The document provides a detailed history of tobacco legislation in Maine from 1897 to 1995, with the laws becoming increasingly restrictive over time to reduce the harms of tobacco use and exposure to secondhand smoke.History and Overview of Tobacco Policy Initiatives in Maine, 1897-Present
History and Overview of Tobacco Policy Initiatives in Maine, 1897-PresentMaine Public Health Association Tobacco Policy Subcommittee and Friends of the FHM
This document summarizes Maine's history of tobacco policy initiatives and laws from 1897 to 2011. It discusses the progression of laws that have been passed to reduce exposure to secondhand smoke, restrict youth access to tobacco, increase tobacco taxes, and establish tobacco prevention programs.

Youth smoking prevalence in Maine dropped significantly from 1993 to 2009, falling from 39% to 14%. Several increases in Maine's cigarette tax rates during this period, including a $1 increase in 2002, corresponded with drops in teen smoking of 12.5% to 16%. By 2009, Maine saw a 58% reduction in youth smoking over the 16-year period studied.A New Wave of Tobacco Products, April 2011 Update

Higher cigarette pack prices in Maine between 1993-2009 were associated with lower youth smoking rates. As the average retail price of a pack of cigarettes increased from $1.85 in 1993 to $5.61 in 2009, the percentage of high school students who reported smoking decreased from 38% to 14% over the same period.Business case for fhm fact sheet 03 25 11

The high cost of health care and health insurance places a large burden on Maine businesses. The average cost of a family health insurance policy was $8,700 in 2008 but is projected to exceed $15,000 by 2012, a trajectory that is unsustainable for many businesses. Maine's economic recovery depends on reducing health care costs, which the Fund for a Healthy Maine aims to do. Every dollar invested in prevention saves $7.50 in health costs within five years. Without the Fund, Maine's public health investment would fall significantly compared to other states. Dismantling the Fund would send the wrong message and take Maine in an unwise direction for businesses.The Fund for a Healthy Maine Supports the Maine Economy, 03 2011
The Fund for a Healthy Maine Supports the Maine Economy, 03 2011Maine Public Health Association Tobacco Policy Subcommittee and Friends of the FHM
The document discusses Maine's Fund for a Healthy Maine (FHM), which was created using money from the tobacco settlement to invest in preventing disease and promoting health. It argues that the FHM helps lower healthcare costs for businesses and families by keeping people healthy. However, the Governor's budget proposes dismantling the FHM and using the funds to fill budget gaps instead of for prevention as originally intended. Supporters believe the FHM should be protected to continue creating opportunities for better health and lower costs through prevention.FHM Allocations and MSA Payments, Updated July 2011

The document shows revenue and program allocations for Maine's Fund for a Healthy Maine from fiscal years 2001 to 2013. It displays the beginning balance for the fund, the program cuts of $9 million in the first year, and flat funding for four years after money was diverted from the fund to the general fund. Revenue came from annual Master Settlement Agreement payments while allocations funded public health programs.FHM History and Vision, Updated July 2011
FHM History and Vision, Updated July 2011Maine Public Health Association Tobacco Policy Subcommittee and Friends of the FHM
The Fund for a Healthy Maine (FHM) was created by the Maine Legislature in 1999 to distribute tobacco settlement funds to support eight categories of health programs. The FHM receives annual payments from the tobacco settlement and allocates funds to supplement existing health programs, not replace taxpayer funding. However, in the past the Maine Legislature has diverted over $126 million from the FHM to the state's general fund. Supporters of the FHM want to ensure funds continue to be used for their intended health-related purposes and view the FHM as a unique opportunity to invest in disease prevention and health promotion programs that save costs.A Great Vision (FHM, printable copy), Updated July 2011

The document outlines the intended and actual allocations of funds from Maine's Fund for a Healthy Maine since its inception. The vision was to allocate 90% of funds to substance abuse prevention and treatment programs and 10% to a trust fund. However, the reality has seen 17.1% of funds diverted to the state's general fund, rather than the intended health programs, with $126.8 million diverted through 2013. Key health programs like child care, oral health, and home visitation have not received their intended levels of funding.The Benefits of a Comprehensive Tobacco Treatment Benefit: The MassHealth Exa...

The document discusses the benefits of comprehensive tobacco treatment coverage through Medicaid/MassHealth programs. It provides the example of Massachusetts, which in 2006 began covering tobacco cessation treatment including counseling and FDA-approved medications. Between 2006-2008, over 70,000 unique MassHealth members used the new benefit, and the smoking rate decreased 26% from 38.3% to 28.3%. The benefit was cost-effective, with $1.11 returned for every $1 spent due to reduced hospitalizations for conditions like heart attacks.Fund for a Healthy Maine Program Successes, Updated 2/11

The Fund for a Healthy Maine has supported several public health initiatives in Maine with successes in multiple areas:
1) Tobacco use among youth has declined significantly, with high school smoking down 64% and middle school smoking down 73% between 1997 and 2007. The Tobacco HelpLine and Healthy Maine Partnerships have also helped reduce tobacco use.
2) Underage alcohol use has declined steadily over the past decade in Maine. A higher education partnership increased participating colleges and universities from 4 to 18 around preventing high risk drinking.
3) School based health centers provided over 13,000 patient encounters in 2009-2010 and helped over a third of students who smoked to quit or reduce smoking. Asthma management among users alsoMaine Adult Tobacco Use by Education Level, 2009

biomechanics of running. Dr.dhwani.pptx
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.
PGx Analysis in VarSeq: A User’s Perspective
Since our release of the PGx capabilities in VarSeq, we’ve had a few months to gather some insights from various use cases. Some users approach PGx workflows by means of array genotyping or what seems to be a growing trend of adding the star allele calling to the existing NGS pipeline for whole genome data. Luckily, both approaches are supported with the VarSeq software platform. The genotyping method being used will also dictate what the scope of the tertiary analysis will be. For example, are your PGx reports a standalone pipeline or would your lab’s goal be to handle a dual-purpose workflow and report on PGx + Diagnostic findings.
The purpose of this webcast is to:
Discuss and demonstrate the approaches with array and NGS genotyping methods for star allele calling to prep for downstream analysis.
Following genotyping, explore alternative tertiary workflow concepts in VarSeq to handle PGx reporting.
Moreover, we will include insights users will need to consider when validating their PGx workflow for all possible star alleles and options you have for automating your PGx analysis for large number of samples. Please join us for a session dedicated to the application of star allele genotyping and subsequent PGx workflows in our VarSeq software.
