This document discusses health risks and their impact on diseases globally and in India. It identifies the top five leading global health risks as high blood pressure, tobacco use, high blood glucose, physical inactivity, and overweight/obesity. It also examines risks related to diet, addictions like smoking and alcohol, and environment factors like air pollution. India is experiencing a shift from communicable to non-communicable diseases due to lifestyle changes, urbanization, and an aging population. Heart disease incidence is increasing in India due to multiple interconnected socioeconomic factors.
Non-communicalbe diseases and its preventionShoaib Kashem
Non communicable disease account for a large and increasing burden of disease worldwide. It is currently estimated that non communicable disease accounts for approximately 60% of global deaths and 43% of global disease burden. This is projected to increase to 73% of deaths and 60% of disease burden by 2020.

NCD, Hypertension, Diabetes, Chronic Kidney Disease, heart disease, coronary artery disease
Noncommunicable diseases (NCDs), also known as chronic diseases, are not passed from person to person.
Noncommunicable diseases (NCDs), including heart disease, stroke, cancer, diabetes and chronic lung disease, are collectively responsible for 74% of all deaths worldwide. More than three-quarters of all NCD deaths, and 86% of the 17 million people who died prematurely, or before reaching 70 years of age, occur in low- and middle-income countries.
The epidemic of NCDs poses devastating health consequences for individuals, families and communities, and threatens to overwhelm health systems. The socioeconomic costs associated with NCDs make the prevention and control of these diseases a major development imperative for the 21st century.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202
A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

Multi-sectoral Dimension of the
Determinants of Health
• Malnutrition –
– more susceptible to disease and less likely to recover
• Cooking with wood and coal –
– lung diseases
• Poor sanitation –
– more intestinal infections
• Poor life circumstances –
– commercial sex work and STIs, HIV/AIDS
• Advertising tobacco and alcohol –
– addiction and related diseases
• Rapid growth in vehicular traffic
increased pollution levels

Introduction - health risks
• Understanding health risks is key to
preventing disease and injuries.
• A particular disease or injury is often
caused by more than one risk factor Ex: BP,
smoking
• By understanding the impact of risk factors
on diseases, evidence-based choices can be
made about the most effective interventions
to improve global health.
6. 421
0011 0010 1010 1101 0001 0100 1011
Introduction - health risks
• To prevent disease and injury, it is
necessary to identify and deal with their
causes – the health risks that underlie them.
• Each risk has its own causes, and many
roots in a complex chain of events over
time, consisting of
– socioeconomic factors,
– environmental factors
– individual behavior.
9. 421
0011 0010 1010 1101 0001 0100 1011
Nature of health risks
• Modifying these background causes is more
likely to have amplifying effects, by
influencing multiple proximate causes;
– Education : awareness increase
– Physical activity : reduces all theses risks
• Hence such modifications will lead to
improvements in health conditions.

Risk transition
As country is developing, the types of diseases that affect a
population shift from primary infectious, such as diarrhoea
and pnemonia, to primary non- communicable, such as
cardiovascular disease and cancers.
This shift is caused by:
1. Improvements in medical care, which mean that
children no longer die from easily curable conditions
such as diarrhoea
2. The ageing of the population, because non -
communicable diseases affect older adults at the
highest rates
3. Public health interventions such as vaccinations and
the provision of clean water and sanitation, which
reduce the incidence of infectious diseases.
11. 421
0011 0010 1010 1101 0001 0100 1011
Traditional risks
• The risks that affecting population also shifted
over time, from those for infectious disease to
those that increase noncommunicable disease
• Low-income populations are most affected by
risks associated with poverty, such as
undernutrition, unsafe sex, unsafe water, poor
sanitation and hygiene, and indoor smoke from
solid fuels; these are the so-called “traditional
risks”.
12. 421
0011 0010 1010 1101 0001 0100 1011
Modern risks
• As life expectancies increase and the major causes
of death and disability shift to the chronic and
noncommunicable, populations are increasingly
facing modern risks due to physical inactivity;
overweight and obesity, and other diet-related
factors; and tobacco and alcohol-related risks.
• As a result, many low- and middle-income countries
now face a growing burden from the modern risks to
health, while still fighting an unfinished battle with
the traditional risks to health.
13.
14. 1. Diet related risk factors
In the present world scenario population
live in a country where overweight and
obesity kills more people than
underweight
The six risks showed in the diagram
account for 19% of global deaths
These risk factors have the greatest
effect on cardiovascular
diseases – 57% of cardiovascular deaths can be
traced back to one of these risk factors
15. 421
0011 0010 1010 1101 0001 0100 1011
• High Blood Pressure: Raised blood pressure changes
the structure of the arteries. As a result, risks of stroke,
heart disease, kidney failure and other diseases
increase, not only in people with hypertension but also
in those with average, or even below-average, blood
pressure. Diet – especially too much salt – alcohol,
lack of exercise and obesity all raise blood pressure,
and these effects accumulate with age
• High Cholesterol: Diets high in saturated fat, physical
inactivity and genetics can increase cholesterol levels.
This increases the risks of heart disease, stroke and
other vascular diseases. Globally, one third of
ischaemic heart disease is attributable to high blood
cholesterol.
16. 421
0011 0010 1010 1101 0001 0100 1011
• High Blood Glucose: Changes in diet and reductions in
physical inactivity levels increase resistance to insulin,
which, in turn, raises blood glucose. Raised blood
glucose causes all diabetes deaths, 22% of heart disease
and 16% of stroke deaths.
• Over weight and obesity: The risk of coronary heart
disease, stroke and type 2 diabetes grows steadily with
increasing body mass, as do the risks of cancers of the
breast, colon, prostate and other organs. Chronic
overweight contributes to osteoarthritis – a major cause
of disability. Globally, 44% of diabetes burden, 23% of
heart disease burden and 7–41% of certain cancer
burdens are attributable to overweight and obesity.
17. 421
0011 0010 1010 1101 0001 0100 1011
• Low fruit intake: Fruit and vegetable consumption is
one element of a healthy diet. Insufficient intake of fruit
and vegetables is estimated to cause around 14% of
gastrointestinal cancer deaths, about 11% of heart
disease deaths and about 9% of stroke deaths worldwide.
Most of the benefit of consuming fruits and vegetables
comes from reduction in cardiovascular disease, but
fruits and vegetables also prevent cancer.
• Physical inactivity: Physical activity reduces the risk of
cardiovascular disease, some cancers and type 2
diabetes. It can also improve musculoskeletal health,
control body weight and reduce symptoms of depression.
19. 2. Addictive risk factors
Smoking substantially increases the risk
of death from lung and other cancers,
heart disease, stroke, respiratory disease
and others.
Alcohol contributes to more than 60 types
of disease and injury type of deaths.

