Health promotion through collaboration presentation kelly klarichKelly J. Klarich
Healthcare can only go so far in controlling the health of a patient or population due to social, economic, environmental and behavioral determinants such as economic stability, education, food sources, environmental impacts and the individual choices people make with respect to their health. As a result of these influences not in the control of the healthcare system is it realistic to think that healthcare organizations can impact the over-all health of a population group on their own? If you are interesting in learning more about the impacts of social determinants on health or how you can get involved in improving the health of American's, take a look at the attached presentation or visit http://www.healthypeople.gov/.
We all have a part to play in lowering spending on medical services and promoting health. The behavioral choices we make and the social influences impacting health must be understood and addressed if we are to improve the overall health of the U.S.

The document recommends approaches like policy changes, education initiatives, and a shift toward health promotion activities to engage these broader determinants of health.
This document provides an overview of health impact assessments (HIAs). It defines HIAs as systematic processes that use data and stakeholder input to determine how policies may affect population health. The document outlines the goals of HIAs in promoting health, equity and evidence-based decision making. It also describes the typical phases of conducting an HIA including screening, scoping, assessment, recommendations and evaluation. Resources for learning more about HIAs are provided.
The Community Health Assessment provides an overview of community health issues in Jackson County, Oregon based on a review of data from 2013. It finds that while Jackson County saw population growth from 2002-2008, it experienced an outmigration of younger residents from 2008-2010 due to job losses. At the same time, the elderly population increased, with 18.8% of residents over 65 years old in 2012. The assessment identifies chronic diseases, mental health, addictions, and access to care as key health issues. It incorporates input from community focus groups and interviews to understand resident perspectives on local health priorities and strengths of the healthcare system.
This document summarizes the Vision North 2010-2015 strategic planning process for the Clay-Platte County region. It describes how multiple stakeholders including local public health departments, hospitals, schools, and community organizations came together to identify key priorities and develop strategies. Through a facilitated process, they engaged the community and assessed needs to select five priority areas: community wellness, education, economic development, transportation/infrastructure, and quality of life. The local health departments played a key role by providing funding, participation on the community wellness committee, and staff support. Lessons learned include starting earlier, engaging funders, and focusing health data more locally.
Hia presentation for health disparities group revisedDanielle Aloia
A health impact assessment is a systematic process that evaluates the potential effects of proposed policies, programs, or projects on the health of populations and the distribution of effects within populations. It involves screening, scoping, assessment, recommendations, and monitoring/evaluation steps. Health impact assessments aim to promote health equity by authentically engaging stakeholders, evaluating impacts on vulnerable groups, identifying recommendations to maximize health benefits for those facing health disparities, and communicating results in culturally appropriate ways. Examples provided assessed proposed legislation to protect domestic workers in California, revisions to Minnesota school siting guidelines, and changes to a Massachusetts housing assistance program. Emerging issues discussed opportunities to further health equity as well as challenges regarding timing, stakeholders, evidence, and legal frameworks.
Community members and stakeholders in North Carolina provided perspectives on health equity as part of a statewide healthy environments initiative. Through focus groups and interviews, they discussed three strategies - farmers markets, shared outdoor spaces, and smoke-free housing. Two key themes emerged. First, "access" - how easy it is for communities to use resources. Factors like location, cost, and safety can create barriers. Second, "community fit" - whether a strategy aligns with community values and norms. Suggestions to improve equity focused on transportation, market hours, safety, and involving both smokers and nonsmokers in policy decisions. The views of community members and stakeholders can help shape culturally-relevant strategies to promote health and prevent chronic diseases

Local Advanced Lung Cancer: Artificial Intelligence, Synergetics, Complex Sys...Oleg Kshivets
Overall life span (LS) was 1671.7±1721.6 days and cumulative 5YS reached 62.4%, 10 years – 50.4%, 20 years – 44.6%. 94 LCP lived more than 5 years without cancer (LS=2958.6±1723.6 days), 22 – more than 10 years (LS=5571±1841.8 days). 67 LCP died because of LC (LS=471.9±344 days). AT significantly improved 5YS (68% vs. 53.7%) (P=0.028 by log-rank test). Cox modeling displayed that 5YS of LCP significantly depended on: N0-N12, T3-4, blood cell circuit, cell ratio factors (ratio between cancer cells-CC and blood cells subpopulations), LC cell dynamics, recalcification time, heparin tolerance, prothrombin index, protein, AT, procedure type (P=0.000-0.031). Neural networks, genetic algorithm selection and bootstrap simulation revealed relationships between 5YS and N0-12 (rank=1), thrombocytes/CC (rank=2), segmented neutrophils/CC (3), eosinophils/CC (4), erythrocytes/CC (5), healthy cells/CC (6), lymphocytes/CC (7), stick neutrophils/CC (8), leucocytes/CC (9), monocytes/CC (10). Correct prediction of 5YS was 100% by neural networks computing (error=0.000; area under ROC curve=1.0).
Cell Therapy Expansion and Challenges in Autoimmune DiseaseHealth Advances
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.

CHBRP’S WORKING DEFINITION
• Social determinants of health are conditions in which
people are born, grow, live, work, learn, and age.
These social determinants of health (economic
factors, social factors, education, physical
environment) are shaped by the distribution of
money, power, and resources and are impacted by
policy.
