Maternal mortality is a serious issue, with 600,000 pregnant women dying each year - one every minute. 98% of deaths occur in developing countries, with 60% in Asia and 30% in Africa. The main causes are hemorrhaging during or after childbirth and giving birth without a skilled birth attendant. Only 34% of deliveries occur with a skilled birth attendant in poor countries, with even lower rates in places like Ethiopia, Chad, and Niger. Delays in recognizing and treating complications and delays in transfers to proper medical care often result from a lack of financial resources and poor access to healthcare.

Maternal Health in the Developing World
Maternal health in developing countries is a very neglected subject. Each year, 500,000 women die from pregnancy and childbirth complications, with 98% of these deaths occurring in developing nations. Some of the main issues discussed in the document include maternal mortality being caused by hemorrhage, sepsis, infection, and ruptured uterus. Problems like malnutrition in children and mothers can also lead to issues like anemia. The document advocates for increasing access to skilled healthcare workers and emergency obstetric care, as promoted by organizations like UNICEF, to help address maternal health problems in developing countries.
Maternal health in developing countries presentation
Maternal mortality is a significant issue in developing countries. Women die during childbirth at high rates, accounting for 99% of maternal deaths worldwide. Factors that contribute to maternal mortality include cultural attitudes, lack of access to health services, insufficient funding for maternal health programs, and social barriers. Women in developing nations often do not seek medical care during pregnancy and childbirth due to issues like low education levels, economic limitations, and cultural practices such as female circumcision that can increase birthing complications. Unsafe abortions also lead to many maternal deaths each year in developing areas where abortion is restricted. Addressing this public health crisis will require giving women more autonomy over their reproductive decisions and improving access to quality maternal healthcare.

Women in developing nations often do not seek medical care during pregnancy and childbirth due to issues like low education levels, economic limitations, and cultural practices such as female circumcision that can increase birthing complications. Around 100,000 women undergo female circumcision annually, and unsafe abortions also lead to 60,000 to 1,000,000 deaths each year. Addressing this issue raises important ethical questions about giving women more autonomy over
12 women (and 1 man) working toward gender equality
This document highlights 12 women and one man who have inspired change for women's rights around the world through their advocacy and grassroots campaigns. It describes their efforts advocating for issues such as ending female genital mutilation, promoting women's health and reproductive rights, empowering women, and improving maternal healthcare in communities.
Closing The Gender Health Gap by Dr. Ngozi Okonjo Iweala
Dr. Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala discusses the gender health gap and how it disproportionately impacts women in developing countries. She describes her own frightening experience with a pregnancy complication and emphasizes how many maternal and neonatal deaths could be prevented with basic interventions like antenatal care and skilled birth attendants. Okonjo-Iweala also highlights issues like cervical cancer, where the majority of deaths occur in poor nations due to lack of screening and treatment. She advocates for efforts to increase access to vaccines for diseases like HPV and potentially Zika virus to help reduce health burdens on women globally.
IntegrAid A World In Need | Statistics
The document summarizes various statistics related to poverty, access to water and sanitation, disease, child labor, malnutrition, and illiteracy around the world. Nearly half of the world's population lives on less than $2 per day, while over 1 billion people live in extreme poverty, surviving on less than $1 daily. Additionally, over 800 million people lack access to safe drinking water and proper sanitation facilities. Diseases caused by unsafe water and lack of hygiene claim millions of lives each year. Many other statistics outline the widespread issues of child labor, malnutrition, and lack of education faced globally.
World Population day
The document discusses vaccination rates around the world on World Population Day. It provides statistics showing that 24.2% of the world's population has received at least one COVID-19 vaccine dose, with 3.22 billion doses administered globally so far. However, only 1% of people in low-income countries have received a dose. The document also presents vaccination data for several specific countries like Singapore, India, Indonesia, South Korea, China, and the UAE.

The document discusses the importance of gender equity in agricultural research and development. It makes four key points:
1) Women play a vital role in agriculture but lack equal access to resources like land, education, inputs and technology, limiting productivity. Reducing gender inequality could increase yields by 20%.
2) Involving women is important for sustainability as they maintain biodiversity and climate change strategies.
3) It improves food security and nutrition as women control food distribution and child nutrition.
4) Empowering women through equitable interventions can significantly boost incomes and reduce poverty.
The document advocates for mainstreaming gender considerations in agricultural R&D through representation of women researchers and relevance to women farmers.
Econ 325 pp
Family planning is important for economic development and reducing poverty. It allows individuals and couples to choose the timing and size of their families. The use of contraceptives has increased globally but population growth remains high in Africa and Asia. Rapid population growth could deplete resources and reduce economic productivity. Investing in family planning to meet the needs of those who want to prevent pregnancies would reduce costs of unplanned births, infant deaths, and pregnancy-related deaths while increasing income and prosperity at both the individual and country level, as shown in studies in Bangladesh.

