Please Support The Chase After a Cure for Childhood CancerGoing Places, Inc
Chase After a Cure (CAAC) was started in 2009 by Summerville, S.C., resident Whitney Ringler and her family after her son, Chase, was given a 30 percent chance of survival after being diagnosed with Stage 4 neuroblastoma, a cancer of the nerve tissue of the sympathetic nervous system. Chase survived this aggressive form of cancer and now his family works tirelessly on behalf of childhood cancer research.
CAAC raises awareness about childhood cancer, specifically neuroblastoma, and funds childhood cancer research at the Medical University of South Carolina Children’s Hospital.
Cancer is the No. 1 cause of disease-related death among children. About 13,500 children between birth and age 19 are diagnosed with cancer each year. Just at the Medical University of South Carolina, about 70 children are diagnosed with pediatric cancer annually.
Compared to adult cancer, childhood cancers are rare. Even though childhood cancer incidence rates continue to increase slightly each year, they still represent less than 1 percent of all new cancer diagnoses. That means funding for childhood cancer research is limited. In particular, neuroblastoma – which has one of the lowest survival rates – receives very little attention because the population base with this form of cancer isn’t profitable enough for pharmaceutical companies to develop new treatments.
While childhood cancer may impact a smaller population, it impacts the young lives of those diagnosed at 100 percent. Please help support Chase After a Cure. www.chaseafteracure.com/donate

World Cancer Day, established by the Union for International Cancer Control (UICC) in 2000, is observed every year on February 4th. Over 10 million people die each year from cancer, more than HIV/AIDS, malaria, and tuberculosis combined. This makes cancer a leading cause of death with a global impact; cancer is not specific to any one geographic region or any one demographic.

Module 8: Public Health Genetics: Screening Programs and Individual Testing/Counseling

Case Study 2: Ethical Implications of a Decision on MCADD Screening of
Newborns
As Director of the State Health Department, John Jamison has responsibility for the state’s Newborn
Screening Program, which currently screens every infant born in the state for six disorders, including
phenylketonuria, hypothyroidism, and hemoglobinopathies. The state’s newborn screening program has
had a quiet and respected history in the state up until now, unlike some other health department
programs, such as the state cancer registry that was a recent focus of legislative hearings and a public
outcry over privacy concerns.
The nurse practitioner who directs the newborn screening program, Sally Scott, has just reported that
pressure is building for the addition of new testing for genetic disorders to the battery of required state
screenings for newborns. Sally says pressure is coming from many sources, including individual parents,
powerful advocacy groups within the state, and even some physicians. A coalition of these interested
parties has just met with her and requested the state health department’s support for a bill to add a test
for one particular disorder this legislative session – the test for Medium Chain Acyl-CoA
Dehydrogenase Deficiency (MCADD). The group intends to issue a press release within two or three
days and plans to publicize whether the state health department is supportive of the test.
Sally believes the test for MCADD is likely to garner more attention and support from the public and
the press than other newborn screening tests, because MCADD increasingly has been mentioned as a
potential cause of Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (SIDS).
Sally met with Jamison yesterday for guidance. She warned him that MCADD is just the latest, in what
she believes is becoming a continuing and growing problem for the state health department regarding
genetic screening for newborns. As director of newborn screening for the last five years, she has been
receiving frequent inquiries about the possibility of expanded newborn genetic screening, both for
particular disorders and for predisposing conditions.
Jamison asked Sally to get back to him today with as much relevant material as she can quickly find, so
that they can review the data and discuss the options with the department’s epidemiologist, health
policy analyst, and the Director of the Division of Maternal and Child Health.
At the meeting Sally presents the following information.
The State legislature, with guidance from the health department when appropriate, has the authority to
establish newborn screening policies, including deciding which disorders should be included among the
battery of newborn screening tests.
Currently parental consent is not required for the newborn screening tests in the state. All newborn
screening tests are conducted by the state lab, which re ...

The life, medical, and health sciences represent a broad array of disciplines that generally involve the biology and health of people, plants, and animals. These fields, especially when the provision of medical care is included, make up an important and growing part of Michigan’s economy. Approximately 533,000 Michiganders were employed in one of these sectors in 2015, representing approximately one in eight jobs. Between 2011 and 2015, the sector added 21,000 jobs, with growth of 4.2 percent. While this growth is slower than the overall economy during this period, this slower growth is misleading. Michigan’s economy is still recovering from the sharp employment declines that occurred in the 2000s, a decline that the life, medical, and health sciences did not experience. Compared to its 2000 level, employment in the life, medical and health sciences is up 18.9 percent, while overall Michigan employment is still down 9.3 percent.1 The ability of the sector to grow while the rest of Michigan’s economy was contracting represents an important stabilizing force for the economy.

The prostate is an exocrine gland of the male mammalian reproductive system
It is a walnut-sized gland that forms part of the male reproductive system and is located in front of the rectum and just below the urinary bladder
Function is to store and secrete a clear, slightly alkaline fluid that constitutes 10-30% of the volume of the seminal fluid that along with the spermatozoa, constitutes semen
A healthy human prostate measures (4cm-vertical, by 3cm-horizontal, 2cm ant-post ).
It surrounds the urethra just below the urinary bladder. It has anterior, median, posterior and two lateral lobes
It’s work is regulated by androgens which are responsible for male sex characteristics
Generalised disease of the prostate due to hormonal derangement which leads to non malignant enlargement of the gland (increase in the number of epithelial cells and stromal tissue)to cause compression of the urethra leading to symptoms (LUTS
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!
