Sickness Funds and the Pharmaceutical Industry: a New Relationship?Beapp_Bcpm
On Friday 3rd March, Dr Jan Van Emelen, Innovation Director at Neutral Mutualities presented on “Mutualities and pharmaceutical industry: a new relationship?”. Access to new, often very expensive medications is a hot topic and our speaker discussed the role of the mutualities in this process, using new models for disease management. He shared ideas on our potential interaction with this process as pharmaceutical physicians.
This document outlines a model for citizens to become co-producers of their own health, especially regarding chronic diseases and prevention, enabled by information and communication technologies. It proposes a Personal Guidance System (PGS) that provides citizens with personalized data, information, knowledge, and decision support to navigate their health. The PGS would integrate inputs from various health providers and services. It conceptualizes an "eco-system" with three layers: a model library maintained by patient organizations, platforms for ICT services built by enterprises, and specified standards. The goal is evidence-based, context-aware decisions around modifiable risk factors and their connections to conditions to support long-term health navigation by informed citizens.
This document provides an overview of the 2012 mHealth report from Ruder Finn London. It contains the following key points:
1. mHealth, or mobile health, uses smartphones, tablets, and other mobile devices to help manage healthcare and enable more independent living as populations age and chronic diseases rise.
2. A survey found that UK smartphone and tablet users are interested in health apps but prefer speaking to doctors in person. Top reasons for not using health apps included having no need and finding them unhelpful.
3. The mobile health app market is growing rapidly and expected to reach $1.3 billion in 2012. However, more investment is still needed to develop useful apps that meet consumer and healthcare professional

Using technology-enabled social prescriptions to disrupt healthcareDr Sven Jungmann
As chronic diseases are increasingly straining healthcare systems, social factors are gaining importance. Since the birth of social medicine (19th century), we saw many failed attempts to beat the dominance of the biomedical model. Social prescriptions have come, raising hopes that non-biomedical solutions will improve outcomes and optimise resource use. Social Prescriptions connect citizens to support to address social determinants of health and encourage self-care for physical and mental health. Social prescriptions can make us healthier cheaper and with fewer side effects than most drugs. Social prescriptions can become a disruptive force as they can be personalised, improve lifestyle-related diseases, and support non-biomedical issues affected by social determinants of health.
Future healthcare delivery will need to incorporate mHealth solutions due to changing demographic and economic factors. As populations age and healthcare costs rise, a shift towards preventative care and individual responsibility over one's health is needed. Mobile technologies can help enable this shift by providing remote patient monitoring, data collection for advanced diagnosis, and on-demand access to health information and services. Widespread adoption of mHealth still faces challenges around regulatory approval and data security that will require cooperation across the healthcare industry.

This research article summarizes a study that investigated the effects of homeopathically prepared thyroxin solutions on the metamorphosis of highland frogs from the two-legged stage. Researchers treated frogs with thyroxin that was diluted through steps of 1:50,000 to concentrations between 10-11 and 10-21 or with an analogously prepared water control. They found that frogs treated with the thyroxin solutions metamorphosed more slowly than the control frogs, taking 2-13.5% longer on average to reach the four-legged stage. This inverse effect compared to untreated thyroxin supported previous findings and the idea in homeopathy that highly diluted substances can produce effects opposite to the original substance.
This study examined the effects of craniosacral therapy (CST) on heart rate variability (HRV) in 31 patients with subjective discomforts. HRV was measured before and after a 30-minute control rest period and a 30-minute CST session on consecutive days using a mobile device. Standard deviation of heart rate intervals (SDNN) and total power (TP), indicators of autonomic nervous system activity, increased significantly after CST but not the control rest. Heart rate also decreased significantly after CST compared to rest. However, interactions between treatment and HRV changes were not fully statistically significant. The study provides preliminary evidence that CST may positively influence autonomic nervous system regulation.

The passage discusses the importance of summarization in an age of information overload. It notes that with the massive amounts of data available online, being able to quickly understand the key points of lengthy documents, articles, or reports is crucial. The ability to produce clear, concise summaries helps people save time by getting the gist without having to read the full source text.
This study examined the effects of homeopathically prepared thyroxin solutions on metamorphosis in highland frogs. Homeopathic dilutions of thyroxin (10-11 to 10-21) were administered to tadpoles every 8 hours from the two-legged stage. The number of frogs that reached the four-legged stage was counted at regular intervals and compared to a control group given similarly prepared water. Frogs exposed to the thyroxin dilutions metamorphosed more slowly than controls, with 2-13.5% fewer reaching the four-legged stage at measurement points. This suggests that homeopathically prepared thyroxin has an opposite, slowing effect on metamorphosis compared to molecular thy

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.
The biomechanics of running involves the study of the mechanical principles underlying running movements. It includes the analysis of the running gait cycle, which consists of the stance phase (foot contact to push-off) and the swing phase (foot lift-off to next contact). Key aspects include kinematics (joint angles and movements, stride length and frequency) and kinetics (forces involved in running, including ground reaction and muscle forces). Understanding these factors helps in improving running performance, optimizing technique, and preventing injuries.

GASTROINTESTINAL INFECTIONS AND GASTRITIS
Osvaldo Bernardo Muchanga
Gastrointestinal Infections
GASTROINTESTINAL INFECTIONS result from the ingestion of pathogens that cause infections at the level of this tract, generally being transmitted by food, water and hands contaminated by microorganisms such as E. coli, Salmonella, Shigella, Vibrio cholerae, Campylobacter, Staphylococcus, Rotavirus among others that are generally contained in feces, thus configuring a FECAL-ORAL type of transmission.
Among the factors that lead to the occurrence of gastrointestinal infections are the hygienic and sanitary deficiencies that characterize our markets and other places where raw or cooked food is sold, poor environmental sanitation in communities, deficiencies in water treatment (or in the process of its plumbing), risky hygienic-sanitary habits (not washing hands after major and/or minor needs), among others.
These are generally consequences (signs and symptoms) resulting from gastrointestinal infections: diarrhea, vomiting, fever and malaise, among others.
The treatment consists of replacing lost liquids and electrolytes (drinking drinking water and other recommended liquids, including consumption of juicy fruits such as papayas, apples, pears, among others that contain water in their composition).
To prevent this, it is necessary to promote health education, improve the hygienic-sanitary conditions of markets and communities in general as a way of promoting, preserving and prolonging PUBLIC HEALTH.
Gastritis and Gastric Health
Gastric Health is one of the most relevant concerns in human health, with gastrointestinal infections being among the main illnesses that affect humans.
Among gastric problems, we have GASTRITIS AND GASTRIC ULCERS as the main public health problems. Gastritis and gastric ulcers normally result from inflammation and corrosion of the walls of the stomach (gastric mucosa) and are generally associated (caused) by the bacterium Helicobacter pylor, which, according to the literature, this bacterium settles on these walls (of the stomach) and starts to release urease that ends up altering the normal pH of the stomach (acid), which leads to inflammation and corrosion of the mucous membranes and consequent gastritis or ulcers, respectively.
In addition to bacterial infections, gastritis and gastric ulcers are associated with several factors, with emphasis on prolonged fasting, chemical substances including drugs, alcohol, foods with strong seasonings including chilli, which ends up causing inflammation of the stomach walls and/or corrosion. of the same, resulting in the appearance of wounds and consequent gastritis or ulcers, respectively.
Among patients with gastritis and/or ulcers, one of the dilemmas is associated with the foods to consume in order to minimize the sensation of pain and discomfort.