Malaria Profile: Ethiopia
Malaria is a major public health problem in Ethiopia, accounting for a significant portion of outpatient visits and hospital admissions. Transmission is seasonal and varies based on altitude, climate, and rainfall patterns. The government has implemented various prevention and control strategies over time, including insecticide-treated bed nets, indoor residual spraying, and anti-malarial drug policies. While malaria morbidity and mortality have decreased in recent years due to these efforts, it remains a significant health issue, especially for rural agricultural communities.
Optimising Adult Vaccination in Europe
Vaccination rates among adults in Europe are lower than recommended levels despite evidence that vaccines prevent deadly diseases in older populations. To improve rates by 2020, efforts should focus on increasing vaccination among healthcare workers, empowering consumers with independent information on immunization, and promoting immunization as part of a cultural norm of healthy aging. Behavioral economics approaches could also help convince more adults to receive recommended vaccines.

Individuals can help by raising awareness on World Malaria Day and by advocating for better health and hygiene globally.
Maternal Health Care Availability In The Developing World
Maternal mortality rates are significantly higher in developing countries compared to industrialized nations, with 1 in 76 pregnancies in developing areas ending in death versus 1 in 8,000 in industrialized countries. One of the Millennium Development Goals aims to reduce maternal mortality by 75% by 2015 through improving access to family planning, antenatal care, and empowering women's control of their reproductive health. However, factors like cultural practices, travel times to hospitals, wait times to see doctors, and lack of healthcare resources limit access to care, especially in rural areas. While urban populations have closer proximity to care, poverty still prevents many urban women from receiving adequate maternal healthcare. Expanding healthcare resources and making care culturally acceptable and

Michel Dione presented on behavioral obstacles to vaccinations in livestock in sub-Saharan Africa. Small-scale livestock farmers in places like Mali have poor access to veterinary services and technologies due to poverty and inadequate distribution systems. Factors that influence vaccine adoption include awareness of benefits, cost, quality, and perceptions of vaccine side effects. Gender also plays a role, as women often manage small livestock but have less decision-making power. Farmers may not report livestock numbers due to taxation concerns or feel vaccines should cost less. Distrust of veterinarians and lack of policy enforcement can also reduce vaccination rates. Changing perceptions of disease risk and prioritizing farmers' concerns are important to increasing vaccine adoption.
Safe motherhood
Improve quality and increase access to family planning and maternal health care services
Educate couples to ensure they have the best chance for a wanted and safe pregnancy
Safe motherhood is one of the important components of Reproductive Health. It means ensuring that all women receive the care they need, to be safe and healthy throughout pregnancy and childbirth. It is the ability of a mother to have safe & healthy pregnancy & child birth.

Os cuidados de saúde prestados durante a gravidez salvaguardam o bem-estar da mãe e do feto e proporcionam um bom começo de vida aos bebês. Os custos financeiros de ter um bebê podem ser catastróficos, impedindo as mulheres grávidas de procurar serviços essenciais de saúde materna e colocando em risco a vida das mães e de seus filhos.
De acordo com a análise recentemente divulgada, estima-se que 5 milhões de famílias vivendo na África, Ásia, América Latina e Caribe incorrerão em grandes dificuldades financeiras a cada ano - ou gastos catastróficos em saúde - devido a ausência de cuidados pré-natal e parto. Os gastos com saúde são considerados grandes se excederem 40% dos gastos não essenciais, não alimentares, de um domicílio.

Children's growth up to age five is influenced more by nutrition, environment and health care than by genetics or ethnicity. The document states that factors like nutrition, environment and health care have a greater influence on children's development in the first five years than genetic or ethnic factors.
Food Security
This document discusses food security in Asia. It notes rising global food prices and increasing demand driven by population growth. Key challenges to ensuring food security in Asia include decreasing available farmland and water resources, as well as the effects of climate change on crop production. While the Green Revolution greatly increased food production, ongoing issues include environmental degradation and inequality. Moving forward, efforts are needed to strengthen social safety nets, promote sustainable agriculture and trade, invest in rural infrastructure, and develop new technologies and risk management strategies to ensure adequate food supply for Asia's growing population.

