The document discusses a biophotonic scanner that measures antioxidants and provides patients with a score to monitor their health. It promotes the scanner as a tool for motivating behavior change by allowing patients and doctors to track health metrics over time in response to lifestyle modifications or medical treatments. The document proposes a program for dentists to incorporate the scanner into their practices and become state leaders for an initiative to improve periodontal health through antioxidant screening and prevention recommendations.
Project Dental America is a preventive dental initiative intended to motivate and monitor patients in regards to periodontal disease and oral cancer. It features a state of the art antioxidant scanner proven more reliable than blood serum measurements... The Scanner is simple to use, painless, and only takes 30 seconds to produce a numerical value, i.e., 'score'.

Drinking just one 12-ounce soda a day may increase the risk of
Type 2 diabetes, a new study from Europe suggests.
In the study, people who drank a 12-ounce sugar-sweetened
soda daily were 18 percent more likely to develop Type 2
diabetes over a 16-year period compared with those who did
not consume soda. And people who drank two sodas daily were
18 percent more likely to have a stroke than those who drank
one; those who drank three sodas daily saw the same risk
increase compared with those who drank two, and so on.

The results held even after the researchers took into account
risk factors for Type 2 diabetes such as age and physical
activity levels, body mass index (BMI) and the total daily
calorie intake.
The findings agree with earlier studies in the United States,
which found daily soda consumption increased the risk of Type
2 diabetes by 25 percent.
However, the study found only an association, and cannot
prove soda consumption causes Type 2 diabetes. It's possible
other factors not accounted for by the study influenced the
disease risk. In addition, participants answered questions
about their diet just once at the study's start, and it's possible
they changed their diets over time, the researchers said.

The researchers analyzed information from about 12,000
people who developed Type 2 diabetes between 1991 and 2007,
and a randomly selected group of about 15,000 people, most of
whom did not develop diabetes. All participants were taking
part in a larger study looking into the interaction between diet,
environmental factors and the risk of cancer and chronic
diseases conducted in eight European countries.
People who drank one or more glasses of sugar-sweetened
soda a day were about 30 percent more likely to develop Type
2 diabetes than those who drank less than one glass a month.
Because the link between sugar-sweetened soda and Type 2
diabetes was independent of BMI (an indicator of obesity
level) and calorie intake, this finding suggests that other
factors, such as the spike in blood sugar people experience
when they drink soda, may play a role in the risk, the
researchers said.

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.

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.
