Presentation at the International Health Symposium on PATIENT EMPOWERMENT, ICT AND HEALTH COMMUNICATION: DIGITAL PRACTICES, CURRENT ISSUES AND FUTURE TRENDS, University of Sassari, 27th May 2014
Educational achievement is a significant indicator of children’s wellbeing and future life opportunities. It can predict growth potential and economic viability of a country. While this is an ideal situation for all children, the case may be different for orphans and vulnerable children (OVC) due to the psychosocial challenges they go through on a daily basis. It is even worse for children attending public primary schools in Kenya. This paper aims to advance a debate on the relationship between psychosocial support and educational support provided for OVC through a critical engagement on the challenges experienced and the intervention measures to be taken in Kenyan public primary schools context. The study is based on the critical review of related literature materials. Findings suggest that, although the Kenyan government has put mechanisms in place to support OVC attain basic education, numerous challenges are found to be hindering some OVC from attaining quality education. Based on the findings, the paper recommends that there is need for various interventions to address psychosocial needs of orphans and children attending primary schools.

intervento di Giulio Cesare Senatore (Presidente dell'Associazione Salute Attiva Onlus)
La partecipazione diretta dei cittadini (in stretta collaborazione con medici, ricercatori e decisori pubblici) è il miglior antidoto contro i conflitti d'interesse che attraversano il mondo della sanità e, allo stesso tempo, costituisce il modo più efficace per costruire una medicina a misura d'uomo, realmente al servizio dei pazienti.
Il coinvolgimento nelle scelte sulle problematiche relative alla salute è un diritto oltre che un dovere del cittadino e porta una visione nuova e diversa dei problemi, spesso trascurata da operatori sanitari e decisori politici.
E' necessario che cittadini e pazienti non sottovalutino la complessità e l'incertezza che caratterizzano l'attività medico-sanitaria, preparandosi adeguatamente al coinvolgimento che intendono promuovere o al quale sono chiamati.
Cosa impedisce ostacola questo processo di partecipazione?
- Il contesto sociale e culturale in cui viviamo che non favorisce l'autodeterminazione e l'assunzione di responsabilità dell'individuo in merito alla propria salute
- Scienza come sistema dogmatico di credenze, guidata da una visione esclusivamente materialistica, al servizio del potere e degli interessi economici
- Concezione materialistica della medicina che ha ridotto la malattia e la guarigione al solo aspetto meccanicistico, funzionale ad un intervento terapeutico tecnologico-brevettabile
- Conseguente disumanizzazione del rapporto medico-paziente e della "rimozione" della connessione mente-corpo nei processi di malattia/guarigione
- Medicalizzazione dell'intera esistenza: fin dal concepimento l'uomo non è altro che un futuro malato e la salute è un equilibrio instabile pronto a cedere da un momento all'altro alla malattia.
- Mancanza di trasparenza della sperimentazione clinica sui farmaci
- I conflitti d'interesse nell'ambito della salute, estesi a tal punto da influenzare tutti i livelli: aziende farmaceutiche, accademie ed enti di ricerca, mass-media, riviste medico-scientifiche, decisori pubblici, medici, associazioni di volontari e quelle dei pazienti
- Scarso coinvolgimento del cittadino/paziente nelle scelte in Sanità e basso livello di educazione sanitaria (Health Literacy)
Che cosa favorirebbe il coinvolgimento dei cittadini? La CRITICAL HEALTH LITERACY
- Pretendere di essere messi a conoscenza dell'evidenza scientifica a sostegno di qualsiasi trattamento medico venga proposto
- Porsi in maniera critica rispetto a qualsiasi proposta di diagnosi, screening, trattamento, ecc.
- Mantenere un salutare scetticismo sui temi riguardanti la salute, proposti dai mass media, dagli esperti, dalle istituzioni.
- Fare domande al medico, per avere una quadro il più possibile chiaro e completo della propria situazione clinica, sui possibili trattamenti, sui pro e i contro, sulle alternative.

