Genetic disease and other inborn errorsMahimaGirase
This ppt is about the diseases and inborn errors of genes in human body.
this ppt includes; genetic epidemiology, genetic research, aim and scope for genetic disorders
Clinical genetics is one of the most rapidly advancing fields in medicine. Spectacular progress has been achieved in this century with unravelling of the entire draft sequence of the human genome. A major contribution of these advances has been in diagnosis, management and prenatal diagnosis of genetic disorders as treatment in most cases is difficult or impossible and where available beyond the means of most families. Genetic technology is advancing rapidly, bringing new, safer and more sensitive ways to diagnose genetic conditions pre- and postnatally. These advances will bring about profound changes in the way we deliver obstetric services to women and their families. Diagnosing a genetic disorder not only allows for disease-specific management options but also has implications for the affected individual's entire family. Hence, a working understanding of the underlying concepts of genetic disease is important for all practicing clinicians. Although it is impossible to know all aspects of clinical and molecular genetics, basic knowledge of certain topics is a must for all practicing obstetrician/gynecologists.
In this webinar, Fight CRC Medical Advisory Board member, Heather Hampel, MS, LGC, will discuss the major sub-types of hereditary colon cancer, the types of genetic tests that by be useful for you and your family, and what to do with your test results.

General overview of patterns of transmission of single gene traitsPaul Adepoju
I delivered this presentation to fellow postgraduate students. It's on the various traits, normal and pathological, that are transmitted by single genes.
Early-onset Alzheimer's disease occurs in people age 30 to 60.
Rare, representing less than 5 percent of all people who have Alzheimer's Inherited type known as familial Alzheimer's disease (FAD). It caused by mutations in at least 3 genes ( these Mutations increase the production of a Aβ42) :Most cases of Alzheimer's are the late-onset form, which develops after age 60.
The causes include a combination of genetic, environmental, and lifestyle factors .
the increase risk is related to the apolipoprotein E (APOE) found gene on chromosome 19.
APOE contains the instructions for making a protein that helps carry cholesterol and other types of fat in the bloodstream. APOE comes in different forms, or alleles. Three forms—APOE ε2, APOE ε3, and APOE ε4—occur most frequently.
APOE ε2 is relatively rare and may provide some protection against the disease.
If Alzheimer's disease occurs in a person with this allele, it develops later in life than it would in someone with the APOE ε4 gene.
Karen Fasciano, PSY.D., director of the Young Adult Program at Dana-Farber Cancer Institute, discusses the facts around young adults who are diagnosed with lymphoma, how the disease affects their life, and the resources available to young adults who are facing cancer.

Human health has many aspects, we need to feed the diet which provides better nutrition and gives good health, an absence of disease and good behaviour. There are many health-related problems and conditions are responsible for the weak health and sometimes death causing illness, in which cancer is one most common health risk in human healthcare. Cancer is the state in which cell division is uncontrolled which damage the cells and in the last stage, if incurable caused death. There are many reasons why cell got infected due to cancerous infections, in which food habits and quality of foodstuffs are also increased the risk of cancer, like mycotoxins contamination in the food. MSG additives, taste enhancer, food colouring etc. done by the chemical processing which produces toxins inside the during the oxidation process of food. Cancer is causes of death rate higher than other health risks all over the world. The number of cancer cases is likely to rise up to 24 million by 2035. Several studies were performed in the last years in order to explore and analyze associations between diet and risk of cancer. The risk of cancer is depending on the degree of exposure to contaminated food, availability of nutrients in the body, dietary pattern and lifestyle as well as food behaviour. Research from a number of sources provides information that some vegetables, fruits, and whole grains, dietary fibre, certain micronutrients, few fatty acids and physical activity protect against cancers. Whereas poor dietary intake, imbalanced nutrition, less physical activity trances fatty acids, food processing and cooking method may increase risks.