Women between the ages of 15-24, especially in developing countries, are disproportionately affected by HIV/AIDS. Lack of adequate food and nutrition weakens the immune system and increases susceptibility to infection, making treatment less effective. Africa accounts for about 60% of global HIV cases, predominantly in Sub-Saharan countries like Ethiopia, Nigeria, and South Africa. Women are more vulnerable to contracting HIV due to lack of sexual health education and biological factors. Ensuring access to sufficient nutrition is essential for HIV treatment to be effective and allow women to lead productive lives.
Safe Motherhood & Maternal Mortality.pptx
The document discusses the World Health Organization's 1987 Safe Motherhood Initiative to reduce maternal mortality. The initiative aimed to reduce maternal deaths by half by 2000 and extended this goal to 2015. It operates through government, non-governmental organizations and other groups to enhance women's health and lives. Nearly 600,000 women between 15-49 die every year from pregnancy complications, 99% occurring in developing countries. Ensuring safe motherhood involves increasing education, prenatal care, nutrition, assisted delivery, emergency services and postnatal care.
Student Presentation
This document discusses issues related to birth control access in developing countries. It outlines how lack of access relates to maternal health, overpopulation, unintended pregnancies, and more. Statistics show that over 200 million people worldwide want birth control but do not have access, leading to tens of millions of unwanted pregnancies and tens of thousands of deaths from unsafe abortions each year. The document also examines misconceptions about birth control and how improving access through education and stronger family planning programs could help address climate change by slowing population growth rates.

This document discusses a case report of a woman who suffered intestinal injury from an illegal abortion. The key points are:
1. The 28-year-old woman underwent an unsafe, illegal abortion by an untrained nurse, which perforated her uterus and injured her intestine, leading to sepsis.
2. She required an emergency laparotomy where a 2cm rent was found in her posterior uterine wall and faecal matter was leaking from her bowel. Her intestine was repaired and a loop ileostomy was performed.
3. Unsafe abortions frequently occur in developing countries due to lack of education, social stigma around abortion, and restrictive abortion laws. This can lead to serious complications like infection, hemor

It includes objectives to provide an overview of global maternal mortality trends, describe the Millennium Development Goals related to reproductive health, and identify causes and strategies to prevent maternal mortality. The agenda also involves interactive activities to define key terms and review what is known about the Millennium Development Goals.
Present fistula
Obstetric fistula is an abnormal opening between the vagina and bladder or rectum caused by prolonged obstructed labor without medical care. A study in Ethiopia found 96% of fistulas were caused by labor lasting over 3 days. Women in Ethiopia are at high risk due to cultural practices like early marriage and childbearing, nutritional deficiencies, and limited access to medical care during delivery. Obstetric fistula robs women of their health and social standing, leaving them isolated and living in poverty. International organizations and Ethiopian hospitals are working to prevent fistulas through improved maternal care and treat women who develop this condition.

Teenage pregnancy seminar
Teenage pregnancy is defined as a girl aged 13-19 becoming pregnant. In Malaysia, most first sexual encounters occur between ages 15-19, putting girls at risk of unwanted pregnancy, STDs, and long-term health issues. While the teenage birth and pregnancy rates in Malaysia have decreased in recent years, they remain a public health issue, especially among unmarried, low-income, and rural adolescents. Unwanted pregnancies often lead to abandoned babies and unsafe or illegal abortions, which can result in medical complications. Experts recommend increasing access to sexual education and family planning services to prevent unintended pregnancies and support services for teenage mothers and their children.

Maternal Death Presentation
Maternal mortality is a serious issue, with 600,000 pregnant women dying each year - one every minute. 98% of deaths occur in developing countries, with the majority in Asia and Africa. The main cause is hemorrhaging during or after childbirth. Only 34% of births in poor countries are attended by skilled healthcare professionals, as low as 6% in Ethiopia. Delays in recognizing and treating complications, reaching facilities, and receiving care contribute to the high mortality. Improving maternal health would benefit not only mothers and children, but also families and societies.

Maternal mortality is a serious issue, with 600,000 pregnant women dying each year - one every minute. 98% of deaths occur in developing countries, with 60% in Asia and 30% in Africa. The main causes are hemorrhaging during or after childbirth and giving birth without a skilled birth attendant. Only 34% of deliveries occur with a skilled birth attendant in poor countries, with even lower rates in places like Ethiopia, Chad, and Niger. Delays in recognizing and treating complications and delays in transfers to proper medical care often result from a lack of financial resources and poor access to healthcare.

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.