Project Proposal: Awareness on HIV/AIDS in South American States
Dayana Lewandowski
Florida International University
Introduction to the Problem
Introduction to the Problem
Problem to be addressed. The first cases of AIDS in the United States were reported in New Yolk City and Los Angeles in 1981, but since then the epicenter of the country's HIV epidemic has shifted to the District of Columbia and the 16 states that make up the South, from urban centers. Today, the South is the most affected region and carries the greatest burden of HIV illnesses, deaths, and infection than any other region in the U.S, Rosenberg et al. (2015) reports.
Problem subtopic. Southern states alone account for 44 percent of all individuals infected with HIV in the U.S; surprisingly the region has approximately one-third of the overall population in the U.S. Southern states experience internal disparities due to their geographical position. The majority of people living with HIV live in urban areas just like the rest of the nation, Abara et al. (2015).
Possible Causes and Maintaining Forces
Cause. Unique socioeconomic factors in the South are the primary cause of the heavy burden of HIV. Poverty, poorer health facilities, income inequality, have been more prevalent in the Southern states than the rest of the country. These conditions are not unique to HIV and, overall, the populations in the region have long experienced poorer health outcomes. Among the health challenges are higher rates of diabetes, cancer, obesity as well as infant mortality compared to other areas, Hall et al. (2015) highlight.
Cause. Cultural factors and social barriers also contribute to worsening HIV infection in the South of the United States. Issues such as transphobia, homophobia, racism as well as a lack of openness in discussing sexuality in public are more common in the South, and they result in higher levels of stigma, limiting people's willingness to look for HIV testing, prevention, and care services. The challenges also restrict access to sexual health information which is critical to enable individuals to protect themselves from infection, according to Reif et al. (2015). Many people in South America are fearful or ignorant of HIV. Transgender women and men who have sex with men face high levels of discrimination and stigma putting them at risk of homicide and crimes. Since 2008, about 1,200 transgender individuals have been killed in South America. Furthermore, 44-70 percent of transgender women have expressed the need to relocate or were thrown out of their homes (Skarbinski et al., 2015).
Why the problem persists. The South experiences higher HIV diagnosis rates in rural and suburban areas that other regions countrywide. In this case, there are various drawbacks to HIV prevention efforts in this area, Abara et al. (2015) comments.
Why the problem persists. Compared to other regions, many Southerners living with HIV are not awar ...

Population Study: Adolescents of Age 14-24 Years
Population study typically refers to a study of a group of individuals that is taken from the general population, have similar characteristics, for example, health condition, sex or age. There are several reasons for taking such studies related to such a specific group, and this may include the risk of contracting a disease or response to a drug. Examples of such study groups include school going age adolescents, newborn babies, pregnant women between the age of 20 and 40 years, aged population, among others.
Awareness and Knowledge of HIV and Other Sexually Transmitted Diseases among Adolescents of Age 14-24 Years
HIV, as well as other sexually transmitted diseases, constitutes the largest portion of health cases affecting the youths globally. Such diseases if not taken care of may lead to more complicated cases in future such as cancer, AIDS, infertility, among other cases. Such cases occur mostly in youths due to a vulnerability to which they are exposed to. And thus, there is need to create awareness as well as health education among such school-going adolescents so as to reduce these cases (Berglund, 2001).
Criteria for Inclusion
For this kind of study group, it should include all school attending students of ages between 14 years and 24 years, should be conducted and published between 1990 and 2015, be a cross-sectional studies, the studies should focus on knowledge as well as awareness of HIV and other sexually transmitted diseases among the adolescents, and lastly the studies should have measurement of knowledge or awareness (Health protection Surveillance Centre, 2005).
Exclusion Criteria
The exclusion criteria should include case reports, non-specific risk groups (such as the drug users, homosexuals, etc.), studies that seek to evaluate intervention programs, review, expert opinions, editorials, letters, and studies that are mainly on sexual activities and or behaviors.
The study group should be chosen randomly and be done majorly by targeting the institutions of learning where there is a normal distribution of such youths. In this manner, the results obtained will likely be accurate since the equal distribution represents the reality about the population.
Risk Factors: Health risk factors includes young adolescents who are exposed to sex and possess little knowledge and awareness concerning safe sex. In targeting such population, it should be taken into account that there could be an increase in the number of infections facing adolescents of age between 14 and 18 years (World Health Organisation, 2001).
Demographics: The population understudies will include all young adolescents both girls and boys falling under the age bracket that has been considered for the study.
Socio-economics: Knowledge and awareness of sexually transmitted diseases will majorl ...

