Early Childhood Risk and Obesity in Preschool-age Children via Salivary Testing UCLA CTSI
Principal Investigators: Francisco Ramos-Gomez (UCLA) and Robert Jones (University of Minnesota)
UCLA CTSI and University of Minnesota Cross-Institutional Award Projects
The overall goal of our study is to develop an integrated care plan that effectively addresses the shared risk factors of early childhood dental decay, early childhood cavities (ECC) and obesity. It encourages parents of disadvantaged and of minority backgrounds to adopt broad self-management goals and overall comprehensive health-promoting habits. There is a pressing need for community-based participatory early intervention approaches to prevent both early childhood dental decay and obesity at a younger age. Within the recent healthcare environment, oral health (dentistry) may play an important role within the whole community approach to obesity prevention as an entry point for discussing diet and nutrition early on. Some key reasons for the importance of oral health integration into obesity prevention is that children’s oral health diseases share key risk factors with early obesity. In our study, the Infant Oral health visit promotes dietary guidance early in childhood, and oral health promotion is done in a culturally manner, which we use to discuss other broad health-promoting habits. Our immediate goal utilizes a university and community-based team to improve the ability to predict future dental decay in children and integrate oral health risk assessment with broad health-promoting habits that may one day prevent obesity in the key early years of the child development.

The initial Global Health Initiative was launched by Kofi Annan at the annual meeting of the World Economic Forumin 2002. Annan stated that the GHI's mission was to engage businesses in public-private partnerships to tackle HIV/AIDS, tuberculosis, malaria, and health systems.[citation needed]
Examples of GHIs are the President's Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (PEPFAR), the Global Fund to Fight AIDS, Tuberculosis and Malaria (Global Fund), and the World Bank's[citation needed]
PEPFAR – an initiative established in 2003 by the Bush Administration – and PEPFAR II (PEPFAR's successor in 2009 under the Obama Administration[2]) are bilateral agreements between the United States and a recipient of its development aid for HIV/AIDS – typically an international non-government organisation INGO or a recipient country's government. The Global Fund, established in 2002, and the GAVI Alliance, launched in 2000, are public-private partnerships that raise and disburse funds to treat AIDS, Tuberculosis and Malaria, and for immunization and vaccines. The World Bank is an International financial institution. It is the largest source of funding for HIV/AIDS within the United Nations system and has a portfolio of HIV/AIDS programmes dating back to 1989.[3] In 2000, the Bank launched the first phase of its response to HIV/AIDS in Sub-Saharan Africa – the Multi-Country AIDS Program (MAP). This came to an end in 2006 when a second phase – Agenda for Action 2007-11 – came into effect.[4]
Functions
In terms of their institutional structure, GHIs have little in common with each other. In terms of their function – specifically their ability to raise and disburse funds, provide resources and coordinate and/or implement disease control in multiple countries – GHIs share some common ground, even if the mechanisms through which each of these functions is performed are different.[5]
Funding
A graph showing financial commitments by donors to GAVI, PEPFAR, MAP and the Global Fund
Figure 1: Donor commitments to GHIs[6]
Tracking funding from GHIs poses challenges.[7] However, it is possible to determine the amounts of funding GHIs commit and disburse from sources such as the OECD CRS online database, as well as data provided by individual GHIs (Figure 1).
Since 1989, the World Bank has committed approximately US$4.2bn in loans and credits for programs, and has disbursed US$3.1bn. Of this total, the Bank's MAP has committed US$1.9bn since 2000. Through bilateral contributions to HIV/AIDS and Tuberculosis programmes and donations to the Global Fund, PEPFAR has donated approximately US$25.6bn since 2003. In July 2008, the U.S. Senate re-authorised a further US$48 bn over five years for PEPFAR II, of which US$6.7bn has been requested for FY 2010. During the period 2001–2010, donors have pledged US$21.1bn to the Global Fund, of which US$15.8bn has been paid by donors to the Fund. Gavi has approved US$3.7bn for the period 2000-2015[8]