OVERWEIGHT AND OBESITY prevalence has increased substantially over the past decades, affecting 2.1 billion people worldwide and causing 3.4 million deaths globally.1 Currently, 42 million children are overweight or obese—the result of a staggering 47.1 percent rise in prevalence between 1980 and 2013.2 No longer exclusive to affluent societies, obesity has reached alarmingly high levels in many low- and middle-income countries (LMICs).3 In fact, the number of individuals who are overweight or obese (1.9 billion) has now surpassed the 794 million people who do not get enough calories.4 Nearly half of all overweight children under 5 years of age now live in Asia, and a further 25 percent are found in Africa.
Global health is the health of populations in the global context;
It has been defined as "the area of study, research and practice that places a priority on improving health and achieving equity in health for all people worldwide".Health is a state of physical, mental, and social well-being in which disease and infirmity are absent. Global health practices can respond to some of the major health responsibilities such as non-communicable diseases (heart disease, diabetes, cancer, and chronic respiratory diseases) or injuries that occur in varying degrees in many countries, no matter how advanced.
The guidelines set out the principles and practices that government can look at when making laws and regulating food programs. Inequality affects the health of the world.
The future of global health is at risk and needs urgent strategies. Also, technology is contributing at a vast pace to overcome the various health challenges all over the world.
For prevention of non-communicable diseases(NCD):
Ban all forms of tobacco advertising, promotion, and sponsorship.
Restrictions on the availability of retailed alcohol.
Replacement of trans fats with polyunsaturated fats.
Scale-up early detection and coverage starting with very cost-effective, high-impact interventions.

Antibiotic Stewardship by Anushri Srivastava.pptxAnushriSrivastav
Stewardship is the act of taking good care of something.
Antimicrobial stewardship is a coordinated program that promotes the appropriate use of antimicrobials (including antibiotics), improves patient outcomes, reduces microbial resistance, and decreases the spread of infections caused by multidrug-resistant organisms.
WHO launched the Global Antimicrobial Resistance and Use Surveillance System (GLASS) in 2015 to fill knowledge gaps and inform strategies at all levels.
ACCORDING TO apic.org,
Antimicrobial stewardship is a coordinated program that promotes the appropriate use of antimicrobials (including antibiotics), improves patient outcomes, reduces microbial resistance, and decreases the spread of infections caused by multidrug-resistant organisms.
ACCORDING TO pewtrusts.org,
Antibiotic stewardship refers to efforts in doctors’ offices, hospitals, long term care facilities, and other health care settings to ensure that antibiotics are used only when necessary and appropriate
According to WHO,
Antimicrobial stewardship is a systematic approach to educate and support health care professionals to follow evidence-based guidelines for prescribing and administering antimicrobials
In 1996, John McGowan and Dale Gerding first applied the term antimicrobial stewardship, where they suggested a causal association between antimicrobial agent use and resistance. They also focused on the urgency of large-scale controlled trials of antimicrobial-use regulation employing sophisticated epidemiologic methods, molecular typing, and precise resistance mechanism analysis.
Antimicrobial Stewardship(AMS) refers to the optimal selection, dosing, and duration of antimicrobial treatment resulting in the best clinical outcome with minimal side effects to the patients and minimal impact on subsequent resistance.
According to the 2019 report, in the US, more than 2.8 million antibiotic-resistant infections occur each year, and more than 35000 people die. In addition to this, it also mentioned that 223,900 cases of Clostridoides difficile occurred in 2017, of which 12800 people died. The report did not include viruses or parasites