ConceptualframeworkForcible displacement of individuals due to c.docxdonnajames55
Conceptualframework
Forcible displacement of individuals due to conflict or fear of persecution in their homeland is at its highest rate since 1994 (UNHCR, 2013). An estimated 1.2 million people worldwide sought asylum during 2013 (UNHCR, 2013), with around 23,500 asylum applications in the UK (UNHCR, 2014). The trauma of events leading to a departure from the homeland, the journey in transit, trying to cope with the alien nature of the country of refuge and in some cases, detention, contributes heavily to mental health issues in individuals, both adults and children, who seek asylum as well as those who have received refugee status (Fazel and Stein, 2002). These include stress, anxiety and depression (MIND, 2009; Quinn, 2014) and in some cases, co-morbid issues of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and problematic drug use (McCormack and Walker,2005).
A further factor which contributes to poor mental health in both refugees and asylum seekers (RAS) in the UK is a lack of access to basic entitlements e.g. education, reasonable quality accommodation, and healthcare (Quinn, 2014). This is exacerbated by the often slow decision making to either grant or refuse refugee status and also dispersal, often to less ethnically diverse geographical areas and away from contacts and relationships cultivated in the diaspora (MIND, 2009). In 2013, an estimated 2,500 16 – 18 year olds, including many arriving unaccompanied, sought asylum in the UK, with the majority of applications taking place in London (Home Office, 2014). The Learning and Wellbeing Foundation (LWF) will focus on young RAS aged 16 – 18, who are a part of a wider RAS marginalised community in a high-income country i.e. the UK. The young people are based in Slough, a large, ethnically diverse town on the periphery of London, but with a lesser density of RAS support organisations. The main area of focus is the lack of access to post-16 education and the associated decreased emotional wellbeing from thissituation.
The Refugee Council (2013) contends that the asylum seeking process impacts access to post-16 learning as funding rules and types of courses available are complex and continuously changing for this population. Whilst waiting for a decision on their asylum case, some individuals are left in an uncertain state, without education and with either a risk of mental health problems or an actual morbidity of these (MIND, 2009). Since 2013, the school participation age has increased to 18, regardless of immigration status,therefore

)
education to this age is a legal requirement (Coram Legal Children’s Centre, 2012). An additional problem is a lack of understanding from some learning providers of the rules and regulations which are applicable to individuals without an immigration status as well as those with refugee status (Refugee Council, 2013). The aims of this exploratory project are, therefore, to assess the needs of these vulnerable children and young adults and to raise .

Recomendações da OMS sobre cuidados maternos e neonatais para uma experiência pós-natal positiva.
Em consonância com os ODS – Objetivos do Desenvolvimento Sustentável e a Estratégia Global para a Saúde das Mulheres, Crianças e Adolescentes, e aplicando uma abordagem baseada nos direitos humanos, os esforços de cuidados pós-natais devem expandir-se para além da cobertura e da simples sobrevivência, de modo a incluir cuidados de qualidade.
Estas diretrizes visam melhorar a qualidade dos cuidados pós-natais essenciais e de rotina prestados às mulheres e aos recém-nascidos, com o objetivo final de melhorar a saúde e o bem-estar materno e neonatal.
Uma “experiência pós-natal positiva” é um resultado importante para todas as mulheres que dão à luz e para os seus recém-nascidos, estabelecendo as bases para a melhoria da saúde e do bem-estar a curto e longo prazo. Uma experiência pós-natal positiva é definida como aquela em que as mulheres, pessoas que gestam, os recém-nascidos, os casais, os pais, os cuidadores e as famílias recebem informação consistente, garantia e apoio de profissionais de saúde motivados; e onde um sistema de saúde flexível e com recursos reconheça as necessidades das mulheres e dos bebês e respeite o seu contexto cultural.
Estas diretrizes consolidadas apresentam algumas recomendações novas e já bem fundamentadas sobre cuidados pós-natais de rotina para mulheres e neonatos que recebem cuidados no pós-parto em unidades de saúde ou na comunidade, independentemente dos recursos disponíveis.
É fornecido um conjunto abrangente de recomendações para cuidados durante o período puerperal, com ênfase nos cuidados essenciais que todas as mulheres e recém-nascidos devem receber, e com a devida atenção à qualidade dos cuidados; isto é, a entrega e a experiência do cuidado recebido. Estas diretrizes atualizam e ampliam as recomendações da OMS de 2014 sobre cuidados pós-natais da mãe e do recém-nascido e complementam as atuais diretrizes da OMS sobre a gestão de complicações pós-natais.
O estabelecimento da amamentação e o manejo das principais intercorrências é contemplada.
Recomendamos muito.
Vamos discutir essas recomendações no nosso curso de pós-graduação em Aleitamento no Instituto Ciclos.