Global patterns of health risks
The five leading global risks for mortality in the
world are
1. high blood pressure,
2. tobacco use, alcohol
3. high blood glucose,
4. physical inactivity,
5. and overweight and obesity.
They are responsible for raising the risk of
chronic diseases, such as heart disease and
cancers. They affect countries across all income
groups: high, middle and low

Estimates
• Between 2008 and 2030, the global population is
projected to grow by 20%, from 6.7 billion to 8.1
billion people.
• Major shift is currently underway in the overall
disease burden in the world.
• In 2008, five out of the top ten causes for mortality
worldwide, other than injuries, were non-
communicable diseases; this will go up to seven
out of ten by the year 2030.
• By then, about 76% of the deaths in the world will
be due to non-communicable diseases (NCDs)1.

Situation in India
• India has seen a rapid transition in its disease burden
(number of cases/lakh) over the past couple of
decades.
• The load of communicable and non-communicable
diseases (NCDs) is projected to get reversed in 2020
from its distribution in 1990.
31. 421
0011 0010 1010 1101 0001 0100 1011
Indian Scenario continues….
• This is largely because, with India’s economic
growth and urbanization over the past decades, a
large section of the population has moved
towards unhealthy lifestyles with decreasing
physical activity, increasing stress levels, and
increasing intake of saturated fats and tobacco.
• The average life span has increased due to
improvements in medical care; the rapidly ageing
population, more prone to NCDs, will also fuel
the growth of NCDs over the next few decades.

Factors for increase in incidence of
heart diseases in India
• The growth of heart diseases is dependent on a
number of interlinked factors such as aging,
changing lifestyles and food habits, and other
rapidly evolving socioeconomic determinants
across developing nations.
• All these factors together create a domino
effect, resulting in increased incidence of
cardiovascular diseases.
• Socioeconomic determinants like improved
access to healthcare, higher income levels and
globalization, and urbanization drive increases
in CVD risk factors.
34. 421
0011 0010 1010 1101 0001 0100 1011
Factors for increase in incidence of
heart diseases in India /2
• Improved healthcare in India has increased the
average life expectancy from 48.8 years in 1970 to
64.1 years in 2009, resulting in a growing aging
population which faces an increased risk of heart
diseases.
• Higher income levels and globalization have induced
a nutritional shift resulting in the rise of unhealthy
food and decreased intake of fruits and vegetables.
• India’s rapid urbanization, led to a number of issues
like reduced physical activity, unhygienic and
overcrowded living conditions, growing levels of
stress, and higher exposure to pollution.
35. 421
0011 0010 1010 1101 0001 0100 1011
Factors for increase in incidence of
heart diseases in India /3
• Risk factors like age and genetic makeup can’t be
controlled. For example, the nutritional shift has
moved a number of people to unhealthy eating
habits.
• Between 1983 and 2004, while the per capita
consumption of protein went down, the amount of
fats intake increased by more than 25%, both in
urban and rural areas.
• This, coupled with reduced physical activity, gives
rise to intermediate risk factors such as hypertension
and obesity.
