonstrate their impact on gender equality and HIV outcomes.

The document summarizes key findings from a survey of 500 male sexual partners of adolescent girls and young women in Port-au-Prince, Haiti and 300 male sexual partners in St. Marc, Haiti. The survey assessed HIV risk behaviors, testing, and relationships. Key results include: 1) Over 60% of men reported concurrent sexual partnerships. Concurrency was higher among those in age-discordant relationships (over 5 years older). 2) Condom use at last sex was around 75-80% but lower among those who purchased sex and those at higher risk. 3) Confidence in obtaining and using condoms correctly correlated with increased condom use.

This document discusses the prevalence of suicide and drug use globally, in Europe, and in Scotland. It notes that mental illness, especially depression and alcohol use disorders, are key risk factors for suicide. Those with substance use disorders are at much higher risk of suicide compared to the general population. The document also discusses examples of good practices for addressing co-morbidity of mental health and substance use disorders, such as joint training for staff, better communication between services, and integrated treatment pathways rather than sequential or separate treatment. It closes by opening the discussion up to questions.
Lizbeth Berrios Rosado found out she was pregnant at age 18 and in her first year of college, which was difficult to accept. With support from her family, she made some changes in her life and continued her studies positively while raising her son Wilmerjoel, even though she did not live with the father. The birth of her son was the happiest day of her life, filling her with love, happiness, and gratitude.

As health care and financing systems become more sophisticated, health care systems are increasingly using a process known as "risk tiering" to group patients with similar degrees of need for health care and care coordination services. Families and care providers of children with chronic and complex conditions should understand the risk tiering process, as it may affect access to services these children need.
Communities for Children evidence-based program requirement – where to from h...FRSA Communications
This document summarizes the requirements for evidence-based programs in the Communities for Children program. It outlines that from July 2015, 30% of funding must go to programs identified by an expert panel as having evidence of effectiveness, increasing to 50% in July 2017. It describes the criteria for programs to be included in the "Guidebook" of approved evidence-based programs or assessed as "other" programs. It provides examples of recently added programs and gives guidance on assessing program adaptations and deliveries in different locations. It emphasizes building the evidence base over the next two years and offers help to organizations through an inquiry helpdesk.
This document provides an overview of integrating gender into monitoring and evaluation (M&E) of HIV programs. It begins with definitions of key gender-related terms like sex, gender, gender equality, and gender identity. It then discusses why gender is important to consider for HIV outcomes and programming, noting how gender inequality can increase HIV risk. The document reviews approaches to collecting gender-sensitive monitoring and evaluation data, including sex-disaggregated indicators and indicators that directly measure gender attitudes, norms, and inequalities. It emphasizes integrating gender into all aspects of M&E systems and processes to help improve programs and demonstrate their impact on gender equality and HIV outcomes.

This document describes methods for analyzing seismic loads on circular tunnels in soft ground. It compares two approaches: 1) pseudo-static analysis, where seismic input is simplified to an equivalent inertia force or peak strain, and 2) full dynamic analysis, where soil-tunnel response is modeled numerically. The sample problem is a 6m diameter tunnel 15m deep in soft clay, sand, or gravel over bedrock. Pseudo-static analysis provides a fair approximation to dynamic analysis results by modeling soil non-linearity and equivalent linear analyses along the transverse direction under increasing complexity.

Health Impact Assessment & Planning- Sue Wright, RTPI CPD June 2013Design South East
HIA is a combination of procedures, methods and tools to systematically assess the potential health effects of policies, plans and projects on a population. It identifies appropriate actions to manage those effects. The purpose of HIA is to develop evidence-based recommendations to influence decision-making and improve health outcomes. HIA considers a broad definition of health and the wide determinants that influence health equity. It assesses how proposals may impact health through intermediate variables and outcomes. HIA adds value to decision-making by identifying unintended health impacts and inequalities not always addressed by other forms of assessment.

The PRECEDE-PROCEED framework is a planning model for health promotion programs consisting of five planning phases, an implementation phase, and three evaluation phases. It begins by identifying quality of life outcomes, then works backwards to determine behavioral, environmental, and educational factors to target through interventions. The model addresses both individual factors like knowledge, attitudes, and skills as well as external factors like policies, resources, and social norms that influence health behaviors. The goal is to systematically develop effective, community-oriented programs by understanding and targeting all relevant influences on health.

Evidence-Informed Public Health Decisions Made Easier: Take it one Step at a ...Health Evidence™
The document outlines the steps involved in evidence-informed public health decision making. It discusses defining a focused question, efficiently searching for relevant research evidence such as from systematic reviews, critically appraising the research methods, interpreting the results and adapting the information to the local context, deciding whether and how to implement changes, and evaluating the effectiveness of changes made. The goal is to integrate the best available research evidence with local factors to inform public health policies and practices.
The document discusses public health approaches and models. It differentiates between the public health model, which focuses on populations, disease prevention, health promotion and environmental/behavioral interventions, and the medical model, which focuses on individual diagnosis, treatment and medical interventions. The public health approach involves defining health problems, identifying risk factors, developing and testing population-level interventions, and monitoring/evaluating interventions. Key principles of public health approaches include focusing on overall population health, addressing multiple determinants of health, collaborating across sectors, basing decisions on evidence, and investing in upstream factors. Challenges to public health approaches include fragmentation, lack of resources, weak capacity and poor connections between research and policymaking.