Lung Cancer: Artificial Intelligence, Synergetics, Complex System Analysis, S...Oleg Kshivets
RESULTS: Overall life span (LS) was 2252.1±1742.5 days and cumulative 5-year survival (5YS) reached 73.2%, 10 years – 64.8%, 20 years – 42.5%. 513 LCP lived more than 5 years (LS=3124.6±1525.6 days), 148 LCP – more than 10 years (LS=5054.4±1504.1 days).199 LCP died because of LC (LS=562.7±374.5 days). 5YS of LCP after bi/lobectomies was significantly superior in comparison with LCP after pneumonectomies (78.1% vs.63.7%, P=0.00001 by log-rank test). AT significantly improved 5YS (66.3% vs. 34.8%) (P=0.00000 by log-rank test) only for LCP with N1-2. Cox modeling displayed that 5YS of LCP significantly depended on: phase transition (PT) early-invasive LC in terms of synergetics, PT N0—N12, cell ratio factors (ratio between cancer cells- CC and blood cells subpopulations), G1-3, histology, glucose, AT, blood cell circuit, prothrombin index, heparin tolerance, recalcification time (P=0.000-0.038). Neural networks, genetic algorithm selection and bootstrap simulation revealed relationships between 5YS and PT early-invasive LC (rank=1), PT N0—N12 (rank=2), thrombocytes/CC (3), erythrocytes/CC (4), eosinophils/CC (5), healthy cells/CC (6), lymphocytes/CC (7), segmented neutrophils/CC (8), stick neutrophils/CC (9), monocytes/CC (10); leucocytes/CC (11). Correct prediction of 5YS was 100% by neural networks computing (area under ROC curve=1.0; error=0.0).
CONCLUSIONS: 5YS of LCP after radical procedures significantly depended on: 1) PT early-invasive cancer; 2) PT N0--N12; 3) cell ratio factors; 4) blood cell circuit; 5) biochemical factors; 6) hemostasis system; 7) AT; 8) LC characteristics; 9) LC cell dynamics; 10) surgery type: lobectomy/pneumonectomy; 11) anthropometric data. Optimal diagnosis and treatment strategies for LC are: 1) screening and early detection of LC; 2) availability of experienced thoracic surgeons because of complexity of radical procedures; 3) aggressive en block surgery and adequate lymph node dissection for completeness; 4) precise prediction; 5) adjuvant chemoimmunoradiotherapy for LCP with unfavorable prognosis.

MPH (GC University, Faisalabad)
MBA (Virtual University of Pakistan)
Learning Objectives:
Describe the primary categories of smells and the concept of odor blindness.
Explain the structure and location of the olfactory membrane and mucosa, including the types and roles of cells involved in olfaction.
Describe the pathway and mechanisms of olfactory signal transmission from the olfactory receptors to the brain.
Illustrate the biochemical cascade triggered by odorant binding to olfactory receptors, including the role of G-proteins and second messengers in generating an action potential.
Identify different types of olfactory disorders such as anosmia, hyposmia, hyperosmia, and dysosmia, including their potential causes.
Key Topics:
Olfactory Genes:
3% of the human genome accounts for olfactory genes.
400 genes for odorant receptors.
Olfactory Membrane:
Located in the superior part of the nasal cavity.
Medially: Folds downward along the superior septum.
Laterally: Folds over the superior turbinate and upper surface of the middle turbinate.
Total surface area: 5-10 square centimeters.
Olfactory Mucosa:
Olfactory Cells: Bipolar nerve cells derived from the CNS (100 million), with 4-25 olfactory cilia per cell.
Sustentacular Cells: Produce mucus and maintain ionic and molecular environment.
Basal Cells: Replace worn-out olfactory cells with an average lifespan of 1-2 months.
Bowman’s Gland: Secretes mucus.
Stimulation of Olfactory Cells:
Odorant dissolves in mucus and attaches to receptors on olfactory cilia.
Involves a cascade effect through G-proteins and second messengers, leading to depolarization and action potential generation in the olfactory nerve.
Quality of a Good Odorant:
Small (3-20 Carbon atoms), volatile, water-soluble, and lipid-soluble.
Facilitated by odorant-binding proteins in mucus.
Membrane Potential and Action Potential:
Resting membrane potential: -55mV.
Action potential frequency in the olfactory nerve increases with odorant strength.
Adaptation Towards the Sense of Smell:
Rapid adaptation within the first second, with further slow adaptation.
Psychological adaptation greater than receptor adaptation, involving feedback inhibition from the central nervous system.
Primary Sensations of Smell:
Camphoraceous, Musky, Floral, Pepperminty, Ethereal, Pungent, Putrid.
Odor Detection Threshold:
Examples: Hydrogen sulfide (0.0005 ppm), Methyl-mercaptan (0.002 ppm).
Some toxic substances are odorless at lethal concentrations.
Characteristics of Smell:
Odor blindness for single substances due to lack of appropriate receptor protein.
Behavioral and emotional influences of smell.
Transmission of Olfactory Signals:
From olfactory cells to glomeruli in the olfactory bulb, involving lateral inhibition.
Primitive, less old, and new olfactory systems with different path