Summary of Clinical Issue (200-250 words):
Childhood obesity is one of the problems that affect the United States and other developed economies. Obesity among children and youths is widely recognized as an issue that generates a lot of adverse health impacts. For instance, childhood obesity is a major indicator of future mental and physical health problems. In spite of the highest rates of childhood obesity in the country in the last three decades, obesity has been linked to other more serious health problems such as cardiovascular diseases and diabetes. As nurses and other health professionals continue to grapple with this problem, there are still no clear treatment approaches. Health professionals usually do not have a comprehensive guideline on where to manage the nearly one-third of their populations who present the medical care with obesity that coexists with other medical conditions and problems. Numerous treatment models have been proposed to address this rising public health concern. These approaches often include use of the traditional interventions such as pharmacological interventions. However, overemphasis on one treatment intervention may fail to generate the desired objectives. While the traditional strategies to obesity prevention and management have placed emphasis on medications, wider attention to other dimensions of treatment is necessary. Such treatment interventions may include the multi-tiered or holistic strategies that incorporate both pharmacological and non-pharmacological interventions. For instance, a wider focus should incorporate practices such as assessing the mental health impacts of obesity on the patients. Thus, a public health multi-tiered .

Obesity in Wayne County, Michigan
children and adults are vulnerable populations
obese children and adults have low-income
45.9% of Wayne County population is obese (Teixeira et al., 2015)
obesity is linked to overweight, heart disease
Figure 1.0. Bar graph showing income distribution of counties
Source: https://www.pittcountync.gov/Archive/ViewFile/Item/140
Obesity in Wayne Count is a public health problem, especially among children and adults. Children aged 10 to 17 and adults with over 20 years are vulnerable to obesity. Children and adults with obesity make 45.9% of the total population, and most of them come from low-income populations where health disparity is a prevalent issue. Health determinants in Wayne County include education, poverty, income, housing, and discrimination (Teixeira et al., 2015). The obese population does not have access to clean water and live in slums, where air pollution is dominant. More than 17% of adults in Wayne County lack health insurance coverage. Blacks are poorer compared to their white counterparts and have increased chances of having obesity.

Results comprehensive assessment
poor diet, lack of physical activity
Wayne County ranks position 5th in Michigan (Tholen et al., 2019)
beaches, hiking trails, bike paths remain underutilized
obesity leading factor is unhealthy eating habit
the Michigan Department of Community Health (MDCH)
Obesity is prevalent as a result of poor eating habits and lack of physical activity such as walking, soccer-playing, climbing the stairs, and gardening. Most of the roads are tarmacked, and residents of Wayne Count prefer driving than walking. These residents deny themselves an opportunity for physical activity, thus becoming vulnerable to overweight. Wayne County is among the topmost counties of Michigan where obesity among children and adults is a health problem; it is ranked 5th position (Tholen et al., 2019). Wayne County is a healthy county, but most of the resources for improving physical fitness, such as hike trails, bike paths, and beaches, remain unutilized. The primary obesity leading factor is unhealthy eating, where people do not take fruits and vegetables to control obesity. Collaboration with MDCH aids the approximation of the number of obese children and adults in Wayne County.

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!

Couples presenting to the infertility clinic- Do they really have infertility...Sujoy Dasgupta
Dr Sujoy Dasgupta presented the study on "Couples presenting to the infertility clinic- Do they really have infertility? – The unexplored stories of non-consummation" in the 13th Congress of the Asia Pacific Initiative on Reproduction (ASPIRE 2024) at Manila on 24 May, 2024.
Ethanol (CH3CH2OH), or beverage alcohol, is a two-carbon alcohol
that is rapidly distributed in the body and brain. Ethanol alters many
neurochemical systems and has rewarding and addictive properties. It
is the oldest recreational drug and likely contributes to more morbidity,
mortality, and public health costs than all illicit drugs combined. The
5th edition of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders
(DSM-5) integrates alcohol abuse and alcohol dependence into a single
disorder called alcohol use disorder (AUD), with mild, moderate,
and severe subclassifications (American Psychiatric Association, 2013).
In the DSM-5, all types of substance abuse and dependence have been
combined into a single substance use disorder (SUD) on a continuum
from mild to severe. A diagnosis of AUD requires that at least two of
the 11 DSM-5 behaviors be present within a 12-month period (mild
AUD: 2–3 criteria; moderate AUD: 4–5 criteria; severe AUD: 6–11 criteria).
The four main behavioral effects of AUD are impaired control over
drinking, negative social consequences, risky use, and altered physiological
effects (tolerance, withdrawal). This chapter presents an overview
of the prevalence and harmful consequences of AUD in the U.S.,
the systemic nature of the disease, neurocircuitry and stages of AUD,
comorbidities, fetal alcohol spectrum disorders, genetic risk factors, and
pharmacotherapies for AUD.