Sex and Relationships Education for Young People with Additional Support NeedsLouise Jones
Sex and relationships education (SRE) aims to help young people learn about sex, relationships, emotions, and sexual health. Effective SRE programs use participatory teaching methods, focus on building skills and norms rather than just providing information, and aim to reduce risks. There is no evidence that SRE encourages earlier or increased sexual activity; it may actually delay sexual debut. Programs promoting postponing sex and safe sex practices are more effective than those focused only on abstinence. Schools and parents should work together to address young people's development through SRE. Barriers like disability stigma, lack of privacy, and inaccessible services make SRE especially important for young people with additional support needs.

5-hydroxytryptamine or 5-HT or Serotonin is a neurotransmitter that serves a range of roles in the human body. It is sometimes referred to as the happy chemical since it promotes overall well-being and happiness.
It is mostly found in the brain, intestines, and blood platelets.
5-HT is utilised to transport messages between nerve cells, is known to be involved in smooth muscle contraction, and adds to overall well-being and pleasure, among other benefits. 5-HT regulates the body's sleep-wake cycles and internal clock by acting as a precursor to melatonin.
It is hypothesised to regulate hunger, emotions, motor, cognitive, and autonomic processes.
Breast cancer: Post menopausal endocrine therapyDr. Sumit KUMAR
Breast cancer in postmenopausal women with hormone receptor-positive (HR+) status is a common and complex condition that necessitates a multifaceted approach to management. HR+ breast cancer means that the cancer cells grow in response to hormones such as estrogen and progesterone. This subtype is prevalent among postmenopausal women and typically exhibits a more indolent course compared to other forms of breast cancer, which allows for a variety of treatment options.
Diagnosis and Staging
The diagnosis of HR+ breast cancer begins with clinical evaluation, imaging, and biopsy. Imaging modalities such as mammography, ultrasound, and MRI help in assessing the extent of the disease. Histopathological examination and immunohistochemical staining of the biopsy sample confirm the diagnosis and hormone receptor status by identifying the presence of estrogen receptors (ER) and progesterone receptors (PR) on the tumor cells.
Staging involves determining the size of the tumor (T), the involvement of regional lymph nodes (N), and the presence of distant metastasis (M). The American Joint Committee on Cancer (AJCC) staging system is commonly used. Accurate staging is critical as it guides treatment decisions.
Treatment Options
Endocrine Therapy
Endocrine therapy is the cornerstone of treatment for HR+ breast cancer in postmenopausal women. The primary goal is to reduce the levels of estrogen or block its effects on cancer cells. Commonly used agents include:
Selective Estrogen Receptor Modulators (SERMs): Tamoxifen is a SERM that binds to estrogen receptors, blocking estrogen from stimulating breast cancer cells. It is effective but may have side effects such as increased risk of endometrial cancer and thromboembolic events.
Aromatase Inhibitors (AIs): These drugs, including anastrozole, letrozole, and exemestane, lower estrogen levels by inhibiting the aromatase enzyme, which converts androgens to estrogen in peripheral tissues. AIs are generally preferred in postmenopausal women due to their efficacy and safety profile compared to tamoxifen.
Selective Estrogen Receptor Downregulators (SERDs): Fulvestrant is a SERD that degrades estrogen receptors and is used in cases where resistance to other endocrine therapies develops.
Combination Therapies
Combining endocrine therapy with other treatments enhances efficacy. Examples include:
Endocrine Therapy with CDK4/6 Inhibitors: Palbociclib, ribociclib, and abemaciclib are CDK4/6 inhibitors that, when combined with endocrine therapy, significantly improve progression-free survival in advanced HR+ breast cancer.
Endocrine Therapy with mTOR Inhibitors: Everolimus, an mTOR inhibitor, can be added to endocrine therapy for patients who have developed resistance to aromatase inhibitors.
Chemotherapy
Chemotherapy is generally reserved for patients with high-risk features, such as large tumor size, high-grade histology, or extensive lymph node involvement. Regimens often include anthracyclines and taxanes.
Are you looking for a long-lasting solution to your missing tooth?
Dental implants are the most common type of method for replacing the missing tooth. Unlike dentures or bridges, implants are surgically placed in the jawbone. In layman’s terms, a dental implant is similar to the natural root of the tooth. It offers a stable foundation for the artificial tooth giving it the look, feel, and function similar to the natural tooth.