New Directions in Targeted Therapeutic Approaches for Older Adults With Mantl...i3 Health
i3 Health is pleased to make the speaker slides from this activity available for use as a non-accredited self-study or teaching resource.
This slide deck presented by Dr. Kami Maddocks, Professor-Clinical in the Division of Hematology and
Associate Division Director for Ambulatory Operations
The Ohio State University Comprehensive Cancer Center, will provide insight into new directions in targeted therapeutic approaches for older adults with mantle cell lymphoma.
STATEMENT OF NEED
Mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) is a rare, aggressive B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) accounting for 5% to 7% of all lymphomas. Its prognosis ranges from indolent disease that does not require treatment for years to very aggressive disease, which is associated with poor survival (Silkenstedt et al, 2021). Typically, MCL is diagnosed at advanced stage and in older patients who cannot tolerate intensive therapy (NCCN, 2022). Although recent advances have slightly increased remission rates, recurrence and relapse remain very common, leading to a median overall survival between 3 and 6 years (LLS, 2021). Though there are several effective options, progress is still needed towards establishing an accepted frontline approach for MCL (Castellino et al, 2022). Treatment selection and management of MCL are complicated by the heterogeneity of prognosis, advanced age and comorbidities of patients, and lack of an established standard approach for treatment, making it vital that clinicians be familiar with the latest research and advances in this area. In this activity chaired by Michael Wang, MD, Professor in the Department of Lymphoma & Myeloma at MD Anderson Cancer Center, expert faculty will discuss prognostic factors informing treatment, the promising results of recent trials in new therapeutic approaches, and the implications of treatment resistance in therapeutic selection for MCL.
Target Audience
Hematology/oncology fellows, attending faculty, and other health care professionals involved in the treatment of patients with mantle cell lymphoma (MCL).
Learning Objectives
1.) Identify clinical and biological prognostic factors that can guide treatment decision making for older adults with MCL
2.) Evaluate emerging data on targeted therapeutic approaches for treatment-naive and relapsed/refractory MCL and their applicability to older adults
3.) Assess mechanisms of resistance to targeted therapies for MCL and their implications for treatment selection
Flu Vaccine Alert in Bangalore Karnatakaaddon Scans
As flu season approaches, health officials in Bangalore, Karnataka, are urging residents to get their flu vaccinations. The seasonal flu, while common, can lead to severe health complications, particularly for vulnerable populations such as young children, the elderly, and those with underlying health conditions.
Dr. Vidisha Kumari, a leading epidemiologist in Bangalore, emphasizes the importance of getting vaccinated. "The flu vaccine is our best defense against the influenza virus. It not only protects individuals but also helps prevent the spread of the virus in our communities," he says.
This year, the flu season is expected to coincide with a potential increase in other respiratory illnesses. The Karnataka Health Department has launched an awareness campaign highlighting the significance of flu vaccinations. They have set up multiple vaccination centers across Bangalore, making it convenient for residents to receive their shots.
To encourage widespread vaccination, the government is also collaborating with local schools, workplaces, and community centers to facilitate vaccination drives. Special attention is being given to ensuring that the vaccine is accessible to all, including marginalized communities who may have limited access to healthcare.
Residents are reminded that the flu vaccine is safe and effective. Common side effects are mild and may include soreness at the injection site, mild fever, or muscle aches. These side effects are generally short-lived and far less severe than the flu itself.
Healthcare providers are also stressing the importance of continuing COVID-19 precautions. Wearing masks, practicing good hand hygiene, and maintaining social distancing are still crucial, especially in crowded places.
Protect yourself and your loved ones by getting vaccinated. Together, we can help keep Bangalore healthy and safe this flu season. For more information on vaccination centers and schedules, residents can visit the Karnataka Health Department’s official website or follow their social media pages.
Stay informed, stay safe, and get your flu shot today!
