Growth And Development Of Infants
During the first year of life, infants experience significant physical, cognitive, linguistic, and emotional growth and development. Caregivers monitor an infant's physical growth through regular checkups and maintaining a growth chart. Infants develop motor skills and learn to grasp objects and sit up on their own. Establishing routines for sleeping, eating, and playtime is important for development. Infants begin to understand language and may say their first words by the end of the year. Their brains grow rapidly, so interaction and reading are encouraged over excessive TV time. Caregivers should ensure infant safety by maintaining a secure environment, using approved car seats correctly, and preventing hazards like choking, burns, and falls.

One way the environment might negatively affect my health is through second-hand smoke from the air. Secondhand smoke comes from “burning tobacco products such as cigarettes, cigars, or pipes” (CDC, 2018). Secondhand smoke increases the risk for heart disease, lung cancer, and stroke (CDC, 2018). One step I can take to protect my health is to reduce the chance of exposure. Avoiding areas where people are allowed to smoke cigarettes will significantly limit my exposure to tobacco smoke.
Another way the environment can negatively affect my health is through hazards at my workplace. I work in a hospital which deals with infections on a daily basis. In order to reduce my risk for acquiring an infection at a hospital, I must be diligent with sanitation and sterilization. Hand washing is the best way to reduce transmission of infection. Maintaining precautions with patients and sterilizing tools between use is also very important.
Eating undercooked food is another way my health can be negatively affected. Many foods, especially meats, need to be heated to a certain temperature, usually 165 degrees Fahrenheit, before they are deemed safe to eat. Failure to do so may result in acquiring some microorganism that has been cultured on the food; this microorganism could then enter the body and cause damage to the immune system and other organs (CDC, 2019).

There have always been some obvious hazards in our daily lives that we take certain measures to avoid, but after reading this week’s resources, I was enlightened on some different hazardous exposures that I was not initially aware of. Working in the medical field, we pride ourselves on being sterile and clean to prevent the spreading of germs and diseases. This also comes along with daily exposure to highly chemical induced cleaning supplies. In my medical clinic we specifically use Sani-Cloth germicidal disposable wipes to wipe down all of our equipment daily. This product specifically contains dimethyl ethylbenzyl ammonium chlorides and dimethyl benzyl ammonium chlorides, both which have the precaution of being hazardous to humans and animals. The biggest protective measure I use with this product is donning personal protective equipment, or basically wearing gloves before handling the wipes to limit direct contact exposure and dermal absorption.
Water quality is another important factor in our daily health because we all need water to survive. I feel that it is always difficult to determine the quality of water you are getting from different sources and what they claim to be clean or purified. Public water fountains are usually connected to public water systems that have the potential to contain additional fluoride pollution or run-off from chemicals and pesticides used near water sources. The best way I have found to protect myself from water pollution is to carry my own water with me when going ou.
Tips For Limiting Your Childs Exposure to Germs.pptx
Protecting your kids from being exposed to germs isn’t always possible, let alone easy, and let’s face it, germs are literally everywhere. Microscopically small and able to disperse freely and easily, they are often found in larger numbers on items and surfaces that are touched frequently, such as door knobs and light switches. For children at school, for example, water fountains, pens, desks, and computer keyboards, to name but a few, are all breeding grounds for germs.
Corona virus interview
This document summarizes an interview with children about the coronavirus pandemic. It asks the children questions about how long they have been home from school, if they miss their friends and teachers, how they spend their time at home, if they want to return to school, who they want to hug first and where they want to go first when going out again, how to get rid of the coronavirus, what animal the coronavirus would be, how the coronavirus started, what they think they need to wear to be protected, what makes them happy and angry, what they like to wear at home, and what they want to be when they grow up. The children's responses provide insight into their perspectives and understanding of the current situation.

Protect baby from Pneumococcal diseases-Vaccination
The document provides information about pneumococcal disease and vaccination recommendations for protecting children. It discusses the various serious infections pneumococcal bacteria can cause, how children can catch the disease, and recommends vaccinating children on time and speaking to their doctor. The pneumococcal vaccine protects against common types of the bacteria but does not cover all types, so the conjugate vaccine providing the broadest coverage is suggested. Immunization is promoted by organizations like UNICEF and WHO as an effective way to reduce child mortality.
Helping children cope With Violence
The document discusses the negative effects that exposure to violence can have on child development, as well as ways to prevent, assess, and treat these effects. Children exposed to violence may have difficulties with aggression, withdrawal, emotional regulation, and academic performance. Prevention strategies include limiting media violence, teaching coping skills, and implementing anti-bullying programs. Interventions range from parenting support and mental health services to evidence-based treatments matched to the child's needs and development. Treatment aims to establish safety, build skills, and support the child's healthy development.

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.

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.

Health (infant and toddler years) 1
- 1. The Infant years (Birth to 12 Months Old) Identify specific health and safety considerations that you will have to consider during the infant years. How will you address these issues? Example: Hand washing Proper hand washing is essential to keeping infants healthy as their immune system is low. “Hand washing is the most important health practice that parents /educators and children must implement to reduce the spread of infections.” (Pimento, Page 129) This was seen when my baby had many colds and ear infections within the first year. Although it is common for infants to catch colds and infections, I need to use proper hand washing. Proper diaper changing: Proper diaper changing is one of the most important requirements throughout the infant years. “It also allows for one on one interaction with child” also “Germs can be spread through stool and other bodily fluids keep cleanliness and safety in mind at all times) (Healthy Development of the whole child handout notes) Baby proof the house: Having wide enough spaces allows Vida to move around and explore. The way the house or apartment is set up has a huge influence on the safety of Vida. (Early ages and stages: A brief overview Birth to 12 years old) Maintain a clean house: Since Vida Mia will start to crawl and play on the floor it is important that I maintain a clean environment for her. (Healthy development of the whole child hand out notes) Build her immune system: It’s important for Vida Mia to start to have a good immune system for when she starts daycare. (Healthy Development of the Whole Child handout notes)
- 2. The Toddler Years (2 Years Old) Have there been any environmental events that you think might have influenced your child’s development? Does this create any health or safety concerns for your toddler? For the past two years, Vida Mia and I are very fortunate because we haven’t had many huge environmental events that would influence her development. With that being said, we have had two major events that have shaken her up and made her a little more aware. 1) A dog jumped at a fence and scared Vida now every time that we go out she hesitates to leave the house and my husband and I have to reassure her that the dog isn’t there. To help her get over her fear we’ve been talking to her about what happened and showing her pictures of different types of dogs. We try reassuring her that everything is okay and that she doesn’t need to be afraid. This event has had such a huge impact on her “safety” because she feels like every dog that comes along her way is going to try and hurt her. 2) Vida Mia fell off her tricycle and scraped her knee a few days ago and now she is very reluctant to go back on it. I don’t push her to go on but I do try and talk to her about the accident and let her know that when she feels ready to go back on I’ll be there to help her.
