This presentation was on the prevalence of HIV/STDs in youth in a school system. I present research on the topic, relevant data, and suggested solutions.
This document describes work undertaken by NHS Kidney Care around young people with kidney disease, and the issues faced by their families and carers.The emergent themes have significant alignment with current NHS Improving Quality and NHS England national programmes, including Long Term Conditions, Experience of Care, Transition from Paediatric to Adult Services and Living Longer Lives.
Effective care coordination ranks high on the priority list of families of children with special health care needs, yet it remains an elusive goal for most. This webinar featured a parent's perspective, along with real-life examples from a provider and a payer on how to develop effective local care coordination systems. The webinar, which drew close to 400 registrants from across the US, was designed as a first step in building a national movement to promote care coordination policies and payment options that better serve children, families, and care providers.

Improving Childhood Development in HIV Exposed Children in ZimbabweWorldEd
Despite an increasing recognition of the importance of early childhood development, over 200 million children in developing countries are unable to achieve their full developmental potential.
To intervene at this important juncture in a child’s life, the Bantwana Initiative of World Education (Bantwana) is implementing an Early Childhood Stimulation (ECS) program in Zimbabwe, a community-based early childhood development intervention in pediatric HIV care and treatment program. The intervention includes three elements: 1) an early childhood stimulation parenting program, 2) an internal savings and lending scheme for caregivers, and 3) case management home visits by conducted by trained community case workers. This comprehensive, community-based program aims to improve early childhood development, and HIV retention and adherence outcomes among HIV-exposed and infected children aged 0-2 years. Furthermore, it improves adherence and retention in care and treatment for the mothers of these HIV-exposed children, while equipping them with important parenting knowledge and skills to better nurture their children. These critical educational parenting sessions help increase early childhood development outcomes for HIV exposed children, as well as improve retention and adherence on HIV care and treatment for the mother-baby pairs. Together, the increased parenting skills, economic resilience, and community case worker follow up aim to improve the future of this particularly-vulnerable group of children, intervening at an essential point in their developmental growth.

New Directions in Targeted Therapeutic Approaches for Older Adults With Mantl...i3 Health
i3 Health is pleased to make the speaker slides from this activity available for use as a non-accredited self-study or teaching resource.
This slide deck presented by Dr. Kami Maddocks, Professor-Clinical in the Division of Hematology and
Associate Division Director for Ambulatory Operations
The Ohio State University Comprehensive Cancer Center, will provide insight into new directions in targeted therapeutic approaches for older adults with mantle cell lymphoma.
STATEMENT OF NEED
Mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) is a rare, aggressive B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) accounting for 5% to 7% of all lymphomas. Its prognosis ranges from indolent disease that does not require treatment for years to very aggressive disease, which is associated with poor survival (Silkenstedt et al, 2021). Typically, MCL is diagnosed at advanced stage and in older patients who cannot tolerate intensive therapy (NCCN, 2022). Although recent advances have slightly increased remission rates, recurrence and relapse remain very common, leading to a median overall survival between 3 and 6 years (LLS, 2021). Though there are several effective options, progress is still needed towards establishing an accepted frontline approach for MCL (Castellino et al, 2022). Treatment selection and management of MCL are complicated by the heterogeneity of prognosis, advanced age and comorbidities of patients, and lack of an established standard approach for treatment, making it vital that clinicians be familiar with the latest research and advances in this area. In this activity chaired by Michael Wang, MD, Professor in the Department of Lymphoma & Myeloma at MD Anderson Cancer Center, expert faculty will discuss prognostic factors informing treatment, the promising results of recent trials in new therapeutic approaches, and the implications of treatment resistance in therapeutic selection for MCL.
Target Audience
Hematology/oncology fellows, attending faculty, and other health care professionals involved in the treatment of patients with mantle cell lymphoma (MCL).
Learning Objectives
1.) Identify clinical and biological prognostic factors that can guide treatment decision making for older adults with MCL
2.) Evaluate emerging data on targeted therapeutic approaches for treatment-naive and relapsed/refractory MCL and their applicability to older adults
3.) Assess mechanisms of resistance to targeted therapies for MCL and their implications for treatment selection

21. ConclusionsConclusions
Vulnerable children have a right to health and wellbeing
services to achieve their potential
The window of opportunity for early identification and
intervention is short, but
The health sector in CEE/CIS
Is in frequent contact with pregnant women, infants, and young children
Has the opportunity to prevent disabilities and delays and support good
parenting
Can identify risk and intervene early to improve outcomes for children
There are many effective and efficient opportunities to
improve the Continuum of Health Care and improve
collaboration with other sectors
22. “We are guilty of many errors and many
faults, but our worst crime is abandoning
the children, neglecting the fountain of life.
Many of the things we need can wait. The
child cannot. Right now is the time his
bones are being formed, his blood is
being made, and his senses are being
developed. To him we cannot answer
‘Tomorrow’, his name is today.”
- Gabriela Mistral
Thank you for your
attention
Editor's Notes
Health sector is the only public sector with direct access and greatest reach to children and there families during pregnancy, birth and early childhood (especially 0-3 years) through clinical services and home visitation.
(i.e.: cognition, communication, behavior, social interaction, motor and sensory abilities, and adaptive skill s)
Center is in close collaboration with Central Children’s Hospital’s different divisions such as genetics, diagnostic, endocrinology and etc.
Could you make the program more alive by providing two fictional, but typical cases (how newborn A is identified in the maternity and then assessed and services provided, and infant B referred by the parent or pediatrician…), maybe one slide each for each case.