Defecation
Normal defecation begins with movement in the left colon, moving stool toward the anus. When stool reaches the rectum, the distention causes relaxation of the internal sphincter and an awareness of the need to defecate. At the time of defecation, the external sphincter relaxes, and abdominal muscles contract, increasing intrarectal pressure and forcing the stool out
The Valsalva maneuver exerts pressure to expel faeces through a voluntary contraction of the abdominal muscles while maintaining forced expiration against a closed airway. Patients with cardiovascular disease, glaucoma, increased intracranial pressure, or a new surgical wound are at greater risk for cardiac dysrhythmias and elevated blood pressure with the Valsalva maneuver and need to avoid straining to pass the stool.
Normal defecation is painless, resulting in passage of soft, formed stool
CONSTIPATION
Constipation is a symptom, not a disease. Improper diet, reduced fluid intake, lack of exercise, and certain medications can cause constipation. For example, patients receiving opiates for pain after surgery often require a stool softener or laxative to prevent constipation. The signs of constipation include infrequent bowel movements (less than every 3 days), difficulty passing stools, excessive straining, inability to defecate at will, and hard feaces
IMPACTION
Fecal impaction results from unrelieved constipation. It is a collection of hardened feces wedged in the rectum that a person cannot expel. In cases of severe impaction the mass extends up into the sigmoid colon.
DIARRHEA
Diarrhea is an increase in the number of stools and the passage of liquid, unformed feces. It is associated with disorders affecting digestion, absorption, and secretion in the GI tract. Intestinal contents pass through the small and large intestine too quickly to allow for the usual absorption of fluid and nutrients. Irritation within the colon results in increased mucus secretion. As a result, feces become watery, and the patient is unable to control the urge to defecate. Normally an anal bag is safe and effective in long-term treatment of patients with fecal incontinence at home, in hospice, or in the hospital. Fecal incontinence is expensive and a potentially dangerous condition in terms of contamination and risk of skin ulceration
HEMORRHOIDS
Hemorrhoids are dilated, engorged veins in the lining of the rectum. They are either external or internal.
FLATULENCE
As gas accumulates in the lumen of the intestines, the bowel wall stretches and distends (flatulence). It is a common cause of abdominal fullness, pain, and cramping. Normally intestinal gas escapes through the mouth (belching) or the anus (passing of flatus)
FECAL INCONTINENCE
Fecal incontinence is the inability to control passage of feces and gas from the anus. Incontinence harms a patient’s body image

2. Basics of Health Inequality
Health equity relates to the fairness in distribution of health resources and
outcomes.
“Differences in health status or in the distribution of health determinants
between different population groups’’ – WHO.
Absolute and relative health inequalities;
One of the most significant efforts to counter health inequalities was the
‘Health for All’ (HFA) programme of the WHO.
Improving health inequalities by addressing social determinants:
1. improve daily living conditions:
Promote equity from conception Child development;
Create healthy places for people;
Social protection throughout the full life cycle.
Ensure Universal healthcare
3. Health Inequality
2. Tackle inequality in the distribution of resources and power:
Health equity in policies and programmes;
Fair financing;
Market regulation;
Gender equity.
3. Understand and measure the extent of health inequity and take action
The social determinants of health: monitoring, research, and training;
National health insurance and universal coverage:
indicate the two essential components: 1) universal access to services at health
facilities. 2) elimination of financial barriers to care.
right to health and the right to social security,

5. water and sanitation
Safe drinking water and sanitary waste disposal are among the most fundamental
of public health interventions.
748 million people lack improved access to water supplies; hundreds of millions
more rely on water that is unsafe for drinking;
2.5 billion people—40 per cent of the world’s population—lack access to
improved sanitation, more than 1 billion of those still practice open defecation.
Sanitation

7. Effectiveness of water and sanitation in preventing disease
The review covers 94 studies, though only 5 were randomized controlled trials.
Use of treated water was associated with lower odds of infection from any soil
transmitted helminth.
8. Economic Benefits of safe water, sanitation
Global return per dollar invested was $5.50 for sanitation, $2.0 for water supply,
and $4.30 for combined sanitation and water supply.
Saves medical costs over -US$ 35 billion per year for sanitation and US$ 17.5
billion for drinking-water.
Other Benefits for safe water and sanitation:
